Chapter 64: Territory of Earl Rockford

We, a group heading for the royal capital with Margrave Volton, have left the territory of Margrave Volton and have entered the territory of Earl Rockford which is in between the royal capital, which the royal farave Volton

The group's journey to the royal capital has been favorable

Monsters the likes of Goblin and Mad Dog aren't attacking They do not approach for fear of Tsubaki, the Drake Horse

Passing through villages and towns in the Rockford territory, its capital soon came into view

「It is not to the extent of Volton's fortress town, but scale of this town is large too」

「Yes, it is next to the royal capital, after all」

「I hear that its feudal lord, Lord Rockford, is on good teret that infor at the town of Rockford in the distance throughinside the carriage, I passed the ti idly with Sophia and Maria

「I heard about it from Barack-dono and Hans-dono of the Adventurers Guild」

「Because Lord Rockford gets along with Lord Volton, I heard he is not an arrogant scum of a noble」

Maria talked about infor to our conversations with Papeck-san and Hans-san who are well informed about the circumstances of various countries, ht people There are still rotten nobles that the King has yet to purge, but aht is Valkyra Kingdoe” It would seem that there are many nobles that try to uphold this duty that coe And we're about to visit a place that consists of those nobles

Before long, we drew nearer the ramparts that were lowerthan those in Volton Lord Volton's carriage advanced towards an area separated fro past the people standing in the long line beside us」

「We are treated as a part of Margrave Volton's entourage on this occasion, after all」

「It's a great feeling, isn't it」

The petite bourgeois in me feels aard at the preferential treathtful as usual That brazen spirit of hers is enviable

We were able to enter the gates of Rockford thanks to Margrave Volton's status If we had done it norht have been a slim chance to do so because of Tsubaki's appearance

With Margrave Volton's in the lead, the entourage of carriages advanced to Earl Rockford's estate in the heart of this town

Contrary to Volton, the Rockford estate is not a fortress-like castle I believe it would be closer to what is called a luxury mansion built on a vast plot of land Its walls are a little high for a mansion, but that is within reason for the residence of a feudal lord

「It's really different froh ranking monsters at the border, it is necessary if there ever comes a time where the castle must house and protect its citizens」
