Three men and a woman head north on the road, but never seem to get tangled up with bandits.

Lunamaría chuckles at the mention of it.

"Master Will, it's not a story, you don't have to meet the enemy every time you walk.

It's hard to believe that a saintly woman whose encounter was surrounded by enemies.

Karen laughs too, but she had the same kind of encounter.

But Karen ignores them and says proudly, "This is the security of the Midonian kingdom.

This Midonian kingdom is one of the safest in the world. It's so safe that a woman can travel alone if she doesn't leave the streets.

It is.

Runamaria following.

I came alone from the temple and didn't see any demons, except when I went off the road by mistake.

I see, that's what it's all about.

There were certainly guardhouses and cavalry patrols every few kilometers.

The roads are paved and well paved, and there's nothing shady about them.

Well, it's best if you don't get into any trouble. It's important to be safe.

Yes.

And the ladies who nodded their heads in approval, but not to get into trouble, but to cause trouble.

After a few hours of walking, Miss Karen sits there and flounders.

Ugh, I'm so tired. Let's take a break.

Hearing those words, Lunamaria lowers her eyebrows.
She lets out a breath.

"...... Ms. Karen, didn't you just take a break and utter the same line earlier?

Yes, but a tired thing is a tired thing. Will, please give me a piggyback ride.

Karen opens her hands and asks for me, but I can't put her on my back because Lunamaria is in great shape.

She seemed to be glaring at me through her mask, telling me that I shouldn't spoil her.

The look on her face was frightening, and it was certainly not good to spoil her too much, so I told her to walk on her own two feet, and Karen blurted out, "d*mn it ......" and started trudging along, but that was only for five minutes.

I can't do it~. I can't walk anymore. My legs are sticks. Let's stay in a nearby village.

Karen makes such a suggestion, but sure enough, the area is dyed red.

We need to set up camp or find a place to stay.

I don't feel comfortable leaving the young lady out in the field, and since she's wealthy, I can't afford to pay for the accommodation.

I've decided to arrange a place to stay, but the journey of a few kilometers to the village seems to be difficult for her now.

I'm thirsty. I want to drink juice.

Karen looks hungrily at my back as she wriggles around.

Lunamaria is dumbfounded and wondering if I should carry her on my back.

I was going to do the same, but then an idea popped into my head.

Now that you mention it, there's a tradition I've been meaning to try.

Is it a legacy?

Yes, I have a book about an alternate universe that my dad had, and there's an episode in it.

"What episode is that?

A hero named Cao Cao encouraged his thirsty soldiers that there was a plum tree on the other side of the hill. Then the soldiers thought of plum trees and salivated.

I see, you're imitating it.

Nodding, I whisper to Karen, "Yeah," she says.
"There's a peach tree on the other side of the hill,

Hearing those words, Karen's face lit up from her groggy expression.

"Peaches are eaten by the wise men of the East, right? I wonder how sweet they are.

He stood up and ran across the hill at a trot.

"You're a cash girl,

Luna Maria smiling at the scene.

I let out a smile as we agreed and slowly walked up the hill.


Karen looked down at us from the top of the hill and
"This way!
And waved them off.


After climbing the hill and walking a few hundred meters, Karen puffed out her cheeks with a "pukhhhhhh".

She looks at me and chastises me.

"Master Will is a wicked one. He's a liar. He tricked me out of my innocence.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but you could still walk.

"...... it is,

The village is in sight, and we can stay there and have some juice.

"Do you have peach juice?

I can't promise that, but I can get a hot meal too.

Karen rubs her belly when she hears of a hot meal.
She looks hungry.

It's been a long time since we've had a hot meal. We haven't had a hot meal since the day before yesterday when we were so frightened of the attackers that we couldn't find a place to stay.

You've been on the run, haven't you?

Rest assured. With Mr. Will, every thug is a twist.

And Lunamaría proudly says, arriving at the village.
"This is a village. I've never seen a human settlement before.



At the entrance of the village, there was a sign that said "Welcome to Kukuriko Village.
The village is famous for its pumpkins".
It seems to be a friendly and homey village.
I walked into the village with a lot of excitement.
