Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 312

It may be because it was a business that was carried out on the verge of being blown away due to treason, but Raviel’s reaction was so immediate that one could tell even if there were only guards standing in the village.

How do you know? In just one night, in the clear sky like a lie, the movement of flying dragons flying in all directions could be seen even from the village watchtower. I heard that they fly at a normal altitude when they need to send an emergency report, but they fly at a higher altitude than usual to eliminate the possibility of conflict with other flying dragons, but it was the first time I’ve actually seen it even after living in the capital for about two years.

“Hmm, isn’t it? Was it simply that I was looking at the sky a little less?”

In retrospect, that might seem right. Even in my previous life, when I had no time to spare, I lived for months without ever raising my head above a two-story building. It’s such an open world that I’m not particularly aware of it, but it’s also true that being attacked from the air can’t be completely ruled out, so I’ll have to consciously look at the sky.

Indulging in such feelings, I was sitting leisurely on the watchtower, when I heard Abnam calling me from below.

“Eldmia-sama! The mercenary who went to Raviel is back!”

When I called him the one with the amputated arm, he carefully gave me his name. It was hard to call him, but he definitely evolved into a quick-witted person.

“alone?”

“No! I came with the knight! Manager Ciel told me to come for a while because the representatives will gather at the Temple of the Gods!”

It was a very positive story that someone came together, but the target was unexpected. There must be only three knights who can reside in the gateway city, but you picked and sent one from there? Does it come out loud?

“Apart from the meeting, knight? How old are you?”

“Uh… did you look younger?”

What is it, why is the back questionable?

After an unexpected visitor, I looked at Abnam suspiciously because it was an unexpected reaction, but he just hesitated and came down from the surveillance with the conviction that it was wrong to get a proper answer.

“Stand on duty for me for a while. I’ll be back.”

“Yes! Take it easy!”

I don’t feel comfortable because I feel like I’m hitting something while I’m working, but I couldn’t help but go because I took the representative position of the adventurers by force, so when I came back later, I made a promise to buy a bottle of alcohol from the kitchen and give it to you. .

It was natural that the orcs hadn’t arrived during the night, but it was very fresh that the knight visited on behalf of Raviel so early in the morning despite the belated report. As much as I thought it could be the story of the lack of adventurers in Raviel right now, I wondered what the hell was causing the shortage of workers.

Did the guild leader eat a lot more than I thought? If that’s the case, Englem and the gateway city adventurer’s guild all say that the screws are missing. It seems that I need to take time later to catch Badna and ask what kind of atmosphere it is.

“Ah, welcome! Everyone is waiting inside!”

The distance from the watchtower was not that far, so arrival was instantaneous. As I went inside after lightly greeting Jacob, who was on duty as usual today, the eyes of the people inside naturally focused on me. My gaze turned to the knight in gleaming armor, and I had a feeling I could understand why Abnam reacted halfway to a question about his age.

No matter how many times you look at the blond young man with a sad look, who looks fine on the outside, he only looks like an early 20-year-old.

In other words, unless you are a genius, you are a newly appointed rank knight. In comparison, the armor he is wearing literally shines, and the sword he wears around his waist appeals to the fact that it is not cheap, but rather expensive through appropriate decorations and gold leaf.

These are equipment that an ordinary knight who starts without any support can never dream of.

“Sir Visquente, this is Eldmia Ega, a class adventurer representing the opinions of adventurers. Eldmia?

Fortunately, Ciel stepped in first and saved me the trouble I had to spend trying to figure out his identity. By the way, I thought that Raviel was a gateway city that could only be swayed by anything, but it didn’t seem to be the case. If I was that age, I would definitely be the successor.

It was a too calm reaction to see that it was simply used as a throwaway card to prove loyalty to the royal family, so it must be that he is confident in his skills or intends to give him an achievement by receiving stable support no matter what means and methods are used.

“I am Eldmia Ega, an enemy-class adventurer. I was also an eyewitness who went out on reconnaissance and confirmed the Orc settlement.”

As we greeted each other with a simple bow, the corners of Visquente’s mouth, which seemed unlikely to show a smile, naturally went up.

“As an eyewitness is a manager, it’s nice that you don’t have to do anything cumbersome. Raviel didn’t take the story of the orc army appearing lightly and started mobilizing everything she could. If your observations were accurate, there will be a great reward later. .”

He is a smart friend who maintains his position as a person of power, uses honorific titles, appropriately covers up the actions they have taken, shows trust, and even threatens them at the same time. I reciprocated with a polite smile because it smelled like a not-so-bad talent.

