138 儚い犠牲 (1/2)

”We're going to ride this to King's Landing!

The test drive with Zita and Mei, and their very high praise, made Adelina believe in the safety of the car and look at it with anticipation.

”Isn't this fun? This will get us to King's Landing safely and very quickly!

”This is amazing! ...Oh, that's not a shell in the front, is it?

Oh, it's a bumper, made of metal, just in case. The bumper is made of metal just in case it's too light to be stable. Think of it as a weight to stabilize you. I see.

”I see! Weight! Weights!

Oh, shit. What?

What? What did you say?

No? I think you're imagining things.

Oh, my God. .......... Yeah.

Of course, the bumper is the car's protective gear for safety in the event of a collision, but this time, Masaru did not expect to hit anything in the environment, rather, the strength and structure of the bumper is more like a weapon than protective gear, but no one knows. It's not a Japanese road, but an unpaved wilderness full of demons, so it can't be helped.

I'm not sure what to make of this. Do you think you can handle it?

I'll make it work! I'll make it work! I mean, I need you to make it work!

Can I borrow Guy if I can?

What? Guy... he's good, right? I'm not the best with paperwork. Okay.

Oh, yeah, that's a relief. Okay.

What are you up to?

I'm not scheming. It's just, if Adelina's going to be queen, who else is going to have to be informed?

Oh, ......, that one. Is he gonna be okay?

He'll be fine. We'll figure it out.

Then I went with Adelina to a room in the temple that had been completely transformed into an office.

”Hey, Guy... you don't like paperwork, do you?
