Me and Celia were summoned to Faraes after training, to the captain's office.

I generally know what these calls are. Perhaps you have a mission.

"Well, both of you, I think you know, I have a mission."

"I knew it..."

"Yes. Somehow, I felt that way"

We snort slowly at the words released from Pharaoh's mouth. After all, as expected, it seems to be a mission.

"This mission is an escort mission."

"Escort duty… the same as when Mr. Orfina..."

"Oh, or the same thing up to my client..."

"Huh?"

Me and Celia were surprised by what Faraes said.

The same to the client means that Mr. Orfina is the client. I had no idea it was a request from her.

"Maybe I'll give you an escort until you get back to town...?

"No, I'm not. That's because the knight from the other town was in charge..."

"You in charge?

I'm a little caught up in Faraes' words. Because the word was in its past form.

Its meaning is found in the following words of Faraes:

"Oh, Mr. Orfina is already in this town..."

"Yes!?

"Are you already here!?

Me and Celia were surprised.

Mr. Orfina doesn't know anything about this town.

If you're here, it's something my sister, Sona, is likely to show off as barely as anything, but that shouldn't have happened at all.

"Instead of me, it's like I didn't even know Sona."

"Huh?"

"I hear you're here with patience..."

In Faraes' words, we understood.

In the first place, I didn't even know Sona. Then it's only natural that we don't know.

Nevertheless, being here with patience is amazing inside.

Daimyo, I know it's something like trying to surprise Sona, but it's pretty daring.

"It's a problem, but I can't help it either. Anyway, it's this mission to escort that Mr. Orfina. Oh, by the way, I've been nominating you again, haven't I?

"Really..."

This time too, Mr. Orfina seems to have been an immediate nomination.

The Knights, there should be no such system, but I guess they can do so because their position is a position.

"So what kind of escort is it this time?

"Oh, right. Mr. Orfina, what can I get you?

"... he wants to take a tour of town... so that escort is on this mission."

"Tour the town......"

The content of the mission appears to be the escort of Mr. Orfina, who tours the town.

I just get caught up a little bit. Faraes is not very clear.

"... could that be..."

"Oh, somehow, I think so..."

From that, we expected.

What this mission is all about.

"Well, maybe you could think about it as much as a tourist guide. Of course, it's best to protect them from what they attack..."

"... after all, is that right..."

"It's kind of an unfettered assignment..."

Apparently, this time it's a tourist guide.

Of course, we have to protect Mr. Orfina from external enemies, but he won't, such as what strikes him all over town.

"Both of you, still, don't be alarmed. I don't know what it is."

"... right"

"Sorry, I'm a little distracted"

But in Faraese's words, we reflect.

Just in case, it's our part. Never be alarmed.

"On any mission, I will not be alarmed. That's what we Knights of the Holy Way do."

"Oh, okay. Make sure you do your job."

"Yes. I'm going to keep my mind on it!

That's how my new assignment with Celia was decided.

◇ ◇ ◇

I was told the assignment, and for a while, Celia and I were helping Faraes with his work.

"Well, it's time to go home"

"Oh......"

"Yes."

That's what Faraes said when a lot of work was cleared up. It's a good time to go home, both in time and timing.

"Yeah? Slade, I'm sorry, but will you come out?

"Oh."

So the captain's office door was knocked.

Faraes told me to open the door.

"Ah, Mr. Slade."

"Ah, Slade"

"Mr. Cannon, and Sona."

There, Mr. Cannon and Sona stood.

The two of you must have come here to see each other by the time you left.

"Well, just come in. Faraes, is that all right?

"Oh, let's get that done"

In the meantime, I decide to let you two in. Because I haven't finished cleaning up yet, so I need you to wait.

To my words, Faraes nodded, so there's no problem.

"Well, excuse me."

"Excuse me."

The two came inside the captain's office.

Inside, Faraes and Celia continue to clean up.

"Faraes, how are you?

"Ah, yes. It'll be over in a minute, just a moment."

"Yes."

Then for a little while, we cleaned up.

◇ ◇ ◇

As the words put it, Faraes quickly finished cleaning up. Me and Celia got cleaned up, too, so that's it.

"Well, shall we go home then?"

"Ah, Captain Faraes, wait a minute"

In the meantime, Sona raised her voice.

Looks like we need to talk. The contents are largely clear. Perhaps, Mr. Orfina, it's about tangling.

"I'm going back to my house today. I have a sister..."

"Oh, I see, I see."

Apparently, Sona's going back to her own house.

There, Mr. Orfina awaits. Probably going back to spend time with my sister.

That's how we got home.

◇ ◇ ◇

I was walking with Sona.

After I got home, I talked about how it seemed pathetic to let Sona go home alone.

That's why I decided to drop Sona off. Though a member of the Knights, let a woman walk on the night lane, because she does not sneak.

"Slade, I'm sorry"

"Yeah? Nothing like this. What do you mean?

"Oh, what's that, too, but I wanted to apologize for your sister,"

In the meantime, Sona suddenly apologized.

I thought you meant this escort, but that's not all. Somehow, I can predict what Sona wants to say.

"You mean the mission?

"Yeah, it was a weird assignment, and I nominated him, and I'm really sorry"

"I don't mind that either. Any assignment, proper, would be the job of a knight..."

"Slade......"

As for the mandate, it had already been resolved within itself. By the time Faraes told me, the story was over.

That's why I don't care that much.

"Oh, nomination, the Knights aren't such a system..."

"Sona......"

But Sona seems to care a lot.

For her, I guess it's unforgivable that her sister made a request like a tourist guide and even made a nomination.

This looks tough on Mr. Orfina, too.

"Ah..."

"Whoa..."

Within that conversation, I could see Sona's house.

Then, Sona leaves a step forward.

"Thank you, Slade. That's enough."

"Well, see you then. Don't blame Mr. Orfina too much, do you?

"You don't know that."

"Well, I don't know what else to do..."

That's all I'm saying, Sona runs away.

I'll go to the front door of the house and wave to this one.

When I respond to that, Sona goes inside the house.

Now we're done dropping him off.

Let's just say I go home, too.
