Kingdom of Anemone.
Compared to its neighbour, the Kingdom of Friesia, the national territory is a relatively small country of less than a quarter.
However, half of them face the sea, so there are plenty of ports and trade flourishes. From trade with various countries across the sea, we also purchase many rare imports that are not available to other neighbouring countries, including Friesia, a vibrant trading country treasured by many.
Until recent years, it was also a valuable importer for Friesia, which tended to be smoke-averse to other countries. In fact, there were times when we relied on the Anemone State for more than 80% of the imports of goods outside Friesia. Is it something like 60% now? Still, it doesn't change that I rely on you more than half of the time.
Unlike the Kingdom of Friesia, once and for all, there is also slavery. Even so, no recommendation has been made for the treatment of slaves to that extent, and the trafficking of slaves in the country itself is prohibited. Ownership is only permitted in respect of slaves bought from outside the country. This is a country where the human rights of slaves are ensured considerably compared to other countries.
Once you set foot in the country and continue behind the gates, the bustling city where many merchants cross stretches right in front of you. Even though it was already dusk, there was no sign of any stalls or shops closing at all. Cheapness, valuables, and just incorporated goods are raised in this sight, and a vocal merchant is walking the city wide. They are exactly the target of outfits, such as people coming in from outside the country. As soon as you step in, you'll be called out to see how this is.
"I'm looking for a place to stay first.
One of the two people handling the carriage refuses the product by hand. The other man looked around to keep a close eye on his surroundings, even though he easily took the reins.
"You guys don't look, but you're the merchant?
"Yes, there was an important business meeting in this city. I like the accommodation where I can park my carriage, do you have any idea?
The merchant would teach the polite man to buy one, and offered him one fruit. If the merchant would not thread on the gold when he handed in the price and the man receiving the fruit urged him to continue, he taught him the path of the nearest luxury inn and waved to them at the end.
"Do you need it, Mr. Alan?
"Oh, is that good?
Helpful, the man who had the reins received the fruit he had just bought earlier, and he stuck it on every skin.
"The fruit I saw for the first time kind of freaked me out.
"Try it. Oh, you know how delicious it is.
Yeah, yummy. Alan swallowed the fruit as he said, giving Eric, sitting next to him, a reins and clinging one more bite to the fruit.
"Arthur will be used to it in the carriage, but Column Squad... is Mr. Column okay?" Jeanne, stay with the lady.
"No, you can't. He said he was already hardened by the bees.
You imagined it, and Alan, laughing all the way down and throwing in his last bite, looked back at the carriage as small as it was.
……
"... uh... are you okay? Arthur, column.
When we arrived at the inn, we settled into the inn room after Eric quickly handled the process for us.
The room is large thanks to the fact that it was a luxury oriented accommodation built for upstream merchants who came to negotiate trade. One room, more like a luxury apartment in a previous life. This is going to be enough for all of us in separate rooms, and I'm really glad we're available.
Perhaps because merchants and travellers often also go out, accommodation is more fulfilling than in our country.
Captain Column dressed as an upstream merchant, me and Stayle. And Arthur, Deputy Eric and Captain Alan, dressed as his entourage, unloaded their bags and took a breather.
Marie, my exclusive samurai, and the exclusive samurai of Style, begin to separate their luggage.
Closed the door and quickly I spoke to Arthur and Captain Column.
"No problem. Isn't the lady the one who's tired of the long journey?
"It's okay!... Sorry to bother you.
Captain Column, Arthur will correct his posture and answer me. I was relieved that the two were in their usual condition, unlike in the carriage. Captain Alan and Deputy Eric are laughing at me behind both of them.
They both did a good job of escorting me in the carriage, but I've always been a bummer.
Even Captain Column was nervous about a top-secret escort mission for the two royals on a boulder, he was silent with his mouth fully tied, and Arthur was always silent in front of the captain, who admired him, and didn't feel like talking to me or Stayle, as usual. The style also looked out from the narrow clearance of the curtain all the way to think of something in the style.
They were all too silent and the two dedicated samurai looked very nervous. It's neighboring and the Wang du is close to each other, so I got there shaken for a few hours by a carriage for your sneak, but the silence made my time feel extra long.
This time, there is one dedicated maid to help me and Style get around in a discreet way during a confidential visit. And the escort was obliged by my mother to have three knights above the rank of deputy captain apart from Arthur the Kingsguard, and the knight was allowed to nominate himself.
Those I nominated were Captain Alan, Captain Column and Deputy Eric.
All three are knights I thought I could personally trust since I met you during the annihilation a year ago.
