Chapter 175.1

Chapter 175.1 \n<h1>Chapter 175 Departure</h1>\n\n　Escort Requests. They are requests that are normally only requested to trusted Hunters or high-level Hunters.

　The world outside is dangerous. There are Monsters, there are also bandits, and sometimes Treasure Shrines may pop up. 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 wasn’t a party with a good reputation, but the average level of the Members was high, and because Luke was once addicted to testing out bandits and was feared by them, there were several times when such requests came in, so I had some experience as I was accompanying them.

　However, when the target of the escort was the Emperor, it seemed to be of a different scale.

　The place where I was led with the Hunter team was a large carriage with the Zebrudia crest on it.　It seemed that the Emperor hadn’t arrived yet. The leader of the Imperial Guard knights, who was in charge of this escort――Franz-san, says in a solemn tone.

“It is made of Mithril and Adamantite.  Bullets, swords, and magics won’t go through.” (Franz)

　Those were high-grade materials used for weapons and armor. Mithril was resistant to magic, while Adamantine was impervious to physical impact.　Adamantite in particular, while powerful, was very heavy and can only be used by close-quarters combat Hunters. I didn’t expect anyone to make a carriage out of it.　It would have been too heavy for a simple horse to pull it, but the horses tied to the front of the carriage were of the same race as the platinum horses Eva had prepared for us on our previous vacation. Moreover, there were four of them.　With the mighty and ferocious Platinum Horse at the helm, no Monsters would dare to attack.

“But if there was an eruption right below where they were walking, the Emperor would die, right?” (Cry)

“……” (Franz)\n

“If lightning strikes, he would die, right?” (Cry)

“Don’t say something so ominous! His Majesty Radrick is equipped with that “Safe Ring (Barrier Ring)” just in case.” (Franz)

　As expected of the Emperor of a great country, his escort seems to be well-prepared. I nodded in agreement and looked at the Platinum Horses, who were trained and relatively quiet.

“That is a relief. By the way, how many of them is he equipped with?” (Cry)

“…………” (Franz)

“But, if he runs out of air, he will die, right?” (Cry)

“…… Kuh……” (Franz)

“If he was submerged underwater, he would die, right?” (Cry)

“Shut up, don’t lump our travel with the Treasure Shrines you are going to! The safety of this escort route has already been guaranteed to some extent!” (Franz)

　No, I am not going to such dangerous Treasure Shrines though.　The carpet *pechipechi* hit my body. When I looked over it, it looked over me and shrugged its shoulders in disdain. It seemed that my carpet was also dismayed. If you move so much, you will run out of your magic power, you know……\n　Franz-san’s face turned red and he pointed at me as if to denounce me.

“In the first place, what the hell is this appearance! We are not going out to play!” (Franz)

 

“Well, this is my fighting style……” (Cry)

“Don’t lie! Like there is a fighting style like this!” (Franz)

　The 『Perfect Vacation (Comfortable Vacation)』 was a shirt-shaped Relic, just as its name implied, it creates the perfect vacation.

　There are many armor-type Relics out there, but I have never seen one as useful as this one.

　Its ability allow the wearer to adapt to any kind of environment.　Although it provides no protection, the wearer of this shirt will be comfortable in all situations, whether in the sky, the sea, the mountains, or the seabed.　Except for its flashy pattern and the fact that it loses its effect if you wear something over it, it was truly comfortable. And when combined with the Barrier Ring, it was literally perfect.　I am very curious to know how harsh the times were when the origin of this shirt existed.

\n　I mean, I can’t ride a horse by myself.

　The carpet was *furafura* wobbling around as if to say “Don’t worry I’ll take care of you”. What a reliable carpet.

“I don’t need the horse you prepared for me. I have my carpet.” (Cry)

“…… Do whatever you want. Just don’t cause any trouble for us.” (Franks)

　Franks said in a throwaway tone and broke off the conversation.
