8-7 Part 1
Unfinished Business in the Port City
of Naglfar
- The Journey and the Companion -
Translator : PolterGlast
After sending the rescued
children to Erin Village, they insisted on providing us with lodging, so we decided to impose on their hospitality
for the night. When the next morning came, we were thanked again for rescuing
the children and subjugating the Abyss Hounds, and then we headed for
the Maritime City Naglfar as planned.
「Well, let's let it slide that you
hogged the Abyss Hound kills. That's just how hunting goes! Setting that
aside, Shinzaaa, I am happy that we can travel togetheeer♪」
For some reason, Sigrun tagged along, though...
「Why are you following me...」
「Even if you ask me why! Well, the
report is in the Imperial Capital, but I can take a new job at the Naglfar
branch and report everything together in the Capital, you know?」
「So it's a coincidence.」
「No, I changed my schedule because I
wanted to be with you, Shinza. By the way, Shinza, if you're going to defeat
villains, I'll help too! Kufufu, believe it or not, I'm quite tight-lipped,
leave it to me!」
I think a tight-lipped person wouldn't make such a statement
in the middle of the highway in the first place... However, I didn't not
feel joy at the fact that she changed her plans to keep me company.
Just between us, I have very few friends... That's why
meeting Carral and Dulin was, deep down—no, it's nothing.
「Don't stay silent; at least tell me
who we're going to punish!」
「Wrong. I want to go around Naglfar.
Two-thirds of a lap.」
「Hmph hmph. And after that, who are
we punishing?」
「Walking around is the end of it. If
I get tired, I'll stay at an inn with good food.」
「Hohoo, so it's sightseeing! That
sounds good!」
「Sightseeing... well, something like
that.」
Should I learn from this over-familiarity of Sigrun's?
Her martial valor and ability to take action are certainly eye-opening.
Including the fact that she is always dignified, despite being a Horned
Species, a rare race in the Empire.
「Alright. I will go with you after all.」
「Why?」
「Because it looks fun, obviously.
Well, rest easy; if I get bored, I'll disappear as I please, but I'll stick
around until theeen~♪」
Without any regard for my will, it had been decided just
like that...
「Then why did you take such a liking
to me...」
「Hmm, let me see... If you were just
strong, I might have slashed at you not out of affection, but out of rivalry!
Even now I have the urge to do so, Fuhahaha! How about a match?」
「Georg and you are the only ones I want to avoid...」
「However, the number one thing is the
chivalrous spirit burning inside you! I fell for that precariousness and
nobility! You are strong, and beautiful! Just like a sharpened blade!
Therefore, I shall stick to yooou!」
I don't understand more than half of her logic. However,
liking the fragility and sharpness of a honed blade seems very typical of the
battle maniac Sigrun.
The female warrior with pale green hair and a single horn never shut up even when I asked her to stop, making the road to Naglfar noisy and pleasant...
