They are sitting side by side on the sofa, and we cannot see their expressions because they are wearing hoods deeply over their eyes. However, judging from their mouths, both of them seem to be won.
Rico was present in the room with .
The two robed won stood up as soon as they saw and bowed with their hands on their chests. So aristocrat, I guess. He looks quite educated.
"This is Bartham Darke Linos. Please have a seat."
They sit gracefully on the sofa.
"Thank you for saving our lives yesterday."
Was it you who collapsed yesterday?
Yes. I've been traveling from the Kingdom of Juka to here almost without a break for a week...
It takes about two weeks to travel from the Kingdom of Juka to the capital by the southern route. It took them half that ti to get there. It is fair to say that it was quite an arduous journey.
"On the way, we flew over the forest to avoid detection by the army of the Lamarong Kingdom. I was so exhausted that I lost consciousness. I am very embarrassed.
"If it weren't for the Marquis' help, Soleil... Thank you very much.
"My dear, this is..."
Rico presented with a letter. It is neatly sealed with wax and has a seal stamped on it. It must have been brought by the girls. From the looks of it, it is an official docunt of a noble family.
"Let take a look at it.
I open the seal and read the letter.
"...There's nothing in it. Are you trying to flush it out or sothing?"
"...white. It's still white."
"No evil thoughts. I knew it was not a mistake to co to the Marquis de Berthau.
The two won are muttering to each other, smiles on their lips.
"What the hell is going on here?"
"... I beg your pardon. We're Siljus. My na is Soleil. The paper you are holding was made by a water spirit and changes color when held by a person with evil intentions. We do not make contact with those who have evil intentions.
Then the woman who called herself Soleil took off her hood and her robe.
She was a frighteningly beautiful girl. She had a small white horn on her head and white feathers on her back. And the outfit under the robe was ... erotic. She was petite but had big tits, and the outfit emphasized those tits. Moreover, she was wearing a mini-skirt. She is a hit with . If there were such a girl in a cabaret club, I would go there every day.
"I'm Astess. Please take the ti to get to know .
The woman sitting next to Soleil takes off her hood and robe. She is older than Soleil. However, there is no doubt that she is a beautiful woman with fine eyes, nose, and facial features. She also has big breasts and is wearing an erotic costu.
"Oh, you guys..."
I can't help but raise my voice. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I need to be calm. I need to be calm. Rico is staring at . He doesn't have his face turned toward , but I can tell he's staring at .
"...or is it a succubus?"
The features of this succubus are very similar to the one we saw before in Krumfal. However, at that ti, she was all in black.
"I don't deny it.
"Monsieur Soleil! We are..."
"It's all right, Aster. We Siljus and Succubus were originally of the sa species. Our ancestors had a weak life force and did everything in their power to keep our race alive. They developed a thod to increase their life force by taking in male energy and a thod to increase their life force by invigorating their bodies with the help of spirits.
"So the succubus prolonged its life with the male spirit, and you Siljus chose the thod of using the spirit."
You're right.
So, what do these Siljus want?
Let get straight to the point. We need your help.
That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it?
"...I understand that this is an impertinent request. This is our one-sided request. First of all, we would like to ask you to listen to what we have to say.
According to the story, the Siljus were initially living in a small settlent in the Lamarong Empire. However, in recent years, the Lamaron Empire has been suffering from poor harvests. So, the kingdom tried to expand the cultivated land by clearing the forests. One of the thods introduced was to burn the forests to clear land for cultivation.
"Oh, what a waste. If we cut down the trees and sold them as timber like in the Principality of Niza, we could have used the money to buy food.
In fact, the Principality of Niza made huge profits by selling the cut timber cheaply. The land could be cultivated and the wood sold, thus killing two birds with one stone.
"Moreover, they burned a huge area of forest, so our village was also burned down.
Since it was a small settlent, the Imperialists were probably not that concerned.
"We managed to escape the fire, but we lost our place to live. We had no choice but to flee to the Kingdom of Juka with the spirits we were serving.
The kingdom of Juka was in a state of civil war. It must have been quite difficult to move through the forest with the spirits protecting themselves.
"We finally reached the royal capital, but it was not an environnt in which the spirits could survive. However, the forest to the north of the capital was sohow suitable for the spirits, so we decided to move the village there.
It must have taken a lot of determination to move to Juka, where the Great Demon King is said to have descended. Moreover, it must have been quite a burden to rebuild a village from scratch in an unfamiliar place.
However, crops do not grow well in the forests of Jukha, and we are having a hard ti. I hear that the Marquis of Berthau knows how to transform a land of poor harvest into a land of abundant crops. We have co to ask you to tell us how to do so.
"I can't say anything about the thod without seeing the land. My wife is the expert on such matters, but unfortunately she is currently in the Principality of Niza..."
The two Siljus n were disappointed.
"And about a week ago, the Lamaron Empire suddenly invaded the Juka Kingdom. There is a possibility of war with the empire if things go wrong. It's not a good ti..."
"I hope the Imperial Army overruns the Imperial Army..."
Aestes mutters as if she is going to spit it out.
"Aestes, don't do this."
"Well, I understand how you feel, since your village was burned to the ground..."
"Not only that, but the Imperial troops have been slaughtering lords, soldiers, and innocent people in the Kingdom of Juka. If they attack our villages, they may kill us all."
Why would you do that?
"It is probably led by General Matkal, one of the Imperial Guard's elite. Their battle is ruthless. They show no rcy to their enemies. The sll of blood wafts through the forest, frightening the spirits.
"Well, I know that forest too, but it certainly wasn't an environnt in which crops could grow. Many of the mushrooms that grew there were poisonous.
"You know it well."
Yes, I ate many things in that forest. I used to babysit for a gourmand."
"Marquis, I don't an to be rude, but you shouldn't underestimate the spirits. They are the rulers of nature, of water, wind, fire and earth. With these spirits on our side, our country will be more prosperous. We, the Siljus, have these spirits at our side. Helping us is the sa as helping them. I know it's a lot to ask. Help us. If you protect us, we promise to pay you a handso reward.
"Reward...?"
"Hi... If you protect I will give you my body.
"What?"
"Ah?"
Rico let out a dusky voice unintentionally. Calm down, Rico. Soleil is lying on the ground, red up to her ears.
"I don't know what to say... Let think about it..."
I'm also upset by the sudden sales pitch. For the ti being, I asked them to stay at a hotel in the capital and wait for there.
"Ferris, Ruara, please escort our guests to the hotel in the capital. If you give them my na, they should be fine even if the hotel is full.
""Yes, sir.""
"I'll leave those two to Linos."
Rico, don't be so angry.
"You can do as you please. She looks young and she has big breasts.
"No, that's not..."
I have work to do in Krumphal. I'll be right back.
Wait, Rico, wait. Wait Rico, wait!
He grabs Rico's arm as he is about to walk toward the transition zone.
"She's beautiful. I'm sure she knows about Linos.
I take Riko in a princess hug and head for the distance.
"Please let go! Let go of !"
"I won't let go! I'll never let go of Rico!!!!"
I roughly throw Riko onto the bed. Then I hugged Riko wildly.
"You're the best, Riko."
"... No."
"I'm not lying. Because Rico's body is perfect, not a speck on it. Your pretty face and your beautiful body... you're my favorite.
"...linos."
I hugged Riko until the evening eting ti.
