Kage no Eiyuu no Nichijou-tan - 75 41 Stories

A few days have passed since the day I decided to take Mize out.

“Somehow, you’ve escaped the king’s capital.”

I lay my back on the carriage carrier in front of me, and I squeal small.

There were only two Mize and me on the carriage carrier. The walls of Wangdu, visible from the gap of the front, walk away little by little with the sound of the horse’s feet.

“This is going to calm you down a little bit.”

Mize sitting across the street smiles.

I’ve certainly been busy the last few days. To scratch the bureau’s surveillance and get out of the Wang capital, I honed my spirit down a lot. I’m the artist who was able to act in advance of their movements because I was the one who worked for years as a soldier in the institution.

But the bureau’s surveillance network will also calm down somewhat if it leaves the Wang capital.

It’s a battle against time from here on out. We have to get out of here faster than they can predict where we’re going and act.

“Sir, you can go to Port Town, right?

From across the front, your man asks.

“Oh. A little farther, please”

“I’m getting paid for that, so it’s okay.”

I am relieved to hear the words of your Lord.

This man was a merchant who found him as soon as he left the walls of the king’s capital. The only way to get around it was to secure it outside because it would be easy to get to your feet if you arranged a carriage in Wang Du… apparently you pulled a hit. I won’t be bothered by it, I’m going to reach my destination.

“Mize… let me just confirm one last time, but you don’t have to go back to the Arkedia kingdom, do you?

“… Yes”

Mize, sitting in front of her, nodded small.

“My father only saw me as a tool to prosper the royal family from the beginning. My mother is like selling me to a father like that for money craving. I have no attachment to either. … there is no place for me in that country”

Mize has the strange power of “The Way of Wisdom”.

Until now, its power has been in a semi-awakening state, with one end of its ability manifesting itself in the form of a pre-existing sense of vision, but it seems that its power has stabilized a little bit here recently. By the Way of Wisdom, Mize is consolidating her thinking towards her parents and the Arkedian kingdom.

“If you have any remainder of your heart… you couldn’t say goodbye to Elysia or Gran.”

Mize said in a slightly depressed manner.

“Don’t worry. Before I left, I sent you two a letter describing the circumstances.”

Letters were kept in the mailboxes of the men’s and women’s dorms, respectively.

The letter should be in the hands of both of us by now.

“Then you have nothing more to remember.”

Mize says.

I’m sure that’s not true. It’s a word to convince yourself.

– We may never see Elicia or Gran again.

That’s what I was prepared to do by the time I left King’s Capital.

Neither I, who defied the Bureau, nor Mize, whose life was targeted by my real father and king of a nation, have a place in that country.

Still, we just have to move on.

To live. – To grab freedom.

“The plan is to use the ship after we get to the harbor, right?

“I’m going to. Asylum abroad is quick to escape the bureau”

It is impossible to keep hiding a place with the Royal Defense Intelligence Agency against them.

Then, even if they know where you are, they have no choice but to put themselves in an environment where they will not be served.

I thought so. I decided to head east from Wangdu to the port town…

“… have you been hit first”

What we saw when we arrived in Port Town was the city surrounded by a more vibrant atmosphere than usual.

“Mr. Tweet. This looks like a newspaper that was handed out two days ago.”

Mize, disguised with a coat I bought from a merchant, comes back to me.

She said she was going to stroll around the city lightly, and what she had gotten was a newspaper that had been thrown away.

“Is it possible that the murderer has smuggled?… that’s why security is tighter than usual.”

Smuggling is a lie.

The truth is a strict precaution to keep me and Mize from missing out on other countries.

“You can’t. We have no choice but to strike another ship than it has been seized.”

The examination is also more rigorous than usual. You can’t delude this into boulders.

“But when I say something else…”

“… Let’s head to the Republic”

Looking at the sights of the harbor, I say.

“We head to the Republic of Carnabun, west of the Kingdom of Terraria. On the road, you will be approaching the border with the Kingdom of Arkedia, but you will not be able to stomach on your back”

“… right. It’s going to be hard for both of us to cross the mountains, even if we go around from the south.”

