Mr. Nobu’s Otherworld Chronicles

Episode 131: The Prosperity of Waquanya, Part 13

I was called to the Adventurer Alliance Alliance Master's room today.

Is that it? Did you do something recently...... yeah, I do. Did you find out?

A dandy Mr. Amiral sitting in front of him slowly opens his mouth.

"Nobsada, I asked you to come here today because I don't want you to ask anything else, because a nomination request came in."

When I cut it out, it shifts my gaze to the person sitting next to me on the fine sofa.

Oh, I knew it was for you. I didn't think so, but I dared to slip away from my gaze so that I could escape reality, couldn't I? That's right.

There's a well-dressed uncle sitting there who I've seen several times. The duke was there when he wore sunglasses with his blonde hair cut short and his footwork light. Yes, it is the head of this city, Quantro Azbel, the man.

"Hey, long time no see, Mr. Knobsada. I've heard a lot about you ever since."

"It's been a while. Since I met you at Mr. Maniwa's store?"

"Right. I asked you to come today because I wanted you to take my request."

Translation: "It's in my ear that I'm serving a lot. Is it my fault that it sounds like they're saying, 'If you don't want them to dig them up, you'll take the request'?

"Let's introduce ourselves again. My name is Quantro Azbel. For once, I've been given the Duke, but I'm glad he's treating me as comfortable as ever."

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no I'm pretty cautious, aren't I?

"Yes, sir"

"If you do that, you shouldn't be here. That's it. I'd like to ask you. [M] In the next six months, my two daughters will travel to the capital on my behalf, but I want them to arrive as one of their escorts."

Is that the duke's daughter? Oh, I've been careful not to see you as much as I can until now, but are you involved?

"As one of the escorts, is that my personal nomination? Not a party?

"Shall I explain that to you from my side? Only you, Nobsada, have been nominated by the Duke. Originally, VIP escort requests are more than C-class adventurers, but this is a special occasion. And your promotion exam to the C-level is also combined. I have a separate request for the other members, so if these succeed, it will clear up and the party itself will be C-rated."

The fact of the shock was mentioned from Mr. Amiral's mouth.

Ugh, you're all turned around so you can no longer escape and hide.

"I should have turned the Knights into escorts, but I've been putting in a lot since the last incident. As for this escort, we're going to hire a mercenary platoon and an adventurer."

Well, if you're the Duke's daughter, you'll need a proper escort. Still, I feel like it's unusual, even though I'm putting in that the Knights won't accompany me.

"So. Only the eldest daughter is supposed to turn. As for my second daughter, it's for a reason. I'm supposed to be one of the adventurers."

Na, nandattee. The Duke added a lot of expression from the side. Is the second daughter that masked princess? What a mess I feel like it's going to be.

"Regardless, the samurai and the Kingsguard female knights don't have to think about it until they're taken care of. And I'm supposed to have Eleanor back on the scene from the Adventurers Guild to go with you. Including that, Knobsada, you only have a white feather arrow."

I see. I would be more convenient if I were to work with Mr. Eleanor, indeed.

"The escort goes and goes. There may be a lot of errands in Wang Du. Including them, the reward is 100,000 manny. Then I'll add something depending on the result. And all the inn bills on the road. Don't worry, I have them."

Hmm, the speed of travel would not increase as much if mercenaries were included, even if they were traveling using carriages. In other words, the journey to Wangdu is certain for about twenty days each way. You will be detained for quite a few days on your way and home. In the meantime, what are we going to do with Waquan Shop? Well, there's a lot I can do.

It seems certain that Mr. Eleanor will be returning to the scene, and it would be a shame to worry, but I don't know what those people will do, so I guess I won't be convinced if I don't go myself.

Plus, it's kind of a broken commission for a class D adventurer. Blah, Japanese-style shops are more lucrative, but they've put a lot of money on Wang Du, so if you can gather information and retaliate, you could call it a boat on the way.

I thought about it a lot, but shall I take it? If that's the case, let's hear a lot about it.

"Mr. Amiral, may I ask you a number of questions?

"I don't mind. What is it?

"I mean, Mr. Eleanor's back on the scene, but why the hell not?

"Well, you didn't know. Martial arts festivals are held at this time in the Wang capital. Arm bragging is gathering from various lands. And nobles have adventurers and martial artists in their possession. If you join them and win, the nobleman's name will jump. While Matuda and Temro can't compete because they're under thirty, what did you win last year, Eleanor?"

That guy is amazing. By the way, it seems that why I'm under thirty is because my master won all over Butchgiri. Master Ye...

