Chapter 64: I Could Enter Smoothly Without Having to Worry About a Sneak Attack
===A Certain Undead With Communication Disorder===
Ah, welcome back, Onee-chan, White Onii-chan!
After we left the city, we finally arrived back in one corner of the ruined city, the refuge of the slum children.
They were probably worrying nonstop since the female Holy Knight suddenly vanished for no reason.
I mean, Onee-chan suddenly vanished in the morning, and then so did Onii-chan!
Sorry to make you guys worry so much. As you can see, I'm safe and sound.
Hehehe, you two seem to be enjoying your time togethe~r.
W-What are you talking about? We're not doing anything!
The face of the female Holy Knight who got teased by the kids turned as red as a tomato.
Eh? Onii-chan, what do they mean by "enjoying your time together"?
Hahaha, it's s-e-c-r-e-t.
E~h, why~?
It's still too early for you.
Fine then! Since you don't want to tell me, I'm going to ask Onee-chan to tell me!
H-Hold on! Don't ask me! I mean, we really are not trying to hide something from you guys!
By the way, I heard their conversation from a slightly separated place.
The reason why the siblings were focused on the female Holy Knight was because they knew that they wouldn't get juicy news from someone with abysmal communication skills like me.
I felt conflicted since this was the first time I felt grateful for my lack of communication skills.
By the way, we're going to leave this place soon.
E~h? Noo! Please stay with us!
Hey, don't be unreasonable to them. They must have their own circumstances, you know.
The big brother then played the villain role by separating his little sister who was throwing a tantrum at the female Holy Knight.
U~h, then, promise me that you're going to visit us again!
Yes, I understand. We'll be back later for a visit.
You too, White Onii-chan!
I tried to nod silently, but then, I remembered that I might not be able to come again later.
I mean, I was on my way toward the Holy Country along with the female Holy Knight to purify myself.
Even without such a reason, it was literally impossible for a shy person like me to come specially to this city to meet these kids.
Thus, after finishing saying our parting goodbyes with the kids, we departed to the Romana Kingdom.
The Romana Kingdom seemed to be the name of the kingdom which I visited first, the one whose capital was assaulted by the Thunder Dragon Emperor.
We can find many ways to go to the Holy Country from the Romana Kingdom. Moreover
A disaster-class monster.
One wrong move from my side could result in that class being upgraded to a great disaster-class monster.
No no no, that was nonsense. Im a kind and friendly undead, you know?!
But like, when did I commit atrocities?
Upon thinking carefully, maybe because that necromancer hated me or simply because he wanted to spread chaos in this world, he told such a big fat lie on the verge of his death. And that ba*stards lie was the main reason for my current situation.
That fu*cking b*stard
Naturally, that's not the only reason Your own actions ended up backfiring on you Well, it's also your fault for intimidating the other party with that ominous smile of yours.
Is my smile really that horrible?
Did you forget that the Empress passed out because of that smile?
Urgh
She passed out, and her heart stopped beati Nope, the latter must just be my imagination.
Yeah, no doubt about it.
We finally arrived in front of the Castlegate as we had that kind of conversation.
It seemed you needed some sort of license to enter, but Did I have that kind of thing with me?
The female Holy Knight called out to the person in charge of checking visitors at the gate.
Your entrance permit.
Please confirm.
T-This permit Y-You may enter.
The attitude of the checker has turned around upon seeing the presented permit.
There was no need to check our luggage either. He stepped back to give way to us.
But as expected, he had no intention of letting me pass that easily just because I came with her.
M-My apologies, but what about your companion?
He's my slave.
I-I see.
Is something the matter?
N-No, not at all.
In the end, we passed the castle gate without a hitch or proper questioning.
As expected of the permit I got directly from the Hero King. He prepared this beforehand in case I brought you back with me to meet him again.
The female Holy Knight spoke with admiration.
Rather, it felt like she just said a really important name, but
Hero King?
Come to think of it, I have yet to tell you about this, huh. The one who wanted to meet you is the king of this kingdom.
EH?
