I think I was exhausted from meeting with a lot of strong people yesterday after a long trip, and I fell asleep right after I got out of the bath.
When I told Hayato, who came back at dinner time, that I met Theresa and her friends and heard about the auction, he said
‘How should I describe this, what a dense people they are’ (Hayato)
And, Hayato has already met her once and thought the same thing I did.
The fact is, however, that he is very popular with the citizens, and they adore him for his use of language like that.
In fact, she's also contributing to society, and is willing to take part in food preparation and destruction missions.
I think she's a good girl on the inside.
I think it's cute to think that she's pushing herself too hard.
After that, I got a bath and went back to my room before everyone else and fell asleep right away.
I found a quilt on my bed when I arrived, probably because Aina had covered it for me.
Nevertheless, I was able to sleep well .......
Now I'm ready to explore the capital today.
Today's plan is just to wander around royal capital, which is huge, but there will be a underground auction from midnight to dawn, just as the people in the city are asleep.
So, I made a list of stores that I wanted to take my time looking around first, and decided to visit there at a later date.
During the auction, the three of us who will be away from home will be free to do whatever we want in the meantime, since they will be asleep when we return.
“So, I can't wait to get there, but on what basis am I being forced to sit on the floor ......” (Itsuki)
“My lord, I have something important to tell you” (Aina)
“Uh, Aina?” (Itsuki)
Aina is sitting in front of me, also seated on the floor.
“My lord, you slept early yesterday” (Aina)
“Yeah, I was tired and fell asleep right away. I was tired and I fell asleep right away. Oh, it was Aina who prepared the futon for me. Thank you” (Itsuki)
“Oh, I came back from the bath and found my lord asleep, so I didn't want you to catch a cold. ...... It's not! That's not what I'm talking about!” (Aina)
“Huh? I wonder if I have done something ......” (Itsuki)
I have no recollection of it.
Don't tell me that I did something to Aina, my roommate, when I was sleeping that I don't realize I was doing again.
I don't remember anything more than I'm asleep, so I hope you'll forgive me if you can .......
“Wrong! When I came back from the bath, I entered the room alone with my lord, expecting to be alone with my lord after a long time, but I found you sleeping. I haven't been able to have any skin-to-skin contact with my lord lately, and despite the fact that we're finally in the same room!” (Aina)
“Ehhhhh......” (Itsuki)
“The same thing happened last time. I was the only one who couldn't knee-pillow my lord, and I wanted to knee-pillow you after the bath to relieve your fatigue. And now you're asleep. ......” (Itsuki)
“I'm sorry? Is that right?” (Itsuki)
“My lord is ...... that, does not taken a like to me?” (Aina)
“That can't be true” (Itsuki)
Seriously.
I don't know why.
It's true that I don't have much skin-to-skin contact with Aina lately.
But there's a good reason for that.
Aina got involved and has become my slave.
It's like an accident, so to speak.
To be honest, I feel bad about the fact that it was time to release her.
The same is true for Solte and Renge, but I'd like to free the three of them as soon as possible.
Of course, the collection of materials is helpful and appreciated, but these three are adventurers who are well-liked by many people.
I was wondering if I should be using such an adventurer just to collect materials.
That's why I sometimes take a step back for the purposes of doing that kind of thing.
As for the bath with Renge, it's because of the flow and thighs.
But I guess so.
Now that we are comrades and slaves, is it strange for me to take a step back?
But since Aina seems so innocent, the thought of doing something poorly can make my heart withdraw. ......
It's easy to imagine the future when I put my lust to my heart's content, and Solte gets angry about it.
“Oh, I see. You don't hate me, huh?” (Aina)
“There's no reason to hate you. So, can I get a lap pillow when I get home today?” (Itsuki)
“Sure! Of course!” (Aina)
“However, I request in a raw kneeling pillow” (Itsuki)
“Raw ......?” (Aina)
“Yes. Barefoot. Armor, of course, and no clothes underneath!” (Itsuki)
“Is it okay to wear clothes with short hems, such as those worn by Renge?” (Aina)
“It allows. Short skirts are also allowed!” (Itsuki)
“Got it, I'll try to do my best” (Aina)
Lust is good, too, if only a little!
I'm on a roll today!
I don't have any choice!
Now I've got something to look forward to when I get home!
Today looks to be another good day!
Aina's convinced, I'm looking forward to it, so shall we all go for a walk in the capital!
“So ...... what's up with those two people?” (Itsuki)
Shiro and Solte facing each other at the doorway, taking out their weapons.
