"Hih!"

Lapitilica, who took off her tactical kevlar mask and saw my face from the front, screamed a small scream. Having started working as an adventurer shortly after adulthood and reached the depths of the labyrinth of the Green Ghost as a C-rank adventurer, it seemed that my face, seen at a distance across a table, could not stand to speak up, to say the least.

The face below with the Kevlar mask off is naturally not Schwartz's. I didn't think I could talk to someone with a mask on who said he was an aristocrat. I will definitely show my face. If I wasn't prepared for that, I wouldn't have taken the option of meeting the Duke. I should have taken no action as a shaft until most of it cooled down.

My face now is systematically altered by avatar customization. This does not mean that Schwartz's face, which is bare, can be freely changed. It is not possible to customize the skeleton of the face or the shape of the eye and nose.

However, as a face accessory, molluscs, scars, tattoo paints, face paints, etc. can be set.

I used it and set it on Zombie Face, the face paint I got from an exclusive event I did at VMB. There is also a combination with the bat man mask, which is faceted only on the upper half of the face, but the skin is reddish and discoloured, the eyes are cloudy and white, the skin around the left eye is rotten and the eyeballs peel off heavily. There is no epithelium on the right side, the facial expressive muscles are revealed, and the forehead area, which is the upper part of the face, is rotten and bald like a burn.

"Are you sure about this?

"Oh, oh, you can put on your mask now"

Wearing the Kevlar mask again, I glanced at Marta beside him - he was so surprised.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And because I said no, I could confidently carry out the deception in this way.

Shaft, let's get back to this.

When I finished wearing the Kevlar mask, a magnificent man sitting beside Lapitilica cut it out.

"Yeah, are you sure in His Excellency the Duke of Franklin Barga?

"Oh, I'm Franklin Barga. The knight on the side is Steed Barga, the leader of the Western Barga Knights. And this girl wants to ask you to escort her, Lapitilica Barga."

If this knight is the Knights Commander, he will be escorted to Lapitilica.

"It's a shaft."

While sitting on the couch, I decided to keep my head down and show some respect. I have asked Marta in advance for a brief courtesy, but honestly I do not know how far I can go correctly. Well, let's hope there's no problem as long as we show our sincerity.

"Your rumors have reached below me in Varga."

"Rumors, is it?

"Yes, crush the Yagoche Chamber of Commerce, the emerging chamber of commerce in Wangdu, by the time it is completely skinless, crush the bandits" ghost lotus (Onybus) alone, and the black-sided mercenaries who don't even hate the destruction of Wangdu if they are to protect their escort targets. Back society around Wang Capital is rumouring that you shouldn't have your hands on the black side of the escort. "

What the heck is that... you mean totally overdone...

"Sounds like a lot of rumors."

"Really? But I'm craving that rumor."

"I mean, if you let me escort Master Lapitilica, you'll suppress the movements of those who believed in the rumors?

"Well, of course I'm counting on your own strength. There are only two men and women who can take you to the royal castle or dinner party, so I'd like to put something stronger there that affects you more."

"Your Excellency, I will explain the details to you."

"Really? Okay, please."

That said, Captain Steed, who was standing behind the couch, came around forward.

"Shaft, I'd like to ask your lord to escort you for about a month. Larry and His Eminence the Duke will be on their way to the King's Capital in a few days. Stayed in the Wang capital for a few days, then headed to another regional city and returned to the Wang capital again. Until we get back to Varga, that's the time I want to ask you to do it."

"Does the main escort place mean street?

"Ask them to stay beside Larry at all times, as well as the streets. Several attendances at night clubs are scheduled in Wang capital and regional cities. I want you to join me in that."

"I see... my lord. Is Lapitilica being targeted by someone? If you are in danger enough to need my rumors, you will also need to make requests to adventurers, such as the Knights and the Camellias (Southern Ka), to which Lapitirika was a part."

"You're absolutely right. But the Western Knights of Varga cannot cross the territory of Varga. And Camellia is a very trustworthy clan, but there are also many aristocratic courtiers in it, like Larry. They'll never make it to the social world until they've achieved something."

Indeed, Mr. Meeche said that Camellia has many aristocratic warrants in attendance... But isn't it okay with other mercenaries in general? I thought so and tried to hear it, but the Duke seemed to have even more reason.

"Besides, Mr. Shaft, I'm not going to let anyone anywhere and escort Larry. If we solve that problem and find a more powerful escort, there's no other place for us than you."

Duke Barga's thin, sharp eyes continue to capture my cloudy eyeballs inside the Kevlar mask. Is this guy the type to judge people by their eyes, I keep exploring my abyss?

"I'm only one of those elephant mercenaries, too."

Naturally, my eyes won't let go either, capturing the Duke's. This magnificent figure can be seen to have strong beliefs and firm confidence, backed by soft physical hips and tones. You don't seem to give up easily.

"No, you're not. I know that the Marida Chamber of Commerce is covering your identity. It's hard to think of a man in Malta's eyes as a concurrent mercenary of an ordinary adventurer. That's all you have to look at. You're a successful client for this one."

This is...... hard to say no. First of all, I don't have a clear reason to say no. Even if there were other jobs, what is a job that takes precedence over a request from the Duke? Maybe he was packing it at a time when he couldn't prepare it.

And if you turn this down, it could scratch the Marida Chamber of Commerce. If you refuse the Duke's invitation to hire me as your exclusive escort, you can have an unnecessary bad reputation...

"I'm in awe. Lapitilica's escort, we will take it."

"Well, do me a favor, Mr. Shaft."

"Ha - one last time, what am I supposed to protect Lapitilica from?

This question was asked some time ago, but I have to check it out. I've decided to escort him. I need information. And the answer was answered by Captain Steed.

"Everything."

"Everything?"

"From all the demon-guided aristocrats, with daughters as old as I went up to the social world."

Huh?
