115. The Unexpected Reinforcement Is Someone You Know, Isn’t It?
A wyvern suddenly appeared from the sky, cutting through the fog, and bombarded the hydra with fireballs.
On its back rode Kyle’s father, Margrave Ortros Gandarl von Veil Road.
“”Father!?””
Kyle and Zaid shouted simultaneously.
“The Margrave is a dragon knight...”
“...Yes. Few people know this, but he bears the dragon knight’s crest.”
Margrave Veil Road repeatedly hit and ran with the wyvern.
The hydra’s attention was divided between the sky and Raidoc.
Of course, Raidoc and the others wouldn’t miss this chance.
“We got it! [Crimson Ascending Dragon Strike]!”
“Just fall already! [White Heat Ray]!”
“How dare you target Kyle-sama! [Spiral Gale]!”
One after another, powerful techniques were unleashed, centered around Raidoc and Eva.
The top adventurers of the Golden Dawn launched a simultaneous attack.
Of course, the wyvern’s fireballs were also tremendous.
And finally.
Gyaaaahhhh!
Slowly, its massive body collapsed.
It was the end of the giant eight-headed hydra.
Everyone present remained vigilant, but Camille slowly approached the hydra and murmured.
“We did it.”
After exchanging glances, everyone raised their arms and cheered explosively.
“Woohoo! We won!”
“This is our victory!”
“Damn! That was tough!”
“Lord Raidoc!”
Amidst the joyous shouts, I started running with all my might.
“Brother!?”
“I’m bringing Myrna!”
“Craft! Don’t go alone! ...Damn! That idiot!”
Raidoc and Leafan quickly followed, but I ignored them and kept going.
“Myrna!”
I dived into the shelter where she was hiding.
“...!”@@@@
Myrna, curled up with her knees hugged, looked up with a start.
“Good. You’re safe.”
I sighed in relief.
I was worried she might have been caught in the hydra’s massive water attack.
“...Late...”
“Sorry. But we took down the scary hydra.”
“Mm!”
Myrna jumped at me, hugging tightly.
I slowly patted her head.
“You did well, Myrna.”
“...Mm...Mm!”
Myrna, pressing her head into my stomach, took out the rabbit doll she had entrusted to me.
“...Mm.”
“Yeah.”
I tied the rabbit doll to my waist, and Myrna tightened her hug with satisfaction.
As I gently patted her, feeling sorry for scaring her, I sensed an odd presence behind me.
“Oh... I see. Craft has that kind of hobby, huh?”
“Heh. I see. So that’s what Craft’s into.”
Turning my head, I saw Raidoc grinning and Leafan with a complicated expression.
“I always wondered why Craft, who’s quite popular, never had a girlfriend.”
“Huh!?”
“Wait, Craft’s popular?”
“...Ugh?”
Raidoc’s teasing made not only Leafan but also Myrna look up.
Unperturbed, Van nodded at Ortros.
“Jabil, state your opinion.”
“Yes! This is mere speculation, but I believe Zaid-sama was likely cursed. As for Kyle-sama, I cannot be certain.”
“Hmm...”
While the discussion continued, Zaid remained deeply bowed, almost like a different person.
“Jabil, if Kyle and Zaid were cursed, who could have done it?”
At Van’s question, Jabil-sensei closed her eyes and furrowed her brow.
It seemed difficult for her to say.
“...This is still speculation.”
“No matter. Speak.”
“...I was both Zaid-sama’s personal physician and examined Kyle-sama multiple times. Only one person could have acted without my noticing.”
Jabil-sensei opened her eyes with resolve.
“Zaid-sama’s mother, Bella-sama.”
Kyle and Ortros widened their eyes.
Hey, hey, hey! A crime committed by a family member!?
Bella was the flashy lady who suggested taking the original Golden Dawn village from Kyle and giving it to Zaid, right?
Ignoring my doubts, Van nodded deeply.
“Ortros! Return to Gandarl immediately and apprehend Bella! Take Zaid with you and throw him in jail!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“I will travel to Gandarl by land. We will discuss further once we reunite there.”
“Will you not travel with us? My wyvern can carry three people...”
“That would work if it were you and two women, Ortros. I am heavy. Speed is crucial now. Go, Ortros!”
“...Understood!”
After kneeling and responding, Ortros spoke to Zaid in an emotionless voice.
“Zaid. Let’s go.”
“...Yes.”
Without resistance, Zaid obediently followed Ortros, and the two flew high into the sky on the wyvern.
“Now, Kyle.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Van turned his gaze back to us.
“You are to return to Golden Dawn, handle the aftermath, and then head to Gandarl, Ortros’ domain. Do not forget the key members involved in this event. Decide who will attend the meeting on-site.”
“Understood!”
It seemed the decisions for the future would be made in Margrave Veil Road’s capital.
“Temporarily, Kyle will be the acting overseer of Zaid’s village.”
“Understood.”
“Now, Craft.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“Idiot. Right now, I am just Van. No need to be formal.”
No, no, no!
How can I act normally when Margrave Veil Road and Kyle are bowing to you!?
“Haha! Just kidding! But once we leave this tent, treat me as an adventurer.”
“Is that... an order?”
“Hmm? It’s a request from a friend.”
“...Understood.”
Ugh. Fine. I’ll treat him like a regular adventurer!
“So, what will you do next, Your Majesty?”
“As the king, I will head to Gandarl.”
“Understood. We will provide an escort.”
“Hmm? What are you talking about?”
“Huh?”
Kyle’s confused response was understandable. I didn’t get it either.
“As an adventurer, I will tour Golden Dawn! Then I will accompany you to Gandarl as your escort.”
“What!?”
I couldn’t help but shout in surprise.
That level of informality would normally be grounds for execution.
“Alright! Show me your town!”
Thus, the king’s impromptu and secret inspection was decided.
“...Van! As a temporary adventurer, listen to what Raidoc says!”
I shouted in frustration, and Van smiled wryly while Jabil-sensei held her head in his hands.
