Cheat Magician (Hazure Hantei) Chapter 44
Let's aim to become coachmen!
***---***
"If we go back to the original place, it will be useless."
It was time to start talking after discussing the rescue operations using sleeping pills and deciding to train to drive the carriage.
Kobayashi-san immediately raised a voice of protest against the words Yagi said.
"Hey fake glasses, don't you want to go home? Do you want to stay in this world for the rest of your life?"
"That's not it, I don't mean that, don't jump to the wrong conclusion."
"Then, what do you mean, spill it."
"We were summoned from the third floor of the school building, think about what would happen if we returned to that exact same place."
Hearing Yagi's words, we looked at each other.
"I don't know if it's being demolished, under construction, or what's going on at the school, but what if we fall from the height of the third floor to the ground? It could be a mess ..."
"Then, what should we do ..."
"I don't know the whole situation, but I'm sure it'll be a big deal if we go back without thinking, right?"
"We ... can we actually go home?"
Sakurai-san's words that she unintentionally blurted are the same anxieties that everyone has.
"That princess, naturally we could return, she said something like that ..."
"She also said the bracelet was to prevent the rampant magical power ... she lied so calmly ..."
As the old and new duo say, I don't know how true Camilla's words are, and I even feel that it's more likely to be a lie.
"Hey Kokubu, do you have any information about that?"
"Um, I've prioritized the rescue of everyone, so I haven't investigated anything about summoning or repatriation yet."
"Once the rescue is over, we'll have to negotiate with Camilla, but it's better to look for it separately, right?"
"That's right, if the Third Princess knows, there should be information from other royalty and books."
As Yagi said, it would be better to find a way to return to Japan from another source other than Camilla.
"Well ... do you think it's okay to just go back to Japan?"
Yagi asked while looking around at the other five people.
"Just go home like this ... what do you mean?"
"I'm talking about compensation. It's a terrible thing that Funayama has died, can we go home without any compensation?"
In response to Kobayashi-san's question, Yagi made a ring with his thumb and index finger, suggesting a claim for compensation.
"Isn't it meaningless to bring this money home even if you say compensation?"
"Idiot, Kokubu's an idiot! Obviously, we demand it as gold, silver, or other precious metals."
"Oh, I see ..."
"Isn't it like Camilla said, we're going to cooperate and get rewarded, or die ... I mean, she'll prepare the reward with precious metal and bring it home."
It should be said that this is exactly as expected of fake glasses, but we've certainly suffered from this much inconvenience, so it should be okay to get some sort of compensation.
When we talk about compensation, we naturally turn our attention to the question of responsibility.
"Yagi, it's okay to get some money, but what about the princess, do we keep her alive?"
"She killed Funayama, shouldn't she get the death penalty?"
"Isn't it impossible to demand compensation and execute the royal family?"
"Isn't it the knight who was directly responsible that should be executed?"
It seems that there is a slight difference in temperature between the old and new duo and the dekoboko sisters.
"Kokubu, what do you think?"
"Hmm ... what should we do ...?"
I was surprised when asked by Yagi, but the strong murderous intent did not spring up like immediately after Funayama died.
Maybe it's because I reduced my bloodthirst through Project Meisa, or because Camilla is worried about the people suffering from desertification. I feel like ...
"Well ... what would happen under Japanese law?"
"Huh? Japanese law?"
"No, with the law here, it wouldn't be a crime if the royal family killed a commoner, so I was wondering what would happen if it were Japan ..."
"Under Japanese law, if you killed one person, you wouldn't get a death sentence, rigth?"
"Is it murder? Or is it a fatal business accident?"
At my question, the old and new duo from the athletic clubs and the dekoboko sisters tilted their heads, so the one to answer my question became Yagi.
"He was assaulted and died the next day ... Like that, so it was a fatal injury?"
"Camilla didn't touch him directly, but she was in a position to supervise, right?"
"In that case, wouldn't it be a fatal business accident? Ah ... I don't know!"
