Shini Yasui Kōshaku Reijō To Nana-ri No Kikōshi Chapter 63
Chapter 64
The morning of the second day after visiting the Trade City Knot Reed .
I woke up with the feeling of something hitting my cheek .
The true ident.i.ty of the furry thing that touched me over and over even when I pushed it away was a cat’s tail .
On my bedside, Palug who had come home unnoticed was sleeping with her legs spread open .
It was safe as she was in her cat form .
No, whichever form she was in, that was no good?
For the time being, I put a suitable cloth to cover her .
Although I wanted to comment about her sleeping posture, I would endure it because she had been working hard .
『Meow~……as the chief of the angels, on the annual Holy Angel’s holidays……I shall demand for a dedicated handsome dancer~……mrrrow . 』
“No, how is that okay?”
Oops, I made a comment without thinking .
Palug woke up while rubbing her face with her forelimb .
『Oh, morning, Erica . You’re early today . 』
“Good morning, Palug . I just happened to wake up early . ”
I purposely didn’t touch on the subject of her sleep-talking or the matter about her tail, letting it go .
Revitalized, I also greeted Tirnanog who was lying on my feet .
“Good morning, is Tir also going to wake up?”
『Nn……umu, I have no problem waking up anytime . 』
There seemed still time before a maid brought the breakfast here .
Let’s hear about the results of last night’s investigation from Palug .
“How was last night, Palug?”
I got off the canopied bed and walked to the built-in writing desk .
I opened the notebook with the summary I put together last night, and prepared a feather pen and ink .
『I went to the pilgrimage destinations written in the book that Erica had bought . 』
『It was probably around a different branch of the Varnalis River . 』
『……It was an interesting result . I went to three places last night . 』
In spite of saying that it was interesting, Palug’s tone of voice seemed to indicate that she didn’t find it amusing at all.
I could hear a slight irritation and anger .
『There was an altar of the Holy Lord and the angel, though .
The surface part where the believers would make a pilgrimage was still beautiful . 』
“Surface part?”
『The true altar to devote spiritual power as an offering is hidden in the lower part . 』
“Heeh, I see . ”
『The precious true altar seemed to be normal at first glance but the ritual had been corrupted and camouflaged . 』
This was an unexpected information .
Originally this investigation was to check that the importance of the altar had not deteriorate and destroyed .
『The spiritual power that had been gathered was scattered in the sea . 』
“Such a thing, is that okay!?”
『Well, who knows……but there are changes in marine life, especially in the magical beast species . 』
Tirnanog who had been listening quietly while Palug and I talking, opened his mouth .
『Magical beast, huh . By the way I’ve heard about such a thing from the shop owner .
It seems that the damage by kraken has increased in the waters around Knot Reed for nearly three years . 』
There was a premonition that I had poked a bush and found a snake .
What was this .
『Heeh~~ . What an interesting story . 』
Palug say so while looking like she didn’t find it interesting at all .
Well, that was natural .
For example, using a metaphor, if the protection money was not paid, it was natural to be abandoned .
『There was also a shrine of a phantom beast that was probably a subst.i.tute for the local G.o.d, but all the functions had stopped .
It seems that it was completely destroyed along with the phantom beast over hundreds of years ago . 』
“That means, that place is safe for the time being . ”
I opened a list of temples for pilgrims that I had listed last night .
I quickly made check boxes next to the list .
『Last night it was here . 』
For each temple I made two types of check boxes, which were ‘the presence or absence of a camouflage’ and ‘phantom‘phantom beast’ .
“As for the matter of camouflage, I will contact the church of Ignitia later and have them repaired . ”
『I will be saved if you do so . 』
As we continued our discussion, I heard a knocking sound .
It seemed to be the maid who brought our breakfast .
I would repeat the schedule we had confirmed last night before we had breakfast .
When the maid went away after changing clothes, I subst.i.tuted myself with Palug .
Following the same procedure as yesterday, we went out of Water Palace .
I held hands with the all-black Tirnanog and slipped into the crowd of people .
“The main purpose is to receive the wands, but I’m hoping to see Harold and Gilbert . ”
『Umu, that’s right . 』
After pa.s.sing by a gorgeous horse-drawn carriage as we headed towards Town of All Kinds of Goods, we were stopped from behind .
“Oo~i! By any chance, it’s Erica, right!?”
A familiar voice .
When I turned around, a boy was waving his hand from inside the carriage .
A boy with blonde hair were rushing towards our direction as he got off from the horse carriage .
The boy was wearing a crimson cloak and was accompanied by three dragons .
The colors of the three dragons were gold, white, and red respectively .
