The departure ceremony of the expedition. After the participants were gathered in front of the royal castle and received a thankful word from the king, he left to hear the speech of the first prince in command, Eurius. The speech is almost the same as at the dinner party.
Then he strolled from the royal castle to the main gate of the city like a parade.
While the citizens were sending cheers to the prince and the Virgin, when they saw Seiichiro, it turned out to be rough.
Seiichiro looked at it with his eyes (usually) like a dead fish, losing his mind.
In the first place, this has been going on since before we left at Plaza del Castle.
When the departure ceremony is over and it's time to leave.
The prince and the Virgin go to a luxurious carriage, and most court magicians and civilian officers in positions are intermediate carriages… but the carriage of the rider used by the citizens is a carriage with little shaking… The plain civilian, prince and Virgin servants, cooks, and doctors go to a simple carriage underneath. And the knight climbed onto his horse.
Seiichiro also had a position, so when I tried to go to the intermediate carriage, I heard a voice from behind.
"Seiichiro, you come this way."
Yes?
Seiichiro came to work with me this morning, and the beautiful Third Knight commander, who spread the ripples around, called out with his natural face.
Seiichiro kicked the tatami and cobbled like he was in a rush, grabbed the sleeves of Seiichiro's brand new outfit he wore this morning, and returned to the horse again.
Seiichiro had prepared clothes for the expedition, but yesterday, Alesh broke out of rage and changed the set.
"Ah, Alesh? The civilian... are you going to put the deputy accountant on the horse?
While the surroundings were stunned, Ordzif, who was closest to Alesh from both the length of the relationship and the standpoint, tended to hesitate to ask, but Alesh nodded naturally without changing his expression.
"This man is not immune to magic and will die if he doesn't keep an eye on it. I'm in charge."
"Well, no, wouldn't it be better if the carriage was more and more the same as the doctor?
"No. This man has many other troubling traits. I'm the only one who can manage this all the time.
It was an order from the First Prince to take him on an expedition. That's what I'd do if I didn't die. That's why I'm in charge. "
Seiichiro leaned his head yesterday because he couldn't be by Alesh's side during the expedition.
Besides, along the way, I wanted to talk to the court magicians, starting with Isto, and above all, Seiichiro never rode a horse. I have heard that horseback riding by unfamiliar people places a considerable burden on the body. I can't do that for almost six days.
"Knight Indrake Commander. By the way, I've never been on a horse.
As you know, a fragile body can't withstand a long journey. "
I called her by her family name and title, and Alesh's eyes moved in a bad mood, but I want you to give me a break because it is in front of the public.
"... no problem. I will also continue to recover."
In other words, while applying the magic of Boundary and Restoration all the time, I will closely familiarize myself with the magic.
No, but what about that...
I think Alesh's behavior has escalated in the past few days, but should I consider the Magic Forest dangerous...?
To Seiichiro, who worried about his safety and dignity, Alesh took out the words and the paper that he had prepared.
"It's a statement of the Knights Expenses. Read it now."
"Thank you for your help."
The horse was even higher than I had imagined and had a sense of fear in conjunction with the unstable scaffolding, but the back and feet were also tightly fixed by the Alesh crossing behind.
"Now, are two big men okay on board?
I feel sorry for the horse, which is black and hyena as if it were combined with Alesh's costume, but Alesh denied it with a low beauty voice from behind.
"No problem. Diana could run faster than any horse, even if she had a sword and shield in her armor."
It seems that the horse's name is Diana. Was it a female?
I still think that fatigue will accumulate, but I think the area is also solved by the wonderful healing magic of the Elite Magic Knight.
"I want to ride a horse, too."
"The Virgin is staying in a safe carriage."
Seiichiro, who was playing tandem to be hugged behind by Alesh, heard Yu Ai raise his voice, but was forgiven by the surroundings.
That's why Seiichiro was exposed until he left the main gate of the city.
I walked through the gate and finally got permission to read the documents, so I rolled up the documents that were given to me.
I didn't care that the instant shake was concentrated on the documents.
"... this statement is better for the Knights?
No, I made it.
"Eh?"
"What's the reaction?... is there something wrong?"
"No..."
Rather, it was a well-organized and easy-to-read document.
This wasn't supposed to be miscellaneous. Alesh?
I've had his life saved many times, and now I've reconfirmed it.
"... what? If you have something to say, say it."
Seiichiro replied without worrying about the breath and voice coming from behind her ear, rather than saying that she was in a bad mood.
"No, it's a very easy to see document.
What does this cost of repairs and replenishments mean?
"Oh, that's..."
Whatever it is, it is gratifying to make it easier for us to move forward with our work.
Along with Alesh, who was able to make all these documents along the way, Seiichiro had a chance to learn more about the Knights' finances.

The town that arrived on the first day was small compared to King's City, but it was a gorgeous town based on red bricks.
Arrived before dusk, with positions including Yurius, Yuai and his servants Aresh… Of course, Seiichiro was also invited to the residence of the lord who ruled the town, and most of the other knights and civilians were supposed to stay in the town lodging.
Seiichiro, who was finally alone, was slowly stretching out his firm body.
After a long horse ride, Alesh helped me recover, but he was still wearing it. Specifically, my crotch and flank hurt.
This is definitely a muscle ache.
Horseback riding the next day is terrifying, but even more terrifying is the delay in muscle pain. In that case, it would be safer to have pain tomorrow.
"Well,"
Seiichiro left the given room while managing to move his uncomfortable body.
I'm asking civilians who don't hold positions to interview the town for air damage.
Seiichiro instructed me to prepare a lot for when I showed my difficulty, but it seemed that the Alesh and Alex were effective this morning, and everyone honestly understood.
Seiichiro, who had been working on the move, did not notice that the civilians were secretly pulling into the posture.
Aim for another room on the same floor.
Concon, even a modest knock doesn't answer. I saw you enter the room earlier, so you can't be gone. Knock hard again.
"Huh?
Seiichiro smiled tirelessly at the Isto of the court magic division deputy manager, who opened the door with a carefree voice.
The conversation with Isto was a little bony, but basically honest and loyal to desire. There are many people who have come to work with hobbies of this type.
After the errands had ended earlier than expected, Seiichiro left Isto's room and went down the stairs of the Mansion to meet the civilians who had been sent to the interview.
Just like the gorgeous city, it's a colorful, yet undeterred, tasteful mansion.
I did read in a book that this territory had a coal mine and that jewellery was famous.
There's still time for a meeting with the civilians, and it might be a good idea to take a closer look around town. If I don't get home by dinner, Alesh will tell me a lot.
"Kondo-san"
I was thinking about that, so I was a little delayed in responding.
Turning to the lights of the downstairs dance floor, Yu Ai, who had been talking for a long time, waved with a smile and a small hand.
Nothing is going as planned.
