Episode 171: The itinerary, to Rodania

After Rio took Flora and ran away. Silvi and the others looked up at the sky with a smiley face, while the leis left on the ground looked up delightfully. Then...

"Oh, my God, have you escaped?"

And I say with a mouthful that Reis seems swallowing.

".................. what are you talking about so long!?

When Silvi returned to me, he changed his blood phase and spoke to Reyce.

"You don't mean long. I'm still having trouble with this. Anyway, you let Princess Flora escape because of you. Honestly, there's nothing you can do if you can fly away from the sky."

Reis responds, "Oh, boy."

"Eh... now it's more Estelle than that. Do you want me to return Estelle?"

Sylvie took a big, deep breath to contain her anger and asked Reyce to hand over her figure as she saw Estelle surrounded by Lucci and the others.

"Oh, so are you sure we can secure his figure here?

Rayce says, carving a niggle and a grin as she looks at Lotus under her fainted eyes.

"And the pattern of the range!

Silvi tells in a tight tone.

"Ha. It's really greedy. Well, before we do that, why don't we just talk about the future? You attacked Princess Flora, too. If it stays that way, you can expect the Kingdom of Rubia to be in a bad position, right?

Reyce went way off topic.

"Oh, you say that!?

Silvi screams furiously at the boulders.

"You'll be the one who made the situation worse by moving on your own regarding this one. If I waited at the inn, I would have handed Princess Estelle over after everything was done."

"Don't lie to me! Then why was Estelle under the Flora Princesses?

"No, Princess Estelle is. You don't know Princess Flora, do you? I stepped on it that I wouldn't be in danger, and let it be used. You messed it up and ruined everything."

Reyce made the most seemingly illustrative statement and let him feel sorry for himself.

"Knock..."

"Well, it's a promise. I'll return the princess Estelle's personality. After this discussion, including how to handle the brave man's personality, right? I don't think it's a bad story for the Kingdom of Rubia either, but how about that?

Reyce suggests to Sylvie, who looks remorseful.

"Keep the hostages secure. You think this is a discussion? More than Estelle's in front of you, you can take it back with all your strength, right? And on top of that, I offer you an apology to Restoration for your neck as a souvenir."

Silvi provoked with a swordswallowing face.

"Aside from whether you can accept them as an apology to that extent, if that's the case, we'll use these two as hostages, too, right?

Reis chops a nibble and a grin, provoking back without getting her hair in between.

"Try it. That's your time."

"Hehe, that really intrigues me...... well, fine. Now, give me back my princess Estelle."

When Silvi told him in a sharp voice, Reyce just ordered the Lucci and the others to observe. Lucci and the others follow the instructions and try to get Estelle under Sylvie...

"Don't you touch Estelle, Elena!

Silvi stopped Lucci and the others and urged him to carry them to Elena, the captain of the knight, instead.

"Understood."

Elena moves quickly and heads under Estelle.

Lucci and the others put their hands up to him and appealed for irresistibility. By the way, Estelle, whose upper body was originally naked, Elena is getting her clothes messed up during the battle ahead. At that point, there was no surgical ceremony floating around Estelle's chest, so Elena doesn't know how Estelle was fainting.

"How's Estelle doing?

"I have a pulse. I thought you were just unconscious now."

When Silvi asks, Elena answers instantly.

"Right..."

Silvi sees Estelle's fainted face and breathes small.

"It's a waste of time even with barren interactions like this. In the meantime, let me move on. Keep asking."

When Reyce told him that, he just cut the conversation without waiting for Sylvie to reply.

◇ ◇ ◇

Meanwhile, the location is southwest of the Kingdom of Rubia. Forests near the border. Over a few kilometers away from where Rio fought with the Silvis.

Rio was holding Flora with his left arm and flying straight southwest. Flora is desperately clinging to Rio's body.

Flora nodded her face at Rio's chest, but from time to time, she was surprised to try to see the surrounding scenery. It's just that the air resistance is awesome, so it's even hard to look forward. Having a conversation can be a little tricky.

Incidentally, we are not flying now, as usual, forming a special space with the spiritual art of the wind, but releasing a storm of magic from the cutting edge of a sword gripped with our right hand as a propulsion force, pushing through the sky. So I can fine-tune the direction I go, but I can't fly around freely as I normally do.

(... there's no sign they're coming after me. Through the woods. It should be time for the border to be close. land around here)

Rio slowed down the speed of flying one by one when he made sure there was no chaser behind him. Did Flora notice that too, looking up at Rio's face in awe?

"We're going down to the ground. Hold on tight as it will land a little rough. Keep your mouth shut so your tongue doesn't bite."

Rio raised his voice and drew Flora's attention.

"Yes!

Flora also raised her voice and concurred. When Rio confirmed it, he began to lower his speed and altitude slightly. The distance from the forest under my eyes gets clogged.

But at the same time, the cuts in the forest were visible forward. Beyond that lies the foothills of the mountains, which are roughly untouched by men. When Rio chose the appropriate rock skin as the landing point, he manipulated the sword he gripped with his right hand to adjust the speed and direction, and pushed straight towards it.

"Huh..."

Flora trembles and trembles because it falls to the ground at a good rate. Rio, somewhat in proximity to the ground, re-grabbed the sword of his right hand he had previously stood backwards, swinging it down toward the ground. Then a powerful storm blows from the tip.

The wind poured down to the ground and pushed the Rio's falling speed to death. Rio keeps releasing wind toward the ground, approaching the ground at a slow rate.

