Chapter 173 (1/2)
Hello guys. Before anything. I’m really sorry for not updating these last two days. My parents came to visit and I had to accompany them and was unable to get to my PC.
Thanks for your comments, feddback and for worrying for me.
Now let’s go to the chapter. Enjoy!
Original:
Later we reunited with everyone and started eating together, Runo-san started secretely telling me stories about when Naminissa and Narelina were younger but, those two got wind of it and it had to be stoped. Such a pity, it was entertaining to hear stories about when the two of them liked to play pranks on their older brother Navirio. And like that we stayed one night in here. We wanted to also stay up guarding in turns but the knights refused. Well it will be alright because they are knights so we slept soundly.
And the next day we started moving. Getting out of the forest is a town nearby but to get there would take some days so I looked for Runo-san many times in the middle of our journey in order to hear more stories about the Princesses but they would always appear out of nowhere and would interrupt us. Come on, it’s okay to being interesting in your old stories…
Like that we stayed one night in the town and parted with the kinghts in that town. It seems that the knights will head to Grave-san’s country from here on. Besides me Naminissa and Narelina also wrote some introductory letters for the knights, but while mine was addressed to Grave-san, the girl’s letters were addressed to Grave-san’s wives. We exchanged farewells with the knights at the entrance of the town and headed towards the Imperial Capital.
In our way to the Imperial Capital on the main road, we entered a small forest and a man appeared in order to interrupt our advance.
“Fuu… Finaly this day has come… That day I was unable to display the might of my swordsmanship by correspondence…”
… Mh? Even if you tell us that… I seem to remember that blue haired young man from somewhere… Blue hair? And that face… Swordsmanship by correspondence?
“AH! I remember you!! The bandit candidate that was being cheered by his family!!”
“Forget about that!!”
Is that something delicate to touch? He yelled with all his might. Might be, seeing him all embarrassed and red-faced. For the time being I ask everyone to wait for me and confront Blue-san. It seems that they are already used to it because they took a rest and Freud took out of who-knows-where some black tea and started to serve everyone. Are? Seeing that scene he looks like a proper butler but I wonder why when he treats me I can’t see him like a butler at all…?
“I gave my family the slip!! They aren’t here any more! Now we can cross swords to our hearts content!!”
“And now this time…”
I look behind Blue-san who is in high spirits to confirm and effectively his family was nowhere to be seen… His family was nowhere to be seen but… For some reason I could see a woman hidden in the shadow of the trees. Her hair was green as the foliage and her facial features were cute. She was looking over to us, or more precisely, she was giving worried looks at Blue-san.
“… Excuse me… Who is that lady hiding in the shadow of the trees?”
Blue-san’s expression changes suddenly with my words. Blue-san stops his movements in order to check behind him and Green-san covers her face in embarrassment.
“Why are you here?”
Blue-san raises a surpised question. Green-san jumps from hearing Blue-san’s voice and timidly shows herself. It seems that Blue-san was unaware that Green-san was there.
“… Because I was worried… that you might get hurt…”
“I’m okay!! Even if I look like this, I’m strong!!”
Nope, you don’t look that strong…
“Em? First let me ask who she might be?”
I ask that and Blue-san turns over here and bashfuly says…
“Well… she is my woman.”
Wow, Blue-san’s woman? Is that so? Is she going to become his wife in the future? Green-san gets happily shy at hearing Blue-san’s answer and when she enters my field of vision, she makes a little bow.
“… In other words, you had your girlfriend cheer for you this time instead of your family.”
“…”
