Volume 21

Chapter 1-Determination on the road

(TL:By Rafael)

"Aruna, are you all right?"(Cleo)

"Don't worry about it. We don't have time to wait for the medicine to be ready."(Aruna)

"But..."(Cleo)

"Don't say 'but'. We've come this far and now you want me to turn around?"(Aruna)

".................."(Cleo)

　

I, Aruna, and Lina were walking on the outskirts of the royal capital.

　

　The vast traces of magic power that Elio-san left behind. We took that as a clue and just kept going. Keane, Maki, and Marin are waiting for us in the royal capital.

　

　I wanted  to have someone who could move in the royal capital if we were late in getting back. That's what I was thinking at that time, but now I'm starting to feel uneasy.

　

　This was because of Aruna's presence.

　

　I had told him to stay, but he stubbornly refused to listen.

　

　With an injured body and a curse on is back, he couldn't push himself too hard. I told him about it, but Aruna was not convinced.

"I know it's selfish of me. But--"(Aruna)

　

　Yes, this problem.

　

　For him, it was.

"It's a matter of two houses, Clefus and Ledin, and I can't not travel. And  as it's a family affair, and it's my affair, too."(Aruna)

"Aruna, ......"(Cleo)

　

　I Know to him it means much more than just the house.

　

　An opponent who he had competed with in a previous confrontation and whose abilities he recognized - Erio-san. I knew that he was not the kind of person who could leave such a woman in pain alone.

　

　And even more so if he was related to the origin of that pain.

　

　Aruna may seem like a brash person, but he's really a kind-hearted person.

"Don't do anything rash, okay?"(Cleo)

"I know, I know. I'll do my best not to drag you down."(Aruna)

　So I couldn't say anything more.

　

　He smiled a little, as if he understood how I felt. Then he threw his gaze a little back.

　

　The one who was there was Lina.

　

　She was also one of those who were worried about Erio's safety.

　

　She walked with a nervous look on her face, clutching a hair ornament in her hand.

"Hey, little girl?"(Aruna)

"Yes, ah ...... yes."(Lina)

　

　Aruna called out to Lina.

　

　Surprised at being called out suddenly, Lina replied in a small voice. Then the boy knight smiled and said, 

"Don't worry. I'm sure Cleo and I will get that idiot to talk."(Aruna)

　

　It was as if he was concerned about Lina.

　

　With a mischievous smile on his face, he jokingly said, "!

"...... Yes!!"(Lina)

"You just have to trust and wait and then greet Erio with a smile."(Aruna)

"I understand. ......!"(Lina)

　

　At Aruna's words, Lina smiled nervously.

　

　Seeing the two of them, I thought to myself.

　

　Erio was never alone.

　

　There are definitely people here who are waiting for her.

"............"(Cleo)

　

　So I made up my mind again.

　

　I would rescue her.

　

　So that everyone can join hands with a smile on their face.

TL Note- At last the end of this arc seems near.....atleast the climax is near.
