The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee Chapter 133 – Cruz’ New Manor

Chapter 133 – Cruz’ New Manor

Translator: ranzan

That night. After the evening, my knee began to hurt again.

But it wasn’t that bad of pain.

Yureena said she might have to cut the thing out again tonight, but with this pain, it seed to have slowed.

Yureena checked and said,

「There’s almost no stone growth today.」

「Phew…glad to hear.」

「I think the growth rate might be affected by magical power consumption.」

「Or maybe because Cruz was around and stopped the growth through her healing.」

「Eheh heh.」

Cruz blushed again.

「Thanks for your help as usual, Cruz and Yureena.」

「No problem!」

「Well, I AM the party healer.」

Such kind girls. I was thankful.

That night I slept without waking up once. Maybe because Cruz was sleeping beside the whole ti.

Very thankful.

◇◇◇

The next morning Timisoara was at breakfast. Millet and her seed very happy together.

「Sighisoara! You look cute as usual!」

「Ryaa ryaa!」

「Hey! Sighisoara! Don’t hit! It hurts!」

Timi picked Shiggy up and rubbed cheeks with her. Shiggy patted Timi’s nose.

At first Shiggy seed to dislike it, but that changed quickly.

「Shiggy, don’t hit.」

「ryaaa」

I grabbed Shiggy’s hand and stopped her. She got quiet.

It was also important to teach people…or dragons…not to hit.

Nice to see that Shiggy would listen to too.

「Thanks for listening to Shiggy.」

「ryaa ryaa」

Shiggy cried out happily.

「So what happened to the magic transfer circle?」

「Well…」

We explained how the richalcum shield that was engraved with the magic circle was taken away.

While we ate breakfast.

「Wow! That’s horrible.」

Timi seed to like Millet’s breakfast. She gobbled it down quickly.

As I continued explaining, I fed Shiggy while eating myself.

「So we were thinking of going to the ruler’s manor.」

「Good. I’ll let you ride . Right Shiggy?」

「ryaaa」

Timi wanted Shiggy to fly on her. It was the perfect opportunity.

When I finished breakfast, I registered Timi as a friendly on the danger detection circle.

It wouldn’t sound the alarm even if Timi ca flying.

Then Cruz, Shiggy, Vi-Vi and I all got on top of Timi and took off.

Moofy wanted to co, but we left her. Village defense is important as well.

Femm was still scared of Timi as well, so we left it behind so it wouldn’t get close.

I put my wolf mask on just in case. It would suck if soone saw .

「Hang on Shiggy! You can ride on any ti!」

「ryaaa」

Timi was proud of herself and Shiggy was also in a good mood.

I had to hold Shiggy down as she was trying to fly out of my pouch.

Then I stuck my head into the wolf mask.

Flying quickly is probably irresistible fun for most dragons.

Vi-Vi was behind clinging on for dear life.

「Too fasttttt! If I fall off, I’m DEAD!」

「Wow, look at her go!」

Cruz was standing on top of Timi’s head.

Timi flew pretty stably but Cruz standing like that took so guts.

Timi traveled a day’s ride on a horse in less than an hour.

「Is that the ruler’s manor?」

「It’s the first ti I’ve seen it.」

The manor, was of course, Cruz’ manor now.

It was normal for rulers to not live in their manor, but they have to co to see it soti.

「It’s good to co once in a while, Cruz.」

「Yes sir!」

A Cruz-like reply every ti.

「Cruz, where should I land?」

「Sowhere with a wide area.」

She had to land in a place where no fields or buildings were damages.

Timi was so huge it was hard to do that.

「If you have to, use the nearby forest!」

「That’s a defensive forest against invasion. Better not to damage it.」

「Is that so? Thanks for telling .」

Cruz was impressed with my words, but we could see people in the manor going crazy.

Timi’s a huge dragon. It’s a natural reaction.

「Look! They’re getting siege weapons ready! Is that a barista?」

Timi says and laughs.

