Soul Eater of the Rebellion
Episode 39: Arrival in Berca
The wind is roaring in my ear.
The scenery under my eyes is replaced one after the other like a paper play.
The red mountain of Mount Skim, which can be swept through the sky. Mirrored Lake Toya waters spreading in front of it. A cleaved cliff of attendance reminiscent of a giant sword.
All of those sights viewed from the sky are worth a look. On the way to Berca on the Klau Solas, I was thinking about that.
Suzume and Lunamaria on board seem to agree, with many exclamations coming from their mouths. Sometimes there are screams crossed by an exclamation, but this was due to Klau Solas changing his manoeuvres to avoid clouds.
The two unfamiliar with the high-speed manoeuvres of the Wingbeast (Wyburn) cuddle up to me every time the saddle (Kura) rocks heavily. By the way, right now we are spanning the saddle in the order of Suzume, me and Lunamaria, and Suzume is pointing backwards, not forwards, to stabilize his posture. I mean, he was facing me from the front.
When both sides hold strong in this state, the density increases and a rather troubling structure can be created.
- Just in case, I didn't bother to let Klau Solas take rough manoeuvres, yes.
Together, it won't take three days if you get on Klau Solas, either by carriage or on a long journey to Berca, which requires half a moon. At this rate, we will be able to reach Berca by noon tomorrow.
To add, Krau Solas alone can also reach Belka in a day. The ability to fly the Blue (Indigo) Winged Beast (Wyburn) that I got serious about has reached that level.
But doing so will also greatly increase the burden on the rider. There's nothing wrong with me if I'm alone, but it's cruel to ask Suzume and Renamaria for just as much strength as I do. We've both had a lot of experience on Klau Solas, but this is the first time we've had a long high-speed flight like this, so we really needed to pinch a break. For that matter, the time to reach Berca will be extended.
- Well, if you look at two people full of energy and motivation, you can wonder if you really need to pinch the break.
Slightly, I put Klau Solas down on the ground for a second break, but the two of them are moving around worthwhile preparing lunches and feeding Klau Solas without even showing tired bareback. It should be noted that the contents of the lunch box were made by Priest Saila and Suzume together before departure.
Ok, I joked that I would buy it in words, "Then let me know what you think as a price," he gave it back as a prank, and I was in serious trouble. It should be noted that Renamaria, who was nearby, added with a tickling laugh, "I make one too, so I'm glad you guessed who made which one," which was more troublesome.
After years of picking herbs on black bread and garlic, I can't tell the difference between the flavors.
But giving up here undermines my majesty as an ally of the clan. Perhaps Lunamarian cuisine doesn't use meat, and Suzume cuisine is dominated by mushrooms. I just have to mobilize all my knowledge around here and manage to get to the right answer. I was so determined - the result was miserable.
At a time when we were both making meat dishes considering my preferences, I couldn't even hope for a correct answer. It's a happy, sad, complicated mood.
While we have that conversation on the road, we continue to make our way to Berca. Fortunately, there was no trouble like this, and on the second day of leaving Ishka, our vision showed a sandstone wall protecting Belka.
With Belka in sight, I grated Klau Solas into an invisible mountain and walked to the castle gate. This is the same way as when Ilia and I came together.
Speaking of fruit, at first I was also thinking about riding the castle gate directly at Klau Solas. If the Dragon Knight came without touching it before, its presence would instantly spread throughout Berca. If that turns out to be a rumored dragon kill, I'm a one-jump person. That must make it easier to gather manpower and information.
It's just weird and conspicuous, "I'm going to defeat Dragon Slayer and give him a name! It is also a troublesome story to be made fun of by people like Considering the winds in this city that I've seen and heard before, there seems to be a lot of people (from time to time) in that hand.
So I decided to avoid the flashy appearance for the first time and give priority to rendezvous with Ilia. Hear the current situation in Berca from Ilia's mouth and then publish the facts of the dragon killing, if necessary.
Fortunately, my nostalgia (two places) contains references to Pope Noah. It was addressed to Cardinal Cyrala, the head of the land, and if you show me this, the Temple of the Law will help me. Even in that sense, I didn't have to rush to sell my name.
While I was thinking about that, I arrived at the castle gate.