"Yeah, but, without any criteria, this one died, so kill that one too ... It's easy to understand, but I feel like it's not a solution."
"Why don't you kill all the knights?"
"That's no good, if the knights are gone, who will protect the city if a monster crosses the river and invades Lastock?"
"That's ... it's not our concern, right?"
"I think it could be a woman or a child who wasn't involved, but is that okay?"
"No, that's ..."
You might think that we grew up in peaceful Japan and we're peace idiots, but I think it's not the solution to just kill someone.
"And if Camilla was lying and there is no way for us to go back, wouldn't we have to live here with the grudge of having killed the knights?"
"Then what are you saying?"
"Hmm ... like the compensation that Yagi said plus imprisonment ...?"
"I don't understand everything ... but would it be like that?"
"The final negotiations are with the teachers ... By the way, what about the teachers?"
"I don't know ... After coming here and being judged for magical power, it seems like they were on another carriage ..."
It seems that the old and new duo and the dekoboko sisters also shook there heads and didn't know.
"Well, Ayako-sensei was there, right?"
"Aya-chan ... wasn't she mistaken as a student because of her appearance?"
"Well, that could be true about Ayako-sensei, but it would be a problem if there were no other teachers, right?"
"No ... it's not a problem, right?"
"No, I'm afraid we have to go back together, dealing with related places, dealing with the media ..."
"Well, I can't just leave them ... but where are they?"
I was distracted by training and magic, and didn't realize that the teachers weren't there.
"Well ... are the problems increasing again ..."
"Isn't it okay if Kokubu doesn't do anything?"
"Yagi, if you were still in Lastock, could you still say that?"
"Uh ... that's right ..."
I decided to have the five people wait here for training related to driving a carriage from tomorrow on, and decided to return to the boarding house.
Although the plan of the rescue operation has been decided, the problem of not knowing the whereabouts of the teachers has been added, and I think that the feeling of frustration that things aren't going well has increased.
It seemed that we talked longer than I thought we did, and Amanda-san and the others were already sleeping until early in the morning.
Even if they lock the door, it's okay for me because I can move using the shadows, so the door of the house is locked.
So, I went back to my room directly by moving through the shadows.
[ Haa ... I'm kind of tired ... ]
[ Kent-sama ... What about the Saint-sama's care ...? ]
[ Oh, I haven't gone yet ... I forgot ... ]
I hurried to the room in Lastock, but the chairman was already asleep.
I just let the healing magic flow, while being careful not to wake her up, forgive me for tonight.
When I returned to the boarding house in Volzard, Reinhardt told me.
[ Kent-sama, you seem to be overdoing it. ]
[ Yeah, just a little ... but now I feel like I have to overdo it. ]
[ But if Kent-sama collapses, the plan will be unable to be carried out. That could endanger your classmates. ]
[ That's right, but ... I'm impatient. ]
[ For the time being, you should take a rest tonight, and I'll have Fred and Basten look into the teacher situation. ]
[ Sorry, I'm counting on you ... ]
I seemed tired, probably because I was going back and forther between Lastock and Volzard, and I fell asleep as soon as I lay down on the bed.
In my dreams, I went to the chairman's bedroom and tried to care for the sleeping chairman, Beatrice appeared and stole my lips without running away, and Manon was stunned by Beatrice. As a result, I ate a slap and woke up.
Hmm ... I wonder why the ending isn't getting better despite the increasing number of characters.
I felt refreshed because I didn't have any special training in the middle of the night.
Even if I'm impatient or depressed, the problem will not be solved, so I won't lose my positive feelings.
[ Good morning, Kent-sama. ]
[ Good morning, Reinhardt, I feel refreshed because I went to bed early. ]
[ Well, that's good, and about the aforementioned teachers, we know where they are. ]
[ Really, do you know? ]
It seems that Fred and Basten found out while I was sleeping.
