Chapter 96 \n\n

Elf Village

The sun began to rise, and it began to brighten slightly. I piggyback Rion, whose excitement didn’t cool down, and dived into the village gate.

“Rion got the big one, but I was the best in terms of the number of enemy soldiers captured.”

“Then I have the highest number of monsters defeated!”

Where did she take those out? Melfina went ‘mogu-mogu’ chewing skewers and dumplings. Sara was with a chin-raising ‘doya’ face as usual. Melfina’s dumplings would have been kept in Clotho’s storage. Clotho, don’t spoil her too much. Melfina will get fat.

And for some reason, they both stare at me and don’t make a tremor. Oh, do you want me to praise you?

“Yeah, you both did well.”

“Well! Then…”

“But now is my time ~”

As she rides on my back, Rion presses her chick on my hair. Sara and Melfina couldn’t help but take a step back. It’s usually pretty sticky, but today it’s unusually clean.

“Kel-nii’s hair is smooth.”

“Is that so? Rion’s is more comfortable to touch, isn’t it?”

Rion and I played with each other’s hair. For the time being, I’m careful about my taste. I’m careful about my body. After living in the mansion, I’m happy to take a bath every day. Of course, the same is true for our women. Viva, bath culture!

“My Liege, it’s okay to flirt, but it’s time to be welcomed by the elves.”

“What are you talking about? This is a brother-sister communication.”

“That’s right, Gera-ji. It’s not embarrassing to be seen.”

“Mmm, is that so? Huh?”

Gerard has a subtle face (I feel), but this much is a daily occurrence.\n

(You are being gradually poisoned by Rion …)

While doing so, we reach the square. The elves seemed confused by the turmoil when Efil fell, but they noticed when we came this far. I met the Elder who just turned around.

“Ke, Kelvin-dono!”

“Elder, I’m back now —“

“Kelvin donoooo!”

The Elder headed towards us with a fierce dash.

Isn’t his character different from when we first met? After all, it’s hot and temperamental even though it’s an elf.

“Sorry! Efil san has collapsed!”

“Keep calm. Efil is okay.”

Elder Nereus, who is moving to the dogeza position, and the village’s elves warmly welcomed us. No one seems to have been injured. It is good.

I managed to convince him that Efil was slightly tired. However, there was a rain of gratitude that was subsequently released by the elves. There were many elves in the village, so it’s quite loud. Just as I was feeling caged because of that, imagine how confused would have felt Efil who received this alone.

“What should I give you to really thank you …”

“Elder, can you wait for a while before that? First, I want to check the state of the cage.”

“It’s the Trisen soldiers you captured. No way, Trisen was moving behind the monster attack … here. Please.”

There was a special cage created by my green magic in the square. As far as I confirmed through the subordinate network, the people caught in this battle were: one adjutant belonging to the “Hybrid Demon Beast Corps”, two battalion commanders, five captains, and many other general soldiers. There was: one lieutenant belonging to the “Magic Knights” and three battalion commanders.

It was easy to know because all officers had an insignia indicating the rank on the uniforms’ neck.

Checking the captives, Clive seemed to have brought the best of his knights as an escort. It was said he was the favorite but in effect, this would have cost most of his Knights’ strength.

“Hi, hi!?”\nAs we approach the cage, the captured Trisen soldiers move to the back of the cage and scream pitifully. It feels like they’re scared of Sara.

“What? That’s rude!”

Sara is angry, but well, anyone who watched the battle from beginning to end knows how it feels. Unidentified enemies approached while the B-class monsters were swept away like scraps of paper. It looks even scarier because the enemy looked like a beautiful girl. In the second half, there was no commander in charge, and many soldiers turned their backs and fled. Many people might have been traumatized.

“Ah! Help, I’m scared.”

” She is coming here! Please help me!”

Rion jumps off from my shoulder and lands in front of the cage in front of me. She approaches with a smile while waving her hands, but the result is the same as Sara’s.

“Moo, as a girl, this reaction hurts.”

“Don’t trouble yourself anymore. They’re not the ones that I have business with.”

I look at the four women sitting in the cage with their knees in their arms. The female Magic Knights were under Clive’s control. All four have hollow eyes and show no reaction unlike the soldiers of the Hybrid Demon Beast Corps.

“Clotho, bring the female knights over there.”

Clotho goes ‘poyon´ out of my robe and goes down to the ground. Clotho enlarges a part of his body, goes through the gap in the cage, and moves it like a tentacle… he lifts the female knights to this side of the cage. It carries them in a row. The people of the mixed demon beast corps around me are annoyingly noisy, but I put up with it.

“Did you really say that the man who called himself Clive who charmed them was a reincarnated?”

Melfina skipped the story.

“Hmm? Oh, I said that.”

“Is that so?”

“Did you have any concerns?”

“No, let’s talk later. Please concentrate on this now. “

“Really?”\n\nRion is surprised. I don’t show it on my face, but I am quite surprised inside. Even if I check her with an appraisal eye, the status is a general woman, and she is also an elf.

“Was he a woman?”

“No, this is a false appearance with magic items transmitted to our country. So, to say, it’s like showing a vision. I’m sorry, but this one is a man. I was waiting for something to happen, but I’m relieved that things have been completed safely.””

Leonhard laughs.

Is it a magic item that falsifies not only its appearance but also its status? Considering the performance, it seems to be worth the S class.

“All right, king of the country. It’s an item that is a national treasure, even if you tell me that …”

“I don’t care. I’m going to understand your people through the way you fight in this defense. And Kelvin is now the hero of the village. Nereus, don’t you feel the same?”

“… Huh!”

Leonhard sits down on the sofa and faces me.

“Kelvin. you passed this test. You revealed the enemy’s mastermind without damaging the village. Well, it is a deduction that you destroyed the forest a little.”

“I’m sorry…”

“Well, that’s more than enough. If Gown had sent an elite, it would be more damage. Thank you for your work.”

He bows his head deeply. Even if he is in a woman’s appearance now, this is bad in his territory. I hurriedly stop him.

“Don’t worry. Nobody thinks I’m Leonhard in this figure. Only Nereus knows. This figure is a reflection of Nereus’ daughter, and I replaced her on the way. It was really funny when Nereus got down on his knees by mistake! “

“This, king, that’s…”

Nereus is about to cry.

“Well, yeah? This one still wants to talk, but it’s okay. This one will arrange for the people you caught this time, and as part of this reward…”

Leonhard took out something like a stamp from his chest.

“Let us give this one’s direct permission stamp of Gown’s transfer gate. Come on, let us get the guild’s certificate.?”
