The next day. We assembled in the guild to discuss future policies.

The members gathered are Brightle, the Alliance Master, and Maia with assistance. As an adventurer, Leese and the four of them and me.

"Just now, but I want to start talking. I wrote to the Imperial Alliance yesterday with an early horse. We're going to talk about the lord after this, too."

Even if the letter arrives in the capital, it will take a few days. It will take as early as ten days to reach this city, including preparation.

It's a critical situation now, but it's not strange whenever there's a flood.

"Honestly, there's nothing we can do about it now..."

Gard seemed to know, including his own strengths.

I'm not going to speak aggressively either because I don't know the power of the city right now, but nobody else speaks aggressively.

"Just hope the flood doesn't happen until we get backup..."

"Call the residents to evacuate..."

"I can't tell residents. Because only the lord has that authority. If I told you as a guild... you'd be evacuating - an adventurer without ties to this city, wouldn't you? If you're an adventurer based in this city, you'll listen to my words, but you can't force an adventurer who's just visiting this city with an escort. A forced request from a lord for an emergency would be possible..."

Sure, some adventurers who grew up in this city would stay to protect their families, but if you're just in this city, you just have to move. An adventurer can only live.

Same with me...... I know I can't run away because Brightle finds out my identity.

"I want to meet again tomorrow. reply from the lord will also be taught then"

Everyone understood and was dissolved that day. The whole time Reese had a rugged look on her face, but she seemed to grow up in this city and I don't think she had a choice.

◇ ◇ ◇

The next day. We got together the same way, but Brightle's expression was grumpy itself.

"You fucking lord. I will never forgive you! What's" I'm going to the Imperial Capital myself to call for backup "! You want your life and you just want to get out of this city!

Brightle's story said he had planned to meet with the Lords in the afternoon to explain the current situation and ask them to write a letter for support from the Empire City, but began to say that the Lords themselves would request support from the Empire City, leaving the city early. Slowly in the carriage with a few offerings.

I can't say anything either because I'm stunned by Brightle's words...

Though I've just replaced him, I have no attachment to this city or anything else. Even I'm trying to protect him, but the lord at heart is here...

"So what do you do as an guild...?

To my inquiry, Brightle opens his mouth after sending his gaze to Chirali and Reese.

"... I can't help it as it is. Representing the lord's sister, asking her to direct the guards and take command of me and Lord Towya as a whole."

... Is the lord's sister still there... Even so, wouldn't it be normal for a brother to let his sister get away with it first?

"But my sister and I can take command?

I have never heard of a noble lady taking command, etc.

"About that...... I'm supposed to head to the mansion to talk after this. I want Lord Towya with me."

"- Okay. I don't have anything else to do, and I'll accompany you."

Gardo and Jill leave the reception room with Leese and the others, whispering a novel.

I also moved to the Alliance Master Room, killing time until I got to the Mansion, and then took a carriage with Brightle to the Lords Mansion.

The Count's residence, the lord, remains scarred of war, but he says it can be used without any problems.

But the majority of his squire, he said, headed with his lord to the Imperial City, where he was idle.

When guided to the reception room by a squire who picked them up, Brightle and I sit on the couch.

"- I'll tell him first. Don't be too surprised, huh?

A door was knocked and a squire came into the room when he tilted his neck, not knowing what Brightle meant by his words.

After that, my lord's sister - eh ⁉

Reese came in. Myra is also following me back there.

Wear a dress that looks like a noble courtier, not the usual outfit of an adventurer. Is Myra dressed as well, weaving white robes?

Reese wore thin makeup and was beautiful enough for the adventurer to come and go, but she looked beautiful in her dress.

... Is this what Brightle said...

I guess I was surprised to open my mouth with a poker. Reese looked at my face and chuckled.

"You still look surprised. Yes, I am the lord's sister, Lieselotte von Lithardt."

"This is Myra, Master Lieselotte's escort."

"You're playing too much, Miss Lieselotte. I've been representing adventurers today..."

"Yeah, right. I will also deal with you today not as a B-rank Adventurer Liese, but as a Lords Acting Lieselotte."

"... do the Gards know? That Reese is noble and Myra is an escort."

Reese shakes her neck to the side in my words.

"I don't know you two. Myra explains as a friend of mine."

I was wondering if Brightle handled it differently here than he did when he was in the guild, but now I'm convinced.

After I was convinced, Brightle explained the future measures, and Leese and I decided to come up with an opinion.

Several of them are monitoring the forest as a request for nomination in the Adventurer's Guild. He's moving so that if there's any movement, he can handle it early, but if he can, he really wants to make a demonic break.

Some demons are high ranked in the woods, and if they come out of the woods at once, they can't cope with the city's power.

"I hope there's some good way to intermittent the demons... Miss Leezelotte's party is not enough. Now I need you to stay in the city as a lord's deputy."

"That's why a stronger party than ours..."

Everyone's gazing at me. This is still what happens......

"Lord Towya... can you help me, please? To save this city..."

Brightle bows his head at me. Leese and Myra are just a little surprised by that attitude.

"I can't believe the Alliance Master lowered his head himself... Toya..."

Myra also leans her neck as she seemed to wonder.

"Towya, please from me, too. I know how strong you are. I know exactly what you're saying. But I have to defend this city as a lord's deputy. If you refuse, as a nobleman - I have to command you. But I don't want to."

