215 – Without windy days (2)

The square where the coronation ceremony ended.

Siron sat down on an empty bench. In his arms was a thick bag of bread. Perhaps because it had been brought in from the most popular bakery in Lien these days, the bag was not dull brown, but rather a sophisticated item with colorful initials.

“Oh my! You don’t have to buy me something like this!”

I said so, but latera’s mouth, who was sitting next to me, made a loud gurgle of saliva. Having taken the form of a child, her feet that do not touch the ground are swinging around as if to represent her excited mood.

“Hmm? Mmm! It’s so delicious!”

Whole fried donuts with strawberry jam, ham and cheese. A sweet and savory chord hidden in the crispy batter resonated on the small, chubby tongue.

Latera marveled at the little heaven embodied in her mouth, holding a donut in both hands and biting it alternately.

“Something is out of date.”

“…Yes? What is it?”

“No. It’s enough to eat deliciously.”

Siron turned his eyes from Latera to the imperial palace. It’s been an hour since Siriel entered the imperial palace without telling her to go first.

Siriel’s business took longer than expected, either because she had a lot to say to Viktor, who carried out the work as he pleased, or because the situation did not suit him.

However, that did not mean that Siron took the callous action of leaving first. Although I was told that I could go back first, isn’t he still my precious fiancé?

It was heartbreaking to have Latera caught up in the cold night wind, but contrary to Siron’s thoughts, Latera willingly refused to return to the mansion.

“…I have business, Um. Waiting for the companions is also good karma. Moreover, if the subject is your fiancé and you go back first, the Lord may have penalized the warrior.”

“Wipe the powder from your mouth and speak.”

“…That’s not something to say to a lady.”

Indigo Latera licked the powder off her fingertips and then rubbed her mouth.

“Um, um! Anyway, I think you made the right choice. Thanks to you, I got to eat such delicious food, and…”

Latera continued as she picked up a new donut.

“You were very embarrassed at the coronation ceremony a little while ago.”

“…”

“He didn’t show it, but his confused mind leaked out and I could tell even I was holding my hand.”

‘I thought I looked into my heart, but…’

Shiron loosened his fingers trying to squeeze the chestnut. At that subtle hand movement, Latera stuck out her tongue.

“These days, Kylie-sama, you haven’t had time to reflect on your thoughts like this because of training, right?”

Laterra swallowed the donut filled with sweet, white cream in one breath.

“Why don’t you share your worries with me right now? Sharing your worries cuts them in half, so let’s share a lot of opinions.”

“I’m sorry, but I also have my own fund.”

“…I read a book a while ago that said men with many secrets are attractive, but no matter how much I think about it, it seems like a lie. When I actually read it, it made me laugh, but now that I’ve experienced it myself, it’s just troublesome.”

“Do you read things like that?”

Siron crumpled the empty bag and aimed it at the trash can. It seemed difficult to put it in because the wind blew irregularly, but it went in without any problems, perhaps thanks to the accuracy that was raised to the limit.

“…did I tell you I could see the future?”

“Are you talking about Prien’s prophecy?”

“…okay.”

Stars shining brightly in the sky, ether shining faintly on the streets, etc.

It was an atmosphere to bring out the worries that had been hidden. In order not to miss the chance to lighten the hero’s burden as a guardian angel, Latera wiggled her little buttocks close.

“Do you believe in fate?”

“…Doesn’t it shrink too much from the beginning?”

“Oh my god. You won’t tell me?”

“I’ll shut up.”

Hap- Latera, whose cheeks were full, laughed mischievously.

Cough- Coughing Shiron regained his mood.

“The Imperial First Sword was originally supposed to be Lucia.”

“oh…”

“But what is this? Lucia left on her journey leaving behind only words that an adolescent child would say, and in the meantime, Siriel took over the title.”

“But isn’t it just a title? Lucia or Siriel… I don’t think it would matter which one of them gets it.”

Latera said it as if it was not a big deal, but when she looked into Siron’s mind, it seemed like he was worried.

“It may not be possible, but… the direction I wanted was for me to become the best sword of the empire.”

“Didn’t you just say that becoming Lucia was a preordained future? Then, I heard that the hero deliberately twisted the future…”

“Of course, how much effort did I put into this day?”

Siron sighed deeply. Before stepping forward as a warrior, I planned to gradually carry out external activities with the title of Imperial Swordsman. Unfortunately, this plan was not successful.

But I don’t get depressed. Although rescuing Latera was a representative achievement, there are times when things go astray like this. Since he knew that he was not a perfect human being, he knew that he would quickly lose his mind.

However, this did not mean that there were no worries.

“I have never been sure of the prophecy. Everything was distorted even before I held the holy sword.”

“Yes?”

Siron didn’t even look at Latera, who looked surprised. Because his mind was already filled with the existence of Yura, who changed a lot of history even before he was possessed.

“I knew at some point that the prophecy was useless, then what should I do next? Of course I will do my best to make it flow in the direction I want.”

