"When did you arrive at the Labyrinth City…?"
"Yes, it was around midnight yesterday…"
I knew about it, but I refrained from accidentally going to the Corps where Zena san was because it would make me look like a stalker…
These girls stayed at their base during the parade so I mustn't know that they were here…
"Excuse me…"
"All right, all right, part now…"
"Nn, shameless…"
Tiane and Mia pushed themselves between Zena san and I who accidentally spoke while hugging and separating us…
Zena san who noticed that we hugged parting away while swinging her hand, said “wa wa wa.”
"I'm, I'm sorry, I ..."
"No no, I'm glad you're happy with our reunion…"
Zena san unexpectedly has a passionate side, yes…
He also hugged me, like a tackle, when I escaped from the labyrinth of Seryuu City back then…
"You two seem pretty close, don't you…?"
"Will you introduce him to me…?"
Miss Karina put her hand on my shoulder and grinded it from behind…
When I looked towards Miss Karina, Princess Mitia and even Totona looked at us curiously…
Huh…?
Totona should have met him, right…?
"He's someone I owe a lot of gratitude to during my stay in Seryuu city, one of the magic soldiers of the territory army who came from the home of Chevalier Marientail, Zena san…"
I've heard the name of the house before, but this is the first time I've said it…
I always called her Zena san…
The way I introduced her looked bad, Zena san's expression was slightly pensive…
Maybe I should have said that he was my friend…?
Behind us, the surroundings started buzzing about the rumors of Seryuu city, like, “The city is safe even though the high-class demons attacked it” or “They are ruthless troops whose army even fought wyvern.”
It must be quite popular to make a lot of people know about it even though it is a region located on the other side of the kingdom from here…
"Oyy, Black Spear Lina released her spear…"
"So the rumor says that the city soldiers of Seryuu treat wyverns like they are small fries is really the truth…" "
"That girl looks innocent, but don't you think she's very sweet…"
All around making a fuss…
Should we move to a Guild business room where only the holders of Red Iron and Nobles can use it…?
"My abilities may be lacking, but please command me if you need me for anything…"
"If Master permits, I will hurry soon…"
"Ohh no, your thanks are enough…"
Zena san was confused because of her sincere words…
Although the dragon was still impossible for Lina and Tiane at the moment, he could easily do a solo like fighting a wyvern…
"Hey, introduce him to me…"
The incredibly friendly Miss Karina is currently asking me so…
Someone broke through when I opened my mouth to introduce Zena san to Miss Karina…
"Hhh…!"
"Lina Chan, why are you still here…!"
"Lina and Tiane, quickly go to the stage…"
"I've asked intro people to stall their parts, but they can't keep doing it forever…"
Jenna and Iruna from [Beautiful Wings] who were in charge of the stage had come to call Tiane and the others…
Come to think of it, Tiane and Lina said that they were going to take the stage…
"Uwaah, I forgot…"
"Mrs…"
"Quick…"
"Ohh no…"
"Karina, let's go together…!"
"I want you to see the dashing figure of Ciel and his friends up close…!
Miss Karina was pulled by Ciel from both sides towards the stage…
He called my name even though while being withdrawn, he might have some business with me, but I can listen to him tonight…
He probably came here without thinking without arranging the inn…
"You're also Secilia, please come and look on stage…!"
"Yes, of course I'll go…"
I replied positively to Lina who asked to confirm it and sent her out by waving her hands…
Princess Mitia also said, “I should definitely listen to Mia dono's performance!” And then he pulled Merian who seemed to still have something to say towards the stage…
"Master, I declare myself to gather Shino and Crow…"
"They may be tired of waiting, you must quickly gather them…"
Cronoa resigned and went to the orphanage…
I thought Totona would say that she would come back to pick up the kitchen knife…
"Totona, when you're going back to pick up the kitchen knife, tell the girls sitting at home to prepare a separate room…"
"Karina is the same and her servants will probably stay there…"
"Y, yeah…"
Preparation for their inn should be fine with this…
"Secilia san, umm…"
"He ... Um…"
Lina and the others are important to me, but if I have to say, they are more like family or family to me…
Miss Karina feels like an annoying junior or my boss' daughter…
Right at that moment, the rough sound of an adult man who could not read the mood cut through…
"Black Spear Lina…!"
