On the other hand, in the office after the Lily Knights have left the room.

The Margrave folded his arms, tilted his head, and asked the Count Rosehip.

「When I ntioned Lord Reaper’s na, the people behind her whispered 『Onee-sama』 but… are they all sisters?」

Rembering that the Margrave didn’t know much about Knights and pilots, Count Rosehip replied with a smile on his face.

「No, in Lily Knights, there is a custom to call the senior mbers as 『Onee-sama』. I guess they are creating a pseudo-sisterhood within the knight order to enhance their unity」

The Margrave’s eyes sparkled, as if he was interested. However, he quickly cald down with the next words of Count Rosehip.

「Our Rose Knight also has a similar system. The term 『Aniki』 is one of them. Calling 『Oyaji』 may also be a form of it」

The captain with blond hair curled into a braid and the girl with her hair cut short at the shoulders looks at each other while holding hands. That image in Margrave’s mind had been replaced by that of Count Rosehip and his n.

「…Their bond seems to be quite solid」

The Margrave nodded as his expression faded, and the Count Rosehip agreed with him.

With the expert’s agreeing with him, the Margrave let out a sigh of relief.

***

The stages move greatly from Landbarn to the north-northwest.

This is a rural city located just south of the spirit forest. It’s a border town located at the northernmost point of the road connecting the elven villages and the imperial capital.

In the office of the lord’s mansion, a mature woman with thick makeup is reading a docunt with her legs crossed.

「Co in」

There was a knock at the door, and the lord, the mature viscountess, allowed them to enter. The figure who entered the room was a thin man that looked older than he is.

Because she was wearing a tight skirt, it could not hide the red triangle of the mature woman. After taking a glance at it and swallowing his saliva, his deputy, an old-looking and skinny man, opened his mouth.

「The Lily Knights have arrived!」

The mature viscountess raises her eyes from the docunts and looks out the window. Beyond the city walls surrounding the northern city, he could see the heads of several Knights.

The fact that she didn’t notice the shaking caused by the Knights’ footsteps must have been due to the pilot’s consideration.

「Put her through to the reception room. I’ll be right there」

After she answered as such, she put the docunts on the desk and stood up.

Lily Knights is a rcenary knight order. It does not belong to any particular country, and the mbers of the group co from various places.

She had called them as reinforcents to the northern border, where tensions with the elves were rising.

(I told them to send as many people as they could, but I wonder how many of them showed up)

With high hopes, the mature viscountess left the room.

「Hee, to think that the knight commander herself would co here, I’m truly grateful」

Upon entering the reception room, the mature viscountess was surprised to see the woman relaxing on the sofa.

She was probably about the sa age as the mature viscountess. She is a beautiful woman with long eyelashes and slit eyes, although her hips and breasts are not as big as the viscountess.

Regrettably, she has a long, big scar under her right eye.

「I just ca to see your face. I’ll leave these girls here and be on my way」

The mature viscountess and the knight commander of Lily Knights were old acquaintances. That’s why there are no unnecessary decorations in the words they exchange.

The commander, who had been sitting on her own accord, turned to the back of the room and cocked her chin.

「The Lily Knights, the White Lily unit, consisted of three B-class Knights, and four C-class Knights cavalry, have arrived at your request」

A pale woman with short cut hair clicks her heels and salutes. A dignified voice cos out of her slender body.

The six people saluting with her were all dressed in pilot uniforms. All of them are won, and young in their own right.

As soon as the viscountess replied, she imdiately turned her face to the commander.

「You only sent one unit? I thought I wrote “as many as you can bring” in the letter I sent you」

The expression on her face was one of disappointnt. The knight commander does not seem to be bothered by this, and brushes her long straight chestnut hair with one hand.

「I’ve got orders from your people. This is all I can spare for now」

When she asked what the knight commander ant, she was told that the Yellow Lily unit was on their way to the Magrave of Landbarn.

A rival who had a huge advantage over her. She frowned at the fact that they were sent there, but sothing ca to her mind.

(I heard that the Rose Knights were coming here to support us, so they hired rcenaries in replacent, huh)

「What about the Red Lily unit?」

The Lily Knights consist of four units. At least she wanted to ask for one more unit.

Incidentally, the one Tauro encountered was the White Lily unit. They are the ones in this room right now.

「They can’t move because they are stuck in the conflict in the eastern country」

The commander imdiately replied. The mature viscountess seed like she was about to say sothing else, but the reply ca out of the commander’s mouth first.

「The Blue Lily unit is on guard duty over there in the eastern country. I can’t move them until we have a full complent of their national Knights」

Her expression frowned, and she sat down in front of the commander with great vigor. She then told the mbers of the White Lily unit to sit down as well.

