56 Fifty-six stories to a hot spring trip (1)




 Thus, the next day.

"Wow, .......

 Charlotte looked out the window of the carriage and exclaimed in amazement.
 Outside, there was a field of grass. Fresh greenery danced in the early summer sun. The mountains were far away, and the wind was calm.

 The mountains were far away and the wind was calm.
 Allen smiled at the more positive response than he had expected.

"I'm glad you're happy, but is it really something to admire?
"Well, yes. I've never seen such a beautiful flatland before because the kingdom of the Neals has so many mountains.

 Charlotte said smilingly, then let out a heavy sigh.

When I escaped to this country, I hid in a wagon,......, but I didn't have time to enjoy the scenery at that time.
"Oh, I see. ......

 I guess I made a mistake in spreading the word.
 Allen was upset, but followed up.

"Well, it's a very rural area here. I've heard that your wanted list hasn't been circulated. You can relax and stretch your wings.
"Yes. It's a dream come true to be able to go out without a disguise.

 Charlotte smiled indifferently with her golden hair.
 Seeing this, Allen felt relieved and followed Charlotte's example to look outside.
 A pleasant breeze caressed his cheeks. The air was fresh, and it certainly felt good.

It's not a bad ...... view.
"Hmm. Isn't it?

 We both laughed a little and looked at the scenery in silence for a while.
 The wind and the sound of hoofs were the only sounds that colored the peaceful time.

 This is a place called the Unoha region. It is about a three hour carriage ride to the northeast from the house where Allen and his friends live.
 Today, we are going on a ...... three day, two night trip to the hot springs in this region.

 Allen secretly lifted the edge of his mouth.

But the people in town are also very cool. I never thought they'd offer me a trip.

 The other day, in order to protect Charlotte's outing, Allen took control of a place called the Maade District. It's a place where a lot of ragtag adventurers hang out at all hours of the day, and it's been a source of trouble for the people of the city.

 However, by Allen's hand, most of the people in the area were forcibly converted.
 They are now doing their best to become honest adventurers, and are actively participating in picking up trash in the area. It seems that it was the right decision to go to them regularly after that.

 As a result, Allen has contributed to the maintenance of public safety in the city. In honor of his contribution, the mutual aid association to which the merchants of the city belonged gave him a monetary gift.
 In other words, this trip was free of charge.
 Charlotte, who tended to be reserved, would not have any complaints if it was free.
 However, she raised her eyebrows in annoyance.

But ...... are you sure you want me to go with you? Wouldn't it have been better to invite Eruka?
No, he's got some business to attend to.

 Eruka said she would be out of town for a few days.
 The errand would probably be the investigation of the Kingdom of Neals that Allen had asked him to do.

 But even if it wasn't, Allen had definitely asked Charlotte out. Why should two old siblings go on a trip together? Bloody fights were sure to break out every hour.

I think I see it. That's where we'll be staying today.
"Oh, that's ......!

 Before I knew it, the view from the carriage window had changed a little.

 As the carriage was heading, the plains broke up and the blue ocean could be seen. And right next to it, on a cliff, there was a large building. It was a pale cream-colored structure with palm trees surrounding it.

 It is the most popular resort hotel in the Junoha region.
