Chapter 294: Ace Knight Corps Seducer
The city of Catalina is very functional. It may seem depressing to be indoors all the time, but I’m used to it and find it quite comfortable. We’re going to be here for a few days until Dianne and her team finish their work, but none of us are feeling particularly anxious. In fact, the problem is the lack of tension in this fort, where there is no major invasion going on.
“Good morning. I’m Kawaiko of the special duty corps……no, I’m here to greet you all”
Morning. When I woke up in the girls’ room, I heard someone’s thick voice.
“Who”
Anzeros, who seems to have woken up earlier than me and was well dressed, screams with a dignified voice behind the door.
“I am a member of the Celesta Army Expeditionary Elite Infantry Corps, a special formation under General Kingfisher”
“……Ace Knight Corps?”
“I think that’s a good abbreviation if you want to refer to us as your countrymen”
The words are hard, but the voice is rather fluent and I can sense a peaceful reserve.
“I’ve been trying to get in touch with you since yesterday, but due to my immediate arrival, I was prevented from doing so by the general and reverse hair. That’s why I came this morning”
“……Let’s wait a bit. There are a lot of women, so it takes a lot of time for the troops to look presentable”
“I understand. Hey, it takes time to get dressed”
“Hey Hey, that’s nice. That’s a very sexy story”
“If you’re a man, come out in two minutes and you’re in good shape”
It seems that he finds sex appeal in the fact that we make him wait. So. I’m currently in Apple’s bed, enjoying Sharon’s naked tits with my cheeks and Maia’s ass with my fingers. Or rather, I woke up in that position. Apple, the owner of the bed, was hurriedly getting dressed, while Almeida was lying in the corner of the bed, unconscious from sex and would be in serious trouble if he stepped in.
“Sh, Sharon, wake up”
“N……a, hua…… Is it morning……?”
“Ace Knight Corps is outside, they want to say hello”
“……Nu……u”
Sharon bends her body while lying down and stretches only by her posture. It feels good that the big but unshaped boobs are pressed a little strongly……no, it’s not. I’m a little impatient and Aurora, who was awake like Anzeros, uses her comb to say.
“It would be nice if we could get out without waking up Sharon-san. There would be no reason to put a stranger in the bedroom”
“That’s true. I mean, we’re still sleeping, so I hope the Celestans can do it together”
Naris also rubs her eyes and says so. But when Sharon gets up, she approaches Naris naked and swings her pillow of her wisteria knitting down on her head.
“Atee!?”
“Thank you is a thank you. It would be strange to say hello again later because we will meet each other. Get up early, where is Tetes?”
“Tetes-chan is……oh?”
Tetes are gone. But then she opened the door and came into the room as normal. The people outside seemed to have caught a glimpse of Sharon’s muffler and there was some kind of shouting from behind the closed door.
“Hello. I’ve been checking the contact status of each place at the communication magician for a moment……you are still there, 10-man captain Smithson”
I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know that the special duty corps are going to have a formal meeting with the people on the outside……”
“Ahaha. I don’t know what kind of eyes they will have when you come out of the girls’ room”
“…………”
The guy who came to talk to us, Kawaiko-chan, wasn’t he? It is true that there are many beautiful women. He’s thinking of greeting a beautiful woman and getting along well. If a man had blended into the room of these beautiful women early in the morning, he would have been looked at very carefully. No, even if it is a fact that the female slaves relationship will eventually leak out, there is no need to introduce yourself in such a challenging way from the beginning.
“Andy, would you like me to send you off in an illusion?”
Maia suggested, letting me feel her slightly low body temperature directly against my skin. Tetes was a little troubled by the suggestion.
“I’m sure half of those people can use magic. There are some who are experts at breaking illusions”
“Is there such a thing? How can you tell?”
“Because I checked the personnel in advance with the materials of the Royal Intelligence Service”
No, it was this child’s habit to investigate like that. ……Then how can I get out of here? Maia isn’t bad at magic either, but I’m worried when it comes to competing with professionals who handle illusions.
“……Already. It’s a loan, right?”