Reese sees my strength. But to be honest, I don't want to be ordered. Even if it is His Majesty the Emperor.

"Miss Liezelotte, Lord Towya has no orders to be a nobleman. - I can't."

Brightle pinches his mouth quietly.

"... as a nobleman, only when the city is in crisis can it be ordered through the Adventurer's Guild by treaty?

With the exception of man-made wars, etc., we know that natural disasters, demonic floods, etc., can be ordered by lords through the Adventurer's Guild.

But that's just for adventurers.

Brightle seems to understand that. I can't help it if it stays like this. You'll soon find out who you are...

Sigh once and stare at Reese.

"- On condition, I'll work with you for this city, too. as the role of the same aristocracy (...)"

Brightle opened her eyes just a little before smiling. You seem to have guessed into my words. I bow my head deep again.

"Thank you for your cooperation. - - - His Excellency the Marquis (...) ……"

"".................. eh ⁉ ""

Reese and Myra's words overlapped. I am distracted by Brightle's unexpected words.

I put the Marquis's badge from His Majesty on the table from dimensional storage.

"Marquis Touya von Kisaraghi. That's my official name."

Leese and Myra's eyes opened so wide in my name. My mouth is trembling with crocodiles.

"... could it be... of the Redemption, hero...?

Brightle nods loudly at Reese's plundering words.

Honestly, I'm ashamed of that name...... That's why I came all the way to this city hiding my identity.

Suddenly Reese, sitting across the street, got herself up and wrapped my hands around her.

"No way...... really ⁉ really Toya saved this country, that Marquis of Xaragi ⁉"

"It's subtle that you saved this country, but I'm certainly the Marquis of Xaragi..."

Reese's face so far seems to be a lie. Unlike usual, you suddenly seem excited to shine your eyes and don't let go of my hand. I was going to pull my hand in, but I hear Reese isn't going to hold my hand forcefully.

"Oh, um... Toya, dear... don't hesitate to give me a hand for this city"

I laugh bitterly, too, like Reese has changed before.

"Master Lieselotte is a fan of the Marquis of Xaraghi..."

"Myra!!"

Reese turns to Myra's words and stares at Myra.

"'Cause... you see, you're still not letting go"

Myra's words let her gaze down into her own hands haphazardly, and when she noticed, she let go of her hand in momentum and her cheeks stained red.

"Chi, no! I was so surprised I forgot you were holding my hand!

I adore Reese for blushing and desperately elucidating. Me and Brightle laugh unexpectedly.

"Reese, no, I guess I should call you Miss Reese Lotte. Let me hunt demons as much as I can. I just have a condition."

You felt your face tightened, and Reese tied her mouth, too.

"I don't mind staying Reese, is. No, please, call me Reese."

"Okay. The condition would be to have the demon material I've been hunting removed in my guild, but if I can't, I want you to buy it as a lord. I'm going to hunt a lot, but maybe I'll run out of guild money."

There is a significant amount of demons in dimensional storage (storage) alone. I don't know how much there is in the guild but I'm only certain it will be significantly reduced. It is also possible that other adventurers will not be able to ask for it once the funds are exhausted. That's all I want to avoid.

"Okay. I guarantee you about that. 'Cause I'm pretty sure it's more minor than damage to the city."

Now there's no more hunting losses. And then...

"And don't worry, I'm going to be hunting in a cage in the woods for the next ten days."

"... that's ⁉ dangerous. How dare you reveal the night in the woods!!"

"That's right. That's right, Master Leezelot is worried..."

"I disagree, too. It's too dangerous. I can't admit it as an Alliance Master."

I just disagree. Honestly, it would be safer to get out the guild house and sleep in the woods than the mansion...

Would you be honest with me about that......

"You know my dimensional storage (storage) is huge, right? It also contains objects that allow you to sleep with a demon shelter. So don't worry..."

If you don't see people in the woods, you can safely get out the guild house (house), and you can make Ferris. I've been busy lately and haven't let you out, so I have to let you out once in a while...

"There's a demon shelter and the demons don't lean on it. ⁉ Then I'll accompany Master Towya!

"If Master Lieselotte is going, I'm going, too."

I want to hold my head unintentionally to the words of both of us. But I'm in trouble if Leese doesn't stay here and get the soldiers together.

"... Leese will stay in this city and have a job as a lord's deputy..."

"Just go away..."

You ever think about my words. Spin your mouth. But still, I can't seem to give up.

You can go to the woods without convincing me like this, but you can't keep worrying about these three.

"... ok. I don't mind if you just accompany me for one night. Reese, if that convinces you, give Brightle an explanation."

How happy my words were, Reese smiles in full.

"I get it! I'll have it ready in a minute. Huh!

Without having to respond, he stood up and Leese left the room.

"... excuse me, Master Towya. Master Leezelot is also in a straight line...... I'll get you one, too."

Myra also leaves the room after bowing her head.

"It's the two of us, so let me break the word, but are you okay with saying that...?

Brightle still seems anxious. I guess he thinks the place to stay is about the tent too.

"I'm really fine. It's been proven. His Royal Highness Charlotte has also stayed there. I've never even been complained about the equipment. Don't worry about that."

If they tell me I have no problem staying at Her Royal Highness, they will have nothing to complain about or say.

"... ok. I asked for Miss Lieselotte."

I snorted heavily at Brightle's words.
