No Fatigue: 24-jikan Tatakaeru Otoko no Tenseitan

A civilian under the King's will takes me and Brother David to Prince Ellens II.

Father Alfred stayed put and said he would return to his duties as a Royal Knights (Royal Guard).

Then, because Asla said she was sleepy, Mother Julia and Jeremiah were to take her home.

That's why Brother David and I are the only ones left.

The guide's clerk bends over and over into the royal castle to his royal residence.

If you are inclined inside to bend more than you need to,

It's a royal safety precaution.

and Brother David taught me as I saw through.

"... were you on your face?

"Face or gaze. It looked like I was drawing a map in my head. I leaned my neck slightly over it, so I thought I'd find out."

It's easy, Mr. Watson, but your brother says it like he's about to say it.

"Look, you'll see the Dragon Knights stables over there, right? You can see the stables that are supposed to be out of the castle, which means they're pretty rough."

"Ho ho ho. You're no match for Lord Zafran."

And the civilian going ahead looks back and says with a bitter smile.

"Hopefully, though, it will help if you don't remember the path to the royal residence. It's the rule to take you in anticipation of when you're confused, but you won't get there forever as you are."

He was bitterly complained of by a civilian, and his brother shrugged his shoulder.

"Let's try."

Then for a while, only our footsteps echoed in the corridor.

There are not many crowds just by the royal residence either. The corridor is made up of marble and other stone, so the sound sounds really good. If this is a trick calculated to make those trying to get close to the royal residence nervous, it seems to be successful enough.

Would it have gone on for five or six minutes as it was? Two familiar figures came from the back of the corridor, taking them together.

On the signal of a civilian, me and Brother David pave the way for one of the two -

The person noticed us there and called out.

"You... you were the son of Lord Protector. Berhardt's brother's."

It was Prince Ilfreed who had spoken up.

Over 190cm physique and burning red hair make a vivid impression on the beholder. I think he was only 25 years old.

It's actually been four years since I've seen the prince since my friendly game with Dad Alfred.

I guess Brother David had several face-to-face occasions in the meantime, and the words of the Prince just now were also directed at his brother.

"Hiccup, Your Highness, Ilfrid."

Brother David greets you like hell.

"Mm-hmm. And then it's Rumor Edgar next door? I asked you via this guy, you've had a hard time with the herd of demons."

Prince Ilfreed turned to me and said so.

The prince says "this guy," while he thumbs up the other one.

The other one ahead of that thumb is me and Brother David's brother, Brother Berhardt. Brother Berhardt is Prince Ilfrid's squire, so it's more natural to be with him. It also seems quite familiar from the mouthfeel of the prince.

As a knight, the little brother Berhardt is taller than one head when he stands beside the prince.

Brother Berhardt seems a little uncomfortable running into his younger brothers while on duty.

... oops, I need to get back to the prince.

"No, I'm sorry I couldn't make a ridiculous report after all"

I say that and bow my head down small.

"No, I certainly didn't know what caused the birth of such a flock, but thanks to you sweeping the demonic flock, the innocent people didn't have to feed them. I think it's too much of an achievement. As leader of the Dragon Knights, it's hard to stop them in the Dragon Knights."

That's what the prince told Eagle Deep.

"Yes, it's also on the edge of something that we met here. Because of this, why don't we take a look at the Dragon Knights stables? This is a good opportunity to observe your brother's work?

To Prince Ilfrid, who laughs mischievously, me and Brother Devitt look each other in the face.

Look at us like that, Brother Berhardt.

"Your Highness, you're not wandering around like this without your brothers or anything."

"Is that true, too? David and Edgar, why are you here? Is that your library job?

"No, actually..."

Brother David explained how he was supposed to help investigate the Ripper (Ripper) case under cover.

"Well, are you saying that Ellen will direct the investigation? That's a good thing. He's been sick and weak for a long time and he couldn't get much of the experience he needed as a royalty. But when it comes to losing my head, I'm not even close. With experience, it's not so strange to be a one-jump next king candidate. Irvara is smart too, but he's a spell idiot..."

Prince Ilfreed said that to love his brother and sister.

Incidentally, the succession to the throne of the Kingdom of Santa Mana is not a common first-born inheritance, but rather the way in which the present King chooses the most worthy of the successor.

"If Lord Ellens solves the Ripper case, Your Highness won't be able to disapprove."

Brother Berhardt told me to make fun of him.

... Seeing how you can make such a terrible joke fly, these two seem really close.

