Chapter 54
Royal Capital Guards
The entire royal capital is surrounded by a huge rampart to keep the people safe. Since the founding of the nation, this wall has never been broken, and it has protected the country and prevented the invasion from other countries on countless occasions.https://scelusceleris.blogspot.com/
And the guards - who are also soldiers and also citizens of the capital - live being surrounded by such a study wall, keeping watchful eyes so that suspicious individuals will not enter, while giving the feeling of pride as they stand guard.
The Slowlett family is a noble family even though it’s just a baron, so our carriage can proceed straight to the gate through the long line of queue like the wind.
The envious gaze from the merchants and travelers pierces us.
『Oi, look at that. It’s a Dragon insignia. Wasn’t that the famous Dragon Slayer-san?』
『You serious. That’s amazing. That’s so cool, I also wanted to be a noble.』
I can hear the admiration and envy from the people.
Nord-tousan is embarrassed, while Elna-kaasan is smiling. Apparently, as long as people don't talk about her own past actions, she wouldn’t feel embarrassed about it.https://scelusceleris.blogspot.com/
Even though she was so embarrassed when Rumba talked about it before.
Well, all things considered, I’ll listen carefully to Rumba’s story after watching the play.
『Oi oi, is it true that the guards for the eastern gate today is ‘them’!?』
『Three days ago the were guarding the southern gate........』
『Those two are bad news. Let’s pray they won’t hit on us.』
I can hear the voices from other carriage in line occasionally.
Apparently, there is a dangerous two-person guards on the east gate that we will pass through,
I wonder in what way are they dangerous. Are they the strong warrior type. Or maybe those merchants and travelers who are trying to enter from here are just having quite a terrible previous experience in the past or feeling guilty, as they bring in their belongings.
We finally reached in front of the castle gates and stopped the carriage.
The road is wide enough as there would be no problem even if there are three carriage passing through. And then when you look up above, you will see a massive wall reaching up to the sky. The thickness alone would likely be thirty meters. https://scelusceleris.blogspot.com/
「Please show me you noble’s badge.」
A pair of men wearing metal armor in red and silver-based color approaches the carriage. Their armor - which covered their whole body - noisily made a sound *gashagasha* each time they move.
I can hear people behind us happily saying things like「Uoohー, that was dangerousー」to others beside them.
Eh, are these two the so-called dangerous pair?
When I look at them again, they seem to be normal short-haired men and a skinhead guy. When Bartolo is wearing his fierce look, he looked more frightening. But since there are a lot of adventurers who came to the royal capital, I guess you should get used to this kind of stern measures. https://scelusceleris.blogspot.com/
「Alright, wait a bit, let me show it to you. 」
「I’m coming too, it’s a leisure.」
In order for us to enter, Nord-tousan and I got off the carriage and showed the noble’s badge.
Seeing Nord-tousan’s nonchalant air, I guess these two guys are alright. Or maybe he just doesn’t know, I just followed him out of curiosity.
「Certainly, this is a noble’s badge.」
Nord-tousan takes out a notebook from his coat pocket and shows it to them. Shining in golden, is the Dragon coat of arms.
Apparently, that notebook is a proof of one social position.
The short-haired guard confirmed it with no expression, but when he looked at Nord-tousan’s face, his expression changed to that of astonishment.
What is it, what is it? I wonder if he is a big fan of Dragon Slayer like the one in the villages and town I’ve seen so far.
「……beautiful.」
「Ha.......?」
What did this man said just now?
When Nord-tousan stares at the man dubiously, the man shyly turns his gaze away a bit.
「No, it’s nothing. I have confirmed it. Baron Nord Slowlett-sama, yes?」
「Ye, yes. That’s right.」
「So, just to make sure, I’m going to do a simple inspection on the carriage and ask some question, is that alright?」
「Yes.」
Saying that, the other guard head to the wagon to do the inspection.
Incidentally, the skin head guard has been looking at me for a while now. Did you have something that’s bothering you.
