220 Episode 220 "The Beginning Meteical Sightseeing Tour and the Promise with" Kairyu Kerukatoru "".txt (1/2)

Two days after the incident with the ”Maohu Deficiency Syndrome” ended, we decided to go on a ”Metekal Sightseeing Tour”.

We decided to go on a ”Metekal Sightseeing Tour”.

I heard that this trip was originally planned by the lord of Ilgafa for himself.

However, he has been unable to leave the town due to ”Maohu deficiency disease”.

The ”Maouketsuken-Deficiency Syndrome” has settled down, but I'm still worried about him, so I can't go on a trip. But I'm worried about what's happening in Metekal. So they want someone they can trust to go in their place.

So Iris took over the planning, and we're all going to go together. ......

'This is our traveling carriage, sir.

”'Oh, oh, oh, oh!'

Ine, Aine and Cutlass cheered.

Iris provided us with a three-horse box carriage.

It was big, but not too ornate, which suited our taste.

It was surprisingly spacious inside. We can travel in comfort in this one.

The horses are Pockle and Pickle, who are always there for us.

And one of the new additions.

For now, I activate my negotiation skill, ”Food Negotiation,” and approach one of the newcomers.

Then I let out a little voice to calm them down.

'I'm Nagi. I'm going with Aine, Iris, and Cutlass, for a total of four. And two others will be added or subtracted, but it's not like they don't weigh anything, so it won't be a burden.

After saying that, I offered the new horse a carrot.

'All the way to the commercial city of Metecal, nice to meet you. If you get tired, feel free to say so.

The chestnut-haired horse looked at me with wide eyes while biting into a carrot.

''This one is polite!

The chestnut-haired mare nibbled on a carrot and then rubbed her head against my chest.

'I'll do my best to be of service to you all during the journey!

Thank you. So, your name's Peckle. Nice to meet you. Don't take it easy on Pickle and Pockle.

”'I'm in a rut! I get it!

The three horses shouted in unison.

If we let the horses handle it, there is no need for us to take the reins. They will get us to our destination even if we are asleep.

But if there is no one in the driver's seat, they will look suspicious.

Who wants to sit on the gyoza table?

I want to try it! I'll take care of it!

Leggy appeared with a pop, and Fynn, who appeared softly, raised his hand.

''Sometimes I like to have a special seat to watch the scenery.

I wish I could do something nice for you.

All right. Good luck with that. Leggy, Fynn.

”Yes!

So it's Reggie and Fynn who will be taking the reins of the horses (not controlling them).

Me, Aine, Iris and Cutlass will be in the carriage.

'Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.'

What's up, Aine?

”Lord Death is saying, 'If it's me and Chariot, I can travel between the towns at super speed, that I can do.

Well, that's a little too obvious, so tell them to take a break.

Okay, nana.

If a jet-black armored horse blasted by in broad daylight with a chariot in tow, it would be too obvious.

...... It's cool though.

............ It would be cool, though.

If it's .................. night, it's ...... okay.

...... Let's get going then, guys!

””Yes!”

Please. Pockle, pickle, peckle.

”'Liucai!

It's time to go to work!

And slowly the carriage began to move forward.

”I never thought I'd be going on a luxury trip.

The carriage left the town's gates and was moving leisurely along the city streets.

The carriage, which Iris had arranged for us, hardly swayed.

That's because the suspension is good and the three horses (Pockle, Pickle and Peckle) are walking to keep it from swaying.

The interior of the car is spacious and can seat six people comfortably.

If I were to compare it to a bullet train, it would be like turning the three seats around and facing each other.

The four of us in the carriage are me, Aine, Iris and Cutlass.

Fynn and Reggie are on the gojodai, admiring the view. They don't usually get out in the open, so everything they see seems unusual to them.

Their joyful voices can even be heard inside the carriage.

But what about ”You're going to do a bad thing - leave it to me”.

...... I feel like Leggy and Fynn's evil plotting is pretty dangerous.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of where you're going to meet up with Rita and Leticia when you get to Metekal. We have a meeting point in mind. We'll visit a toolmaker Leticia knows and we'll be able to find out where they are.

The connection between Rita and True Consciousness Sharing Mind Linkage True has already been severed.

It's because we connected too much for the sake of exploring the Ancient Elf Ruins, and the distance between Rita and me was too great.

Honestly, we've never been this far apart before.

I'm worried .......