"Ha-ha! I don't mind that. Instead, we've missed our rivals so far. Irvara is competent, but he doesn't seem interested in the throne at all. It is in the spirit of the royal system that successors to the throne compete with each other to gain sufficient strength to succeed the throne. Without my rivals, I might not be as powerful as I deserve to be king."

Anyway, he's a jerk.

Besides, the temperament is very similar to that of the current King Vistogard I. Even from the king, you can't possibly not be cute with a son very similar to yourself. The Lower Horse Review said the next king was almost settled in first prince Ilfreed.

If you look at it the way you look at it, you can't afford it.

"Surely, I guess my chances of becoming the next king are pretty high. I don't think Ellen will know until the end. Anyway, there's something over there I don't have. This is him."

This guy, the prince said, let him poke his index finger at his head.

"In that regard, my brothers and you brothers are very similar. My oldest son is a brain, and my brother is smart enough to jump through."

Even with all that masochism, me and Brother David have trouble replying.

Brother Berhardt said with a bitter laugh.

"It seems, though, that we too, while overstepping, are at the Prince's. My brain was sucked off by David in my mother's stomach."

"Then the order is the opposite. Your brother must have left you behind."

"Ha ha, no."

Brother David laughs at Brother Berhardt lightly.

Where the place was brightened, Prince Ilfreed said:

"Let's do this, then. I'll keep Ellen out of my use, so just take a peek at the stables. It's a good opportunity to see your brother's work, huh? Wouldn't Edgar like to see a dragon ride nearby? Why do you come all the time to show the nobleman kids?

Brother David showed a little lost in the offer, but seemed to decide his mind when he saw the civilian snort.

"... Now let's get you in trouble. I'm worried about Brother Berhardt's work."

That's why we're headed to the Dragon Knights stables.

◇

The stables of the Dragon Knights taken are considerably larger than those imagined from the word "stables". It's a huge building like a bunch of elephant and giraffe dwellings in a previous zoo.

Naturally speaking, there are more than twenty Dragon Knights' Dragon Riders inside the stables.

We were supposed to look around the spectacular stables lined with dragon riders on both sides.

"Hey, aren't you scared of some black dragon king, Ed Fong?

Prince Ilfreed, who is a little more comfortable, asks.

When I reached for the dragon rider in the stables, somehow the dragon rider shook himself and retreated from the scene.

Besides, this dragon rider was the biggest individual here - Prince Irfried's rider, the leader of the Dragon Knights "Black Dragon King. Black-wyburn with a black-black body, the total length exceeds three meters.

I reached out to stroke my head while pulling slightly on my fierce face...

"... I don't think so, Ed Fong, but have you ever had sex with a dragon?

"Yes..."

"You didn't get two names at that time?

"Speaking of which, you had two names: Dragonbuster."

"It's him... I don't know the details, but if there are two names that say it's a buster, a killer, or a slayer, they'll become alert from that kind of thing"

Heh... did I?

I rarely came across a dragon, so I didn't notice.

Is that it? But you weren't scared of the Nivrdragon protecting Asla. Was that all you felt strongly about protecting Asura?

"No, even when I sent you to a bunch of demons like this, you had a bad dragon rider and there was a report. Is that your fault, too?

Damn, even the Black Dragon King freaked out. You sound like a hell of a toddler, as rumored. "

I think the two names Julia's mother's "Wyvernslayer" also had to do with how things were going with dragon riding at that time. It's not just my fault... is it?

That's why every dragon rider gets scared when I get close, so I just had to watch the dragon riders faraway.

Meanwhile,

"Ugh! Don't bite!"

Brother David was screaming with a sweet bite on his arm trying to feed him.

"Uh, David's that one, you're the kind of guy a dragon can lick"

"Is there such a thing?

I ask the prince who laughs bitterly.

"Oh. For some reason, there is a personality that is easily licked by dragons. He doesn't make dragon knights like that. My brother, Ellen, is the same type of guy who gets licked as David. I tried to put him on a dragon rider, and he shook me off."

"It's easy to get licked when you look fine. I don't know. The dragon rider doesn't know how good the human head is."

In the Prince's words, Brother Berhardt puts in a supplement.

"So, a court magician or something is usually no dragon. I think it would be invincible to let the dragons ride those guys."

"In those cases, it's also a matter of looking transgressive. The dragon is a sensitive creature around here, and he's stuck around saying that the invisible guy looks great. On the other hand, once you acknowledge your strength, you will spare no effort."

Well, you're a more sensitive creature than I thought.

