Chapter 109 Chrysanthemum Order Headquarters

Last night, because we were attacked by a mysterious armor, we stayed in the airship without going to the town’s inn . If the armor that struck us returned again it would destroy the airship and I will not tolerate it . We had to stand guard all night in sentinel rotation while the city was right on the side .

The next morning, when the sun rises, everyone gathers in the dining room/living room and eats breakfast easily .

“Well then, as planned, we will split in half one pair will continue the vigilance around the airship and the other will head to the Chrysanthemum Knights headquarters . ”

I talked while taking breakfast .

“Liz, Shia, and I will go to the Chrysanthemum Knight headquarters . Snow, Chris, and Meiya are in charge of vigilance around the airship, so no problem . ”

Everyone Says “OK” .

This is only confirmation of what we decided last night . Lieutenant Snow as the head, Chris and Meiya are underneath . Plenty of weapons are prepared .

Snow’s AK 47 is equipped with a newly developed “GB 15”, 40 mm add – on / grenade . As a precaution, an automatic grenade launcher referring to the Mk19 is removed and installed .

Even if the opponent is that armor bastard, it will not be delayed with firepower . There is also a lot of equipment on the airship . In case of emergency, Meiya should let the airship escape to the sky .

The problem is with us; we are going to the Chrysanthemum Knights’ Headquarters . [TN you know I am slightly annoyed about the Chrysanthemum Knights’ headquarters; I think we already understand that you are going to the chrysanthemum knights’ headquarters, so please just go to the f…… Chrysanthemum knights’ headquarters . Sorry I just have to let it go . ]

There will not be attacks in the streets, but if we are attacked I am anxious about firepower . We will not be able to rely on a large number of firearms in the airship like Snow .

So I decided to have Liz to come with me . With the power of her spirit – “infinite storage”, even if you are away from the airship you can replenish the firepower .

As for the high-elves, “infinite storage” seems to be an out of place ability, but it is convenient for us all .

Also, if Shia came along with a high sense of awareness, the chances to take a surprise attack are infinitely low even if it is that Armored dude .

In addition, in order to be able to respond to a crisis immediately when an emergency occurs, I have handed a secret weapon to Shia . Speaking of personal wishes, I would like to see a scene to use early .

In other words, the enemy has to attack us themselves……

I do not feel like I am overly wary of this personnel arrangement, but it is too late after the problem has occurred . I should think it isn’t done badly .

“But Lute was the last sentinel, aren’t you sleepy?”

“Okay, okay . Thank you for your concern . But it’s okay . Besides, if we finish all the plans for today, I can sleep . Is Shia okay?”

“Yes, young master, I have no problem because I am trained to move even without sleeping for a few days on the standpoint of an escort maid . ”

Last night’s sentinel duty went in the order: “Snow & Meiya” “Chris & Liz” “Shia & I”, before dawn . It is a result of incorporating Shia with a high sense of awareness at the time when it becomes dark .
“Then after breakfast, let’s start preparing for each task, I know it’s a lot of work, but let’s all work hard . ”

Everyone hail at me .

As planned, Liz, Shia and I headed to the Chrysanthemum Knights headquarters in the city . [TN Otra vez la burra al trigo . Sorry, please don’t mind me . ]

Before leaving the Dragon Man Continent, a map was handed over from the Adventurer’s Guild, so I was able to aim for the headquarters without hesitation .

The Cocori street is a large one in the center, one avenue crosses it drawing a cross . When viewed from above, it depicts ‘ ten . ’ 『十』This seems to be delimited for easy transportation because the items sent from the port are sent later to each city .

Even today, carriages are crossing the main street . We go through that and aim for the Chrysanthemum Knights headquarters . [TN . No! Really? Who would have thought so?]

I stopped and looked back without thinking .

“Sorry, Liz . ”

“What, Lute”

Curious, she tilts her head . There was a pendant shining on Liz’ chest . This pendant changes the color of the eyes . Thanks to it, she didn’t look like an elf .

The High Elves have the longest life span among all races . It is also a popular race for love couples, it becomes a tourist spot around their home country .

It is human most worshiped race, but as a precaution, she was disguised as if it were not a high elf so as not to be disturbed .

Why is she always walking behind me?

Shia, who is dressed like a maid, has a leather travel bag and is walking like a shadow behind Liz so we were stretching like a train .

I looked back and ask Liz politely .

