Vermillion

Kay won.

It was an overwhelming victory as the other players abstained one after the other.

The "HangedBug" pavilion, which was immediately recognized by Dietrich-Aurelius-Wulvern-Akland, the next successor to the Duke's grandson and returned from receiving some of the prizes, is now undergoing a lot of noise that he called a celebration.

"So long" best hunter in the Principality, "Hope for further prosperity for Kay, cheers!!

"" Cheers!

At the center of the tavern, Holland took the head, and everyone raised their cups in unison to match it. Some acquaintances like Mandel and Edda, and other athletes I met at the tournament, and the general public who just stayed on the spot also took part in the feast.

And Kay, surrounded by them like that, was in a good mood for a drink.

"That worked great, Kay! That was overwhelming!

"Hehehe,...... sort of!

Praised by Eileen, who lines up on the left hand side, Kay gets his nose high while illuminating.

"The contents of the qualifier itself were generally within the assumption. I wasn't so nervous."

"…… Damn, other players are a disaster."

It was Mandel who pinched the table face to face, leaned over the cup of distilled liquor and squeaked.

"I know Kay well from the beginning.... the first people to compete with you would have been desperate."

"I decided to do it with all my might."

Once again, Mandel smiles bitterly at Kay with a floating attitude.

"Totally. I don't feel like blaming those guys who abstained on the way.... when they show so much difference in strength, it usually breaks my heart"

"No, but Mandel was amazing, too. I never thought I'd have that use for that short bow."

"What, that's like street art. Even Kay should be able to do it.... but it looks like Kay was no match for the craftsman."

"No, I honestly respect the courage with which you tried it under that circumstance and the courage with which you actually succeeded. You can't imitate me very much. Honestly, I was in a pretty hurry then"

"Well, did you at least succeed in rewarding him with one arrow? … it's an honor to be respected by Kay"

That's how Mandel shrugs his shoulders, but he actually wins after Kay in the tournament. Even though it was a Wolvern-sponsored tournament, it was an unusual situation where Gentiles and civilians accounted for two of the top winners, apart from military archers and mercenaries.

"But the truth is, I might be glad to lose to Kay. … I would be relieved if we were still in the final."

"Yeah, that was unexpected on the boulder. I didn't know it would come in that shape."

"I never thought you meant the usual gear."

An emotional mandel, a funny kay, Irene with a squeaky face and a look back at the finals to the Trinity.

"But your brother would be fine. 'Cause I believed you!

From under the table, on Kay's right hand side, a slightly brown-skinned girl appeared. It's Edda, Holland's daughter.

"" Grandurus "is why I did it. As much as that, there's nothing your brother can do about it!

"Well. I was pulled up in the middle of the squad, and when I suddenly started, I might have been in a hurry for a boulder."

"Brother, you weren't panicking at all, were you? That was so cool!

Kay rocks the cup in a face-to-face mood with a glittering look at the hero.

"... thanks. But this time, I had a last minute announcement, which is a lot better than when I was a big bear."

"Ha ha, if they say so, the other player is shapeless!

A breath of alcohol from behind. Looking back, there was a look at Dougmar with a red face.

"Yo, hero! Are you swallowing!?

"Yeah, I'm swallowing it. Not as good as you."

Stand aside and let me show you the cup in your hand. In contrast, Dagmal seemed to swallow straight from a tiny pot of wine.

"Haha, swallow it - I swallow it! Oh, my God, it's free booze! Huh!?"

"Huh? No, I'm going to have it accounted for by myself."

"………… What?

Kay blew out puffy at Dougmal, whose expression fell off with a red face.

"I'm kidding, what are you serious about?"

"... Temeye, you freak me out!

Dagmal decides to head lock Kay and grinds his temples with a jug of wine. "It hurts," I laugh, but I think Kay is so horribly swallowing the payment. But at this point, it didn't matter.

"Okay guys, needless to say again, today is my luxury! Swallow!"

To Kay's proclamation, whoa, and the surroundings boil.

"That's good, that's good -!

"That's the winner -!

"Yo, General, chubby!

