Monster no Goshujin-sama

07. Unexpected encounters

Seven.

It was three days later that we reached Diospiro as we went through the villages.

Diospiro is a town with a population of about two thousand, and this is not so big as the size of the town.

However, the defenses of the town surrounded by stone walls were quite thick because of the fact that it was a trading post within Akel.

It seems that the Royal Army is also stationed in defense of the town, and he was also seen as a soldier dressed in matching gear.

When something goes wrong in the neighboring villages, we're talking about splitting up our forces from here and heading to the rescue.

The streets that have been used so far have remained the main streets of the town.

On the left and right side of the street were mainly two-story wooden houses lined up.

Like Serratta and others, the people who originally asked for safety around where the fort was, didn't create the town, I guess it was a town where the lodging town along the street grew to be.

The streets that bisect the town remain connected to Ebenacea, the capital of Akel.

The pioneering village of Silan's hometown is that way too.

Either way, the purpose of this time I've come here is to get the demon stone I need to move my car.

I just wanted to get my purpose done as quickly as possible and get back to the Lillies.

"First of all, the inn."

Siran, who said so, had his gaze gathered from around him.

How many times has this been in Akel to impress me that the Knights of the Alliance is really popular?

If I had brought it on, I might be called out and I wouldn't be able to move.

Silan slipped through the street in a crisp foothold in front of him.

Quickly find the sign for the inn you were introduced to in the village you stopped by on the way.

"Right here."

We went into the lodging room about her crouch that knocked at the door.

Reception on the front. On the left hand side is a dining room, with several guests eating and drinking.

There was a middle-aged, fat man sitting at the reception who I thought was the master of the inn.

And before that.

There, one boy stood.

- I guess this is exactly what you mean by accidental hitting.

"Am I?"

Hearing the door open, the boy looked back indulgently and raised his voice in surprise.

He was a dark-haired, dark-eyed, tall boy.

A slightly more dangerous face looks at this one.

Naturally, my legs were clumped.

It's not that my legs are dull from staring at me.

Though dressed in a different world-style costume, no matter how he saw it, the boy had no human face in this world.

……

Nature and my body were stretched to unexpected encounters.

Nevertheless, I still don't know.

Calm down, I told myself.

Given my own false identity as a grace blood clan, it is also possible that only the Japanese can see him as a real grace blood clan...

"Why is there such a thing as a metastasizer other than me?

... the idea was denied by the boy's blurry twinkling voice.

That still looks like the same metastasizer as me.

And the question was the same again.

How can there be any metastasizers here other than us?

……

From the boy, he has a strong eye.

It was a less favorable gaze.

Rose and Silan, who saw it, were both in a state of collision, although it was the weapons that didn't pull out.

The stare was a few seconds short.

"Customer......?

The innkeeper raises a voice of confusion.

Then, the boy distracted himself from this one.

"... nothing. The stay is extended by a week. That was an advance."

When the boy took the coin out of the leather bag, he placed it on the reception desk.

And as if he hadn't seen us, he left the reception and headed to the stairs.

"I don't know, it's none of my business."

I heard a troublesome solitaire.

The sound of ascending the stairs drifts away.

I didn't have time to speak up, nor did I have a reason to dare call it off.

I looked up at the stairs the boy had left, feeling as though I had been caught in the rain.

"Master, that is still..."

I made sure the boy left, and Rose called out in a tense manner.

I exhaled my breath.

"Oh. Sounds like it."

Metastases other than us.

That, too, is probably cheesy, given the signs of heavy magic I felt at the moment I alerted this one.

I couldn't help but be vigilant.

Nevertheless......

He didn't seem interested in this one.

It wasn't hostile to us that we were on the top of the Buddha, either, but that looked vegan.

From that attitude, I felt a willingness to avoid trouble.

The stance itself is not much different from mine.

"What will you do, Takahiro?

Silan asks.

"Right..."

From Iino, we hear that the expedition that reached Fort Chile is headed towards the Imperial capital in the Empire.

Yet why is there a metastasizer with cheats other than me in Akel, not in the Empire?

Speaking of which I don't care, I lie.

But if you pry poorly, you could end up with a snake.

"... if we can decide not to interfere with each other, that won't matter"

Even I don't want to get involved as much as possible with metastasizers other than myself.

You won't need to do anything from here any more than they're harmless here.

"Got it. Shall we finish the accommodation process?"

"Right."

An earlier boy came down the stairs while he was interacting with the master of the inn, even though he was mistaken for his relationship with Kato by way of example.

Just a glance at this one, he left the lodging room intact.

Apparently, he's not interested in us.

For once, I spoke to the master of the inn, and the boy seemed to falsely identify himself as one of our gracious blood clans.

He seems to be taking two people with him.

You were talking about not being a grace bloodline - in other words, not a metastasizer.

The information obtained was about that.

If you're an expedition, you shouldn't have to fake your identity.

I hear from Iino that there are leavers from the expedition, but even if the boy earlier is one of them, it feels a little unnatural to be in Akel before us.

Nevertheless, it is unlikely that we will know any more.

