Short Chapter. Please correct me if I wrong.
Another POV - Sir Hermes (Jii-San)
The chance was a letter.
"Sir Hermes, we have delivered a letter from the adventurer guild" (Nild)
"Excuse me” (Christopher)
That’s what came to my office, They were two young knights.
One was a small young knight with a soft manner and the other person was a young knight who had a bigger figure and att.i.tude compared to him. Even within the Knights, he was a stand out due to his sword and rough appearance.
The small build is Christopher. The big one, Ni, Ni, Nild … right?
Well, good. If the qualities are genuine, the name will come into your ears whatever you dislike. It will not be late to remember when that happens. It is troublesome to ask.
“You’ve had a hard time, both of you. So, you got a letter from the Adventurer Guild?"
"Yes. It’s here." (Christopher)
Receive a letter from Sir Christopher and check the sign engraved on the surface of the envelope.
"Hmm. It’s certainly from the Adventurer’s Guild… Hmm? This letter is not addressed to me."
There is no person’s name and sender’s name on the back of the envelope. The seal of the envelope was already cut, and The contents were also being inspected..
“Yes, I saw the inside of it, but I have determined that this must be delivered to Sir Hermes.” (Christopher)
"Your Honor, Sir Christopher says like this, "I should stop it.""(Nild)
"Hmmm"
While stroking my beard, Nild somehow urges me.
“I myself also saw the letter, but All that is written is like a delusion that a dragon comes out. It is not reliable. I do not think that it is a case that will not bother me, However, Sir Christopher was forced to do” (Nild)
In the end, I restrained myself to let off a smile, and the intention of the Nild or Christopher who had come to the Office together. I was curious about the word that came out of his mouth.
Dragon. The strongest monster in between heaven and earth. Dragon is also a legendary monster that I have never seen before.
Stare at Sir Christopher lightly. For a dragon this lie is unforgivable.
But he never lost his gentle smile. It is a face that I trust from the bottom of my heart that I did the right thing.
Nild that shuddered next to Christopher. I look over the contents of the letter.
“Is not it from that person?”
The sender of the letter was a guild master of the Adventurers Guild, not an employee. The content is a thing about that, what is exactly Nild and Christopher says. The dragon appeared on the mountain and was rampaging, It was to ask for the help of the Knights.
"If the content of this letter is true, it is understandable that it is addressed to me."
There are adventurers who can take opponent of Dragons. No, There seems to be a secret weapon 『Flash』 in the adventurer guild of the Kingdom, but the ent.i.ty is unclear. Well, There is no mistake to say that it is possible to fight against the dragon.
"But, Christopher. I have never encountered a real one once in the last few years, though I went to the place where the dragon came out and it became a commotion when the dragon appeared. If a tough monster comes out, it’s still better, There was also a story that only misunderstood the big snoring as the dragon’s roar. ” (Nild)
“But it is also true that the mysterious destruction phenomenon has been repeated over the past few years in the mountains near this kingdom. The scale of the destruction is gradually increasing. What we found a little over half a year ago was exactly what we call the footprints of dragons. ” (Christopher)
Footprints of the Dragon. It was a term referring to a ma.s.sive destruction phenomenon of unknown reason. It is a trace that the dragon that suddenly flew was rampant. In this kingdom, several dragon footprints have been found in the last few years and various topics have been talked about.
"A newborn dragon grows up?"
"I cannot deny it. Because the ecology of the dragon has not been understood yet. If you contact the adventurer guild, you may understand a little" (Christopher)
"Hmmm"
One day, The problematic dragon’s footprints, Many were sent to the Knights in the form of reports from the Adventurers Guild. The information that governs the country first comes to the knights, but as for the information that these people become the first finders, the adventurer guilds are earlier.
"Is this letter like that?"
"I decided that the possibility is high." (Christopher)
Christopher whispered in my ear softly so that Nild could not be heard somehow.
“It is that Ricariana · Ristimya that has delivered this. Is it possible to be a mere thoughtless words?" (Christopher)
“Ricariana?”
Who is it? I think I heard somewhere.
"It is one of the guild night leaders. Precedent of elves" (Christopher)
"Oh, yes! Ricariana · Ristimya, Right hand of that person"
"Your Honor!" (Nild)
Nild suddenly raised a loud voice when I was thinking while stroking my beard search the meaning of a letter from an official close to Guild Master.
Looking at him as if he glared at Christopher.
“I heard you Christopher! Stop blowing strange things to Your Honor! What is the guild night! Are not they just guild masters private!"
Accuse Christopher with composed expression. But what made him whispered was something like that? I did something wrong.
"Your Honor! Don’t believe the letter. The information from the guild that confuses the Knights is decided!"(Nild)
Ignoring such idea of thought, Nild somehow says that his thought is correct.
“I will go to the protest to the adventurer guild who tried to confuse the knight with such a frown saying … Even if it eventually develops into a storm, the opponent is a dirty adventurer. One of the great geniuses who will succeed after His Excellency, this Nil – ”
“Christopher”
"Ha！" (Christopher)
Ignoring Sir Nild, I speak to Christopher.
“He used to deliver this letter., so I will decide to take a walk tomorrow morning.”
"I will accompany you!" (Christopher)
"Your Honor! Why do things like that" (Nild)
Nild somehow rebuked and protested against that. Really, did this man read the contents of the letter?
“I know what you say. It’s probably a lie that dragons came out."
"Then!" (Nild)
"Then, if the mountain that the dragon showed, why not go to see?"
"Yeah?" (Nild & Christopher)
Nild somewhat surprised, and Christopher looked a little appalled.
"The place designated as the dragon appeared is a mountain in which Sir Hermes has strengthened the Knights more than before. You didn’t notice?" (Christopher)
"In that place, Do you know that I are developing the white steel that becomes the sword and the armor material of the Knights? Only the Knights."
"Uh, what does that mean?" (Nild)
"Guild that should not know the circ.u.mstances, After specifying the place as this mountain, I asked the knight to aid for it. There is no reason behind this, I mean" (Christopher)
Nild somewhat to the question Christoper. Christopher answered without an unpleasant face. He is a young man who character is well formed.
And as he said, it was almost certain that this letter was not just a delusion.
Even if it is a lie, the problem of some kind is happening, Should it be seen that the guild that grasped it has told the Knights in secret?
"Hmmm. It’s been half a year since I plowed the ground before. Let’s grow trees and contents soon. I wonder if it will go including that confirmation"
"If that’s the case, I will accompany you." (Christoper)
"Please let me accompany you, too."(Nild)
"Good. You too, have had a mission outside from today’s night to tomorrow morning, right? This one is enough for me."
It was two people who seemed disappointing, but I just could not take them. The possibility that a dragon will come out is never zero.
“Ho ho, I feel something wrong”
It is only an intuition, but it feels like there is a good encounter.
Maybe by chance, I have a death wish to meet with a dragon
