Tearmoon Empire Story

Episode 3: A Luxurious Reception

After the tea party with Emeralda, I went around to the powerful people of the Imperial City to root out the roots.

After several meetings, tea parties, and greetings, the summer vacation was over.

"If anything, just leave the children and Bell alone..."

Meer embarked on his journey to St. Noel, gloriously passing through his father.

"This summer was quite a strong army..." Equestrian battles, Schubert, the Clausius family... Huh? Maybe this is just a little bit too much. "

and so on... I'm rubbing my arms. As a result!

"... it's weird, isn't it?"

The reality was... so cruel.

Nevertheless, the carriage in which Meir's party was riding crossed the Imperial border to the Verga Duchy without anything in particular.

The Pilgrimage Route between the Imperial Capital and the Duchy of Verga is known as a very safe road.

It's a safe place where people come and go, and there are almost no bandits. Therefore, it is also a place where it is easy to be alarmed... "

"Hmm, I thought maybe the snake would attack again, but it looks like I'm worried." Some things are unusual. "

I would never want to see him for a while! I never imagined the mood of a snake.

Well, it was meers who wanted to return to St. Noel in such a leisurely fashion... but a group of horseback riders came from the front.

"Oh... what's that?"

It wasn't like they were going to raid us. Rather, it's a group that is slowly coming towards us.

"I wonder if it's the Commercial Corps?" Or maybe a private regiment of nobles somewhere...? Oh, by the way, when I returned to the Empire, I met a group of horses like this... how is Hildebrand? "

Without being particularly vigilant, Meer looked at the sight...... and opened her eyes the next moment.

Meer-san, it's been a long time.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Rafina?

It was Rafina Orca Verga, the Saintess of Verga, who led the riding.

“I'm surprised at this. Rafina-sama, you can now ride a horse by yourself....."

Unexpectedly, Mia saw Rafina riding her magnificent horse.

The horses on which Rafina rode were moon horses and flower horses. Hanaya was originally a good-minded horse. "Even if you're a beginner, it's an easy horse to ride..."

--That said, considering that you've never ridden until the other day, it's a very good improvement.

"Fufufu, what do you say? I practiced during the holidays. Now you can always go on a long drive with Meer-san."

Seeing Rafina's heartlessness, Mea takes a breath and switches to Yoisho mode.

"Oh, that's Mr. Rafina." You've already ridden the horse completely. "

"Ah! But of course, I didn't wear horseback riding just because I wanted to play with you." That way, you can go around the villages in the desert that you can't get to by horse-drawn carriage, and you can get in touch with many people. Isn't riding a horse given by the heavens an essential technique for a saintly lady...? "

Raffina, who said something spectacular, unintentionally called out to me.

Fufufu, you're talking about something like Senpai Marlon, Mr. Rafina.

"Then, I'm going to say such a thing..." At that moment, Raffina hardened. However, I immediately smiled coolly... trying to open my mouth to say something...

"That's right." Grandmother Meer, during the summer vacation, if you play with Senpai Ma Long in the name of horseback riding practice..... "

"...... Mr. Bell"

A clear voice that suddenly sounds... Niccoli, a crystal-clear...... Rafina smiles like a crystal-clear spring even if not one of the fish lives there.

In response to that smile, Belle hurriedly blocked her mouth...

"Ah, it was a dangerous place." Almost, the letter of the Bishop Emperor appeared in the diary again. "

and other disturbing jokes.

Somehow, I don't know, but I felt like Belle was swinging with the tail of a sleeping lion. Meer quickly changed her story.

By the way, you brought the rough storm, too.

Beyond Meer's gaze was a storm pulled by Hanayang's boyfriend.

The rough horse she had seen for the first time in a long time made me feel as close as if I had been reunited with my comrades.

"During the summer, I've been riding in the easterly wind all along, so Fufu, I miss you."

If you don't mind, I thought I'd bring you here to ride with me, but how about that?

Rafina tilts her neck small. Somehow, it was amazing... because she looked like she was riding a horse with me...

"... that's right. Recently, I've been accustomed to the gentle riding of the east wind....."

After seeing the direction of the rough storm, Meer smiles.

"Sometimes riding a rambunctious horse is fun." Well then, Mr. Rafina, I'll give you a break. "

Meer hurriedly changed into a horseback riding suit.

"Fufufu, I'm going away with Miss Meer." Ah, and I'm looking forward to the tea party later... "

Behind Raffina, who smiled a little bit like that... for some reason, there was a full of intelligent horses that followed her quietly...

It was Rafina who didn't notice at all.
