36 [29] Escort request.txt (1/2)
'I'm so sorry! My guards attacked me too quickly.
The one who is uttering the words of apology as if to worship is the woman who was called the princess by the female knight (Ristiane).
Thanks to her reprimand and explanation, Ristiane seems to have been convinced, though reluctantly.
''Princess-sama won't bow to you! Originally, it was this man's fault for being so close to the princess!
I'm telling you it's because you helped me, you dumb knight in shining armor!
”Pow!
The princess slaps Listiane's cheek with a snap-action slap.
Ristiane's expression as she was slapped is somewhat happy.
''I don't mind. I didn't mean to help them, you know. I was just following these two because they wanted to help.
'What? You're still a man if you don't intend to help the princess when she's in danger!
I don't care what happens to a stranger. If you really want to help me, you'll put in a request for a job.
You! You are forgiven.
”Passiiiiiin!
Once again, the princess's slap strikes Listiane.
Perhaps because it was more forceful than before, beautiful autumn leaves have formed on Listiane's cheeks.
''Yes, yes, shut up for a moment. Now, Virum-san? Now, you said you'd help me if it was a job, right?
Yeah, if it's a job.
'What? How does that princess know Ville's name?
'Oh, come to think of it,'
The two of them were wondering why she knew Virum's name when they were supposed to have never met before.
'Let me start by introducing myself. I'm Lumeria-Humanio. I'm the third princess of the Humanion Kingdom. I have taken the liberty of looking up Vilm-san. However, you seem to be a celebrity in this town, so I got the information even though I didn't tell you.
Even though she says it's selfishly, I can't sense any ill will on her face.
In fact, she is proudly stretching her chest.
It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.
That's usually the case with Virum, isn't it?
I don't blame you for investigating me or what you do with me, and I'm not interested in that. But if I'm disadvantaged because of it, I won't condone it. You must remember that.
You! If you've been quiet for a while now, what a way to talk to the princess! Get up there! This time you are going to slay me.
'I told you to be quiet, you dumb knight. Is your head so bad that you can't even remember my commands? Then say so. I'll cut off your head right here and now.
”Even a Buddha's face is said to be three times over,” but Lumelia retracted her joking expression from earlier and stared at Ristiane with a gaze that could shoot the creature to death.
Perhaps she sensed that it was a final warning.
Reacting to the cold-hearted voice and words, Ristiane instantly straightens her posture and doesn't move slightly like a stone statue.
''Totally.... So, Mr. Virum. I'd like to ask you for an escort to the Humane Kingdom. Also, I need you to meet with my father and king, Zeldair-Humanio.
