Chapter 19 – The Uncouth daughter and the wyvern
After riding in a coach for ten days, I arrived in a provincial town called Roca.
Compared to the royal capital, there were far fewer people and stores.
This is also the place to change rides when going to the frontier.
This is because the land away from the royal capital is not well maintained with roads and cannot be traveled by coach.
What is used to ride on, then, are magical beasts that can move along narrow roads and through the air.
The beasts that could be ridden by people were called cavalry beasts, and they had been specially trained.
There were no cavalry beasts in the Marquisate of Evantail, so this is the first time I have actually seen one.
I could see them in various places in this city, such as stores selling cavalry beasts, stores renting them out, and vendors carrying people on their cavalry beasts.
The most common is the winged horse that runs through the sky...... Pegasus. They are similar to horses in handling and are apparently very popular.
There are also large birds with long legs and reptilian cavalry beasts.
The beast we will ride would be brought to us by the people of Sutrena territory.
However, I can't ride a cavalry beast at all. Not only can I not ride a cavalry beast, but I can't even ride a horse.
I would have to be carried by someone else.
I asked my husband, Nazel, who was standing next to me.
"Has Lord Naser had any experience riding a cavalry beast?"
"Of course. As part of my royal education, I have traveled to various territories. I also had the opportunity to train to ride a cavalry beast. They are not in demand in the royal capital, but there is nothing better than being able to ride one."
Just as expected of Lord Nazel. He's so dreamy.
While waiting for our pickup to show up, we observed the city at our assigned spot.
It was a corner of a small, clean waiting area with new tables and chairs.
"Agnes can ride the beast with me."
"Thank you."
It was a great relief to hear Lord Nazel say so.
After a while, a freckled boy rushed into the waiting room.
With his tanned skin and almost orange-brown hair, typical of the frontier, he blinked when he saw us and then approached us at a quick pace.
"Lord Nazelbert, I presume."
"Yes, I am. I assume you're the one picking us up from Sutrena Territory?"
"Yes, my name is Tony Fawn. So ......"
Tony scurried around the waiting room for some reason. Then he looked up at Lord Nazel with a puzzled look.
"Where is your wife?"
"..........."
I'm here, I'm right here. Right in front of your eyes.
Silence fell over the waiting room.
After a coherent cough, Lord Nazel stretches one of his arms behind my back.
"Let me introduce you. This is my wife, Agnes."
I smiled and greeted Tony.
"Nice to meet you, I am Agnes. Thank you for coming to pick me up."
It's okay. I let Kelly take care of my clothes and makeup today.
They wouldn't have to run away at first sight the moment we saw each other. Kelly is a very good maid.
Tony was looking at me with his mouth gaping open and a look of disbelief.
Then Lord Nazel smiles at him while supporting my back.
"I'm proud of my wife."
Eh~! No way, don't be absurd!
While I was fumbling around, Tony seemed to recover and led us to where the cavalry beast was. But......
"T-That is...?"
I was curious to see the cavalry beast up close for the first time, but Lord Nazel looked as if he wanted to say something.
The beast screeching in front of me is a kind of magical beast called a wyvern, which resembles a lizard.
If it is a lizard, there were plenty of them in the Evantail family's yard, this one is just a bigger one with wings on it. I'm glad it wasn't a strange magical beast~!
"Agnes, I mean, are you okay?"
As I gazed at the wyvern, I was approached by a concerned Nazel.
"Hmm? What is it?"
"No, I thought that a pegasus would be provided. Wyverns scare a lot of women......."
"I am fine. Can you ride it even though it's not a pegasus?"
"Oh, I can ride a Wyvern, but..."
"Good. Now then, let's get on with it."
It's my first time riding a cavalry beast, so I'm very nervous.
Before us is a beautiful wyvern with bright blue scales and green eyes.
It is quiet and looks at us with curious eyes. Is it a male or a female?
"All right, all right, you're a good girl, aren't you? You are a beautiful girl, aren't you? I just love creatures like you."
"Eh, is that so?"
"I couldn't keep anything in the house because my father and mother didn't like it."
Many small beasts lived in the garden, sheep were kept in the Marquisate of Evantail, and there were sheepdogs. I remember seeing cows, chickens, goats, and cats.
I even snuck out of the house in the middle of the night and went to touch the nocturnal beasts.
Unlike humans, they did not comment on my appearance, and they would not hurt me.
"Well, I'll let you get on with it."
After I finish petting the wyvern in front of me, I hook my feet on the metal fittings and crawl easily up onto its back. The clothes Kelly has dressed me in are not flouncy and designed for easy riding.
At one point on its back, there was what looked like a saddle, so I sat on it.
"Dear Nazel, do you want to ride in the front or in the back?"
"It's not safe in the back. Agnes, you ride in front and I'll support you."
"Understood."
Sliding forward, Nazel jumped on the back seat with a nimble movement.
Smart in everything you do, so cool......!
Tony has a dumbfounded look on his face, but I wonder what's wrong? Oh well.
We asked everyone who followed us from the Florescence household to return as we head to the Sutrena territory with just me, Lord Nazel and Kelly.
Kelly rode in the red wyvern with Tony.
