Chapter 19 – The Latina

I decided to take a day off, so it was time to head to the Holy Kingdom.

To be honest, I want to stay in the city and play all day, but I have to leave the city because there is nothing to do and I have to go see the saintess. It was a city that I had only been in for a day, but it was so spacious and full of people that I felt like I didn’t want to leave.

“The line is long..”

Sympathizing with the hero’s words, she nodded her head.

It’s a lot more than you think.

In the first place, it was said that it was one of the big cities where numerous merchants came and went, so it must be natural.

The teleport magic circle was one of the advanced means of transportation used by so many people.

Of course, high class doesn’t mean that only nobles can ride it, but commoners can also ride it if they have a lot of money. It was said that at least nobles could ride it casually whenever there was work, and that the rich did not feel burdened even if they were bored.

I don’t know how much it is because the description in the game is like this.

Apparently, the royal order was given so that those who had the Holy Sword of the Hero could ride it freely without paying, so even if they wanted to know how much it was in the game, they could not. I tried digging into the game, speculating that there might be dummy data in the game, but it didn’t even exist as data.

In the end, as one of the mysteries of this game, the cost of using the teleport magic circle remained, but…

Can you find out now?

I gulped.

I never thought I’d find out like this.

“Are you nervous?”

The hero asked if he noticed my nervousness.

Well, I would be lying if I asked if I wasn’t nervous.

No, I will be able to personally experience the teleportation described in fantasy works, but wouldn’t it be a lie if I did not expect it?

How do you feel

“You don’t have to worry. If you just close your eyes, you will be moving.”

How do you know that

Seeing that he spoke as if he had ridden it, it was all the more certain that he was a regressor.

The setting of the hero I know is that a commoner who came to Seoul from a rural villager accidentally pulled out the holy sword and became a hero, but how could he ride the teleport magic circle? It is impossible unless you are a true regressor.

No matter how I look at it, it seems like it’s testing me..?

First of all, I shouldn’t show my doubts, so I pretended not to know anything and continued to look in the direction of the magic circle with a curious expression.

And,

“..?”

I felt a hand go up over my head.

I couldn’t feel it properly because I was wearing a conical hat, but I was able to fully grasp the fact that the warrior’s hand was reaching over my head and stroking it. Surprised, he raised his hand, grabbed the warrior’s hand, and looked up at the warrior with a puzzled expression.

“Ah, sorry… I didn’t know…”

“…”

What are we going to do with this

Did you think of Rumia before returning?

No matter how close Rumia was as a party member, I don’t think she would have allowed me to fix her hair… I was just surprised and not too angry, so I just looked at the hero for a while and then turned my head.

He’s so tall that his head hurts.

Have I grown taller?

I wish I could ride the magic circle soon.

I heard that the magic circle is different for each road heading to each city.

In other words, since they are now standing in line at the entrance of the teleport station, they have to wait for a long time to get to the station to Latican, the capital of the Holy Kingdom.

“Are you hungry?”

“…”

I wondered why he suddenly bought something to eat for lunch and kept it.

Apparently, there were memories of having a lot of trouble when teleporting in the past.

Anyway, since I’ve decided that I’m not a regressor, it’s strange to know whether the hero has ridden the teleport magic circle or not, and whether or not he has been to the Holy Land, so now I have no choice but to say so.

I thought so as I pushed the sandwich the hero had given me into his mouth.

Right..

Whoops..

I never thought that the side effects of the teleport magic circle would come to me…

Come to think of it, it seems that Rumia didn’t like the teleport magic circle very much. Every time she rode it, it seemed that her complexion turned pale and her mood was down, but since she doesn’t show that, I remember thinking it was a debuff and just passing it over.

Could this be a side effect of the teleport magic?

It’s sad that I can’t even speak, but I can’t imagine how difficult it must have been if I’d experienced these side effects every time I rode the teleport magic circle, an important means of transportation.

I feel sorry for Rumia in the game…

She used it very often because it was annoying, but doesn’t that mean that she felt this sense every time it happened?

I feel uncomfortable..

“Are you okay?”

The warrior patted his back and asked.

Seeing such a warrior made me feel even more guilty.

When I was playing the game, every time Lumia teleported, a debuff appeared in the debuff window, and it was a debuff without a debuff, and it disappeared after a while, so I thought so and passed it on…

Isn’t the warrior coming right up to me as soon as I complain of discomfort?

Is it because I feel like my anger towards the game company is about to rise? No matter how much I wanted to mold the character attractively, why did I bother to make all these details and put them in?

It’s ridiculous. Just.

“Shall I pick you up?”

I shook my head.

His distance is a bit strange…

How long has it been since we met and are you already trying to carry me? But what made it hard to say was that he was really worried about me and tried to carry me, which made me feel worse for having strange thoughts.

I felt nauseous and sick to my stomach, but this was fine.

“I can’t.”

The hero approached the staff at the teleport station asking for a moment.

I wondered what he was trying to do, so he took money out of his pocket, handed it over, and brought something like a potion.

What.

That sounds like a lot of money.

“Drinking this will make you feel better.”

The hero smiled brightly and handed me the potion.

No, such a refreshingly crazy guy..

It’s just a side effect of the teleport magic circle, so I’m just sick of it, but what kind of potion did I even buy and bring?

Isn’t this expensive?

“Don’t worry, it’s not very expensive. It is a drug given to people who complain of side effects.”

“…”

Is it like that..?

I felt even more guilty.

I thought that even if I paid a little more, I should have bought a potion like this and fed it to Lumia. After receiving the potion the hero had given me, I looked down at the cork stuck very firmly into the lid of the glass bottle.

…

First time seeing something like this

Looking around the glass bottle, I grabbed the top part of the cork and strained to pull it out.

“..! ..!”

What is this..

Not picked?

Why is this.. So hard..

“Oh, I’m sorry. It will be difficult to pull out.”

The hero took the bottle with an awkward smile, casually grabbed the stopper and pulled it out.

“…”

What is that

“Drink.”

I accepted the glass bottle with a blank expression.

Wasn’t this something an adult man couldn’t pull out?

No, you can pull it out, but wouldn’t it just break with that kind of grip?

“Huh? What’s going on?”

I shook my head.

Come to think of it, this guy was a madman who grabbed several of those muscular, big adult men and blew them away dozens of meters at the same time. Since he is a warrior in the first place, his physical ability is at an absurd level, so he can perform a ridiculous eccentricity of holding the stopper with his hand and pulling it out.

So what are you trying to understand?

I’ve given up on understanding.

Latina.

A huge city that is the capital of the Holy Kingdom and where the Holy See exists.

Of course, it is the safest place in the world that is protected by the barriers of the clergy, as well as the three knight commanders, each of whom has been gifted with a divine sword. Would you call it a city bestowed by God?

It was surrounded by a huge wall, and in the center was a city where the pope and young girls from all over the world gathered every year to receive the christening ceremony.

Among those many girls, only one girl is chosen as a saint and raised as a saint.

And that saint was the baptismal name Cecilia.

He is the heroine of this game.

“How is it? Isn’t it cool?”

Looking at the spectacle in front of my eyes, I was speechless.

I don’t think the real Pope was like this.

I made a puzzled expression and nodded.

Could Cecilia be in a place like this?

I gulped.

“Shall we go in?”

“…”

I nodded.

The Cecilia in the game had already seen each other, but it was the first time meeting Cecilia in real life and in Rumia’s body, so I wondered what kind of girl Cecilia would be.

I wish we could be friendly.

I took a step forward with excitement in my heart.
