Chapter 11: The warrior who saved the daughter
Chapter 11: The warrior who saved the daughter
It has been two days since we left Luntatta.
We are making our way through the mountains.
My goal is to reach the next city, Einark.
It’s a journey with no particular purpose, but I had some things I wanted to do.
One of them is to visit places of interest.
It is said that an advanced civilization once flourished in the world.
The people who built the civilization were called “The Great Race”.
It is still not clear why the civilization became extinct and disappeared, but remains of that time remain in many places.
I wanted to take a look at those ancient ruins.
After all, ruins are romantic, right?
It’s natural for a man to want to see incredible things done by incredible people.
Since we are going on a long journey, we can’t miss the sightseeing tours.
Besides, the gourmet food of each place.
Eating local delicacies is one of the best parts of traveling.
“Kaede, does your body hurt anymore?”
“I am completely cured. Yesterday I finished taking the medicine, and from now on I will dedicate all my energy to helping the master.”
Kaede moved her ears with an expression full of motivation.
That body I first saw when I was weak is nowhere to be found.
On the contrary, it has grown so much that it is difficult to look at it.
By the way, we are currently disguised as status and our level is around 30. If someone were to look at us with a scroll of appreciation or an ability to value, we would be like any ordinary adventurer.
“By the way, Master, what is the name of our group?”
“A name? We are…”
I hadn’t thought of that.
It’s usually the first thing I think about.
I wonder what kind of name would be good.
“How about Manyu Brigade?”
“And it’ll just be you and me, right?”
“Maybe more people will join us, like you and me.
“I see… I agree with that.”
Kaede seems to be happy with the idea.
And with this, we are a B-rank group “The Manyu Brigade”.
The purpose of the party, as its name suggests, is to wander.
We’re going to take a quiet walk around the world.
And if we find a place that we like, you can plant our roots there.
“Hey, I’ve been meaning to ask you, how did you become a slave, Kaede?”
“Wait… What is it?”
In the middle of the conversation, Kaede points forward.
One of the chariots was surrounded by bandits.
“Let’s help!”
“Yes.”
I knocked one of the men down with a blow to the head without drawing my sword.
Kaede was also very agile and put one of the men to sleep with a single blow.
“Who the hell are those?! Hey, get those two!”
The leader of the bandits gave the order, then many started coming towards us.
“Huh!”
He exhaled with great intensity, and all the bandits were amazed, and then all of them turned in the air and crashed into the trees with such force that they were unconscious.
Kaede also burst the tips of the bandits’ chins with her iron fan being closed.
They fell unconscious by the tremor that shook their brains.
We defeated ten opponents in less than a minute.
“They were no match for us.”
“Their levels are about 10. They are very weak.”
“Is everyone okay there?”
A few moments later the door to the carriage opened.
“I don’t know who they are, but thank you very much for your help.”
It was a woman in a pink dress.
Her golden hair flowed softly like silk threads, and her slightly drooping eyebrows gave her a soft impression.
Also, what is striking is her big breasts.
Every time she moved, they swayed so much that my eyes were involuntarily attracted to them.
“Master?!”
With a pale face, Kaede was surprised.
No, you can’t blame me, I saw her involuntarily.
Anyone who had seen her would also have been mesmerized by her breasts.
“?”
The woman bowed her head as if she didn’t understand our interaction.
She looks like a noble lady, and I’m glad I wasn’t rude.
I can’t tell you that I was distracted because she has big breasts.
Kaede approaches me with a little moan…
“Sorry I didn’t introduce myself earlier, my name is Marianne, daughter of Count Roane. I would like to thank you for saving me from those bandits.”
“I am Toru, an adventurer, and this is Kaede, my slave.”
“So, Toru-Sama?”
Marianne looked at me with a vague expression on her face.
It is uncomfortable. She is staring me in the face.
I wonder if there’s something wrong with my face.
She shuddered and suddenly took my hand.
“Why don’t you come with me to the mansion? I’d like to reward you! You can both come with me in the carriage!”
“Huh?!”
She squeezed my hand and took me with her into the carriage.
Count Roane is the Lord of the next city we’re going to, and his daughter is a kind of princess.
Oh man, I’m getting nervous all of a sudden.
I’ve always been bad with aristocrats.
I have to make sure I don’t get into any trouble with them.
“I’m so surprised at you two, you’re so strong.”
“Uh, well, not so much…”
“Yes, we are, after all, the master is the chosen one.”
“The chosen one? Chosen for what?”
Hey, don’t say things like that.
Suddenly, Marianne showed a strange interest in me.
Of course, I thought I saw his eyes light up.
“Where was Toru-Sama going?”
“We were on our way to Einark before we ran into you.” “So, it seems that it was convenient for both of us to have them invited to my home. If you want, you can stay over tonight.”
“No, thank you very much for the invitation, but I cannot abuse your hospitality.”
“You’re wrong!”
He looked at the person next to him.
A quiet woman in a maid’s uniform with slanted eyes. She was Marianne’s maid.
She took one look at Kaede and me and didn’t say a word.
Somehow, I think she’s trying to say, “If that’s your wish, miss.
From the looks of it, it won’t be a problem for us commoners to stay there.
To tell you the truth, I only once wanted to spend a night in a nobleman’s mansion.
I can take this opportunity to experience it.
“I wouldn’t mind, but what do you think, Kaede?”
“I will follow my master wherever he goes. So you are free to decide.”
“Well, then, I think we have an agreement. We’ll do our best to entertain you tonight, so please look forward to it.”
He was full of expectations.
I’m sure there will be a feast like you’ve never seen before.
And a luxurious, fluffy futon that you can’t get at an inn.
It will be a lot of fun. I can’t stop being excited and excited at the same time.
“Here we are, in the city.”
“Whooo!”
We were able to see the beautiful city from the window.
Picturesque buildings lined the street, and it seemed to have developed considerably.
This is Einark, the city of ruins.
It is a city famous for tourism where many buildings from the time of the gods are preserved.
We will enjoy it to the fullest as the Mangyu Brigade.
When we entered the city in the chariot, multiple leftovers moved through the underground.
They were demons with malicious intentions.
The light that shone in their eyes indicated that they were mocking us.
“Humans of Eirnak, fear the servants of the Demon King. Hahahahaha.”
Disaster is imminent.
