Surviving As The Protagonist

Chapter 39: Lucy is missing

After trying various snacks and circling several places, now Lucy just sits on a park bench near the fountain is, she complains tired with her legs are sore due to blisters. Soon the theater performance will be in the title, the girl said she wanted to rest for a while.

Sir Emillo and Flona also seemed to enjoy this event, it seems they also feel like they are bored to death because they only work without any consolation every day. Of course there are some maids who can get a day off on a memorial day like this, but only a few are selected.

“Before the theater will be started soon, hurry Miss to get a more comfortable place.” invite Flona when the tent where the theater began to fill the audience.

“A—ah wait a minute, I'm exhausted.” cleanly with a pale face. Not because he was really sick, but he was confused to find the current situation.

No gap, how is this? I have to get them close and chat alone, if I continue to be among them, then my secret mission as the Goddess of Asmara fails miserably! Ugh... What should I do?

Suddenly his brownish bead looked at a florist and also grilled corn lying in the opposite direction to the theater tent. He thought of a small thing, what if the arrival to the theater we postpone first?

“Flona.. My leg hurts, are you willing to buy me that wreath?” asked the girl with a face of compassion, Flona only responded with a small smile.

“Well, Miss wait a minute ya~” said he who shortly then moved to leave it.

“Sir? What the hell are you doing? Quickly accompany Flona, dangerous!” scorned with a riled up feeling, Sir Emillo who was silent with him now sighed.

“My job is to protect Miss, this is His Majesty's order.” his word is firm.

Glutton..

“Uhm... You don't need to be as worried as that, I can protect myself with magic, after all I forgot to say this! I actually want to eat grilled corn while watching later! Hehe~” he said in a small laugh. His face looked wrinkled, Lucy's orders were a little suspicious to him.

“Nona want to be carried?” ask the man sungh—really.

“T—no! I'm just waiting enough, is my request too excessive, Sir?” asked Lucy with her gloomy face.

At first glance, the white-styled man sighed somehow for how many times, but if the Miss asked so he could only nod in agreement. Soon after, he followed Flona who was buying flower arrangements alone, as Flona thought she wanted to keep them in her room later. Although it looks like the flower will not last long because it was thrown away withered.

Lucy just smiled by watching them from a distance, she thought this was a good time to act. Immediately he roused himself and went a long way, he felt Sir Emillo's intuition was not good.

If I did have a scuff wound on the leg, wouldn't I just need to heal it with magic? But..

“Hehe~ sorry sir~” yelp that has now established the heart.

Want me to step or run, you won't notice because there are too many people here.

Lucy now runs to find a small alley where she can cast her teleportation magic without needing to attract the attention of people around. After getting away from the crowd, his flickering fingers pulled out a magic circle and took him to the place he wanted to go.

I'm sorry sir, it's actually my goal to go out today to go somewhere alone.

...***

...

After buying something Lucy wants, the two of them return to the fountain garden where the Miss has been waiting for her, but there is no Lucy around. Flona now looks frantic with the disappearance of Lucy's whereabouts.

“No-nona where?” panicked with hands filled with flower arrangements. He tried to look for it by staring here and there, but what he got was a sense of dizziness because it was difficult to distinguish them from those who wore the same blue clothes.

Even so, Lucy may not be difficult to find because the mane has a golden color that always attracts attention.

“Quiet Miss!” choking Sir Emillo who now sees Flona quivering in fear.

“But Sir what if Miss is kidnapped?” said the girl with a panicked look.

“I don't think that's possible, because Miss Lucy can protect herself. She is a powerful witch, Miss.” she said, now accompanied by a small smile.

Degs..

“Ah— so apparently, I was only worried to Miss. because.” the girl chose to silence with the look of her gloomy face, she was not so brave to continue her words.

Since all this time Miss has only shown her weak side in front of me, I just wish that nothing bad ever happened again to Miss.

He only felt afraid, because in front of him Lucy had never shown a strong figure, especially after witnessing all the abuse he received by Lyonora without any resistance. If it turns out that Miss is as strong as Mr. Knight said, then it turns out that I don't know anything about Miss..

“What if we try to split up, it will be easier if we look for it that way—” his proposal who tried to step away first, it's just that Sir Emilo held it by blocking Flona's wrist.

After all, flona is my responsibility, I promised to protect her.

Degs..

