Chapter 255 (1/2)

12-8 Under the Sakura Tree

Satou's here There's the saying, “A corpse is buried underneath the Sakura tree”, but I don't knohether it's from a novel or a fable, let alone the source's title

“It looks grand seen from below isn't it”

“It sure is It's eerily beautiful”

Iup at the Sakura tree

So my sleeve It's Mia

The beastkin girls have uards, so Mia and Lulu have e

“Once again”

“–the 『eerily beautiful』 part?”

“Yes”

Mie ecstatically closes her eyes and pushes her ht to the opposite side, Arisa is also taking the same pose

Astonished, I seek help to Lulu who's sitting in front ofsakurcolor for an instant

–You girls, did you conspire for this beforehand?

The carriages arrives at the place Baron Muno is staying unaffected with the trifle inside

We're e

Apparently, the luggage carriage that the beastkin rode had entered through the back entrance

“Welcome to the Royal Capital”

Guided by the way that's for in roe enter the mansion

It seems these maids aren't Baron Muno's servants, but this mansion's

As the proof, these ant one-piece-type uniforms

Pina who's inin the entrance hall

“We have been waiting for you Chevalier-sama, Karinsama”

“It's been a long tilad to see you're healthy”

“News about Chevalier-sama's activities had also reached Muno territory”

We would obstruct the , so I cut it off appropriately

Unlike the battle maids I've seen in Muno territory and the Duchy Capital, Pina is acting gracefully like it's natural, “I've been aroom

Checking on the map, Baron Muno and Consul Nina seem to be in the northern conference roo conference, the Baron's stareatly diminished

This is the first time I saw the abnormal status, [Overworked]

“Baron-saeet back”

Theseveral tea sets and tecakes on the table The tea cakes are of still-wars put on small bowls

The bell on top of the table is probably for calling thenear the room entrance to fall back

After a bit, the beastkin girls who have entered from the mansion's back entrance meet up with us

“Mual occupation~?”

“First come, first served”

Ta to recapture the lap that Mia has taken

Today, the positions of these two are reversed But, I don't think it's so that need to be competed so much Pochi tries to climb and sits beside me, she doesn't seem to be interested with my lap

Whenbeside me, she smiles, “He”

That was too cute I involuntarily patted her head

Now then, I want to talk about our policy from now on, but since Lady Karina is naturally in the room, it's hard to do it

I guess I'll talk about it once we get to my own mansion I've prepared in the royal capital

I had prepared aas so the airshi+ps and the ic swords here I've announced that Akindou is the purveyor of Pendragon's house beforehand so it's quite convenient Echigoya is for big things like airshi+ps when I act as Nanashi+ or Kuro, so I' use of Akindou for Satou's businesses

“Still, even though I had thought that you were strong, I would've never guessed that you would even win against Julberg-shi+ of shi+ga Eight Swords”

『It was truly splendid』

“I'm honored”

Lady Karina and Raka are praising Liza

Pochi and Ta about them

Mia who's won ood mood, unrelated to it

I don't think that place is that coh…

“But you know, although we've dodged it with the Pendragon Seven Braves thing, won't Lizsan or Master get to becoht Swords like this?”

While drinking the cup beside me, Arisa asked anxiously

Oh good That [Pendragon Seven Braves] thing wasn't serious I was sure that she hen I looked at that proud-looking face

“Pendragon Seven Braves nanodesu!”

“Seven braves~? Karina is included too~?”

Pochi and Ta, are they not embarrassed with that name?

Lady Karina tilts her head after hearing Arisa

“Liza will surely be, but they won't recoht? If it's swordser?”

“That's not true at all nodesu!”

“Master is stronger~”

Pochi and Ta their heads

“But”, and so Lady Karina looks unconvinced

She's been thoroughly beaten by Pochi and Tama in the Labyrinth City's mansion

From Lady Karina's perspective, I probably am not comparable to the two
