Vol 2 Chapter 100 (2/2)
「Saira, does it see facility by the day’s end?」
「Hai, from what I can see on the map it seems like we’ll arrive by dusk nya」
Along the highway there’s a place with a decent lodging facility prepared, for use by merchants or adventurers
There are few to none in the countryside but, since this is provisionally a highway connected to the royal capital, that’s here this time
If a journey is planned out properly, that means that it’s possible to move without all that many constraints
Maa it’s fun to enjoy ca but since I’m tired you see
「Fuuuuuu!」
As ere congenially enjoying a ether for the nonce, Kyuu’s fur suddenly stood on end
Stopping in that place and, growling out so as to intimidate
「Kyuu?」
「――You have good intuition don’t you, as expected of a wild beast!」
Expressing an unbeatable smile, Makina went out one step in front
――An enemy is it!
I instantly switched the gears in my head
There’s a steep cliff on the right side of the
There’s some woodlands to
woodlands to our left side
Is it the left side?
the instant I turnedsound from the opposite side
I s
But――that wasn’t necessary
「Oh? ――tToo!」
Turning around Makina’s offhandedly extended arm――held none other than an arrow!
Makina snapped the still vibrating arrow, s
「Are you okay, Sairsan?」
「Ha, hai desu! Thank you very much」
The arroas so aimed at Saira was it
Makina grabbed the arroithout difficulty, using a fine glove that seelove that really only covered the hand
Rather than calling it a weapon, I feel like it seems to be just a decoration
Even so it seeoods
There’s no appearance of it being worn by the arrow’s friction
「……Makina, thank you! Saira, get behind me!」
「Hai desu nyaa」
Saira has also risen above countless battlefields at this point
She’s composed
「They did it froh their aim was precise, the poasn’t on level with Aione flying」
「There’s still no limitation that a sniper at the same level as Aim isn’t here」
「I suppose so, it’s iination isn’t it! Because there’s no limitation that today’s happiness will continue tomorrow!」
「Makina!?」
Makina said that tome and, jumped out on her own
She juht side’s cliff where the situation couldn’t be seen, all on her own
Confidence?
Conceit?
Or perhaps her sense of duty as a bodyguard?
Certainly we can’t e nuht but, to say that she should do soo alone because of that……
「Alice-san」
Saira drew out her gun and nodded to me
That it’s okay to go to support her
The eneht side’s cliff then?
「……I won’t move, sorry, I don’t want to expose Saira or Rin-chan or Kyuu to danger」
……Harden the defenses!
「Lightning・Field!」
Deploying a lightning barrier, I prepared for a surprise attack
Makina……sorry
「At such a ti nya……」
「……Makina, won’t lose will she?」
Still being carried bymy clothes
「It’s okay, Makina contended evenly even against oneechan right?」
「……Unn」
But what should I do?
By leaving Makina on her own like this……
Extending the field to it’s er be a place in this vicinity that I cannot grasp?
Since doing so would quickly run out h……
Eei, as if I would forsake her because of that!
「Please don’t underestimate the disciple of Ice and Snow!」
「Do your best, deshi+!」
「Okayー!」
Full power!!
I expand the field widely and grasp the state of battle
「Eh――?」
Grasping it, I’m astonished
The match has already been resolved――
「The enemy is 6 people, 1 partyThey aren’t outlaws are they,like the country’s undercover operatives? Who do you have business with? Though to speak of where the fame is it’s Alice-san I suppose……That’s not how it is is it?」
Makina incapacitated all 6 members that were down
that were down the cliff and, soon released 5 people bringing just 1 with us so as to make him tell us the situation
Since she released as many as 5 people that would be to say that they really aren’t a threat or anything
「Even if you stay quiet the situation won’t improve you know? You expect that I’ll use discretion? It’s pointless」
「……Kill」
「That’s so for you to worry about regarding life and death」
What Makina brought along was a black haired black eyed,black attire and the appearance of a ninja
The sharpness of the look in his eyes implies that he is indeed already used to the battlefield
「……Makina, in front of Rin-chan, more than that is」
「RoーgerIt’s okay, Alice-san」
Looking at Rin-chan as she clung to h
「Then, you should be grateful to my employer-sama――Jin-san」
「!?」
The black attired man wavered for an instant
And so in the next instant, that wavering was drawn in like it was a lie
I suppose it’s certain that he’s used to this sort of situation
Even so I’
「Nee, I actually know the situation, you seeEven if you hide it it’s pointless」
「Kill」
「I, come from the same town as the princess-miko-sama you see? I of course know about Jin-san’s matters」
「……Kill」
「The reflection of a shi+nobi aren’t you, Jin-san」
……This black attired ?
His at captured isn’t that of a small fry
A 6 person party with such a man in it, without injury, in that short time?
Just what sort of battle happened?
Honestly, I wanted to see it
Makina, just who are you?
I feel that a name with that amount of skill should not have not become famous
Till also, Est-san as well, even Marisan, probably Libra too are well known in each country right
Makina?
I feel that it seeh……
「I know Jin-san’s aih, in a certain sense you came at us in an easily understood place didn’t you」
「……」
「I suppose that you did a preliminary trial to observe Alice-san’s true power but, my condolences」
「……」
U～mu
He’s persisting in being silent to a degree that we’re getting nowhere isn’t he
Makina is displaying in Makina’s way, behavior like it’s fine either way in relation to that matter
U～～mu
Maybe this side should in this side’s way at least ask about what concerns me
「Nee, e～tto, you’re, Jin-san?」
「……」
At lare
It’s a gaze with a sharpness almost like a bladed object
「You, I notice that you resemble someone but……」
「……」
Morosely falling into silence, a black attired man
「Is it possible that, you happen to know the name Solt?」
「……」
Dislikeable isn’t it, I have so I remember, because of this unpleasant silence you know
After that the look in his eyes
「That is so, Alice-sanSince, that is such because this person is Solt-san’s――oniisan」
Makina revealed that truth, with a lightheartedness like she was talking about the weather
Is this sweet even forI pick out the bones from the fried fish that caht not be used to what s called eating fish with chopsticks but, Rin chan used her chopsticks inally raised in a region where chopsticks were used commonlyHai, Rin chanIf there are bones take the observed my fish preparation ith a is it ready yet is it ready yet Rin chan nodded energeticallyHahaa, Alice san is like a mother

while groaning Eh and the like in front of the tableKyui kyui Ah , hai haiPlease wait a little, since I ive food by tugging on the opening of my clothes s sleeveIt s fine either way but this fox doesn

the east fro together on a carriage but, at Makina s suggestion we caKyuu is also here and, since she had a sort of extremely proper opinion that it would cause a bother if we rode a carriage togetherI want to think that she doesn t particularly have an ulterior erMaa, actually the sort of suggestion she gave was to go not by carriage but horse but the people here all don t ride horses Is Makina s country of origin here While walking the sa a conversation to Makina as she walked besidewith us by flow but, since there are too htBut since I have a traveling lifestyle because of my
