Chapter 90: CH 90

There was an incident with Prince Glen’s unplanned shop stop, but after that, the tour proceeded smoothly.

“Mm, this is delicious,” Prince Glen said.

“Mhm-hmm-hmm, it’s the best if it fits your tastes,” Princess Salacia said.

At the restaurant we planned to stop by, Prince Glen enjoyed the dishes prepared by the chefs of Rebelis.

By the way, we in the escort detail also had lunch at the same restaurant. The meat was delicious.

“Huh, I’ve never seen so many varieties of magical devices,” Glen said.

“Recently, the production in our magic ore mines is increasing,” Salacia replied.

At a store in the West District, Prince Glen browsed the magical equipment on offer.

At that moment, I wondered how Thyssel would react looking at all this stuff.

Well, just like that, the schedule for the first day was completely finished.

The disturbing gaze that I felt at the start has been hiding since then, and I think I was relieved to have been an escort in that respect, as well.

It’s very likely that it was my misunderstanding. After all, I may have been a little nervous.

“Princess Salacia, thank you for today,” Glen said.

“No, no, I also enjoyed myself,” Salacia said.

Now, since we’ve gone around the city, we’re back in front of the royal palace.

After parting with Princess Salacia here, Prince Glenn will stay in a noble’s villa, also in here in the North District. By escorting them to this point, the first-day mission of the Knights of Rebelio is over.

Me, I wasn’t as tired as I thought I would be because I was sitting in a carriage. Although I had some mental fatigue, I was fine enough to cope with it being training from now on. If anything, I sat around too much, and now my ass hurts.

“Hold up, you’ve got one more job right now,” Gatago says, turning me around with his big arm.

It’s almost over, but even so, I guess we can’t afford to let our guard down. Above all, the tour will be not only for today but tomorrow and beyond that.

After saying his goodbyes to Princess Salacia, Prince Glens gets into the carriage again.

The distance from the royal palace to the aristocratic villa is not that far. The sun is tilting a little west, but at this pace, we’ll be able to get home ourselves before sunset.

Well then, will I set out again? That said, it’s riding in a carriage.

“–Everyone, Thank you all for your hard work,” Prince Glen called out.

“No, no, we are humbled by your praise,” Alexia said.

It hasn’t been long since. We were able to escort Prince Glen to his aristocratic villa smoothly.

Prince Glen is now standing before us and thanks us, Alexia speaks to him.

“I put myself in your care tomorrow as well,” Glen said.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Alexia said. “We will protect you with the honor of our country.”

Finally, we discuss a bit about tomorrow’s schedule and then say our farewell to Prince Glen here. Well, all we have to do now is go home.

But aside from his initial mischievousness, he’s a polite and honest prince.

I thought royal families were more selfish or domineering, but Princess Salacia and Prince Glenn were really good people, as far as I could see them.

If everyone is such a good person, I wonder if the country should be prosperous as a result? Or are there unpredictable, nefarious scheming and plotting that I, a small citizen, couldn’t imagine? I don’t know much about the top executives.

“Well then, see you all tomorrow,” Gatoga said.

“Yes~,” Rose trilled. “Good day to you all~!”

And here, the members of the Knights of the Faith like Gatoga and Rose also said their goodbyes.

By the way, where will they stay? Well, are there any lodging arrangements around here? I wouldn’t worry.

“Now then, Master, Henblitz, let’s go back as well, shall we?” Alexia asked.

“Ma’am,” Henblitz said.

“Oh, right,” I said.

We return to the Knights’ HQ.

As a temporary plan, we will have a brief meeting inside for tomorrow, and we will be dismissed after that.

It was too early to go to bed, and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have a drink before setting out for tomorrow.

“–Now then, about tomorrow’s plans…” Alexi started.

We’re in a room inside the Knights’ HQ now.

I, Alexia, and Henblitz are left, and we’re just casually reviewing the day’s events. On the table are simple reports submitted by each squad leader.

The other Knights gathered at HQ and then disbanded with a single order from Alexia.

