Mezametara Chikashitsu!? ~Tensei Shoujo no Yume no Saki~ Chapter 24 Part1

After that, we departed towards the Dianes Republic.

I was bothered by the outside and looked out of the carriage, I saw Robert driving the carriage, and recalling the uncomfortable feeling I had when I first saw the carriage, I tilted my head.
Because I was accustomed to cars from my previous world, I completely forgot.

「U~n?」

「Is something the matter, Feli?」

「You see, the wagon in front is pulled by a horse, right? But, how is this carriage moving?」

「Eh? I wonder how?」

Because Al didn’t seem to understand too, we turned towards Lewis which made Evan angry.

「Why are you not looking at me, but at Lewis!」

「「…… Somehow?」」

Evan drops his shoulders when we answer, and Lewis answers our question while laughing.

「Fufu…… this carriage is special, you know? First, the coachman in front is holding a magic tool. Then, there’s a pair of magic tools installed in the center of this carriage, which are pulled with great care by the magic tool in front…… there are currently only a few of them」

「Hee~ that’s amazing」

「They didn’t have something like that when I lived in the human country」

「Oh…… Fearfal has lived in a human country?」

「I did, I was just killing time, though. That was…… about 300 years ago if I’m not mistaken」

「…… Is that so?」

While having such discussion, the town could be seen in the distance and Robert called out.

「Everyone, we will be arriving very soon」

When Al and I look outside, what we see is about ten stories high wall.
There’s a gate at the end of the road, and many people and carriages are lined up.

「Fue~ that’s so big…… it appears lining up will take up a long of time, Al」

「Really」

「You don’t have to worry. We are entering through the small gate on the right side」

Being told so by Evan, I look to the right and indeed see a smaller gate.

「We don’t have to line up?」

「That’s right. People of my standing enter through the small gate」

「Standing…… is Evan-san a great person?」

To my question, Evan opened his eyes wide and looked at Al.

「You haven’t told her!?」

「N?…… Yeah, I forgot. Feli, Evan is you see…… umm, he works at the royal castle」

「Hee~ So Evan-san is an amazing person, huh」

「Wait a moment, Fearfal! While that may not be wrong, wha――」

Evan who tried to plunge into Al’s answer was stopped by Lewis.

「There, there, Evan-sama…… Fearfal is considerate that Felice’s doesn’t get frightened off. Please, follow up on the story」

「Gu…… alright」

We seemed to arrive at the gate while talking as an unfamiliar voice reached my ears.

「h.e.l.lo! Please show me your identification papers!」

「h.e.l.lo. Yes, here are the papers」

「I will check it……… Confirmed. The wagon is loaded with merchandise, I see. The carriage in the back?」

「The ‘Guest’ is behind」

「I understand! Please, pa.s.s!」

Having the permission to enter, Robert moves the carriage.

「They don’t examine the inside?」

「The ‘Guest’ Malaika Company’s Robert spoke about is a signal that ‘I’ am inside, so there’s no need to check」

Evan said proudly, but he was instantly silenced by Al’s next words.

「Hee~ That must mean that Evan is coming in and out quite frequently, doesn’t it…… is it fine not to be working? You are an important person after all」

「Gu………」

Austin who saw the exchange laughed loudly.

「Ha ha ha! You’ve been had, Elder Brother」

「d.a.m.n……」

I look at Evan who was feeling bitter as he dropped his shoulders in discouragement because of Al’s words.

「What? Did I say something strange?」

「Unaware, huh…… Oh well, Fearfal, Felice, this is the first town of the Dianes Republic, Forsus. It’s just about time for lunch, but we will guide you to the capital where you will stay first, so is lunch good after that? Or――」

Evan has asked, but the two couldn’t understand him well, so they didn’t have an answer.

Lewis who noticed stopped Evan.

「Wait a moment Evan-sama. The two are not following you」

「N? Why?」

「Those words are not enough, you know…… seriously. You two must be surely thinking ‘Capital cities should generally be at the center of the country, but is the capital of this country close to the first town?’」

Though tired out by Evan, Lewis turned towards us and asked if that was what we were thinking.

「Yes」「Un」

「As I thought…… the capital of this country is also properly at the center. It takes ten days to get from this town to the capital by carriage」

「Then, why are we going to ‘have a lunch’ in the capital?」

Lewis gave an answer to my question in admiration in part 2.