[ Outside of Lastock ... They're confined in another building ... ]
[ Is it far from the garrison? ]
[ Leaving the city, it's on the other side of the wheat field, there's a little distance. ]

[ Why are things so different only for the teachers? ]
[ Maybe to eliminate those who are in charge of the students. ]
According to Reinhardt, in the case of an organization such as a school, the teacher has the role of leading the students, so it may be better to keep the role as it is, but in a harsh environment like this time, they may be the coordinator of a rebellion, so they should be isolated.
It seems that the aim is to remind the captives that it is knights of Resenburg who are in command.
[ What kind of situation are the teachers in at that facility? ]
[ I just found the place ... I don't know the details ... ]
[ That's right, we just started looking for it last night, we don't know. ]
[ However, it doesn't seem to be a very good environment. ]
It seems that they just looked around the facilities and bedding of the facility, but it seemed to be equal to or inferior to the dormitory of the garrison.
[ Of course, there were knights stationed at that facility, right? ]
[ Of course ... but not many ... ]
[ Maybe it's because they're wearing the slave bracelets, they don't think they can escape or revolt, but the doorway of the dormitory is locked. ]
There are a total of six teachers, two women and four men (excluding Ayako-sensei), and both women are middle-aged, and the male teachers are all middle-aged men, except for Furudate-sensei the science teacher who is relatively youn.
Kato-sensei who was in charge of health and physical education seems to be able to move well even if he is middle-aged, but I still think that he is physically inferior to the knights.
Hmm ... I think it's better not to look at them as combat force.
Let's make a map of Lastock, including the facilities where the teachers are confined, and let's finish breakfast and head to the garrison's dormitory for the time being.
"Good morning, Amanda-san."
"Ah, good morning Kent, did you come back late yesterday?"
"Yes, I was talking a little about future plans, so I was late."
"Going out so late ... well, is Kent okay because he has an escort?"
"Yes, but I'll try to be home as soon as possible."
"Oh, do that, because it's safer."
It's nice to have someone who is worried.
"That's right, Kent has to come back early."
"Meisa too, are you worried about me?"
"If Kent doesn't come back, the skeleton oji-chan's won't come back, right? So you have to come back early."
"Guu ... Meisa-chan, even if Reinhardt and the others come back, you'll still be worried about bedwetting."
"Kii ... I won't do it! I won't do it anymore! Kent you idiot, idiot, Manon-chan, Beatrice-san, don't be fooled!"
"Guha ... That's right, Manon's misunderstanding hasn't been resolved."
After going to the garrison and talking about getting training related to driving a carriage, we will start training as it is, I have to go to Lastock during lunch break and take care of the chairman, and at what timing should I report to Donovan-san ... Oh, I want another body.
"Look, eat your breakfast, eat well and do your best today as well."
That's right, I can't do my best all day if I don't eat well.
After breakfast, I went through the side streets to the garrison's dormitory.
There seems to be danger in the main street, so this is also the wisdom of life.
Kartz-san was naturally in the garrison's dormitory, so I asked him about horse handling training.
"I see, you're trying to escape with a carriage."
"Yes, maybe we have to learn from connecting a horse to a carriage ..."
"No, Kent, it's from where you can put on the bits at first."
"Bits ...?"
Bits seem to be the metal fittings at the tip of the bridle and the part where the horse is attached.
In addition, it seems that it is necessary to wear a harness to connect to the carriage, and it seems that it is difficult to understand just by listening.
"Well, let's get you used to a horse first, then how to put on the harness, and then drive the carriage that was actually connected."
"Yes, we don't know anything anyway, so thank you, we will learn to handle a horse ..."
"That's right, that would get you used to horses sooner, I'm counting on you."
With Kartz-san's consent, we decided to learn how to handle horses instead of doing work such as caring for horses.
I went to the stables with the other five, but I was concerned about Yagi but he was unexpectedly sharp, severely astonishing me.
"Kokubu, you ... you don't think I'll do something related to the success or failure of the rescue operation."
"Well ... I mean, be like this every day."
"Hmm ... that's an impossible task!"
"No, it's not that tough."
