191 Holy Virgin Dispatch 3 (1/2)

If you think so, if you can finish everything in two weeks...

”No, no matter how close it is, there are few lodgings near the border right now, so staying in an accommodation is a long way off. You won't be able to do it in two weeks. Still, if we hurry, we have to camp. But I can't let you struggle like that.”

Glitter ~, I think Lecter's sparkle is telling me not to go this way.

”Oh, camping... that's my first experience...”

It's a pretty wild experience. I hope the bottom is not too hard when sleeping. Do you eat mobile food? Dried meat? Oh, does it taste good?

What if I was thinking vaguely?

Father,

”Whatever it is, if it is a royal camp, it will be more splendid and comfortable than those lodgings. Nice and big tents, full of fluffy cushions and blankets, and warm rice! Good, good ~ I want to try camping like that.”

And for some reason, I let my eyes shine and spoke, and at the same time, I could not see the salivation of illusion.

Me, too.

”Oh, is that so? Well, if the priest is right, I'm a common man, so I wouldn't have to sleep in a luxury bed, would I? No difficulty? If it's enough to detour and spend some time staying at the inn, it's enough to sleep somewhere a little stiff. If I have a blanket, I can handle it. Can I take a little more blankets underneath? Well, even if it hurts a little, I can fix it myself! Then let's hurry and come home.”

I was unexpectedly positive.

Wouldn't you like to work hard if I fulfilled my minimum duty to the King, sold my gratitude to the ”people of Grange”, and as a result Lecter's reputation improved?

Enemies only have time.

That's the only problem. I'm sure.

”... I wish I could go too.”

As if you had read my mind, Lecter gave up slightly and said softly.

I mean, no, no, General, if Sama was accompanying my wife in this situation, I wouldn't be able to. What are you talking about?

You work here. And it's my job too.

But before it snows, anything must hurry home.

”Then I'll get ready in a hurry. Please arrange a carriage and camp for Lecter. Because I don't really understand.”

”... if I had been a 'Virgin' before, I would have followed if I had said 'Don't go'.”

I mean, even if you suddenly remind me of something... hey?

”Really? But wouldn't the original Virgin want to go at a time like this? And you call it a hiwakari mashita?

Isn't that as popular as it gets? I thought so.

”That's what they teach me. Judgment is told to obey the husband. Otherwise, no matter who he is, he's going to help us, and we're not going to be able to pack up.”

Oh, my God, are you trying to be a virgin? I wondered when it was going to be like this.

Because I'm me. My life is mine.

”Of course I'll talk to you, but I'd like to make a decision myself if I could. I've been happy lately to be able to work as a saint to help people. That's why I'd like to be as helpful as possible if I had someone to help me. Of course, within the limits of common sense. I'll see who you're dealing with, and I don't care who you're dealing with. But this time it's a national request, and then it's a formal job, right? Whatever it is, it's a royal order.

”... that's right, that's who you are. And that's the charm. I can't help it... go away.”

It was Lectol that broke.

Well, I can't obviously disagree with the country's request from the standpoint of a general.

”Thank you. I'm glad to be an understanding husband.”
