Chapter 372 – Meigar, the Warmest Wizard (1)
Artie took flight towards the north before full night arrived. The coachman who led the wagon with me to an uninhabited place closed his eyes and asked for crab foam as Artie uttered a simple incantation with his finger his. He said that if he had a good night’s rest, he would forget everything about the day, so I just had to leave the coachman back in the square.
Morning at an inn in the capital. I tinkered with the wagon charged with Artie’s power and decided to stay in the capital for one more day. It was because I wanted to see it with my own two eyes, since all sorts of unusual events were taking place in the capital these days. In particular, I thought I would definitely watch the human rights demonstrations taking place in the capital.
With that thought in mind, I was walking down a quiet street in an aristocratic home. Since most of the people commuting from aristocratic families moved by carriage, the main street in the early morning was very quiet. There were two main types of people walking along the avenue of the aristocratic family in the morning. A retired noblewoman who is living a leisurely noble life and a hobby.
Looking up across the aristocratic street, I saw aristocrats enjoying a leisurely break in the park. Elderly nobles were enjoying cricket, accompanied by rugged bodyguards and plainclothes knights in full clothes. On the other side were women taking their dogs for a walk. Most of them were hired women from aristocratic families, and those puppies were not their owners either.
Some of them read books while lying under parasols erected to prepare for the scorching sun. There was a sense of relaxation in this park, as if the painting of Georges Seurat had been moved as it is. As I was about to set foot in the park, the soldier blocking the park gate said,
“Stop. Only the nobles of Elm Street can use this place.”
“Oh, is that so?”
My plan to enjoy my leisure time by lying on the grass until the start of the protest collapsed. Even though I frowned, I understood his words and decided to step back. The soldier stared straight ahead again with an expressionless face. I decided to respect his work ethic and moved on to find another place to kill time. At the corner outside the park, three puppies walked out. These puppies, which are very small and cute even to me who don’t know the name of the dog, were running amok to satisfy my curiosity.
The woman walking the dogs was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and she had impressive long blonde hair and blue eyes. She was lightly dressed, but she was in plain clothes, and she was enhancing her beauty her. I moved to a corner to let the puppies pass. A woman greeted me with a brim hat.
“Good day… Uh?”
“Karin?”
The woman I faced was Felix Karin. When Karin met her face her with mine, she seemed startedled and backed away from her, covering her face her with the brim hat. I said.
“Karin. You didn’t spend the night there. Is it shift work?”
“Today I wrote an annual leave.”
I was surprised that she used her annual leave her. The woman I knew, Felix Karin, was a human figure who pursued catching even one more criminal during her annual leave her.
“Is that so? Of course, rest is also important. Do you think these kids are the ones you told me about last time?”
Of course, there was no need to say such a thing. I turned the topic from year round to puppies. The qualities of an SNS star were visible in the clean hair and the long eyes. Even when a stranger was standing in front of his eyes his, he did not bark, and when the owner did not move, he sat there and waited patiently. Karin said, pointing to her own puppies.
“This kid is smart, this kid is mischievous, and this kid is soft.”
It was a much more common name than I thought. I thought they were Cerberus, Helberos, and Tartarus, of course.
“That is a cute name. Karin. You have a better sense of naming than I thought.”
“Yes? Oh, thank you.”
Karin looked really confused when I praised her naming sense of her. Looking at her face her, I decided to change my plans a bit for today. I was thinking of spending some time around here and then going to see the protest site, but if Karin was by my side, the protest site was fine.
“Are you going for a walk?”
“Yes. I’m thinking of taking a big lap around the park…”
Karin slurred her words. She looked at me through the slit of her brim hat and rolled her eyes. I thought I knew what she wanted to say.
“Karin. If you’ll excuse me, may I follow the walk? It’s just that today’s schedule is empty, so I’m free.”
“That… Isn’t her wife here?”
“My wife has an urgent study today, so she went back first. So now I am alone.”
I said with a smile. Karin shook her head at those words and said.
“Yeah, that’s adultery.”
“… A walk?”
Karin seemed to have a stricter judgment on infidelity than she thought. She cleared her throat in bewilderment at my question, then lightly gripped the puppies by the leash and said,
“Oh, I see. It’s a walk. Yes. It is absurd to say that it was an affair when it was just a walk.”
The puppies were wagging their tails. I said petting the dogs head.
“Yes. It’s just a walk.”
