252 Episode 172: Arrival on the Road and the First City

We arrived in the Crimson Empire after a trip to the Advanced Chamber of Commerce super luxury carriage.

"I miss you. Have you been out of the Crimson Empire for over three years now?"

"It's been almost four years. Master Rouge has changed a lot."

"I hope it's changed for the better."

The companions are from eight crimson empires, including Rouge and Minerva.

It should be noted that the carriage is ridden by the main party, Rouge and Minerva for the upscale in two cars, while the other six are in the other carriage. Your carriage drops a step in rank.

I didn't feel like running a trick carriage from Estea Kingdom on a boulder.

So he took the route closest to the Crimson Empire, a day east of King Narunka's capital of the Union of Ato Nations (fully controlled), to the Crimson Empire.

If that bothered me, I could have entered the empire from somewhere a little closer...

"It's close as a distance, isn't it? Your husband didn't go hard enough."

"The maids of the Advanced Chamber of Commerce will not enter the Crimson Empire at your husband's behest."

The map of is currently visible up to the area and 3 adjacent areas.

Getting too close to the Crimson Empire can be a rattle, he has instructed his Advanced Chamber of Commerce maids not to get too close to the eastern part of the Kingdom of Narnka.

"There's no reason for them to do anything that would deprive Jen of his pleasure. … to be honest, I would like to make sure that Jen's destination is thoroughly checked in order to avoid danger"

She always thinks Maria + Maid is swayed by her desire to keep me safe and protect my fun.

"For that matter, we will do everything we can to protect Jen."

And the final conclusion settles there.

Maria's over-interference is the last thing she wants to do to keep me out of danger.

... I appreciate the feeling, I appreciate the feeling, but it's annoying sometimes. Yeah......

"The Great Spirit (Rain) and the Initial Divine Dragon (El) are bringing, and the escort Mr. Tamo is stuck. If you can't get this far, there's nothing you can do about it."

I don't know from the looks of it, but I'm totally defensive right now.

I can always put you in 'spiritualization' with Rain, and El and Tamo will automatically defend you (autoguard) when you have to.

L: Good luck!

I don't see it, I don't say anything, but I feel that Rayne is motivated, too.

"Defend"

With that said, Mr. Tamo, you've got a lot of fluency to talk about, haven't you?

Good luck.

Oops, fluent answers.

Is that the result of all the absorption? People aren't absorbing it, are they?

A: I didn't.

Good then.

"For once, we are the ones to be escorted..."

Rouge is right. We're escorting Rouge and the others home for a while.

He's a more defensive escort than he is.

"You have no choice. We've been overprotective ever since we fought the Disaster Dragon alone."

"Thank you for listening to our wishes."

As far as I'm concerned, I don't think I need to protect you so much.

But Maria and her maids are even more sensitive than usual because she risked saying she would fight alone in the battle against the disastrous dragon some time ago.

I decided to accept the plea of Maria and the maids. No, you can't turn it down if more than 100 people come to the boulder and ask for it in the dust.

The dungeons of the maids lined up in the great halls of Sky Castle were amazing.

"Nor do I, the boulder, consider myself a more important person than Jen. I understand that."

"For once, Master Rouge is royal, too."

"Minerva, what is it for once? For once."

Rouge seems to be royal at first sight.

"Didn't soldiers at the border notice you because you wouldn't go out of the king's capital"

"Don't say that..."

Rouge gives it away.

In fact, Rouge showed his face to the soldiers as he crossed the border between the Kingdom of Narunka and the Crimson Empire.

He thought if the royal family showed their faces, the conversation would go smoothly. But the soldier tilted his neck and said,? 'I put out the mark.

Rouge made a bad habit of saying 'you countryman,' but he looked like Minerva said 'I knew it,' so I guess it's unknown and natural.

"Well, I got the early horses out, and there won't be a problem"

I eventually showed my ID and found out Rouge was royal and the soldier's response changed.

This time, it's a sudden homecoming, so I'm asking the soldiers to give me a hint at Scarlett.

"But could I have told my brother that we were going home? The presence of Jen and the others will be passed on to your brother?

"No problem. I'm not Gene this time."

