Episode 325: Wonderful escort

We transfer to an open land in the forest of a mountain with a good view, and pitch tents for men and women.

"Fuwaa ~ , Onii-chan, we're going to sleep, okay?"

"Oh, get some rest."

"Fuwaa ~ i."(TN:Yes(Hai), the yawning version.)

As soon as the tent is set up, Nanami, Shia, and Amane rub their sleepy eyes and enter the tent while yawning.

"Mira, aren't you going to sleep?"

"Umu. I just woke up. I'm not sleepy. I wonder if I should go for a short walk."

I wondered about Mira, who was the only one who didn't enter the tent, and when I asked about it, Mira's answer was a perfectly natural story.

Certainly, Mira woke up in the evening. It was also from a sleep of several hundred years. So, it's natural that she isn't sleepy.

"I see. Are you okay by yourself?"

"Who do you think you're talking to. I'm still the True Ancestor of Vampires and the last King. I won't lose to regular humans."

I am worried about Mira, so after confirming it, she crosses her arms and boasts.

However, because she looks like a little girl, I don't feel any sense of intimidation or authority at all.

However, Mira is mistaken.

"People aren't like they were during the time Mira lived in. They all have powers like us."

Yes, unlike in the past, there are people like us who have become explorers and have powers that exceed those of ordinary humans.(TN:Except for you and your party which far exceed every other explorer ever ...)

On top of that, Mira only knows the world of when she was awake previously. The world has changed a lot in the last few hundred years.

It's too dangerous to go for a walk alone in such a situation.

Having said that, I don't think anyone would come to such a mountain. It's a precaution just in case. If Mira is kidnapped without doing anything, or if she got hurt, it would all come to nothing.

"Th, that's scary. A, after all, I really want an escort."

Mira, who hears my words, asks for an escort with a feeble voice that doesn't make me feel the slightest bit of what she said about being a King earlier.

That's it!! Since this is a rare opportunity, let's get to know each other.

"Fu!Fu!Fu! Why don't we get a wonderful escort for you?"

"Really!?"

When I lift my mouth up like a mischievous child, Mira waits for my reply with her eyes shining.

I don't know what she's expecting, but what will appear here belongs to my family's healing category.

"Ah, of course. Luck."

"Won!"

That's right, my subordinate demon, who is super talented and can easily conquer even a country, Luck-kun.

"Hii!"

As soon as Luck comes out, she hides in my shadow with a short scream.

She was away during the operation.

"Mira, your escort will be our most excellent Luck-kun. Please rest assured."

"H, how mean!!"

When I speak with a smile, she looks up at me and shouts with an expression that seems to say that Mira has been deceived.

Fu!Fu!Fu. I didn't say a single word that I would go, nor did I say that she would have a male escort.(TN:So ... does that mean Luck is female?)

She's really surprised.

"What are you talking about? Isn't Luck so cute? Use this as an opportunity to get along."

"Won!"

With a smirking evil grin on my face, I move next to Luck and hug and stroke it, and Luck cries as if to say hello to Mira.

"Nnhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!?"

Mira is frightened by Luck's voice and runs away.

After all, she calls herself the True Ancestor of Vampires, and seems to have overwhelmingly high physical abilities compared to ordinary people.

She's pretty quick.

Even so, she's far from Luck's speed.

"Well then, Luck. If anything happens, I'll leave it to you. Also, I think there's a Kagema waiting near Rei, but when Rei's errands are done, pick her up and bring her here."

"Won!"

Luck nods at my instructions and chases after Mira, who happily runs away. With that state, Mira will be caught soon.

After seeing off one person and another, I enter my tent and fall asleep.

"Nn?"

When I wake up, I hear voices outside.

"Ah, you seem to be awake."

"Seriously, Nushi-sama is cruel."

Mira and Rei are outside.

It seems that Mira returned safely from her walk, and Rei from reporting.

"Rei, Mira, welcome back. Thank you for your report, Rei. Good work."

"I, it's okay. I'm doing it because I like it."

I greet the two and express my gratitude to Rei.

Rei, who is still not used to being told such, blushes and looks embarrassed.

She looks happy, so I'd like to convey it in words in the future.

"Don't worry about that, Nushi-sama, I'm hungry!!"

"Right, it's already lunch time. It can't be helped."

It seems that I was asleep and it's already past twelve o'clock.

Mira begins to yell, and Rei answers in agreement.

"Really, well then, let's wake everyone up and go eat. Come to think of it, we forgot to eat the yogurt-based gratin in Bulgaria yesterday due to the thing with Noelle."

"Hou? I don't really understand, but I want to try it too."

Mira leans forward in reply to my suggestion.

Mira still doesn't know about the current era, so she's curious about cooking because she doesn't know anything about it, and she approaches me.

"Alright, alright. Well then, let's go eat that for lunch today. Rei, wake everyone up."

"Understood."

I stop Mira and ask Rei to wake up the sleeping girls, then we transport to the place to eat Bulgarian food.
