50 side braver 5 (first part)

Me and the princess ─ ─ There was a woman sitting in front of Eina.

"─ ─ It's an honor, but I refuse."

That said, the woman with beautiful silver hair and fox ears bowed her head respectfully.

Her name is Mikage. Among the mercenaries residing in King's Landing, who have the nickname Silver Flash, he is the best of the best.

─ ─ It wasn't today that I first met him. It's just a case of an evil beast runaway (Stampede) in the forest the other day.

Originally, the Royal Army, including me, didn't visit the place to solve the Grievous Runaway (Stampede).

I had to fight various evil beasts (monsters) to gain experience. That forest was just chosen as part of that. The Royal Army soldiers who accompanied us are insured in case anything happens to us.

However, there was something unusual about the forest in advance, and I was informed that a mercenary skilled in the art was on his way to investigate it. The union contacted me to meet her and exchange information if necessary.

As soon as they arrived in the woods, a large number of dog-heads (covolts) approached them.

The Commander of the Royal Army offered me a retreat, but I denied it. Even if I was an amateur, I knew this was obviously an anomaly.

As a result of the discussion, we sent a few soldiers to the union and the national garrison to report back into the woods.

─ ─ And by the time we arrived at the "center" of the disturbance, the Covolt King was already dead. Speaking of what we've done, it's like cleaning up a flood of dogheads.

There were two people in the center before us.

First of all, one is a clever woman named Silver Flash, who was informed in advance by the union. And the other one... was someone I knew very well.

A while later, I visited the mercenary union.

I'm here to scout out new people for our "Brave Party." Eina was originally thinking of attracting skilled mercenaries to her group.

After all, although I have received some training as a brave man, I am still immature. [M] Eina grew up in the royal castle, even though her abilities as a wizard were high. Neither of them has experienced a long journey.

I can't believe I'm taking the caretaker on a journey to destroy the Demon King. In other words, in the journey of demon king crusade, you basically have to do yourself.

It was essential to have experienced mercenaries on the journey as leaders around them.

In terms of being accustomed to traveling, there was also a means of sending troops possessed by the Kingdom with experience in expeditionary missions. However, basically, military soldiers are trained on the premise of group combat, and those who possess personal superior courage hold important positions in the house, and there is some sort of organized confusion if they fail.

After all, it was the right thing to do to bring in mercenaries who were free.

The white feather arrow was "Silver Flash". When I told the union staff about the incident, we were guided to the reception room used for discussions, etc., and the silver flash arrived late.

And we offered her to join us on the journey of demon king crusade.

It was Eina who suggested drawing in the silver flash.

From what I've heard, she came all the way to Arks from far away to be one of my brave men, to be precise. Then this story should be a ship for crossing. That's how Eina talked to her opponent about Silver Flash.

But ─ ─ I came back with a silver flash that lowered my head with the words that said no to my offer.

"... could you tell me why? Why did you come to King's Landing to be one of the brave?"

Aina, who had lost her words in an unexpected response, told Silver Flash that she would recover from the surprise.

"The princess is right. I have originally visited this Brestia to become a companion of the Brave Lord and have acted as a mercenary. But...."

That said, Silver Flash smiled when he laid his hand on his chest. It was an attractive smile as a woman that was inconceivable from the modest attitude I had when I first met her.

"For me, I met a truly loyal master."

"It's... who the hell are you calling the Lord of Loyalty?"

When Eina asked, Silver Flash threw a gaze at me. [M]

"If you're a brave man, you know that. I was there anyway."

I couldn't understand the meaning of the words, but when I thought about her "connection", I came up with an answer.

My first encounter with Silver Flash was with the Urban Beast Runaway (Stampede). Silver flashes weren't the only ones in the woods beside the body of the Covolt King.

Well, there was one of them who was supposed to have acted differently from me.

"No way... are you talking about Yukina!?

Silver Shine nodded forcefully.

"Speaking of which, Hero seems to know Yukina-sama (...)... in what way?

Yukina-sama... you're here. The feeling of saying nothing is boiling up. Still, I taught honestly without hiding it.

"... Yukina is from my hometown. He came to King's Landing because I asked Yukina to."

"What is that!?

Silver flashes with her ears pinned and surprised.

"Well then, I must thank the brave. Thanks to you bringing him to King's Landing, I was able to meet the master I should serve."

It was difficult to take the thank you honestly.

On the contrary, if I hadn't brought Yukina to King's Landing, Silver Flash would have been one of us.

"Is Yukina strong enough for someone like you to follow?"

A talented man of silver flashes admires it. Eina's voice sounded as if she was afraid of Yukina.

However, the silver flash that shook the story shook his head sideways.

"Probably not even as strong as I am at the moment."

"Eh!?

Aina was unexpectedly speaking out in a frantic voice in a bitter appraisal of the Lord.

On the contrary, I was convinced.

With all due respect, Yukina's strength in the battle was somewhat inferior to mine when she left the village. To be honest, if I hadn't looked at the scene, I wouldn't have even believed the fact that he defeated the Cobolt King.

But Yukina was definitely the one who defeated the Cobolt King.

"But Yukina-sama will eventually be a hero. I'm sure of it."

Yukina being there means that's what it is. I knew him better than anyone. [M]
