Chapter VII 16 "Imperial Situations"

― ― The castle city "Gural".

That is the name of the first civilized city in the Empire to which the Subaru arrived.

Until now, I have lived in the encampment of Imperial soldiers, the settlement of the "people of Shdrak", and an environment almost unchanged from that of wild accommodation, so I was touched to see civilization.

Nevertheless, I am not happy to let go of the civilization of the environment.

Because...

"- Examination"

Subaru moistens his lips with his tongue when he sees the checks taking place at the entrance to the city.

Surrounded by walls, GUARAL restricts access to the city by the Taisho Gate, one east and one west.The checkpoint was permanently installed at the main gate, and it was seen that the mighty gate soldiers in the distance had a harsh face and sharp eyes.

Atai and the others discovered Shdrak at first glance.If you don't have something suspicious or something, don't follow me, I'll be fine. "

"Don't bother. Don't be majestic.Keep Lem and Louis safe. "

is the word of Kuna and Holly, who broke up before they arrived in the city.

Both were advised not to be more nervous than necessary, but it is quite impossible to forget the tension and anxiety.

After all, the Subaru are unknown and unidentified Gentiles in the Empire.

"But even I know that I'm not welcome to have Lugnica wandering around Volakia at this time of year."

To be honest with an idiot, you will definitely buy the Gatekeeper's discomfort.

If you are literally paid in advance, you will not be able to see if you are inadvertently caught.With that deployment, we've already done it in Imperial positions.

--In addition, it is absolutely unacceptable that a large number of people will be burned due to Subaru's mistake.

――――

"... if you look too steep, you'll be suspicious."

Reflecting the complex mind, Subaru, who had wrinkles between his eyebrows, rounded his eyes to his voice.

I heard voices on the back - on the back of a lemon.Due to the structure of the backrest, they are facing each other, so the lem should not be able to see Subaru's face.

"And how did you know I was wrinkling between my eyebrows?"

"Even if you can't see, you can hear your breath.It is over the back, but my heart beats because my back touches each other.... I'm getting nervous, too. "

"Ugh... that's too bad, the wrinkles between your eyebrows and your loud heart."

"Yes, please be quiet."

"You're not telling me to stop breathing, are you?"

Rem remained silent and sighed in response to the confirmation just in case.

The breath of the lem is just as warm as the agitation and indifference to Subaru.It wasn't a clear feeling of disgust or hostility, so I feel a little relieved.

I can't say anything back when they say I'm low on aspirations.

Huh, huh?

"... I know, so don't rush. You're one of the things that's bothering you."

It was Louis with his long hair tied together who pulled Subaru's sleeve and pointed in a line.

The Horn of the Beast, entrusted to him by the Kunas - Louis carrying it in a white wrapper - is no wonder Subaru doesn't want to line up.

But I couldn't recklessly line up like Louis without thinking about anything.

"We don't have the means to prove our identity, nor the sleeves to give to the gate soldiers.That means it's impossible to get in with a straightforward approach. "

"Why don't you line up and talk to the gate guard?"

"Appealing in good faith is an option, but I'm afraid I may not be able to recover if I fail.... because we don't have anyone to rely on right now. "

After hearing Subaru's concerns, Lem slightly rang his throat and shut up.

It may be difficult to imagine this in a lem without "memory", but I have never moved beyond being careful just because the place is the place and the national pattern is the national pattern.

--Unexpectedly, the Subaru have been flown from the Preades tower to the Empire, and it's almost ten days now.

The initial confusion faded a lot, and the immediate relationship with Lem and Louis was temporarily shelved, but it is still difficult to say that the situation has all improved.

In the first place, the situation where Subaru and Lem, and Louis, were already acting alone, was only a moment away from the original hunter and Ergina escape drama that was flown.

Otherwise, the Imperial soldiers' positions, the Shdrak settlement, and the journey to this Gural were always shared by someone who knew the Empire.

I didn't build a friendly relationship with all of them, but at least I wasn't careful.

"But not from here on out."

Against Todd and Abel, they departed from the way, and from the people of Shdrak.

From here, the three Subaru must walk through the untouched land of the Empire without a cane.Even if I refused, I tried to be careful in my judgment.