I hear that the Dragon Cavalry is a Wyburn that has been tamed and has become obedient after generations. It seems to take a great deal of effort and cost to make Wyburn a submissive dragon rider. I need to train my riders. If you say so, it would be like a fighter in a previous life. Eat taxes foolishly, but once finished, they become an extremely powerful weapon.

"Speaking of which, what about your brother's dragon rider?

When I thought of it and asked, Brother Berhardt took me to the back of the stables.

There he was,

"... a dragon child?

Behind the stables was a dragon rider big enough to be no different from a person.

Unlike other dragon riders, they sound about an octave high. But when I reached out, I trembled and ran away.

"This guy's still a papi. I mean, thanks to the birth of this guy, I was able to have an empty seat in the Dragon Knights, and I was able to be the Dragon Knight of the Memorial."

"I've wanted to get rid of Berhardt for a long time, because without dragon riding, I can't help but say how many more knights I've got. I ended up keeping you waiting for five years."

"You eventually took it away, that's enough. There are a lot of other people who want to be, so I'm sorry."

"I took it away because I have the strength. Nothing to worry about. Then again, dragon riding is a creature that is inherently hard for people to miss. That's why we need to let them spend time together from a very young age."

That's how your brother and prince explain it.

"Nari is small, but you can do enough to get caught in the leg and fly, right? Thanks to you, I often go to New Town."

"That's convenient enough for reconnaissance. Ma, it's only been a couple of years since I grew up so fast."

"If you mean reconnaissance, Your Highness's Black Dragon King will also be hard to stand out at night"

"That's true, but this guy's got a rough temper. When you're being too rough, it's enough to use Leptipagrass to make you grow up. But Leptipagrass is a rare herb, so it gets expensive..."

That's what the prince says and sighs.

"If you have Leptipagrass, you have one from the Ajito of the Yata-glass."

"What! Really!"

A prince jumped at my word.

"I'll buy it higher than the market value, so why don't you give it all up?

"Yeah, that's fine. It's dangerous, it can't be sold anywhere, and it's not as good as using it to level your skills."

When me and the prince were fumbling about the Leptipah grass business, I heard a concoction and a beating of hard stuff.

We look back at the sound.

- Excuse me.

A thin man, about twenty years old, stood in the position of knocking on the open door of the stables.

If you look at the costume and the gold mall lowered from your shoulders, you can tell the person is royal. This is the first face I've ever seen, but I guess this man is another prince in this country - Prince Ellen II. The prince, carefully clamping his thin blonde hair, only tied the upper side at the back of his head and fastened it with a barretta, with the rest flushing down his back. I got the impression of being somewhere feminine, coupled with her fluffy smoky grey blue eyes. but also the strength of the will can be felt from the eyes of the cleavage and the thin brows that have been stretched out. The impression that he seemed delicate and weak and the strong will to succumb to it seemed to live together. I hear from the king that he is sick, but it is convincing to see how the prince is in front of him.

"When I came to see how it was because it was late, were you still caught by your brother"

Brother David answers Prince Ehrens' words with a bitter smile.

Now Prince Ilfreed opened his mouth.

"Oh, Ellen. How's it going?

"Thanks to you, we're doing well here."

"Good for you. You want to lead the investigation into the Ripper case? Sick, all right?

Prince Ilfreed said worryingly, but Prince Ellens looked somewhat pioneered.

"Yeah, my doctor tells me there's no problem."

"Oh well. But directing people is a big deal. If you ever have a problem..."

"Yeah, yeah. Let me talk to you."

"That's fine. When I was just entrusted with the Dragon Knights, I asked the vice president at the time to bow his head and treat him not as a royal but as the leader of the Dragon Knights of the New America, and he gave me cancer."

"Really?"

"You're going to put David as an assistant? I think it's a good decision. Every time he's got his tongue wrapped around his head."

"... thank you"

I don't think Prince Ellens is responding a little to the intimate Prince Irfrid. After a moment, Prince Ellens may not be good at Prince Ilfreed. Indeed, Prince Ellens, the thin type of line, is not likely to be as good of a type as Prince Illfried, who, to put it badly, is lavish.

That seems to be the same feeling for the people around you, Brother Berhardt said with a cough.

"Your Highness, it's time to prepare for the regular sentry."

"Oops, you did. No, I'm so glad you're feeling better. Maybe he's floating a little bit because he can finally do something like his brother. Don't be offended, Ellen."

"No, it's outrageous. Kind, painful."

"Yeah, well..."

Prince Ilfreed tried to cut the conversation off, it's about that moment.

Outside the stables, from the royal dwellings, we heard a tremendous explosion.
