Chapter 81

When I was talking with the Earl, the RV’s door opened up and Colette-chan stepped outside .

「Jeez, Mitsuha, what are you doing? You’re late! Let’s go quickly!」 (Colette)

It seems like she is in a slightly bad mood .

「Ah, sorry, just wait a little bit!

Um, It looks like my friend, who was already waiting for me, is already bored, so I will go now .

Oh, please use the communicator in case of emergency . We can still be contacted anytime while in the car . Other than that time, please keep the 『Power Switch』 down and turned off . If not, the 『divine power that had been received and stored from the sun』 will be lost and cannot be used when it is urgent . 」 (Mitsuha)

Yup, I went all the way to teach them how to use the communicator only for this purpose . If I was going to ride with them all the time, It wouldn’t have been necessary at all .

And when I accidentally looked at Sabine-chan .

There stood Sabine-chan whose face is wrapped in despair and wanting to cry while looking at the car and Colette-chan .

Ah~, sorry, Sabine-chan .

「What are you spacing out for? Quickly bring your belongings from the carriage, we’re going to leave you behind at this rate, you know?」 (Mitsuha)

Hearing my words, Sabine-chan’s face lit up instantly, rubbed her eyes and ran to the carriage .

My luggage is already loaded in the car in the first place, and the small compact one on the carriage is just a dummy . The contents are just stuffed with unnecessary items and things that can be throwed away .

「Wha…」 (Audyst)

Ah, the Earl is frozen again .

Well, that seems to be expected, huh . .

Not only me, but also the princess leaving your grasps . As one would expect, it will be upsetting…… .

However, in the first place, Sabine-chan wasn’t under Earl’s command .

It’s obvious . How come the princess has to be under the order of an Earl .

Therefore, Sabine-chan is also a 『Travel partner who is not a member, but instead, acting as a member of royalty who is only paying courtesy visits to the royalties in other kingdoms』 . Hence, the Earl has no rights to order her and couldn’t stop her at all .

In other words, even the chance to become close with the third princess, nonetheless a royal family, who is doted by the King himself, Her Highness Sabine, will be lost .

…that will really cause a turmoil, right…

Finally, Sabine-chan returned back immediately . Bringing not only her personal luggage which only consists of her change clothes… . She also brings my dummy luggage .

Ah~, of course she brings mine too, huh… Even though I don’t need it .

Well, even if I leave it in the carriage, It won’t be thrown away and will be regarded as a normal 『luggage』 . So bringing it might be the correct choice .

「Okay, go on board!」 (Mitsuha)

「Aye aye, mam!」 (Sabine)

Sabine-chan gave a playful salute while answering with words that she had learned and understood from a naval movie on the DVD .

In Japanese Self-Defense Force, you don’t need to salute when you don’t wear a cap . However, there are many places in foreign countries that still salute even if you don’t wear a cap . So she remembered that, huh…… .

Before the Earl returned to sanity and complained, everyone got on the front seat of the car . It’s a big car and only consists of petite girls, so it’s easy to sit with three people .

I had explained regarding Sabine-chan to Colette-chan in advance, but she still surprised .

However, she is, you know . . , Sabine-chan .

At first, she was surprised at the steering wheel, the lever from the driver’s seat, various gauges and so on, but she had seen the car itself on the DVD many times, so she adapted quickly .

… or rather, too quickly .

Let’s slowly introduce Colette-chan later . But first……

「Well then! Preparations OK! Mitsuha, departs~!」 (Mitsuha)

Though I say that, the speed is slow .

It’s very slow .

Looking at the car that has began to move, the Earl shouted and rushed back to the carriage in a panic . Since I had opened the window, I could hear the shouting .

「Let’s follow them! Time to depart! Hurry!」 (Audyst)

Yup, It’s good if they could .

Perhaps the Earl thinks that the power source for this car is not a horse but smaller animals, like wolves, deers, or boars and such which are connected in the car’s body and advance with that power .

Thus, they can follow us with their own carriages .

……sorry .

When the delegation’s carriages have also began to move behind the car, I stepped on the accelerator .

*Fuuoonn!*

Although I can’t see the faces of Earl and the others in the carriages, I could easily imagine their expressions .

Bye bye~, I’ll be waiting in the neighbor kingdom’s royal capital~!

And the members who were left behind in an instant, including the leader, Earl Covemainne, and the advisor, Caldebolt family’s son, Klarge, all stunned while seeing the leaving Mitsuha and Her Highness Princess Sabine off . It was the same face of what Mitsuha had imagined .

And Klarge finally realized .

Both Mitsuha and the one who also has a great influence like her, Her Highness Princess Sabine have left together .

From now on, even if he meets for several days each time, the lodging of course will be different . In addition, even with meals, he could only talk to Mitsuha and Her Highness Princess while being with other people, so it won’t be possible to listen to various things .

……He needs to do something about this . He is scared of his father’s disappointment and anger at home . It’s too scary .

Klarge thought while holding his head .

……scary . Sabine-chan’s eyes are scary…… .

The introduction of Sabine-chan and Colette-chan was over safely just a while ago .

Here is Sabine-chan . The Kingdom’s third princess .

And here is Colette-chan . Yamano Viscounty’s retainer candidate . Currently lives together with me in the residence .

When I introduced them both, Colette-chan was frozen in place and Sabine-chan was clinging into me while glaring at Colette-chan similarly looking at her parents’ rival and enemy .

I can understand Colette-chan’s reaction . For Colette-chan who is a commoner through and through, even lower-class nobles are regarded as people from another realm . If you displease them even for a bit, your neck and torso won’t survive . It’s that kind of people .

(TL Note : the raw says Colette-chan is a thoroughbred in Katakana . . )

The feudal lord from where Colette-chan’s village is located, Earl Bozes’s family is nothing like that however, if you deal with other nobles the same way as with the Bozes’s family, even your life won’t be enough to compensate . That’s why the adults in the village educate the children well enough to not be rude to feudal lords and their families . It’s already a common thing to the people in the society .

Me? I am different, you know .

Because I am not an 『Aristocrat from the beginning』, but 『Colette-chan’s friend, Mitsuha who just happens to be a noble』, for Colette-chan, she regards Mitsuha as 『a person who saved each other’s lives, Mitsuha and Colette』 .

Updated from novelhall[.]com

Hence, even if barons or knights are afraid of me, Colette-chan will still be a normal friend to me .

Well, in truth, it’s not good for the retainer candidate to be friends with the head of a viscounty .

But, well, I don’t want to be stiff on that kind of thing . At this point of time, I will cry if Colette-chan starts to call me 『Mitsuha-sama』 or 『Her Excellency, Viscount Yamano』 .

No, really .

Now, the problem is Sabine-chan .

Well, in this side too, I can understand the reason .

Colette-chan, who is living together with me in the territory, riding the car earlier than her, and speaking with me by using 『Mitsuha』 and 『Colette-chan』 like a close friend .

Sabine-chan, on the other hand, sometimes calls me 『Mitsuha』 as a princess, but it’s usually 『Mitsuha-neesama』 . Although, she may behave like a spoiled child towards me, a commoner girl who is two years younger than her is treating her 『elder sister』 equally . For Sabine-chan, it’s not amusing at all .

I need to open her heart and make her get along well with Colette-chan somehow or it will be awkward along the journey .

Ah .

If I had given my sacred handgun to Colette-chan, what in the world will happen……

Hiiiiiiiiiieee!!!