“Yes. Yes.”
Karin agreed with me. I turned around and headed for the park. As Karin approached, the soldier did not hold back any more. The soldier apologized to me with a worried face.
“Sorry. I didn’t know you were an acquaintance of the Felix family. From now on, if you let us know…”
“No. It’s because you work hard. What. Don’t bother too much. I should have told you in advance, but you made it a hassle for both of us.”
The soldier seemed a little moved by my courteous demeanor. I cheered him up and started slowly walking around the park with Karin. The puppies on the shore of the lake were stamping their feet, eager to run free. Karin loosened her leash a little and she said to me.
“Ho, the lake is pretty.”
It was as if they were trying to break an awkward relationship. I looked around the lake once at her words her. The sun shone, and the sun shone like jewels over the lake. The inside of the lake was clear and transparent, revealing the movements of colorful fish.
As if looking at a mirror ball, fish scattered their scales against the sunlight from all sides. I nodded and said.
“Yes. It is pretty.”
Karin was walking stiffly. She was obviously more nervous than on the Eastern Front the other day. I said.
“Karin. When the dog walk is over, what do you do next?”
“Oh, are you talking about today? Oh, I’m free today.”
Karin had a tendency to jump out at times. I smiled at her answer her and then said.
“Okay. Shall we have lunch together after the walk? I was going to eat roughly around here, but I didn’t know where the good restaurants were around. It would be great to have someone like Karin escort me by my side.”
“Actually, I don’t know much about restaurants either… If you don’t mind where the knights often go, I’ll take you there.”
“I’m looking forward to it.”
“It is difficult to expect too much. The tribe of knights, including myself, are not the type of person who cares about the taste of food… You may be rather disappointed.”
Karin seemed worried that I would be really disappointed. I said.
“So, what do you usually do on your days off? You wouldn’t just go for a walk all day.”
“Usually, after a walk, I would do weapon and armor maintenance, and I would do simple training to keep my body from getting stiff. Then I go to the library and read.”
It could be said to be the pinnacle of sincerity. It could be said to be stoic beyond sincerity. I asked looking at the puppies.
“Awesome. You can say that he is a model for knights.”
“It’s not that great. As a knight who protects the country’s security, this is a virtue that must be acquired.”
“It is not good to be too humble. Karin. You are a knight recognized by the royal family.”
“Thanks for the advice.”
After walking for quite a long time, my stomach was hungry. I said.
“Karin. Shall we go eat now? I’m really looking forward to that knight’s restaurant.”
It was a driver’s cafeteria because it was a restaurant where knights ate with each other. Karin nodded her head at my words and went ahead of her. The puppies moved briskly, wagging their tails, as if they knew that their owner was going to eat. Karin said as she exited the park.
“Personally, I am a little disappointed. There was a very large execution ceremony that I wanted to show the priest this time…”
“That’s too bad.”
It was a very comforting news to hear. She had no idea what a terrible execution it would be if Karin said she wanted to show it to me. She said Karin.
“It was an execution ceremony attempted for the purpose of the door bombing plan, and it was really splendid. I really want to show that to the priest someday.”
“Did you only want to show it to me? It’s an honor. To receive such a favor from a royal knight.”
“Yes?”
Karin was momentarily taken aback by my words, then she averted her gaze. And with her mouth shut, she didn’t know what to do and took her strange steps. I caught her trying to get out of her boulevard her. Her arm was caught by her, and she stiffened in surprise.
The bare skin exposed in the sleeveless dress of her was as hard and elastic as her temper of her. The outline of her muscles was clearly visible in her hand. Do you have abs too? She said, turning her head.
“I’d appreciate it if you let go of him, her cow her, her hand her.”
“Oh, excuse me.”
“Oh, no. It’s because I acted rudely…”
Karin stopped talking and shut her mouth. Out of respect for her wishes her, I decided not to talk further. We set foot in the restaurant. Karin whispered to her clerk at the store, blushing.
“Please guide me to a table for two people.”
“Are you a couple?”
“Oh, no.”
Karin hurriedly shook her head. Her clerk told her.
“Yes. Okay. Then, I will guide you to a table for two.”
“This seems to be a strange misunderstanding. A couple Isn’t that cheating then? Adultery is a crime. As a knight, you can’t do that.”
Seeing Karin saying that, she suddenly had the idea that she wanted to commit an affair with Karin.
