2 weeks after new year.
The new year festival was over too, and the usual daily life returned to the Imperial Capital.
We were also all prepared for the journey, and will finally be leaving the Imperial Capital today, heading for the territory of Cordato marquis.
“Uoooo! Amazing!”
I unconsciously let out a voice of admiration.
A carriage for traveling, prepared by the royal palace, is in front of my eyes.
No, it’s not correct to call it a carriage.
There isn’t a horse at any rate.
Instead of a horse as a source of power, there is an object similar to a cockpit projecting out.
Though I do not understand what kind of mechanism it is, it probably works by magic.
Not a carriage, but a magic car huh.
It’s convenient as we do not need to take care of the horse.
It’s fairly large too, around the size of a bus. (TN: Isn’t it the magic school bus?)
It’s somewhat like a house with quasi-bed, table, chairs and toilet in it, and a viewing platform above the roof etc.
But like this, it doesn’t seem to be able to do tight turns though.
Small magical formations are drawn throughout the exterior of the magic car, and it seem to be designed to improve the durability.
If I tried to move this with horses, I don’t know if several of them would be necessary.
As expected of the royalty.
Even traveling is done with a celebrity-like camper-van huh.
Impressive.
I am a man too.
The excitement doesn’t stop with the state of art technology of the different world in front of my eyes.
“Above all, it seems to be able to please you.”
Looking at me who is in high spirits, Rithina is feeling satisfied too.
“Although it certainly is amazing, it’s surprising for Haruto to be in such high spirits.”
“Really. It’s just a box for traveling, why are you so happy?”
Since gauge fort, Sharon and Laurier with an adventurer’s look after a long time says.
Somehow, there is a slight out of place feeling at a noticeable level with her smartly dressed attire, because Laurier often hangs around the residence with a feeling of ordinary shut-in, in a state of exposure with slovenly clothing.
Fuu.
Do women and children not understand the coolness and greatness of this magic car?
If it’s with the technicians who made this magical car, I feel like I can talk with them until morning.
“Haruto-sama. The loading of the change of clothes, food and such has completed.”
“Is that so. Thank you, Mina.”
Mina reports the completion of the final preparations for departure.
I thank Mina, and pats her head.
The four girls generally like to have their head patted.
However, Mina seem to enjoy it particularly.
Is it because she is a cat-ear beast-man?
There is this happy face when her head is patted.
I can pat it no matter for how long.
“Nnnn〜〜……♪”
There is an impetus for a purring-like sound from her throat.
She’s dangerously cute.
I want to kiss her.
R, regrettable.
Presently, Leon’s group have also came to see us off.
As a master, I cannot afford to show them the place where I have no principle.
For the reason for the trip, the fact of the explanation that it’s for the sake of surrounding myself with girls are left out.
Mina is coming along too, naturally.
It turned out to be that she will mainly take care of Rithina’s daily life in general.
All the other members are girls except for me.
I think it will be a fun trip.
It seems to be around 2 weeks to reach the marquis territory.
It’s said that another smaller path would be a shorter route if we are in a hurry, but this magical car is huge anyway.
I hear that it’s necessary to make a little detour.
“Mr.Haruto. Although it’s the business of inspecting the regional grounds, take care along the way.”
While I was looking entranced at some sort of suspension system of the magical car, Leon’s group came to address me.
Inspection?
Does Leon not know the purpose this time?
It’s better not to know.
“Ah. Thank you.
I will pay attention so that it doesn’t become something bad.”
I standd up and speak with Leon.
Aura, Caroline and Yunikram gives greetings of encouragement too.
I exchange greeting with each of them respectively.
After that, Leon’s group exchanged greetings with Sharon’s group.
In these four months, we have became surprisingly good friends with the hero’s party.
When I was thinking of that.
“Please take care Clato.”
Suddenly, I hear an unfamiliar voice close to my ears.
