CHAPTER 49 – CARRIAGE

It’s almost noon. A single carriage arrives at the center square of the village.

「Waa, Melu! It’s Dirk’s first time seeing a carriage this big!」

When the carriage stops, the passengers get off from the rear.
Two adventurer-looking men, an old couple, and one young woman. There were also two men in driving the carriage. A total of seven people.

「We will also get on that carriage and ride to Lease」
「I can ride in the carriage!?」
「Yes, are you looking forward to it?」
「Un, extremely!」

Dirkhert who was jumping around while pyokopyoko waving his hands looked really pleased.
And another person who seems to be happy……

「Dirk-sama has interest in the carriage…… he’s finally interested in something boyish……!」

Volsung was really delighted that Dirkhert who so far showed interest only in flowers and stuffed animals has finally shown interest in carriage which can be considered a boyish interest.

「Nee, when will we get on? When can I ride it?」
「Right now, it’s time for everyone to have a lunch so after a little bit」
「Uu~ I want to get on fast!」

Dirkhert touches the big wheels which are larger than him, he feeds the horses some grass. He aimlessly loiters around the carriage.

「Horse-san, pulling something so big, you are amazing. Anone, Dirk will also get on later, you know? Take care of me, okay~」

When he crouches in front of the horse and says that, the horse neighs and touches Dirkhert’s face with its nose.

「Uhyaa~ Horse-san, that’s ticklish~」

He receives the horse’s face while saying that, but he couldn’t stand against its power and kept rolling backward all the time. The horse face attack continued for a while, but Dirkhert finally releases it after it started eating grass again. He rolled away from the horse and stood up.

「Uwaa~ that startled me~…… I’m sticky all over」
「Ah mou, we are about to set out, aren’t you all muddy now!」
「Horse-san you see, it had made me gorogoro with its tongue」

Meluerina hastily grabs Dirkhert and runs to the Inn
When they enter inside, the people who get down from the carriage a little while ago were eating their lunches there.
Meluerina and Volsung who already had their lunch put Dirkhert in the corner and bring a wet towel, bucket, and change of clothes.

「We will wipe your dirty face and change your clothes」
「Ye~s」

Volsung wipes Dirkhert’s face with a wet towel skillfully as if already used to it and Meluerina changes Dirkhert’s clothes in the meantime.

「Don’t dirty your clothes again, okay?」
「Ye~s」

He answered yes, but the little Maou-sama was about to jump out of the Inn again. It goes without saying that Volsung caught him in a panic.