Everyone has nothing to lose to Yoisho Kay. Kay overlapping orders with an even better interest and lots of other schematics to enjoy the benefits. Next to Kay, Irene looked "ahhh," but didn't imitate it as innocent as stopping it on a boulder.

In the cheerful air, the Dwarf-faced master of the tavern said, "Not enough booze!" and screaming delightfully, the employees, including Jamie, are busily flying around among the guests.

"And you're so allergic, was that archer in the finals okay"

"Yeah, he did."

Turning the story back to the final, Kay inquired, Dagmal, armed, often with a face,

"Anything, he said, his right shoulder was eaten a thousand times and it was huge. He gibbed it up early, and a high-ranking magician was specially treated because it was the final, so he saved his life. Now he's pimping without a scratch."

"Well, that's superimposed"

"However, it seems that the wound can hardly return to the sensation of the arm even if it heals. They say the army might quit."

"Hmm, is that so………"

A plate of gotri and skewered grilled meat was placed before Kay, who had a sinking face.

"- I wish I was injured. I can't get my senses back."

If you follow a thick arm - a Dwarf face with a hook. It's Derrick.

"I used to get arrows too... thanks to you, now I'm this one."

Pong, and Derrick letting me slap him on the right knee. Kay also makes a point as to whether that's what was going on when he was dragging his leg and walking.

"Were you a warrior too?

"A warrior, a mercenary."

He puts his nose on his head in embarrassment, and Derrick turns away.

"Even so, I was a celebrity when I was a kid."

Instead, as happy as he was about himself, Dagmal stepped out of it.

"You're a root power fighter, when you're in battle, you've smashed down enemy forts walls with an axe." Giant "Denner," Red Nose "Derrick.

"You, the next time I give you that name, I'll pull your tongue out!!

To Dagmal's words, Derrick yells at him with a blue muscle on his forehead.

She looked upset, but her face was red and her "red nose" was accentuated the other way around, and Kay and Eileen burst out of liquor. Dagmal laughs lightly at Kays, who hold his mouth and twist himself, "Yes, no, I'm sorry, Dad. My mouth slips..."

"... well, anyway, when I was just a mercenary, I took good care of myself. Become a father."

"Whoa, this guy used to be just a dude. The first time I took him out to the battlefield, that was the snot, not even Shomben."

"Ah! Wow! Please don't talk about it!

Dagmal panicking to the exposed tale of becoming a serpent. "We're eating -" "Don't talk dirty," Wilderness flies from the field, and for some reason, wood plates and leftover bones can be thrown at Dougmar.

"Iteiteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

"Collar! You guys are not making it crude to eat! And throw the store stuff. Eh!

"Wow," Red Nose "pissed off -!

"Run!

"- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!? I'm gonna kill you.

Derrick, with his eyes running blood, rolls his sleeves around and storms at the voice-over. The sound of a chair flipping, the sound of a plate cracking, "Hi-yah," "You or Oraah!" and flying screams and yells. Even though the feast had only just begun, the venue had already shown the appearance of chaos (chaos).

"Oops, I want to have fun too -!

Jamie with a tearful eye holding a jock all over his arm while the shopkeeper wreaks a brawl. While gloriously avoiding the hands of sexually harassed fathers trying to touch their asses, resentment stares at Kay, the root of all evil.

With Goblet in one hand, Kay looked at Derrick's grandstanding with a laugh. It was a level of noise that could have even caused the injured, but he's quite drunk around laughing plainly.

And then, naturally, next to that left side, Eileen fits in and wraps her arms around her, and from the right side, Edda pulls on and is sweet to Eileen.

…………

The fact is that Eileen is approaching Kay even with her horns and the older girl (Edda). In the meantime, I am surrounded by musty sexual harassing fathers, sweating and thoroughly supplied - Jamie, who unexpectedly stopped moving, became a fumble, distant eye. Not to mention a gap, but a sexually harassing hand that is stretched out to your ass and thighs.

"- Yeah,"

Eventually, Jamie nodded like a blowout, putting the dang jock together and putting it on a nearby table,

"- I stopped!

