Chapter ss6
"Sir Trell, will you not consider?"
"Zeff-dono . I am regretful to leave you who joined at the same period as me, behind, but I do not think a [Wyvern Rider] who has lost his partner to be of any use to His Majesty . "
Sir Julberg couldn't break the firm decision of Sir Trell either .
"I will whip this old bones and rush in haste if a demon lord appears in the Royal Capital . "
"Do you have somewhere to go in mind?"
"There is a town of [Magic Hunter] called Puta to the east of the Royal Capital, you'll find a hidden village that gather wyvern eggs to the southeast of that town . I intend to rear the youngsters who aspire to become wyvern riders, and raise them to become the next Shiga Eight Swords members . "
Sir Julberg had never heard Puta town, but he nonetheless nodded to Sir Trell while vaguely imagining the southeast direction of the Royal Capital .
The territory that's famous for its wyverns is Seryuu Earldom, but the place where the wyverns are nesting is on the border to the Dragon Valley . It's a place that's been designated as confinement place since the Ancient King Yamato's era, so Sir Julberg didn't bring it up .
Sir Julberg himself has been raising the next generations of Shiga Eight Swords since several years ago, he's given expensive magic swords to promising young talents .
"Sir Trell, this is a parting gift . "
"Is this a magic weapon?"
"Umu, this has been granted to me by His Majesty, but contrary to its delicate appearance, it's an excellence spear with wonderful magic power conduction on par with the divine holy swords . "
Sir Trell takes a noticeably long lance from the magic weapon rack in the corner of the room .
He streams it with my magic power, producing Magic Edge .
"Oh, how light . "
Normally he would have needed to concentrate so much that it'd look like he'd pop his veins, but Sir Trell couldn't hide his surprise to see it happened after he only slightly concentrated .
Sir Julberg who's of the same opinion as him assents .
"Take whichever one to your liking . I do not mind if you give it to your future pupil . "
"Is it fine? Giving me such a sword and a spear . "
"I do not mind . It's an investment for someone who will protect Shiga Kingdom someday . "
This is enough to be an embezzlement case in Shiga Kingdom, but it won't be a problem if he just reports it to the accounting head of Shiga Kingdom Holy Knight to process the account book .

"Boss, there's no road that goes to that mountain you know?"
The one-armed boy answered in bewilderment .
"Then, is there no noble who has an airship or a flying-type monster?"
"I'm guessing that's only the Duke or some army men under the Duke . "
A female magic hunter who was standing beside the boy answered Sir Trell haphazardly .
Surely, it is not possible for an airship to exist in such a small backwater town inhabited only by the magic hunters .
An indescribable atmosphere drifts to this rural town, increasing tension .
--That is, a black shadow .
"You do not seem to be a normal person . Who are you . Declare thy name . "
Sir Trell asked for the person's identity in place of the other people who couldn't move .
However, the black mystery man only laughs .
"To be so insolent while being an ordinary man dearu . I only desire tomatoes . I do not give my name to rubbish dearu . "
"What'd you say . . . "
Sir Trell pulls the sword on his waist .
The blade is charged with red light .
The three retainers who are following him also draw their swords toward the one who's being impolite to their master .
"Fuhn, looks like you're eager, however, since you've drawn your sword, I assume that you are prepared to be cut?"
"As someone who have a duty toward Shiga Kingdom, I cannot let a suspicious person like you roam free . Be at ease since I will not take your life . "
The aforementioned one-armed boy jumps between the two sides of battle-honed people who are about to clash .
"P, please wait Boss Black . Boss needs the tomatoes right? I know about it so I'll guide you there . "
After hearing the boy, the mystery man relaxes his posture and separates his hand from the rapier on his waist .
"Are you saying the truth dearuka?"
"Un, tomatoes are those red fruits right?"
Originally, it was called red fruits and not a popular vegetable substitute, but ever since the demand and price for it increased after being popularized by the [Tomato Noble]-sama, it had started being cultivated not only in deserted villages, but also the vacant lands in the Puta town .
※The boy Kon doesn't know that the Black Dragon Heiron appears in the mountain where the wyverns live .