"So, what do we do?Worrying or getting lost doesn't change your purpose, does it?I can't believe I'm passing through this city.... "

"If you give up the censorship here, it doesn't mean you haven't done the same thing in another city.If this were Lugnica, I wouldn't be so vigilant... no "

Shake his head and Subaru looks at the situation of the Empire.

After being chased by the throne of the emperor, Abel said so.If that is true, the Empire is now in the midst of civil strife.

Abel said that he was hiding the Emperor's absence from the city well, but he couldn't stand the door in people's mouths, and the atmosphere was contagious.

That's why Todd seemed uncomfortable with the operation at the camp.

"If so, is it Abel's fault that the checks are strict...?Damn it, I hate him. "

Abel has a way of being helped, but I'd like to keep it a little negative for deductions and mood issues.

With that personality and attitude, I can imagine why I was rebelled against by the people below.

"The king didn't know the heart of man, and he was the one who was about to leave the land."

"... maybe you're not seriously worried, but you're wasting your time thinking about something that doesn't matter?"

The chin rubbed, and Lem's voice became cold and stiff to the murmuring Subaru.

Subaru hastily explains "no no no" because it was a voice tone that passed through daze and indifference and contained honest anger.

"Wait, wait, don't worry. Sure, my round-table thoughts were a waste of time, but I'm not gazing at the queue helplessly.I have an idea. "

"Aren't you ashamed to lie as a person?"

"Let's show some faith!?You can't lie in no time!? "

Subaru is desperate to restore trust, not knowing that Lem's evidence will continue to decline.

In fact, I didn't line up 800 lies, but there are alternatives for breaking through the examination properly.Subaru and his men alone cannot pass the gate check in a serious way.

Then it's not just the Subaru.

"I mean...."

"Natsuki Subaru, show the essence of one hundred and eight stunts - the" other power application "."

Subaru answered with his thumb up and his teeth shining.

When I received it, I felt that even though I couldn't see his face for some reason, I felt that Lem, who was also invisible to me, was pointing his face over his back.

△▼△▼△▼△

Go through the unique tense checkpoint and dive through the large main entrance that looks up.

With an open view and exotic stone streets in front of him, Subaru raised his hands to the spot from a sense of accomplishment.

It's gone!

Ahhh!

Just beside him, Louis raised his hands in the same way, hearing the powerful voice of Subaru.

For a moment, the joy of crossing the first gates to enter the city drove it away, although I felt like I was one of them.

It's also true that Louis' presence helped to break through the censorship.

"Still, it's different from Lugnica.There were a few differences between King's Landing and Pristina.... "

While gazing at the atmosphere of the city, Subaru compares with the city of the Kingdom of Lugnica in his head.

The most impressive thing about Subaru is the costume neighborhood next to the New Rosewall Mansion, but the change to being a different country seems to be significant.

The King's Capital, Costume, and Pristera, each of which has its own unique characteristics, also had something in common with the atmosphere unique to the Kingdom.I can't feel it in this guaral.

Compared to the kingdom, which had the so-called royal atmosphere of a different world fantasy, the Empire city is more fragile and less colourful.It has the impression that it is more practical than decorative.

The whole city had a sense of unity in the direction that gave it a sense of strength and sophistication rather than glamour, and the impression seemed to be fuelled by a flat, peeled ground.

Lugnica is a cobblestone, but this looks like the basics.

Given the size and population of the city, Gural is considered to be a city above average in the Empire.

It is probably just the right amount of salted plum to compare with the rest of the Empire.

"Well, I don't want to stay too long, so I've never moved on without using a pickpocket."

"--Um, could you put it down?"

"And bad."

Behind such an emotion, Subaru was told to lower it to Lem, the backbone, and Subaru slowly knelt on the spot, apologizing to her.

Remove the hook from your shoulder and lower your backrest, and stand on the ground with a wand.

I want to walk on my back during my long journey, but if I enter the city, I want to walk on my feet.There was no more reason not to listen to Lem's wish than there was no more reason to hurry.

"This is it....."

The wandering lem looks back and finally sees the same sight as Subaru and the others.

The lime with the eyebrows raised slightly, the pale blue eyes were surprised and slightly touched, and Subaru slowly relaxed her cheeks in response to the positive reaction of the lime.