Well, unlike me, who was mostly in a carriage, and Alexia and Henblitz who were walking beside it, the Knights who had been a wall between the people and the royal family were more exhausted. The excursion doesn’t end with today, so I’d like them to get a good rest and prepare for tomorrow and beyond.

“We’re planning to go to the city theater with Princess Salacia from 10 o’clock, after a tour around the Central District.”

“Hmm,” I went.

The theater, is it?

I haven’t seen it, but I wonder if that is just the tastes of the royal family. Personally, I’m not very big on art, so I think it would be a nice change of pace.

“So we’ll be watching with them, huh?” I said.

“That’s the plan,” Alexia said. “There’s also the convenience as their escorts.”

“I see…” I said.

Yeah, I’m scared to fall asleep during the show.

Where the royal family will be viewing from is probably special guest seats or something. 1 It’d be terrible to fall asleep then. In the end, let’s go to bed early and skip the alcohol.

“And after tomorrow, we will reorganize part of the squads,” Alexia continued.

“Huh, why?” I asked.

There should have been no flaws in security today, but what happened?

“No, the jewelry shop that His Highness stopped by has caused a tremendous response from the people. Because of that, we decided to increase the strength of our security.”

“Oh…” I said.

I get it. That wasn’t a planned stop.

If the royal family patronizes it without any prior announcement, it will be the focus of attention. It’s like a big hurricane suddenly hit from nowhere. The shopkeeper will be screaming happily about this day.

“Oh, by the way,” I said.

It’s a good time. Should I share the strange feeling I felt today, with just us here?

I didn’t say it then because it could cause confusion at the scene, but now there are two executive officers. It’s best to share my anxiety.

“Today, I felt a disturbing gaze during the escort,” I said. “I think it was… murderous.”

“That’s–” Alexia started.

The two gasp.

A bit of a nervous air rose in this meeting for tomorrow, when it had been so peaceful and smooth beforehand.

“Did you stop then because of that?” Alexia asked.

“Yes,” I said. “I think it’s gone for the time being as it disappeared soon enough.”

""

The specific danger is still unknown. As I said, there is still enough leeway to dismiss it as just my misunderstanding.

But being wary shouldn’t hurt. It is also our purpose to anticipate various incidents and prepare for them.

“Understood,” Alexia said. “Let’s announce it tomorrow and be vigilant.”

“Yeah, I think it’s better to do that,” I said.

Well, nay reaction would have been fine but it seems neither Alexia nor Henblitz doubted my words. The unconditional trust is a little embarrassing.

Well, even with some murderous intent, it’s another matter whether they can break through the double defenses of the Knights of Rebelio and of the Faith.

In that place where only the select elite people are gathered, such an old man’s feeling out of place is incredible. No, that’s why I might have been pushed into the carriage.

“I suppose that’s about it, as far as you’re concerned?” Alexia asked

“I guess so…” I said. “I don’t think there were any other problems. That being said, I was mostly in the carriage.”

I really was mostly just sitting on my ass in my vehicle. Well, from that point of view, I wouldn’t think there would be a particular security issue.

In the first place, Alexia and Henblitz, who have far more experience than me, are gathered around our targets, so it’s just a problem from my perspective.

“Then, we’re also dismissed,” Alexia said.

“Yeah, good job,” I said.

And so, we parted.

Hopefully, the mission’s schedule will proceed just as planned. Of course, it’s our job to get it done safely, but it’s best to have to put in as little extra effort as possible.

“Now, then,” I said.

What should I do? I can go home and have dinner with Miu, or I can stop by the bar and have a drink.

Since I learned the geography of the city around the Knights’ Government Building, I’m starting to grasp the idea that there are stores like that in this area.

The option to go to a new store here isn’t bad, but it does matter if I get lost or come home late. If I didn’t have plans for tomorrow, I could entertain it, but should I just go into a store I know and enjoy a light meal?

I also want to feel the festive atmosphere, personally.

Ale at the end of work is always delicious.

To replenish my vitality for tomorrow, let’s get some alcohol in me.
