Part 1
Oh, Imperial Capital………… I came back alive!
A sophisticated city, different from Toizant. The crowds of people and the horse-drawn carriages made me feel a strong sense of nostalgia. My hometown is not the Imperial Capital, but I guess that means I also became attached to this city.
Perhaps it was because we had a lot of trouble on the way there, but on the way back, the escort was done with a large number of people. The power of numbers is truly great when I think about the fact that we were able to finish without a hitch.
After escorting up to the Imperial Castle, I was released and I stretched widely. Now I am free.
“Yup, that was easier than usual……” (Cry)
“Are you, serious, desu!” (Kruz)
Kruz pulled her cheek while saying that. And Kilknight was silent.
I always have a rough time with escort-type missions. This time, there was a lot going on as well, but my burden was minimal.
In a nutshell, all I did was… Dumping everything to someone else. All I needed was a friend to rely on. With that in mind, I guess you could say that it was easy.
On top of that, I got a carpet and a smartphone. Rare Relics are a once in a lifetime thing, and the rewards are wonderful for the effort I put in.
I *panpan* slapped the shoulder of the carpet standing next to me, and it chopped me back. Was it too extravagant to think that it was time for it to let me hop on and fly on it?
I went to the Clan House and then parted ways with Kruz, who had been very helpful to me.
In terms of combat, in terms of emotional support, and in terms of recharging my Relics, she is the MVP.
“Hmph…… It was a complete disaster, desu. Don’t call me that easily again, Yowaningen.” (Kruz)
“…… You don’t want to celebrate together?” (Cry)
“I have to report to Lapis, desu. Moreover, there are only Yowaningen, Kilknight and me for the celebration, desu! What the hell was this guy, desu? He barely spoke at all, desu!” (Kruz)
Even though we were talking about him, Kilknight, who was in a bright red armor, remained standing upright next to me. He would probably stay like this until Sytry came for him.
“Who knows………… But he was reliable, wasn’t he?” (Cry)
“H-How could you say something like that, Yowaningen. I’m honestly impressed, desu.” (Kruz)
“It is better than bringing another member of the “Fox (Kitsune)”, right?” (Cry)
“…………” (Kruz)
Although it had been useless in an emergency, it seemed to have a mechanism to transmit what you say to Sytry and the others, so if it hadn’t been for Kilknight, I wouldn’t have been able to call Sytry and the others in such a timely manner.
The armor of the taciturn Kilknight has been *banban* hit everywhere. The fact that he was quiet wasn’t a disadvantage in terms of protection. He was not as much of a hindrance as I thought he would be, and I could take him around all the time. Although, when I do that, I have to remember to give it some raw meat for his meal……
Kilknight *pikuri* shivers in response to my friendly attitude.
As if he was a machine, he moved his arm in a powerful motion, and slowly removed his armor.
Kruz’s eyes widened and she froze up. What appeared――Was not his face, but a paper bag with two holes in it.
“Kilkil……” (Kilknight)
After saying a few words as if it was a greeting, Kilknight went straight into the Clan House in silence. The Hunters of 《First Step (Ashiato)》 who were used to fighting various kinds of Monsters were all giving way for him.
Kilknight went up the stairs and disappeared (presumably) into Sytry’s lab on the third floor.
“………… So, actually, it was Kilkill-kun.” (Cry)
Seriouslyyyyy…… Come to think of it, Sytry seems to have mentioned that……
Maybe because of his usual strong impactful appearance, it was really hard to tell that? it was him when he is in full body armor as it hid all his features.
When I was truly impressed, Kruz said quietly.
“………… If I wasn’t so kind, I would have punched you, desu.” (Kruz)
“As expected of Kruz, you are so kind!” (Cry)
“You are definitely making fun of me, aren’t you, desu?” (Kruz)
Kruz pushed me a little. And so my escort journey came to an end.
§
For the first time in a long time, I took off my 『Perfect Vacation』 and slumped into the comfortable chair in the Clan Master’s office in my usual outfit.
I felt like I was finally able to be comfortable.
『Perfect Vacation』 is a very useful Relic, but it has the drawback of being too comfortable. Rumor has it that some other 『Perfect Vacation』 enthusiasts have worn it so much that they can no longer wear any other clothes. I guess I am okay with it because there is not much difference between when I am normal and when I am comfortable. Because, you know, I am not working that much.
After all, *daradara* lazing around in this place suits me the most.
Eva makes me tea as usual. Everyday life is the best. I am the worst for having her do all the clan-related work and even having her make tea for me.
And like every time, Eva verified what happened.
“Cry-san. How did your escort request go? I have heard rumors about it……” (Eva)
“Around thirty points, I will say. Was everything okay on your side?” (Cry)
“There were no problems at all. The only thing that changed is that――《Torch Knights (Touka Kish-Dan)》 have returned from their expedition. They have already left, though.” (Eva)
“Heh, too bad, we just missed each other.” (Cry)
“They are mercenaries…… Most of them were also absent, but Touka-san, their Leader was also disappointed about it.” (Eva)
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
I am baaack! Sadly I didn’t re-edit all the previous chapters. I procrastinated waaaay too much. I only did from chapter 50 to 56.1… I’ll try to keep editing while doing the chapter I’ll keep you posted when I finish a new chapter.
Tchao à plus!
