Chapter 90
If you were to look over the crowded buildings clattered around the area, you could see the blue hue stretching out the morning skies .
We were stopping by the royal capital of Urza .
The name of the royal capital is Monroy .
It was a castle town that youâd really find in an otherworld fantasy movie .
This is the first megacity Iâve seen in this world .
At Alion, I could only see the scenery in that room .
Thatâs because I got a trip from the castle straight towards the Disposal Ruins...
[Pyuu~âª]
[Make sure to hide yourself . ]
[Pii~ . ]
Pigimaru is hidden under my robe as usual .
After travelling for a few days, we arrived here in Monroy .
There were no signs of any pursuers yet .
We have stopped by three villages so far .
Along the way, Iâve heard several rumors from the travelers and mercenaries .
The death of the Five Dragon Warriors .
The missing Seras Ashrain .
These two were the only decent things Iâve heard .
However, it was just that .
It is still unclear how every country reacted and the movement Bakuos has chosen in response .
Here in the royal capital, I may be able to get different information .
[............... . ]
I look back at the royal capitalâs front gate .
Iâve passed through this gate easily .
I didnât feel like they were properly checking people .
There were no signs that theyâre in a frenzy in their search for Seras .
The Knights of another country that has been destroyed .
Is Urza not interested at all in searching for the criminals?
Or was it that my camouflage was surprisingly successful?
[Unexpectedly, Urza may have been relieved that the dangerous knights of the neighboring country have disappeared in this place . ]
[Thatâs quite possible . ]
Walking behind me, Seras said .
Currently, she should have changed the appearance of her face .
The name that sheâs using is her pseudonym âMisraâ .
[It is said that Urzaâs Magic Knights were a little less powerful compared to the main forces of the other countries . Of course, they would be defeated if they were to fight against the Black Dragon Knights . ]
[So, theyâve only survived thanks to the mediation of the goddess huh?]
[I donât think thatâs really just the case . There is a man called âDragonslayerâ in Urza . By employing him apart from the Knights, this shows how Urza recognizes his power . He would need to display his power even without joining a war after all . ]
So, thatâs the guy thatâs holding them back huh...
[However, that Dragonslayer isnât even the one who exterminated the Five Dragon Warriors . ]
[Although he was called the Dragonslayer, I guess he couldnât really beat Civit . He has been hiding beneath Civitâs shadow, but he was said to be as capable as the other Five Dragon Warriors... Well, the Dragonslayer was rumored to be quite slothful by nature . Thatâs why, there werenât any conflict with the Five Dragon Warriors . ]
I wonder if he just thought fighting with them is just a bother .
Now then...
[How about we find an inn for now?]
We would stay here in Monroy for a day .
We need to prepare to enter the Demon Zone .
I look towards my bag .
The âEncyclopedia on the Forbidden Artsâ is still inside the bag .
The book also describes various recipes for medicines .
The ingredients for these medicines may be obtained from the Demon Zone .
So, I need to prepare the tools I would need for production .
So that I could use them even when Iâm inside the Demon Zone .
This is one of our goals .
Weâre in the royal capital afterall .
There must have been some tools here that werenât available in MIlls .
[The inn here looks good . ]
It has quite a fairly cheap accommodation .
Before entering, I asked towards Seras .
[Weâre going to get separate rooms, right?]
The royal capital is crowded with people .
Mills was just a small city .
Itâs so small that the gatekeeper could even remember the face of the people who walked past their gates .
The number of people that would travel towards that place also werenât large .
So, the people walking around places like that would be really noticeable .
Thatâs also the reason why weâve been avoiding walking as a âsuspicious duoâ for the past few days .
However, we are in the royal city thatâs brimming with people .
A lot of strangers were visiting this place .
Currently, Seras have changed the appearance of her face and clothes .
There arenât any signs where Urza is seriously investigating this matter . to
The further away we are from Mills, the lesser the vigilance we would need to maintain .
It doesnât matter if we were act together hereafter .
Thatâs why I had decided so .
However, Seras is a woman .
Sharing the same room with a man...
As expected, our rooms should still be separate .
I have that much of a consideration .
And, thatâs what I was thinking butâ
[It would just be a waste of travelling expenses, and I think it would be wiser to not waste it on having separate rooms . Well, thatâs unless Milord hates it that much...]
[Iâm still a man, you know . ]
Seras looked pretty astonished .
Then, she put her hand over her mouth .
Her face shows that sheâs thinking about something .
And, Seras cleared her throat .
It seems that she finally understood the meaning of my words .
[I have no problem with it . ]
She doesnât see any problems with it...
Seras places her hand over her chest .
[Weâve already slept together in the same small room at Mills, and I donât think there would be any problem . ]
At that time, I had distracted her with Pigimaru and invoked towards her but...
[...If you donât mind it yourself, then I wouldnât mind it too . ]
[It doesnât really mean I donât mind at all though... Itâs just that Iâm fine if itâs with Milord . ]
Well, my uncle has always been telling me to always try to save up money .
[Well then, letâs go get a single room . Even if you have some complaints later, I wonât be paying attention to any of those words, okay? Is that fine with you?]
[Y- Yes . ]
Seras follows me into the inn with a trot .
If you were together with someone you trusted, as expected your vigilance would be thinner .
Itâs even more so when the other party is the one you vowed your loyalty to .
[.....................]
Itâs kind of unexpected how her vigilance became this thin though .
