Book 3: Chapter 1: Part 2



Heres the chapter today, enjoy~

Part 2

After the meal, there was some struggle over what to do with the bed and so on, but as I was mentally exhausted, I managed to get through it, and I was able to go to bed safely. And the next day, I found out that Lunas physical condition was okay now, after having rested for a day, so we once again decided to go to the place where we left Owen-san and the others.

It would be quicker if we moved with teleport magic, but since Luna wanted to move her body as well as rehabilitate, were moving on foot.

Honestly, I took Lexia-san and Luna, the attacker, without explaining anything to Owen-san. So its complicated for me to face him, but I can only apologize honestly. Im the one whos to blame. And theres no guarantee that Owen-san and the others are still in that place.

Truly, Yuuya and Night are just ridiculous To think that you can proceed in battle with an advantage against the monsters of this Great Devils Nest

Woof?

Luna says that with a somewhat distant look in her eyes, but I still havent gone that far into the depths of this Great Devils Nest, and to be honest, given the fact that I know of the existence of sage-san, I think I still need to train. Well, the sage warned me not to go too far in possessing too much power, though. Although, I do want to be strong enough to protect Night and my friends at least.

Oh, thats the entrance!

When the entrance of the forest finally came into view, Lexia-san pointed happily and told us that.

Along the way, we encountered a group of goblin elites, but there were no monsters near the exit, and we were able to pass through the Great Devils Nest safely.

Then

Ah! Commander, Commander! Look, look over there!

Huh? Lexia-sama!

I heard a voice and turned my gaze toward it, and I saw Owen-san and the others, just as they were when I first met them. Apparently, theyd been waiting here all day long.

When Owen-san saw us, he rushed over to us. Lexia-san just smiled, looking at Owen-san.

Ara, Owen. Good day.

Dont just good day me like theres nothing! Please refrain from acting arbitrarily! We are your guards!

As expected, Lexia-san felt bad about this situation, and she bowed her head obediently.

Im sorry.

U-um! Owen-san. Im sorry for bringing Lexia-san along with me

When I think about it calmly, its like some kind of kidnapping, isnt it? Is that okay? I wonder if Im still going to be charged for a crime?

When I looked at Owen-sans face with anxiety, Owen-san was about to say something for a second, but he let out a big sigh.

Sigh there are a lot of things I want to say, but considering Lexia-samas position and Yuuya-donos position, it would have been difficult to go against what Lexia-sama said.

No! It wasnt Lexia-sans fault; it was just that I got swept away in the moment

Owen-san and I were both apologizing to each other, but we cut off the conversation once we knew it wasnt going to progress at this point.

Ahem! Ah so, Lexia-sama. Ive been wondering since earlier, whos that woman over there? And I also heard that the little wolf at your feet is Yuuya-donos companion, but

Oh, come to think of it, I didnt introduce him properly. This little boy is my family, and his name is Night.

Woof! After being introduced by me, Night dexterously raised his paw and responded.

You seem to be a very clever wolf. Night-dono, thank you for saving Lexia-sama at that time.

Woof.

Night barked as if to say, Dont mind it.

Well, youre really clever, arent you? And what about that woman over there?

Yeah, she is.

The moment I was about to speak about Luna, Lexia-san, for some reason, puffed out her chest and answered on my behalf.

Shes Luna, the assassin who attacked me! And now shes my new bodyguard!

Wha-?

Hey, Yuuya. Is this woman an idiot?

I can only return a drawn-out smile to Luna, who says that while holding her head. Nah, I didnt expect her to be that honest Owen-sans expression froze at Lexia-sans words, but he immediately jumped back with Lexia-san in his arms and drew his sword when he got a distance away from Luna. Taking that as a cue, the other soldiers also draw their swords and point their blades at Luna.

Hey, Owen! Why do you keep pointing your sword at Luna? Put it down now!

What do you mean, Lexia-sama? This woman is the assassin who attacked you, isnt she?

Yes, she was. Therefore, Ive hired her as my bodyguard!

Its too unclear how we arrived at that Therefore!

Lexia-san, youre leaving out too many explanations. Owen-san is really having a hard time with this, isnt he? I cant say anything about it because Im involved with one of them this time.

Luna herself, whose sword was pointed at her, raised her hands in a bitter smile, showing her non-resistance.

Lexia. Do something about them.

Geez, its too much trouble. Cant you just go ahead and do it yourself?

What? Are you an idiot?

What does that mean!

When Lexia-sans mouth suggested an unexpected physical solution, Luna half-eyedly clicked her tongue at that.

Um, Owen-san! As for Luna, Lexia-san was right; she is now Lexia-sans bodyguard, so she is no longer dangerous!

Are you expecting me to just believe in your word? If thats what the assassins are after, then Lexia-sama is in danger.

