140 Episode 140 "What the Magic Sword and" The Princess Who Didn't Have "found was a coat of arms that I didn't want to get involved with.".txt

Thank you for your help. It's just tea and a rice ball.

Cutlass offered me a tube of tea and a round one wrapped in a cloth.

I know what tea is, but ...... now, Cutlass, what did you say?

Didn't you say "Onigiri"?

Yes. This is what Aine had asked Iris to prepare in advance!

Cutlass laughed at that.

When he opened the wrapping, ...... it was indeed a pure white rice ball.

I'm sure you've heard from Arujidono that this was created by Aine, Iris and Rafilia after several hours of 'Onigiri Reenactment Meeting' based on her story of the 'original world'.

'You don't have to go that far. I mean, if you want to know about 'Onigiri', ask me!

"'I wanted to surprise my master,' he says.

Cutlass chuckles with a gentle look in his eyes, as if he's remembering that moment.

"And I've heard that discussing what you should do to make your master happy is the most enjoyable thing for everyone. That's why Aineidono looked so happy when she gave me this.

...... I have to thank my sister (Aine) when I get home.

Onigiri are triangular in shape. The shape is so beautiful, even the shape is made by Aine.

I'm sure it will taste ....... It's delicious.

It's the first onigiri I've had in a while, and the taste of it will permeate your body every time you bite into it. All it takes is a little bit of salt to make it taste good.

It's so good! It's so nostalgic. I wish I could share it with everyone.

Here's a postscript from Aine. The same goes for Iris and Rafilia's lunchboxes, too. We're in the middle of the 'Taste of Naya's Hometown Tour' today! Yes, sir!

You're really having a good time with your life, sister!

There's one for me, too! Haha. Hmmm. Is this the taste of the world of Arujido?

Humming. Muguugu.

Me and Cutlass silently continue to eat onigiri, otherworldly style, in silence.

Cecil and Rita are asleep in my lap as I sit upright. I'll let them eat the onigiri when they wake up. My head is a little sore from the daze, but it will go away after a while.

I feel like I'm on a hike.

Yes, sir.

So long.

We are at the top of a rocky mountain.

The sky is lightly cloudy, but there's no wind. The view is nice and it looks like we're really hiking.

Cutlass says, "Seeing all these happy people makes me happy too! And he's laughing.

Before I know it, Reggie has turned into a handful of human shapes and is exercising on my shoulder. I'm the only one who can't eat an 'onigiri' (rice ball), so he's bored.

We're almost done for the day. Good job, Cutlass and Reggie!

It was surprisingly hard to get here, too.

Anyway, I'm glad that the undead are safely taken care of. Also, there's ...... something left to do: ...... I shouldn't have left anything else to do. It's hard to remember because I spent so much time thinking about the Crossing of Powers. I think I'm going to have to do some research.

'I'll ask Shiloh's "Rebi-Techo" to take you home, OK, and the Letitia welcome party will be ...... carried over to tomorrow or later, so no problem. All we have to do is ...... one more thing?

I could take it easy until the evening, but I'd have to do ...... first to get settled in.

I'll let you two do a little bit of work for me.

"Reggie, Fynn (・・・・), can you do some reconnaissance?

I said.

"All right!　This is my moment!　Because we didn't have anything to do this time!

'No, ......, didn't you see the message Leggy made up earlier floating around with a flourish?'

It's not the same thing. ...... I'd like to see my activities in a different light, like this: ...... It's a little bit more like .......

The palm-sized Leggy is making circles with her index finger and thumb in front of me, sticking them on and off. I can't explain it well, but she seems to have her own obsession with it.

'Do you think Cutlass could make a scouting body for Fynn, too?

It's OK. It's the size of the palm of your hand, isn't it?

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

I'm sure you can handle that much magic. It's a good idea to create a body. Come on, Feen!

Cutlass closed his eyes and murmured──The Armor of Balal shone.

Silver particles were born in the air and gathered together──they changed into the form of a fynn.

The size is the same as Reggie's, about 20 centimeters tall. He has gray hair and wears white clothes. The color of her eyes is purple. She picks up the over-decorated dress made of magic and bows to me.

My beloved one. I am honored to be summoned by you. Fyn-Mutran. I have come here.

Sorry to put you through the wringer, Fynn.

No, you have it backwards, Yuji.

Fiennes sat on my shoulder - the opposite side of Leggy's - and whispered in my ear.

"I would hate to not have you give me an order,

Thank you. That's great. But don't make me plump my earlobe as you talk.

Why don't you just pluck my earlobes instead?

If you pinch the ears of a fynn of your size, you'll crush them.

