Two weeks have passed since we decided to go see the world together.

Hurst-san quit being the vice-commander of the Northern Knights, so time went by, handing over the role so far to Garrez-san and completing the procedures.

Thruster-san was the busiest, going back and forth between the royal palace and the Northern Knights. It was a way of working that was slow.

. . . . If Ryleigh-kun is ingested, Thruster-san will become a perpetual motion machine.

Scary.

So while Thruster-san was preparing me, I decided to face my appetite.

Yeah, that’s right. When I think about meat, magic beasts appear.

The fastest way is to try it out, so I went near the barrier and thought a lot about chicken. I’ll give it to you because it’s delicious. . . I want to eat delicious fried chicken wings.

As a result, there was no sign of the magic beasts coming out, and I was just hungry.

I tried to imitate the barking with Ash-san’s skill [Resonance], but all I got was someone who raised a strange voice towards the forest and nothing approached.

. . . In other words, peace!

As expected of Shizuku-chan. People call her the Saint of the Millennium Barrier. She has two cool names.

Now that I know the relationship between the strength of the barrier and my power, I can go on a journey without any worries.

We warmly ate chicken wings in garlic soy sauce and said goodbye to the Northern Knights.

And went once to the royal palace.

Because Hurst-san became the commander of the special forces, and Ryleigh-kun, Ash-san, and Zezgard-san entered the special forces, so there was something like an appointment ceremony.

Even though it’s called an appointment ceremony, it seems that they’ll just go to the king and receive a few words, so I didn’t participate. I was going to do it, but. . .

“Shina-sama”

Prompted by a gentle voice, I stood up from the flower bed where I was tending to the herbs.

It seems that the appointment ceremony has ended, and everyone is here. . .

“Wow! It’s really cool. . .!”

His appearance is the white knight uniform I once saw and a pure white cloak.

All four are wearing the same clothes, but it’s nice that they’re all slightly different.

Ryleigh-kun is wearing the usual precious metal magic tools, so he’s more elegant than everyone else, and after all, he’s a handsome boy. Beautiful boy dress up.

Ash-san has golden brown hair and white eyes, and the heirloom sword No. 2 on his waist is shining.

Zezgard-san’s long cloak seems to get in the way, and it’s wrapped around his left hand so that it doesn’t flutter in the wind.

“Ryleigh-kun is cute and cool, and Ash-san looks great with that hair color. Zezgard-san looks better than usual!”

Reluctantly, I ran over and stretched out my hand. . .

“Shina-sama. The mission of the special forces is to protect Shina-sama. So please take care of yourself.”

Hurst-san grabs my dirt-stained hand without hesitation and gently lifts it up.

When I was pulled a little bit, the distance between me and Hurst-san was shortened in no time.

In front of me are gentle light blue eyes. Also, he had a masculine physique, wearing a white knight uniform and a pure white cloak. That figure is very very. . .

“. . . Hurst-san is too cute.”

Polar bear. . .! This is already a polar bear! Handsome polar bear. . .!

“It’s the cutest thing ever.”

It’s great. You can attack seals. This creates tension.

“. . . Shina-san, there, um. . .”

“Cute, cute! haha!!”

Ash-san’s voice interrupted Shizuku-chan’s voice, which was timidly trying to convey something.

Ash-san laughed loudly and let his long hair on the right side flutter with his hand.

“He’s cute and I’m cool, huh? I see, Isarai Shina!”

“Haa”

“That’s right, that’s right. I’m of noble blood, so pure white would look good on me!”

“Hm”

“I’ve become the vice-captain of the Special Forces, so you don’t have to worry about anything, just rely on me-”

Zash

“I’m the captain?”

“Hi”

Wow. It’s a blizzard. And a wooden stick.

“You! I’m wearing this uniform for the first time today! Are you planning to pluck my collar already!?”

The wooden stick cuts through the wind, and Ash-san moves away from me at a tremendous speed.

A wooden stick in Hurst-san’s hand.

You should have been holding my hand until just now. . . I wonder if it’s a skill. The skill [Summon Stick], I guess. . .

Ash-san running away and Hurst-san chasing. Yes. It’s peaceful today. . . . .Peace. . . . . What is peace. . . .?

“Ah, even so, the vice-captain isn’t Zezgard-san.”

“I’m not the type to be a vice-captain.”

I took my eyes off Ash-san and Hurst-san and called out to Zezgard-san who walked leisurely.

