My Pet Is a Holy Maiden-Chapter 92

Chapter 92

Departure

The Survival Temple in the city of Levantis .

What walked into the room was a male inspector who could be said to be the protagonist of this trip .

He appears to be in his late thirties, having dark brown hair and eyes of the same color . He has a thin build and gives off a sloppy impression .

“I believe this is the first time we’ve met, ‘Tensho’ and ‘Saint’ . My name is Yerimao Toural, and I have been ordered by His Majesty to inspect this time . I am from the Marquis family, but I am still just an heir . Please feel free to call me Yerimao as I have not succeeded . ”

Tatsumi and Chalcedonia gave their names to Yerimao, who thanked them in return .

I heard that this person, Yerimao, will be the next head of the Marquis Toural family . From what he said earlier, it seems that his father is still active .

Furthermore, he is a childhood friend of Argent, the current crown prince and Jolt’s father, and it seems that he has already decided to become his aide when Argent succeeds the throne .

“Yerimao’s uncle is very talented, and this time too, my grandfather called me directly . ”

Apparently, Yerimao is not just a childhood friend of the crown prince, but also an aide of the future king .

“No, I may have always been good with numbers and calculations, but I’m not good at moving my body . ”

In a world where there are no computers or calculators, fast and accurate calculations is a great talent in its own right .

After that, the four people who just met will discuss a course for the future again .

Since Yerimao and Jolt are not accustomed to traveling, I had decided to avoid camping as much as possible . So we opted for the post town route instead .

Although Tatsumi is not the most accustomed to traveling, he is still better than Jolt and Yerimao .

“Have you been camping before? I’ve never camped, so I’d like to try it . ”

“No, I haven’t . But I’d much rather have a good night’s rest on a proper bed than camp outside . There’s nothing wrong with staying in a cheap hotel after all . ”

They seem to have differing opinions, so Tatsumi and Calsedonia decides to go with Yerimao’s suggestion .

It is best to avoid danger during an escort after all .

Jolt seems a little dissatisfied, but he would never disagree with Tatsumi’s opinion .

“Now, Mr . Jolt . From here on, you are my student and will be treated as a civilian . Are you sure you want to proceed?”

“Yeah, that’s okay… No, I understand, Professor Yerimao . ”

“That’s why, please avoid treating Jolt like a member of the royal family, ‘Tensho’ and ‘Saint’ . ”

“Oh, why don’t you stop calling Tatsumi and others ‘Tensho’ and ‘Saint’? They’re friends who act together, albeit for a short period of time . ”

“Hmm, it is as Jolt says . I’ll call you ‘Tatsumi-kun’ and ‘Calcedonia-san’ in the future, is that okay?”

Of course, Tatsumi and his colleagues had no complaints about it and decided to call each other by name during this trip .

Each riding on a Parlow, they left the garden of the Temple of Survival, slowly advancing to the city .

Editor: Auqilae

Jolt and Yerimao looked like any other civilian, despite being aristocrats . Perhaps the general aristocratic education included the riding of Parlow .

While thinking about that, Tatsumi glances over at Calcedonia .

It seems that the melancholy from the other day was completely gone, and she had become a bird with a clear expression .

Calcedonia really stands out today, despite wearing a travel cloak over an undecorated gray robe, which is a magic seal .

Her arms are protected by dull black gauntlets, much like those found on tosei gusoku armor . These are, of course, made from the material collected from the flying dragon that Tatsumi had previously defeated .

And speaking of Tatsumi, he also got a new set of equipment .

Previously, he used boiled leather armor . Now, his entire body is covered in armor made from the same material as Calcedonia’s gauntlets .

The armor that fully protects his chest and back were jet-black, with more pieces protecting his thighs, knees, shoulders and elbows . He donned a helmet much like that of a motorcycle’s, made completely of materials from the dragon . The transparent front was made by polishing a part of the flying dragon’s compound eye, giving him full-body protection .

What’s more, he even has a jet-black sword made from materials from the flying dragon strapped around his waist .

Among all the jet-black armor, “Amaryllis” on his right side stood out .

According to Tatsumi, one should not get caught wearing only black .

However, since the material of the flying dragon is basically all black, this could not br avoided .

It is a relief that the travel cloak is worn over the armor . It makes it much less noticeable .

Eventually, the party passes through the gate of Levantis and goes out to the highway . If you continue north on the highway, you will arrive at the first post town in the evening .

Tatsumi proceeded with his beloved horse Porsche, taking in the surrounding scenery leisurely whilst getting healed by the soft touch of Porsche’s feathers .

The party arrives at the first post town just as the sun begins to set .

There is still plenty of time to spare, but if you do not stop at this post town here, you will have to camp .

The estimated time of arrival to the post towns are written on the itinerary for those who travel on foot, so Tatsumi and his friends who came riding on Parlow arrived earlier .

“As planned, let’s do this today . ”

Tatsumi, who was at the head of the line, looked back and said . Everyone nodded .

“Calce . Have you ever been to this post town?”

“Yes, several times before . ”

Tatsumi had also traveled to areas around the royal capital several times before as a demon beast hunter, but since this is the first time travelling to the north for him, he asked Calce, who has the most travel experience in the group…

“Then, can you suggest an affordable inn please?”

Calcedonia nodded with a smile . She seems glad that Tatsumi wanted her help .

