Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 404

The heroes of the reverse who were guarding the front line step on the capital for the first time in many years. To prepare for the war to recover the Marquis of Levien, which was also the kingdom’s shield.

With that fact alone, the capital is creating a festive atmosphere on its own. The reason for this situation was simple, even though only one unit was briefly returning for another operation.

There is room on the frontlines to the extent that troops are taken out separately for important operations. we are not pushed The kingdom does not lose. Rather, he has the energy to feed a proper shot. etc.

Even though extensive propaganda is not being carried out, it is possible to know that it is going in that way even with closed eyes. Even the stories I heard while sitting in a teahouse were like that. Some were even saying that as soon as the Marquis of Levien was regained, it was certain that the kingdom’s army would rush to the capital of the Demons Territory.

Most of the atmosphere was like that, probably because they were living through the winter without any defects in their food, clothing, and shelter. It wasn’t a bad place to pass the time, but neither I nor Cheryl were comfortable listening to such optimistic stories, so I ended up getting up and going out at the start of the parade.

In the end, it was a very wise choice. The road, which apparently seemed secluded, started to boil with people as soon as the trumpet sounded in the distance announcing the return of the troops.

“Will you be able to see this properly?”

“Ummm…”

Sheryl wasn’t short, but she wasn’t tall either, so when several young men gathered to build a wall, she looked slightly embarrassed. It reminded me of the days when I was struggling to get a request from the adventurer’s bulletin board, so I burst out laughing and decided to pick her up and sit on my shoulder when I heard my laughter.

There was a bit more resistance than usual, but it was only for a moment. The eyes of the surroundings were slightly focused on her suddenly rising, but the majestic knights who appeared soon caught all eyes, and we were able to watch their return leisurely.

The procession accompanied by cheers and military bands erupting from all directions was truly spectacular. I heard that they were bringing a troop roughly, but I didn’t know exactly how many troops they were planning to come, but there were quite a few knights riding horses and standing in the lead. Not only people, but even horses wore much thicker than normal armor, which was the average of the equipment worn by armies as well as knights.

It wasn’t as much as the quasi-powered suit knights Esmuer had brought the other day, but after seeing the soldiers wearing something no less than the full plate armor of the knights, I got a sense of what the average equipment on the frontline was like. Even those without an aura are equipped with such equipment and are at a level where they can survive.

At that time, I heard the voice of someone who was completely unexpected next to me.

“Whoa, power inflation is fucking worse than I expected?”

“It’s a crazy fucking surprise!”

I was so startled that I almost dropped Cheryl, so I hurriedly got off my shoulder and carried her into my arms. Then Cheryl, who was as surprised as I was, jumped up like a cat that saw a cucumber, and the other passers-by who were pushed by us laughed out loud.

“Hey, is it because it’s a rare appearance? It’s fun to surprise your little brother. How have you been?”

Siegfried, whom he hadn’t seen in a while, had grown quite tall in just a few months.

◈

The sudden appearance of Siegfried led us to find a suitable tea house again.

Fortunately, people who recognized the warriors of the empire and were frightened did not appear. It was only natural that he hadn’t shown his face in the kingdom a few times yet. Siegfried, who calmly watched the crowds outside while ordering tea to drink, was truly calm, but the problem was that his title was a warrior.

This isn’t enemy camp, so going alone won’t cause any problems, but isn’t it a bit like a human who should be in the empire doing this?

“What are you doing alone in a place like this?”

Thanks to that, I put a lot of effort and refinement into the question, but rather, Siegfried asked back as if he was surprised.

“Huh? Didn’t you hear?

“…Isn’t that a military secret?”

“Is that so? How is it, this is the girl from that family, and the younger brother is the younger brother.”

Siegfried said such amazing words casually, but he spoke in a quiet tone, choosing his own words, to see if he was not thinking at all. And even though it was a tea house, that voice was naturally buried in the voices of people who were in high spirits after watching an army march.

