Chapter 426 – Letters (2)

“It is wide.”

He nodded as he looked at the nameless plain in the east, which he arrived shortly after leaving the Jarnshard Manor.

If the northern part is mountainous and rich in minerals, the southern part has large forests and diverse vegetation.

And there are many wide plains in the east and west… Whereas the West was mostly exploited by the Levantine Empire and already used by people, whether for farming or for other purposes.

In the eastern part, there is the Kingdom of Krasius, who is more interested in combat than farming, and other small countries are less developed than the Empire, and there are still many lands left unattended.

The place we arrived is one of those plains. … Not anymore

It’s still the plain itself, but it’s a pity that the front line is nearby, so I’m using it as a substitute for the teleport square.

For reference, the outpost itself is a teleport prohibited area, so you can’t go there at once.

Well, you can do it Most problems can be solved by pouring mana into them.

However, there is no reason to go so far as to tear apart the space-travel-impeding magic field that must have been painstakingly installed. There is no reason to cause a useless dispute.

It’s not a big deal since it’s faster than anything else.

It was the time when he was nodding his head inwardly and trying to cast a simple flight magic on his party.

“Joy!”

Iris raised her magic and resisted my magic.

“… Are you still mad?”

“What are you talking about? I didn’t pout. I just feel like I want to be carried by the owner a little bit.”

“You’re right that I’m sulking…”

He sighed and remembered what had happened a little while ago.

Now that I can use teleport, I tried it, wondering if I could move faster if I used it alternately with Iona.

And indeed it was. As long as you know the spatial coordinates, the system calibration will automatically cast it.

So, by saving Iona the time to recover her magic and the time to calculate the formula, she was able to arrive faster than usual…

Feeling alienated by this, both Iris and herself begged to give it a try.

Of course, since Iris has also reached the end of a high level wizard, she will be able to cast teleport alone.

The problem is that Iris’s teleport, which she is not familiar with like Iona and does not receive system calibration like me, had to be slow because it was such a difficult magic.

So in the future, Iona and I decided to take turns… It must have been swollen there.

While avoiding her gaze by turning her head to the side, she smiled at the figure of Iris who was swaying with both hands stretched out in front of her as if to hug her quickly.

“Okay. Come and see.”

“Hmmmm. Since the owner is reflecting on himself this much, I must forgive him with a broad heart.”

“Is it wide? Mind?”

“Gweeeeeng!”

As I tilted her head at the sight of Iris’ heart, which stretched out like this plain in front of her, Iris climbed onto my back with a threatening sound like a platypus stepping on her tail.

“Once you get on, you get on…”

“That is that and this is this.”

With Iris on her back, who answered in her firm tone, she started flying towards the outpost in the distance.

How far did it fly? Iris opened her mouth, pressing her own plain against the back of her head (her ribs hurt a little), perhaps as revenge for her earlier actions.

“By the way, master.”

“Huh?”

“What the hell was the letter about, why did you leave in such a hurry?”

“Ah, didn’t I explain it in detail and explain it in detail?”

If you look at the contents, you have received it several times these days.

Because she roughly drove out the forces of evil spirits, or was ready to drive them out, she asked me to come and help her so that she could finish it off.

Well, most of them were just guys who thought they were winning or called me to try to make some balls.

“But if it was Tarla who said this, the story would be different.”

“As much as she was a saint of evil spirits, it is a pity that she does not spat out her words about evil spirits.”

“That’s also true, and as you can tell from looking at Carla, she’s not the type to spit out anything to get attention, right?”

Although she was twisted in many ways, it is only natural that she is fundamentally the same person as Carla.

However, Iris made a noise about her, as if she still didn’t like her.

“I’m so embarrassed. Is there any possibility that this is a trap?”

“Why? If you were going to kill us in the first place, you’d have a much better chance. … And even if she doesn’t know what happened, it’s clear that she’s a little bit sane.”

“Ugh. If you say so, then again…”

Iris pouting her lips as if she couldn’t understand. It was the time when Iris lightly patted her buttocks to soothe her.

Before she knew it, Carla, who had come right next to her, asked with a serious expression.

“Master. I’m more curious about what the hell it was about, so Rokan Jarl expressed it as ‘enough to send things like this’.”

“What?”

“Can you show me one more time?”

“It’s not okay…”

Carla is so fierce that she is only a little surprised.

It’s not like Helena or the Solari have turned their eyes to hunting cultists now, so it’s probably some sort of jealousy towards Tarla.

“… Read it knowing that nothing really happened to her.”

“Yes!”