Ugh

I really dont have anything to say about this overly sane opinion. Its pitiful, but as a proper bodyguard, Owen-sans words are correct. As I was thinking desperately about what I should say to make him believe me, Luna let out a sigh.

Sigh I cant blame you for not trusting me, but if I wanted to kill Lexia, I could have done it yesterday thats exactly what I could have done while we were sleeping together.

Lexia-sama?

What? We were staying at Yuuya-samas home together, so its only natural that we slept together, right?

Yuuya-dono?

Im sorry.

All I can do is apologize. Really, Im sorry. Owen-san wanted to say a lot of things, but when he looked at me, Lexia-sans face, and Luna, he let out another sigh and put his sword back down.

Sigh I still cant completely trust you, but Ill just stop pointing my sword at you.

C-commander? Are you sure?

It cant be helped. In fact, if you looked at her skill during the first attack, she could have killed Lexia-sama when she went to bed with her. It was either because of Yuuya-donos power that she didnt do that, or, it is as Lexia-sama said. Maybe its because shes now Lexia-samas guard whatever it is, we cant judge it now.

Geez, youre so specific with every single detail. Luna is now my guard, so you should just be obedient and delighted! Shes still a brilliant assassin!

That was too much.

Owen-san, who looked completely drained of his poisonous energy, looked at Lexia-sama with a dumbfounded face and then immediately looked at Luna with a serious expression.

Well then, assuming I believe Lexia-samas words that you have become her guard. Would you like to tell me about the person who asked you to assassinate Lexia-sama?

Hmm, I dont mind.

Luna spoke honestly about the details of the request as if she was no longer completely wary of the dark guild.

However, most people who make a request to the dark guild hide their identity. But this time, it was definitely a request from a noble of the kingdom. Apparently, it was also to curry favor with the first prince.

What?

No way why

Im completely an outsider, and I dont know the situation in their country, so its hard to say, but Lexia-san, who was so innocent until now, made a shocked face. The first prince means eh, Lexia-sans big brother or younger brother? No, but royalty is kind of complicated, so its not just like the common sibling

However, as for the first princes favors, its a matter of speculation. In the underground world, stories about the first prince often come up, but that story has not been completely confirmed.

Story about what?

Hmm? That is, of course, about the first prince hating the first princess that is to say, he hates Lexia.

Uh

Lexia-sans expression grew tense as Luna informed her of the fact that her brother might hate her. Night approaches Lexia, seemingly worried, and slips closer to her leg. Noticing Night, Lexia-san holds him in her arms.

AhN-Night.

Woof Woof.

Thank you.

Although she wouldnt be able to understand what Night was saying, Lexia-san smiled gently, knowing that Night was worried about her, nonetheless.

Well, lets continue the story. Anyway, I received a request for Lexias assassination, and in the request, it also included the information about Yuuya.

Huh? M-me?

I thought it was completely unrelated to me, so I suddenly became nervous when I was brought up.

Yeah. However, the existence of Yuuya is not completely known; its just vague information that says someone in the Great Devils Nest.

Even so, why would anyone want to know my information

For some reason, Luna replied to my words with a dumbfounded look.

You know what, Yuuya? Lexia was attacked once, before I attacked her. It seems that some professionals had been sent at that time, but then Lexia escaped to the Great Devils Nest. Well, their mistake back there was that they drove her deep into the Great Devils Nest, and as expected, those who were sent to do it never came backyes, except for Lexia herself.

Ah

Did you notice? If monsters killed the attackers, then it would be strange if Lexia wasnt attacked as well. Who else would have the skills to hide in the Great Devils Nest Yeah, theres none other than Yuuya and Night. That isnt normal when Lexia just returned normally like that.

Is that a roundabout way of saying Im not normal?

If Lexia is the only survivor, and the skilled assassin is dead, the only conceivable possibility is that someone saved her.

She ignored me.

Theyre going to assassinate the princess. The assassins must have planned it carefully, so they must be thinking that the assassins separated Lexia and Owen and the other guards. That would force them to consider the existence of a third party. They could think of it as a monster attack but then, as I said in the beginning, its unlikely that only Lexia would be lucky enough to survive. After all, all those skilled assassins are dead.

U-umu

Owen-san snorted at Lunas explanation. I feel like I want to hold my head up myself. What Luna says about the assassins shes talking about is probably from the first time I met Lexia-san. I didnt understand it at the time, but there was definitely blood and flesh splattered around the goblin general. In other words, that was

Thinking up to that point, I felt a sudden rush of blood.

Woof?

Yuuya-sama?

Eeh? A-ah, Im sorry. Its okay.

Night and Lexia noticed that I was acting strangely and called out to me in concern. Im not going to say that life weighs differently because theyre humans or anything like that, but its still something that comes to my mind.

Its not something I can say after taking the lives of monsters so many times. Thats what I thought, and while the shock still hasnt left me, I managed to recover.