Refreshing smile. He abandons the tray on the spot and pulls the distracted guests into the kitchen.

And I thought I'd be right back, and I put a tart of wood in my hand.

Knife, set up at a nearby table with a fork, smiling at all kindness, talking to Edda, who is sweet to Kay.

"Hey, lady. I have a treat for you. It's a wooden tart. Want some?"

"Wow, yummy."

Edda is caught in a tart and takes a seat with Tokotoko. and Jamie, with an evil smile, stays right next to Kay.

"……… hey, brother. Come on."

While loosening the chest string of her clothes and highlighting the valley of her chest, Jamie felt comfortable with Kay. Kay, decent for the abrupt color trick, cheeks the tart in the back of it and says, "Shit!" and Edda, who opens her eyes.

"Why don't you come out and fuck me?"

Send a flush as you tease Kay's chest, drawing the letter "of" with your index finger.

When no one is around, it is a special attack that has been stacked over and over again with Imetre. Unleash in full.

…………

Irene looks out of Kay's shadow and sends a slight, bottom-cold gaze. Freezing killings have also been unleashed, but Jamie withstood with courage. I pretend not to notice Edda protesting by slapping him on the back with a tart.

"Hmm..."

Meanwhile, Kay in the vortex tilted the goblet outdoors calmly, - either the man's sex (sasa) or his gaze was drawn to the valley.

- As much as it can be done, there is just something to emphasize.

If Eileen is to be used as a meadow, this is a mountain. The smooth skin of wheat is reminiscent only of the rich fruit of nature. There will have to be something easier to do with that offense - Kay is still a man, so he's going to stretch under his nose.

But it was also only a level of interest, and it never moved my mind too much with wonder.

Is it because alcohol makes me feel more concerned?

Or is it because Eileen's tangled left arm raises a blemish?

"… No, I'm sorry."

Either way, Kay put the goblet down and gently pulled Jamie's body apart.

"It's a nice invitation... but I already have someone to love"

Say it with utmost seriousness, and let Irene's forehead, held in her left hand, mouth it gently.

Irene blushes her cheeks quickly with a smiling face for a moment. Hiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I don't expect to be instantly shaken so far, and I'm stunned, Jamie. And Edda with a desperate look behind her.

"Oh my... I'm still confident in style."

I also insist that the skirt is slightly raised to the point of accentuating the valley. Behind it, Edda stares down at her body and squiggles.

"That's right..."

"Alone all the time, you might get tired of it, right? A new stimulus. Yes or no?

I knew my destiny was impossible. Fix the tactical target downwards and go for the mistress's seat. but still, Kay, slowly shook his head sideways.

"You're not going to get tired of it. I'm crazy about Eileen."

When they say it out in a straight face, they get stuck in words by a boulder. As it was, Kay began to flirt with this gaze, holding Irene ashamed.

"Kay, Kay, I'm embarrassed, we're all watching..."

"Do you mind? If Eileen were here, I'd be fine."

"If you say no more kay…………………."

The sweet air of the lovers as pictured, the surrounding faces are also "uh-huh" and they are already hungry.

Next to Edda, who looked even more envious, Jamie bursts into the table.

"Uh-oh. There must be a gap to get in."

Jamie bites his teeth even though it's an excellent property for a thousand times. The guys around me said, "If you're a good guy, there's more!" He began to make a vigorous appeal, but he didn't see it in his eyes.

"- Yes, already! I'll swallow you! I'll swallow enough to take a bath -!

Did you get fucked, "Bring the booze!" Jamie exclaims. But a big shadow grabbed its root and lifted it straight up.

"What the hell, you're the one carrying the booze."

It was Derrick who put Keri on the brawl. With a sunny smile as I wiped the returning blood splashed across my face,

"Now, the break is over. Let's work - like a carriage horse!

"Yay! I enjoyed it too!

"Ha ha, it's time to write in the corner, you can't waste it"

"Kuh... I'm gonna get you out, I'm gonna get you out somehow"

"In the meantime, you washed the dishes. Pleasure, there's plenty of it."

"I don't like it. - Whoa!