Tetes smiled and moved her own bed with a smile. It’s a bit surreal to see a solidly built bed being moved around by one rather small girl, but that’s okay. She’s a Red Arm. Underneath the bed, which had shifted halfway to the side, was a wooden board about a meter square. Or rather, something that looks like a storage door under the floor, which is sometimes found in normal houses.
“Wh, What’s that!?”
Naris was surprised and looked under her bed.
“It’s not there. ……It’s an emergency escape route from Catalina’s design. If you leave here, you won’t run into those guys over there”
“Oh”
As expected, she is an intelligence officer. Did she see through a strange gimmick?
“I owe you”
“No No. I’m loaning it?”
……It was emphasized. I wondered if she was planning something, but I couldn’t help but put on my clothes and then slip into the floor door. Anzeros is letting me hold it while she talks to the outside sometimes, but that won’t fool them for long. We have to hurry.
“Ah, 10-man captain Smithson”
“What”
“You’d better take a rope. Maybe”
“?”
Tetes handed me a bundle of ropes and I crawled through the dark passageway.
I soon learned why.
“Uwaaa!?”
The exit was an outer wall. ……Is this really an emergency 「Escape」 route?
-
I played a bit of climber action with the ropes and went back inside the fort through a window a few floors below. Thank goodness there were no witnesses. Then I hurried back to the original layer and was treated like an unimportant person by the Ace Knight corps that was meeting us.
“10-man captain Andy Smithson. I’m a former platoon leader of the crossbow team”
“Yeah, I’m Jonathan Smiley. An Ace Knight and 100-man commander. You’ll have to ask the rest of them yourself”
Except for the leader, 100-man commander Smiley, the rest of the people were totally ignorant of me. They’re enthusiastic about the beautiful knights lined up.
“10-man captain Anzeros, no, I really can meet you! No, it’s quite famous, the beheading sword!”
“Knight Chief Sharon is really beautiful! It’s a good thing she’s a southern elf princess”
“Emm, 10-man captain Aurora, I’m actually a classmate of yours from the Ace Knight exam……do you remember?”
It’s completely pick-up time. On the other hand, Anzeros and others couldn’t shake them off suddenly and they laughed loosely and amiably. It was a very awkward face-to-face time. I’m a little bothered, too. Just as I was about to make a move, even if it meant being treated as a little bit of an airhead, Great Knight Chief Annette appeared from behind a corner. Just as I was about to make a move on her, Grand Knight Annette appears from behind the corner with a smile on her face. And she smiled without reading the air at all and called out foolishly, 「Hey, wicked sister!」.
“Great Knight Chief Annette”
“Let’s practice together downstairs for a bit! Let’s do that! Or perhaps I should say, be my partner! I’m super free”
“I’m in the middle of greeting the new arrivals from Celesta……”
“Ah? That’s the bird’s crew. Okay, you guys, come on! Let’s see what you can do!”
『Eeh!?』
The Ace Knights all shouted in unison. Sharon and the remaining Red Arms sighed all at once after a moment of eye contact.
“The people of Celesta……I mean, they’re quiet, aren’t they?”
“Indeed. I thought knights were supposed to be a little brave when it comes to arm wrestling”
The irony of Sharon and Almeida is that the Ace Knights get stuck and lose momentum.
“Oh, you were there, Afilm’s spear dance! You and I fight a little okay!”
“Sp, Spear dance……well, it doesn’t matter. ……Well then I now”
When Almeida resigns, the Ace Knights, whose excitement has cooled down at once, are reluctant to say the following words. There, Anzeros salutes.
“We’re done for the day. ……Some of us have plans for the next one. Let’s work together from now on”
“Ah, yes”
It was a bit of a forceful way to end it, but it worked out. However, I feel like I was just saved by the Great Knight Chief Annette.
Sharon and Almeida practice with the Great Knight Chief Annette. And then me, Anzeros, Aurora and Maia flew to Dianne’s construction site.
“Ah, I’m glad you’re here. Maia, help me secure the logs right away”
“Ho. There is a good windbreak cave on the mountainside over there. Owner can rest there”
“Rest……I haven’t done anything since yesterday, so I’m not losing any energy and I’m really free”
“If that’s the case, then mingle and have fun”
I don’t like it when you say it like that, Laila. It’s midwinter now, so the outdoors are shrinking. ……Neia invites me to work without seeing me in trouble.
