"Hello, boy. My name is Salva-Lazur. He is the second prince of this country. It was on the brink of something that we met in the vast desert. Let's get along."

A man named Salva famously with a slimy smile on his face.

I thought it was a nobleman or someone in an equivalent position, or a higher royalty.

Why is it royalty? Why is there a royal family in the middle of such a desert? There are a lot of things I want to break into, but it would be rude not to name me after the other person.

"Al."

"Yeah? Is it just Al?

"Yes, it's just Al.

"... I see. Then let's do that."

The conversation said, "You're not a civilian, you're a nobleman, right? - No? I'm just a civilian, right?".

I wonder why they found out.

I'm not as elegant as Erinola's sister or Sylvio's brother, so I shouldn't look like a nobleman to you.

I felt like a man who couldn't be alarmed from the first encounter.

"This is the guardian chandelier."

Chanalia-Kilfsur.

Unlike Salva, the woman who calls herself Chanaria is not off guard.

I said it in a hard tone somewhere.

"I was sorry that Shanalia suddenly pointed her sword at me. After all, I was royalty and she couldn't sense me at all."

"... I didn't realize I was at that distance."

Salva laughs strangely and Chanaria mutters somehow with remorse.

If you were to evaluate me as the prince's escort, it would have been a shame if you hadn't noticed me.

I guess I regret it because I know it myself.

Hmm, I was just lying down, and I wasn't hiding anyway.

I feel like I've suddenly had a strange trouble, but I can't help it.

"Are there many ruins here?

"Oh, there's a long time ago civilization around here. Most of them are broken and buried in the sand, but there are a few things that are left in beautiful condition like this."

Looks like there were civilizations around here. I'm just a little happy that my guess is correct.

"Oh, that's right. Excellent, Ruins Survey"

"Well, it's just a waste of time. If you say you're investigating the ruins, you're free to walk, and if you discover anything, it's a feat."

When I was properly hammering, Salva hit me.

Chanaria next to her had a headache, but she could no longer be careful.

So this is what Salva does normally.

... this prince is more free and appropriate than I thought.

So what's Al doing? Whoa, you know it's cool in the shade?

"I was on my way to Rajerica to buy spices."

"... huh? Big one?

"Yes, but...

I see. I see.

When I said so, I felt Salva's smile deepened.

I have a very bad feeling about it.

Honestly, I don't want to stop in the eyes of too great a person because it's coming with a metastasis. If you get involved with the royal family, what impact will it have in the future?

Well then, I'll go.

Wait, wait, wait.

I tried to leave quickly to avoid trouble, but Salva stopped me.

"What is it?

"We were just about to go back to Rajerica. Why don't you come with me? The desert is too dangerous for children to walk alone."

Salva comes up with a smile and a nice smile.

Honestly, nothing but annoyance. Because I can move with the metastasis.

Except if you have eyes. We can't use the metastasis to move around, we'll have to go with the Salvas.

They are accustomed to the desert and have plenty of time.

But I'm coming out of the Mansion. If you don't come back by night, your family will be suspicious.

This development is very bad.

"No, just your feelings are fine...."

"No, no, if you let the boy you met in the desert go alone, his reputation as a second prince will be damaged. I want you to come with me here."

Um...

Sure, I don't look like I can fight, and I think it's dangerous to cross the desert, but it's my own fault.

Is it a royal reputation that comes out without witnesses or witnesses?

Honestly, I don't know what this person is thinking.

If there's one thing I know, it's that you're going to follow me for any reason.

Maybe even if you argue here, you'll give me a reason. If I succeed, my royal rights will probably be used.

I see.

Hmm. Well, then, let's get going.

When I nodded, Salva walked out laughing in a good mood.

We have to get back to Coriat Village by nightfall somehow.

I was to be accompanied by Salva and Chanaria, and as the sun shined, I went into the desert.

Of course, as usual, it's not metastasis, it's walking.

Anyway, you've lost it. I didn't expect to see people in such a desert.

Moreover, the opponent has become royal in this country. I can't use metastases either.

I'm sorry to say that I walked across such a vast desert.

Can we get back to the Mansion by nightfall?

The first thing to know is how much longer it will take to get from here to Rajelika.

"Mr. Chanaria."

"What?

"How long does it take from here to Rajelika?

From what I've seen, neither Salva nor Chanaria are on the ZOM. My guess is that it's not that far from Rajelika.

It is not impossible to return to the Mansion by night if the distance is half a day.

I doubt if I'll be able to break up with the royal opponent as soon as I get to the city, but I can force them to move away.

Well, you can still do it now, but I'd like to avoid anything suspicious if possible.

"A straight line doesn't take a day, but it depends on the weather and the number of monsters."

"What do you mean?"

"It can take more than half a day and in some cases more than three days."

I see.

Thinking about sandstorms and monsters, I can't get past the shortest distance...

But this is good news. Anyway, the shortest distance from here to Rajeka is about half a day.

That means we can go back to the Mansion by night if we don't make a detour.

"Why do you ask me that? If you were traveling alone in the desert, how much would you know?

Ugh, that's right. If we were to move the desert by ourselves, we could certainly calculate that amount.

My question earlier was too peaceful.

"The road to Rajerica was my first."

"Al has the guts to go on his first route in the desert alone."

Salva laughs like that when she makes excuses.

"More like recklessness. If what you're saying is true, you're quite capable."

... perhaps the desert of the Kingdom of Lazur is more dangerous than I thought?

Thanks to magic, I didn't benefit from the heat and moved quickly due to the metastasis, so I didn't feel it at all.

But from the point of view of Salva and Chanaria, would I be quite the brave one?

The ground vibrated when thinking about things like that.

"Al, back off!

"Yeah."

He was upset by the sudden events, but immediately retreated in response to Salva's voice.

Then, the sand in our direction of travel rose with dopahn, and huge plants emerged from the ground.