"How are you, surprised?"

"That's... yes, I'm surprised.Even in the queue... I've never seen a decent city with so many people. "

"Ah, I see. I've never had a decent life for Lem."

As mentioned above, all Lem has experienced so far were exceptional places and treatments.

As long as there is no 'memory', there is no memory of living with anyone in Lem.Living with Subaru, Louis, and the 'People of Shdrak' is all that Lem has.

――――

Subaru closed his eyes and turned one eye to the look of Lem, who was deeply emotional.

For the first time, she folded the backrest with the lem down and waited for her impression to draw.

― ― As a city, it is difficult to say that Gural is full of vitality.

Lined checkpoints and prominent, dark, boneless streets.Taken together, it is a land far from a glamorous impression.The size of the city is probably a few thousand people.

Still, the emotional value of passing Lem's eyes will not be diminished.

If that's the case, why don't you take a look around?

"- No, thanks, I don't want you to take any extra time."

"If it's for you, there's nothing extra..."

Subaru answers, scratching his cheeks, to Lem, who shook his neck sideways.

In fact, if there are bright signs in Lem's mind, there is no problem with sightseeing in the city.If this is an imminent situation, I would like to refrain from asking, but for the time being, the outlook was good.

And it's also thanks to Lem's ingenuity.

"I couldn't have done well with the flops without Lem.You can say it yourself for a while. "

"... I'm saying it's not good to keep those flops waiting.Even though it's too sweet, do you owe any more? "

"Uhh... if you say so, yes, I'm sorry..."

Turning his gaze toward the city, Subaru squeezed his chest into Lem's sharp gaze.

Behind those Subaru, a slow and heavy wheel sounds, and a bull wheel, the faraway car that draws the brave cow "Farrow", comes.

"Farrow" is a type of animal that is used, such as a dragon or a big dog, "Riger."

They often pull cars like dragons and riggers, and are often used to transport large luggage.Because the speed is slow and there is no "windscreen protection" like a local dragon, it is generally heard that it is operated in the city.

And then...

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm sorry to keep you waiting.I didn't take the time to check the shipment.I'm in a lot of trouble working as an official. "

Farrow carriage lord's bench, it is a young man with long forehair who shrugs his shoulders as he says so.

With dazzling golden hair, pale skin and thin lines wrapped in sleeveless clothing, Subaru and the others were committed to entering the city.

Subaru lowers his head and says, "Good work."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Flop, but we'll let you through first."

"No, I don't mind.Checking loads is a boring job.It's not as good as going out on a date. "

In response to Subaru's apology, the young man on the podium, Flop, gently shook his head.

The long forehair shakes like an hyena in a streamlined fashion, and I feel like I can see the glittering effects there.I am a habitual person, but the answer is decent so there is a big gap.

Before the Subaru of such a mind, he stroked his forehair again.

"Yes, it's a boring job. It's not you who travel to the future, but you can leave it to me... not even my sister."

"Gran, Gran, I can hear you!"

"Haha, I didn't tell you not to hear me, sister.Don't lick my brother's volume. "

It was a woman walking alongside a slow-flowing cowhide who answered the subtle blurred flop.

She has the same color of hair as the flop and a long face.She has a strange hairstyle that divides her shoulders and feet into bold clothes and voluminous hair sections.

Such an appearance is also characteristic, but the most eye-catching is probably the barbaric knife behind the waist.

It is also obvious from the condition of the tool used that it is not a pretense or a fancy tool.

She is called Medium, a friendly O'Connell brother and sister traveling together with her brother Flop.

The two were acquainted with each other in the array of check-ups, but they were also a benefactor who helped us to cross the check-ups of Subaru, who were difficult to identify and under their sleeves.

Of course, they weren't just kind enough to help the Subaru.Originally, it was Subaru who looked at the O'Connell brothers and sisters to cross the checkpoint.

Subaru, who have no money or connections, need the help of others to get past the checkpoint.

So Subaru thought the flops could negotiate.

So the reason Subaru thinks...

"Awesome, Grandma! So, all my thoughts were foresight!"

