Chapter 4 Original Text
I’m not cooking.
Tomorrow Lint Bloom Kishidan will report back to Falmir.
I don’t know why but the King told all of the Kishidans to come back.
By the way, right now, the place I’m currently in is jail.
Even I don’t really understand why I’m here.
The Lint Bloom Order who returned to the Kingdom was given two days of rest. We could do whatever we liked.
As expected, I was told by the leader to get ingredients, so I went to the store.
「Buhi*… you’re a good woman, why don’t you be mine? I’ll treat you real nice… Buhi buhi」\n
*TL: Usually the sound of a pig (oink).
What the heck, an orc wearing flashy clothing (for a moment, I thought he was just a really ugly guy) was trying to talk up the shop girl.
And, of course, the girl went,
「N- No, thank you!」
Well, that’s expected, I wouldn’t want that either with that pig.
「Buhi!? Y- You’re not going to listen to my demands! Come!」
He pulled at the girl’s hand to leave.
Is no one going to stop him? … It can’t be helped.
「Um… She seems to dislike this. Please stop it.」\n
「What the hell. Someone like you who stinks of commoner has guts to challenge me. Hey, you guys, kill them.」
He gave the order to the mercenaries guarding him.
「Well, Young Master. Wouldn’t killing these guys leave a bad impression on people? And you’ll trouble your father, it will be a bit…」
「Buhi… it’s true that my image going down would be bad.」
No, no, you don’t need to worry, your image is already the worst.
「Well, for now, just take this man to my home! I don’t care about the girl anymore.」
「Eh, wait-!」
I was caught by my arms and taken away by the mercenaries.
Crash! … Clunk.
They locked me up in the dungeon of a large mansion.
「Somehow, I ended up here, but aren’t I in a really desperate situation?」
On the following day, the Lint Bloom Order gathered together.
Leader noticed that Kio did not return.
「Hey, where’s Kio?」
「I don’t know.」
「Did anyone see him?」
「I heard that he got into an argument with a noble at the market yesterday.」
「What-!?」
At that time, Kio was
Clatter, Rattle.
「Squeak, squeak!」
「Hm? They caught a rat in a trap… There you go.」
The rat I released from the trap, for some reason, did not run away and climbed onto my shoulder.
「Hm-? You’re not gonna run away, Nezumi*-kun?」\n
*TL: Nezumi means mouse or rat
「Squeak, squeak!」
「Since I saved you, do you feel obligated towards me? Well, whatever, nice to meet you Nezumi-kun.」
「Squeak!」
As usual, I could not understand the rat’s words, but it seemed like he was saying, 「Nice to meet you!」, so I kept him.
「I wonder when we’ll be able to go outside. Everyone’s probably worried.」
Clonk clonk clonk
It seems like someone’s coming.
「Nezumi-kun, hide here.」
I hid Nezumi-kun in my breast pocket and pretended to sleep.
「Hey! Wake up! We’re letting you out.」
It seems like I can leave.
「I can finally leave this jail.」
「Ah, well, the place you’re going to is the execution grounds. Haha.」
「Ehh!! W- Wait please! I didn’t do anything!」
「I don’t understand why you would even tell me that. Anyways, you’re being charged with character defamation of a noble.」
「N- No way-」
W- What should I do? Anyhow, I have to escape.
The thing wrapped around my hands is most likely rope. I was taken outside and arrived before the steps to the gallows.
「Buhi, buhi, it’s because you went against me, that’s why you’ve ended up like this. Die for your crimes. Buhi.」
Below the gallows was that orc wearing the showy clothing, sitting in a self-important manner.
There’s one person on the gallows, another holding the rope that’s tying my hands, and a little further down, there is that flashy orc and his guards, and there is probably one person at the exit.
Shit, if only my hands were untied, I could run to the exit!
By accident, I glanced at my breast pocket and saw Nezumi-kun skillfully using his forefeet, and indeed he went to my thumb and made a「Leave it to me!」pose.
Nezumi-kun went from my breast pocket to my hands without anyone noticing and started fervently biting at the rope.
Nice! Go Nezumi-kun!
I thought about distracting the guy next to me by talking to him so I wouldn’t be exposed.
「Is- Isn’t the weather good today?」
「Hah? What are you saying? Today’s cloudy.」
I failed.
「Eh-, U- Um, that scar on your face is cool!」
「What the hell’s wrong with you! This scar is cool, you say!? This is from when I had left my village to become a knight. On the way, I was attacked by thieves, they took me all the way to their hideout. I completely thought I would die in that place, but the head was a gay guy and he attacked me! And then…」
… It seems that I’ve stepped on a land mine.
Well, anyhow, I’ve earned some time, so Nezumi-kun can get me loose.
The man next to me was still talking by himself and did not notice.
Right now is my chance!
I dashed all the way to the door leading to the outside.
「Hey! W- Wait!」
I didn’t look back at the people chasing me, I just ran.
「I won’t let you through!」
There was one man blocking the door.
「I’m sorry!」
Baam! I beat him with a shoulder tackle and got to the door. There were people chasing behind me.
Please! Lead to the outside!
Gacha*, Creak.\n
