(POV Saeko)
"Saeko-senpai... you really are strong"
"Fufufu, Rei-san is also quite good"
I and Rei were returning from the forest after we practiced a bit with our weapons. The truth is that I was a little disappointed about what happened a few weeks ago... I'm glad things didn't get complicated and nobody was hurt, but... it was a shame that I didn't have the opportunity to see how my improvement was against a person.
"I'm sure Alex-san will be happy to see how strong you have become, Rei-san. You can show him how skilled you have become with your spear when he returns. "
"E-eh? I-It's not like I did it for him! I-I just don't want to become a burden to others… "
"Fufufu, didn't you practice every afternoon so he can watch you before?"
"N-No! T-That pervert brat came on his own when I was doing it!! I-It is really a nuisance that he was seeing me all that time..."
My words were not just a praise, she really had lost her fear of fighting monsters with just her spear now. There was even an opportunity where she fought herself against a great Ogre who was the strongest monster in this forest and she easily could win against her enemy.
Although being honest, what surprises me the most is the choice of her weapon. Our group has firearms, and even though I don't like to use them, I understand very well how strong they are and so it is not difficult to think why the other girls opted for these weapons instead.
But unlike all of them, this girl had chosen a spear to fight and had been practicing with it for a while. So, several days ago, she asked me to let her join me and Scythe-chan in our training.
"Rei-san... why did you choose to fight with a spear?"
"Hmm? That's right… well, before, Alexander had told us that although firearms are very good at fighting our enemies now, in areas with stronger levels they would not be very helpful.
So I thought about starting to practice with other types of weapons before that happens… that boy doesn't seem to want to stay in an area of this level for long, so I don't want to be left behind either "
"Fufufu, I knew it, you really like being next to Alex-san too"
"I-It's not that!!"
This girl is quite interesting, the more she denies her feelings, the more you want to tease her. Now I understand why Saya-chan does this... on the other hand, it seems like she learned to not say things like "aren't you the one who wants that?!" or "what about you? You are the one who wants to be closer to that brat!".
That was because every time she asked questions like that when she was overcome with shame, the answer she got from the other girls was an affirmation… well, of all the girls here, she was probably the only one who denied that.
So it's normal for that to happen and so she gets these answers and then she get a big emotional hit because of this. In the end, since she doesn't know how to respond to that, she always left the place with a defeated face.
"Either way, it seems like I'm still a long way from being on the same level as senpai and Scythe."
Well... I have a lot of time dedicating myself to the sword after all. I don't want to brag, but I think it's not difficult for me to handle several ogres at once without much effort.
As for Scythe-chan ... she probably has no trouble fighting a hundred…...
Hmn?"
" ...What is it, Saeko-senpai? Oh, a vehicle is out of the wall... I wonder if a group of girls came from Barl? "
"I don't think is them... the vehicles they use are the ones we brought from our world, and this is one of those used in this world… "
"Could it be that Kurisu-san or Saya will be doing tests with the vehicles we took away from those who attacked us a few weeks ago?"
"I do not know. Let's go and see"
"Yes... I just hope it is not the last option and they are another group of people who also want to take this land... it has only been a few days since someone attacked us because of this!
If they attack us so repeatedly, then perhaps we really should consider leaving this place… it would be a bummer if people attack us every week to try to take it away from us!! "
With Rei's complaints, she, Scythe and I moved toward the entrance of our base. Due to everything that happened a week ago, like Rika-san, I thought that we would have a period of tranquility since not many would want to attack us after having made several organizations disappear.
But we may have underestimated the persistence of the people of this world too... but I don't think this is something as bad as Rei-san thinks, maybe this time I can test my skills against strong people.
""Saeko-sama, Rei-sama, Scythe-sama!
We are glad all three of you returned safely from your training! ""
Upon arriving at the gate of the wall, a couple of women who were trained by Leona-san and Rika-san receive us... these two seemed that had trained them with the military system, because they treat all the girls who are close to Alexander as their superiors... no, I think that in addition to respecting a superior. Well... I also feel that these girls seem to admire us for a total different reason.