Calcedonia takes the lead and guides everyone to an inn without breaking her smile .

For a while, we went through the post town while riding on Parlow . Calcedonia stopped in front of an inn .

“Are you here?”

“Yes . I’ve used this inn many times before, so I know the inn . ”

Calsedonia asked the inn clerk who came out to the store to put a party of Parlow in the stable, and went into the inn to guide Tatsumi and his friends .

“Oh, you’re Calsedonia! It’s been a long time!”

When Tatsumi and his friends entered the inn, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the shopkeeper who noticed them raised his face, noticed Calsedonia at the front, and broke his face .

“It’s been a long time, my husband”

The shopkeeper, who exchanged words with Calsedonia, glanced at Tatsumi and his friends behind him and looked a little strange .

“It’s a different face than usual . Isn’t it with the husband of” Free Knight “today?”

It seems that Calsedonia used this inn before when she was still teaming up with Morgannik .

The shopkeeper, who knew when Calsedonia and Morgannik were together, would have wondered if she was accompanied by someone other than Morgannik .

“Yes, I haven’t been working with Morgan these days . ”

“What, what? Did you have a fight with the husband of” Free Knight “?”

“My husband? I’ve said it many times before, but I and Morgan aren’t in that relationship, right?”

Calsedonia has a slightly stern look .

“Ah, as usual, Mr . Calsedonia . No, I heard that the” Saint “of the Survival Temple was finally married? Let me say congratulations, late . ”

“Thank you . So is the room vacant?”

“Oh, it’s vacant? How many rooms do you need?”

“Then, in two”

When Calsedonia raised two fingers, the shopkeeper tilted his head .

“As Calsedonia knows, we only have a large room other than a double room? If so, do we need three rooms?”

The shopkeeper says while comparing Calsedonia and the three Tatsumi behind it .

“No, one room for me and my husband, and the remaining one is Mr . Yerimao and Mr . Jolt … That’s fine, isn’t it?”

When Calsedonia turned around Jolt and Yerimao, they nodded as soon as they knew .

Tatsumi had no objection to the room allocation, but the owner of the store did not seem to .

“No, wait a minute! Calsedonia’s husband? What? Wasn’t Calsedonia’s married partner the husband of the Free Knight? I said Calsedonia got married . When I heard that, the husband of “Free Knight” was the opponent … “

It seems that the shopkeeper who knew Calsedonia and Morgannik once thought that Calsedonia and Morgannik were married when he heard that “Saint” was married .

What’s more, after hearing the rumor that the person who became the owner of “Saint Woman” repelled the flying dragon that attacked the royal capital, the owner’s belief that “Free Knight” could even defeat the flying dragon was even more so . It is .

“No, no . My husband is here ────”

Calsedonia took Tatsumi’s arm and entwined her arm around it, smiling happily .

“──── Mr . Tatsumi Yamagata, who defeated the flying dragon and got the title of” Tensho “ . ”

“Huh? Really? No, I didn’t say this, but what do you call it inferior to the husband of” Free Knight “…”

Tatsumi smiled bitterly at the words of the shopkeeper .

He himself thinks that not only the appearance but also the hunting of demons is still inferior to Morgannik, so he can understand the feelings of the shopkeeper .

But Calsedonia didn’t seem to be .

“What do you say? My husband is far better than Morgan?”

Her Yanagi eyebrows slowly stand upright .

Whether or not he knew it, Jolt and Yerimao, who were behind him, exchanged words fluently .

“Well, even though it’s only a day away from the royal capital, the rumors are already distorted . No, I’m scared, rumors . ”

“Huh? R-Really? No, I don’t want to say this, but he doesn’t look superior to the ‘free knight’ . ”

Tatsumi smiled bitterly at the words of the shopkeeper .

He himself thinks that he is still inferior to Morgannik in terms of both his appearance and hunting demons, so he can understand the feelings of the shopkeeper .

But Calcedonia not seem to .

“What did you say? My husband is far better than Morgan!”

Her Yanagi eyebrows slowly stand upright .

Whether or not he knew it, Jolt and Yerimao, who were behind him, exchanged words .

“Well, even though it’s only a day away from the royal capital, the rumors have already already distorted . Now I’m scared of the rumors . ”

“No, Jolt-kun . In this case, the rumors weren’t distorted, it was just a misunderstanding of the owner of this inn . Apparently, you are familiar with the former Calcedonia and the Free Knight . I think that the owner misunderstood that Calcedonia’s marriage partner was the ‘Free Knight’ because he knew the two of them well in the past . ”

The shopkeeper desperately nods to these two words . Apparently, he is aware of the danger of Calcedonia’s eyebrows standing upright .

“Ah, uh … I’m sorry, Calsedonia . The room is ready, so I’ll let you know right away . ”

“Well, then, please don’t make any strange misunderstandings in the future . ”

“I understand . Oh, Calcedonia’s husband… Um, Tatsumi, was it? I have to apologize to you . I didn’t mean to offend you . Please forgive me . ”

“No, don’t worry . I know I’m not as good as Morgan . Just you saying that is putting Calce in a good mood . ”

If Tatsumi laughs softly, the expression of Calcedonia, which had been harsh until then, will change to a soft one at once .

Then, when Jolt saw it, he sighed loudly and muttered as if he was amazed .

“That was a little too much, Calce . You should leave it to Tatsumi . ”