“If the village’s safety is secured, it will be entirely thanks to Raviel’s quick and wise response. The reputation of Lord Visquente, who will lead this subjugation, will also resonate throughout the capital.”

Now that you’re sitting as a conductor, the moment you act like a dick, you’re also on the dog side, so behave well.

Visquente, who gave off the smell of a smart talent, immediately understood my words and nodded and smiled. Smile?

“I see. Rumors are usually unbelievable, but I can feel the credibility of Lord Ega.”

It’s my rumor. I don’t know what it is like among commoners, but it must have spread among the nobles, so it’s nothing strange to know about it, but if you understand what I’m saying, it’s normal to frown for being arrogant.

As long as you feel better when you swear at me, if you’re a libido, I don’t want to get close to you, from my point of view, who is a natural swear person.

“I don’t know what rumors you’ve heard, but I’m not in a position to be called Sir.”

“Even if one refuses power and position, one cannot hide one’s feat and dignity. Even more so, he directly condemns traitors and establishes the authority of the royal family and the laws of the country, so it can be said that he is a role model for all people. I never expected to see him in this form. I didn’t know it, but it’s an honor to see Levien’s guillotine.”

okay show.

It was not only a completely unexpected polite response, but also one of the few truly aristocratic responses.

Did the lord of Raviel hit the lottery when it came to farming his children, even though his subordinates had a bad luck? Even Visquente stood up and shook my hand, not paying attention to the gazes of Ciel and Carl Goulds. It’s not polite to not accept it again, so I awkwardly held out my hand, and a polite handshake followed without any power struggle.

“Thanks to you, I was able to recognize the seeds of treachery that had been hiding in the city and pull them out, albeit belatedly. I would be grateful for that alone, but since you helped Raviel again like this, I will make sure to live up to it.”

I forced myself to smile, barely suppressing the feeling that my face would go into convulsions because of that sympathetic reaction, and Carl Goose and Ciel, who began to look at us with very strange eyes, decided to adjust the atmosphere and maintain silence. I reacted as if I had decided.

Visquente, who still politely offered me a seat, continued the conversation in a very dignified manner.

“Unfortunately, however, Raviel currently has no troops available to send outside. In order not to mislead the royal family, we hastily reduced the number of private soldiers except for the city guards. Instead, we decided to open the family safe, but this urgent Under the circumstances, there is a time that cannot be bought with money, so it is unlikely that satisfactory reinforcements will come right away.”

That was enough to understand and expected, so there was no inspiration. Rather, it is more surprising that an aristocrat whom he has never seen before reacts so well and favorably.

I didn’t cut the troops under my command, and it’s not like I’m dating you, so you’re really being this kind? Isn’t it actually a high level psychological warfare?

After a while, while the thousand and one Eldmia began to have a heated discussion over Visquente’s intentions, Carl Guls naturally accepted the story.

“He expressed his intention to hire additional troops for our mercenary corps before you arrived, but there are no guys who can be called up right away. I wondered if there was a limit to what I could receive.”

Adventurers would surely come running excitedly if they sprinkled money, but the enlisted soldiers of nobles are ambiguous. This is because, in fact, those in the capital must obtain permission from the royal family when moving enlisted soldiers outside.

The problem is that even if it is true that this situation is an anomaly, it is not such a rare anomaly. I don’t know if there was a report that the gate was suspicious, or if the royal family had that possibility in mind from the beginning.

There are obviously no nobles ready to go out at any time for an agenda that is uncertain whether or not to approve it, so it will take a day for them to arrive here even after permission is given.

The minimum schedule was two days, but the attack of the orcs was two days later at the earliest.

“The key is how comfortable the royal family is, but the orcs can attack tomorrow at the earliest. From my point of view, I think it’s worth doing.”

There was no need to explain every detail of the situation in front of civilians and mercenaries.

“But… isn’t it dangerous if even the adventurers don’t arrive on time?”

“That’s true, but don’t worry about that.”

In response to Ciel’s question, Visquente answered with a polite yet confident smile. When we expressed our curiosity with only our eyes at the very confident reaction, which made us wonder if it was renting a carriage or moving, Visquente shrugged his shoulders and replied.

“Didn’t I tell you that we decided to open the safe? Adventurers will come by flying dragons. We have already received royal permission to mobilize Raviel and all the flying dragon pilots in the capital.”

And within me, the evaluation of Raviel’s lord and Visquente began to rise vertically.

I don’t know anything else, but I’m going to do a very good joke in front of the royal family.