The eastern port town had already been seized. If this is handy, the northerners must also be held back.

The Kingdom of Saint Arkedia is in a northwesterly position from the Kingdom of Terraria. The Republic of Karnabun is to the west. As we head west, we will be approaching the Kingdom of Arkedia, but it is more inevitable than unavailable by sea. The southern part of the kingdom of Terraria is followed by a long mountain range, even if it turns from the south.

On the road, it seems that the man who got his cooperation has a job at the port town, and now he’s broken up. After all the work, we can work together again, but we can’t stay long if security is so tight. We should leave as soon as possible…. Ning Lo, there is a danger that your man will confess to the guards about us.

Let’s start moving now.

Yes, just before I tried to tell Mize…

“… you’re surrounded”

Stop your legs and lean your nerves toward your vision and hearing.

There was definitely an assassin lurking nearby. The “Red Dragon’s Fang” that I have defeated so far is not the same way to erase the signs. He must be from the Bureau.

“Mize, I’m sorry…”

Hide somewhere. That’s what I tried to say, but I’ll stop.

I forgot about it in my usual habits. I don’t have to hide anything from her anymore.

“… stay here for a while”

“Yes.”

You guessed the situation, Mize nodded, staring at my face with unshakeable eyes.

I feel strong trust. I have a sense of purpose that I have to respond to it.

“Come out.”

To be brief, several assassins emerged from the shadows of the trees.

It wraps around its black coat with the function of miniaturization. Exactly what I have. I mean, they’re people in a similar position to me – but I don’t care at the earliest. I already have my priorities within me.

Protect Mize.

At least not the routine I seek before I abandon her.

“28. Our purpose is only to be the woman there.”

One of the assassins has spoken to me about whether he intends to start negotiations.

“As long as you give her to me, I won’t put my hands on you. I’ll be punished when I get back to the country…”

No way, it was just a surrender recommendation.

I laugh unintentionally at being spoken of at this time.

“Over this period, is the Bureau still going to use me?”

“What?”

“Go home and tell your superior officer. All we ask is for Mize’s safety. If that’s what you can’t drink – there’s no room for reconciliation.”

It was almost at the same time that the assassin set up and I set up.

Even they didn’t think we were going to surrender. Desk crews who have never been on the scene, such as recommending surrender to hostile men, are likely to think about it. It is always the soldiers at the end of the battle in the field that that alarm takes their lives.

I was a soldier on the end, too.

I can see how they were alert and willing to move, as they would take it.

“Guh!?

It’s troublesome to let them get away with it, so first defeat the assassin who was furthest away with the Demon Bullet.

If you had planned to make a surrender recommendation from the beginning, you would have shown up from them if the siege had been completely completed. But failure to do so means there are still holes in the siege.

Behind it has not been taken.

Act with a stare in the enemy’s lurking position.

“Be careful! The opponent is the ace of the former institution.”

In an instant, he packs the distance with “Ligament” and knocks down the man who was trying to encourage vigilance.

“Why don’t you worry about yourself more than people?”

A man with a palm bottom on his belly collapses from his knee.

He then immediately set his aim on the other two who were beside him.

“Hey, keep your distance!

“Once here, attitude. – Huh!?

Release the Demon Bullet to each of the two retreating assassins.

Assassins who are late in responding and now try to fight back. Kill the attack with the blade of Materialization.

There are six assassins. Five of them died.

The latter one dares to keep him alive, but he is losing his mind. As a messenger, I’m going to ask him to tell the Bureau that we’re not going to respond to the negotiations.

“It’s a hassle to have a chaser come. Let’s get out of here early.”

When I said that and turned to Mize, she had a strange face.

“… that’s what you mean about Mr. Tweet”

Since they told me, I’ve noticed.

Even though she is a royal daughter, she is also a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. Such a bloody sight, I shouldn’t have made it look cheap.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have shown people this stuff.”

“No, it’s okay”

Without distracting himself from the falling corpse, Mize said.

“What have you sacrificed to live freely? I have a duty to see it through.”

“… right”

At a time like this, I think Mize is a really strong person.

Just don’t let that strength crush you…… you have to look carefully.
