Alice: 「I didn’t need any special preparation, so I came to the main gate, but you’re almost empty.」
Alice furrowed her shapely brow as we exited the north gate of the Erivan Kingdom.
Elt: 「Why are you here?」
Alice was dressed in comfortable clothes and had a beautiful magic sword at her hip. She was dressed exactly as I had instructed Alicia and Serena to wear.
Alice: 「That’s because I’m coming with you, of course.」
When I made eye contact with Alicia, she looked troubled and bowed her head apologetically.
It seems that she tried to stop her at least.
Elt: 「No, I’ve never heard of that
..?」
I scratched my own cheek and looked at Alice.
Did I invite her sometime?
I was wondering if there is such a thing as a memory lapse when you don’t have a drink, etc

.
Alice: 「Eh? Didn’t we talk about our plans for today when we were having dinner last night?」
Don’t tell me you thought that was the reason you were being invited?
No, I don’t think so. If that’s the case, she’s too well prepared. I’m sure she has already made up her mind when we talked about our plans the other day.
Elt: 「That was directed at Serena and Alicia, and you’re a princess, after all.　Don’t you have any official duties?」
She was a princess of a country, after all. It’s not that I don’t like it.
Because nobles can’t help but gather at a tea party and it’s neat apparance. I ask her that question
..
Alice: 「Unfortunately, I prefer to hold and shakes rather than having tea. If I hold out until Mr. Elt’s unveiling party, you’ll die of stress.」
Isn’t a princess usually more ladylike?
However, I know that Alice’s abilities are solid just because she says so.
In fact, I haven’t been hit by a sword that sharp since Phil.
Serena: 「Hey Elt, your ability is a secret, right? Wouldn’t your power be revealed?」
When I was thinking about this, Serena whispered in my ear.
It’s true that our luggage is too small for a trip to the Lost Forest. That means we don’t have enough food, let alone to prepare for an encampment.
Serena and Alicia knew about my inventory, so they wouldn’t have a problem with it, but Alice would probably find it strange.
Elt:「Don’t worry about that. I’ll use this.」
I pass magic power through the ring I’m wearing, and a carriage appears.
Alicia:「Eh, isn’t this an ethereal carriage!?」
I was satisfied with Alicia’s surprised reaction.
The Ethereal Carriage is stored as a ringb while it is not materialized.
It can be materialize from it’s standby state by absorbing the user’s magical power.
However, it seems to use a lot of magic power, and replenishing magic power is usually a bottleneck, but I have a lot of magic power, so there was no problem.
Elt: 「Come on, we don’t have much time, just get in.」
With that thought, I urged Serena and Alicia.
Serena: 「Alright. Can I try to ride the horses then?」
Serena was curious about the magical creature’s horse and went to the guard stand.
Alicia: 「If you get tired, I’ll always be here」
Alicia walked into the back of the truck.
There is no awkwardness between them, and they seem to approve of each other.
It seems that the shopping trip they had together yesterday turned out to be a good thing.
Alice: 「Um
..」
Alice was fidgeting for some reason. She looks like a child who is about to be left behind.
Alice: 「E, Elt
. Um, can I

」
Elt: 「Come on, Alice, get in.」
When I urged her to do so
..
Alice: 「A, are you sure? Can I come with you?」
Her eyes widened.
Elt: 「However, if you come with me, I’m not going to treat you as a princess. You’ll have to help us with camping and fight the monsters.」
I don’t want her to feel like a guest and be selfish.
When Alice heard my nail-biting words, she gave me a happy look and said

.
Alice: 「Un. Thanks.」
And then she went into the back of the truck.
Pretty colorful chapter if I say so myself
