Cursed Sword Master

"Oh! You sure are from the new team!... Sorry, what did you say your name was"

"That said, you only named the party. Excuse me. I am a leader in the new team. I say Fujinomiya Soujiro.

Good luck with that verse. When did you return? "

"No, it's no problem. I didn't name it either. I am a Luster in the Lord's Army and captain of the guerrilla forces. Nice to meet you.

It was yesterday that I returned because I had a succession. Many thanks to you. [M] Thank you again. "

It was the captain who was leading the crusade to the village of Coloni who met him in the courtyard of the Lords' Palace, which Mr. Will took him to visit. I wasn't sure I was wrapped up in armor and other gear then, but Luster in private clothes is a handsome guy who cut his dull blonde hair short with a skinny nice middle.

"No, because it's only a request based job"

"Hmm, Lord Fujinomiya is very itchy. Though the Seeker thought it was a quest for wealth and honor."

I want enough money to live to the point where I'm not poor, but I don't need a status or honor. But I don't even have to dare to tell you that, so I laugh vaguely and mislead you.

"Master Luster. I have an appointment today with Master Seira about the red meteor, but depending on what we're talking about, all three unit captains may be called.

If you could just stay at the Lordship Hall for a while now. "

"Holy shit! Did you make any progress on that whole outward road thing! Then we'll have to wait for the convocation. Let me be present, too.

If Lord Wilmark says so much, there will be a call sooner or later, and let's call on the Kingsguard and the Assault Captain. Nijika, Yojika and I need you to split up and get us two. "

When Luster speaks to the two boys he held back behind him, he looks like 13 or 4 very similar faces when he was old, or maybe twins because they're too similar. The twin said, "Yes!" He replies well and runs away.

"Are you Master Luster's current squire?

"Oh, I've managed to see my former squire, so I've repositioned him for Kingsguard and Assault."

To Will's question, Luster answers with a smile and drops off two people running away.

"What a bunch of nine brothers they have... the form I kept where those two were about to be sold for slacking.

But when we fight together because of the twins, we fight pretty good. I left it to my emotions to take on, but I think it was a good decision as a result. One or two more years to work out and you'll be a good warrior. "

The Lord's Army of Fresberg is currently composed of three teams in large part.

Kingsguard, mainly guarding the Lordship Hall and the city.

Assault squad aggressively attacking external enemies, warcraft, etc.

And the guerrillas who provide support and attacks on an ad hoc basis.

Apart from this, there are dozens of SS who escort their lords.

Each peek into the SS is accompanied by a captain, and it is the lord who unifies all three of them and the SS. The captains of the three squadrons are supposed to attach several squadrons each to teach their minds as soldiers and martial arts to defeat their enemies as they act together.

And once they have grown to some extent, they will be reassigned to a team other than that team. Doing so seems to be devising ways to train young people and not produce certainty among the three teams.

If there are more than one group with similar powers, they are likely to be unfriendly because of the competition and merit that went too far, but in this way it seems that the soldiers raised by each captain are able to connect between the three teams and recognize that they are one army in the three teams.

Even looking at Luster's response earlier, the system apparently works well.

"Come on, Lord Wilmark to Lord Fujinomiya. I'll show you to Lady Seira."

That's what I'm gonna say and walk out. We'll follow behind Luster.

"Lord Fujinomiya, if I may, will you let the party members have a room?

"No, I think we should do this together because they're a big part of this."

"Well, that sounds like a good fellow from the village of Coloni."

"Yes, because they are irreplaceable people and like family"

Luster said, "My team is the same," when he heard my words and smiled with a broken face. I guess it's a good team to talk about the twins earlier.

"Right here."

Luster opens the door without any hesitation when he stops in front of the larger door that was behind him upstairs.

"It's Luster, the guerrilla captain. I brought Lord Wilmark and Lord Fujinomiya of the Adventurer Alliance."

"Lord Luster! You again! Knock first when entering Master Seira's office! You've told me many times to open the door since I had permission!

Ooh... the door opened and at the same time a beautiful sword screen flew in. Apparently the same long-eared, pointy ears as Mr. Rüstilla peering through thin, long-haired gaps in a pale green line.

They don't wear protective equipment because of the inside of the building, but they have a fine sword (Rapier) down their hips and there is no such thing as an elf in this world, but if they were there, they would deserve the exact word "Elf lady knight".