I'm sure Rita and Letitia will be fine, though.

'We'll have to meet up with Rita and the others to explore the town.

'What about the 'martial arts tournament'?　Nah-kun.

I'd like to see what I can find out about that one before I investigate.

If possible, I'd like to find out about the ”Alchemist” and ”Count Gervis” behind this.

What do they have in mind?

Do you have any intentions of meddling in the port city of Ilgafa again or not?

For now, I bought some anti-potion skills.

There was a skill shop in the port city of Ilgafa that had a skill for creating potions.

It's for beginners.

I also bought some cheap skills for when the need arose.

I think I can handle most things with it.

...... Before you do that, Iris would like to talk to your brother.

Suddenly, Iris looked at me.

'There's an important issue at the party right now.

”Does it matter?

''Yes. Before leaving, Iris went to the 'Sea Dragon Sanctuary' to report on the incident to the 'Sea Dragon Kerkator'. About that: ......

Aine was my escort to the Holy Land.

That's what I thought.

Before we left, Cutlass and I moved to Michelin's Resort Michelin, where the saint gave us a communication golem.

At the villa, there was a communication golem given to us by the saint, and I attached the letter and the potion to it and sent it to the saint's cave.

Of course, I also included an inquiry on how Cecil and Rafilia are doing.

''While big brother was transitioning to the recreation area, Iris made a report about the incident to the 'Sea Dragon Kerkator'. Then...

What did you say about 'Kerkator the Sea Dragon'?

''I thank the brave men of the Sea Dragon for protecting the town. That and .......

Iris looked at Cutlass and then at me and...

Then, for some reason, he turned bright red.

He asked me at ...... what the promise to the 'Dragon Protector' was.

”No way is a promise to the 'dragon protector' .......

'............ is yes. Big brother.

Iris stammered.

Aine looked at Iris and clapped her hands.

I understand. Do you mean that Nah-kun and Cutlass are trying to have a child?

............

Cutlass opened his mouth with a pop.

I forgot about it because of a lot of things.

Me, Cutlass and Kerkator, the Sea Dragon, had made a promise to each other.

That was after we got the 'Holy Sword Dragon Sgoiner'.

We took Cutlass and went to see the sea dragon.

The purpose was for Cutlass, who wanted to become the 'Dragon Protector', to get permission from the 'Sea Dragon Kercator'.

Cutlass was concerned about the royal family's involvement in the killing of 'Earth Dragon Earthgulls'.

That's why I wanted to do something useful for the dragon.

Then we met with the sea dragon and told him about the situation.

The sea dragon understood how Cutlass felt, but he made one condition.

That is, Cutlass must become my - in other words, the family of the ”Hero of the Sea Dragon”.

Specifically, Cutlass will be the mother of the Sea Dragon Hero's child.

In other words, it means that Cutlass and I will have a child, but...

...... There was a lot of stuff going on, so you were put off.

No, no, no. Iris didn't expect to be rushed to ......

Iris looked at me with a bright red face.

'So, but Iris was asked by the Sea Dragon Kelkator. Properly, are the 'Sea Dragon Brave' and the 'Dragon Protector' making an effort to be ...... a child? I'm not sure if the miko is there or not. It must have been soooo embarrassing ......

...... Sorry about that.

'And anyway. I've been nailed. Just as big brother and Lady Cutlass do with ...... and Iris will see to it.

Okay.

When you think about it, it's like me and Cutlass made a promise to God.

I'll be d*mned if I don't make good on it.

”Cutlass.

Yes, sir, of course.

............ eh?

............ Yes.

Me and Cutlass are still sitting in the carriage seat, our eyes locked.

Aine is looking out the window, but her ears are bright red.

It can't be helped that Iris is looking at us ....... Iris is in charge of me and Cutlass as a witness, you know.

I was actually thinking of ...... after I 'engaged' with Cutlass.

Okay.

I'm going to make good on my promise to ...... sea dragons during this journey. How about Cutlass?

I have no objection to ....... I'm boke-wow .......

──── Good luck with that, Cutlass.

Softly, Fynn flew in from the gyoza-dai.

She patted Cutlass's bright red neck and cheek.

'You have made a promise in front of the sea dragon. You must not bother Lady Iris.

Yes, yes. ......

”Being the 'Dragon Protector' is what you wanted, Cutlass.

Yes, I know, sir.

So, yeah.

Shhhh, Fynn patted Cutlass' chest.

