I stared out the window of the carriage and exhaled a dewy breath.
I’m currently wearing thick clothes with a Wolfled cloak. Although the air is currently very cold, the current season is sumr.
(As usual, this place is always cold.)
I was currently on my way to the Vortec forest with the Wolfled Knights with . It had been several tens of minutes since I left the house and we finally entered a forest.
I then looked at the 2 red and blue swords beside .
Today I brought both of them because I felt that I would need them in case of a fight.
(Is it okay not to tell the other Umbra Vitae mbers that you’ll be gone for a long ti?)
Nifl appeared out of the sword and sat on my left shoulder.
(It’s fine, I can notify them over the phone.)
The tools Frum made have improved to beco more flexible and useful, especially with the appearance of the people of the modern world making Frum’s technological developnt grow as well.
(The technology of the modern world is quite powerful, being able to transmit thoughts without equalizing the magic frequency.)
Then Muspel ca out and sat on my right shoulder.
(That’s how it is, after all the modern world is a world without Mana. It’s only natural for humans to expand their knowledge if they want to develop.)
While exchanging opinions with Nifl and Muspel while waiting. Suddenly the carriage stopped moving.
Then the carriage window was knocked, I opened the window and a middle-aged Knight began to explain the situation ahead.
"What’s wrong?"
"That..."
The middle-aged knight looked confused about what to say, so I forced him to speak.
"Hurry up and say it."
"A-ah... There was a girl and a private maid stopped in our path."
Hearing that I was imdiately confused. Did that person not see the wolf emblem on the carriage?
But if the girl had a maid, it was most likely a noble. But why are they here?
The place where we stopped was a forest, and since we were in Wolfled territory, it was also a dangerous place because of the possibility of monsters that had escaped the wall appearing.
Even if there were no monsters, there was still the possibility of bandits appearing.
Although in the Wolfled territory it was almost impossible for bandits to appear, but still the Wolfled forest was a dangerous place.
(They seem to be naive nobles.)
"Bring them here."
The mont I said that, the carriage door opened.
(What? How dare they enter this carriage without my permission. Even if they’re Royal family, I can’t tolerate this-)
Just as I was thinking of telling the Knights to stop them, the door was already open and soone I never thought of appeared there.
"Good morning, Young Master Zend."
Standing there was a purple-haired teenage girl dressed in a black kimono. The girl who used to be a child was now starting to show more and more of the attractiveness of a woman.
"Why are you here, Yoon."
Standing in front of was my fiancé, Yoon Murasaki.
With a more feminine appearance, Yoon smiled at gently and bowed her head.
"I am here to accompany you, Young Master Zend."
"No, that’s not what I ant, that’s what I ant too. Anyway, why are you there Wolfled, do you have business with us?"
"Do I have to have a reason to et with my own fiancé?"
"...Ugh..."
Seeing her innocent and sincere gaze made my eyes hurt.
Yoon’s current behavior is really strange, no, his behavior started to get strange since my 12th birthday party.
From then on, no matter how many tis I tried to make the girl angry, Yoon didn’t get angry and even laughed and smiled sincerely.
Although sotis I feel like Yoon is carrying a lot of guilt and responsibility, I don’t understand it.
Even Nifl was confused by the emotions that Yoon had towards .
Not only that, Yoon has also started to improve his manner of speaking to beco more feminine. Even her behavior that seed careless and a little tomboyish gradually beca more feminine.
The girl also even participated in an activity called training prospective wives of teachers in Xian city.
Even so, sotis Yoon’s careless nature is still often seen. But I could feel the girl’s hard work to try to be better as if chasing after soone.
"I never asked you to accompany , I haven’t authorized it anyway."
"But Lord Aamon and Lady Chrona gave permission."
"..."
A direct answer without a second thought.
If it was the old Yoon, she would have been confused by my cold answer but over the past 2 years, this girl has really adapted.
"...Haa..."
I understand if it’s mom, but I didn’t expect that dad would agree to this as well. But I don’t think father’s decision is wrong either, since Yoon has the ability to help in an ergency.