“Apparently, the two started fighting” (Hayato)
“Ah, Hayato, good morning” (Itsuki)
“Good morning. You said that you were going to explore the capital today. What do you want to have for breakfast?” (Hayato)
“If you have something light, I'll take it” (Itsuki)
“Then we will have sandwiches, I'll have them brought up now. I'm sorry I can't show you around today because I have to show up for somewhere” (Hayato)
“The Earl, indeed. You have been very busy” (Itsuki)
“I'm free to go outside and so on, so I have a lot to take care when I get back. ......” (Hayato)
It sounds like a lot of work.
I don't think I could ever do it.
“What will Hayato do after the auction?” (Itsuki)
“I'm going to stay in the royal city for a while. I have a little event I have to attend” (Hayato)
“It looks really tough ......” (Itsuki)
“I don't have a fiefdom like other nobles, and it's a weird comparison, but this is an easy one for me” (Hayato)
“Let’s see what we'll do at ....... I don't want to bother you too long” (Itsuki)
“You don't have to worry about it, okay? Chris wants to see how the ice cream is made, and Emily wants to talk to Wendy. Also, that ...... I would like to talk to Itsuki-san at ease” (Hayato)
“Is that so? Then I think I'll stay for a bit longer. Just wondering if I'll have to go through that buggy road on the way home, but I don't have the energy to do so yet. ......” (Itsuki)
“Hahaha ....... You really are not good with bugs” (Hayato)
“Well, I'm not very good at it to begin with, but if I had to go through that from the very beginning ......” (Itsuki)
Now, I might be able to defeat them by using space magic, but I wouldn't want to encounter them if I could.
It's not that I'm strong or weak in these things, but I'm absolutely terrible at them.
“And so, what are those two fighting about?” (Itsuki)
“Let's see, Shiro-san said that even if there are three of them, they can't beat her. While Solte-san says she can beat her alone ...... something like that” (Hayato)
“Ah— ...... that's a realm I don't understand. From my point of view, they're both strong” (Itsuki)
The only thing I can see is that Shiro is still the one pressing.
Although Solte's attacks are also fast, it seems that Solte is in a hurry to avoid them, and Solte is in a hurry to catch Shiro's attacks, so Shiro has room to spare.
“Dog. Recommended to surrender with your tummy turned” (Shiro)
“Who! You're the one who should run away, with your tail between your legs!” (Solte)
Ah, I should probably stop them .......
“Hey Onii-san. I brought you a sandwich!” (Mii)
“Oh- Mii good morning. Thanks” (Itsuki)
“Good morning, Master-sama. This is made by me and I hope you enjoy it!” (Wendy)
“Sure, good morning, Wendy. Thank you. Yeah, it's totally delicious” (Itsuki)
Wendy took a bite of a sandwich and sat down on the front staircase and watched them while beginning to eat the sandwich.
“Hmmm, Shiro is indeed strong. Mii don't know if I could win” (Mii)
“Is that so?” (Itsuki)
“That's right-nano. I'm not holding back now, but I can afford it-nano desu” (Mii)
I knew it.
A sense of laziness emanates from Shiro.
“Oh, Lord” (Shiro)
“Don't look away!” (Solte)
“Hmmm ....... I knew it had to be three people or it wouldn’t be threat to me” (Shiro)
“Nah, suddenly there is a movement! Huh!” (Solte)
“This is a match for the best. Shiro is still strong. I'd like to ask for a match” (Mii)
“No, no, no, I'm going to go shopping now, so give me a break” (Shiro)
After a moment of Shiro looking at me, she moved faster than ever before and blew Solte away with a kick.
I mean, it was so fast that I couldn't see it at all, but I didn't know how it got into the bosom of Solte, who was keeping time with her spear.
Shiro ignored the blown-up Solte and ran toward me, and with a shout of "Tou" and she jumped onto my lap.
“Lord, that looks delicious. Ahhhh” (Shiro)
“Sure. Ahhhhh. I hope Solte is safe, right?
“Hmmm, I didn't injure her even a bit. Shiro is excellent” (Shiro)
“It's annoying, like going easy on me. ...... It's painful ....... But I didn't know there was such a difference in strength ....... Haha, I'll lose my confidence. ......” (Solte)
“Solte is strong enough, right? It always helpful to me” (Itsuki)
“Even if you're told after having lost ....... Huh. ......” (Solte)
“Don't be discouraged. Here, wants a sandwich?” (Itsuki)
“Mmm ....... Give it to me” (Solte)
“Where is ‘Ahhh’?” (Itsuki)
“...... Ahhh” (Solte)
Solte opens her mouth in a small voice.
It is a good indication that she is becoming more honest lately, and I can't help but think back to the past and get deeply moved.
“I won't let you” (Shiro)
“Ahh!” (Solte)
“Shiro ......” (Itsuki)
Shiro takes a bite of the sandwich I offered Solte from the side, or rather from the bottom, and bites it off.
She went on to eat the sandwich and swallow it and look at Solte with a smug look on her face.