They were three people who heard their names particularly well on the subject, even from Arthur, and I thought they were these three if I were to rely on them. "Chancellor Gilbert taught me corner handlers, but I was no match for Captain Alan," or "Captain Column has been instructed precisely this time, and at first glance by his father and Clark," or "Mr. Eric has assumed the position of deputy captain, but that guy is really superior in all his skills". Arthur can't talk enough about these three. As far as listening, I can also ask how they are quite adorable.
When I asked him about the captain and deputy captain of his own 8th squad, Arthur's squad seemed to be a pretty capable supremacist squad slaughtered among the Knights, and he replied with a word "scared".
So far, Arthur has not revealed why he volunteered for the team other than "I definitely wanted to do it."
Shortly before we left, when we said hello about this escort, we all looked more nervous than Arthur. But, "I have nominated three of you from the rank of captain and deputy captain for this top-secret visit that I thought I could trust.... please, thank you," she replied with a very clear voice.
Captain Alan and Captain Column were either nervous or slightly reddish in the face, while Deputy Eric was slightly moisturizing his eyes. Though I was a little sorry that that was ostensibly just my overnight trip, even though it was top secret assignment from the royalty.
"So, Dear Jeanne, Dear Philip. We'll go outside once."
"No, you can stay put.
I will stop the column captains who once tried to leave for us, who would change clothes in the room.
"I'll be dressed for a while now… after everything is done. More than that. Columns, Alan, Eric. … I have something to tell you as well.
Conversely, the two dedicated maids who tried to change their bags to get us dressed will be moved to a separate room.
The three knights nodded at my words with a strong eye after giving me a slightly surprised look.
... Yes, I was newly prepared in the last five days.
That's what I decided to do after consulting with the three of them, Steele, Tiara and Arthur. I tried to tell the knights what I told the three of them five days ago. When I talked to the three of them about whether I should tell them, Arthur told me that these three would surely help, and that Steele and Tiara also agreed that if Arthur were to say so, it would be fine.
My mother gave me permission to move the knights, and although I thought I could act without telling the truth according to the circumstances, I still decided to talk about it.
When I tried to explain, Style said, "I'm here." Instead, he followed them in order. Arthur is also hearing the situation again alongside the senior knight.
To put it bluntly, I was the predictor, and I learned that Prince Leon was going to be in big trouble tonight when the guards found him down under the castle and intoxicated. He told me the story... but for some reason I was terrified that the three knights felt something like killing me.
Arthur, who already knew the story beside him, was also freaking up and down his shoulder at the condition of the senior knight, and it wouldn't be his fault.
Captain Column of the elite, who valued his courtesy as a knight, did not think he would be willing to kill even Captain Alan, who seemed to be free and free, or Deputy Eric, who seemed warm.
"Isn't that... a shameful act as a prince of a country before your fiancée...?
"I was wondering if it would be a good idea for me to be absent, even though I'm... my fiancée to Lord Pride.
"Dear Stayle, because of this, I will do my best to protect that prince. But may I?
Open your mouth, Captain Column, Deputy Eric, and Captain Alan were all dongles. Sure, when I hear about the current style... Besides, it's not extra mild because even Stayle is nodding to questions from Captain Alan.
I have a lot to say and I wanted to correct it, but I can't say it because it includes content that would be a big problem if I said it before the incident happened. I couldn't help but say, "No, there are so many reasons for that..." Clearly there were only excuses to shelter.
"If we're going to prevent the prince from doing his job, I'm going to set up the tavern with me and Eric right now.
Captain Column advances me gently with his hands up. Captain Alan on both sides, Deputy Eric, also nodded and held his fist. If we do have two knights, we will be able to protect one prince. Preliminary suggestions were also made to the style. There's just a problem there. "That's..." I return to them with a slight wrinkle between my brows.
"Predictably, we can't even identify the liquor store... So it has to be after the noise that Master Leon is gone.
After the three knights replied to my reply, I thought it seemed difficult. The game's recap scene only said "liquor store," and the time was only "midnight". However, soon there was a scene all over the city where Prince Leon disappeared from the castle to make a scene for the search, and it was the next morning that the guards would find him. It's probably okay to go around the back...
I was originally going to go find Master Leon after all the noise, and I had no choice but to get this far.
... It's just the next morning when the guards find out who Prince Leon is to hide his identity by then, it's hard if the people find out who he is. I'm hitting first hand... and each of the knights started to move while I thought about it.
Until nightfall, he solidifies this occasion and the form of escort, and commands the samurai to prepare meals for the inn.
... Yes, the problem is night.
If nothing goes wrong, that's fine.
At that time, with your mother's permission, you only want to see the king of the kingdom of Anemone first.
Looking out the window protected by Deputy Eric over his shoulder, the moon was starting to dull out into the dimmed sky.
