There are seven traveling members in total
Aisha, Eris, Ghislaine, Aelmoia, Cline, Luke and me
Among these six people, I can only confirm that three are truly loyal to me.
The carriage we used was a carriage pulled by two horses. After all, we wanted to return home in a low-key manner.
"Ah, to know that such a wonderful person has come to this city! How cute you are. Those firm, beautiful eyes, and seemingly flowing long hair. Like a real angel... No, it's like a goddess has come to the world! When I saw you for the first time, I already fell in love with you!"
Huh? Which woman did Luke start hooking up with again?
Wait... the women present...
I raised my head suddenly and found that Luke was courting Eris. Greyrat
Oops... this guy...
Just when I wanted to say something, Luke spoke again
"If possible, could you please tell me your name? Ah, of course, that's no problem, if you don't want to tell me your last name. I just hope that your beautiful name can be engraved on my heart, at least as a comfort."
Luke said intoxicatedly
This is the first time I've seen him look like this
How could that playboy become like this...?
"Ah, you won't tell me your name. Then at least, please grant me the honor of giving these beautiful hands a kiss. Only then, I..."
Luke was halfway through speaking, his body trembled and he suddenly fainted. He was attacked.
To be precise, I punched him from the front.
Eris. Greyrat punched Luke in the face from the front
And judging from her posture, she was going to pounce on him and continue to fight.
"I'm going to beat your face until it looks nothing like Rudeus!!"
No one could stop her. Luke was indeed beaten until her nose was bruised and her face was swollen. It's not so much that she didn't look like Rudeus, it's better to say that she didn't even look like a human being.
Just when Luke was beaten so hard that he was about to die, I took a step forward
But at this time, Aisha. Greyrat patted my shoulder and signaled that I didn't need to speak.
"Sister Eris, stop when you've calmed down."
"Hmph!"
This farce was ended by Aisha. Greyrat
She gave Luke treatment and said to him
"If it was my brother who was here just now and you were already dead, no matter how important you were to His Highness Ariel, you would still die."
Just saying this, Luke no longer looked at Eris. Greyrat, as if he was really scared.
And I also criticized Luke in front of Eris. Greyrat, so that she could calm down.
The method of movement is to use a transfer magic circle together with a horse and carriage
First drive a carriage to the Sky Fortress, then use the transfer magic circle directly on the carriage to transfer to the north of Red Dragon's Upper Jaw, then go south along the land route
Perugius also set up a magic circle in a place where carriages can enter
When doing this, Aisha. Greyrat was the one who watched it with great interest. I don't know if she is interested in teleportation magic or if she knows how to do it but won't help.
From my personal feeling, it is more likely to be the latter
Red Dragon's Upper Jaw
A road leads to the bottom of the valley
Not as straight as Juggernaut Street
However, it is still a single-track road without any branches.
Between national borders, areas that do not belong to any country
Those moving here are all large caravans
Ten boxcarriages, fifty or more horses carrying goods
A large caravan is transporting goods from the Asura Kingdom to the three magical countries
In the long queue, people on foot appear at regular intervals.
As a princess, this is the first time for me to come to such a place.
To be honest, it's quite fresh
Turning my gaze back to the carriage, I found that the expressions of Aisha and Eris were not very good-looking.
Is it because this road reminds me of any bad memories?
I can only guess and won't ask anything. Although Aisha. Greyrat said that they treat me as a friend, I don't think so.
I always feel that Aisha. Greyrat doesn't care too much about whether I can become the king. I don't know if it's because of her arrogant personality or because she simply doesn't care.
In short, there is a high probability that she does not regard me as a true friend.
"Okay, we are leaving Red Dragon's Upper Jaw soon. Let's formulate a strategy. After all, subsequent attacks are certain."
Aisha. Greyrat clapped his hands and said so
It's said to be tactics, but in fact Eris. Greyrat was by my side to protect me. Ghislaine and Aisha. Greyrat stepped forward to kill the enemy.
None of my subordinates are counted in the combat strength... it's really sad
the next day
Move according to the prepared strategy
The horses of Eris, Greyrat and Ghislaine are walking in the front
"Stop!"
Eris. Greyrat kept a distance from Ghislaine and stopped the horse.
Not far from them, there was a row of armored soldiers blocking their way.
"Who is it!"
The armored soldier did not answer Ghislaine's question.