“It's outrageous that the loser gets ahhhh from Lord” (Shiro)
“Come on, it's fine!” (Solte)
“You should eat Shiro's leftover” (Shiro)
“This is too humiliating! Besides, we got into a fight because you said you would not take serious without three people!” (Solte)
“Indeed. Shiro is stronger than the three, so it's no wonder” (Shiro’)
“Muukee! I'll beat you for sure!” (Solte)
“Come anytime. Perfect for Shiro's warm-up exercise” (Shiro)
“I'm getting mad. ....... I'm going to beat you to a pulp!” (Solte)
“Okay. Stop. Till now. Stop fighting Shiro too. Don't buy it, Solte. Damn, how competitive your fighting instincts are!” (Itsuki)
But if Shiro is this strong, I think her life before me is going to be tough.
To be honest, I'd like to avoid fighting, and I don't want either Shiro or Wendy to do anything dangerous.
I'm sure that's why Shiro is not able to fight seriously.
“Then, would you like to participate in the upcoming " Royal Capital's 1st Martial Arts Tournament"?” (Hayato)
“Royal Capital's 1st Martial Arts Tournament?” (Itsuki)
“Yes. It's the event I mentioned earlier. I'll be in there, and this is where the bravest people in Royal City will participate in the tournament to decide who is the best” (Hayato)
“Ho-ho. But I wouldn't want the two of them to fight each other if I could. I mean, we just become comrades” (Itsuki)
“That's okay. There are two divisions in this tournament: individual and three-person team, so how about using the results to decide?” (Hayato)
“Hmmm ...... How about you, Shiro?” (Itsuki)
“Hmmm, fine with either way. Not very interested” (Shiro)
Oops.
I thought you wanted to fight, but not so much?
“Fighting is a necessary part of life. It's not something to be showcased” (Shiro)
“Oh, okay ......” (Itsuki)
I didn't expect to hear such a serious response from Shiro.
“Oh, you want to run away? You run away from the possibility that someone else might be stronger than you” (Solte)
“I won't take issue with the provocation. If you want to participate in it, you can do what you want. I know if the three of you go out and lose unceremoniously, or if you win and it was Shiro's mistake” (Shiro)
“All right. Then we'll be there. Could I ask for an entry in the team competition that Hayato?” (Solte)
“I understand. It's going to be a lot of fun if you guys from the Red Line join us!” (Hayato)
“Are they famous over here too?” (Itsuki)
“Yes, they are famous adventurers. All three of them are beautiful women, and as an adventurer's guild, they would be perfect for advertising” (Hayato)
“It doesn't matter to strength what a person looks like. This is annoying stuff” (Solte)
“Well, don't say that. That means people are counting on you, right?” (Itsuki)
“That's right ....... Hey, you're going to cheer us there, right?” (Solte)
“Of course. Hey, do you think we can get seats for spectators now, Hayato?” (Itsuki)
“In that case, I'll save seats for you as my guests” (Hayato)
“Sorry for asking you on everything” (Itsuki)
There are many things that are really helpful when I'm with Hayato.
It's so perfect that I'm thinking of just becoming Earl Hayato's child.
“Uh-huh-uh. I'm going to win and get Lord's praise” (Solte)
“You will soon turn to lose and get comforted” (Shiro)
“I will not, you shut up” (Solte)
“Hah ...... barbaric dog shouldn't be because of this. Could you actually be a boar?” (Shiro)
“What does that mean!” (Solte)
“Not enough head” (Shiro)
“Wah-oh-oh! You better remember that! I'll make you acknowledge me for sure!” (Solte)
“Look forward to it. Don't disappoint me on the contrary” (Shiro)
Even though it's been a long time since they met, Shiro's foul mouth doesn't stop when she starts to get carried away.
Although it's not hard to understand that Solte was upset, I'd like to think that it's not because I'm an idiot that I want to be tolerated, since Shiro is still a child.
“My lord, sorry for the wait” (Aina)
“Good morning, Master-tsu!” (Renge)
Now that we have Renge and Aina, I think it's time to go tour the royal capital.
“Hey Aina, Renge! We're going to compete in the Royal Capital's 1st martial arts tournament!” (Solte)
“What's all of a sudden ....... What's the matter with you all of a sudden” (Aina)
“Just come on! We'll show the Lord and Shiro that we're strong! I'm going to get praise from Lord for that! Got it?” (Solte)
“I don't know ....... But it's not bad to have Master praise me-tsu” (Renge)
“Yes, it would be nice to get a good look at how we're fighting” (Aina)
Thus, it was decided that the three of them would participate in "Royal Capital's 1st Martial Arts Tournament".
It seems that my return to Einzhale will be afterwards, I thought lightly at that time.
Thanks for the chapter