Kartz-san introduced me to a veteran stableman named Raymond-san.
He is a bear beastman who has deep laughing wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and has round ears on his head.
"Okay, first warning, you can't stand behind the horse! Absolutely, do you want to be kicked and die?"
Horses are said to be timid animals by nature, and if you carelessly approach them from behind, they may kick backwards with their hind legs.
Also, if you are nervous, it will be transmitted, so it is safer to calm down and show that there will be no harm from you or the tools you use.
"The garrison and the horses of the knights you borrow have to have been properly trained, otherwise they won't help you at the crucial moment."
It's true that the horses from the knights can't be allowed to have their instincts run wild.
The horses are far more experienced than us, who are amateurs, and we have to be careful not to interfere with the work of the horses.
After hearing the warnings from Raymond-san, we finally met the horses, but as expected, they are big.
"No way ... their eyes are so big and round and cute!"
"Really, they look so kind."
Oh, as expected of the dekoboko sisters, they give such a fearless impression.
"Kazuki, the way these muscles look is wonderful."
"It feels like it was trained to run."
Yeah, the old and new duo are also curious in a different sense.
"What's wrong Yagi, why don't you look closer?"
"Oh? Oh ... how should I put it, I'll stay near Kokubu ..."
"Eh, I, I'll do it afterwards ..."
"How should I put it, it was your idea in the first place."
"That's right, but ..."
I'm a little scared because I'm likely to be bitten.
"Look, the two of you are making the horses wary when you're scared like that."
"N, no ... The only one who's scared is Kokubu, I'm fine ..."
"Wh, what are you talking about ... I'm also ... Owaa ..."
I'm sorry, I'm scared of horses, I've never kept an animal, and I'm not good with big dogs.
But I can't be scared forever, so I fearfully touched it.
"Oh, it's warm ..."
"Stupid, stupid Kokubu, that's natural since it's alive."
"No, that's right, but ..."
"You're able to defeat wolf monsters that are bigger than this, so what's scary?"
"No, if it's just defeating, it's not scary, but I'm not fighting ..."
Well, I felt a little better when I thought that if I was bitten or kicked, I would be able to use self-healing.
Today, in the sense of getting used to the horse, it was decided that we would start by attaching a tow rope and doing a pulling exercise.
There are many horses in the garrison, so one horse is assigned to each person.
"Okay, boy you get this Snatch."
The one assigned to me was a brown-haired mare, with white hair growing only at the tip of the left hind leg, and it seems that she is wearing socks only there.
"Thank you, Snatch."
"Bururuuu ..."
"Oh, oh ..."
I'm not familiar with horses, so I'm not sure, but I feel that this horse is somehow more stout and robust than a thoroughbred.
While being taught by Raymond-san, I put on the harness to be attached to the tow rope, then connect the tow rope, and start leading the horse.
"Then, Snatch wait a moment, where are you going, wait, wait, Snatch ..."
The other five horses are quietly standing still, but for some reason Snatch drags me and walks steadily.
I tried to stop her with the tow rope, but she was stronger than I expected and I couldn't stop her.
"Hyahyahya, Kokubu, how far are you intending on going?"
"I don't know! Ask Snatch!"
Snatch dragged me to the sandbox near the horse riding grounds and suddenly lay down and begain rubbing her body in the sand.
With her legs facing up, her stomach is exposed, and she rolls around in the sand.
Eeh ... wait, what are you doing?
"Oh boy, my bad, this fellow likes to take sand baths."
"Sand bathing ...?"
"Ah, it's said that they rub their body against the sand to get rid of parasites, but unlike the wile, they don't have any parasites, so it just feels good."
"Hmm ... is that so?"
Well, it certainly looks good, but it's kind of like a dog or cat, not a horse.
Snatch rolled around in the sandbox for a while, but then she suddenly stood up, and shook the sand off her body. Are you satisifed, what kind of exercise are we going to do? She looked at me with a face like that.
I don't think it's just my imagination that she seemed to grin.
