Apparently, the sand bandits, who have turned into one huge group, have invaded Embara.
The Embara side fought back with all their might, but they were overwhelmed by the bandits’ strength, and eventually, even the royal palace was overrun by them.
At the last minute, the queen escaped from the royal palace. However, despite the escape, they were continuously chased by the pursuers, and it was only earlier that they were finally cornered.
“Of course, I have no intention of continuing to run away like this! I will definitely defeat them and take back my country! I can only imagine how cruel they can be to my people… Kuu!”
Eleonore gritted her teeth in frustration.
Considering what the lustful men were trying to do to them earlier, it’s not hard to imagine what her people would have to go through.
“What more, Embara is an all-female country…… All my people…… they will fall prey to them.”
Eh? W-what did she say just now?
I thought I might have misheard it, so I asked back.
“You mean, it’s a country full of women?”
“Yes, that’s right. Our country, Embara, adheres to the policy of its founder and only woman can become its citizens. The whole city center is a no-man zone.”
“Alright, let me help you!”
I shouted vigorously.
“If those barbaric men ruled over your country, how many women would be subjected to such cruel treatment then? I can’t just ignore that! I’m sure Fana-oneechan, Anje-neechan and Lill will help out too!”
『Master, do you really think like that?』
(I want to have lots of fun experiences in a country full of women~~~!!)
『……』
Lindwurm looked at me like he’s looking at filth.
“Mm, of course.”
“Yes! I’m all excited to beat them up.”
“Of course, if it is Master’s wish.”
The three of them are also full of enthusiasm.
『They have different sense of justice than you Master.』
(But you know, it’s better to act hypocritically than to do nothing, right?)
“I appreciate the sentiment, but our enemies are strong. It would certainly be reassuring if strong people like you guys would cooperate with us, but… you’ve already saved us from a crisis a while ago. I don’t think we should trouble you guys any further than this.…”
Eleonore looked tangled by our offer.
“There’s no need to hold back. In fact, we are in the midst of training. I think this will be a good training opportunity for us. Besides, we’re the ones who are willing to fight, so there’s no need to worry if we get beaten up.”
“Mm, Master is right.”
Eleonore became teary eyed as she was impressed,
“……Thank you. To be honest, I didn’t think it would be easy for us alone. With your help, perhaps we…. Oh! By the way, there’s something that’s been bothering me for a while now…”
“Just how can you, a baby, taaaalk!!!?”
★★★
“Y-you really were flying in the sky!? To think that such a vehicle like this existed…..!”
I led Eleonore and her party to the magic airship. No matter how I think about it, this is the faster way to get around the desert. Right now, every second counts.
“And what a comfortable room temperature this is.”
“There’s also a bath, so feel free to come in. You guys are sweating, aren’t you?”
“Even something like that!?”
When I showed them around the public bath, they were overjoyed. Well, they were covered in desert sand and sweat after all.
“But at this very moment, my people could be suffering. To soak in the bathtub and relax at a time like this is not the right thing to do…..”
“No. I think you’re wrong with that. In fact, I think it’s better to rest and regain your strength right now. You can’t do something about it while we’re travelling anyway.”
“Is that so? Hmm….. I guess you’re right. Well then, I’ll take your word for it and go in then.”
Eleonore seemed convinced with my appeal.
“Un. Un. I think that’s a good idea! Then I’ll show you exactly how to use it! First of all, take off your clothes in this dressing room…… Eh?”
“Leave the rest to me!”
When I tried to guide them in the bath, for some reason I was caught by Anje and was thrown out of the public bath.
“That’s mean! I’m a 0-year-old baby you know! I should be allowed to take a mixed bath!”
『An old man, who is over 100 years old inside, is saying something. 』
