--Main Street of King's Landing.

　The main street of King's Landing, which I've gradually grown accustomed to.

　The streets are lined with shops, and there are many stalls on both sides.
　The shouting and cheering of the vendors poured down like a shower.

　In the middle of all this, Futa and Korona were walking.
　Today, they had one more child in between them.

"Loomp-pa-pa-pa-pa!
"Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop!

　Corona sang along with Ruri, who was in a good mood, waving her hands in the air.
　Even in the wide alleyway, the smiling scene attracted attention, and a friendly atmosphere enveloped the area.

　Today, I was going to go to the Orba Chamber of Commerce to take Ruri back to Wind.
　As long as Lilac had given me permission, I could have kept her, but I had already made a promise to Wind.

　Besides, we had agreed to work out the details of the deadline.
　It was necessary to discuss the details of how long I should keep it.

　And.

"Hey, that's Futa-kun.

　A familiar voice made Futa turn around.

　What he saw immediately were a number of soldiers.
　Looking at their armor, he could tell that they were guards from the outer gates of the capital.
　At the head of them stood a girl who looked familiar to him.

"Prim?
"Hi. What a nice combination. Hello.

　Corona and Futa. Corona and Futa, and Ruri holding her hand in between.
　Prim waved lightly at the unfamiliar girl.

　Ruri lifted her hand to wave back, but it didn't work and she gave up.
　She hadn't thought of releasing her hand.

"Prim, what kind of combination is that?
"Oh, these girls?

　These kids. They're pretty strong guys, though.

　They seemed to think so too, laughing and shouting at Prim.

"We're older.
We're older than you." "d*mn, you still have no manners.
If it wasn't for Prim, I'd have hit you.
You already did, didn't you?　I'll beat you all up later!

　The threatening Prim and the amused them.
　They seem to be on good terms, but...

"Oh, look... There it is. There was a lot of trouble when we first entered King's Landing. We've been on good terms since you helped me find Corona.
You're making it sound like we're letting you off the hook.
Watch your language, you got muscles in your noggin?
This is why the Lord of the Treasury is such a pain in the ass.
What the hell?

　Prim wielding a cross spear.
　Futa grabbed her spear from behind and stopped her from rampaging in a public place.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What?
It's not what? It's a fact. ....... ...... Hmm?

　Noticing a change in his surroundings, Fouta looked in the direction of the main group of soldiers.

　It's a good idea to take a look at your own personal life.

"Oh, .......
We stopped Prim's spear.
That was so easy.

"...... What?

　The corners of Futa's mouth twitch as he looks at Prim.

What do you usually do for these people, ......?
I'm just giving them a workout as a thank you for all their help.
I see.

　It seems that this is true, and the soldiers nodded at Futa's suspicious eyes.

No, but seriously. I can't believe you stopped the spear of a monster like Prim.
Yes, Prim is a monster, and we're no match for her.
Oh, my God, Prim is a monster.
Hey, you guys. Hey, you guys.

　Prim with a blue streak on her forehead.

Okay, well, we're gonna take a look around!　Stay calm, Prim!
Yeah, yeah, mimic people!
Just mimic your surroundings and you'll be fine!
Still talking!

　Hush!　In the event that you're not sure what to do, you'll be able to find out by yourself.


　If you think that confronting an unruly monster is barbaric, you may be right. ...... If you think it's bravery to stand up to an unruly monster, you may be right.

"But, Prim. Did those people help you find Corona?
Yes, they did. They asked around.

　Futa smiled a little and looked next to him.
　I saw Korona's profile looking at them with an indescribable expression on her face as they ran off.
　I don't think it's a good thing to remember that day.
　I don't think it's a good thing to remember that day.
　For the guards who go around saving people every day as a matter of course, it's just a page in their daily lives.

　But.

"Shall we go thank them together sometime?

　I'm sure you'll be glad to hear that.

"Oh, yes, Futa-kun.