I knew that someday people would discover Yuuya-donos existence, but it was sooner than I expected for that reason, I would like Yuuya-dono to meet His Majesty.

Ah, a-about that

Owen-sans words reminded me that I had another purpose other than to send Lexia-san and Luna here, and I cut his words off with trepidation.

Um Im sorry. If we had left yesterday, it would have been fine

Y-youre not gonna

I feel even more guilty as I see Owen-sans face turned pale as he looks at me.

Im sorry! Can I have an audience with the king at another time? I have a schedule to keep

Eeehh? Yuuya-sama, you wont come to the royal capital with me?

Lexia-san shouted in surprise, but once this golden week is over, the school will start as usual.

Im really sorry! I dont know when the next opportunity will come but I will definitely be coming over!

I know its rude, but all I can do is apologize. In response to me, Owen-san gave me a look as if his soul had been drained.

I-is that so haha, hahaha if you have other plans, it cant be helped, right

Hey, Lexia. Is this guy really okay? He looks like hes going to die.

Its okay. It happens all the time.

What does that mean?

Luna looks at Owen-san with an indescribable expression. No, Im very sorry for piling up your anxiety

After I desperately apologized, Owen-san corrected his posture as if to regain his composure.

Hmph! Then when do you think we will meet next?

Its its hard to say because my schedule is still very uncertain.

Im still trying to figure out what the schools events are going to be, too. In my old high school, I could have predicted it to some extent, but in my current high school, that prediction cant be relied upon

I see Then I would like you to come to the royal capital at a convenient time for Yuuya-dono.

Eh? Are you sure? Um what about the kings convenience?

I cant hide my surprise at the statement that said I could go whenever I want. I mean, how can I meet with the head of a country without making an appointment?

It may be difficult to say you have to come as soon as possible, but the next time will certainly give you more time, right? There are no major conflicts these days, and diplomatic and domestic politics have settled down. Well, theres also the first prince, but thats a matter of speculation, as she says.

Y-yes

Is it really okay? However, it is also true that it helps me.

Well Im really sorry, but Ill visit at my convenience for the next time.

Umu, thats fine. If you go straight down the street right there, youll find the city. And if you follow the single road that continues beyond that, youll be able to reach the royal capital. Unfortunately, I cant arrange for a carriage or anything like that, but

D-dont mind it! Im really sorry and thank you very much!

There was indeed a single paved road leading in the direction that Owen-san pointed to. If its a single road, then I wont get lost.

Well, I guess we should be leaving now. Theres a lot more we have to investigate now.

Leave it to me to deal with those who are in the same profession as me and to be vigilant. Ive been hired to do that.

Ill be expecting you for that.

I was worried about how Luna would be treated, but I was relieved to see that they didnt seem to be concerned with anything more than caution.

Uh~ Yuuya-sama, are you sure you cant come?

Uh sorry. Next time, Ill go to the royal capital myself.

Well, it would be a nuisance to Yuuya-sama if I kept him too long. Fine, Ill give up this time! But youll definitely come to the royal capital, wont you? Can you promise it?

Yes, I promise.

Lexia-san nodded with satisfaction at my words, and then went straight to the luxurious carriage that had been prepared for her.

As Night and I watched that scene, Luna approached me with nervousness.

Um Yuuya. Im sorry for all the trouble Ive caused you.

Thats not really a bother I was confused and really worried about a lot of things, but Im just relieved that Luna was able to be safe like this.

Yuuya

Woof, woof!

Night, too I see. You were worried about me

Luna muttered that softly as if holding her words. Then, as they got ready to return, Lexia-san called out to Luna from inside the carriage.

Luna! Were going to move, so get in the carriage now!

Yeah, Im coming.

Its a short exchange, but thats enough to make me feel like shell be able to get along with Lexia-san, and I couldnt help but smile looking at them. I hope they will get to know each other better and better over time.

Luna was about to chase the carriage that began to go slowly, but then she suddenly stopped and ran towards Night and me. And then Luna kissed me on the cheek.

Yuuya.

Eh? Eeehh!?

Aaaaaahhhhhh!

I heard Lexia-sans scream from the advancing carriage, but I could not understand it for what it was exactly for at this point.

While I froze in surprise to that extent, Luna blushed and said.

T-this kiss is a way of expressing gratitude and uh a-a declaration of war!

What?

I dont know! Figure it out for yourself!

As soon as Luna said that, she ran off towards the carriage with great speed.

Hey, Owen! Stop the carriage now! Im going to kiss Yuuya-sama, too!

Iyaa, the weather is so great.

Owennnnnnnnnn!

Apart from Lexias loud voice, Owen-san said that in a heartfelt, soothing voice.

Stop! Please stop it! I I want to kiss Yuuya-sama toooooo!

Lexia-san leaned out of the carriage and desperately reached out her hand. While watching the scene in a daze, I unintentionally touched my cheek as if to confirm the feeling I had just experienced.
