Chapter 180 Escort?
Part 2
The guards escorting the Emperor in the Imperial Capital were perfect. With him sitting in the Castle, it is quite difficult to kill Radrick Atrum Zebrudia, as he is a highly skilled swordsman.
If it is outside where his escorts are fewer, it would be a golden occasion for the man who can use an uncommon power of summoning Dragons.
This plan wasn’t urgent. He just thought that it would be a blessing if he could reduce Zebrudia’s power even a little.
However, it was just too creepy. The situation was perfectly going in the man’s favor. It was like they were asking him to kill him.
………… What are you thinking, ?Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)?.
Until now, he had performed various difficult missions. Some missions have failed, and some have nearly gotten him killed.
However, he hasn’t been this confused in a long time.
The man held his head and muttered quietly to himself to keep his composure.
Everything is as usual. Just think about the objectives and faithfully carry out the mission as usual.

“Yowaningen, what are you thinking, desu! I’m a Member of the same Clan as you, so we should discuss things properly, desu!” (Kruz)
“Well, well, calm down.” (Cry)
“More-over……! Why are you riding on my horse again, desu! Get off, desu!” (Kruz)
“Calm, calm.” (Cry)
One night after the Dragon attack, we left the city.
Fortunately, the Conference wasn’t canceled. If I hadn’t been a Level 8 and didn’t have a say in the matter, the Conference would have been canceled, so I would say that I was barely safe. I guess social power can be useful sometimes.
Maybe because they were wary of their surroundings, the carriage was moving a little slower than yesterday.
I clung to the back of Kruz and we were at the back of the escort.
It is such a beautiful day that it is hard to believe that something like that happened yesterday. The horses too seemed to be enjoying themselves as they *pakapaka* paced around.
It was very comfortable. Sytry, this is what I am talking about.
By the way, Tino once said something about white crows, but maybe that was what she meant…… I will have to remonstrate her next time.
The journey went smoothly.? In the first place, there are not many fools who would attack the Emperor.
Even if there were ruffians, they would understand how reckless their action would be when they see Term.
Today, I placed Term at the front line.
I had expected that his abilities were quite high, but Term was stronger than I had expected. To be able to overwhelm a swarm of Chilldra to that extent, he might even be stronger than Lucia.
No matter what shows up, this escort request will be safe with ?Still Water (Shisui)?. Next time, I will have to thank ?Abyssal Fire of Destruction (Shin En Kametsu)?.
“To begin with, Chilldra’s weakness wasn’t fire, desu! Yowaningen, are you taking me for an idiot, desu!” (Kruz)
“Calm, calm……” (Cry)
“Tsk…… Why are you so unmotivated, Yowaningen, desu! In my case, I’ve always been??” (Kruz)
Un, un, that’s right.
With Kruz’s sermon as my BGM, I make a big yawn.
I became completely relaxed thanks to Term’s display of power yesterday.
There is nothing easier than working on an escort request with a strong escort. I wonder if it is okay to work like this and still get such a wonderful carpet.
Today too, the carpet was *fuwafuwa* flying behind the horse. It really is docile when no one is riding it.
I turned around while feeling relaxed as I firmly grabbed Kruz’s stomach.
And then I froze up.
The carpet that should have been flying behind me a moment ago was??Gone. As far as I could see, it was nowhere to be found.
I hurriedly hugged Kruz’s stomach tightly.
“Kru…… Kruz, stoppp! Just stop!” (Cry)
“Hyaaa…… Wha… What happened Yowaningen!” (Kruz)
Kruz hurriedly stopped her horse in a panic.
I struggled to jump off the horse and squinted my eyes.
The carpet I finally obtained was… Gone! It’s nowhere to be found! I haven’t even been able to properly ride it yet!
The carpet is a Relic. No matter how rebellious it was, it won’t run away from me. That’s what Relics are.
Which means, there is only one possibility.
I am sure…… It ran out of charge.
I had my Barrier Rings charged, but everything was so messed up that I forgot to have my carpet charged.
The carriage kept moving forward, leaving us behind. Maybe because they were noblemen, they didn’t seem to notice that we had stopped.
A little bit…… If it is just a little bit, the escort won’t have any problem if we went missing for a little bit. I donn’t even count as fighting strength too, and Term, the strongest was with them too.
I made an immediate decision.
“Kruz, we are going back.” (Cry)
“!? Haaah? What are you talking about, desu! What are you going to do about the escort, desu!” (Kruz)
We are going to look for the carpet! It is a very important carpet! It hadn’t been that long since I had last checked, so it couldn’t have fallen that far behind.
I’m sure I will find it. I’ll absolutely find it! It’s alright, we’ll find it really quick and be right back! The carriage was going slowly today, so we can catch up with them later.
If I lose my carpet, doesn’t that mean that there was no point in accepting this escort!
Kruz stared in amazement when I appealed to her with unprecedented desperation.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
Haha Cry leaving the escort can only end up badly for the escort!
But I sure hope he does get his carpet back.
Tchao à plus!