When she took out her letter from her inventory, Carla lit her eyes and began to read, as if she wouldn’t miss a single word.

And it wasn’t long before she was screaming and stamping her feet in the air.

“What is this woman! Why is she suddenly pretending to be close to the master?!”

“Is it? I thought it was a formal, aristocratic letter.”

“There are different kinds of nobility expressions. Among them, there are many expressions that are only used in close relationships!”

“Huh.”

I didn’t know that

Hey bro! Even if it’s not that far, can you say it’s about adding dear to the beginning?

“You sure didn’t try to kill Master at first?! It doesn’t seem like that now, but… How shameless did you have to be to send a letter with the premise that the owner would help you unconditionally?!”

“Well, if I were an evil spirit, would you know that I want to kill you first?”

“Are you on her side now, Master… ?”

“No, why is this happening?”

“But please look at this! Pretend there’s something only the two of you know! The illusion that only you understand the master! It’s an article full of stuff like that! Anyone else think like me?!”

Without a word from her, he took the letter from Carla and handed it to Elisha.

Elisha, who read it quickly, shrugged her shoulders and returned her letter.

“I don’t think it’s that much of a fuss, but… I can understand Carla’s words. I didn’t mention it, but the feeling of trust in you is conveyed throughout the letter. Maybe this is why Lokhan Jarl was surprised? Dwarves are a race that is sensitive to loyalty.”

“Even Elisha said that, so it seems like that…”

After tilting her head a few times, I put her letter into my inventory.

“Well, maybe we can meet and ask about that in person later. Are you almost there?”

“… I see.”

Carla nodded and looked straight ahead at her.

Over there, with Krasius as the main axis, various forces in the east are stationed, and the front line prevents the expansion of the curved leisure.

… It is also the place to form a temporary alliance with Tarla, who has become stronger by absorbing the power of evil spirits.

***

The black walls surrounding the outpost were inferior to those seen in the Jarnshad Territory, but they looked quite sturdy. It’s probably actually a building built by the dwarves.

It wasn’t that the news of Tarla went to the Nidavalir royal family for nothing. One of the artisans stationed for the maintenance of that wall must have posted a report.

However, dwarves are always outsourcers. The actual owner was different. Such is the case with Krasius’ beast warriors.

… And I have Krasius and Eunwon.

“Hmm. Are you a young boy who wants to play as a mercenary? I said that anyone would accept it as long as their identity was clear, but before that, let me make one thing clear. This is where the Crown Prince of Krasius the Great leads directly. That’s not a front for cowards to come to.”

“What?”

“If you run away with your tail in the middle of a fight, you can be executed immediately, so think carefully and present your identity card. It’s a hassle to clean up the child’s corpse.”

“…”

Thanks to magic, the level of civilization in this world has advanced quite a bit, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not an era where anyone can see videos or photos.

In other words, it is said that it is possible to not know who I am just by looking at my face.

This is why the gatekeeper of the nobility is not for everyone. Because I have to memorize the patterns of each family or the faces of the main characters quickly.

He didn’t want that much from the soldiers who worked in turns.

But it’s a different story to be treated as a coward by the Krasius guys who abandoned you when you had to fight even after you supported them.

The guy who let out a sigh as if he had thought of me who only opened his mouth in amazement.

“Ah, yes yes. There must be a reason why you have to stand the ball. But that’s your business. This is a hindrance…”

“Hey.”

A snake beast with vertical pupils squinting at my crooked tone. But before he could even open his mouth, he blew the bamboo bread first.

Fuck!

The guy who rotates several times in the air and tumbles on the floor. It won’t die, but it won’t rise again for a while.

How could an ordinary warrior handle a body that boasted specs higher than that of a knight?

However, originally, gatekeepers are a team of at least two people. Just like now, when one of them is knocked out, the other is to inform them of the attack.

“Chi, intruder! Intruders are here! … Kuck!”

After waiting for another screaming gatekeeper to finish talking, he made it quiet.

There was a commotion here and there, and shortly thereafter, armed troops rushing in.

Most of them were beastmen warriors, but about 20% were of other races. There were the most mercenaries, but there were also moderately mixed priests of the Righteous Church of Light and knights from small countries.

First of all, it was a military facility.

“You know, you know. Did you think about what to do from now on, Yandel student?”

“Sure. I don’t know about the others, but it’s kind of like beating a follower of the Solari, right?”

He shrugged her shoulders and took a deep breath. Then, he cast Pierre, shooting air full of his lungs at once.

“[Do you know who I am?! Come on, Crown Prince!]”

For some reason, Iona giggled.