"Miranda. I don't mind. In some cases, there will be a sudden need for reports. If you stick to the format and something important comes to an end, that's stupid."

"But!... No, you're right. Excuse me."

Behind her vision, which was finally opened when the female knight called Miranda lowered aside, Lord Fresberg, who was sitting at the desk, rose with his golden hair fluttering.

The office feels like some kind of principal's office, with a large concierge in the back of the front and then a bookshelf on one side of the wall. There is a reception set in front of the office that can accommodate visitors.

"I am Saira Maskride, Lord of Fresberg. We're finally here to see you."

"It's the first time I've seen you. It's the adventurer Fujinomiya Soujiro."

"Yes, Wilmark tells me you're an excellent adventurer.

Besides, we have also received reports of the extermination of the thieves and even the rescue of the survivors, in addition to making an urgent request to reconnaissance the village of Coloni.

Deep thanks to you as lords. Thank you so much. "

Was she in her early twenties, and Saira, a very young lord as a lord, bowed her head as she circled the desk and stood in front of me. A glance to the slightly empty chest thanks to the cancer reveals a glimpse of a deep valley there and the lord is a woman.

I was wondering if that was the case from the name. After all, the lord was a woman.

"No, as I told Captain Luster earlier, we just worked as adventurers."

"Yes, I just thanked you as a lord too"

Whoa, they took one of these. Doesn't Dada do a lord or something with a woman? A thin, glamorous blonde is not enough for a lord. Is it just that the outfit is wearing something like a male knight's outfit at all costs? If you were wearing feminine clothes, you would have been an eye-catcher. Of course it doesn't mean the men's clothes don't look good.

"Oh, excuse me. Keep him standing there. Please come this way. I've already been contacted by the fact that we have something important to talk about. It must be a circumstance around there that Luster is with us.

Miranda, tell Emma something to drink. "

"Understood."

Once Miranda leaves the room, we sit on the reception set as recommended by the lord. Saira and Luster are sitting face to face with us in line because of the Lord's side.

Wouldn't you like to sit next to someone on my planet who's intellectually a regular subordinate?

"Now, first of all, before we talk about the other urgent request, do you have any hope of paying extra for more work than the request?

Yeah, I thought you said Mr. Will might get an extra reward too. I haven't had much trouble with money lately and I totally forgot.

"Something? Does that mean there are other options besides money?"

"Right. It can be anything other than money, like dishes, paintings, other kinds of artwork, weapons and protective equipment that I keep in my possession, magic props, magic stones, various materials, etc."

Oh... your waist is thin and chubby, Mr. Seira. Then what shall we do? Surely the money hasn't been in that much trouble so far. Still no bounty for the bandit's weapon I gave you today.

Ah! That's right. I don't think it's possible because they say it's not Sistina's library of wisdom, but if you're in the position of lord, you might know something, so why don't you ask me?

"What, for example, is there some kind of magic device that you can store in a mysterious space?

"Mysterious space... is it? Sure would be useful to have something like that. But unfortunately, you've never heard of anything like that. Excuse me."

"No, I don't mind. Because I knew it wasn't there. So no good guys with robotic protective gear?

I'm going to ask because I wanted to remind you of how Sistina was bloodstained in the battle at the tower before this to give you a little more defense all over her body. Because Mr. Lüstilla's breastplate is an excellent piece of equipment, but partial.

"Okay. I'm sure there were a few of them, so I'll make sure by the time you get home."

"Thank you"

Where I bowed my head, a samurai came in with Miranda and a drink in the basin and left a glass on the table. Then Miranda kicks Luster's leg and stands diagonally behind Seira.

After all, they don't usually sit next to each other.

"Let me give you an overview first."

Mr. Will cut out the story, anticipating that the members were aligned.

"Oh my... I didn't know you not only repelled the night raid, but deliberately let the thief escape to guide you to Azit. Not to mention the skill level of the new team, but the skill level of your scouts is great. I just want it to be a scourge for my team."

It was the Luster guerrilla captain who reacted first after receiving information from Mr. Will again on the tower and reports from last night's night raid to the discovery of Azito.

In the case of cherry blossoms, the meaning is subtly different because they are more ninjas than scouts, but Sistina is the only person in this world who can tell the difference, so you won't have to dare correct them.

By the way, it was also the cherry blossom decision that deliberately removed Kunai to let one escape and poked him against the wall, making him a scaffold for the bandits.

