- Chapter 66 : Field Trip [Final Part]
The next morning, after tidying up properly, the field trip was concluded with Nois-sensei’s farewell.
“Everyone, with this, the extracurricular activities come to an end. There were various troubles, but I’m honestly relieved that it ended without any casualties. Fortunately or unfortunately, it must have been a good experience for all of you. Demons don’t understand our circumstances. We don’t know when or where they will appear and attack us. Keep that in mind and continue to strive in the future.”
“Yes!!!”
“That’s a good response. Well then, let’s stay alert until we safely reach the capital.”
With those words, the group disbanded, and one by one, they left the fortress.
In the midst of this, the four of us were waiting as we had been informed priorly to stay until the end.
“What’s going on? Thor, do you know?”
“No, I have no idea.”
“I don’t know either.”
“Me neither… Oh, it looks like soldiers are coming?”
As Merle-san said, soldiers came out of the fortress and lined up in front of us. Then, them Captain of this squad came forward and said,
“Everyone, salute the young heroes!”
“Yes!!!”
“You were supposed to be protected, but you assisted us! Thanks to you all, we were able to survive without losing a single soldier — thank you very much!”
““Thank you very much!!””
…I see, so this was the reason why we were left behind.
After a few minutes, the gaze of soldiers was directed at me.
It seems like they want me to respond.
“No, please don’t worry about it. It may sound cheeky, but soldiers are also important to be protected for the royal family. Let’s cooperate and support each other.”
“What… You heard that! From now on, we should continue to train and become strong!”
“Yes!!!”
“Thank you for your cooperation. Well then, we will take our leave.”
They saluted again, and the soldiers returned to the fortress.
Taking advantage of that timing, Nois-sensei came over sneakily.
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”
“N-no, I was a little surprised.”
“I really wanted to express my gratitude. Of course, I do too… Thank you very much.”
“It’s okay. If we’re praised too much, we won’t know how to react.”
“Haha, that part of you is also similar to Sigurd.”
“Ugh… I don’t like being compared to him.”
“Hoho, he said exactly the same thing. Well then, shall we go?”
And so, we also left the fortress and headed to the capital city.
[PoV Change] Sigurd :
…It seems like the field trip has ended safely.
After hearing the reports from the soldiers, we were finally feeling at ease.
“Well then, I’ll take my leave!”
“Yes, you’ve worked hard.”
After the soldiers who conveyed the reports left, only the king and I remained.
“Lord Sigurd, that went well.”
“Hmph, I wasn’t particularly worried.”
“Oh, who do you think was irritated all this time? The chairs in this room were built with quite sturdy materials but now that we see their current condition…”
At the end of his gaze were the chairs that I had accidentally destroyed with momentum. The news that was relayed to us about Alex’s location being attacked by demonic beings, and we were eagerly waiting for the report during that time.
“Argh…”
“It’s no use complaining, you wouldn’t have been able to reach that place on time, even if you went alone.”
“So noisy, cheeky brat.”
“In this kingdom, you’re the only one who can talk to me that way…”
Of course, I restrained myself when there were other vassals around. However, at the moment, there’s only him and me, so there is no use of controlling my thoughts.
“What is it? Should I start using honorifics and address you as ‘Your Majesty’ from now on?”
“Please spare me, it’s actually scary when I think of it.”
“Hmph, fine then. So, what are your plans for this blunder?”
“Well, it’s a bit… I must say, it’s troublesome. And I felt underestimated as well. Probably, the second queen’s relatives are involved in the matter with the knight order.”
“As expected, huh?”
After all, the place where this extracurricular trip was being concluded was not only being visited by the princess and the second prince but also the children of various noble houses. It was only natural to investigate the vicinity in advance. It seems that their faction neglected this on purpose.
“Yes, there’s no confirmation, but that’s why it’s difficult to blame us too. Scolding the soldiers is easy. However, catching their tails is another matter. Really, the Caladborg Count’s family did something daring this time…”
“Well, it can’t be helped. Despite being a count, they belong to a long-standing lineage. They have a wide network and strong influence.”
“But we can’t just do nothing, right? Otherwise, I might have to intervene.”
After all, my dear son is being targeted. Maria at home seems on the verge of tears out of worry.
“Yes, I understand. We’ll take the appropriate measures. So, shall we make Alex a hero?”
“Oh? What do you plan to do?”
“By the way, is it okay to use Alex as bait? Well, it also means provocation.”
“Hmm… Well, this could be his trial. Alright, do as you please. The current Alex should be fine to handle it.”
“Well then, let’s discuss how we should proceed…”
“Hmm-hmm… That’s interesting.”
Having heard enough of the conversation, I approved it.
Alex, you did well…
Now leave the rest to us.
