75 It'S Not Bad To Be Rolled In The Palm Of Your Hand.
Let's go back a little bit. That was when Ain left the castle. Explain how Ain arrived in the land of duel.
—— Ein returned to the castle for a day. We were to leave King's Capital again for a little while. It was for a duel with a nobleman who was committing injustice, Viscount Sage. But when it comes to dueling, it's a duel between demons that each other has, and it doesn't mean that they fight each other.
However, as for Ein, if the other person isn't a sea dragon class monster, why don't you figure it out? That's what I thought.
Isn't that why you can have yourself a namesake title? I thought so. Of course the idea was frustrated by Chris, but of course it is.
And finally, the time has come for Ain to leave the castle.
"Um. Krone...... this is the carriage you arranged?
"Yes, I do. Nice, isn't it? It's the new Augusto Chamber of Commerce, and I haven't even revealed it yet."
Phew, and a chest stretching krone. Does she not understand that her body, which is gradually becoming splendid, is poisonous to Ain's eyes?
"No, you can't do that if you arrange that."
Sensitive lateral proximal krone. The carriage she arranged arrived at the castle. The carriage is to be boarded by three people: Ain and Krone, and Chris.
Ain waited in the castle, but the carriage arrived and left the castle. And between the castle gate and the castle door… where the so-called royal carriage always stops, the carriage arranged by Krone was parked.
At first glance, I thought, is this a carriage? feelings.
"I don't know what five horses means."
"He really wanted the demon to pull it off. But growing them takes time, and most importantly, it costs a lot of money. That's why they fit in the horse."
"Oh, let's go... nothing fits, so it turns out normal"
Five horses pull off, which means the carriage is quite a size too. I feel more than three times as good as the carriage Ain't always used purely.
"Hey, what about the narrow road?"
"The furnace is packed like a water train. That's why I heard you let yourself walk..."
I don't know what that means, but you don't need that horse, do you? Or so I think, but I can somehow say it.... but it's not like this carriage doesn't interest me. Because of this, I decided to indulge in this unpublished carriage.
Clone dressed in a black suit-like uniform today. She's wearing a skirt underneath, plus her beautiful legs are wrapped in black tights today, and the way she looks is troubling. It sends a flickering glance at me.... not to let Krone find out, of course.
Such a brilliant star crystal bracelet on her arm, as always. And Krone's favorite necklace, featuring one large grain of black pearl on the chest.
"Thank you for waiting, Dear Ein"
"Good evening, Mr. Chris.... Well, that brings us all together. Shall we get in?"
I also spoke to the twins. 'We'll be fine because we're nearby, let's just go away together'. The twins are smart and understand exactly what Ain says. After stroking his head, he has given him a few fish at a time that he had prepared.
"Yes, sir."
"Well... come on, Your Highness"
Krone walks ahead and opens the carriage door. And pass Ain first, then Chris. Finally, I go into the carriage myself and start guiding inside.
"What do you say, Your Highness? A lodge for the nobles… this carriage was built to compete even in comparison to those rooms"
"... I don't think it's a carriage. It's amazing."
Clone named His Highness on purpose. The two look at each other's faces and laugh small at each other.
In the carriage, the Inn of Ist, where I stayed until the other day. There seemed to be no significant difference compared to that room. So much so that this carriage was so full of attention, that it seemed like 'I can live here', it was a relaxing space.
"I didn't know you could have so many carriages... that's something like the Augusto Chamber of Commerce. By the way, Lord Krone, should I put my luggage in the back?
"Yep. I have a luggage storage area, so please be there."
Chris carries everyone's luggage to the back. For a few days at a time, I have prepared my luggage so that I don't have any problems staying there.
I can't say how big they are all the time, but they still have enough bed space to go to bed, so everyone can rest in a private room for once.
"Well... hey Ein"
Krone looking back. Similar to the motion, her silky hair fluttered.
"I can't believe there's such a carriage... hmm? What, Krone?"
Krone made sure Chris went in the back. Stop by Tottotto and Ain's side. Makeup looks the same as usual, but lips are more glossy and attractive than usual. I was about to stretch my fingers, but Ain was able to stop me with reason.
"Shall I tell you something good?
"... a good thing?
Krone told Ein to talk to him like that in a small voice. Bend your body to the letter and your torso approaches Ain. Then keep your hands down softly in that position and gently pick the hem of the skirt.
"Yep. Good thing... you know what?
That said, Krone flickers up her uniform skirt, only a few centimeters up. Every centimeters up, her attractive legs dew, nailing Ain's gaze.