"Thank you for your work watching over the place.
Has something out of the ordinary happened while we were gone? "
"Something out of the ordinary? Oh, it's true… some visitors came and now they should be talking to Rika-sama and the others. "
"I see ... thank you"
As soon as I said goodbye with a smile to these girls, the three of us go directly to where the Mansion was since that would probably be the place where Rika-san and the others were. Also, seeing the attitude of the girls, it does not seem that the people who arrived had bad intentions toward us...
A moment later, as I had thought, in what would be the garden in front of the mansion that was now almost completed, there were the other girls and I could also see some other people sitting at a table with them.
" Oh! The two of them were also together with Alexander when we met!"
As we approached and that group also noticed us, a small boy stood up and pointed at me and Scythe. As he says, we had met several of these people before... the guests the girls mentioned earlier were none other than the group of the little prince of Delna with whom Alex-san had befriended in the kingdom's capital.
"Pri-... Lorens-san, I'm glad to see you are okay"
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, Saeko-san. Our leader wanted to come to see Alexander-san, but it is a pity that he is not here at the moment"
… Although I, Kurisu, and Alex-san knew the identity of this little boy, since he seemed to want to hide it, then all of us played along and treat him as the leader Rulnemt-san's guild, who tells me the reason for what they came here.
It seems that this little prince actually grow attached very much to Alex-san in the short time that we were in the capital...
"I'm sorry, but Alexander had to go out for some things... although since it has been more than a month since then, it will probably not take long for him to return"
"I understand... then, we will wait for him here until he returns!"
"L- Leader... you shouldn't bother others by deciding things on your own"
"Eh? Is there a problem?"
"..."
"Saeko-senpai... who is this bra-hmmm~"
"N-No problem, Lorens-san! You all let us stay in your guild the previous time, Palmir-san, so it will be a pleasure to do so as well.
But, it is just that…"
When Rei was about to say something disrespectful to the prince, Kurisu quickly gets up and covers her mouth and prevent her from continuing. It seems that she is quite nervous... well, the other party is the prince of this whole kingdom, so I think it is normal that she does not want this little one to get upset.
Also, it seems that she was able to tell who these people were to the other girls before since everyone here try to act politely... those who cannot do this like Leona-san and Vrana-chan, were probably sent to do something else since they are not here.
"It's good that S-Shisuka is not here and returned to Barl with Lena-san... she really does not seem to think things to much, and if she saw this little boy she would hug him without thinking twice... "
"I-I could hear some rumors about the princess in the capital... so that would have been really troublesome."
I can certainly imagine what Rika-san is saying happening… plus, I also heard those rumors Kurisu-san talks about. It seems the princess is quite jealous when it comes the prince... but as long as she doesn't find out, then I think there shouldn't be a problem if Shisuka-sensei hugged him.
"Can't I stay here and wait for Alexander?"
"Lorens, you shouldn't impose your wishes on other people! I apologize for the inconvenience my little brother has caused"
L-Little brother? So does that mean this girl is the princess? I was wondering who these two girls that I didn't know were... then this explains why Kurisu is more nervous than normal.
"No, we don't have a problem with that! It's just that the mansion is barely being built and I don't know if it's good for someone to stay there... not to mention if they are such important people. "
"Saya, do you think there are rooms that can be used?"
Until now we have been living in the vehicle that Alex-san bought before, and the other girls sleep in another building that was built faster since it was simpler. But like the others must be thinking, I don't think any of those places are suitable for the royal family to rest...
"Ummm... Klen- san, if I'm not mistaken there should be some rooms that can be used now, right?"
"It's like Saya-san says, there shouldn't be a problem. The work of our guild is almost finished and there are only a few small details left to finish. So I don't think there will be a problem for people to stay there"
After Kurisu sets her eyes on Rika-san for help, she moves the matter over to Saya who in turn asks the person in charge of directing the construction of the mansion that we previously hired and was also here for some reason.