「ryaa ryaa」

Shiggy laughed as well.

「What should I do? If they aim a weapon at their ruler, don’t they get punished?」

「If I leave it to you Timi, you’ll blow away the whole manor. If they shoot, leave the defense to .」

「I see. Their weapons can’t hurt though.」

I then looked at Cruz, standing empty-headed on top of Timi.

「Why don’t you scream that you’ve arrived!?」

「Okay!」

So Cruz screams,

「Cruz is HERE!」

That’s not really what I ant.

She needed to say that she was the new ruler Marquis Cruz Coradine, and to toss their weapons aside and co out to et her.

No one knows what 「Cruz is HERE」ans.

And since Timi’s flying in the sky, hardly anyone can see Cruz anyway.

Fwiss Fwiss and huge arrows flew at us from the baristas.

I knocked them away easily with magic.

「Timi, they don’t get it. Shout at them a bit.」

「Hiiiiiiie!」

Vi-Vi covered her ears, and I put my hand over her ears too.

Then I called out to Timi,

「Timi! Not too loud! You’re going to cause a disaster!」

Mainly to Vi-Vi’s lower half. Maybe to Cruz’ officials down there too.

Clean up would take so ti.

「Leave it to .」

「The hero that is the ruler of the region, your lady, Marquis Cruz Conradine has arrived! Show so respect and welco her!」

They finally seed to figure it out. The officials move out quickly to et us.

Cruz skipped up the dragon’s neck to and whispered,

「Aren’t you making look a little TOO good?」

「You are good, Cruz.」

「Well…I;m not that big of a deal.」

「Cruz, you’re the ruler. You can tell any of these people to do whatever you need for you.」

「Okay. I just don’t want them to find out who you are, Al. That might cause so trouble.」

This isn’t the first ti I’ve acted as an underling of Cruz. Cruz is used to it too.

An old man ca out as we landed.

「That’s the assistant.」

Cruz told .

「Sorry about coming so quickly, but the marquis wanted to co quickly, and because of this, this dragon was commanded to carry her.」

「Thank you for coming.」

I whispered in Cruz’ ear.

「We’ll get off first, you get off last.」

「Okay.」

「Land anywhere you want, Timi.」

「Sure.」

Timi was royalty so she knew… well, she was a royal dragon.

I can leave it to her to land regally.

I used gravity magic on Vi-Vi and I, and we slowly lowered to the ground.

With that, the assistant seed to lurch back…but that might have been the effect of the wolf mask.

No, it was probably the gravity magic.

Then Cruz sprung off of the dragon. It was quite a way up, but she did it with little expression.

「Marquis, I’m sorry for the rude greeting.」

「Yeah, no worries.」

「What is it that you need?」

「Explain, Alra. By the way, Alra is my right hand man.」

She knew if she called Al the guy would know. Cruz was being considerate.

Timi looked at proudly as my dragon na was used.

So I said to the fellow,

「Please call the tax assessor for Mulg Village imdiately.」

「Why would you need…」

「We’ll tell you later.」

「I will call for him right away, but it will take him two hours.」

「Then, hurry.」

The assistant used his magic tool in a hurry. It had to be to calls the assessor.

Then the assistant guided us through to the manor.

I bowed to Timi. Timi began hovering over the manor’s house.

「Timi, what are you doing?」

「The building’s too small for .」

The assistants all looked scared at a dragon that knew human speak.

Even if it used spirit speech, it would still be hard. Still it would be proof that the dragon was of high class if she spoke with it.

But she didn’t use spirit speech, just normal human speech. It’s much harder for a creature to do that.

I couldn’t imagine how high up the chain of royalty this dragon is. It was astounding.

「Timi, why don’t you co and talk inside?」

「If Alra says so, I shall.」

Timi suddenly sunk and shrunk to human form. She was dressed already.

Or maybe her clothes were of magic.

「C…co inside.」

The frightened assistant guided us in, and we entered Cruz’ manor.
