Translator note: I am with the flue right now. So I translate this halfheartedly. I write some annoying comments that reflected my animus. I considered erasing them but no. So, I am sorry just treated them as a stress relief.

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 b.a.s.t.a.r.d, 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 pa.s.sed 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 pa.s.sage 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 s.p.a.ce would be enough if it was so large.

The gate was open, so we went in without permission. We were seen pa.s.sing 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 j.a.pan.

“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 b.r.e.a.s.t.s, 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 ident.i.ty, 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 doc.u.ments.

“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.