"Hey, Krone!?
Krone winks lightly when he sees the hasty Ein. After that, pap and skirt back, approaching Ain's ear......
"You know what? As long as you're looking at the flicker... can we just watch it like right now?
Actually, I've noticed it since the beginning.
I can't believe Ain's gaze on his own leg, if you look at it from Krone, it was the prospect. There's just no reason why Krone doesn't like Ein looking at her legs. That's why I left that gaze behind.
When she talks in her ear, her exhalation is soggy in her ear. Then Krone smiles gently and steps away from Ein.
"I'm going back now... is that it? What can I get you?
"No, it's nothing. I just saw some rubbish on Ain's shoulder, so I was just taking it."
I left my stuff and came back, Chris. I saw Krone near Ain and asked if anything had happened.
"Was I? Dear Ain, I need to be careful who I am..."
"... well, you are. I'll be careful."
Krone, who doesn't move, lies to Chris even more. Then he looked back towards Ain, his tongue small as a pelo, and then he winked.
"... I don't feel like I can win"
Running through such a thing, Ain's gaze is directed at Krone's leg, which he starts walking.
Because of this, you've been allowed... yes, I look in grandeur, thinking in my heart.
But staring at her legs, I thought. '... yeah, I knew I'd lose this'.
Because you're honestly staring at your legs, it's only Ein's complete defeat. I don't care where you look, I just think of it as a loss.
—— If you calm down, it would have been over Krone's palm all the way up here. But Ain't thought of it that way, nothing seeped remorse.
*
The carriage thus departed from the King's Capital with a view to a place of duel with Viscount Sage. Due to the time involved, several breaks will be taken on the road. It's still early time to rest, so Ein had started filling out the report as planned, but he didn't expect this to happen.
"Then Dear Ein. We'll help you as planned. '
The trigger is trivial. On his return from Ist to King's Capital, Ain had promised Chris. That was a little promise to bring the report together, and if that was all there was to it, it shouldn't have been important.
Yes, it shouldn't have been possible... but there was a problem.
"Huh... yeah. You should fix that."
On the right is Krone.
"You're getting used to it, Master Ain. Yes... that's as concise as it sounds, but no problem."
And on the left, Chris, he was in what's called a flowering state on both hands.
At first, Krone against Chris? It should have started out like that, but we both have serious personalities in our roots. It was not a love comedy air called a battle between women, and even the atmosphere quickly turned into a serious space.
But if you only wonder one thing...
"Hey, I'm glad you're telling me, isn't it close?
Both would be too close to Ein. Consciousness also creates limits on nice spiritual abilities (King Prince Mental), so gather your eyes on the documents in front of you. But it was dangerous for Ain't elbow, who moved, to touch their chest, even if she changed her posture slightly or just carried a pen.
"That's good. This is a better way of pointing it out. Actually, you can point it out right away, right?
"Yep. But if you get used to reports, it's not hard, so you'll be able to do it soon."
What, you're the only one who's lit up? That makes me even feel sorry for the other way around. But I can't deny that it smells good from both sides.
Krone is dressed in gorgeous aromas of rose and fruit. Her fragrance, which fragrances without disgust, is just a little sweet, 'more' and makes me want to come by even more. The fragrance, which was not only sweet but not alluring, was like Krone himself.
Like the other day, Chris smells just like the perfume he was wearing on his way home from Ist.
In fact, Ain had me sniffing that bottle of perfume yesterday. So I understand the smell of perfume, but it's so different from the scent Chris is wearing.
In other words, the sweet pheromone-stained fragrance that Ein occasionally feels is "Chris" own fragrance.
—— In my head, Ain't calmly analyzing the two of us. He is only capable of writing mechanically.
"(I wonder if this is" selfless "...)"
Around being able to feel that way, I wouldn't have been able to reach selflessness yet. But I can't deny that I'm getting a certain sense of closeness.
"Ein, by the way. What are we gonna do next?
"Hmm? What next?
"It's about the next place to investigate. At least two places, right?... Baltic and Magna. We're going to investigate both locations again, right?
"Oh, that way next time."
Since the brief report itself had already been made, the places that would be the next destinations had also been communicated to Krone and Olivia. That's why Krone has been asking what Ein thinks.
"Which way are you talking about...? So, what do we do?
"I'm going to check on Baltic with permission from the restricted area."
The area that seems to have the most clues left. Considering that, the old demon kingdom still comes to mind.
"Ah, Master Ain, the old demon kingdom is dangerous!