"Of course. You can't beat business unless you read it first.Our O'Cornell Chamber of Commerce is made up of my mind and your skills! "

"Sasugah! I have no idea what you're talking about!"

"Hahahaha, my sister seems to be having a lot of fun with her life!"

O'Connell brothers and sisters laugh at each other with their chests turned against each other.Their job is to be a peddler.

Strictly speaking, Flop was in charge of business as a peddler, and Medium was in charge of escorting his brother and goods on the way and in the city.

--Merchant.

That was the condition that Subaru chose to rely on to break through the censorship.

"Otto and Anastasia-san lived the experience we talked about....."

Anastasia traveled long distances with her family member Otto.― ― The latter was not the person, but an act of echidona disguised as such, but it should not have been comparable to the person in terms of knowledge.

Subaru had some trust in the merchant, thanks mainly to the two Kaoru clays.

Even if it operates across borders, if it is a merchant, it will listen to the person who offers the benefits.

Literally, ready to hit and shatter, the Subaru encountered the O'Connell brothers and sisters as they attacked fiercely and shook off against four sets of merchants.

And he spoken to them with a slight habit and received excellent cross-examination cooperation.

As a negotiating material for this, they were very interested in…

"Still, are you sure the reward is this backpack?Sure, it's a little ingenious, but it's not half handmade, is it? "

"I can't deny the simplicity.However, it was interesting to know that it was assembled and how it was devised for carrying.Will it also help you carry heavy luggage? "

"... well, if that's okay with Mr. Flop,"

Slightly reluctant, Subaru turns the folded back over to the medium.

Upon receiving it, the medium raised his back and stared at it, twisting his neck and pushing it into the cargo platform of the cowhide.She didn't seem to have any value in the long run.

In fact, Subaru doesn't know where Flop rated it.

The O'Connell brothers and sisters' cooperation was conditional on the transfer of Subaru's backpack.

When I saw the flop with the back of the lemon on it, I was impressed by the unique and interesting construction, and promised to pass the examination in exchange.

To be honest, I was also prepared to suggest the Horn of the Beast as a negotiating material, so I could say that it was rather a subversive condition.

"I was thinking of rebuilding the city with better ingredients, and in the worst case scenario, there's a chance Lem won't come aboard anymore."

"It's true that you want to walk on your feet as much as possible.Your stench drifts in the wind as you ride on your back. "

"Solly...."

With his wand on, Lem followed the witch's incense quietly.

Nevertheless, I would like to say that I endured it during my journey and that it was kind to talk to me when I arrived at my destination.

Seeing such an exchange between Subaru and Lem, the flop shrugged his shoulders.It's a rude trick, but there's a reason for that attitude.

"Get along better, you guys.Wives and husbands support each other.It was beautiful to support each other. "

"Well, it was Grandma who took the backpack!"

"Exactly! I don't know what you're talking about, I am!"

A flop pressed against her forehead and a medium pressed against her belly laughed loudly.

Loosening her cheeks as they laughed, Subaru glanced at Lem.Lem is holding Louis in one hand without laughing at all.

On her side, Subaru shouted "Um ~".

"Right, Mr. Lem? Are you angry?"

"What? Why do you think I'm angry?Do you have any idea? "

"No, even though it's set up, I don't think I meant to talk about me and the couple...."

While pointing his fingers at each other, Subaru is afraid of Lem's mood.

According to the flops, Subaru and Rem are married.

It was because my brother and sister asked me about Subaru's relationship when I asked for a consultation to cross the examination, and I was poor on the old answer.--No, I'm not poor.

I had the answers I had prepared, but I had no choice but to doubt them.

"I can't believe you can't believe my travel brothers and sisters..."

"Mr. Flop and Mr. Medium were in the same situation, and you two are very similar.Me, you and this kid were impossible lies. "

As a merchant, it has to be said that Subaru was just lacking in alchemy to deceive his opponent to survive a world where lies and honesty fly together.

However, I realized the lie of my brothers and sisters by saying, "You're not at all alike, Grandma!Medium with a louder voice. "

Regardless, the spectacle long story of defeating his eyesight, deriving from Subaru's prepared brother and sister settings, and discarding the cursed ring from his hometown to a distant mountain was cut off.

