Fun Territory Defense of the Easy-Going Lord ~The Nameless Village Is Made Into the Strongest Fortified City by Production Magic - 116 [Another point of view] Alte's thoughts

The moment Theato Village was close enough to enter the City of Adventurers, I felt my shoulders relaxed.

Did I feel relieved? I didn’t realize it because I was obsessed, but I always seemed nervous. As shoulder strength falls off, fatigue instantly dominates the body.

It would have been easier than the adventurers who scouted me when I was riding horses and carriages. Even though, I feel like I’m already falling.

We’re almost there. It’s been a while since I’ve slept in my bed.

Pullriel, who was riding in the same carriage, gently encouraged me.

I may be an adventurer, but I’m an adult woman who has more experiences than I do. I think it is spare and dressed well.

“…… I can’t do it, can I?”

Comparisons are made, and unconscious words of self-masochism emerge. Then, Puriel’s gaze turned to us. I couldn’t see his face and fell down.

Oh, I’m really pathetic. Without knowledge, we can’t do anything without relying on someone. Above all, I’m sad that I can’t be confident, and I hate myself.

What does Puriel think of me like that? Would you laugh at me if I were a pathetic person? When I think about it, I’m embarrassed and can’t raise my face anymore. Looking at me like that, Puriel opened her mouth.

“… why do you think it’s no good?”

A slightly stiff voice turned me back. Your spine trembles. When you think that someone might be angry, your body becomes reflexive and tense. She opens her mouth as she clenches her trembling fingertips.

“…… I can’t give instructions to everyone with the same confidence as Van, and I can’t decide what to do if I don’t listen to someone’s opinions.”

Revealing her feelings, Puriel squinted her shoulders and let out a sigh. And open your mouth.

I’ll tell you when I’m ready to be punished.

Yes, yes.

I get angry, and my body gets harder. I raised my face unconsciously, and Puriel and I met each other. But Puriel looked at us with a smile on her face.

“I honestly think that Master Alte is good enough. Rather, I don’t know why I’m not so confident. When I was Alte-sama’s age, I wasn’t that solid.”

“… that’s not true…”

Even though you affirmed it, there is an inadvertent word of denial. I wonder if you comforted me, but why did you deny it? Thinking that, Puriel shook her head to the left and right.

“Look around you. This is true, for example, for Ort and Kusara, but they are over thirty years old. It’s like a child, isn’t it?”

“That’s right… ah”

I unexpectedly agreed to Puriel laughing. When I noticed it, I saw Pullriel laughing with her big mouth open.

“Maybe Alte-sama was surrounded by adults.” There are so many good people who are very good and good leaders… but they can’t do anything right from the start. I think we’re all going through a lot of hard work and setbacks. ”

“Oh, is that so?” “…. Master Van……”

As she asked, Pullriel waved her hand in front of her face.

“Let’s leave Master Van alone.” Come on, remember Master Dee and Master Espada. I was of the same age, but I was probably experiencing quite a bit of battle. Panamera, too, has been through quite a harsh situation many times. ”

“… I see. Everyone is always confident and calm. Will I be able to be like that, too?”

Asked again, Puriel nodded vigorously.

Absolutely.

I felt like my chest was getting lighter when I said that. Maybe someday I’ll grow up and help Master Van. That may be an overstatement, but it may help a little.

I thought so, and when I raised my face, I heard a voice from outside.

Alte-sama! Van-sama is here to pick you up!

The moment I heard Lord Van’s name, I realized that my heart was beating hard. And it moved like it wasn’t my body. Raise the carriage door and look outside to see a tall figure in the back of the town. The narrow figure was Espada, and the wide figure was Dee.

And in the middle of it was the figure of Van-sama with his eyes rounded. After blinking his eyes twice or three times, Master Van smiles gently as he looks at us.

Shortly after, I jumped out of the carriage and ran towards Lord Van.

I don’t remember much, but I heard later that I cried out loudly as I was looking at Master Van.

After all, being an adult woman like Puriel might be a distant goal.