That way, when you put your foot on the ground...

"It's okay now. Safe, landed."

Rio talks to Flora, who was meditating on her eyes and holding her.

"Yes..."

Flora opened her fearful eyes and agreed with a shuddering face.

"Can you stand on your own?

That's what Rio says, trying to get Flora, who was holding him, to stand alone on the ground.

"... Yes"

Although Flora fluttered slightly, she stood properly on the ground with her own feet. However, the face is still shaky and the focus is not clearly defined.

"Did I surprise you a little? Even though it was an emergency, I worked a rough imitation and I apologize"

Rio smiles and apologizes to Flora, seemingly slightly offended.

"Oh, no..., no, that's not true"

Flora followed and denied, staring at Rio's face blurry. Then, he gradually distorts his face like it's cut.

"... maybe you don't feel great?

Rio asked worried about Flora.

"Yes, no, it's not, it's not. I'm not, I'm sorry. I, what can I apologize for causing trouble to Master Hart again because of me and putting him in such danger because of me..."

Flora tells me if she is suffering from strong guilt or if she looks terribly sorry. But...

"No, please don't worry about it"

Rio didn't seem to give a shit, but shook a float or something. But Flora's expression remains dark. All I'm saying is that I've done it again, and it's sinking badly.

"I'm sorry, really, really..."

"I don't need to be so sorry. It's not like Flora's bad."

Rio laughed bitterly at Flora, who drowned over her face.

"No, it's my fault. Because I was there, that guy named Lace attacked me. Isn't that what you said?"

Flora waves her wearing in a sense of self-derision.

"Even so, it's still not Master Flora's fault"

Rio told him clearly.

"... but it's not just this time. Because I'm here, always bother someone. That's what happened in that village, and even the demon ship was attacked before that. Even you, Master Hart..."

And, Flora crooks her face in tears, leaning down and talking. But...

It's not a nuisance.

"... Huh?

When Rio made it clear, Flora looked up as if she had been struck by surprise.

"At least I don't think it's annoying. They're the ones who have personal causes, even for me. The battle ahead was meaningful in the sense that we were able to know the movement"

And, Rio tells Flora to say it. Sure, from Flora, he probably thinks he was pushed into a desperate predicament because of himself.

But it was a very manageable situation for Rio. And I actually let him deal with it. Sometimes I found out because I got involved. So it may have been a hassle, but it doesn't mean it was annoying.

"... Hart, Dear"

Flora grabbed her fist in a grip and gave her a peek at her face filled with strong guilt and self-loathing.

"Are you not convinced?

Rio asks with a troubled face.

"... I, for a long time, have been ill-conceived, trying to be self-conscious as a princess, sweet, I just ask someone to protect me, I don't see reality, I'm a useless child"

Flora spoke strongly of shaming herself.

…………

Rio doesn't know what to say, he listens in silence.

"Even this time. Best of all about myself, don't even try to figure out how many people you rely on Master Hart and have no sense of crisis, and how many people you've bothered in that demon ship raid, and how many you're bothering while you're doing this now... I hadn't even imagined it until I met that guy named Lace. Even when Master Hart was covered in ice, he was too scared to move..."

And when Flora exposes her impudence all the way -,

"Do I qualify as a princess like this? What is a princess? I'm just going back to Rodania like this, and I'm just going to get my feet together again..."

I voiced my doubts in a terribly weak, unsure voice. I wonder if a person named myself is a necessary being at all, or a person worthy of protection from the surroundings?

"... you are a princess. I am Flora-Bertrum, the second princess of the Kingdom of Beltram. You were born a princess. It doesn't matter about qualifications or anything more than having that fact. It's worth more than you can show as a princess."

"Huh..."

When Rio said it was hard, Flora shook her body frightened. Because it also seemed as if a human being named Flora was worthless and only worthy as a princess. But...

"But there should be someone in Rodania who needs you, worries about you, and wants to protect you, regardless of whether you were born or worthy of use or anything like that. Different?

Rio now speaks and asks in a slightly gentle tone of voice, as he tells.

"Eh... no, I'm not there"

Flora opened her eyes haha and moved her mouth small.

"For their sake too, you must return to Rodania. Different?

"... must be"

Flora moving her mouth firmer in the future than earlier.

"Let's go, then, to Rodania. I don't really need to bring it on this occasion. Flying through the sky manipulating the wind with the Devil's Sword is also an intense use of magic, because from here we will run and cross the border. I'll be in a bit of a hurry."

Rio decidedly invites Flora. Then...

"Yes!"

Flora nodded quietly, but with a powerful voice.

"Now, if you'll excuse me,"

Rio quickly approaches to hold Flora back. But before...

"Um, Master Hart"

Flora spoke to the fearful Rio.

"What is it?

Rio stops in front of Flora and tilts his little neck.

"How can Master Hart help me?

Flora looked up at Rio's face and asked.

"... I was able to help, so I helped. It doesn't matter if you're a princess or not."

Rio is somewhat honest and communicates his own answers.

"Thank you, Master Hart..."

When Flora smiled like she was hanging up, she said thank you in a heartfelt sorry way.

"Now it's time for you to excuse me"

As the word goes, Rio can hold Flora this time.

"Please, Master Hart"

Flora asked Rio with a core voice. That gaze looks straight southwest.

"Yeah, I'll be in a bit of a hurry, so hold on tight"

Rio tells him so and runs towards the southwest border. It was then eight days later that the two of them reached Rodania in the Kingdom of Beltram.
