Chapter 177 Uncomfortable Feeling

Part 2

“Haaaah? Recharge your Relics? Yowaningen, what do you think I am, desu!? Do it yourself, desu!” (Kruz)

Kruz Argen is a good girl.

She has a bad mouth, but I have been with her for more than three years since I created my Clan, so I know how to get along with her.

I just *pekopeko* bowed my head.

“H-hey, don’t come into my room, desu! What kind of education did you have, desu!? Aaah, don’t do a dogeza, desu! Seriously, doesn’t Yowaningen, have a single shred of pride in him, desu!? It is only troubling me when you behave like that, desu!” (Kruz)

I can’t show my discomfort even when she is complaining to me. As because everything was my fault.

Kruz was confused at my specialty, lowering my back slowly, but surely. Speaking of which, Eliza once told me that to these Spirit People my mannerisms seem to be very strange as they have a lot of pride.

“Co-come on, just quickly take out your Relics, desu! When we are back, you absolutely have to be sure to tell Lucia-san that Kruz has taken great care of you, desu! …… Haaaah!? Yowaningen, when did you use so many Relics, desu! Heyyy! You should be more ashamed when you take them out, desu! Really this Yowaningen――” (Kruz)

Spirit People are a race with an extremely high aptitude for magic. In particular, it is said that their amount of magical power is more than ten times greater than that of humans.

They are the perfect race for recharging Relics. I wish I was a Spirit Person too.

While *punpun* pouting in anger, Kruz recharged the Barrier Rings I gave her.

As expected, it must be tough to recharge multiple Barrier Rings even for a Spirit Person, but those girls are too proud to complain. It is also because Sytry had provoked them in the past.

The Hunters team was assigned a room on the first floor, compared to the Emperor’s――It was one grade lower.

It was designed to be convenient for the guards, but it was luxurious enough even if it was a downgraded one as their basic design was quite high. On top of that, everyone has a private room. I hope the trip ends up being as enjoyable as this.

The sofa was particularly *fukafuka* soft. I sat down and sighed deeply.

“Heyyy! Don’t sit on my sofa, desu! Don’t sigh, desu! Yowaningennn!” (Kruz)

“But really, nothing happened.” (Cry)

“This is what escort requests are supposed to be like, desu. In your mind, what was even supposed to happen desuka?” (Kruz)

No, we can’t let our guard down yet. We mustn’t let our guard down. It is always when I let my guard down like that, that something happens.

But well, this time I have Term with me, I feel a little bit better. Him having a Level 7 certificate means that the Explorer Assoc. rated him? the same as Ark.

Kechakchakka too doesn’t seem as crazy as his looks……

I unsealed the carefully wrapped box I had brought with me. Kruz, who was obviously getting pale because of the recharging, asked me as if to disguise her fatigue.

“Yowaningen, what is that box, desu?” (Kruz)

“I don’t know, but it was placed in front of my room. It had my name on it, so I guess it was for me.” (Cry)

“!?” (Kruz)

The contents of the box were neatly arranged chocolates. There was a message card with a heart mark on it.

The name of the sender wasn’t written, but the way the heart was drawn tells me that it was Sytry. I wonder how she knew where my room was…… So mysterious.

The chocolates inside were all high quality. The reason it contained honey was probably in consideration of the fact that Kruz loves honey.

I made sure that it wasn’t poisoned and bit on one. Kruz was watching over me in a dumbfounded manner.

“Yo-yowaningen, don’t you have the word vigilance in your dictionary, desu!?” (Kruz)

“It is all good.” (Cry)

Because if they wanted to kill me, they didn’t need to use poison. All they have to do is to hit me. Until I don’t have any Barrier Rings that is. Besides, I am here like this with Kruz because I am cautious about it.

The chocolate was very good. As expected of Sytry, she knows what I like. My fatigue of the day seemed to melt away. Moreover, honey is good for your health, too.

My face involuntarily broke into a smile as I ate the chocolate, but Kruz looked at me as if she was taken aback.

And then, at that moment, the room suddenly shook. As I flipped over on the sofa due to the strong impact, I heard an unexpected voice coming from outside the room.

“Dragons. A flock of Chilldra appeared.” (Knight 1)

“Protect his Majesty!” (Knight 2)

“!?” (Kruz)

I doubted my ears. I involuntarily opened my eyes.

That’s ridiculous. We are in a city. There is no way that Dragons will appear in the city of Zebrudia.

What I said was just an example. Or rather, usually my predictions are always wrong. That’s impossible. I have bad luck, but it is not that kind of bad luck that I have.

Rather, aren’t there too many Dragons? I mean, they just came out the other days, isn’t this obviously strange?

Kruz grabbed my arm as I was too stunned to pick up another piece of chocolate. Her right hand was already gripping a long, twisted cane.

“Come on, Yowaningen, let’s go, desu!” (Kruz)

“No, no, they don’t need my help.” (Cry)

“Pull yourself together, desu! And you still call yourself Lucia-san’s brother, desu!” (Kruz)

Oh no. I should have stayed with Kilknight. I am not bragging, but I have never properly fought before.

I am really not worried. This was a truth that came out of a lie, but I should just leave it to Term. However, since I am an escort, I should at least show up once or it will be bad.

Kruz grabbed my arm and forcibly pulled me out. I made a quick decision and took the Barrier Rings that had been charged for me.

I made up my mind. I am not sure if there is anything I can do, but since I have been given such a wonderful carpet, I must do what I can.

So I ran in the direction of the screams with my very reliable friend, Kruz.