Jamie, jerking off on her shoulders, disappears into the kitchen as Derrick takes her. Leaving the front. No, shedding.

Edda occupied Kay's right neighbor with a plate of tart that had only eaten two bites yet.

"... hey, brother. Do you want to tart your brother too? Delicious?"

"Oh, that looks delicious. Shall I?"

Kay interrupts her flirting with Eileen to Edda, who has spoken innocently. Is it due to the decision that it is not good to soften in front of a young child? Flirting Irene's eyebrows jump on Edda, who distorts the edge of her mouth and turns her gaze.

"Yes, brother. Ahem."

"…… Ah, thank you."

To the tart Edda has been offering with a pure smile, Kay can't say "I can eat it myself," but hangs around in embarrassment.

"Mmm, delicious."

"Right?

Beside Mogmog and chewing and satisfied Kay, Edda pointed a slightly provocative smile at Irene.

…………

Eileen also intercepts it with a calm (...) or (...) smile.

The night of the feast was still to come.

†††

Next morning.

While suffering from a hangover headache, Kay manages to wake up, dragging her heavy body.

"Ugh... I swallowed too much..."

"Kay's not sloppy to that extent!

"……… Eileen, who said that, is well."

Even though Kay and I enjoyed ourselves late last night, Irene, laughing off in her clothes, doesn't look tired at all. Is it because of your mind that Eileen looks so much more powerful in such a fundamental part of her body as basic health or vitality?

As for Kay, to be honest, I wanted to live a rotten life with Eileen for a while because she won and got the prize money, but given the process of obtaining citizenship, I can't relax. Before the heat of the militant tournament cools - while I'm motivated by the bureau humans, I need to end it early.

"... Oh, good morning..."

When I got down to the dining room, Jamie, who had eyes like a dead fish, was cleaning.

"……… Morning."

"Whoa."

"……… Ugh."

It was Jamie, who already felt like he had a crush somewhere, but he saw Kay and Eileen, who had been friendly with him, and he was damaged even more for some reason. He replaces the sceptre with a sceptre, while being struck by a vertigo.

"…… Are you all right?

"Ugh...... it's okay. It's okay. It's nothing..."

"Is that so………………"

Though he drank a lot last night, Kay is the type to keep a good memory even if he is drunk. Naturally, I remember Jamie's color tricks perfectly - but the person at the time, apparently, wants to decide there wasn't. Even as Kay, I had no objection.

While serving Jamie like a zombie, he packed plenty of breakfast, including fruit, sandwiches, and soup from last night's banquet leftovers.

And then the Kays will be feathers spending an entire day in the process of obtaining citizenship.

First, take the award for the victory of the militant tournament to the Resident Administration east of the city.

I went out first thing in the morning, so the administration wasn't crowded, and I was able to get into the building smoothly. And as soon as I submitted the award, I had a faint expectation that my ID would be - but unfortunately, I shouldn't have.

Kay applies for Wolvern's "honorary citizenship," the essence of which is basically the same as ordinary citizenship, although it can be prefixed with 'honorary'. However, the manner of procedure and jurisdiction laid down are subtly different from ordinary applications.

All the conditions were fulfilled, including the track record of winning the militant tournament, the ability to pay taxes and the advance payment of the costs of the various procedures, but the staff of the key bureau were not used to the special task of 'honorary citizen's procedure', which made it even more time-consuming.

When Irene and I had been briefed on our rights and obligations for a small hour and finished signing the documents in advance, the official in charge said, "I don't know the format of a particular document". Tens of minutes to pinch the break for confirmation of the rules, and what a distracting answer an official has pulled back on a waiting phrase is "substitutable with ordinary documents". At the same time as the signing of this document was completed, it appears that for some reason the jurisdiction of the operation left the hands of the Resident Administration, and the Kays were to be moved straight to the City Office.

At this point, the time is before noon. There was a long line of residents before the city council. A few dozen more minutes to line up with it, when we finally reached the point of contact, it was discovered that, in fact, a dedicated point of contact was available for the procedure of the Honourable Citizen. I found it completely futile to have lined up heavily, and was frustrated by the lack of prior explanations.

