After that, the seven-day voyage went smoothly.

There were some surprise attacks by pirates aside from the sissy's gang en route, but Ron-sama and Sylphy-sama fought them off.

And today, we will finally land in Hinoshima. I was standing on the main deck waiting to see the ship enter the port with my own eyes.

"Wow. So that's Hinoshima."

Before my eyes lay an exotic scene that blew me away.

Different from the Kingdom of Findalia, the buildings were crowded together, and in the center stood a majestic tower-like structure.

"Kikuno-sama, what is that exceptionally tall tower?"

"In our country, it is not a tower, but a tower of the heavens. The tower symbolizes his Lordship."

"So, the Lord resides in that tower?

"No, not at all. The Lord and his family live in a separate place. The tower serves as a storehouse."

Because of its far-reaching view, the tower can be used as a military facility in times of emergency, but in times of peace, it functions only as a symbol of power.

"Oh my? Fluffy-kun is not here. He is usually with Rio."

"We have to get ready to disembark, so I've asked Leon to go to the pet exit."

Leon resisted until the end, saying he would disembark with me. ......

"If the number of animals on board do not match the number of animals on board at the time of departure, my ability to manage them will be questioned," quipped Kikuno-sama.

Arriving in Hinoshima, we found that several horses had been prepared for us.

We were told that we would be traveling to the Lord's mansion by horseback.

"I am terribly sorry about this, honored guests, but there are no horse-drawn carriages in our country. Our culture is not as advanced as the Kingdom of Findalia. I assume the two of you are familiar with horse riding."

Horseback riding is an aristocratic pursuit, so of course, I can do it.

During Kikuno-sama's stay at our house, we had gone on long rides together, so she remembered that Chris and I could ride.

"I've prepared a palanquin for you in case you'd like to ride, but it's not very comfortable."

I turned to look in the direction Kikuno-sama had pointed and saw a vehicle with a thick pole threaded through an ornate box.

"How does it work?"

"It is carried by several people. In short, it's human-powered."

Near the palanquin stood a group of muscular young men. They must be the ones to carry it.

"That sounds interesting. I want to ride in it!"

Chris was looking at the palanquin with sparkling eyes.

"All right. What do you want to do, Yurie?"

"I will go on horseback."

I want to see the streets of Hinoshima.

"Yurie, Chris, our mission ends here, so we must bid farewell."

Sylphy-sama and Ron-sama came to bid us farewell.

"Ron-sama, Sylphy-sama, it's been a pleasure to be with you even if it's only for a short time. Take care on the way."

"Umu. I enjoyed it too. That's right. Yurie, I'll give this to you."

Sylphy-sama gave me a pendant. On the tip was a whistle.

"What is this?"

"It's called a dragon whistle. It's a whistle that only Ron and I can hear. If you encounter any trouble, blow it. We will be there in a heartbeat."

An item that allows you to call the world's most powerful dragon tribe at any time. This is a rare item.

"Thank you for such a valuable item, Sylphy-sama."

I hugged Sylphy-sama and shook hands with Ron-sama, and they left.

"Well then, let us go as well."

As I rode towards the Lord's mansion, I surveyed the streets.

I could see the occasional passerby looking back at me, no doubt because I was wearing outfits different from what they were used to seeing.

Chris and Tojurou-san rode in a palanquin, and Kikuno-sama was riding alongside me as my escort.

"There aren't many tall buildings except the main towers, I take it?"

"Yes, that's right. Most of them are one or two-story buildings."

Leon, who is riding with me in cat form, hasn't opened his mouth since earlier. I couldn't even get through to him.

"Leon, don't be so sullen. I can't help it."

He didn't like the fact that he was being treated like a pet. I can't help it, can I? He was shaped like a cat.

"Hmph! Now I reek of cats and dogs again."

I put my nose to Leon's fur and sniffed him, but all I could smell was a nice scent of sunshine.

"There is an open-air bath in the Lord's Palace."

"What? There's an open-air bath?"

Leon hummed as he jumped onto the head of the horse and shook his fluffy tail.

"I can see you're in a better mood."

"What a lively cat, he is."

Kikuno-sama and I looked at each other and smiled.

For the record, Leon is using magic, so only we can hear what he is saying. The people around us only think that the cat is mewing.

—-- TL: Lol, Leon’s being such a tsundere. Soo cute~! Anyway, we’ve finally reached Hinoshima~ Hope you enjoyed and happy reading!!