"I'm a Sunny from『Knight of White Spear』…!"
"I challenge you to a match…!"
"Hoo…"
"So you're an insect who wants to challenge me…"
Lina looked at the challenger with a cynical look and humbled her opponent…
"Bagimana Secilia…"
"Just do it…"
"Don't kill him, understand…"
"Well, it's game time…"
"Haha…!"
"Now is your only time to be able to talk big…!"
As bloodshed was forbidden within the Guild, Lina and him went to the arena space while in front of the Labyrinth Army fortress…
This arena space has been built because there are usually a lot of people who start to experience fights during the peak of a festival and the buildings can collapse if they fight recklessly with their high strength…
"Umm, Secilia san, it's okay if you don't follow them…?"
"Ohh it's okay…"
"Lina can defeat him without any injuries…"
There is a level difference as well, it will probably end up with one side of the game…
If I go see her, Lina will have high spirits and her opponent will probably get hurt…
After the four of them finished registering as explorers, we exited the Guild together together…
Zena san and her comrades will meet with fellow territorial soldiers in front of the west gate to enter the labyrinth in an hour…
It has not even been a day since they arrived at the labyrinth city yet they were already about to enter the labyrinth, quite aggressively…
Although I guess we weren't talking about challenging the labyrinth on the same day it arrived…
"Have you bought the terms…?"
"Yes, we have been told to only prepare our own equipment because the engineers will be the ones responsible for the provisions…"
I see, the engineers thought it was rude because there seemed to be 12 people inside…
"Zena cchi, we'll go to the stall to fill our spirits…"
"Ruu san, you don't need to talk unnecessary things…"
"Zena san, be careful not to be late for a meeting, understand…"
"Mou…!"
"Everyone is like that…!"
"Should we go, Zena san…"
"Y, yeah…"
I took Zena san's hand so she wouldn't get lost and went to the stage where Tiane and his comrades were performing…
From now on after the parade, some foreign explorers and townspeople called me [Young Miss]…
As expected of high-class company employees…
Really thoughtful interaction…
Let's give them a generous tip when I visit them with the people [Pendora]…
This place has seats not only for nobles, but also for us as the main actors today, but only Miss Karina and her servant, she said, and Nana who was with Shino and Crow on both sides was there…
I would head there as well, but ever since Tiane's stage began, I decided to look at it from the general audience seats…
Since Lina had a fight, then only Tiane had appeared…
"The music is amazing, isn't it…"
"I wonder if the light orb behind the girl produced a sound…?"
"Yes, it looks like it's a fairykin magic called『Instrument Player』…"
"However, the music is amazing because the players are experts…"
"Yes... That's right, I can understand…
"That's a very beautiful voice…"
Mia who is doing the orchestra alone is definitely amazing, but I can't make Tiane who is accompanying her sing the anime theme song…
While listening to the song, I healed myself by seeing Ciel dancing on stage by matching the song…
Several shrill sounds hung on the venue as the two flew in the sky in pixie suits…
When I listened carefully, it seemed like Ciel was also singing while dancing…
I guess the singing that comes from that place is the children of the orphanage…?
Tiane who was singing with his entire soul did not notice me, but it seems that Ciel noticed him, they waved their hands while spinning in the sky…
I waved back at them, which seemed to have made them happy, the number of rotations in the air increased…
After Tiane and his partner on stage finished, I enjoyed the festival together with Zena san with a snack of some meat skewers and potato chips made from Hopping Potato around the stall…
It reminded me of the time when we were touring the stall in Seryuu city…
Right, ever since I was introduced to the Seryuu city special products by Zena san back then, let's introduce him to the special products here this time…
So I thought, I went to the store owner who showed off dried fruits, but…
"Sorry, the palm is sold out…"
"The cargo coming from the western part of the continent has been sparse for the past half a month…"
Unfortunately, out of stock…
The owner of the san shop recklessly joked, “Demon lord may have been revived outside the deserts”, but I can't laugh because it sounds possible…
We watched the Dismantling Show Totona Labyrinth Monstrous Fish and enjoyed the freshly made fried fish…
Since the fish was a bit strange, Zena san hesitated to eat it, but she decided on her own and put it in her mouth after she saw me eating it…
"Puzat…!"