"Take it easy, Young Master Zend. In case of ergency, I will heal you with my healing magic."
Yoon said with a smile.
Yes, Yoon was a healer. At first when I heard that the girl studied healing magic, I was very surprised.
Healing magicians are rare compared to Witches.
Healing magicians have the power to heal soone, they are different from Holy Knight who can heal themselves with Divine Power, but can heal others without the need of Divine Power.
But to train that power, it was very difficult, it was because the few people who had that power made it very difficult to find a teacher who could teach Yoon about healing magic.
Even so, the girl worked hard every day. I can say that because I always watch her. That girl was always healing people in every place, Wolfled territory, Xian City, even other places as well.
It was done without expecting anything. Even during these 2 years, I was often healed by that girl after being injured from fighting monsters.
Even though my mother, father and Hel kept asking to stop hurting myself, I couldn’t stop. Because I needed more strength, while everyone was scolding , that girl, Yoon, healed .
Although I could see the worried look in the girl’s eyes, the girl still healed without saying anything.
From then on, I beca a little too dependent on that girl’s healing magic. So I can’t say father’s decision was wrong.
"Tsk, whatever you want."
"Thank you."
Yoon imdiately thanked her. Then Yoon entered and was followed by his personal maid, Yukiko who was carrying a suitcase.
"Before that..."
"Yes?"
"Stop using the nickna ’Young Master Zend’, I’m a little uncomfortable if you call like that."
It’s honestly very uncomfortable, after all even though it’s temporary but that girl is my fiancée. And if my fiancé calls by such a na it is very disrespectful, as if I am more powerful than that girl.
I’m a person who likes an equal relationship in a relationship, so I was very uncomfortable with the way that girl referred to .
When I saw the girl’s reaction, the girl looked surprised.
"W-what?"
Seeing the girl’s reaction made a little worried, but the girl shook her head and smiled happily.
(Why is the girl smiling instead?)
(Looks like Master is a little insensitive huh.)
While I was confused, Nifl’s thought transmission passed by, but I didn’t get to hear what Nifl said just now.
"Lord Zend, then?"
"No..."
"Zend-sama?"
"No. Don’t use your local language."
"What about Zend?"
While Yoon and I were confused, Yukiko suddenly started suggesting using my na without any honorifics.
"Yukiko-"
Hearing that, Yoon imdiately tried to give a reprimand, but I answered first.
"That’s better..."
With slightly reddened ears, I proposed using that.
The reason why I was embarrassed was actually quite simple, because in this world, using a na without any honorifics ant that they had an equal and very close relationship.
It would have aning depending on their relationship. And in my case, Yoon and I are engaged. That ans using a na without honorifics has a very deep aning.
"..."
"..."
Instantly, it was quiet.
I slightly glanced at the two, and they looked extrely surprised.
"Tsk, if you don’t want to then don’t. Hmph."
Slightly embarrassed, I tried to change the subject but Yoon stopped that.
"No, I’ll use it."
"Hmph..."
With a snort, I looked back out the window. And there was the face of the middle-aged knight from earlier even with several other knights looking at us.
(...)
(They saw everything...)
(Hahaha!)
Nifl and Muspel imdiately gave their own reactions, and as for ...
"Why are you guys looking over here so casually! Get moving again! You useless people!"
With a trembling voice and a flushed face, I told the rest of the Knights to get back on their way.
"Fine!"
"Understood!"
Seeing my anger, the Knights imdiately returned to their positions. And I returned to my seat in sha.
(Damn damn damn damn damn!)
(Wahaha hahahaha! Nifl! Look at Zend’s face! It’s so cute!)
(Big brother!)
I’ll make sure to beat up Muspel one day...
"Ehe..."
I heard a small laugh, so I looked in the direction of the sound and saw Yoon who was smiling at .
"W-what?"
"It’s nothing."
"Tsk, then sit down imdiately. We’ll start our journey back."
"Okay, Zend."