There was also the shock, and Subaru was desperate to answer their questions.It was Lem's clever explanation of his "wife" that saved the dilemma.

"I'm talking about Lem and I being married, and he's keeping Lem's sister's child...."

"That's what you told me when I had a sister.I didn't think there was such a big boy because I was talking about twins... but I would close my eyes there. "

Hmm?

Lem strokes his head and Louis roars small with a snuffy face.

This seemingly harmless manners and attitude of Louis was one of the factors that prevented Flops from alerting Subaru.

Bad looking Subaru, bad lime and defenseless Louis.Because the three of them didn't judge the villains and flops working in the city.

"Why..."

Yeah?

"Why did you have trouble answering in such a place?You've always done more appropriate things. "

"That sounds like a compliment and a disguised complaint...."

Nevertheless, it is certain that Subaru's impudence endangered Lem.

Had it not been for Lem's ingenuity, it is likely that Subaru would still have been stuck outside the gate looking in line.

――――

There is also a limit to misleading with a light mouth.

Subaru, who wants to avoid losing the trust of Lem any longer, roars "ahh" small in the eyes of Lem, who stares at himself.

"I was surprised myself, but the moment I was spotted lying, my body got really nervous.Maybe it's the trauma of a rough shoulder because of what I said at the camp. "

"Ah...."

"If I answer poorly, I think the flops will change.It's pathetic, but that stopped me thinking. I'm sorry. "

After communicating his pathetic self-analysis, Subaru lowered his head honestly to Lem.

Smart little head and mouth, that's the few Natsuki Subaru weapons that were better than people.And yet, if your head and mouth stop turning, it's just your feet and hands.

I'm saving Lem's life.--You can't make a bad mistake.

"--I understand the situation. I don't think I can help it."

"... really? You've been having such a rough time?"

"Anyone with painful thoughts is strong.At least I think so. "

Subaru, who thought he would be scolded, is surprised by the reaction of the lem.

Of course, the roots are gentle lems, so I knew I could take care of people.What surprised me was that Subaru also took the consideration into account.

"... aren't you angry?"

"I'm not angry. However, next time, we need to consult beforehand.I don't think I can make an excuse every time. "

"Ah, oh, okay.... are you really not angry?"

"I'm not angry."

"Really?"

"You said you weren't angry...!"

Don't worry, I bought the wrath of Lem instead.

With his head in sharp Lem's eyes, Subaru shrunk and eventually begged for forgiveness.

After such a scenario, the Subaru finally entered the Gural.

△▼△▼△▼△

"--That's how it feels!"

And Subaru threw his body on the dormitory bed and stretched out his arms and legs to enjoy freedom.

Fairly good beds and sheets, the clean atmosphere of the room, and the inner grade of the inn - all at the right price.

I shouldn't be too luxurious in my position, but I would separate it from the necessary expenses to buy safety.

If you're going to stay somewhere, you might want to leave aside the options of cheap lodging and nowhere to stay.If you have self-defense powers like Emilia and Garfield, it's a good duck for me and Natsuki-san who plan evil. "

Was that one of the topics I was talking about when I was wrapping a tube around Otto's room?

Calm down and think about it, it's a natural precaution, but when street banks are scarce, safety tends to be left behind.

However, in view of the current situation of the Subaru people, it was a necessary expense.

- Well...

"I rubbed the room a lot, but...."

As he spills, Subaru leans sideways to the bedside and stares at the wall.

Beyond that wall, there must be Lem and Louis in the next room.― ― We decided to split the room between men and women, but Subaru was an unintentional result.

Even now, Subaru's suspicions and vigilance against Louis have not been resolved.There is resistance to keeping them together where Subaru is not watching.

Nevertheless, Lem didn't accept the proposal of one room for the three of us.That's why I had to settle down in this shape.

"Oh, oh, Milord. It's been a long time. Thank you, thank you!"

That being said, it was the flop that came into the inn room late.

He throws his luggage to another bed where Subaru is lying and winks while stroking his long forehair.

A magnificent flop, but nothing came up into the room on its own.

I rented this room with him and Subaru.Of course, Lem and his sister are on their way to Medium.

"Ah, I'm sorry, what can I do for you..."