“Why don’t you carve out a board together?”
“A, Ah……I mean, did you do this alone!?”
Behind Neia, there is a pile of wood that has been cut into boards. Even if you combine the wall materials and floor materials, I think there is enough space for one house. Since Dianne and her team are building a simple hut, they can probably afford to build several houses with just this.
“It’s not the only material they’ll be using, so they’ve asked for more”
“How did you get all this done in one night……”
“If you look at the grain of the wood, it’s easy to do in quantity”
The logs were piled up on the floor and Neia set them on the floor. It’s a trick that is impossible for ordinary people, but it makes the axe taken out quickly dwell in the light by casting a spell lightly.
“What’s that?”
“It’s an axe”
“No, you’re casting some kind of spell”
“Yeah. It’s a hardening spell, or rather a protection spell for the tip of the blade. It’s just magic”
She raised the axe with one hand, jumped up, flipped her short cloak and flashed it vertically. A shocking sound echoes and the log cracks.
“Yoo, to!”
Neia flew even lighter, spinning once, twice, three times. Then, with a swoosh swoosh, the log splits and forms a plank.
“……Neia, you’ll make a fortune as a carpenter”
“Yes?”
“Even a professional ogre carpenter can’t process a board this easily……”
I mean, where is there room for my turn in this feat?
“Huhuhu, it’s interesting. Let’s make effective use of the slashing wave”
“You know, Aurora……can you shoot that fine?”
“I have to try it to know for sure”
Aurora pulls out her sword. Dianne suddenly appears there.
“Aurora, that’s fine, I’d rather you cut the board horizontally. Neia is good at breaking it in a straight line, but cutting it across is a saw”
“I’m ashamed……”
No, it’s great enough.
“Well then……teii! Haa!!”
Aurora swung her sword. The vacuum blade strikes the wood and cuts it without mercy.
“Ooh. You’ve got a good handle on it”
“You can’t be a force to be reckoned with if you can’t do this”
I’m not sure if it’s because she helped develop the technique the first time, but Neia was deeply moved by it.
I’m not sure if I should come up with some kind of carpentry special move”
“Relax, Anzeros. Do you have any doubts about the character of the carpenter’s special move”
It may be useful, but it’s not something a hero or an infantryman would do.
The only thing I did was hammer in a few nails. I didn’t take on any of the work and we all did it together to speed up the completion of the hut. I felt a little depressed as I rested in the cave after finishing my work.
“I wish I could have been a little more helpful since I was the man in charge”
“Hoho. Don’t worry about it. Dragons are power. You have me and Maia to replace your arms”
“Yes”
“……But you see, I’m a craftsman”
It’s a good idea to work with a blacksmith and a carpenter, but I want to rely on making things.
“Smithson-san is suitable for hero orientation”
Neia smiles as she sips tea warmed by Laila’s flames.
“?”
“They say that if you can’t always find a place where you can be useful, you’re a second-rate hero. Smithson-san has the support of many people, but he will never, ever stop working for himself because he is proud of it”
“……That’s not what I meant, though”
I’m not going to stop working because I don’t feel I’m qualified enough to be the 「Master」 of the girls. That’s it. It’s not that I don’t like the idea of working with them, it’s just that I don’t think I’m disqualified in the least.
“My predecessor used to say that bravery is ultimately a decision to take the initiative. ……Smithson-san is not much of a fighter, but maybe that’s what being brave in a peaceful world is all about”
“…………”
No denying it. If Neia found it, it shouldn’t be denied. It’s shy to call me that, but I hope Neia will someday be able to choose that way of life.
“Now that we’ve secured the materials, we’ll be able to bring them in from here, which will speed up the construction”
“Ho. I have to get back to Polka as soon as possible. We can’t let Jeanne, Selenium and Luna worry”
Everyone sips tea at once and stands up. The towering brand-new stilt observatory was sloppy but had a nice scent of freshly cut wood. Well, I guess my new house will be ready soon. I’ll do my best to repay the Baron and Irina for giving it to me.