"Thank you for the compliment. But cherry blossoms are also an essential member of our family."

I gently stab the nail in Luster's words as he strokes the cherry blossom head, which is praised and illuminated with "eheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh I don't think there's any pull-out, and if you're going to use your power to take it away, I'm going to fight it out thoroughly, but I want to avoid it if I can take care of it, so I'll make it clear that pull-out isn't possible.

"What, don't worry. Of course I do. But you wouldn't mind asking our scouts for guidance sometime, would you?

"If that's about it. However, we are not adequately staffed by mansion guards, etc., so it would be nice if this matter were cleared up successfully."

"Thank God! My guerrilla squad depends a lot on scouts. It's always urgent to cultivate good scouts."

Indeed, a quick surrounding foe and intelligence gathering would be an essential ability from the role of the guerrillas. I don't think a normal person can imitate when instructed by a sword-corrected cherry blossom, but it would depend on their efforts to spread a completely different world than when they just didn't know how to turn off signs or how to walk quickly without making noise.

"Then all you have to do is crusade the red meteor. If the Azitos in the mountains have been discovered thanks to Lord Fujinomiya and the others, we should form a crusade and attack them."

Luster positive for the crusade is motivating me with a nod, yeah, but I'm concerned about Sayla, the lord who hasn't spoken a word since this story started. Because I didn't think it was as positive about the crusade as it was about Luster.

"With the information that Fujinomiya and the others have obtained, I think we can destroy or devastate the Red Meteor, the Great Bandits. We need the help of the Lord's Army to do that."

I'm not returning a reaction with my mind in mind. Mr. Will requests your help again. If you try it on Mr. Will, you won't really need to defeat the Bandits.

If Fresberg were to be attacked, there would be a Bayce Chamber of Commerce headquarters here, which in some cases might be damaged, but the Bayce Chamber of Commerce headquarters would be near the center of the city and wouldn't get that far where about a hundred bandits have attacked.

Not that it's possible to say that ordinary people turned into thugs multiplied by the confusion that the bandits have come to attack the Chamber of Commerce, but I don't see how ordinary people can do this with the private soldiers hired by the Bayce Chamber of Commerce, and more importantly, the Bayce Chamber of Commerce carpenters are mostly carpenters who can fight with Mr. Ghent at the head.

If you get your hands on the detour, it will be the attacker who sees the painful eyes. If you think about it, Mr. Will doesn't hurt himself at all where the outer perimeter of the city was attacked somewhat. Yet the one thing that is positive about the crusade is that I don't want to ketch into the Adventurer Guild that I created with all my soul at this stage.

The other one is worried that we're being targeted by bandits living in the mansion we sold.

Later, I was hoping that we would be active in the crusade. Our passionate fan, Mr. Will, loves to talk about how we work.

But if you return the back, that's Mr. Will's motive. I'd rather be in the outer periphery, but if only one part were attacked, it would be the lord, Saira, who would want to aggressively crusade the bandits.

"I understand the story very well. First of all, I would like to thank you for crusading the red meteor platoon and the executives who lead it, and for pinpointing Ajito."

Saira bows her head again with thanks. But the eyes there when the lowered head came back were very harsh.

But as a Fresberg, we can't send out soldiers for the Red Meteor Crusade.

"Huh..."

Mr. Will, who I was sure would get a good reply, is solidifying. I'm not so stunned because I'm surprised, too, but I thought it might be half possible.

"For once, may I ask why you are maintaining your current state of affairs that you may be attacked by bandits?

I'd like to know from the person why he dropped off the troop as a lord, though I know why somehow.

"... right. I get it.

First and foremost, it's not decided that the city can still be attacked. This is a tribute to you, but those who were two executives and their men have been defeated, and the opponent's battle power is visibly diminished. "

"Dear Saira. Don't forget the bandits in the village of Coloni. Fujinomiya and the others have been defeated by nearly 30 bandits."

Luster, who at some point is calling me away, tells Sayla about the village of Coloni, where he was also involved.

"You did. Together with that, the red meteor is halved by constituents who say the 200 was initially rumored to be. It's hard to imagine, given the size of the city of Fresberg, that it would be raided by about a hundred people.

Still, just in case, we split personnel from the Kingsguard and the Assault Squad, and on the missing part, we ask the Adventurer Guild to help the Adventurers as well to provide perimeter security.