"I don't know. You protected yourself by wisdom. [M]The teaching of "Empire Nation is Strong" doesn't just depend on martial arts. "

"... if you say so, you'll feel better."

As he scratches his seat on the bed, Subaru smiles bitterly at Flop's words.

Regardless of the breakthrough, Flop and Medium's brothers and sisters helped the Subaru a lot afterwards.

I know that you can buy a safe place to stay, but it was the Horn of the Beast that saved you the most.

"I can't imagine how many feet we've seen alone."

It's the Horn of the Beast Louis was carrying, but it's already out of the hands of the Subaru.

I followed Kuna's advice and got the money exchanged at the Gural store.And Flop, who somehow followed me to negotiate the price, helped me.

The magnificent price negotiations between him and the shopkeeper felt like a court battle for a man without knowledge of the law.

Anyway, thanks to this, the Horn of the Beast has been successfully transformed into an Empire gold coin.

A suitably heavy bag of gold coins, which will fund the Subaru Empire.You need to be very careful as this will cover your future travel expenses.

We can't let them eat us just now.

"Hahaha! I'll try everything with dignity first.If your chest is stretched and your spine is straightened out, you won't be able to set it up easily.Soon, unfounded confidence may come true.That would be profitable. "

"Hmm, it's persuasive when someone puts it into practice....."

Whether it's good or bad, the flop is full of confidence.

In some cases, his bluffing may give rise to unnecessary confusion, but the way he's done it is more proof of his right than he's ever done before.

In fact, I am honestly impressed by Subaru's way of being helped.

"But it was a long journey carrying your wife, wasn't it?Why don't you take a nice rest today and talk about it tomorrow? "

"That's an attractive suggestion... when I quit.We have to get to our destination as soon as possible, so we can't waste our time. "

Driven by the temptation of a soft bed, Subaru managed to tear it off.

That's what Subaru said when he got off the bunk, and Flop said, "Great!"I was very nervous.

"That's good, that's good. Sometimes you have to move heavy feet for someone you care about.Like my sister, like your wife. "

"Even though it's sneaky to say so!... can you show me? "

"Of course, it was my offer!"

A flop that taps your chest and makes you feel comfortable.

Upon receiving such a reply, Subaru took the mood and pulled the spirit out of the bed once more and headed to the next room with a flop.

Knock on the door and call Lem in the room.

"Rem, don't you think that's a problem?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just discussing which bed Louis can sleep in for me and Medium...."

"... I see."

"Now you look like you said you should sleep on the floor."

"I thought you were angry, so you didn't tell me...."

In view of the dangers of Louis, the same beds as medium are not recommended.

To be honest, it's best for Subaru to keep an eye on him all night, but in his current condition, he'll fall asleep in a few hours after he starts watching.

I have to trust that I haven't done anything in the last ten days.

--I think it's a very ridiculous idea to trust the Bishop of the Great Crimes.

"I talked to you earlier, but I'm going out with Mr. Flop.I'll go out and buy something for dinner, so let's eat together. "

"I see... I think there are a lot of people here, so I don't have to rely on you anymore."

"I don't know why I suddenly told you that it would be difficult for me to leave!"

"... why? I just said what I thought."

Subaru prioritizes Beginning Perfection while Lem's words pull back his hair.

Inside the room, Louis pulled his hair and waved at the medium that was squeamish.

"Mr. Medium, please do me a favor.If it bothers you, don't hesitate to do it. "

"Seriously? My gemko is in a lot of pain."

"Oh, I can't remember unless it hurts."

Nevertheless, if there is anything, Lem will stop it beforehand.

Now that Louis is playing a role in Lem's mental stability, I am grateful for the itching of my teeth.At the very least, if it is not recognized as playing any role, Subaru will not be able to extract even a minimal amount of convincing information from herself to walk with Louis.

"It seems like a difficult journey, Milord."

Leaving Lem and Louis in the inn, they hit the flops on their shoulders as they stepped out into the city again.

When they say it's a difficult journey, they want to crash out of their knees and say, "Yes," but they'll always have trouble with the flop.

Even so, he and Medium are totally reliable.

I want to avoid putting any more worry and burden on you.

"There's a limit to how many of my 108 best tricks I've got."