Anyway, if you're acting (lol) as a queen knight Gene, I'm just Jin Tang Jen right now.

I'm not hiding who I am, and I have no particular reason to sneak up on you.

"Originally, there was no ground to act in this world, so there were aspects of hiding who they were or limiting their noticeable actions."

"Huh? Husband, were you restricting me with that?

"You hid who you were, but you didn't seem to be limiting your actions."

Mio and Serra are stunned.

Sounds like you have an opinion to say that.

"Now that we have some stable ground, and things are changing for the most part, maybe we could stand out a little more. Stand out or get fame..."

"I mean the ground, a lot of countries are under your husband's control, right? It's the same in the sense that I'm stepping on it..."

Mio, you say good things.

But just because you keep the royalty under control, you're not forcing the country to do something, so safe (mystery theory).

"The top of the country is the country of distribution, the country of economic dominance, the country of control over the backbone of the country, the country of dominance. It's better than..."

As a supplement, my maps are also treated as' current locations' where they are distributed.

In other words, I can also check the information on the land where the maid is treated as' current location '. And the maids are sent to countries around the world.

More than half of them are under my control.

"I can't publicly rule over boulders, but after I stand out for other reasons, maybe I can even reveal who Gene is. Of course, the way you find out you're not dressed is NG."

It's not so bad to be revealed that Gene and Jen were actually the same people after my personal name was sold and I gained fame.

"... at a time when the name 'Jen' is starting to sell, you think they'll suspect it's related to 'Gene'?

"Mio! Why!?

"Because the names are alike."

"Oh!?

Hate mistake!

It's ok to say it from me, but I'm NG because I'm not dressed to be presumed to find out.

But just because Jen becomes famous, he suspects his relationship with Gene, who is already famous. Because the names are alike!

... I should have kept it an elaborate pseudonym.

"Jin Tang Jen, I wonder if the major debut project is frozen...... When the relationship between Jen and Gene was revealed, I could ride Love Dragon (Blue) without asking anyone..."

Sky Dragon (Blue), who is also a dragon rider, has left a message.

I can't ride Blue, the dragon rider of 'Gene' when acting as' Jen '.

It doesn't look good to find out who you are with the same vehicle. It's like a voice actor finding out the same person.

"Blue, I was going to miss you..."

Hey, hey, hey.

Sakura and Dora say they were watching Blue.

"I rode around before I left, so I should be in a better mood"

Of course, I follow up.

I circled around the invisible Sky Castle. Guru, guru...

"That was good......"

Sweet on the blue, mister.

Dora is petite jealous, so she puts it on her knees and strokes it.

Eh heh.

I'm in a good mood, Dora.

It's easier to fix a mood than blue.

"Not now, but not as an escort."

"It really is now. Dear Rouge,"

Almost unarmed, a boy with a toddler on his lap and a stroke.

Would that look like an escort? No, I don't see it.

That's a little bit of a carriage ride around the Crimson Empire.

"But no demons at all."

"That's right if you ask me... Only a few can be found on the map too......"

Pick up my whine, Sakura looks at the map too, but it looks like I only found a few.

Ask for a reason and see Rouge.

"Um, in the Crimson Empire, the Imperial Army regularly carries out demonic sweeps. The damage caused by demons is obviously lower than in the surrounding countries."

"Is the army sweeping the demons? What happened to the adventurer?

"The Adventurer Guild is not in this country. It is not a good idea to use unstable forces of war due to the policies set by the First King. He said the policing of the state should be carried out by people belonging to the state."

In response to my question, Rouge answered confidently.

"What a surprise."

"I guess so. We pride ourselves on an unparalleled policy."

"No, there is, but Rouge can explain his country."

No way, I didn't expect an answer back in earnest.

After all, I thought it was something that would transfer the right of reply to Minerva.

"Wait! How does Jen look at me!?

"Son of an asshole. You couldn't even use a salutation at first, could you?

"Ugh!

Immediately after subordinating him, Rouge was too busy to use his salutation.

Now I'm allowed not to be respectful, but I think I can use respectful language.