The worry that enveloped Flona's body now changed with his shocked feelings after staring at her wrists that were warmly gripped by the white-blanked Knight. Somehow it felt like there was a bit of a strange turmoil beating in his heart.

“S—sir your hand..” murmured by covering the look of his face that almost turned reddish. His heart was cussing in annoyance, how could he be pounding in a situation that even looked precarious like this.

“Ohh... I'm sorry, I just don't want you to get carried away by the crowd. More and more immigrants. So Miss should be near me.” she explained who had no intention of letting go of Flona's hand. Even though the girl looked embarrassed, she just nodded her head in compliance with her request.

Accompanied by hard thinking, the neutrality never stops to look around. Sir Emillo only thought of a possibility that would happen to Nonanya, did Lucy run away because there was something bothering her while sitting near the fountain earlier?

If true, the woman should not be far from around here, and she is certainly easy to find because of her blond hair is striking.

“Nah Miss is calm?” ask the guy who wants to make sure he feels it. The woman shook her head.

“However, I will never calm down if Miss disappears like this.” watered down the girl in a sad tone. The man understood, of course he understood his feelings. Because he saw a family bond between them.

“Don't worry, we'll find it. It seems Miss Lucy is not far from around here yet, so let's go look for her.” she said with a small smile, Flona nodded with her mixed feelings.

Why do you notice my feelings, Sir?

It's too sudden, and it's also dangerous enough to bring Flona to Lucy's whereabouts, just that she can't leave the flona alone.

“Nona, do you mind if I hold your hand like this? I just don't want anything unwanted to happen to Miss.” asked the man carefully.

Sir Emillo just didn't want the woman to feel uncomfortable to him. His heart told him that he did not want them to separate..

“Ti—it's no problem, but Sir.how about the bouquet belonging to Miss. I have enough difficulty holding it if with one hand.” said the girl with a face that lowered in embarrassment.

Accompanied by a thin smile, The man grabbed a bouquet of peonies in his hand, “Let me take him.” he said with one hand still clasping their wrists.

Along with a small nod, they began to look for Lucy's whereabouts amid a crowd of people who began to enslave. Although they have been searched everywhere with all their power, they still have not found the whereabouts of Lucy.

At first Flona advised Sir Emilo to look for him in the Theater, because who knew Lucy who could not wait to leave them. It's just that it still doesn't pay off, because there's no visible blonde hair around there.

“Sir, if this is the case. How about we find Miss to the sidelines of the alley? Looks like that's the only place we haven't been.” his sudden suggestion inexplicably led to a hunch that Lucy was in there.

A moment later the man was determined to digest Flona's words, and soon he agreed to them. “It looks like the place is quiet. Let's go there Miss.. sooner found it seems better.” he said while following the direction Flona shows.

“Why suddenly think of gangs?” asked the man in wonder. Actually, he's not really thinking about this either.

“There is no special reason.I also do not know exactly what has happened to Miss. It's just.. if Miss wants to hide, then this is a suitable place.” he explained accompanied by a rapid pace. He only suddenly remembers something about Nonanya, which Lucy is someone who does not like to be the center of attention.

Miss. I hope nothing bad happens to you..

After running into a narrow alley and also deserted.Sir Emillo's sharp smell inhaled the fragrance of Lucy's perfume that flew in the air. The sudden stop of Sir Emillo's success made the girl sculpt while staring around.

“I smell magic. and also miss perfume.it seems like she did a small fight with magic.” thought that even makes Flona more trembling afraid to think of Lucy.

In the end they continued to walk down this narrow alley, until he found an alley junction filled with simple housing and some unique shops lined up. It seemed that their current place was located quite far from the main place where the Eternal Festival was being titled.

“There are three aisles, should we go where Sir?” ask the girl who is starting to get overwhelmed. According to his intuition, Sir Emillo felt that going to the right. He faintly heard his voice far away from them.

“Kanan.” said with great confidence. Flona could only agree to his request. But after going further in that direction, the alley was very quiet, they only walked armed with and only dim light.

Where is Miss actually? So thought the two of them, if the Miss is in a place like this, what exactly for? Did he really go this far to protect himself?

Until the magic energy was smelled again, his steps stopped after a long time went far. Lucy's perfume began to smell around them. Stared intently at an old antique shop standing in front of them. Flona and Sir Emillo were now just staring at each other as if channeling their same thoughts.

“Is Miss inside!?”
