Ex, who didn’t know that the butler Yesman was holding the exit gate, was carefree.

“Ah, this cushion is nice.”

“The seats in the carriage are fluffy and comfortable.” It seems to be a four-seater, and he sits side by side with Luka on board. Luxury.

Luka is enjoying the view of the city.

For the time being, he stopped in front of the gate.

“Bururu.”

“The horse snorts dissatisfiedly as if he wants to go early, but there are formalities.” I heard the coachman’s voice.

“Thank you for your hard work. The three of us are scheduled to travel to the neighboring town of Sheeptown in three days.”

“Oh, you’re going to a festival. Have a nice trip!”

“Say something nice to me

“Departure progress!”

“It was when I passed through the gate.”

The alarm went off after being caught in the security net of magic tools.

Beep!

“What’s going on?”

“I exchanged glances with Luka.”

I opened my long eyelashes worriedly and squeezed Luka’s hand as she stared at me. I looked outside cautiously, but I can’t see the shadow of the attacking monster from here.

“It looks like the carriage is still running.”

What happened?

When I turned around and looked at the gate, the gatekeeper riding a dragon rushed at a tremendous speed and circled in front of the carriage.

“Stop that carriage!”

picture! ?

Following the instructions, the horse was suddenly stopped and yelled “Hey hey!”.

“Wow”

Luka nearly jumped out of his seat in reaction to the sudden stop.

“Give me courage!”

“He pulled me closer and hugged me.”

As expected of me, I lost my balance and hit my head on the front seat. It hurts

“Are you okay, Luka?”

“Oh, thank you. It’s close.”

“It seems I’m a poor hero who gets hit by a chair.”

“Well, could the princess still be protected?”

“I don’t know why, but people gathered around the carriage we were riding in.”

“The atmosphere outside is tense.”

“Something may have happened.”

“What did you get involved in?”

I can hear the voices of the coachman and the gatekeeper.

“What are you talking about? We’re not guilty of anything.”

“It may be a malfunction, but there is a possibility that a fourth person of unknown affiliation is lurking in this carriage. Can you check it for safety? Everyone please get off.”

The small window of the carriage was opened and the driver called out apologetically.

“I’m sorry. For some reason I was checked. Can you help me?”

“Yes, I don’t mind. Let’s get off, Luka.”

“Yeah”

When I opened the door, the gatekeeper was holding a spear with a scary face. Eh, well.

“You guys, get off quickly.”

“yes”

When the gatekeeper rushed me down, he pointed his spear at the empty carriage. picture?

“Tell the fourth person who is hiding. Come out after thinking about it.”

The guards will join us and investigate under and above the carriage. amazing. … as expected of a professional. I had no idea someone was lurking.

“No way? I can’t find the fourth one anywhere.”

“However, even with a professional eye, it seems that they can’t find it.”

“I may have missed it.”

“Don’t panic, the culprit is holding his breath and most likely hiding nearby.”

After the veteran gatekeeper calmed down the panicking young gatekeeper, he calmly spoke to us.

“By the way, do you have any idea who the unknown affiliation is?”

“Affiliation unknown?”

“Why? Why? I’ve been searching desperately for a while, but there’s no one in the carriage. It’s a bum.”

“Wow Kumakichi, how to say it.”

“Well, Kumakichi has otherworldly eyes, so hide-and-seek doesn’t work.”

Callan!

I heard the sound of the spear falling to the ground.

“Looking at the sound, it seems the gatekeeper was so surprised that he dropped the spear.” And taking a fighting pose. Were you a martial artist?

“Wow! What? No, the stuffed animal is talking, huh?”

“Awawawa, it’s dangerous captain”

ah. I’m sorry that Kumakichi caused you trouble.

“Even though you were looking for a suspicious person, the talking stuffed animal is still too suspicious, right?”

“But the bear doesn’t seem to like it.”

“Oooh, is there something wrong with me talking? Say, what’s the deal!”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Gatekeeper. Kumakichi, let’s stay still. Look, don’t disturb my work.”

“Let go, buddy~”

When I hurriedly grabbed Kumakichi and apologized, the guard picked up the spear and, frightened, held the spear at Kumakichi. Back to spear use.

“Boy, what’s that?”

“I’m sorry. Kumakichi is a resident of the void. He’s like a spirit. Please rest assured that I won’t harm you.”

“This strange tree. I’m not bad, mugyu”

“Shall we shut up?” Kumayoshi-chan.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Yes, Kumakichi will be happy if you pet him.”

“Mmmmm”

“This is punishment.”

Kumakichi went on a rampage trying to escape punishment.

The gatekeeper’s uncle’s face changed to bewilderment.

“No, let’s refrain”

“Is that so?”

“I was depressed.”

Kumakichi was relieved.

“HQ.

“Okay, go back to normal business.”

It seems that the gatekeeper reported somewhere with a magic tool.

“Thank you for your cooperation. Have a nice trip!”

“yes”

In this way, Ex, whose affiliation was unknown because he didn’t have a certificate, was detected by a magic tool.

“I went on a three-day trip.”

“Buddy, the one just now was terrible.”

“Yeah. It’s Kumakichi’s fault for disturbing the gatekeeper.”

“Hey Ex. Did something weird happen earlier?”

Kumakichi hits his thighs repeatedly.

“Luka seems to be worried about something?”

“What’s wrong?”

“Well, anything goes. As long as I’m with you.”

“She seemed to have stopped thinking, and smiled softly.”

The carriage started moving forward again while engaging in a low-level battle with the playful Kumakichi.

“Oh, is this a carriage trip?”

“It looks like it will arrive much faster than walking.”