"Your husband's assessment of Mr. Rouge is painful"

"I'd like to follow up, but there are some parts I can't help"

Minerva agrees with Mio.

"You still have enough education as a royal."

"Really?

Don't ask Rouge, ask Minerva for confirmation.

"Yes, Master Rouge is not retarded. Instead, we even hear he was an excellent student when it comes to geography and history.

"Heh..."

"Could you not look at something so unexpected?

No, really surprising.

Because it was underrated from the first impression. I don't have a choice.

"So what's common sense?

When I asked, Minerva shook his head silently beside him.

"Master Rouge, basically because I'm not going out of the castle. You can study and train in the castle."

"I can't deny that, but if it means domestic circumstances, I'm confident."

Apparently Rouge has always been the pull of an imperial castle.

I feel confident if I know it in my papers.

"Crimson Empire, common sense lady, isn't that a lot?

"... Oh, Jen is my niece... you've also met Strawberry"

Strawberry, Rouge's niece, also had no common sense.

"It is famous to say to the princess of the Crimson Empire that there is a lot of one-point breakthrough common sense. Common sense is the standard when you say that someone with you can handle it."

"It's a very wild country."

I mean, he says he's giving up on making people remember common sense...

"Some nieces are immersed in research and barely come out of the room, and some like demons but there are no demons in the country, and they ran off for it. There are a few of them who followed him."

Scarlet family, that's a lot of delightful princesses.

"Except in the case of the princess, the Crimson Empire has a variety of unique characteristics. One theory also says that a brave man was involved in the founding of the country."

"Another brave man... I don't think there's a brave man involved in this world."

"Either way, aren't brave men too influential? You say there's too much left..."

As Mio says, I also feel it is more right to say 'the influence of the brave is strong and continues to linger' than to say 'the brave are involved'.

"I've been through this a couple of times, but there's a" brave man's right "kind of trend."

I think it's wrong to expect 'correctness' from just a high school student...

"That's the basic idea of Goddess. For once, my country forbids the practice of goddess"

"Even though there are brave men involved in the founding of the country?

A brave man rejects a goddess? Is that possible?

Oh, the ex-brainers of the Kingdom of Sanokia, there was Weihara. There seems to be an exception.

"The reasons around it are unknown, but basically the policy of this country has been 'self-reliance' since the first generation. Don't rely too much on something. Food self-sufficiency is 100%, and we don't rely on the uncertain power to say adventurer. I can live in this country alone."

I don't know what to say, I think the Crimson Empire is a 'tough' country in many ways.

I don't feel the 'brittleness' that I've often felt since I came to this world. The same goes for systems and human resources.

Speaking of talent, even soldiers at the border had the strength of an elite soldier class in another country.

"What you're saying is splendid, but its splendid content doesn't apply to you (Rouge). In the Labyrinth, we were forced to push items and follow seven people..."

…………

Rouge that turns a blind eye, and Minerva.

"With that said, only one maid had strawberry."

It should have been a trip for two princesses and maids.

"I don't think that maid is comparable to the 7 Minervas, and if the number is increasing according to the Lord's shortage..."

"No more..., no more... I've already changed my mind..."

Rouge gibbered up.

It may have been a little too much, but it's true that the old Rouge was terrible.

However, as he says, Rouge has been pretty straightforward these days.

This is also a gift of Alta's tutoring (today). Rouge is now a loyal bitch too.... straight?

A: Do you plant art like Fifty Storms, one of your former brave men?

No, I don't want that.

The bitch is a metaphor, and she's not going to use Rouge as a pet frame.

"It's time not to arrive in the first city"

Rouge prompted me to look at the map and it looks like we'll be in the first city in about 10 minutes.

It's time for the sun to start setting. It's good to be there before sundown.

"Say hello to the first city description"

"Hmm, right. Sometimes it's called a city near the border, and there are a lot of people in other countries."

"That's normal, right?

When Mio hears, Rouge nods and continues.

"That's true, but there's another side to it in my country. In the Crimson Empire it is rated, including civilians, and will be so superior as to be close to the center… Empire City. It is difficult for the inferior to enter the upper city, as is the other country. If you say so, people from other countries are in the outer city because they can't get close to the center."

