Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit

Mr. Zara accidentally finds me while tracking down Deputy Berley's fiancée.

What a dumb Urgas and me.

At the very least, I wish you'd just done a little disguise.

Zara narrowed her eyes and looked at her with surprise.

This is a street lined up with shops you can't easily come to on a knight's salary. It would be strange to have us on thin pay.

How do you explain it? See the side of Urgas all the time. I lowered my brow butt and had a ball of sweat floating around my forehead.

No. "What shall we do, Squirrel?" he says. Are you afraid of Zara?

... Oh, no, Zara looks a little scary today. I watched as I stared at Urgas.

Can I be honest?

I'm in the middle of (or less) confirming the truth of the rumor, so I guess I shouldn't spread it too much.

It is about getting involved in the personal life of Lieutenant Berley. After all, you better not tell me.

I'm sorry for Zara, but I managed to delude her...

"Maybe, a date?

"Chi, no!!

After a hasty denial, I get hacked.

Yes, I should have said a date. But I'd be in trouble if Mr. Zara mistook me for such a close friend with Urgas.

I don't know exactly how to get in trouble, but I thought I didn't like it anyway.

"If it wasn't a date, how could Mel and Jun be here?

She asks me if it's a mission, but I shake my head when I'm not.

We will never be allowed to use our knightly duties for our own convenience. That's all, I clearly denied it.

"Then what are you doing here?

"Oh, that's"

From earlier on, I went through all the men and women who seemed to have money.

I guess it's a place about ten years early for us.

How do we escape Mr. Zara's pursuit? Though I think about it, it's white in my head and nothing comes to mind.

"Um, Lislis, health soldiers aren't bad. I got involved..."

"What do you mean?

Urgas will explain. In the end, we ended up talking about washing things up, not being able to hide them.

"I see. I've heard some bad rumors about him."

Ms. Zara used to be a Kingsguard knight of a princess who went to her neighboring country to marry her. Since it was a workplace with a lot of female knights, they heard a lot of rumors about that hand.

"Mr. Art, that's where you met Deputy Berley, isn't it?"

"Yeah, it is. At that time, Anna was very kind to me."

Mr. Zara first belonged to an elite unit, and later the captain came in? After that, he was transferred from an elite unit to a Kingsguard unit where Lieutenant Berley was.

"Mr. Zara and Lieutenant Berley, that's how the captain was connected."

"Yes, it is."

The three had a close atmosphere before Mr. Zara was assigned to the second unit.

"I met Mr. Art when I was working in the city cafeteria."

"Yeah, yeah. Jun was so cute when we met."

Urgas looks happy, even with the illuminated look on his face.

This kind of thing, I think I'm cute too, to be honest with him. Normally, boys about this age are in rebellion, and they're twisted.

"What are you talking about? Let's go into the store."

"Huh!?

"Oh, that!

Zara pointed to a luxurious restaurant. White Asia walls, heavy oak doors. A sign with a small store name hanging from the roof is shaking.

Not so much possession, I sweat on my forehead. Urgas also stared at the store in the face of tension.

I told him how honest I would feel if this happened.

"Um, me and Urgas, we don't have a lot of hands,"

I'm sorry, but I also get Urgas involved. I glanced sideways and nodded. After all, they don't have that much money in hand.

Zara smiled refreshingly at us and said something extraordinary.

"I'll give you the luxury. A little early, but let's have lunch."

That's bad... and looking at Urgas face to face brought more deafening information than Mr. Zara.

"Kai Hal Talk just walked in."

"Huh!?

"Hey, my God!

While we were turning our backs on the store and talking to Zara, Kai Haltalk apparently entered the restaurant. Oh, my God.

"Mr. Zara, you knew about Kai Haltok,"

"Yeah, because he's from HR."

For once, it seems that it was Kai Haltalk who suggested that Zara, who was about to retire, be retained and treated as a suspended employee.

"A knight seems to have a lot of comeback. So tell me it's definitely better to take a leave of absence."

"I see."

"Even after he got back as he expected, the process, he made it quick. You got it better, didn't you? So when I heard about Anna's marriage, I thought it would be nice..."

Again, as Urgas told me, he seems like a guy who can do his job.

As long as you get better at femininity, you'll have nothing to say.

"Anyway, let's go inside. If it was Anna who was meeting, I'd be relieved."

"Right."

It's exciting. Please, may it be Lieutenant Berley. I went into the store praying to God.

High ceilings inside, open. The suspended chandelier was dazzling. There's a bright red carpet on the floor, and Urgas and I get all nervous.

After all, it was a fancy store too soon for us.

Though there was an indication on the reception that "I will not allow you to bring in my favorite animals other than phantom beasts," the album was either because it looked like a collar roll or because I couldn't blame it.

A man in formal clothes came and showed me around.

Unlike a man with a woman in a dress. My personal clothes, you didn't get caught up in the store dress code often. And some rough personal clothes from Urgas.

"Mel, Jun, you don't have to worry about it. Because it's a store I know."

"Oh, really?

"Mr. Art, you have a wide face"

It's a fantasy beast shop.

"Oh, I see"

Apparently it's a store run by a member of the Fantasy Beast Conservation Bureau. You think there's gonna be phantom beast enthusiasts from all over the world? Not only that, but the food is delicious and seems to be a popular store in Wangdu.

He said he seemed to have made a sign today modeled after Blanche, and was about to come check on the pattern.

"If I had a phantom beast, it would cost less than half."

"Really?"

Unfortunately, I haven't brought Amelia in today. Although there are fairy albums and nix.

The way I was guided was on a wide floor. Men and women in formal attire are enjoying their meals.

He leads me to my seat, and the waiter pulls me a chair.

When Mr. Zara asked for something, he was no longer in the meeting.

"I asked for the right menu."

"Thank you, Zara"

"It helps."

Horrible also during the bundle. The waiter brought me some water.

Oh, my God, it's a glass of crystal. In the light of the chandelier, even this sparkled.

Urgas, who drank the water, groaned, "Water, delicious".

I thought the water would be water and I drank it too...

"Water, delicious"

He was whining about the same thing as Urgas. I wonder what it is. It was cold, citrus flavored, and very tasty water.

Can't we take this on an expedition? I'm worried about how to make it.

Where the consciousness is leaning towards a different person, Zara talks to me.

"Mel, Jun, that"

Ahead of what Zara indicated with her jaw was Kai Haltalk.

It was Lieutenant Berley sitting across the street...

"Not really, right?"

She was a blonde, beautiful sister.

I get discouraged.

The woman received a bouquet of flowers and gifts from Kai Haltalk and smiled happily.

I don't look like a family member.

Even close acquaintances.

That sweet vibe would be between lovers.

Terrible. I can't believe you think of other women while there's a guy named Lieutenant Berley.

But this would be my view. I asked Zara what she looked like.

"That's - right. It's hard to say, but I think it's between men and women."

"Oh, no."

But this alone is scarce in judgment material.

In the meantime, I decided to finish my meal and keep tracking.