Many of the masters known to the world still seem to have more than forty. Masterclasses are narrowed down when they are under thirty. It seems that Mr. Eleanor managed to win while struggling among them. Mr. Eleanor is going to be there to compete again this year as a representative of Gramada.

"What's a mercenary company that accompanies you?

"Um, it's a first-class mercenary unit called 'Mahal Marine'. Captain Arthur Kula, and vice president Teena Galafau. Maybe the lieutenant is more famous than the captain. Because he leads the mercenary corps while he is a beast man and a woman. Previously, she didn't have a very good image of looting or sabotage, but since she assumed the position of deputy chief, she's hit, changed and turned into a clean force."

Unlike adventurers, mercenaries seem to be better at interpersonal fights than demons. Be careful, it doesn't seem unlikely to get tangled.

"I see. Are you sure you want to tell me what to prepare here? Because it's probably my first escort assignment."

"Sure. Half a month would be enough to prepare. There is nothing difficult about it. Spare weapons for drugs, individually owned food, and weapon protective equipment as usual. Especially since spare weapons don't necessarily mean they can be replenished on the road, so you should definitely have them. This trip to the Duke's house means everyone travels by carriage or horse."

Oh, the Duke of Boulder house. It is a general behavior. For once, I'll take the White Rice, but it's remarkable that I pull it off. I only want to use it when I have to. The other belongings are still in dimensional storage, so there is no problem there. The Moon Cat seems to stand out in a way. Shall we use the Devil's Spirit Silver Side Difference mainly? If you have any good knives, you can buy them.

"Okay. Let me take this request."

"Thanks, that'll help. Let's contact the rest of the members later about a separate request. Do you have a deputy leader?

"No, that's right. Treat Mr. Futuno as a representative during my absence."

"Okay. Then meet me here at the Adventurers Guild in half a month."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I have one favor to ask..."

I did a little favor, but I managed to get recognition. Oh, I've been busy. I've only got half a month, so I have to hurry up and get ready.

◆ ◆ ◆

"Listen carefully, both of you. The escort thing came true as hoped."

It is the Duke, Quantro, who tells that in one of the rooms of the mansion, which is not an exaggeration to say the largest mansion in Gramada, no castle.

"Thank you, Father. I told my sister I couldn't do it."

"Shania, there's nothing to worry about. I thought it would be good for me too."

"I guess I should go anyway, because Gramada still smells like it. It's a severed thought to send you guys, but come back safe and sound."

"Father, I will come to you as a duke's son to serve you well. I will gladly give this life for your father, who made me live forever until my age, invaded by the disease."

His eyes, with their rotten and radiant determination, capture the Duke straight away.

"My daughter. You're not going to a dead place, so don't let that kind of sadness happen. Even if something happens, it's the Kingsguard knights and escorts who protect you. Think about coming back instead of throwing your life away from the edge. And in case anything happens, Eleanor, count on you and the other one."

"Shania was recommending it, too, but can he rely so much on it? I'm not questioning your father's judgment, but I have some doubts about relying on him instead of the knights..."

"Um, I guess it's natural to think so. But his strength is such that Matuda, Amiral, and Temro push his heartbeat. And I'm even saying I haven't shown you the bottom yet."

There was a slightly startling colour in the eyes of the lady when she heard the words. One of the best in this glamada, it is also recognized by the three. Shania's story said she was supposed to be younger than the lady, but she didn't seem to think that far.

Being a Duke's Lady, she is invaded by a certain illness. It is the after-effect of an accident that occurred at an early age, but the technique of healing has not yet been found, and only life extension measures have been applied to this day. As a result, I have grown up with the personality that I would not hate to throw my life out for my father and sister, who have always supported me while considering my status as the Duke's son.

"Sister, take care of yourself. I'll take care of it if you have to, but I'll protect you."

"You shouldn't. I haven't thought I'd let my dear sister say that, have I? It's okay, Shania. I just showed my readiness. It's not that cheap, is it?

Shania sighs in her heart when she sees her sister like that. Even so, I'm sure this sister will want to protect herself by underestimating her own life if anything.

"(Oh man. Nob Sada, you protected me well)"

Shania somehow placed a certain trust in Knobsada, whom she had only met once. A drunken homosexual who chose the same level god. That's the only contact I have as a friend, but she seemed to have something that sounded like something.

Knobsada becomes involved while the thoughts of the Three Kinds are involved. But there's one thing we all have in common. I am each convinced that there will be something on this journey. No one knows if that's auspicious or vicious.