“… Why is Liz walking three steps behind me and not by my side?”

“Isn’t a wife supposed to walk three steps behind her husband?”

As she said, a ‘?’ floats over her head .

As expected from the high-elf kingdom’s 2nd princess, Liz · Enol · Memea . The idea is too old .

“But when we left the Adventurer’s guild in the Dragon man continent, didn’t you grab my arm? Didn’t you? ”

“At that time the lady at the reception was too scary …”

“Ah, is that person?”

Apparently, she was scared of that receptionist at the Adventurer’s guild . She grabbed my arm on the way back . Other than that, she always was behind the rest .

If I knew what I was doing, I would have noticed it sooner . Even if you regret it will change nothing . I hold out the hand to my wife again

“You do not have to walk behind that way, let’s walk side-by-side”

“But my mother taught me that it was a wife’s duty, was it wrong?”

“It’s not a mistake . In some places, that would be the right answer . And … …… I simply want to walk with Liz . Is it useless?”

“N… No, it isn’t useless . ”

Even if Liz was shy to say it straight, she nodded diligently and turned red ‘til the ear lobe . She gladly grabbed the left hand I gave her .

Her small palms are soft and slender like autumn maple leaves . The heat of Liz’ face that has turned red moved up to my cheeks .

“He, he, he, It would be nice to walk around town like this . ”

“When this quest is over, we will hold hands and see the city . ”

“Yes, I am looking forward to it . ”

She seems happy and shy . The sight is unbearably lovely and pretty . No matter how you look at our exchanges, it will be a honeymoon lovey-dovey couple’s interaction . This time, I feel shy .

“Young master, lady, it is a turn left, not a straight line”

Because I was walking with a smile with Liz, I passed the corner to turn . Shia in a maid figure waiting behind puts calmly a tsukkomi .

If she wasn’t there, we would not have arrived at the Chrysanthemum Knights’ headquarters . We were able to arrive at the headquarters late morning .
▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼

The Chrysanthemum Knight order headquarters was built in the north side of the city, near the wall surrounding the town . In the East and West entrance, there are many people because of the passage of goods . Commercial areas and residential areas are concentrated in the north and south entrance .

The northern part is not popular and has very few traffic . Thanks to that, walls are built to surround the headquarters . I expected that the training space would be enough if it was so large .

The gate was open, so we went in without permission . We were seen passing through by the dwellers, but I was not warned .

At the Dragon Man Continent Adventurers’ guild, I heard the story that the Chrysanthemum Knights Headquarters open the gates to listen to the people at any time . It seems to be true .

It also seems to have a role as a “police box” of my previous life’s word, such as to give guidance on the street, entrust lost children and lost items .

If you cross the gate, you will find a stone building on your right . There seems to be a ground spreading on the left . It is like an elementary school or junior high school in Japan .

“There! The swing of the hand is delayed! Move the sword according to the surroundings!”

“Yes!”

“Do 100 swings more! Have a fighting spirit and begin!”

“Yes! ”

At the direction of a woman who seems to be one instructor, about 20 girls start to swing a sword that crushed the blade .
The height of the woman who seemed to be an instructor was high, and since she cuts her hair short, it further complements her manly expression . The ears are round beast ears, small breasts, the limbs are thin and long instead .

According to the “1, 2, 3 -” shouts, it is spectacular that the girl swings the sword with undisturbed movement .

When such a woman notices us, the sharp gaze that was aimed at the girls seemed like a lie and directed a friendly smile to me .

“Are you an adventurer?　The adventure Guild is not in the north entrance, but in the south entrance on the other side . ”

(Huh?)

While I feel uncomfortable, I reply with a business smile .

“No, we are from Legion Peacemaker . we rushed Mr . Gharma’s request, special advisor to the Chrysanthemum Knights, Is there adviser Gharma?”

“- So, you guys”

As soon as we reveal our true identity, her gaze turns blatantly cold . I don’t know why . She turns her back to us .

“You keep moving . When the number of times is over, disband!”

In addition, she gives instructions to the girl who was walking the corridor at the back with a bunch of documents .

“Deputy leader Layara!　Please supervise while I am away!”

“Ye, yes!”

The girl who has wings with a texture like a hawk stretches the spine with a “pin!” The woman nods at the reaction and looks back to us .

“Come with me, the advisor will be waiting . ”

To tell the truth, she leads in a moody way .

Liz and I did not see each other and followed silently .