"... other countries are too free to go in and out in the first place."

I always thought the security of countries in this world was a problem.

"Just the credentials of an adventurer makes it easy to get in and out of the capital."

"Because we don't treat adventurers in our country, we can't even say we're going to get close to the center because of our high ranks."

"I haven't benefited from the Adventurer Alliance, so there's no reason to give it preferential treatment. That makes sense."

Serra is convinced of Minerva's supplement.

"Simply put, it's the city with the most spies from other countries. I think if you stand out here, you'll find out from another country. … there are other countries that may be under Jen's control."

What's the percentage?

A: About 10%.

"Sounds like about 10% of them come from countries under my control."

"Can the map even tell that..."

"I couldn't do it at first."

If you use Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) for, you can now get more detailed information than before, so you can see it at a glance if it's about the country you belong to.

However, I don't usually display information that is so important that I don't see it.

"I don't care, but they don't fight intelligence between countries under your husband's control. You can get as much information about your country as you want via your husband's mansion, and in the first place, your husband's distribution is closer than a bad ally."

"That would be awesome..."

Mio's irrelevant capture.

"At a time when I'm acting with Rouge, it won't be possible to say it's inconspicuous in the country, and let's not worry too much"

"For once, you're royal. Well, that's remarkable."

"Once..."

Rouge damaged by Mio's casual words.

The policy is "enjoy" > > > "discreet".

It would be a loss if you were too unconscious to enjoy the sightseeing around the corner.

If it stood out, I wouldn't stand out personally because I have a lightning rod (Rouge).

That's why I arrived in the city.

The name of the city is' City of the Standing Plate '.... What about red?!?

It's no stranger to have a color in the name of the city than the name of the country has a color on it.

But I didn't think it was a color unrelated to the country name.

It's just a city close to the border, and it's pretty big.

It is a city of tens of thousands of people protected by solid walls.

Doesn't seem like saying you're not prosperous just because your character is the city below.

Residents have a relatively large number of humans, but there are also other races, such as beasts and half elves.

From what I've seen, there doesn't seem to be a lot of discrimination by race.

Our carriage is headed to the VIP gate.

There are gates for ordinary people in remote areas, but obviously they are not built.

"Ko, what about this certificate!?

I heard a voice while Minerva was dealing with soldiers outside the carriage.

Why is Minerva cottoning like a temple......

And then I'm led into the 'City of the Standing Plate' by soldiers who did and went low profile.

We leave the carriage at the VIP Depository near the gate, and finally we go outside.

"Well, that's a quick sightseeing"

"Naturally, I will also serve Jen"

"Neither your husband nor Maria will really brace you."

"Jen, it's you..."

So...

"I'm used to boulders. I hope the food tastes good."

"Shimmer!

"You don't brace this one either. Well, I'm interested in cooking for the Crimson Empire too."

In a way, Mio can also be said to always be the same.

It is the face of a main party that has completely become a tourist mode.

"We say hello to the lord of the city, so it's a different move."

"You'll excuse me here. Sightseeing, have fun."

Rouge and Minerva, I hear the six of you are going to greet the lords of this city.

They're not going to go to greeting anyone more than they used a VIP certificate.

I almost forget it often, but Rouge is great, isn't it?

"Oh, let me do that."

Rouge and I broke up and we went sightseeing.

"In the meantime, it's rice"

Oh, my God!

"I've been waiting for that!

No one knows about this city, and I don't have any tipping information, so I'll take Alta's advice. I asked you, Alta.

A: I'll take care of it. We will extract all the restaurants in this city from the map and display 5 recommended stores selected according to criteria consisting of 15 items, including culinary trends, number of guests, safety and cleanliness.

Yeah, as usual, Alta's job is perfect.

I look at the Alta Suggested Stores displayed on the map and nod satisfied.

"This city, or the main dish of the Crimson Empire, looks like Chinese food."

"Right. If you say so, you haven't seen much of it before."

The culinary tendency of the Crimson Empire, it was' Chinese '.

Technically, there are a lot of 'things that name Chinese food that are commonly found in Japan'. I don't know what real people think.

