Chapter 60

There’s a seasonal word [Yukibare] (1)

Today is such a day .

The earth sparkles with white while the sky is a never-ending blue .

It’s so dazzling it’s hard to keep my eyes open .

I was digging Chasers grave on such a beautiful morning .

The frozen ground was obviously hard but my friends helped me without saying anything .

I turned towards my friends on the gently sloping hill I had buried Chaser on .

“Again, thank you all . You came looking for me and helped me bury Chaser . Thank you . ”

Everyone just shakes their heads silently and Patty placers her hand on my arm .

“Let’s return to Nepia Ippei . ”

That might be nice .

My trip has ended here, in this place .

You should always move forward as long as you live but sometimes a little rest is necessary . Though if you can, try to put those rests near the end .

“Yeah, however, before I return there’s somewhere I need to go first . It’s a small town called Chipham…… . . ”

My voice chokes up .

Just thinking of Alma and Casey makes my hands shake .

How weak am I?

Patty’s hand strongly grasped my arm .

“Let’s go to Chipham . ”

Thank you Patty .

I’m scared . I’ve explored the labyrinth but here I am frozen in fear from the thought of meeting a mother and daughter .

Then something strange happened . It was like I heard a voice from heaven .

“Please finish Chaser’s story . ”

It’s a strict voice but tender at the same time . I was told not to run away .

Alma welcomed me with a smile at her house .

“h.e.l.lo priest-sama . Are you alone today?”

“Yeah . Casey?”

“She’s at school today . ”

I felt a little relieved at her words .

Alma started to look uneasy at my expression and her smile clouded over .

“Something’s happened . ”

“Yes…… . . Chaser died . ”

“………I see . ”

Tears fall from Alma’s eyes .

“When you came alone I had a feeling somehow . He never came out and said it but he had wanted to die for a long time . ”

“I guessed as much . He seemed to expect his fall but I don’t know why . ”

“Do you know why he quit being a knight?”

“Over tax collection though Chaser called it looting . I heard he let some people escape and went against his superior officer so he was cast out . ”

“So it goes and that’s the official facts but Chaser wasn’t fired . He quit himself . ”

“What happened to him then?”

“Chaser started letting the villagers escape but not all of them would leave . They were desperate . If they gave up their crops and money a lot of them would not survive the winter so naturally there was resistance . ”

“So in other words…… . ”

“Yeah . Chaser had to kill the people he was trying to save . Even if the women and children escaped, their husbands, fathers and brothers had died . Perhaps the women and children were hurt by the horse’s hooves while trying to escape in the panic? Chaser never talked about it though . This is what I heard from various people later on . ”

“Yeah . Chaser had to kill the people he was trying to save . Even if the women and children escaped, their husbands, fathers and brothers had died . Perhaps the women and children were hurt by the horse’s hooves while trying to escape in the panic? Chaser never talked about it though . This is what I heard from various people later on . ”

It might have been legitimate self-defence .

The tax collection may have been legitimate .

None of those things would have mattered to Chaser .

Individual ethics are ignored in an organisation because the benefit of the person at the top or the organisation itself will always be given priority .

Usually the latter .

Even if the person at the top has a good moral code there are many cases where this threatens the organisation so they have to throw them away .

The state will always sacrifice people for the good of the state .

A common story .

Is that a good or bad policy?

Whatever the case may be Chaser could obviously not bear it .

“That person lived proudly as a knight so for him, it was extra painful . ”

What would I do?

Would I follow orders or would I help the villagers?

It’s not a simple answer . Even a soldier who’s part of an unprovoked invasion would not easily betray his army .

Would I murder someone in silence?

Who knows .

I then realised something .

It’s a terrible thing to be near power .

What if I become a n.o.ble?

I don’t want such a thing .

I was aiming at becoming a n.o.ble .

I thought it would be possible if I made full use of my production capabilities .

I thought it would be possible if I made full use of my production capabilities .

I have no love for the aristocracy but I thought it was necessary so I could be with Patty, however, the thought of becoming a n.o.ble now fills me with hate .

I love Patty and that hasn’t changed but becoming a n.o.ble and being part of the national authority doesn’t sit well with me .

I feel bad for Patty but I can’t suppress this feeling .

Like Chaser could not be a knight I cannot be a n.o.ble .

“Here’s Chasers spear Almsan . ”

“Why don’t you keep it priest-sama . It’s too heavy for me to use . I am…… . . not strong enough to live with this spear . ”

I understand . It’s probably too cruel to leave the spear with her .

“I understand . What about Casey?”

“That is my duty as her mother . ”

“I see… . . do you want to hear about his final moments?”

I talk about Chaser’s death without any feeling . I explain his actions and last words .

After that, it is up to Almsan and Casey to judge the man named Chaser .

I talk to Patty while being shaken around by the horse .

I tell her everything from the beginning of the trip right up to Chasers death .

I left nothing out . I told her every minute detail .

“I love you Patty but I don’t want to become a n.o.ble . ”

“Un…… . . ”

“Sorry . ”

“I know that . It was probably impossible for Ippei to become a n.o.ble anyway . It’s impossible for me as well . That’s why I work as an adventurer . I can’t deal with all the showing off . ”

Patty’s smile pierces my heart .

“Do you want to fight against the country with 2 people?”


Patty’s smile pierces my heart .

“Do you want to fight against the country with 2 people?”

It’s scary how serious Patty sounds .

“That’s a little……… I shouldn’t expect unrealistic things even if I have the pa.s.sion . That way leads to unhappiness . ”

“I guess…… . . I know . I’ll step down as a n.o.ble . ”

“Is that even possible!?”

“It is . On the other hand, I have no doubt that the Cherryc.o.ke family will be demoted . ”

“That’s…… . . ”

“So what we will do is raise my family up to Duke and when I step down the Cherryc.o.kes will be demoted back down to viscount . It evens out and father won’t be too bothered . ”

“All right . I’ll think about it in that direction . ”

“Let’s be adventurers together Ippei . I want my freedom too . ”

“I see………”

I didn’t want to say that freedom doesn’t really exist .

“Someday lets take the magic train down south . It’s warm and there’s a town down there with a beautiful ocean view . ”

I doubt there’s freedom there but the suggestion is very nice .

“Honeymoon?”

“That’s a nice suggestion . Would we be free then?”

The winter sun sinks dying the dead tree’s red .

We reached out and grasped each other’s hand firmly .

Chapter 1 end .

(1) Yukibare means “clear weather after snowfall” and from what I can gather seasonal word are used in haiku a lot .
