I am really impressed with how strong you've become, Erio. I didn't expect you to defeat the goblins almost single-handedly while coming from the village to the capital."

Hahaha, thank you for the compliment, Mr. Jorg. But actually, I didn't do it alone.

　At the request of Yorum, who was coming to his hometown to peddle his wares, Elio was heading for the capital of the racial kingdom, escorting a group of young men with some of the village's best memories.

　On the way, they were attacked by goblins, but the men of the village covered them - or more precisely, they were too excited to fight outside the village for the first time, and they were confused with the goblins one on one.

　The truth is that during this time, Erio came up behind them and took out the goblins.

　Of course, the young men in the village understood that Elio was talking about humility and not hurting themselves.

　The young people sitting in the back of the carriage, looking around, speak up.

They were the ones who were dragging their feet, and it was Erio who was practically killing the goblins!

Seriously, Captain Erio, you are awesome!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I want to be just like you someday!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people have energy in their voices, but they are unreliable.

　Elio could only return a subtle smile to their voices.

　Peddler Jörg speaks up to change the atmosphere.

Anyway, I'll put some color on the escort fee since Erio and his friends saved the day this time. The capital city is about to be filled with festivities, so why don't you enjoy yourself with the money?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm looking forward to my first festival in the city!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have to buy something for my mom and dad with the money from the escort!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The city's festivals are fancy, and all sorts of cute girls come to the festivals, aren't they?　Maybe you'll meet your destiny or something!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people rhapsodized about the festival like children.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To be precise, it was not a festival but an "Inauguration Ceremony of the Queen of the Kingdom of the Races.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was an event to announce to the world that Lilith had been crowned queen, but to them, it could only be considered a kind of festival.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Lilith's side had no problem either, since it would be a success if the information spread widely.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　One of the young men broached the subject.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

One of the young men asked, "Is Captain Erio going to buy anything with the money for this escort?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't have anything in particular I want to buy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ew!　It's a waste of time for the city to be celebrating!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people made surprised and frustrated faces at Elio's response.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Elio did not change his opinion and continued the conversation.

My sister Miya is attending the Six Principality Academy of Magic, isn't she?　The tuition is covered by a scholarship, but I hear that living expenses are necessary. I want to send money to Miya so that she can concentrate on her studies as much as possible."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Erio's serious reply causes the buoyant young people to make subtle expressions.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His admirable idea made them feel embarrassed that they were splurging at the festival or trying to buy souvenirs for their families.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As expected, Elio notices the change in the atmosphere and hurriedly excuses himself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Oh, this is just a situation at my house!　Never mind. Rather, shopping in the capital, and at a festival, is an experience you don't get to have very often, and I think you should act on it to broaden your insight!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elio follows up as best he can, but not all of them can honestly make a fuss when their boss tells them, 'Today is a rude day, so don't mind yourself and ruffle some feathers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people only returned an affectionate smile, but the delicate atmosphere could not be dispelled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Oh shoot, ...... I must have said something unnecessary.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elio inwardly reflects on his own gaffe.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is not the type of person who can be told by his superiors to "cut loose" and do so without hesitation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be unreasonable to ask the young people who are accompanying him to do so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While I was looking for a topic of conversation to somehow change the mood, the peddler Jorm was the first to speak up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can see it. That is the capital of the racial kingdom. There are more people here than I expected. I guess they want the same thing as we do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As he said, we came within visual distance of the walled city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is a long line of people waiting at one of the entrances and exits.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even from a distance, there were merchants with a large number of wagons, peddlers carrying as much luggage as they could carry on their backs, and people with as much luggage as they could carry in their hands, as if they had come from a nearby village. The number of people who have been to the city is increasing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, there were also those who had come to enjoy the "Inauguration Ceremony of the Queen of the Kingdom of the Races"-a festival of the Kingdom of the Races.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although still from a distance, the enthusiasm of the festival could be felt as far as Jorg and the others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to this, the tension among the young people, which had been subtle until a moment ago, exploded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, oh!　Seriously, I've never seen such a big city!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Me too!　Me too!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wow!　There are so many people lined up!　The number of people standing in line alone must exceed the number of people in our village.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people start to make noise as if they were children in the single-digit age range.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Originally, it is not good to be distracted as an escort since they have not yet entered the city, but .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Monsters do not attack around the point where the city can be seen. In the first place, the monsters themselves are too close to the city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The most important thing to remember is that the air of subtlety has been dispelled, and Erio lets out an inward sigh of relief.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jörg also propagates the joyful atmosphere of the young people and speaks with a happy smile on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The inn has already been secured through a peddler. It looks shabby from the outside, but they try to keep the rooms as clean as possible. You and I will be sharing a room, but I will be relieved of my guard duty during the festival, so I hope you all have a good time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Yoelm, thank you!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The young people shouted their thanks with high tension.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Although they are not polite, it is understandable that they are thanking him sincerely, so Jörg does not lose his smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elio, too, is somewhat amused and changes his mind slightly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(I wasn't planning on spending any money, so I thought I'd stay at the inn for the duration of the festival. ...... I guess it's a good time to look around as one of the topics of conversation while I send money and letters to Mya)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is only a walk and I do not intend to use the escort fee to send money to Mya.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Still,' thought Erio, 'it will be fun just to wander around the city during the festival.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Everyone was looking forward to the "Inauguration Ceremony of the Queen of the Racial Kingdom" - the festival with all their hearts as they headed for the entrance and exit of the capital.
