Chapter 466: Rockford
Since Im headed for the Rockford Earldom, Maria and Kaede seemed to be preparing some sort of presents secretly. I noticed they were sneaking around doing something, but they wouldnt tell me what.
Maria and Marnie baked a lot of cookies, evidently from the smell wafting from the kitchen. Aside from that, I havent got a clue.
We prepared various things in a hurry, and after we teleported to our Volton mansion, we rode Tsubakis carriage to go to the Rockford Earldom.
Hey Maria, what were you doing in secret with Kaede?
Fufu, its a secret. Its fine even if you dont know about it, Takumi-sama.
I-is that so?
I was a bit curious so I asked, but it doesnt seem like shed tell me. But it wasnt anything bad so I guess its alright.
Tsubakis rhythmical running felt good, but I noticed the faces on the travelers and carriages crossing our paths cramped up at the ferocity of Tsubakis giant body.
The highway from Volton to Rockford, perhaps because of the influence of Wedgefort and the Sanctuary, is being developed and widened, so theres construction work being done here and there.
The road has become nice and spacious. This is also your influence, Takumi-sama, right?
No, its not just because of me, Sophia. Its because of the Papeck Company and everyone involved in the road development.
Takumi-sama, too much humility sounds like sarcasm, you know?
Indeed. Weve become amazing wives, dont you think?Aall newest chapters on n.o./velbi/n/(.)com
Im happy that Sophia, Maria, and Marnie hold me in such high regard, but in reality, I think its wrong to say it was all just because of me.
I talked about such things with everyone inside the carriage, when I heard Kaede, who was on her reserved seat on Tsubakis back. speak.
Master! I can see Rockford~!
Thank you. Line up at the back!
Roger!
As if to show Valkyra Kingdoms prosperity, there was a long line to get through the gates of Rockford City.
Just when I thought this would take a long time and that this could get boring, Kaede notified me that someone riding on a horse was approaching the carriage.
Master! Someones coming!
Could it be someone sent to meet us by Earl Rockford?
When I opened my window, a knight on horseback from the Rockford Earldom was coming towards our carriage.
I had caught sight of Iruma-donos carriage. Please allow me to show you the way.
Apologies for bother. Please guide us.
Thanks to Earl Rockford, Im so glad I dont need to wait in the long line.
Our carriage followed the knight through the gates of Rockford City and we headed directly towards the Earl Rockfords mansion.
