Chapter 59 (2/2)

[Me too. When my brother had started to acting strange, he said it was a necklace for protection....] (Narellina)

Orlando has an astonished expression on his face and Leria-san let out a sigh to release her tension. Perhaps except Naminissa, Leria-san suspected all people around the two. Probably it was a breath of relief because she found out the perpetrator wasn't among the people here.

[With this my engagement is canceled.... great....] (Naminissa)

While Naminissa mumbled something in a low voice, I can feel she emitted a black aura for some reason. This time Leria-san asked me.

[However, why would he do such a thing?] (Leria)

[Who knows? But is that really unexpected? Such a man, I thought that  he would proudly use any means to fulfill his desire. It seems they are coming] (Wazu)

I said so and pointing at the forest, everyone turned their face towards the direction. There was a group with red shield heading towards this place. Approximately 800 people by a rough estimation. There is the man  in question, Denoga at the front. On his side, there is a big man armed with red knuckle pads in both arms.

[That guy!!] (Leria)

[Do you know him?] (Navirio)

Leria-san cried out at the sight of the big man. When Navirio asks, Leria-san nods after clearing up her throat while still focusing her line of sight at the big man.

[His name is Flugel Razor. He is an S-ranked adventurer who is skilled in close-combat fighting as you can see from his equipment] (Leria)

On the word S-ranked, the tension in this place increased at once. Finally S-rank huh. I wonder how strong he is....

[My knights!! Take your swords!! The enemy is coming!!] (Narellina)

The atmosphere of delight disappeared on Narellina's shout and the knights clad themselves with fighting spirit in an instant.

They are well-trained huh....

Navirio also passing some instructions to his knights as well. Leria-san is going to explain the situation to adventurers. The knight are moving in a hurry.

In this place I, Orlando, Naminissa, Floyd, and Kumia are all that remain. I had Meru stayed in the air just in case.

[Say.... as a man who aspiring to become a knight, should I also do something in this situation? I can’t stick up with the knights movement though] (Orlando)

[Oh yeah, I think that’s a good idea to appeal.... Though I also don’t know how the knights are going to move] (Wazu)

When Orlando and I are having such a conversation, Navirio and Narellina approaching us.

[It may be a bold request because the opponent is S-rank, but I’d like to ask the cooperation from you guys] (Navirio)

[I want you to lend me your power again] (Narellina)

On their words, Orlando and I answered with an acceptance and followed Navirio and Narellina from behind.