"What, I don't think it's a mistake to rely on others if you don't stick with your baby.My sister and I are traveling together, but we're missing each other. [M]Otherwise, my sister and I could both die because of our weaknesses.It's imperial. "

"Imperial Stream......"

A flop shaking his hand and stroking his forehair with it.The word "Imperial Stream" that popped out of his mouth weighs heavily on Subaru's chest.

Perhaps that is the inextricable source of fear that Subaru fears - the difference in values.

In that sense, the idea of the flop is easy for Subaru to understand and is close.However, the impression of the Volachian Empire so far is quite different.

"Not everyone can adapt to a brazen lifestyle or way of being.The important thing is to make your own compromise within the given framework. "

Are we going to make a deal?

"As I said earlier, my sister and I are quite vulnerable when we look at each other alone.But when you two work together, you hide your weaknesses.In fact, that's why my sister and I have been alive so far. "

――――

"Remember, Milord.Me, my sister, you and your wife have lived to this day because they have won all the battles that have been challenged.--I guess I'm an Empire man, too? "

A floppy side-face that loosens your cheeks and asks for praise.

Looking seriously at it, Subaru felt like he had an unexpected talent.Making up for what's missing, it's nothing different from Subaru's values.

Or maybe the Empire didn't understand any of these Subaru ideas.

"That's not all that desperate."

"That said, most people's Imperial Streams often talk about skill!This idea of mine is also laughed at by the feathers of the weak. [M]It's never that common. "

Next to some sort of convincing Subaru, Flop pushes to forbid overconfidence.

But on top of that, he succeeded the word "that's why."

"The idea of adding a price to that skill is also possible.Just like I introduced you to my husband. "

Uu, thank you.

Nodding, Subaru thanked Flop again for his suggestion.

In addition to breaking through the censorship and introducing the inn, the purpose of the current outing - the introduction of the foot and escort that we want to secure to facilitate the journey of the Subaru people in the future.

As Kuna and Holly escorted us along the way to Gural this time, it is difficult without an armed escort to protect ourselves from the dangers on the road.

There is also a limit to Subaru's ability to walk around with a rem on his back.The ideal is a dragon, but if that's difficult, we need brave cows, big dogs, and riders to move around anyway.

Both must be handled with limited military funding.

"Why, it's really helpful that Mr. Flop teaches me..."

"Even if you think about it, you know how to get in and out of a tavern where people from these industries come and go.Horseback riders can talk to you.--Yes, Farrow cars! "

"Farrow, you're making such a mess..."

"It's no exaggeration to say that I grew up in Farrow's milk, because I'm Farrow's grandmother."

While laughing loudly, the flop is enthusiastic about how Farrow recommends it.

However, if you carry heavy luggage, it doesn't go very well with Subaru who want to travel long distances.Farrow is the last resort, as the speed is quite slow.

"Anyway, you should take some safety precautions along the way.... it seems like the Imperial Capital is making a lot of noise just for now.It doesn't have to fly. "

"--The Imperial Capital is noisy"

Subaru raised his eyebrows twinkly, but Flop didn't notice the reaction and replied with his arms tied.

"It is the Empire where the sparks are smoking all year round, but I am concerned about the possibility that the sparks will burn.I don't want to worry about your wife, so I just want to talk to you. "

"Thank you for your concern... By the way, what does that have to do with the Emperor?"

"Vincent Volakia?"

The flop rounded his eyes as if he had heard an unexpected story.Then he immediately shook his head aside and said, "No, no, no."

"I don't want to hear about the Emperor.Nevertheless, the Emperor has been able to calm the country. "

"But you said the sparks were smoking, right?"

"It was the Emperor's arm that was sparking.It was seven or eight years ago that the current emperor was elected emperor, but before that, the empire was more desolate. "

――――

"This disturbance is also under your direct command.Soon, we will return to our homeland of smoky sparks. "

Huh?

When the sparks smoke, it is my hometown and the flop that is so sad.

But Subaru had something to do with his words.- His emperor is in direct command.

The Emperor is trying to do something about the imperial imperial accident?

"On your knees... that's what makes you move when you're on your knees in a true sense.If you don't forgive me for getting on this plane, I won't get a statement like that. "

"Emperor's statement....."

