There was a downpour of sunshine that made me feel the approaching summer.

There was a single carriage parked in front of the Count Morgstadt family apartment.

A towed horse is not like a normal horse. A horse of high horsepower with a special pedigree.

The construction of the carriage is also disappointing. Metal frame, purple blue front made of demonic material.

At the entrance and exit there was a door made of a metal iron lattice, which served as a mechanism for placing large locks on the outside.

…………

"Whoa, East. What the hell is going on? Now we can clear up and go back to King's Landing, right?

"... I'm still not convinced"

"Do you care? Whether Miss Lavia is the real killer of the Count is investigated in the King's Capital. That'll do."

"But the investigator hasn't even arrived. Yet Miss Lavia has been the culprit since the beginning..."

"Isn't the investigator talking about getting there tomorrow? Our beloved captain of the knight also meant 'to obey orders'. Still you stick around?

"Huh! That's... not that I'm sticking with it. I'm just not convinced."

East says stubbornly, but the knight with him only sighed deeply.

Just in the same place, in the basement of the Count's residence, that knight who was about to be stabbed with a knife by a maid had just come to the dungeon.

"Come on, my lady. Shall we come?"

"We'll solve the magic."

The Alliance Master of the Alchemist Guild puts his hands together and casts a spell at something. When his ring dubiously emitted light, the blue light that was floating in the iron lattice subsided.

"Lady Lavia, please give me your hands here."

…………

"What, you're going outside. I just want you to put some handcuffs on, just in case."

…………

Lavia offers her hands quietly.

Look at that. Your knight swallows a knife.

It's going to break if you touch it, no, the girl who's going to break it just like that even if you leave it alone.

But those eyes are not dead yet. In the eyes of blue when the mysterious lake... needle There is still light earlier.

I think that if I manage to (...) do this, I will run out of manhood, etc.

Of course I know exactly where I stand with a knight. She's a cautionary figure, Count - a suspect in the murder of her real father. I have been contacted by the Knights Commander of Wang Du, or more so, to treat him "politely".

A knight reaches out from beyond the iron plaid and puts handcuffs on both of those hands.

The handcuffs are in the shape of a single sheet of steel with holes in both wrists, divided into two upper and lower parts.

One spot is connected by a hinge, so I pinch and stick my wrists together like a hochikis.

Also Alchemist Guild Guild Master casts a spell. A blue light ran into the handcuffs.

"Not until tonight, but it's tough."

"I don't mind. In the evening we will reach the king's capital."

"Really? Then I'll do it."

"Thank you. - Miss Lavia, let's go."

The knight casually says and opens the key to the chamber.

……

At that time, the knight felt like the air was nice —— sealed, even though it was underground.

"Air holes, I guess."

Forgetting the slightly floating suspicion, he took the Countess out of the dungeon.

Lavia, who was taken out of the mansion by a knight, was blinded by the strong sunlight.

That I've been locked in the basement for the past few days. She also felt a strong shock to her body that she would be exposed to sunlight from the front in this way when she thought it was even rare to go out.

"Are you okay?"

The knight frowned and supported her body, but as a knight, Lavia also cared, but there was another thing that bothered her.

It is a carriage that is supposed to carry Lavia.

By its side, there are two knights-- that's what I knew because I was one of them.

There are another four more.

He's an adventurer who hits the convoy. But what the knight was asking was, "Send a party of four high-ranking adventurers from escorting the lady as well".

But there are four men.

One of us is not an adventurer, he seems to be an associate of the Adventurer Guild.

I've already started something like East and Mouth for trouble.

"What do you mean? Isn't he a different adventurer?"

"Having said that, adventurers have the convenience of adventurers"

"You must be from the Alliance. Why don't you follow the instructions?

"As an Alliance, it is a decision that you will have no problem as long as you are an Adventurer who can make your designated request"

"Do you fool the Knights of the Kingdom"

"What are you saying? Isn't that the neglect of the Adventurer Guild?

The bad news is that the three adventurers who seem to hit the convoy are drunk. Or it could be a hangover.

It's East's most hateful move.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, submaster. Let's get out of here. At night, there's a shop in Wangdu that I want to go to."

"That's right. It's a mess in a second-class city like this-- whoa, is that what you're talking about?

"Ooh... that's quite the top ball"

Raise the inferior laugh. I also hang up as East.

"I don't serve as a escort or anything in this condition!

"Oh? Knight. Hey, I heard you got a request from the Adventurer Guild from extra (...) over there? Look, I'm just saying this on my own."

"But what about you as adventurers? So drunk!

"So, hey, hey. Mostly this girl is lonely all her life, isn't she? I have no aristocratic allies either. Then someone might attack you. I'm just an escort."

"... you even told the adventurer that!?"

"Because it was necessary"

East is biting his teeth critical to the Submaster of the Adventurer Alliance with a firm face.

"Miss Lavia, can you walk?

"... Yes"

The knight -- gentle to women, this knight escorts firmly and takes him to the carriage.

The man came and unlocked the lock behind him. Put Lavia in there. From a glimpse, the interior seemed narrow but tidy and comfortable to move around.

"... shouldn't she still be escorted by us"

Whispering, East told two other knights.

"Say stupid. You know as much as you can't. Even we were at the Mansion the day of the Count's murder. I can't move until the investigator gets here."