Even then, he was the feather of walking around the city of Wolvern, having been forced to fill out numerous documents, to go to the guard's stall for a no-crime certificate, and to return most of them to the Resident Administration because of deficiencies found in the documents, and the sun was about to set by the end of all the procedures at once.

Still, ID cards will not be issued immediately, but the examination of documents will begin the next day, from which, after interviews and several procedures, identity cards will be issued in the clear. In the case of the honourable citizen, it was expected that it would end in three days at the latest, as it would take precedence over the ordinary procedure.

"…… so I've been busy today."

"Office work, is that it?... That was a disaster."

While dining at the "HangedBug" pavilion tavern, Kay and the others were foolish about Mandel.

Tonight's meal is combined with a farewell party. It was Mandel staying at a different inn from the Kays, but they're leaving Wolvern tomorrow. Just as Holland was leaving for a business trip to Satina, she also introduced Kay and decided to accompany him as a guest.

"By the way, Mandel, did you say anything about the agent?

"Oh, there it is. The army told me about the treatment of a hundred men in the Archer's army.... but I said no."

"Did it happen? And you said no, it's a boulder."

"Oh, because once you're in the military, you can't quit easily, and you're going to be the feather of moving to Wolvern. … I think hunters are better suited to sex."

Floating, shrugging shoulders, Mandel.

"Of course, the pay is attractive though. … but still."

"The village of Taaf is better,"

"……… Ah."

"In fact, money isn't always enough to have a good life."

If anything, carry the salad to your mouth, Eileen.

"Right. Just for the record, when I was asked which one would be better, Taaf's village or Wolvern... Taaf. I only stayed there for two days or so"

Kay shrugged emotionally. Surrounded by forests and meadow greenery, the view of a small rural village brightens up. To my mind, Kay and Irene now live in Wolvern, but the journey began in that village. Reminds me of the faces of the people of the village. - No retaliation for bandits, on the assumption, but it seemed to Kay that the village of Taaf would still be more comfortable than Wolvern, where there is an exclusivity.

"Why, that's an easy village to live in. It's richer than any other village. By the way, what about Kay who says so? … what is the story of the officers"

"For once, I'm here. He wants to be greeted as an archer by the army, just like Mandel. However, you never talked about a hundred people or a post like that."

"Mm-hmm. … that's another weird story."

"Kay, you're winning. Hira, I thought so too. Is it discrimination?

Irene frowns, looking as dissatisfied as she is about herself. I don't care what the post is, Kay doesn't work for me, but I don't feel good if they still treat me unfairly badly.

"I don't know. Experience or lack thereof may be seen at first sight. … I was originally born in the army to ten chiefs, maybe I had a record of that."

"Did you?"

It's a surprise. I didn't know Mandel was in the army.

But Kay thinks. When we recovered the bandit's artifacts in the village of Taaf, even if we saw a tragic body, Mandel was the only one who could not be disturbed. Mandel may have thrown herself into what was supposed to be a "battle" about ten years ago.

"But is that all? Kay.... I thought if you were as good a user as Kay, you'd get more deductions."

"Yeah, if it was personal, a few voices were called. To the warrior who said he was from the eastern border," Why don't you join our mercenary regiment? "'You asked me out. So far, I've turned it all down."

"Hmm.... by the way, what a mercenary regiment was that?

Asked, Kay narrowed her eyes and glared at the void in an attempt to remember.

"…… What is it? Irene, don't you remember?

"It's just...," Bronze Rose "or something, that's the name, I think"

"Bronze rose"! That's a pretty big one over there, known in "Battle" as the big mercenary regiment alongside "Giant Wings". Don't the Kays see what I'm saying? "

"No, I can tell somehow. He was surprised when he said no for a reason. You were famous..."

Afterwards, we had a hard time discussing the servants, the army, and other loveless chatter and stupidity, and the farewell party was held around the drunk area. It seems Mandel is early tomorrow morning and said no drop-off is needed, so this is a while to say goodbye. Kay asked Mandel to send his regards to Anka and the Cronens, the Taaf village magicians, and to the Montanese family, the arrowmen of the city of Satina.