I don't feel a lie in the light flop explanation.

At least he's telling the truth about himself, because Flop has no reason to fool Subaru about the imperial fortress in the first place.

But in that case, Subaru gets caught.

"If Abel's man is truly the emperor, who issued the statement...?"

--No, I feel that there is something wrong with the timing.

Of course, issuing an emperor's statement may be done by the minister in a "secretary" manner, even without the emperor himself.First, if you believe Abel's words, all that remains of the emperor's castle are those who have driven the emperor away.

He would do anything to use his name, even if he stepped on his respect for the Emperor.

It's just...

"Let's just keep an eye on the line that Abel is just a crazy bastard."

If you believe everything you see, you can't survive in the rough plains.

Although it is not always rough here in the Great Seas, it was a manifestation of faith that I wanted to come to the Empire with such readiness.

However, when I confronted Abel himself and talked to him, there were some places where I didn't think that was the impetus I could give to the emperor.

"--Milord, don't face me like that."

And considering the state of Subaru, the flop circled in front said so.

In front of Subaru, who inadvertently stopped, the flop pointed between his eyebrows.

"Fortune doesn't come beneath smiles and things you can't afford.From now on, will you look for someone to accompany you on your own journey?Then we have to look for good luck. "

"That's...."

"Then, remove the wrinkles between your eyebrows and loosen the edges of your mouth to create room.It's a man's taste. "

Play between the eyebrows with your fingers, then the flop loosens its cheeks with both hands.

Seeing his manners, Subaru took a breath.Then, just like he said, slowly loosen your eyebrows and cheeks with your fingers.

"Oh, I forgot. Even so, I'm not eye-catching, so I have to soften the atmosphere at least."

"I'm sorry! I can't help but notice you!"

"Don't take it seriously!My parents gave it to me, so I don't really care! "

I was exaggerated, so I gave it back, but it was even a flop's concern to relieve Subaru's intense tension.

Subaru and Flop went as far as they wanted.

What Flop showed by hand was a hidden tavern at the end of the alley.

"If this is a large group, you should hire a few guards, but if it's just your husband, your wife, and your niece, it's not a big deal.That's right, my sister and I won't be able to keep up until after Gural! "

"But if Mr. Medium does well, I think he'll follow me....."

"If you pull my sister out, I won't make up for my weaknesses. I'll have to die!"

When trust and safety are weighed down, flops and medium are not a bad choice, but they don't add any more debt and inconvenience.

"No, worst of all, get the two of you out of Lugunica.And I want both of them to realize their origins as merchants that Otto couldn't fulfill.... "

"Hey, Milord? Are you okay?"

Before thinking about Subaru, the flop waved his hand and asked how he was doing.

Subaru scratched his head with a "bad" reaction.It was an idea, but I felt it wasn't a bad suggestion.

I'm sorry you took me so far, but...

"Hey, Mr. Flop, can I ask you and Mr. Medium a favor?"

It was the moment I tried to say yes.

――――

--Somewhere, something slightly hard sounded.

△▼△▼△▼△

"--Milord, don't face me like that."

"... what?"

Suddenly, the vision switched as if blinking, and Subaru's consciousness was blank.

In front of the Subaru, the flop points between his eyebrows.He loosened his eyebrows with his fingers, as he preached to the stopped Subaru.

"Fortune doesn't come beneath smiles and things you can't afford.From now on, will you look for someone to accompany you on your own journey?Then we have to look for good luck. "

――――

"Then, remove the wrinkles between your eyebrows and loosen the edges of your mouth to create room.It's a man's taste. "

The flop starts to loosen its cheeks with both hands.

I knew the trick of him.Too much. Just a few minutes ago, anyway.

He repeats the same conversation he had just a few minutes ago.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..."

The sweat was as cold as a surprise, and Subaru covered his face.

Look at that, and the flop says, "Don't hide it, don't loosen it!"but I can't afford to respond to the words.

From what I can see, I also recognize the surrounding streets.

It's the first time I've come to town and I'm not familiar with guarals.Still, it wasn't hard to remember the sight I had just seen.

I mean...

― Back to death ?

Under casual circumstances, without knowing what had happened to me, Subaru forced his cheeks to squeal for a completely different reason.