Zena san opened his eyes wide from shock…
"Unbelievably, it feels so soft even though it looks like it…"
"It looks like a croquet from the outside, but it's soft and crunchy in your mouth, it's really delicious…
"Otherwise, it goes well with white sauce…"
After finishing chewing it, the impression got out of Zena san…
The fried fish he was holding disappeared into his stomach in the blink of an eye…
"Even though he's young, he's amazing…"
"Totona's the greatest chef in the labyrinth city…"
I left my compliments, “It feels good”, on Totona and handed the place to another guest…
It has a surprising queue just for this delicious food…
I pushed the little maid girl who helped Totona and then escorted Zena san to the west gate…
Unfortunately, we're running out of time…
"Zena cchi, it's fine if you're a little late…"
"I can't do that because I'm squad leader…"
"Did you go with him…?"
"Yes, and this is a gift…"
From my bag, I took out a small bag containing some healing potions and magic recovery potions as well as some versatile antidotes made from dragon white stone…
Magic Potions have ordinary effects because they are formulated by others…
Zena san refused because they were expensive items, but that did not continue because Iona san beside her received them…
"Has all the members gathered together…?"
"These people are the explorers who will guide us this time, Heliona dono, daughter of Baron Ketel and Gina dono, daughter of Chevalier Daryl, both of [Moonlight]…"
The young knight who seems to be captain Zena san and his comrades introduced Miss Gina and Miss Heriona who was introduced to me…
According to the indications, Miss Heliona and Captain shi seem to be related
Miss Gina noticed me after she finished greeting Zena san and her comrades…
"Ch, same Chevalier…!"
"Please continue favo…"
"Relax, Gina…"
"That's the line for marriage…"
"Chevalier Secilia…!"
"I'm trying to chase after you who are the holder of Red Iron, but I don't expect that you will defeat the Floor Master and obtain Plate Mithril…!"
"Allow me to selfishly make you my goal from now on…!"
"It's an honor…"
I wonder since when did we become rivals…?
If I'm not mistaken, I've only spoken to Miss Heliona once…
"Chevalier…?"
"Secilia…?"
Zena san looked dumbfounded at me with wide eyes without any light…
His words were disjointed for some reason…
Huh…?
Didn't I say it…?
Come to think of it, the townspeople until we came here all called me [Young Miss]…
But, is it really something surprising…?
According to Consul Nina, many people are appointed low-level honorary knights in any region every year…
"Have I not said it yet…?"
"Actually, I have been given the honorary knight rank of Baronet Muno, so I am called Chevalier Secilia now…"
"Ehh, then, the main actor of this festival is you…?"
"To be precise, one of the main actors…"
"There are a lot of people challenging the Floor Master…"
More to the point, the lead actresses are our girls, I'm just a bonus…
Captain shi who could not read the mood shouted “Then, let's go!” with a bang, and the Seryuu Earldom Army people started moving towards the labyrinth gate…
"I will guide you to visit recommended shops when you return from the labyrinth…"
"Will you hear the full story when it happens…?"
"Y, yeah…"
"Sure, okay…?"
I promised Zena san that she still had not recovered from her shock…
I wanted to go along with him, but Zena san's standing would fall if outsiders tagged him with military training into the labyrinth, so I held back…
The guides were both people from [Moonlight], so they did not enter so deeply…
Let's make sure the security with the magic [Clairvoyance] occasionally…
I forgot to ask their itinerary, but they probably won't be entering for a few days on their first attempt, I guess I'll order some restaurants and take them there every day until I leave for the Royal Capital in five days…
During the days he hasn't been out yet, I can only tell an acquaintance who has worked hard like Bu Miteruna instead…
What was waiting for me when I returned to the venue was the complaint of Miss Karina who was in the noble seat and attracted the curious eyes of the audience…
Although Miss Karina was beautiful, she was not used to the gazes of strange people…
