A Casual Boy In Another World - Chapter 10 The Giant Commander

“Holy Queen, we will adhere to any of your orders.”, the Giant Commander’s voice echoed inside his silver and black helmet which made it heavy while his head low and knees on the ground but even so, his back was still taller than the Holy Queen who was sitting on the throne chair atop of the stairs.

Besides the Giant Commander were the Elite Soldiers that were directed under his command, they wore silver armors. They too kneeled on the floor with their head hung low. The combination of these soldiers was intimidating even if they are paying their respect.

However, Ilia stepped forward without a sweat in front of these men.

“Lift your heads.”, she domineeringly said.

The soldiers lifted their head and were surprised that the maid was the one who commanded them, but no one refused.

“The Holy Queen called you here for a reason.”, her eyes became eerie as they looked upon the vigilant eyes of the soldiers, “The Holy Queen wants you to catch a man, dead or alive”

“Alive!”, the Holy Queen butted.

The maid coughed and repeated, “Alive or barely alive.”

“Alive! No one can touch him except me!”, the Holy Queen frowned in anger.

The maid closed her eyes for a short while and continued, “His name is Cass and he is a simple guard in the nearby town outside the city. Lock all the gates immediately and let no one get outside without inspection.”, her voice was smooth and low but it was clearly heard by the soldiers.

“Don’t bother with the war with the demons. Prioritize on capturing this man. If he escaped the city then search everywhere in the whole world.”, the maid said something ridiculous and the soldiers wanted to rebuke. The war with the demons was the most important thing that the kingdom should prioritize yet this maid just said to not bother with it?! How important is this guard and what did he do to the Holy Queen?! However, nobody spoke up. They don’t know why and how but they’re scared of this maid.

“Holy Queen, could you describe this guard?”, the Giant Commander asked.

The Elite Soldiers looked up to him with admiration, ‘That’s the Giant Commander for you!’

“Hmmm,”, the Holy Queen pondered for a while. Her fair face was troubled and looked like a piece of art bestowed by the heavens.

The soldiers looked at her face and felt refreshed but not even a second, they felt someone glared swords at them. These swords made the legendary swords looked cheap. Their eyes subconsciously rolled away.

“If I have to describe it, it would be that he is intolerable, shameless.”

The maid nodded as every description was said.

“Heinous, despicable demon, a liar, sharp-tongued, and and that’s all!!”, the Holy Queen puffed her cheeks in anger.

The soldiers looked at each other. The maid noticed this and asked the Holy Queen again, “My Queen, what about his physical appearance?”

The soldiers nodded in agreement.

“Hmm, he’s good-looking, always calm, and his eyes, his eyes were always half-closed as if everything is a bother to him! How dare he! His eyes were black and his hair too was black but a bit bluish, he id also just wearing normal villager’s shirt and pants. He looks a year older than me.”, the Holy Queen nodded in satisfaction with a Hm! Hm!*

“.”

Even the maid and the healer were silent.

“What?”

“Nothing, my Queen. You are truly the Holy Queen to notice such details.”, the maid praised.

The Holy Queen smiled and was flattered, “It’s because he was interesting, that’s all.”

‘My Queen! Did you forgot that you’re angry with that guy?!’, the maid kept it to herself and stared at the Giant Commander, “I expect you to find him immediately. Go and do your work.”

“Yes”, the Giant Commander’s voice reverberated inside his silver and black helmet, making the tone heavier. They stood and bowed one last time.

The Giant Commander – Nobody knew where he came from but after becoming a soldier, he quickly climbed position and easily became a commander and along with his legends, he became the Giant Commander who has the respect of all other soldiers, knights, and even the people of the kingdom.

The Giant Commander was unknown even now. Nobody knew what he looked like under that silver and black armor. It is a mystery how he got that big. Some say that he has the bloodline of a Titan which came before the Gods but was immediately declined since he shouldn’t stop at being the commander then. He should go into the heavens and fight Gods. Some say he is one of the races of the Giants but was immediately declined because the giants are way bigger.

The strength of the Giant Commander was incomparable to anyone. A rumor spread that he once destroyed a whole mountain with just a few punches.

The Giant Commander walked out of the throne with haste as the huge door opened slowly.

Clang!*

A huge helmet rolled onto the red carpet of the throne room.

….

“Ah”, a hairless skinny old man’s head was on top of the huge armor, shivering. The huge armor moved, took the helmet, and put it on.

….

Whoosh!* everyone wants to soap their eyes.

The Giant Commander bowed again and tried to get out of the throne room.

Clang!* the helmet did not come off but the hairless skinny old man’s head was revealed again, looking troubled.

“.”

“Um Giant Commander, slow down, remember the door is smaller..”, Manra didn’t know what’s happening but reminded the Giant Commander out of pure kindness.

The knees of the Giant Commander bend and walked step by step, out of the throne room.

“…”

….

Fortunately for the Giant Commander, the Elite Soldiers at the time were blinded for a reason. The Holy Queen wasn’t looking, the healer was dazing, and the maid closed her eyes.

“Huh? What was that sound? I can’t see anything!”, one of the Elite Soldier struggled to walk.

“Shut up! Your acting is terrible!”

“Acting? Who said who was acting?”, the Elite Soldier said exaggeratedly.

“Damn it! Even if you deny it, you’re acting is still pretty shitty.”

As if the Giant Commander hadn’t heard of anything, he slowly walked out.

“See! As expected of the Giant Commander! He didn’t need to act!”

“Shut your mouth! You’ve been giving us off!”

“I’m just telling.”

“Don’t tell, just act!”

“There! You said act!

“Arggh! Shut up!”

The bond of the Elite Soldiers seemed to be not that strong. Yes, that must be it. However, they are just extras. Inside the throne room, the action continues.

“What was happening? My eyes were looking at the ceiling at the time.”, the Holy Queen cutely looked around while not acting.

Ilia stared at her and quickly recorded it to her mind.

“Y-yeah, it looks like the Giant Commander and the Elite Soldiers are now gone.”, Manra laughed while not acting, “Ha ha ha-”

‘These two’s acting is shittier than the Elite Soldiers’. Big sister Manra, your laugh is monotonous.’, Ilia thought but doesn’t care since even Manra became cute.

“My Holy Queen, do you want to eat breakfast now?”, she then looked at Manra, “Big sister, want to join?”

“”, Irene stared at her for a moment before happily agreeing, “Yes, I’m getting hungry now.”

“Yeah, me too, I was getting hungry that I dozed off.”, Manra laughed again.

“Then I’ll immediately prepare.”

Irene stood up and entered the door beside the throne chair. Manra and then Ilia followed.

Nobody knew who is inside the Giant Commander’s armor. Some say he has a bloodline of the Titans but was immediately declined since he should be fighting in the heavens with the Gods, not in this mortal earth. Some say he is one of the races of the Giants but was too immediately declined since the Giants are way bigger. The Giant Commander has always been a mystery to everyone.

Nobody knew what’s inside the huge armor and nobody wants too. As long as the Giant Commander is the Giant Commander, everything is fine.

At that time, the Holy Queen angrily thought, ‘If he can not capture Cass, then I’ll ban him from wearing his helmet! But if he successfully captured Cass then I’ll let him upgrade his armor for free so that an accident will never happen.’

Then the hairless skinny old man’s head whose eyes were close and shivering flashed through her mind.

‘As long as the Giant Commander is the Giant Commander, everything is fine.’
