We had been making progress in the Eastern Frontier territory without any particular issues, but now we are entering another territory.
First of all, it is a small barony, so I am very worried about whether there are soldiers guarding it along the way.
“We don’t know what’s going to happen from here on out, so let’s all be careful.”
“““Got it~”””
“Fufu”
When I said that to everyone, Shiro, Fran, and Horn raised their hands cheerfully in agreement. Ao also raised her tentacles to show that she got it.
Sue couldn’t help but giggle when she saw Shiro and the others like that.
However, we really have to be vigilant, so we continue our carriage journey while being vigilant about our surroundings.
““Toh!””
“““Gaun!”””
A pack of wolves appeared on the highway, so Shiro, Ao, and Fran charged at them while we provided cover fire with magic. To be honest, the wolves were no problem at all.
I asked Ao to drain the blood of the defeated wolves and then I quickly put them in the item box after they had been drained.
Then we set off again.
The reason why we are in a hurry is that the weather is looking gloomy.
Pitter-patter.
“-Uh, it’s raining.”
“Oh no, will we still make it to the inn in time? Everyone, put on your coats.”
“““Okay”””
Just as we were about to arrive at the village inn in about 30 minutes, it finally started to rain. It’s still small drops now, but just in case, I have them put on the cloaks we bought in the Eastern Frontier.
Fran and Horn are chatting while showing each other the coats they had chosen.
(Sound of the rain’s heavy downpour.)
“Thankfully we managed to get here before it rained hard.”
“Yes, thankfully.”
We arrived safely at the village where we will stay tonight. Looks like the carriage will also stay at the same inn.
When we arrived at the inn, it started to rain heavily. We really did get to the inn at just the right timing.
This village is a fairly large village for a barony, and the inn was a well-built building.
“You made it just in time, lad.”
“That’s true. If we arrived a minute later, we would have been soaked.”
The innkeeper, who has a good physique, also said that the timing of our arrival at the inn was good.
“I’m going to sleep with Shun-oniichan today.”
“Then Fran will sleep with Sue!”
“Horn will also sleep with Sue-oneechan.”
“Hey, you guys, why don’t you sleep on the bunk bed?”
“““Don’t want to!”””
“Hahaha, it’s good to be on good terms.”
I booked a room with two bunk beds, but Shiro and the others didn’t give up sleeping with me and Sue here either.
The innkeeper laughed seeing us.
Well, I guess there’s nothing we can do about it.
“Apparently there have been a lot of robberies in the capital lately. It seems the lord is having a hard time dealing with them.”
“I see…”
While eating dinner, I ask the innkeeper about the security of the barony, and as expected, it doesn’t seem to be very good.
We have to protect ourselves by keeping our clothes to a minimum huh.
““Hug-hug””
Pat, pat.
““Hn?””
“It’s nothing.”
In particular, Fran and Horn are still small, so we have to take care of them. I stayed alert as I patted their heads as they looked up at me curiously.
