Chapter 380: Reluctant Accompaniment

At the entrance of the town, there was a commotion when we brought the 50+ captured bandits, but because of the Lady Rosary and her escorting knights, we finished turning over the bandits and the Commerce Guild happily processed the horses that came along.

The morning after our inevitable stay, as predictable as it was, the carriage carrying Lady Rosary’s entourage followed behind us.

「Can’t we just speed up and go ahead?」

「Absolutely not. Did they not request it specifically?」

「That’s right. We can’t refuse because she’s the daughter of a noble of an ally country.」

「We have no reason to refuse either.」

When I spoke absentmindedly, Sophia, Maria, and Marnie all disagreed. Well, I also knew that. I was just complaining.

Yes, Lady Rosary and her escorting knights asked to join us to Gnomstoll Kingdom.

They would periodically visit Gnomstoll Kingdom where the Arenberg Margravery[1] imports armor from to network while also making purchases. This time, Lady Rosary seemed to be going in place of her father who was busy.

Her two brothers were there, but they were ill suited for negotiations with a different country like this, so it was up to Rosary, who was a woman and the second daughter.

「Golan-san, do you know Margrave Arenberg?」

I tried asking Golan-san, who was once called the God Craft as a blacksmith in Gnomstoll Kingdom before, because he must have know of the frequent customer who purchases large quantities of arms.

「Hm? Margrave Arenberg, huh...... I knew the previous head well. I do remember meeting the current youngster head once or twice.」

「Heh~」

According to Golan-san, the Arenberg Margravery is a strong militaristic family because it shares a lengthy border with the enemy nation Triaria Kingdom and the potential enemy nation Divine Empire of Sydnia.

「Naturally, it requires a mass of good quality arms.」

「No, perhaps because Akane was bored, she jumped out with Lulu-chan, so it is not necessary.」

Yes, in order to match Rosary-sama’s carriage speed, the speed Tsubaki pulled the carriage slowed. And to my surprise, bandits were able to catch up.

I could tell when the carriage dropped.

「Ah, it seems it’s over.」

Maria, who had been watching from the window, opened the door then Akane and Lulu-chan entered.

「The knights from the margravery will do the clean up.」

「......i-is that so.」

Most of the bandits were quickly annihilated by Kaede, but the members who were bored by the slow pace of the carriage alternated fighting the bandits.

「I took their ID cards and valuables then buried them nya.」

「Ha haha, is that so?」

For them to attack after seeing Tsubaki...... are they stupid? Moreover, many of the bandit groups had more than 20 members. Just how many bandits are there?

We’re being thoroughly used by Rosary-sama.

I should have refused to accompany them.

Well, not that I could have refused.

1. In case some people are confused, I use Arenberg Margravery when it refer to the entire family / their territory, but when I put in Margrave Arenberg, it refers to the Margrave himself.