As I said before, there is no human state west of Berca, and we do not need to worry about spies and spying in other countries. For this reason, the security of the castle gate was extremely loose and almost barely bare when he arrived.
So, you'll be fine this time too - a lofty (or even) voice sounds like you're laughing at my optimism like that.
"Those there, stop!
Exactly on the verge of trying to knock through the castle gate, three men appeared with the voice of who (what) and whispered their hands to go. If you look behind you, this one is blocked by the same number of men.
Six for both. They are all armed and still scattered with intimidating air.
You feared the entanglement, and the people around you go away like scattering spider children. The men don't even have eyes on you, so the purpose would definitely be us.
Unexpectedly, I lose my temper. He said he came all the way on foot like this never happened, so why are they teasing me early to arrive, I...
Suzume wears a proper hat, so I'm not looking for a ghost horn (one). Well, what can I do for you? I don't care what you think, though, because of the killer look over there.
"What can I do for you?
I didn't want to cause useless noise, so I respond as politely as possible.
While doing so, I turned a blind eye to my opponent's movements. Since the men's arming does not belong to the Canary Regular Soldier, it would not mean a Berca guard. On the other hand, the six men are wearing the same type of armor, and what can be said is that they belong only to the forces.
And the leader and the bumpy man stepped forward and shot me through with a needle-like gaze - no, this is not me, this is the gaze directed at Renamaria behind you.
"You're the elf behind this."
"Yes, as you can see"
Lunamaria, with her sage robe together, wears a hood to avoid Berca's strong sunshine, but her characteristic long ears remain out. If you ask me if it's an elf, I'll have to say it's an elf.
Then, the leader nodded greatly.
"Right now, our 'Desert Eagle' is after an elf criminal. I'll check the elves there, so let's get you to headquarters."
"We just got to Berca today. I don't know what the elves you're chasing did, but it's got nothing to do with us."
"Here's where you judge that. Just follow me. It should be noted that refusal and flight shall be deemed guilty plea"
Unilateral assertion that there are no shards (pieces) that you intend to hear this one. When I heard that, I exhaled through my nose.
Decide you're not the one to be polite to, stop saluting and shrug your shoulders.
"That's a lot of rambling talk. From what I've seen, it's not like a guard. I don't think you guys have the authority to investigate."
You feel derogatory about this attitude, or the leader's face is badly distorted. Kacha, the metal noise was a signal that the men put their hands on the weapon.
"Do you defy 'Desert Eagle'?
"I told you we just got to Berca today. Eagles, I don't know what you're talking about when they call you eagles."
Well, as far as the attitude of these guys goes, I know it's an organization that's not even Rokuro. I think about that in my heart, and I stare at the six people before and after me.
And I heard Lunamaria whispering right behind me.
"Master, I would be fine..."
Renamaria, who knows I'm trying to avoid making a scene, says she can follow them. It would also be a demonstration of confidence that even if they were taken to headquarters and to do so, they could cut through.
But I swung for the first time and rejected Renamaria's proposal.
I really didn't mean to make a scene. but aside from the story if it came from the noise. Keep your head down for the matter, bend your knees, crouch your crotch and avoid distress - I don't have such a deep conspiracy. If the request is for the surrender of a companion, it should be noted.
Isn't this how the elves in the matter were also put to sin? With that in mind, I called out to Suzume.
"Suzume, I'm not telling you to stay back."
I need you to stand next to me, not behind me, more than I brought in as a force for the clan.
When I told him that, Suzume said in a powerful voice, "Yes!" I have replied. There is no surprise or fright at all there. For this matter, in the future, even if these people tease me when I'm gone, Suzume will be able to act without fear.
And the leader has raised his voice and intimidated us to boil our business, which never frightened us.
"I'll tell you what, our 'Desert Eagle' is the only A-rank party in this city's Adventurer Guild. If you turn us into enemies in this city, know we're not sorry!
Of course, that intimidation has no effect on us.
From what I've heard before, I was concerned about the expression "the only A-rank party" because Berca should have two sets of A-rank parties enrolled, but I wouldn't get an answer here at the Inquiry (not) Nerd.
It's time to settle, or I'll take a step (yippo).
I hung up the edge of my lips when I looked at someone who was under barometric pressure.