Sheryl, who hadn’t had a long conversation with Siegfried, looked at me and said, ‘Are you really this kind of person?’ and I said, ‘It is indeed so.’ After answering with a look in his eyes, he asked another question.

“How did we find out?”

Actually, this was the point. It wasn’t that we bumped into each other on the street, I got the feeling that he was looking for me at all, but even if he had heard that I had been to the parade somewhere, it wouldn’t make sense to meet him so quickly.

Again, the reply was great, but Siegfried always maintained a no-nonsense attitude.

“Tessy knew? Well, it seems that there is a way to find it with divine power, but I don’t know the specifics.”

At that moment, I almost wanted to make sure that this fucking self-destructive woman scratched my heart one more time, so I almost got blood.

However, when I thought about it, it seemed to be close to tracking the divine power that I contained, so I decided to just skip it. It was rather an advantage to find out that the saintess might have a way to track her own divine power through such a trivial matter.

Siegfried was still unaware of our fantastic meeting, so I changed the subject without forgetting to nod my head appropriately and agree.

“I don’t deserve to be pursued like that without knowing it, but let’s move on. It doesn’t look like there’s anything urgent that you have to move like this, so why are you in such a hurry?”

On the one hand, I wanted to say something about the self-destructive saint’s unusual mind, but… Officially, it was strange to gossip about a girl I hadn’t met since the Great Demon Incident, so I decided to wait and see.

It was ultimately for the sake of Siegfried’s safety that he came to me and said that shit, so I don’t think he’ll harm him if I leave him alone, and he’s burned me once, so even if a similar situation happens, I’ll think a little and move. . If I can’t do that, somewhere without me, I’ll shout out that explosions are art and go to the god Ji serves.

After organizing my thoughts and waiting for Siegfried’s answer, Siegfried stroked my chin with a strange expression and slowly opened his mouth.

“Actually, like my brother said, I didn’t come here because I was busy. The first purpose was to congratulate me on receiving a decoration and becoming a wandering knight, and the second purpose was to see the face of both partners and partners. The promise we made at the academy is still valid, right? ?”

I guess you’re referring to how the demons were beheaded. I nodded lightly and expressed my affirmation, but Siegfried’s reaction was not so bright. It looked like there was still a reason left, but in reality there were more behind the scenes.

“And the last reason… This is a bit long, but it was very strong. So I came here to tell you to be careful.”

“…Be careful? What do you mean?”

“I heard that my younger sister is also participating in the expedition with the lady? Originally, I had a very strong feeling that I should go there? Although Tessie tends to see it as the latter.”

No, when a human called a warrior says something like that, you can’t hear it with one ear and let it go. Siegfried, who saw my expression grow bizarre in real time, slightly covered his face and added an explanation.

“It won’t be anything too serious. It’s a different feeling. Rather, it’s been taken care of, so nothing can happen. But…” ”

…Because there’s nothing wrong with being careful.”

“That’s right. My younger sister will take care of herself, but if she is careless and the lady gets hurt, it’s a different story, right?”

As expected of a man who carries three women at once, he knows it well. To be honest, I thought I was sick again when he suddenly appeared, but I started to feel solemn to say that it was a bizarre act stemming from pure goodwill.

“Then, are you going to the East like this?”

“That’s right. Maybe the day after tomorrow? It should move. In fact, this is also close to sneaking out.

Siegfried giggled, but that smile was a little different from what he had shown before. And it was obvious what that forced smile meant. Even though he has been through various battles, it is understandable that he is nervous because it is the first time he has been on a battlefield where an all-out war with demons is unfolding. In fact, it is a process of taking one step closer to the things that are the same as the reason you came here, so it may be a complicated and delicate feeling.

Still, ‘I’m a hero, so I’m invincible!’ I was in a much better condition than being killed for shouting, so I uttered a magical incantation that encouraged me with a sense of admiration.

“Do you fight for a day or two? What are you afraid of?”

“I’m not afraid to wash my child!”

The order was effective.