　I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

I'm not sure what to do.
"They've gone down in rank from 'these kids'.
I'm going to beat the crap out of you. I'm going to beat the shit out of you. ...... That's it. There's something a little bit disturbing going on here, so be careful. There's a lot of assassins and marauders out there. There's been a lot of dead bodies in the back alleys.
See you at .......

　Prim stood up and lowered her voice, saying it was not something she wanted to talk about in front of Luli.
　And there was more to her story.

I've seen some dead bodies too, bludgeoned to death. At .......
"And what was that?
Maybe it was an iron bolt.
Are you saying you're ............ Mr. Wind?
Or at least the weapon.

　Prim and Wind know each other, of course.
　They have witnessed the battle between Huta and him at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters and fought together at the execution site in Corona.
　However, they do not have a relationship that can be called a connection.

　She doesn't know much about who he is.
　It's not surprising that she thinks he's dangerous.

　Huta was still reluctant to admit that the servant was Wind.
　But in addition to the circumstantial evidence...

"Whoa?

　He glanced down at his feet and saw Ruri tilting her head.

　Yeah. That's why Wind had left Ruri in Futa's hands in the first place.
　What if it has something to do with the incident that seems to be happening right now?

You might have some idea what's going on.
"Well, yeah. She's Mr. Wind's daughter, you know.
Yeah.

　Prim's eyes narrowed.
　She bends down and pats Ruri on the head.

You're in trouble, sweetheart.
What?

　Prim's cheeks relaxed as she stroked Ruri's light cherry-red hair.

　Prim didn't even know that Wind had a daughter, but she could tell that he loved her when he left her with Futa.

　In fact, he probably loved her. Her innocent eyes showed no sooty hatred or sorrow.
　--But that's why.

　I wonder what the danger of her father's situation will do to her.
　How would her expression cloud if she lost her father?
　It's not hard for Prim to imagine.

　Death in the family is hard.

"Well, for what it's worth. "I had a chance to talk to one of the assassins.
You did?
Yeah. And he said he's getting out of the business. He said the target has a very good bodyguard and he can't get to him.
"Secret service. Did Mr. Wind hire anyone?
I don't know. I don't know. I didn't even know if Mr. Wind was the target at the time.
That's true.

　I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.
　He smiled as he reassured her that it would be okay.

　And then he decided that he should talk to Wind once and for all.

　--Then, Futa noticed something.

And then Futa noticed.　Where's Corona?

　I'm not sure what to make of this.

　He looked around to see where she had gone this time, but she was nowhere to be found.



Cora, did you see those guys chasing us?
I didn't notice them at all!

　And then...

"Hey, sorry, maid!　It's really worth it to keep the city safe.
The city's peace is our peace.
"Yeah, yeah. This is no time to be dealing with monsters.

　At the last words of the last soldier, the soldiers burst into laughter.
　Surrounded by them, a merry maid stuffed their mouths with freshly baked bread from one end to the other.

It's so good. I wish my maids would make food this good.
It's so good, but why do you keep stuffing your mouth with it every time you finish?　I'm thirsty and I need some water. Thank you.
It's been a while since I've had this much lunch, hasn't it?　It's been a while since you've had this much lunch.

　The last one's words sent the soldiers into a frenzy.

"Futa-kun.
"Hey. What's up, Prim?
See you next time. Say hello to Corona for me.
...... Just out of curiosity, are you leaving?
No, I'm not. --I'm going to empty my stomach.

　I'm going to empty my stomach. I'm sure you'll agree.

　I'm not sure what to say, but I'm going to ask.

　--It was her way of saying thank you.

　I don't really know what kind of favor she gave me.
　I don't know what kind of favor she gave me, and I don't think I'm particularly grateful for it.

　Still, if I could give something back to someone who worked so hard for my survival.

　Such a small thought was conveyed to me.


　So.

...... If you can, please keep what's in your belly to yourself.