Because of the full-face helmet, I can't see my expression.
Among the armored soldiers, there is a man with particularly gorgeous decorations.
That should be the captain
"..."
they said nothing
Just silently, blocking our road
"Sister Eris, come and protect the carriage."
Eris. Greyrat followed the instructions of Aisha. Greyrat and approached the carriage
Aisha. Greyrat held a sword and walked slowly towards the soldiers.
When walking to a certain distance
"!"
Suddenly, Aisha. Greyrat pulled out the sword
With one quick step, one of them was decapitated.
"Enemy attack!"
Ghislaine shouted and followed Aisha. Greyrat and rushed forward.
They cut down the soldiers to the ground one by one with the speed of their swords that would not leave even an afterimage.
It was clearly an ambush from the other side, but it was our side that launched the attack first. What move was this?
On the left side of the forest, more than thirty soldiers rushed towards the carriage.
"You guys, if someone gets close, shout!"
Eris. Greyrat After finishing speaking, he drew his sword and rushed towards them.
Facing these three people, all numerical advantages are meaningless...
They are really strong...
Just ten minutes later, the sound of fighting suddenly became quiet.
When I looked forward, the few remaining soldiers separated.
Then, looking at the characters emerging from there, Aisha, Greyrat and Ghislaine stopped moving.
That person is smaller than expected
The size is probably only 1 meter at most.
It's Small-Person Race
The small body is covered with full body armor
The beautifully polished armor emits a twinkling light under the sunlight.
With his short limbs, he looks like a mirror ball in a ballroom.
After he walked out of the front, the surrounding soldiers gradually became quiet.
It's like saying please, teacher
In other words, he seems to be the strong one
"My name is North King Wei Ta! One of North God Three Swordsmen! The Wei Ta of "Light and Darkness"!"
"Who are you?" Aisha. Greyrat said irritably
"I'm here to pay homage to Black Wolf Ghislaine. I want to challenge her..."
The words are not finished yet
Aisha. Greyrat activated some kind of magic in a very impatient manner.
That short Human Race seemed to be under some heavy pressure, and the ground around him sunk.
Then, Aisha. Greyrat and Ghislaine rushed towards him. The battle ended in just a few minutes.
When the remaining soldiers saw this scene, they were frightened and backed away.
It seems that this short Human Race is quite powerful... at least it lasted for a few minutes under the siege of Aisha and Ghislaine
However, even if this dwarf is killed, Aisha. Greyrat seems to be on guard for something.
She looked around, killing ordinary soldiers as if toying
Sometimes I use magic, sometimes I swing my sword randomly
These lives seemed to have no meaning in front of her
I have no sympathy for these soldiers. After all, they are my enemies.
It's just that this scene makes me a little scared Aisha. Greyrat
The remaining soldiers did not last long before they were all killed by Aisha and Ghislaine
Although he won a great victory, Aisha. Greyrat still looked a little heavy.
Hmm... this should be about me too
Out of this thought, I asked
"Miss Aisha, what's the problem? Your expression doesn't look very good."
"The enemy that was supposed to appear didn't show up. Maybe I shouldn't have taken action... maybe it scared him, but I was afraid that sister Eris would get hurt..."
She answered my question, but the second half seemed like she was talking to herself
Hmm? The enemy that was supposed to appear?
Did she know the enemy would appear like this?
This...
Perhaps noticing my expression, Aisha. Greyrat smiled.
"Are you curious why I knew the enemy would ambush?"
"Yes, please tell me if you can"
"Well... it's hard for me to explain, so I'll make it clear to you when I have the chance."
"Okay"
There's no point in asking
After adjusting my mood, I ordered my personal guards to collect the corpses. After all, we were in the forest. I still knew that if the corpses were not disposed of, they would become undead.
During the corpse disposal operation, Luke's expression became increasingly ugly.
Not because of the corpse, but because of the armor on the corpse
Actually, I thought it looked familiar from the beginning.
Some of the large number of corpses
There is a certain coat of arms painted on their armor
That coat of arms belongs to the lord of a certain territory Asura Kingdom
The name of that territory is Milbots
In the Asura Kingdom, a territory granted to one of the four nobles who held very powerful power.
Luke, who realized something was wrong, murmured
"How is it possible..."
Milbots Lord
Pylemon·Notos·Greyrat, betrayed me