"… It really seems that your organization is quite responsible. Come to think of it, even while we were fighting you guys continued your work as if that had nothing to do with you… and you didn't even try to help. "
"Well, that's the truth, that had nothing to do with us. But you can rest easy Saya-san, since we have received all the payment for the construction of this place, then we will make sure to deliver it in the indicated time! "
"... I really hope that you have not had anything to do with the people from before, otherwise, Alexander-san will surely get angry and carry out what he told you previously"
"O-Of course we had nothing to do with it!"
... I don't know if I should call this person a professional because of his attitude, or someone indifferent. Well, I can't deny what he says about his job is not protecting this place. Also, I don't think they have anything to do with what happened before either… those responsible for that are probably the adventurers who have lately used the surroundings of this place as a rest area for their raids into this forest.
"Well, as you can see, this place is still under construction. So if you don't have any discomfort because of that, then we would like you to stay here."
"Fufufu, I see, you have my gratitude. We are also adventurers, so there is no problem! "
"Great!! I will be able to go to the forest and kill some monsters there!! "
"I-I knew the leader's objective was something like that..."
We all reply to their words with a bitter smile. It seems that the princess's attitude is not very different from that of her brother... she may also be quite naive. Although there is also the possibility that she only tries to keep the identity of the prince secret as he wants...
"K-Kurisu-san... doesn't this girl seem to be too naive? I-If so, then it may be a problem when she meets Alexander-san! "
"Th-That is true... also it seemed that Alex was quite interested in the princess..."
I think if Rei could speak, then she would say that this girl would be eaten by Alex-san without her realizing... speaking of that, I think I should tell Kurisu that it is time for her to release Rei or she will faint for the lack of air.
Although, I think this girl is only kind to us because we are acquainted with her little brother... the aura around this woman is the same as the prince's guards. Also, the other girl next to her seems to be quite strong too… I wonder if they would agree to have a spar with me?
"Rika-sama!! M-More people came too… "
"...More people? Will they be other acquaintances of Alexander? "
Suddenly this conversation stops because one of the women on watch duty comes and reports that, so we all immediately head to the entrance.
"K-Kurisu-san... did you wanted to kill me?!"
"I-I'm sorry... I was nervous and forgot what I was doing..."
While Rei complained to Kurisu, we got to the door and there, the first thing we see are more acquaintances.
"So you have also come..."
"Rika~ I have come to play~!"
"Hihihi, Shisuka, we didn't come to play. It looks like you guys are having trouble again. "
The people we met there were Shisuka-sensei and Lena-san who came in a vehicle of the group of girls that stayed in Barl to take over some work.
Although, surely they were not the people referred by the previous woman who went to report. In front of the wall, there were also a little more than a hundred people who must have come in the various vehicles that were there...
"Whaa~ I think I should have kept quiet before... I raised a flag with my previous words!"
"M-Maybe these people aren't coming looking for trouble this time... we don't know yet"
"Haa~ No, I think it is very likely that they did not come with good intentions...I thought it would be long until other people came here, but it seems that I was wrong"
"Hihihi, well, this place is quite good... so while your group still doesn't have a name that resonates throughout this kingdom, in the meantime you will have to defend it from different people.
Also… it seems like you have some people with you who seem to be pretty good this time. If this is so, then I don't think I needed to come this time to make sure nothing will happen to you all… "
Seeing the people who were beginning to organize, Rei-san, Kurisu-san, Rika-san, and Lena-san start to argue among themselves.
"The dame is right… this place is quite good. I don't know many level 10 zones within the kingdom after all."
"They are guests, Lena-san. So it's not good to involve them in this. "
"Do not worry! If there is something we can do, then we will also help you"
"My sister is right! Alexander's enemies are also my enemies!!"
"Thanks... but first we must see what these people want"
After Rika-san thanked the prince's group for offering to help, we all waited to see what these people wanted. The truth was that they were a much smaller group than the previous one we fought with, so this time the others didn't feel very uncomfortable about it.
Then we don't have to wait long and soon after they seeing us, a small group approaches to us who where on the wall.