Couldn't you just plump Cutlass's earlobes instead?

That sounds like fun, so I'll see you after dinner.

'Hmm. Well, I'll look forward to it.

I'd like to pluck my knight's earlobes, too.

Yes, Leggy. Be my guest.

Hmm. I think we're going to be good friends. The princess who never wore anything!

Unanimous agreement.

Fynn and Leggy, who have hit it off, hold their stomachs and start laughing.

What do you mean, Fynn!　Aruji and Reggie, too!

Cutlass was laughing and angry when he was offered his earlobe without permission, though.

'More importantly, Fynn!　You do have your underwear on, don't you!

Of course.

Fynn pinched the hem of her dress up to her stomach.

'How could you possibly do such a trivial thing as not wearing underwear in the presence of anyone other than Aruji?　What are you talking about, Cutlass, you're embarrassing yourself. You're in trouble.

I don't want to hear from Fynn!

Well then, Mr. Reggie, shall we go?

The palm-sized Fynn kicks me in the shoulder with a thump.

Leggy, who was on the other shoulder, jumps up with Fynn.

Fynn and Leggy. The lost princess and the aged magic sword. For some reason they seemed to have the same taste in things, they held hands and floated up into the air.

Fynn and Leggy's bodies are temporary ones made of magic power.

Fynn can't get far away from the cutlass and Leggy can't get far away from the main body of the magic sword, but at this small size, their bodies can be lifted into the air.

As it was, the two of them slid out of the edge of the rocky mountain into the unsupported air.

From there, they should be able to see all the way down the street.

''Lord. The blue-haired girls are now safely on the road. They've just passed under us.

'The merchants' caravan seems to be moving along just fine. The adventurers are loading their wounded comrades into wagons.

Reggie and Fynn will each report back to me.

That's good. It's a big assumption that Letitia is safe, and the damage to the adventurers doesn't seem to be too bad. We're in the same industry, so I was worried about them. The Adventurer's Guild could be in need of your help again.

''The nobles' carriage is ...... ah, don't go back.

You seem to be afraid to go on like this, even with the undead gone.

That's helpful.

It must be a shame for the Lord of Irgapha, but we don't want to get involved with the nobility.

You can't blame the people involved in the "White Guild" for not meeting them, either.

You're going to be able to find out more about this. One ...... large carriage is coming down the street.

...... fynn?

Fynn's (himself) voice, which suddenly takes on a hard tone, causes Cutlass to look at him in wonder.

Leggy is supporting the doll-sized Fynn, whose fists are clenched in the air. Leggy's red twin-tails sway in the wind and he nods incessantly.

'What's going on?'

It's The Swirling Emblem of Light. My Lord, the chariot with that emblem on it is coming toward us. There's a chariot with that emblem on it coming toward us.

Reggie tells me instead of Fynn.

Hearing this, Cutlass takes out a copper-colored coin from his wallet. There is the figure of a girl wearing a crown on it. On the reverse side, there is also apparently a simplified coat of arms engraved.

''That's a coat of arms that represents a princess of royal blood.

In a firm tone, Fynn said.

The Princess of the current king's blood is riding in a carriage bound for the port city of Irgafa. What shall I do? It is unusual for a member of the royal family to attend a party for the lord's farewell party, but ...... if you don't mind, I and Cutlass will sneak up on you and see if we can find out more ......?

Don't work too hard. Fynn.

Yes, it was.

We're just here to see our best friend, and everything else is incidental.

But be careful.

I'm going to tell Iris about this in the mind linkage, and Letitia is going to go a little further and ask her to meet up with Aine, as if we'd met by "coincidence".

We should rest some more.

We have some things to think about if the royal family's officials are coming.

Alright, sir. I have discovered something.

The palm of my hand, Fynn is back on my shoulder.

Shuddering, he slumps his shoulders, as if begging for forgiveness.

'When I am wearing ...... underwear in front of a certain someone, bad things happen. I will reflect on that. Please spank me. I'm the size, so use the cutlass. Give her a spanking that will make her feel like she's a proper girl.

Hey, Finn!　People's bodies on their own ......

Cutlass raised his voice again.

But that voice is a butt-ugly voice.

Because Fynn was sitting on my shoulder, looking kind of shabby.

It was a look I'd never seen on his face before.

"You okay, Fynn?

Instead of plucking at her earlobe, I nudged her head with my index finger.

'That's very sweet of you. 'Arujidono,'

Then Fynn closed his eyes, tickled.

'It's okay. I'm fine. I'm fine. ......

Fynn smiled gently and rubbed his cheek against my fingers.