Besides, I had other things to do.

When we arrived at the inn, Silan took us away from the inn.

On our way, it was an army facility.

The army in this town says they know Syran, who was originally with him in the Knights.

Silan's story says that knights who worked for the Allied Knights are often invited to the army as guides when they leave the Knights and return to the country.

To ask soldiers in the army to share the experience of the knights who have fought in this world's worst demonic realm: the Tree Sea.

They also have the role of recommending prospective soldiers to knights.

That one of them was also here in Diospiro.

By relying on him first, we're going to get a car in this town.

The army facility we reached was a sturdy stone building.

Something tells me that these buildings can also be shelters.

"Oh, Silan. Long time no see."

The young man, who named him Adolph, broke his face when he saw Silan's face.

He was a man with a low back length but a well trained body.

However, my left arm was missing from the ground up.

I guess this is why I quit the Knights.

We were welcomed into a room in a stone building.

"Well, the Knights do that..."

Adolphe, an official of the Knights, was informed of the fact that Siran also did not cover up the raid on Fort Chile.

Although I lay low about Silan becoming an undead monster and about my inherent abilities as a transferee, I told him that there had been great damage to the Knights and that the captain had been detained by the Macrolin Border Uncle.

Adolf, holding his forehead with one hand, had a sinking face.

To him, it's about the fellows who fought with their backs in their hands.

I could only imagine the heartache, including about the captain.

"Thanks for talking to me, Silan"

After a while, he shook for the first time.

You changed your mind, there was a smile on your mouth that cared more about this one.

"I see what's going on. Jen, who protected all of the Knights... I will spare the cooperation that I can do if it helps the brave."

"Thank you, Adolph"

"What? You must have had a rough time."

Adolf waved for the first time.

"He's also paler than before. You must have had a hard time."

On Demi Rich's bloodless face, Silan grinned vaguely.

"Well, leave it to me to arrange the demon stone. Let's hit the military handout. Under my authority, it's hard to get a standard car for military use, but if it's just a demon stone, it doesn't matter."

"It helps. Now my shoulder's loaded."

"I just hope it moves soon, but it's broken, and I'm a little busy right now. It will be tomorrow that we can move out."

"Of course, I don't mind... what happened?"

"Actually, there's more than one monster sighting coming up from a nearby village. Well, that's common in itself, but there's something troublesome about it. They're all supposed to send out reconnaissance teams, but we have to make adjustments regarding their personnel."

"A troublesome monster...... is it?

When Silan asked, Adolf nodded with a sinister face.

It's a dragon.

"... is that true, Adolph"

Silan's expression turned into something sharp.

When I heard of the dragon, I remembered that it was an individual who attacked us shortly after the metastasis.

One punch of a student trying to eat was blowing his face off, but naturally, that's not usually the case because he has the usual combat ability to have cheats.

Dragons are powerful monsters all in all.

Long distances with tough wings, able to fly through the sky, they say, rarely come out of the sea of trees and cause great harm to human society.

With the power in the normal villages, it is difficult to confront.

"If that's true, isn't it a matter of requesting rescue from the Knights of the Patriots"

"Oh, but seeing the dragon species is a resident of a village on the border, a long way from here. Even from the fact that no damage has been done, it can be assumed that if there were a nest, it would be further away. Nor do I know if it was really a dragon breed because he said he just looked at it from a distance. Less urgent."

"But it's not information you can ignore"

"Exactly. So we're talking about sending out a scout team."

Adolph nodded heavily.

"Needless to say, I want you to be careful when you leave town. I don't want to lose my comrades anymore."

Tomorrow, Adolph will speak to the merchant who hears for the army, so if the Demon Stone is to be obtained, it will mean the day after tomorrow.

I've heard stories that bother me, but there's nothing we can do.

Tomorrow was the day when time floated.

"Why don't you just relax and get some rest"

Upon returning to the inn, Siran said.

"As far as I'm concerned, I was hoping you could put on some workouts, if only Silan could."

"... Takahiro sounds like a word, but sometimes you need to rest, don't you?

Rarely did Silan seem to get too carried away.

Ever since I've been in Akel, I've relied on her for a lot of scenes.

Maybe I'm tired.

"Yes, seniors"

Then it was Kato who raised his voice when he wondered what was going on.

I say with my hands together.

"That's right. Why don't we all take a look around town tomorrow"

"Ma, genuine vegetables...?

For some reason Rose gave a slightly upset voice, but Mr. Kato did not admire it.

"You haven't had much of a chance to take a slow look around somewhere ever since you've been on your way to your destination"

"You mean we're going to sightsee?

"Oh, that's a good idea"

Silan also agreed with Kato.

"I plan to show my face to Adolph, but will you all look around the town"

I couldn't possibly not even think about it if Silan even recommended me.

To be honest, I didn't have that idea.

I just don't think it's a bad suggestion.

I can't do anything in a day tomorrow anyway.

Then it's not a bad idea to look around the town of Akel, Silan's homeland.

"Okay. Let's do that."

When I said that, Kato laughed with great pleasure.

"Thank you"