"This is gonna sound like an arm. Mio, I thought about my health in the previous world and barely ate Chinese food with a lot of dark flavor...... you only know the recipe for common stuff because you didn't make it. It's a good opportunity to remember."

"I'll take care of it."

Hang in there!

When I'm in this world, I almost forget, but they say Mio was originally sick and weak.

Even after I became somewhat healthy, I would have thought about my body and refrained from cooking with a strong flavour.

"I just remembered that Rouge used to wear a chinese dress"

That's a tea party that brings together royal women, and I've worn dresses that resemble Chinese dresses when I say crimson imperial tradition dresses.

"Could it be a brave man?

"Oh, a brave man"

"I knew it."

The brave man told me a long time ago, but there's no way he hasn't kept his mouth shut on "clothes" and his mouth shut on "food." I don't know if he's the same person, but they have a Chinese taste in the Crimson Empire.

By the way, 'dwelling', buildings have a lot of common Western-style objects.

"As I thought before, it's only Chinese style (...), and it sounds Japanese to me that I told it"

"Somehow... there's no real atmosphere..."

"I've never been to the real world, but you know what your husband and Sakura are trying to say."

Sakura, Mio seems to have the same sentiment.

"... why do brave men summon from Japan?

Most of the brave men summoned so far are supposedly Japanese.

There are no trajectories at all that the foreigners seem to have left behind.

In the first place, it's the official language of this world, Japanese...

"Maybe there's a reason."

I don't know who to ask why.

If you ask the goddess, I'd like to hear it.

"Well, now I can't help thinking about it. Shall we finish the story and get back to dinner? Mio, choose one of Alta's recommendations."

"Yes."

Myochoice from Alta Choice.

There has never been a hassle in the shops chosen like this. Impossible.

One Chinese restaurant that came in that way. It's a relatively upscale shop, so it doesn't seem to be full.

Reminds me of Chinatown I've been to before.

"There you are, Al."

It is a word of a woman who serves in a simple chinese dress.

"Seriously..."

It smelled more and more patchy.

Even though it's a luxury Chinese (wind) restaurant in the corner......

It's definitely the brave ones' fault. Moreover, it is 100% Japanese.

It's okay, the tone of the clerk doesn't make the food taste bad.

Yes, I had a strong heart.

In the meantime, ask for the dish you are interested in on a large plate from one end.

Luckily, I'm not in trouble with the money, and I don't have to worry about leaving Serra and Dora to eat.

It's not a very complimentary act, but in the worst case, there is also < infinite storage (inventory) >.

"Yeah, it's delicious"

Mogmog and (Maria) eat the fried rice split into small plates and whine.

Likewise, the baking (Maria) divided into small plates is delicious.

Alta, only Mio's chosen shop and, naturally, the food was delicious.

I also ordered baked rolls, spring rolls and dumplings on a large plate, so I can eat at least one at a time. If you like it, take more and add more if it's not enough.

"Fried rice on a large plate!

At the Grand Festival!

"Every time Aru (that kid, what are you talking about?

This is already the second time it has been replaced, especially with a delicious specialty filled fried rice.

Mostly in Serra and Dora's stomach...

"I'm already full..."

"Mio ate a whole lot, too, okay?"

Sakura from the snack set, Mio eats almond tofu as a post-meal dessert.

It is a Japanese Chinese restaurant, by the way.

"Maria, are you eating right?

"Yes, I'm sewing in between and eating"

Maria was working on splitting my share of the dish into small plates.

... because I didn't ask for it.

And when the fourth replacement fried rice was emptied.

"I'm satisfied!

Mampu! Dessert is Bezuru!

Satisfied Serra and Dora also eat almond tofu.

"I guess I ate too much"

It was delicious, and I've said it's been a long time since Chinese food, and I may have eaten a little too much.

"Mio ate a little too much, too. But now you know the whole recipe."

"Well, can we even eat at the mansion?

"Yeah, at least we can reproduce it."

"Okay. Well done, Mio"

Enjoy your first dish in a long time and get more Mio repertoire.

It is usual for a brave man to be on track, and there are some problems, but he is gaining as a result, so he can't even complain much.
