Chapter 110.2 – The Guardian Knight Who Lost His Lord

Well, I can’t say you are wrong.

However, why did Herman keep quiet about the imperial granddaughter? Perhaps he thought that I wouldn’t help him if he told me.

「Kaara is not far off the mark. The fact that the imperial granddaughter remains may eventually become an obstacle to our domination of Germania.」

「I suppose so.」

Kaara, who was also familiar with the Germania’s situation, boasted and puffed out her chest that’s about the same size as her half-brained head.

No, she wasn’t that bad. She’s a genius when it comes to magic. I’m just feeling sorry because her intention and her ability are not equal.

「However, the general, who is said to have initiated the coup, is going to be a rather nasty and powerful enemy. The imperial granddaughter will surely choose nation’s father over that person and…..in case they get in the way, we can always take care of them.」

Sensei commented in a murmur with what Kaara had said in the end.

I thought she was a demoness who was planning to revive the demon king but thinking about it carefully, I don’t know when this advance mage Kaara will be erased by sensei.

Be careful not to get in sensei’s way.

「That’s not it, nation’s father! I’m not scared!」

「Yes yes」

「That human warlord, ehto, ehto, he said he’ll bring this imperial granddaughter into the ruse! He said he’s fine killing women and children, even a spoiled brat like me! However, I know I’ll be okay since nation’s father will stop him!」

「Yeah, yeah, right.」

TN: Lines above are Kaara making up a dialogue story.

Sensei, if you decide to kill her now, I won’t say a word. No, kill her now, I’m serious.

Without enough reason, I think she should die.

「It is also the military strategist’s job to predict what is about to happen and give the monarch suggestions even if the monarch herself doesn’t like it.」

Sensei used her short wand with a relaxed expression.

This is how a military strategist should act.

And Queen Silhouette entered.

That’s right, I have no right to decide in this matter as well.

「Takeru-sama, you’re going to rescue the emperor, aren’t you?」

「Yes, I’m sorry. I have to leave the castle.」

「No, I’ll be a good wife and send you off. This is the reason why this lady became the queen. I’ll be the one staying home.」

「I have a good wife.」

「However, come back as soon as possible.」

I guess this is what she truly wishes. I nodded, hugged, and kissed her.

I kissed her and she kissed back. I guess I should talk to my other wives too.

「Ano, nation’s father…」

Kaara looked at me with a complicated expression.

That’s not something you should show others. It’s embarrassing.

「Kaara, this time, I’ll rely on your flight magic so please do me a favor.」

「Yes, by your will!」

She looked so happy that I swallowed my comment that she was useless other than being a taxi.

My “mithril armor” is convenient for being resistant to magic and we’ve been through a lot so I think I’ll have Louise wear the Orichalcum armor I got.

Louise’ fighting power will be strengthened again.

---Scene Change---

「Wait a minute, please take this with you.」

When we were about to leave the castle, we were stopped by sensei who brought a rucksack.

Checking what was inside, I found that it contained a lot of bullets for the magic gun.

「Do we need this much bullets?」

「Takeru-dono, please think about it carefully. If you wield the sword of light in Germania’s capital, you would be advertising that the hero of Silesie had come to visit.」

「I see. That would be bad diplomatically.」

The situation of Germania, which is divided, is fluid. It is better to avoid making a complete enemy of the coup d’etat army in the imperial capital as much as possible at this stage.

This is basically a covert mission.

「Yes, well, it can’t be helped if it’s dangerous. I also think that this is a good magic gun training. Well, it’s a gun that shoots gold coins so I don’t want to use it too often. But, hey….it’s good that we were strengthening our military.」

She added another line cutely. Is she casually appealing to me to give her more money?

As expected of sensei, she’s very shrewd.

「Thank you, I’ll use it.」

「Ah, well, then, nation’s father, I’ll give you a present too.」

Kaara gave me a black robe that I haven’t seen her wearing much recently.

The black robe is certainly a good cover for mithril armor and since it has a hood, it’s perfect for covert operations.

「Ah, this thing is what Kaara used when you were still a hidden mage.」

「Nation’s father, can you stop spreading my dark history? This robe itself has a small magical effect of invisibility. If you wear this cloak, you won’t stand out.」

Hmm, not bad. The size fits perfectly too.

The well-worn, slightly faded jet black robe looks cool and it would look great fastened at the shoulders and worn like a cloak over the armor.

I’ve thought of an alias too. ”Drifting gunner” or “Black Musketeer” would be good.

My chuuni blood, which had been sleeping for a long time, began to stir.

「Thank you and sorry for giving me such a valuable item. This robe is very important to Kaara, right?」

「Don’t mind it. I have three more black robes like that and I wear them all the time.」

I see. It’s a little awkward as if I’ve revealed her poor fashion sense rather than her black history.

Why not enchant different color or something? You’re not even a man and you dyed them all black.

These demons only have swimsuit-like underwear when they take off their robes.

One of these days, I’m going to make Kaara wear something decent.