Zezgard-san shook his head at me.

Ryleigh-kun, who walked with him, gave a wry smile to Zezgard-san. . .

“Actually, Zez-san was said to be the vice-captain in terms of his career and the number of years he had been a knight. . .”

He secretly whispers in my ear while hugging my arm.

I see, when I nodded, Zezgard-san replied while saying no.

“Troublesome.”

And then, he made a gesture of stretching out his brand new uniform with his hand.

“I’m not suited for a role that brings people together. It’s better to be able to move as you want without responsibility.”

“It’s the wings of freedom.”

“Yes!”

Zezgard-san smiled.

“Besides, that guy. . . . Ash Claude attracts people, and he seemed to be accustomed to giving orders.”

“Certainly.”

I can say that Ash-san is very. . . adored by the Kei Bihei Brothers? . . .is he loved? And when the royal palace was attacked by magic beasts, he gave instructions firmly.

“Ash-san and Vol-san are also good friends, and we all decided that it would be a good fit.”

Ryleigh-kun said while laughing softly.

Good friends. . . . . Good friends?

. . . . .I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, but it’s the standard for Ryleigh-kun’s friendship. It’s kind of different from me. . .

“I too. . . I wanted to join the special forces and help protect Shina-san. . .”

“Eh”

“But, Saint-sama. . . Shizuku-chan doesn’t belong to this country, and it became a discussion that it would be best to be next to Shina-san.”

“Yeah, that’s right. . .!”

I feel so sorry for Shizuku-chan to protect me.

By all means, I want Shizuku-chan to stay the way she is.

That’s why, when I nodded to Ryleigh-kun’s words, Shizuku-chan stared up at me. . .

“I think the white knight uniform suits me too.”

“That is. . .!”

. . . .imagine.

Shizuku-chan in a pure white cape in a white night uniform. Her glossy black hair is tied up and her watery black eyes sparkle.

That figure is. . .

“You would look cool.”

Isn’t it cool?

“Yes!”

Shizuku-chan laughed happily at my words.

That smile looked really happy, and I became happy too, and we laughed together.

Then, Zezgard-san groaned and held his chest. . .

“Yes. . .”

What is it?

“Hey hey, Shina-san. Earlier, you said that I was cool too. . .?”

“Yeah, Ryleigh-kun is always really cute, but today he’s also really cool!”

Yes. Ryleigh-kun is usually full of cuteness, but today, maybe because he’s wearing a knight’s uniform, he looks a little more grown up.

That’s why, when I told him frankly, Ryleigh-kun looked up at me enchantedly.

Ah, ah, this is. . .

“Shina-san is the one who stole my first experience and made me an adult.”

Bad words.

“. . .and, no way. . .with this, you can go to the sea anytime, right. . .”

Even though I was about to give in to the damage of my soft heart, I managed to squeeze out the words.

I thought I would get a good answer, but. . .

“Ah. . . that’s it, Shina. There were a few things going on. . .”

Zezgard-sn blurts out his words in a difficult way.

Then, Ryleigh-kun also frowned apologetically.

“I’m sorry, Shina-san. . . . . Actually, my brother. . .”

Ryleigh-kun mentions Thruster-san.

In this atmosphere, it doesn’t seem like a good thing, but. . .

“Let me talk about it.”

A voice resounded from the other side of Ryleigh-kun who was about to start talking.

That was the voice of Thruster-san, who had just been mentioned.

When I turned my gaze to the source of the voice, Thruster-san was dressed as usual and his eyes were sharp.

And next to him was a man with shining golden hair.

The shining golden hair is curly, and the color of the eyes peeking out from under the lightly longer bangs is purple.

I think I’ve seen that person with slightly drooping eyes and sexy. . .?

“Hey! You’re Shina!”

Sweet voice and nice tone.

The person who seemed to have a star at the end of his sentence raised his hand brightly towards me.

“I’ve heard a lot about you! Anyway, from now on, please!”

The person who approached me in no time put out his hand as if asking for a handshake.

I was perplexed by the feeling that it was a little too much, but when I tried to grasp the hand. . .

“Shina-sama. I think it’s dangerous to touch it.”

Before I knew it, Hurst-san, who had returned to my side, slapped the hand of the person with golden hair down.

Shizuku-chan whispered in the silence when I was taken aback by the excessive force. . .

“. . .This person is the crown prince.”

. . . .Prince!?
