Hagure Seirei Ino Shinsatsu Kiroku~ Seijo Kishi-dan to Iyashi no Kamiwaza ~

After breakfast, on the ground floor of the fortress, Mr. Raquel said he was gathering each troop leader for a morning prayer, so I went to check on him.

"The First Attack Team will be on alert around the fortress today. The second squad rehearses under my guidance. The third squad shall stand by today. I will allow you to leave the fortress, but not unless it is an important requirement. Don't get me wrong, it's not a rest day. Give credit to those who have achieved merit by looking for what they can do"

"" "Got it, Chief Knight!!

In this Knights, looking up to heaven with your hands on your chest seems to be a way of paying homage to your opponent in sight.

Mr. Raquel goes on to make a call to the other squadrons. There are three attack squads and two archer squads. Mr. Presha is the captain of the third squad, so it seems he means standby today.

After a total of fifteen captains broke up, I never stopped thinking before Mr. Raquel returned to the office.

"Raquel Knight Chief. Glass Weed, I'm out."

Mr. Raquel turns around slowly - when seen with his cleavage eyes, tension still runs all over his body.

"... you don't have to dare use military-like language."

"Yes... because I'm not just a doctor, I'm a military doctor. I feel like I'm a soldier, and I want to do my job."

"I got reports from Diete and Katie. In last night's enemy attack, he said he worked well... he's only just arrived, so the first thing you need to do is get used to it. Instructions from me are not available at this time"

I told you yesterday to come and ask for directions, and I didn't know there was anything - and I'm not even angry. Because I heard about last night and maybe you're taking it into account.

"... As for the prisoners, it will take some time before they can be questioned. As far as I can tell, your magic is not so much about interrogation as about making your enemies fully heard. Did that girl named Arlaune have such power"

"Yes... I didn't envisage using it that way either. We want to use the help of Arlaune when we need it."

"In itself, I wouldn't blame you, either, and I should rather say thank you for your contribution. If you don't abuse that hypnotic magic."

"Chief Raquel, would you look like Master Glass would do that?

I know you can't help being suspicious, but Mr. Rendle's right, I would never do that.

"... right. You were just enthusiastic and honest when you came to the rancher's treatment. I guess that's what happened last night...... Katie and Diete had a good look when we talked about you. That masculine Presha seems to have some respect for you, too."

"So why are you doubting Master Glass...?

"That's... because it's too much, too much. He can't be an educated soldier as a commanding candidate, such as mastering his popularity so quickly. Objectively, it's unusual."

Indeed, until now, we have been able to make good use of spiritual magic, and everything has meshed.

But I didn't cut through it by myself. It's because of all the power of the Knights, and because Mr. Rendle was there.

"I, for this Knights... no. Formerly, I came here as a court magician serving His Highness Astina. My covenant spirits were something no one at the School of Magic would recognize. But I wanted to use it for people. As a doctor, I thought I could do that."

Mr. Raquel listened to me in silence. If you look away, you won't gain trust - there's nothing behind me, so there's nothing to deviate from.

Eventually, Mr. Raquel takes a small breath. And you sent your gaze behind me.

"Presha, what are you looking at? The Third Squad said stand by."

"Huh... La, Raquel sister. Maybe I spoke badly, but it's not like Sister Raquel to question Dr. Glass. If everyone works hard, they appreciate it properly, and they always see it fairly..."

Mr. Presha seems to have been worried about us and watching - she keeps complaining to Mr. Raquel as she blushes when she meets me.

"I trust Dr. Glass. It's not just because I want you to keep helping me. If I had a teacher, this Knights would be better..."

"... may be so"

"... Huh?

Mr. Raquel affirms Mr. Presha's words. I thought I heard wrong, but before I checked with her, I had something to suggest.

"Chief Raquel, if you don't have any particular instructions, may I make a suggestion on my own mission for today?"

"Dr. Glass, do you want to do something?

"This fortress is now in serious food distress. That's a good idea to see what dinner and breakfast are all about. Chronically monotonous dietary content can create various obstacles."

"... Nearby farmers have requested demonic extermination. But that demon is not something that can be easily eradicated. And once it appears, the field becomes useless. Even the Knights are strong enough not to be defeated easily... then it's hard to send out soldiers"

Zirconia is not the only enemy. Threat enough to line it up - a powerful demon that erodes the field is tormenting this Knights.

- But with regard to the fact that the field will be useless, I might be able to strike a countermeasure. Field crops are also plants, and there is a close relationship between plants and soil.

"Chief Raquel, please. Could you send me to inspect the fields attacked by demons?"

"... no. Misushi, you can't risk a freshly arrived military doctor..."

"Then I'm coming with you! We're on standby, so you're not forbidden to move to solve any problems in the realm."

"What are you talking about, you have men too. Only the captain goes out on his own…"

"Then I will accompany you, too. The only person who can look for Mr. Presha is someone more than the captain... I was on defense last night, so I have a standby order."

Mr. Diete will accompany you - if the two captains are together, I do feel comfortable. But there's also the feeling that it's really good.

To me like that, Mr. Diete makes me meditate on one eye.

"Chief Raquel, don't impose dietary restrictions on other executives, only you and His Highness Astina are eating the same meal as junior soldiers, which is quite a pain in the chest. Don't think you won't notice and don't take such gentle consideration"

"What... did you? I, too, shared it with everyone in the team when the fruit came out... Sister Raquel, you said the meal was a source of the body, but I can't believe you're not curing it."

"… the supply of food from the centre is lagging, but sooner or later it will be eliminated. Until then, we'll be saving food across the fortress, so should I."

Then we cannot maintain the body of Mr. Raquel, a heavily armed cavalry. It's not just about nutrition, she's overburdened with her body and her care isn't enough.

"Because we have little stockpile of medicines, we need to solve the problem of food distress in order to do so. I swear I won't take any chances... please, let me go inspect"

Keep your head down again. Next to me, Mr. Rendle imitated me.

"... ok. Even though it is difficult to solve it, leaving it alone also involves the existence of the Knights. Protecting people is what keeps us knights."

"Sister Raquel...... eh"

"That's the Knight Chief...... at the end of the day, you ask. That's why I like you."

To Mr. Diete's words, Mr. Raquel closes his eyes and sighs. It also seemed to be directed at me.

"Going back by sundown. Don't put your hands on demons if you decide they are dangerous. Promise me you'll go."

'Yes!'

We'll get back to you. Mr. Presha and Mr. Diete were smiling face-to-face.

On this inspection, I want to grasp the thread that solves the food problem. Meals are not only a matter of nutritional status, they are also a matter of direct connection to the morale of the Knights - no matter what, we need to restore food productivity in the territory.