“Auguste-sama! Long time no see . Those are the children that have just hatched, right!?”
“Aah, the red one is Briar and the white one is Blumbell . ”
“I’m glad they hatched, congratulations . ”
Auguste smiled very happily .
I was glad that he had succeeded in hatching the dragons, it made me happy too .
The golden dragon Goldberry on Auguste’s shoulder peered into Tirnanog’s face and her expression suddenly turned bright .
Did she found out his true ident.i.ty?
What should I do if Auguste noticed it .
As I thought that, Goldberry remained still on Auguste’s shoulder in a stance just before she leapt .
She seemed to be suffering while looking at mine and Tirnanog’s face alternately .
Ah, she was reading our expression and atmosphere .
Perhaps because she had become an older sister,older sister, she seemed to be smarter than when I saw her before .
Looking at the state of Goldberry, Tirnanog gently held his hand out in front of her .
When Goldberry jumped onto his arm with a joyful expression, Tirnanog placed her on top of his head .
“Kyuu……”
『Fumu . It was as I heard, it seems that she likes the golems Ojou-sama made . 』
Goldberry seemed to be full of tranquillity on Tirnanog’s head .
Tirnanog looked at her and murmured .
It seemed that he was going to mislead with this direction .
I nodded while making eye contact with Tirnanog .
“Is this person your escort? Heeh, is this a golem prosthesis made by Erica?”
“Yes, this is my employee .
I made some golem prosthesis for his body because of a major accident, but my guardian is strong enough . ”
『Umu . I have died once, but I was helped by Ericojousama .
Since then, I regard the fact that being a guardian of Ericojousama is the reason for my existence . 』
Fully human golem and homunculus were illegal .
Adding two more layers to my face’s thickness, I lied smoothly .
Tirnanog added words that were not lies, but were likely to be misunderstood .
Before I knew it, the two red and white dragons began hovering while flapping their wings in front of my eyes .
Their round and clear eyes were staring at us with curious appearances .
Both of them had jewel-like sparkling eyes, they were very beautiful .
“Nice to meet you . Please take care of me, Briar and Blumbell . ”
“He~y, come and introduce yourselves, you two . ”
“Kuu……”
“Kyu~! Kyu~~!”
Red Dragon Briar and White Dragon Blumbell bowed their heads to me .
I felt a subtle character difference from their cry .
The one with red scales and spessartine eyes, Briar, had a modest and quiet character .
The one with white scales and ruby-colored eyes, Blumbell, was an active and energetic child .
“Uwah, uwaaah, how cute! Your dragons are cute, Auguste-sama……!!”
“Right~?”
Unlike the refined style of the small dragon Goldberry, these two felt bulky .
The body that
The body that had the atmosphere of ‘I’m getting bigger now’ was very lovely .
“Nice to meet you, Briar and Blumbell . ”
I held my arm out to become a scaffolding for the young dragons, and Blumbell quickly got on .
This child had a quicker movement .
“Kyu!”
“Ku~……”
Because Briar who missed it looked so sad, I put Blumbell on my head and called Briar .
Then Briar jumped into my arms timidly .
Auguste who was watching the situation raised his voice in admiration .
“Heeh, you’re hugging already?”
“They are good children . ”
While enjoying the feeling of the smooth scales of the young dragon, I asked Auguste .
“By the way, did Auguste-sama come to Knot Reed for the launching ceremony?”
“Aah, I subst.i.tuted for my father . I just arrived yesterday evening . ”
“Yesterday? Huh, what about the other people from Ignitia?”
Incidentally, the aristocrats from Ignitia supposed to arrive today using the old aircraft carrier .
Did he arrive at Knot Reed earlier?
“Certainly, I was supposed to come using the old-style aircraft carrier this afternoon .
I came through the Varnalis River after doing an examination in Lindis . ”
I see, s Auguste was using a different route, huh .
Since Lindis was in the upper stream of Varnalis, he only had to came down the river from there .
“Since I have arrived in Knot Reed with great troubles, I was about to go out to buy supplies for these children . ”
“And then you found me . ”
“You seem to have come out to shop . Oops, don’t do that, Blumbell . ”
As the naughty Blumbell began to pull my hair with her mouth, Auguste lifted her up .
“Yes, I was also trying to buy a bit of alchemy tools . ”
“I see, alright, why don’t I send you to your destination with my carriage as I also have something to talk to you about?”
“Thank you very much, Auguste-sama . ”
Because he had generously offered it, I got on the carriage .
It was hard to give up the boat, but since he wanted to talk then a closed s.p.a.ce would be better .