By showing you that you are not alert, I believe you are further reducing the risk of an attack. "

Certainly would be right. There are probably tens or hundreds of thousands of people in the city of Fresberg in the first place. Attacking a city that size with about a hundred people would normally be nothing but reckless.

However, I guess the infamy of red meteors has been ringing so much because I do that.

"The second is the location of Azit.

Excellent as a scout, that one seems to be pretty deep from the way you went from entering the mountain to reaching Azit.

It's only recently that the bandits have entered this mountain, but it won't mean they don't keep track of their geography around Azit.

I think there's a good chance that they'll do a lot of damage without being able to exert their power where the Lords' Army has never marched or anything like that into the mountains.

In polar terms, I'm even assuming the possibility of total annihilation by the time we get to Ajito. "

Again... I was thinking about it when I heard from Cherry Blossom. Not just Ajito, but a good location to attack in large numbers. In addition to that, if the Lords have not trained as envisaged in the battle in the mountains...

I guess I won't be able to take advantage of the advantage of ambush first. He is first spotted by a 100% bandit while on the move. If discovered, some kind of trap could be set, and if the benefits of numbers can't be harnessed, it's not suitable for the bandits who would be used to fighting in the woods.

Then it is still possible that we should carry out an ambush alone, as Hotaru said.

"Sorry Fujinomiya. Seeing that sight, as far as I'm concerned, I wanted to tear down the red meteor that was the killer..."

"No, because what the lord is saying is not wrong"

The response to Luster is sincere, but what was a little surprising was that the guerrilla captain, who was so positive about the crusade, heard Sayla's views and did not make any objections.

This is proof that Luster is putting his faith in Seira's judgment. I was also thinking about the possibility of being a decorative lord because of the fact that I am still a young lady lord, but apparently I have sufficient abilities as a lord and also as a commander.

Concon

"Captain Gaston, Commander of the Kingsguard, this is Huey."

At the same time that it was concluded that the crusaders could not end up, the office door was knocked and the rest of the captain Luster was calling arrived.

Seira naturally doesn't know she's coming, so when she asks Luster with her gaze, Luster nods back that she called him.

"I see... maybe you should know for sure. Please both come in"

"Excuse me."

……………

The door opened and came in with a man on the strong side who felt exactly like a giant man with a very good physique, and the other, by contrast, a willow-like man with a morbidly thin physique and long hair dripping down to the front of his face.

"Gaston, Huey. There has been progress in relation to the bandits that have been on the table since the other day, so I'll be brief."

That being said, Saira summarized the main points of her earlier story and told the two of them the conclusion that no crusaders would come up after all.

"I think there will be a mental burden on my men sooner or later when the situation continues that they may be attacked. I'm not opposed to maintaining the status quo per se, but if it's going to take a long time, I'd appreciate it if you could take action on those matters."

"Okay, Gaston. Tomorrow will be the end of the guerrilla vacation, so please reassemble the shifts of the soldiers on guard and reduce the burden."

"Ha!"

Is the big one Gaston? I bow my head to Seira's instructions. She looks serious manly in several respects for her big body from that attitude and language.

"Does Huey have anything?

…………………

"He wants us to reinforce security not only in the outer perimeter, but also in the main hall."

It seems that Huey, who has an atmosphere like O-cho that comes out of a certain TV after watching it all the time, is not silent, but just has a small voice. Gaston, who heard it right around the corner, speaks for Huey.

"You're alert to the assassination of the lords by the bandits, and the raids multiplied by that chaos. I get it.

Miranda, please increase the SS beside me to two at all times. SS orders life in the Lords' Palace until they all have a life to disarm. SS will allow detention without question if they find a strange face in the building that is not guided by a samurai or SS.

Huey, select from the Kingsguard and contact security on and around the premises. For a while, gardeners, etc. will be prohibited from entering and leaving, so suspects may be detained in the same manner. "

………

Huey's hair shakes loosely. Apparently, he indicated his intention to understand. I mean, because I'm scared!

"Luster, I've asked for the support of every squad. Please pack the details for the three of us after this. Gaston can make the result a brief report and submit it to me as the main point alone.

Now, the three of you can leave now, so please do it right away. "

"Okay."

"Ha!"

………

Saira told me to take a seat, and Luster said, "Sorry Fujinomiya. Let me have a cup of luxury when I get laid," he said with a smile and left the office pressing the back of the two captains.