I waited right from Chris, but it takes. That would also be true, whatever the Old Demon King's Realm is, an undisclosed area that has not been elucidated at all. Now it is only conceived as a possibility, but there is danger at a level that is almost certain.
"... hey Ein? I agree with Chris. Exactly. The old demon kingdom is dangerous.... shouldn't we go a little further over there?"
"My current mentality is in danger, too."
"... uh, Ein?
"... Dear Ein? What the hell is that..."
I'm pinched by both of you. The situation is bad for my heart. The words leak out of my mouth.
"Uh... nothing.... Well, I do think it's dangerous, but it doesn't make sense not to do it."
They didn't know what Ain was talking about for a moment. But the next word I utter, of course, is immediately understandable, 'It's dangerous, but I have to do it'. I was taking that word deeply.
After a little over the day, the three of us went into bed after finishing the report. Finally we arrived by the stage river.
Already in the upstream direction is a line of Viscount Sage with two Krakens in formation as planned.
Both Ain's side and the ship that was leading the sea dragon have docked on the shore, where Ain has made the twins' wait 'so they can't move.
"Bye, Krone. Can I have Krone wait here?
"Am I Ain's aide? What are you waiting for?
"Lord Krone. From the mouth of a pig on a man's face, the thing that utters a man's words is Viscount Sage. May I entrust you with the command of the carriage and ship here?
Chris tells her about Sage in quite an expression. Krone also honestly followed Chrone's tone, which was different than usual.
"... you should honestly wait. Ok...... then, both of you, be careful"
Ain't seen Chris with a flashing face. I can't block my open mouth. So many words she uttered were still dirty dialogues to the top. Not only his humanity... there is the fact that he is committing a crime, or that he cursed Ain, and Chris no longer considers Sage as a person.
"Dear Ein,"
"What?"
"After the duel is over, hold Sage by the knight on board the ship. In some cases, you could lose your neck."
If there is ever a rumble, if there is a possibility of danger...... it would mean executing it on this occasion.
"Um, maybe you're worried about me? He said it might happen right in front of him."
"... Yes"
If you are royal, it is normal to see people die. Living without it would be difficult the other way around. But Chris still cared about Ain.
"I don't like this way of saying it..."
Breathe loudly once. And vomit big, and finally breathe small again.
"... When I was a sea dragon, I saw someone crushed to death. I also saw people floating at sea and dying.... I saw many dear people die. So, even if the people who don't need to love me are convicted, it's not as big a shock as it sounds. The only thing I want to protect as a royal is my dear Ishtarika people... so I understand he should be"
So it's okay. Ain't told Chris that. This was the conclusion Ain became Ain and considered as a royal position.
Ein's expression never meant he was pessimistic, but looked grand somewhere.
"... I understand. Then let me also wave this sword for the people of Ishtarika."
"Yeah. I believe you, Mr. Chris."
Quietly determined, the two walk with their feet intact to where Sage waits. Then Sage, who approached Chris, greeted them with a humble grin.
... Yeah, I'm still a good belly today.
"Are you finally here? I'm tired of waiting... but as promised, I praise you for bringing that woman"
"Promises and nothing. It's my precious knight, so naturally. Quickly though."
"Hmm...... well fine. Then we'll reconfirm our decision about this duel. You don't mind?
"Yep. Please."
Even so, no special many rules exist.
-If a third party should not intervene, other than demons intervene with each other, it will be a defeat on the side of the intervention.
· Regarding victory or defeat, no matter the demon's life or death. Also, I won't compensate you for killing their demons.
-The winner can ask for the compensation he wants from his opponent (Ein side wants legitimate compensation, Sage side wants Chris)
"... ok. So can I just ask you one question?
"I don't mind."
Ein, who saw the rules, once wondered and asked Sage about it.
"In case you abstained halfway, it was when the demon in your hand didn't stop. Doesn't this compensate for killing their demons?
"I wonder what you're going to say... no compensation in that case. I don't need anything."
"It's like a duty of effort, isn't it?
"Oh, you're right. Wouldn't you use a good word?"
Sage is not going to stop from the beginning. Instead, I came here with the intention of eating up Ain's demons. So it's easy for Ein to say this to me first. That's what I thought.
"Then I'm relieved. That said, one more thing... Kraken, there are two of them."
I'll just make sure. I knew it from the beginning, but I wanted to hear how you would answer it.
"Nobody said a duel was one-on-one! If you're the only one with me, then..."
I laugh small so Chris doesn't find out. As we were talking about, the bet between the two of us didn't come true.
"Then I've got two of these with me, so you're okay with two on two, right?
Sage, whose nose is screwed, speaks a mysterious theory without knowing why.