When will I see you next?

Kay puts his mind to it as he gobbles with Eileen in his own room.

In the first place, it was unexpected that Mandel and I were reunited.

This world without easy communication technology or means of mobility. If you have the next chance to see each other, is that months from now, a year from now, or...

†††

Three days have passed.

I interviewed the mayor of Wolvern, submitted additional paperwork, and had a lot of trouble, but Kay's ID was finally issued.

It is a rectangle with a flat hand size and is made of sturdy parchment paper. After Wolvern's seal judgment was pressed, his rights as an honorary citizen of a person named 'Kay' were surprisingly written in abundant language, and at the end of the day, the mayor's signature was written. On the back there is a place to write and sketch for Kay's identification, and autograph.

It is most desirable that this signature is not necessarily readable, but 'difficult for others to imitate'. After all the troubles, I decided to write "Keiichi Nagawa" in Kanji straight away. It will be very difficult for the residents of this world to read and imitate.

"Finally, this day is here, Eileen..."

"Oh, wow. I think I've been waiting for a long time..."

The two of us walk along the First Wall with distant eyes.

It was a month ago that I tried to get into a first-class city to go to the library and ate a gate advance. Another month has passed, or should I just say a month? Either way, there is something emotional.

With some pride, I arrived at the gatekeeper who took care of me last time.

"Oh, you guys."

"I've been watching the tournament. Congratulations on winning."

There was no need to speak from this one, but young and elderly guards, each of whom spoke.

"Thank you, thank you. That's why I took citizenship."

I took my ID out of my nostalgia and handed it to the elderly. A guard who jumps up his helmet cheek and looks at him at first glance, keeping his ID far away from him.

"... um, Kaich-Nogawa, it's definitely him. Go through. Okay."

Smile with a grin and I'll get my ID back.

"Ah, but only he can pass by that ID. Your daughter is…………………."

And the younger guard came between his mouths.

Yes, in fact, the identity card holder is Kay, and that doesn't have any effect on Eileen.

I mean, Eileen doesn't have the right to go through the gate.

but.

The Kays did not panic.

(I think how much time I've taken to get through the fucking cumbersome process......!

I already anticipated this. And the countermeasures were also contemplated.

Holding Irene's shoulder, Kay declared clearly.

- She's my wife.

Wife Believer. If the citizen holding the identity card was a parent, even if the wife was not a Wolvern citizen, she would promptly give this her rights and duties as a citizen if she was only one.

In other words, if Irene is Kay's wife, she has the same rights.

Irene dyes her cheeks in the light as she wraps her arms around Kay's declaration.

This is, for once, a convenience to get through the gate.

(Someday, I'd like to have a proper ceremony)

Kay thinks. As for Kay, he still has to wait, more than he hasn't clearly concluded that Irene will stay in this world, but he wants to get married for the ceremony sooner or later.

(... But how do you do a wedding in 'Here'?

I doubt it. There are verses in this world where the spirits of all elements exist as they should, but therefore, conversely, religious ideas are diluted. I guess there's something close to a Japanese eight million way of thinking, but at least I'm sure the form of marriage isn't the 'I swear before absolute God' type.

(... yes, the temple of the Spirit of Eurian Water or something, I wonder if the wedding can be celebrated. Will the bride wear a dress even here......)

Imagine Irene's wedding dress, Kay inadvertently loosening her cheeks.

Kay niggles at Irene with her hands on her cheeks, imagining herself as a future bride. Whether smiling or depressing - either way, there was a peachy space there that just bored the others.

Under his helmet covering his eyes, the young guard has a flashing look and the older one is grinning bitterly.

"- Well, okay. Indeed, by the rules, if the daughter is his wife, she retains the same rights as you."

To the words of the older guard, Kay and Irene nodded satisfactorily.

Now, finally, really finally, I'm free from the cumbersome process -

"So,"

Softly, an elderly guard offering his hand. Is that a handshake? I mistook Kay for an unexpected shake back, but there he is a shocking word.

Let me show you the marriage certificate.

…………

Kay barked.