"You can call the knights from the king's capital."

"I guess you're asking the Adventurer Guild because you're short of hands in this war... and besides, no female knights exist in our country"

"Even an adventurer would be a man!

"That's not what we arranged. Come on, East."

…………

Three adventurers over the lattice stare at Lavia and whistle.

East staring at it with a face called Bitterness Max.

Regardless, the knight of the lady doesn't feel well either.

"Um, it's time to leave?

"Hey, mister, come here."

And the knight of the lady called unto thee, and whispered.

"You're the only one with the key, aren't you?

"Yes... it seems so"

"Never open the door even if those adventurers ask you to open it. There is no such thing as self-control. This case involves the royal nobility. In case there's... you're the one in trouble."

"Yes!

Then go.

He returns to the table, suspicious of his actions.

The adventurers who saw it also spanned each horse.

The carriage moves away from the Count's residence.

"East, we're going back inside. When I write the report, I'm ready to welcome the investigator."

But East, he didn't answer.

I was just staring at the direction of the carriage's departure.

He was depressed.

A job caught in the reward of breaking is coming with a noble escort - and a murderer.

He was even threatened by a knight. Don't trust an adventurer who hits a convoy.

"Next.... Hmm, suspect transfer to Wang Du? I'm listening."

At the gate that leaves Pond, your servant showed him the request. A guard checks inside the cell, suppose there's no problem.

"Be careful, though it's close to the king's capital."

"Yes......"

The man drove a carriage.

It creeps through under the thick outer wall. The carriage went into the shadow of the outer wall.

……

I felt uncomfortable.

The foot of the horse carrying the carriage felt slightly heavier.

Your man has been a veteran for 20 years on this road. I also notice a slight difference.

Looking back.

On the left and right rear, two adventurers are running their horses as they scuff their yawns.

Looking back forward, Nogusa is running the horse that he's a party leader.

"Nothing particularly unusual... if so, the road surface"

Out of town, the road got rough.

It's not paved, though it's trampled in the streets.

Different sensations on the road surface probably made the horse's feet heavier.

"You're heavy...... but just get it over with"

Every, every, every, the carriage proceeds.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, make a small noise and the key bundle shakes.

Rank C Adventurer Nogsa-Garage was in a good mood.

It was also good to have been promoted to Rank C unexpectedly early.

It was also nice to be able to embezzle a hell of a sum of escort duties contracted by a party of four unminded women called "Oriental Four Stars".

It was also a good thing that it was a porn entertained whorehouse but quite a beauty variety that was fooling around with second-class cities.

And it was good that the girl to be escorted was beautiful.

Everything is going well.

The world revolves around me —— I even thought.

The escort assignment was a bit of a job.

From Pound to Wangdu, 6 hours by carriage.

I pinch horse breaks every 2 hours, so I have a break point twice to Wang Capital.

At the end of the first break, on the move —— Nogusa, who had been awakened by a certain drunkenness, aroused interest in the subject of escort in the carriage.

"My lord."

Nogsa, who was moving forward, sent his horse toward you.

"Yes..."

"Give me the key."

"What?"

"It's the key to the carriage. I'll take care of it."

"Yes, yes, no, but this is--"

"Do you know who I am? Adventurer, this is Nogsa from Rank C, right? You think you're going against me?

"Meh, meh, there's no annihilation!, it's just that this request involves aristocrats --"

When your lord was making excuses all the time.

"Hey, Nogusa! Before!!"

Reach for the sword on your hips immediately and exercise perimeter vigilance.

He's a Rank C Adventurer even if he rots.

"What... are you going down?

From the shade of a tree by the street, it was a man who seemed to have entered the woods with medicinal herbs, fruits, mushroom collection, etc.

"Shh, excuse me, could you keep the water separate? I got lost in the woods and just finally came out..."

…………

Nogsa signals to his servants and companions with her chin. Go ahead, he said.

"I can't help it. All right?"

"Oh, thank you!

When Nogsa went down the horse and offered him a water bottle, the man received with great joy.

"Um... that's all I can do in return..."

What was offered was a sleepy herb.

"Chip. I don't need that stuff. Just go home."

"Is that okay? Thank you. What a heartfelt man."

"Oh, yeah. Spread my name instead of thanking me. Nogusa-Garage. A man who will be a hero."

"Hero...... yes, I get it"

As Nogsa spanned the horse, she chased a carriage moving forward.

The two buddies, who were deploying back and forth, return to their first formation when they confirm that Nogusa is coming.

"It's hard to help people."

"That's the flavor of an adventurer, isn't it?

"If they're women."

"Hey!

3 people laugh at you.

Nothing, a smooth escort assignment --.

of, should have been.

"... what?

It was when I took my second break.

From the reluctant man, he was forced to roll up the keys to the carriage —— I hit him one shot and he became honest -- and Nogsa opened the keys to the carriage with a nasty grin, like, "Say hello to the lady of the warrant," etc.

The girl lying on the horizontal chair —— no, the sheets were stuffy and fuzzy.

Turning the sheet, it was filled with pillows and cloth.

It was a camouflage that someone was there.

"... Huh?

I don't know what it is, it's just, Nogusa's voice leaks.

A narrow carriage. A carriage that was locked. The watch was on all the time.

And yet neglected —— the subject of the escort, Lavia-Di-Morgustadt, disappeared.
