Chapter 63 â Patrol and Harvest Festival â Part 1
We leave the headquarters and start patrolling around the capital.
Although I say patrol around the capital, itâs mainly keeping eyes on the surroundings of the main street.
Capital is fundamentally peaceful.
Although I heard that the public order got worse and there was the accident with the Magic Gem Soldier, itâs not like such accidents happen frequently.
The city has returned back to normal.
Itâs lively and peaceful city as usual.
ăHello, Ramida obaasan. How is your cold?ă
Claire sometimes greets people when passing them.
Like a good-natured policewoman rather than a knight.
ăAra, Claire-chan. I got much better thanks to the medicine you sent meă
ăIâm glad. Please take care of yourselfă
Claire smiles.
A smile that feels like a gentle granddaughter who is worried about her grandmother.
ăThank you very much for your hard work. Ah, that lovely girl is also a knight, isnât she?ă
ăNice to meet you. Iâm Racine desuă
Racine greets and bows towards the obaasan.
ăOya oya, thank you for your politeness. So, that man is an attendant then?ă
No, Iâm a coworker though!?
Rather, am I not wearing the same knight outfit?
ăâŠâŠ Abel desuă
ăBabel huh, best regardsă
ăNo, itâs Abel thoughâŠâŠă
ăAh, was it Abir-kun, Iâm sorryă
ăTherefore, Iâm telling you itâs Abelă
ăAeâŠâŠ face-kun?ă
You are definitely doing it on purpose arenât you, obaasan!?
ăMaa, well. Work hard not to pull Claire-chan downă
ăWa, haaă
ăAlso, no matter how beautiful Claire-chan is, you must not do something wrong, okay? I wonât let you touch my pretty Claire-chan for as long as Iâm aliveă
ăWa, haaâŠâŠă
I canât say anything, but haa.
ăObaasan, he is also my coworkeră
Claire helps me out with a smile.
ăHee, so this child is also a knight?ă
Ramida obaasanâs eyebrows twitch.
ăAlthough Claire-chan is such excellent knight, he doesnât look like much. A swordsman aura? character? I canât feel anything like that from himă
Thatâs because Iâm a magician.
Although my social position is that of a knight, Iâm not someone who would kamikaze with a sword in hand.
ăAbel is extremely reliable magician. He is also someone who saved my lifeă
ăThatâs right~ He defeated the monsters in Rashuka City on his own, and also defeated the Empireâs mysterious person who appeared in the Capital a while agoă
Racine follows up Claireâs words.
Thanks both of you.
As expected of my companions.
ăâŠâŠ Fumu, if you two say soă
Obaasan mutters and turns towards me,
ăI knew you were a splendid knight-sama at first glance. Itâs reassuring to have someone like you around Claire-chană
A sudden 180 degree change in evaluation!?
Maa, Iâm being praised so, all goodâŠâŠ
Â
We advance further.
We enter the shopping area through the main street.
ăClaire-chan, thank you as always. Have an appleă
ăThank you very much, Mare obaasană
Claire receives an apple from the greengrocer obaasan.
ăClaire Oneechan, you are beautiful as always~ă
A small girl playing with her mother on the roadside waves at Claire.
ăFufu, thank you, Rina-chană
ăClaire-san is on patrol today? Thank you for your hard workă
The female merchant smiles at Claire.
ăI will do my bestă
ăâŠâŠ Somehow, you are really popular. Claireă
I half mutter in amazement.
ăChivalrous and beautiful. Even I who is a woman is attracted~ă
Racine stares at Claire absentmindedly.
But, I feel like the people here like her not only because of her outer appearance, but also because of her inner beauty.
Just like they would towards a family memberââ
ăS, stop it, both of youă
Claire says in embarrassment.
ăItâs because I lodged around here when I was in the Knight School. Everyone is my acquiantanceă
ăThatâs how I know a lot of peopleă
ăThere are many old-fashion, good-natured people around here. I love the people of this city almost the same as everyone back in the villageă
Claire nods with a smile.
ăThereforeââwhen the Empire attacks, I will absolutely protect them. With my own handsă
Her expression becomes full of determination.
ăItâs for that purpose I keep training with my sword every day. I will become strongerââand drive away every single Empireâs magician. If the plan to injure the people here, I will fight them. I will protect this cityââă
How admirable, Claire.
Although I entered the Knight Order only because I wanted to become successful in life.
And her goal is now coming true thanks to the Knight Order.
Wonderful, I think frankly.
Claire walks straight down the road determinedly in order to achieve her goal.\n
