Nowhere in the kingdom
A rattling carriage goes down the street. Some distance after leaving the barrier, there should have been a town. When you came, did you stay one night there and go to the barrier?
Since there are relatively few people, we are not going as fast as we did when we flew into the Empire. The only way to achieve that speed without get noticed is to wait for mass production.
This time we know that it can be put to practical use, and that day is not far off.
As I was looking forward to doing so, Camillo and Katerina started talking.
「Speaking of which, are we moving yet?」
「Yes. It wasn't on a very large scale but it seems some in the capital noticed.」
「It was really close.」
「yeah」
「What are you talking about?」
I asked Camillo.
「The Marquis's stories.」
「Oh, .......」
A story about taking advantage of the chaos and having a little bit of imperial territory. From the way they spoke earlier, the troops must have already moved on.
I wonder what will happen to the barrier I saw earlier. I would not want to see any damage on either side.
I didn't ask for further details, considering Helen's situation.
The mountain where the barrier was located passes in the far distance. It is gradually becoming more secure, but it is not completely safe.
「Hey, Helen.」
With Camillo beside her, who was asking Katerina about the recent developments in the capital and the city, I called out to Helen, who had been completely quiet since getting into the carriage and Helen turned to me.
「What are you going to do when you get back?」
「Hmmm ...... what should I do ......」
There was nothing special about it, apparently. Helen turned over and began to ponder.
「Ah ...... that's it, Eizo.」
Camillo responded instead.
「Can you keep her at your place?」
「At home?」
「Where do you think is the safest house to look around the kingdom?」
「Probably ours.」
Unless you have a house at the top of a mountain that you can see when you go to the capital, there is a possibility that our house is one of the safest houses in the world, if not the kingdom, while it is located in a dangerous forest and even has magic to keep people away.
「 If it bothers you, fine. Don’t want to be annoying」
Helen answers that. Nevertheless, I shook my head.
「It's not a nuisance, If that's okay with Helen, I don't care.」
「How about everyone else?」
「I don't think they'll mind.」
Sammy、riku、Diana、Liddy、and krull。 We have a family of four plus one dog, and they are all very friendly. I can't imagine Helen, who knows my face and has stayed with us, being opposed to becoming our (temporary or not) family.
「We've added another family member since that one. It's a lively place.」
「I see Then I'm going.」
「Done!」
Camillo closed with a loud voice, and the atmosphere on the carriage was a little more cheerful.
Then I would join them and listen to what they had to say about the city. It seems like I have been away for a very long time, but it's only been 8 days or so, so apparently nothing serious has occurred.
The revolutionary upheaval in the empire is not being conveyed today, only that the marquis is secretly moving a very small army and those with a good ear are noticing and wondering what is going on.
「Still, it's going to be a bit of a mess from here on out.」
When I said that, Camillo
「I suppose. There would be no talk of revolution in the kingdom, but there would be those fleeing the empire and even if suppressed quickly, the empire would be occupied with domestic affairs until things settled down. Then it wouldn't surprise me if there are other countries that think the same way the Kingdom does.」
Moreover, they return it. Whether that thing, which is happening a little closer to the shore, succeeds or fails, there is no way that the kingdom will not be affected.
Camillo and others will make a lot of money on it, and I'm sure they are already prepared, but I'm just an old blacksmith. There is nothing better than to live in peace.
「Just don't let it soar. ......」
「I won't let that happen. Me, maybe Marius, too.」
Camillo declared in a strangely clear tone, and Katerina nodded vigorously.