"Become... hi, aren't you cowardly!
"What's cowardice... it's the same condition. No problem, right?
I almost laugh at what's cowardly, but I can manage Ain't. I decided to be happy that I got a good souvenir story.
"Phew... Phew! The duel starts in ten minutes. It would be inappropriate for you to complain later. Let's get to work!
"Don't hesitate, then"
Ain and Chris then leave by the sage to move on to their original place.
"Should I think about some kind of operation or something?
"I thought I should tell the twins not to break my stomach."
"... too much to eat?
"Sir Left."
And finally, the scene returns. Return to when Ain discovers the devouring side of El and Al. That's how Ain and Chris came back to be on their own. Krone and I were also rendezvous and taking our time.
Looking at the twins, Ain't got no tension whatsoever. Ain't got a chill about the air.
"But. I'm not a foodie that far."
From his mouth. He tells me who the drooling twins are, that it is as if it were his parents' Ain, and Ain speaks of dissatisfaction.
"I don't know if I have to stop that one... it's usually twisted, right? Al's body......"
"I'm fine because I'm not hurting. I'm sure."
What Krone sees is her sister Elle. The way he's hammered his brother Al's tail is no longer a limitless cup of patience for a meal.
"Lord Krone. I was wondering if it was okay because it didn't hurt for once... But Master Ain? It was the first time I went to the Majolica Demon Stone Store. I don't think it was much different from the twins now."
"... lying."
"It's true... weren't you aware..."
I have no consciousness at all. But when I was a sea dragon crusading last year, I thought I had a taste of the sea dragon's magic stone, and I don't think it makes much difference.
"I was anxious just now. But when I look at the twins, I'm starting to feel like there's nothing wrong with Chris."
"That's an odd encounter, Krone. Actually, so am I."
I guess this watershed is no longer like a dining room for the twins.
"But don't you realize that the Viscounts of Sage are sea dragons?
"There's a distance there, and the twins just look flirty, so you don't know? I know you'll find it just as close..."
"I see. Well, there's no way that guy's coming this way."
In case he figured it out, he would surely laugh niggardly just to be surprised once. Even Ein was anxious, the Sea Dragon twins are still close to the baby. So if it's not a battle, Sage will definitely think about it.
—— and slowly having that conversation, the time for a duel finally arrives. Ain stood up and started walking with Chris toward the seat reserved.
Going near Sage, Ain arrived critical of the start of the duel because he was about to hear a loud word coming from his mouth.
Just tell him to walk away, Sage turns his irritated face to Ain, but Ain't care about it at all. And Ain finally got to his reserved seat. I'm relieved that there's no trouble exchanging what's in my mouth before the fight.
Seeing Ain and Chris in their seats, Sage's prepared servant rings the signal for initiation. The duel began with the sound of that loud bell.
Take that as a signal, both demons were supposed to be allowed to move...
"Hey, Mr. Chris. Whatever."
What Ein sees is the surface of the river… something strange emerges on the surface of the water. It moves as if it were a blood vessel and starts to creep the river complicated.
That appearance just floated on stage, and neither the two Kraken nor the Sea Dragon twins could move off the spot as well.
"… Ishtarika's battleship is the hardest, the main skill of the sea dragon."
"Oh, that's the skill...? That pattern...?
When Chris says he's had a hard time, he feels more real than anyone else says it. Instead, without this skill, we might have come up with an operation that would allow the fleet to advance the battle to its advantage.
"" Current. "Whatever you do now, Kraken has no chance of winning."
Kraken was unable to take one physical move, as if he were being squashed by something. It appeared in Ain's eyes as though he was in the water, but crushed by the water.
"But it's easy to understand it's a calm place like a river. I couldn't see that far at sea."
Seeing Kraken, who was no longer able to move, the twins were delighted to raise their voice of queer and joy, intertwining their bodies. But this is just a trigger. It was from here, from here onwards a unilateral battle by the twins will be curtained.
"What are you doing, Kraken! Whoa! I'm not just playing around!
From nearby seats, Sage's fury echoed. But even if the owner were to deliver that word, Kraken's situation remained unchanged. Rather, a pattern like a blood vessel floating on the water begins to surround Kraken by increasing its number.
"Probably two sea dragons crusaded last year. On a higher level than them, the twins may be using the currents."
The twins look adorable, but changing their language would mean a hungry sea dragon. That just seems dangerous if you think about it this way.
—— Finally, a demon-remodeled and stained meal, administered by Katima... the result of eating away demon stones. The results will be presented to Ain and the others.