The captain of the White Lily unit turns to the commander and asks her a question.

「Onee-sama, may I sit down?」

Seeing the commander nodding approvingly, the pilots of the White Lily unit also sat down on the sofa. Looking at that figure, the mature viscountess made a slightly exasperated expression.

「I see you’re still following the tradition to call your seniors 『Onee-sama』. Isn’t it good enough to call you Commander?」

The Commander sipped the tea that had been brought to her, seed unconcerned and did not show any intention to reply.

In the Lily Knights, they don’t use the terms Commander, Vice-Commander, or Captain, but all superiors and seniors are referred to as 『Onee-sama』.

The commander looked around and asked the mature viscountess instead.

「By the way, what happened to that elven gentleman? I thought he was your favorite」

At these words, the mature viscountess’ expression turned bitter.

When she was in the imperial capital, she always had him with her, but when she was transferred to a rural town in the northeast, he left her.

This is what is commonly known as being dumped.

「…The heat’s gone out of him」

However she doesn’t want to tell her the truth. The Commander is a friend of the mature viscountess, but she has『evil』on her head.

If she shows any weakness, she will be made fun of forever.

(In fact I thought there was sothing wrong with at that ti)

She had been so devoted to him, but after half a month of separation, she began to calm down.

As for her body, she still rembered the taste of the elves to an extent. However, that too, had faded since she lost in the preliminaries of the Divine Tournant.

(I wonder if he has overwritten it, that fierce lord of the mountain)

She had t the man who had defeated her in a preliminary match as an enemy when she invaded the northern countries.

He had beaten her again with his powerful and sharp sniping skill.

(Kuh!)

Rembering the wickedness of the defeated that followed her defeat, her body shuddered unconsciously. For so reason, she had suddenly beco sensitive after having her crotch tweaked by the fierce lord of the mountain.

After that, she was continuously forced to play with the local pilots without being allowed to sleep.

「Hee~」

The commander of the Lily Knights laughs with her mouth slanted.

Her eyes clearly say, 『It’s not that you lost your interest, it’s that your partner lost theirs』.

Not wanting to touch the subject, the mature viscount changed the subject and started to fight back. Fortunately, there was just the right thing she wanted to talk about.

「Isn’t it about ti you change to an A-class Knight? It’s not cool for the commander of the Lily Knights to stay riding a B-class Knight, right?」

For the first ti, the commander, who had not let her expression crumble up to this point, raised her eyebrows in displeasure.

The Knight the commander was riding was a B-class. This was sothing she was very mindful about.

「Sothing like that, said it to the previous commander」

There used to be an A-class Knight in Lily Knights. Of course, it was the commander’s Knight, and she, who was a vice commander at the ti, was supposed to inherit it when she was succeeded.

「Ah, sorry, it got destroyed, didn’t it?」

The mature viscountess apologizes in a deliberate manner.

The previous commander was defeated in a battle. She was captured with only minor injuries, and suffered the wickedness of the defeated.

The Knight, however, was destroyed beyond repair.

Since then, there have been no A-class Knights in Lily Knights. And then she, who finally assud the position of commander, is still riding a B-class Knight.

「It’s good you know, A-class Knights. B-class feels like toys compared to them」

Your Knight is as good as a toy. The commander’s eyebrows shot up at the words that could be taken that way.

At the sa ti, confusion and a feeling of suspicion that she doesn’t want to believe appeared on her face.

「Are you saying that you rode an A-class Knight?」

Here, the mature viscountess flashed a nasty smile. It was the smile of a victor.

「His Majesty gave it to as a present」

The commander was shocked and placed the cup of tea in his hand on the plate with a clatter.

It is not impossible to buy a B-class Knight if you pay for it, but A-class Knight is different. The A-class, which could be said to be a symbol of a country, would never be sold outside the country.

That’s why the only way for a rcenary group like Lily Knights to obtain one is to plunder it.

「Should we go and see it now? It has a bright red color and it just so cool」

The commander clenched her fists and trembled in vexation. The mbers of the White Lily unit on both sides looked at her with worry.

(That’s not sothing you get because of your skill! That’s just a present the Empire gave you!)

I’m more skilled than you. Whether it’s true or not, she is confident of that.

Her opponent who was inferior to her, was given anA-class Knight, while she was left with a B-class. This unreasonableness makes her heart boil.

But she is also a Knight pilot, and she can’t resist the opportunity to see an A-class Knight up close.

「……Show it」

She nodded, biting her lip.

(This feels so good. Thank you, Your Majesty)

It’s been a while since she had a victory over her old friend. The mature viscountess smiles as she reaches for the butter cookies on the table while being drunk in this feeling.