Do me a favor so that it will be easier for Arujid to fulfill his promise to the Sea Dragon.

Are you begging me?

We don't have time for this. Come on.

Yes, I am. I'm, uh, I'm with Arujido at ......

”'Though a slave of lowly royal blood,' right?

”Though a slave of disreputable royal blood, ......

”'Every time I think of Arujidono, I confirm that I'm a girl.

Every time I think of Arujidoro, I confirm that I'm a girl... I'm not doing that!

Am I right?

”...... is not every time I think about it,

”Okay, okay. Then go on.

”I want you to make me the mother of a child of Aruji, the hero of the Sea Dragon: ......

I'm afraid I'm missing the part where you're looking at me, Mr. Iris.

I can't do it anymore. ......!

Turning bright red, Cutlass just turned around.

Still, in a trembling voice.

''And anyway, let ...... Arujidono ...... let me fulfill my ...... 'promise to the sea dragon'... ...please.

...... Iris, well, when the time comes, you can ask Shiro-sama to overpower Kerkator, the sea dragon. ......

Iris looked at Cutlass, pissed off, and then

Well, since we're here, I guess we'll just have to see it through and learn from it.

Okay. Okay, so, cutlass ...... that.

I shook Cutlass's hand.

'During this journey, me and Cutlass will fulfill our 'promise to the sea dragon'. Is that okay with you?

'Yes, sir!　Please, please. Arujidono!

Cutlass put his own hand over mine.

He placed it against his own chest.

I'll do my best to be the mother of the child of the brave men of the sea dragon. ...... I will do my best to be the mother of the child of the brave men of the sea dragon!　A certain someone!

...... I'll do my best to do the same.

But I'm not sure it's going to be okay. Cutlass.

I just realized that I'm a girl, so I hope it's not a burden.

As for the ”Ability Rebuild 《Skill Structure》” to reduce the burden, it's confirmed, there's another good way: .......

''That's where I have a suggestion for Aine.

Suddenly, Aine looked at me and declared.

'How about we make this trip feel like a honeymoon for Naku-kun and Cutlass-chan?

Honeymoon?

I'm going to make this journey a 'journey to fulfill the promise to the sea dragon'. I want to make sure that Nah-kun and Cutlass are in that kind of atmosphere. Aine and the others will have to work together. We need to prove that Aine and her friends remember their promises.

'You mean to make this trip a ritual to convince the sea dragon?

''That's right. That way, even if Cutlass-chan couldn't become the 'Mother of the Sea Dragon's Brave Child' on this trip, I think the sea dragon would agree with me.

That's Aine. You have a point.

A ritual like this should convince you.

Okay. You got it.

Thank you. Then this trip will make Natsu and Cutlass feel great!

Mmm, Aine pumped her fist up.

Iris and Fynn follow suit.

Reggie, too, is pumping his fist up in the Gosha-dai.

Cutlass said, ”What?　Huh?　Huh? You look like that.

Let's get ready to go.

The primary purpose of this trip is to meet up with Rita and Letitia.

And also for me and Cutlass to fulfill our promise to the sea dragon.

...... Okay, that's it. Arujidono.

...... Yeah.

...... It's a pleasure to meet you.

Cutlass's hot hand is clasping mine.

Me and Cutlass look at each other with embarrassed faces and nod to each other.

So, our carriage was moving towards Metecal.

'We will be staying here for the night today.

The carriage stopped at the spa town of Rihjelda, between Ilgafa and Metekal.

This is a nostalgic place.

This is the town where we met Iris and I.

Do you want to go to visit your mother's grave?　I'll come with you if you go. Iris.

'Thank you for your concern. Big brother.

Iris gave a small nod and laughed.

But Iris shook her head.

I would like to do that on my way home. Iris has an important mission at the moment.

Okay.

'Because when all is said and done, I'm going to report to my mother's graveside that 'Iris has climbed one flight of adult steps.

Yeah. But keep the details to yourself.

...... because Cutlass is turning bright red.

Iris's mother is also a 'Sea Dragon Priestess', so I know you want to report on the Sea Dragon's mission, but please keep your privacy.

''If it's true, it's about time we were within the scope of the 'True Consciousness Sharing [Mind Linkage True]'.

The distance between us was so great that the connection was naturally lost.

Even after I reactivated my skills, I couldn't communicate with Rita...

We are now ready to reactivate True Consciousness Sharing Mind Linkage True.