Before knowing that Yura had come here, Shiron had tried many times.

In the past, there was something I tried to give Lucia a holy sword in advance, and what I did recently was to treat Yoru from dying so that he wouldn’t die after falling off a cliff, and to give thanks to him to quickly recover.

“To Lucia, ‘You, Kyleridge, why are you idling around like a warrior from the previous generation!’ “It’s the same thing as not doing it.”

“If you do that… Lucia-sama might try to hang herself.”

“…There’s that too, but from what I experienced, Lucia was more timid than I thought.”

Sometimes Lucia got scared.

This time, when I killed the 7 Apostles, I was able to overwhelm them, but at some point, the tip of Lucia’s sword wavered, so I had to immediately revise my plan to just get the last hit.

“It’s not like they’re trying to screw me over on purpose. It’s not easy, it’s not easy. It feels like someone is deliberately trying to sabotage me…”

The moment I felt lighter after sharing my worries.

Kugugugugugung-

A heavy sound entered my ears.

The people staying in the square could not hear. Only Siron, who had sensitive hearing, and Latera, who shared his emotions, turned their heads to the source of the vibration.

Siron, carrying Latera like a pack, hurriedly ran in that direction. Jumping is fast. The surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and people began to scream in my ears.

Kyaaah!

Wow!

From noble mtl dot com

In the place where I was busy, there was chaos with a cloudy dust storm and screams.

Siron used wind magic to clear away the stone dust. With one big swing of my arm, the dust gathered in one place and turned into a lump of rock.

“…her.”

What was revealed was the remains of a collapsed building. It must have been a fairly large building, so much so that the collapsed remains formed a small garden.

However, it was not the scale of the accident that made Siron sigh.

[Death to the Empire]

[Glory to those who are persecuted]

Red letters.

An old-fashioned slogan that clearly conveyed its meaning was the only thing left intact among the collapsed rubble. However, now was not the time for personal sentiments.

-Keueuuu

A moan just before death.

It was not the time to leisurely look around the site. Siron rolled up his sleeves and quickly began to dig up the wreckage.

Several heavy concrete blocks were lifted, and the people trapped between them escaped in droves.

It was a strong, yet delicate telekinesis.

A practical match that reveals the results of the magic that has been worked so hard. However, I feel uneasy when I check it in a place like this.

Latera also did not turn a blind eye to the piling up of Siron’s stores. She also did not stay still and used her small hands to move the injured and squeeze out divine power.

Beep beep beep!

While rescuing people, a sharp whistle sounded belatedly, and people in uniform rushed forward. They were police officers who responded after receiving a report.

-Keueoeook

-Gwae, are you okay?

A voice I have heard many times somewhere. Black hair came into the corner of his vision, but Siron did not pay attention to it and focused on the relief work.

*

My shoulders are light.

My forward steps are full of energy.

Perhaps because she revealed at least part of the secret, Lucia’s steps toward Lien were lighter than before.

It wasn’t like he was running around like a jerk, but he could walk straight, but it looked much better than when he was buried in the snow with heavy worries.

“Why is our lady in such a good mood?”

Encia followed behind Lucia, who was ahead. From Mount Macal, where the Castle of Dawn was located, Encia closely attended to Lucia even though she could go to the mansion first.

“Was your self-discovery journey successful?”

“…It’s not a success, but it’s not bad.”

Lucia said as she adjusted her large backpack.

“I would say that some of the old feelings were resolved. Although the ending was somewhat awkward, we did exchange proper greetings.”

“aha?”

Encia tilted her head with a puzzled expression. Unfortunately for her, only Yuma and Glenn currently know that Lucia is Kylie.

The conclusion is that revealing the fact will not only be of no help, but will actually encourage new risks. Lucia humbly decided to accept Yuma’s advice.

“But somehow there is a commotion right from the border. Is something going on?”

Lucia looked around and saw that people were busier than before she left.

“I don’t know? Isn’t there a festival going on? The streets are full of the smell of stale oil and vomit.”

“hmm…”

“Look, there are skewers thrown away carelessly on the side of the road. It looks like a whole roasted pig, but that’s not the kind of food you normally eat.”

Encia chattered while pointing at traces of the festival…

At some point, I kept my mouth shut.

Malice and confusion seeped into people’s hearts. The faint smell of blood remains. Although he was dozens of kilometers away, Encia was able to easily identify him thanks to his demonic characteristics.

“miss…”

“I know.”

Lucia also soon noticed something was wrong. As I was walking along the street, I suddenly saw a procession of carriages decorated with white flowers.

It’s true that Siron told me a while ago, but in this country, white flowers mean death.

“Write.”

It was a funeral, not a festival.

Lucia folded her hands and bowed her head toward the passing procession.

Tap-dag-dag-dak-

In the meantime, a carriage passes by. Lucia did not see Victor’s angry face.

Because I had to go see Siron quickly.
