As we went down the street, a sudden gang of rough guys pinched us from the front and back.

There are 50 people in the front and 100 in the back.

They all have armed, human-specific faces that are familiar with the rough.

"Your husband..."

"Don't worry."

Put your hands on Shirley's head, who acted (,,,,) on the point, and darkly indicate that it is okay to stay put.

I jumped off the carriage and said it out loud.

"I'm Millace Truth. As you can see, I'm a merchant. Can I help you?"

In other words, out of the fifty in the front, one young man was moving on.

A man familiar with rough affairs and characterised by eyes that make him feel calm, although Gatai (,,) is like any other human being.

"I know you're a merchant. I was hoping to get a toll."

"toll, is it"

"That's right. That's what merchants do, you know?

The man ran out with a smile.

"What if I don't pay"

"Doesn't that mean you can't pay?

The man smiled away even more.

I was convinced that my swing at the inn yesterday was in my ear.

"You should be honest with me. That way you don't have to do anything stupid."

"Unfortunately, I'm not going to pay"

The man's smile disappeared.

The men bothered.

It seemed like they never imagined a merchant could pull back demands like this.

"Then I can't help it, I'll have my eyes looked a little sore. Hey."

When the man crouched his jaw, three of his men came out from behind him, and he bogged his hand around his neck.

"If you look closely, you'll look beautiful."

"I hate these kids so much."

"If you're gonna cry, you better hurry up."

The men attacked me with words like that.

All three of them pulled out a long sword with a runny waist and slashed it.

Let your fists wrap Bahamut's flames around you and get rid of them without creation.

The long sword that was paid melted down more than half of the blade simultaneously.

Joo...... and bright red melted iron scorching the ground.

The men did not understand the situation at all.

I just beat the three of them up.

Just the looks (,,,,,) of the fire burned up in abundance, and the men blew up.

"Awesome husband!

Shirley gave a drink on the carriage.

"... apparently, I really want to see some painful eyes"

When the leader's youth said, the bandits attacked at the same time.

Wrap the Bahamut flame around your hands and intercept.

Melt the weapon, dramatically leave it on fire and blow it away.

The enemy is knocked down one after the other, falling to the ground and extinguishing.

Everyone was coming at me.

If I thought you weren't going that way -.

"Don't move! This woman has no life!

Sudden intimidation stopped me and the bandits.

Slowly turning around, one of the bandits jumps on the carriage, takes Shirley hostage, wings tightened from behind, and a sword blade on his throat.

……

I didn't answer.

"Or head. Within the moment. Come on!

Seeing my movements stopped, the man told the leader's youth.

The young man pulled out his sword silently and walked out - sliding through my side.

"Eh - Around!

And he slashed and dumped his own men without any hesitation at all.

"Hey, why..."

The man slashed and rolled off the carriage sees his boss with his face saying he can't believe it.

"Shame on you, such as taking a woman hostage!

"Ugh..."

After the youth told him to throw up, turn to Shirley.

"It's okay now... Huh?

And now he's surprised.

Oh, my God, there was a sword sucking on Shirley's neck.

A sword pressed by a man taken hostage is still sucking on his neck.

"That's your husband. Whatever happens, I don't feel hurt at all."

Shirley has turned a respectful eye on me.

Earlier, I told Shirley in advance and made him do it.

If your eyes go to Shirley from the beginning. Okay, you don't have to go. Shirley speaks up and draws attention.

I wanted to see what I would do with it.

Of course, not to let Shirley bear one injury, after linking Leviathan, the most loyal rapper to me, to the armored ring, I let him focus solely on protecting Shirley.

The result led to the sight of a sword being sucked down his throat.

The young man who saw it is very surprised, and roughly looks at me.

"Who the hell are you...?

I could see from that eye that I was guessing a lot.

At least you don't think of me as just a merchant anymore.

"Raymond-Griff Daily"

The young man was greatly surprised.

And some of my men said, "Griff?" Successive voices of doubt clashed.

"Wonder why you know your full name when you've only been named Raymond Daley for the last twenty years? You stopped using that name after your father died in prison."

"Why... I know that"

It was like a different, squeezing out of the back of my throat, a squeaky voice from earlier.

"After his father, who was a deputy, died, he went through a begging, and drifted to the bandits. It lived peacefully with it, but one day I saw the bandits' captain try to force his men's wives to cage their hands, and after being cut and killing the captain, he was pushed around to take the captain's seat"

"... that's a lot of research. Who the hell are you?"

Raymond has calmed down a lot since I mentioned that, because his performance since joining the bandits in the second half was probably an overt fact that he didn't even hide himself and his current men all know about.

"If you stay like this, you won't die a decent way."

"I've been ready since I started this operation. That's how I was born."

"What if there's another way?"

"Something like that."

"I made him look into your father. You were imprisoned for arbitrarily distributing food to refugees during famine. Arbitrage is arbitrary, but if the emperor changes, he'll be treated differently."

"What difference does it make?"

Raymond asks me back to throw up.

"To the point of putting a baron on the chase sign,"

"... who are you really?

Increasingly, the surprising color of the eyes reinforces Raymond.

"Shirley"

"Ha."

Shirley nodded and launched a signal bullet into the sky.

It was like a type of fireworks in my hand, launched in a straight line, emitting a clear visible light even during the day, with the sound of an explosion.

Less than a minute later, I hear a groundhowling footsteps.

Another minute or so later, a soldier showed up.

2,000 soldiers suddenly appeared and surrounded 100 more bandits surrounding me.

After that, Cheryl came before me.

"Cheryl Hyde, we have just arrived - Your Majesty"

Cheryl said that and knelt at me.

At the same time, 2,000 soldiers knelt at me.

A decently dressed, regular army of 2,000.

The bandits, including Raymond, blued when they saw it kneel at me all at once.

"Heh, Your Majesty... you, no, you..."

"Noah Ararat, the Emperor of the Empire."

"-!"

You look like you've been struck by lightning, Raymond, one step behind you.

Ten seconds to solidify.

Raymond knelt back to me and gave me a beautiful compliment.

Then the bandits also knelt down one after the other.

Shirley also jumped off the carriage, kneeling.

Out of a total of 2,100 people, all of them kneel down, and I'm the only one standing.

It's a sight that can only be an emperor.

In the meantime, I look down at Eagle Deep Fried and Raymond.

"I made him look into you, and he showed me what to do earlier."

"Ha..."

"It's a shame man to let you die. Aren't you willing to work for the rest?"

Raymond hacks, looks up.

"Oh, that's my father's -"

"It doesn't matter that way. I've already restored my honor."

"-!"

Raymond was increasingly surprised and at the same time had a colour of gratitude in his eyes.

"Wow..."

Raymond kept his head down as someone in the woman snapped.

"Whatever you say. Spend this life, no matter what."
