In the midst of this gripping darkness, I sit at the horse that took to the nearest city. It was a large city that was quite developed because its has modern layout, and it was close to the residence of the Marquess Roml family. So, they keep the city maintenance in regular touch.
On this horse riding journey, I added a cape marking the symbol of the Marquess Roml family as my official identity which represented Marquess Roml directly.
Earl Timoti, Mio, Alice, and Alyssa accompanied my sudden night journey to nearest city who had the Guild Adventurer.
Because the situation was running like a ti bomb that would explode anyti, I had divided the tasks among several people at the Marquess Roml's residence.
To prevent the loss of life that would occur. I gave orders to Ciel, Sia, and Hana to make a protective amulet containing a mid-level shield magic formula assisted by my mother who had mastering the structure of the magic formula based on the notes of the magic book written directly by the Great Hero.
Princess Anastasia planned to join this small trip but I held her back because I asked her to monitor the movent of the stealth sli herd that was still hunting the Golden King Bear herd.
Connecting Princess Anastasia's consciousness into the Soul Ti communication network kept us connected at all tis.
"Lily, I have managed to draw an accurate map of the deepest maze of the cave where the stealth sli previously resided."
"Don't forget my reward for working so hard like this."
"You promised to go on a date with after all of this is over!"
Inside my mind I was connected to the Soul Ta network, I received a direct ssage from Princess Anastasia that entered my head loudly.
"I understand, Princess Anastasia. After all this is over and Marquess Roml's residence has been restored for ready to use, right?" I replied through the Soul Ta connection network inside my mind.
This secret conversation felt very efficient because it didn't require my lips to move to speak.
"I know, that's why I'll bring so of my Butlers and Maids to help. I will do that even if you tell not to, Lily!" Princess Anastasia shouted in my mind.
Booingg…
"V-Vice Commander! Bad news! There are bear monsters that can multiply their bodies to find us!"
Pooingg...
"This is bad because we don't know where that bear real body!"
Booingg...
"What should we do, Vice Commander?!"
Pooiinngg...
"T-This monster doesn't have a keen sense of sll, right? W-Will we be okay hiding like this, Vice Commander?"
"You guys calm down first and stay hidden to observe the situation. Don't make any movents that will attract the attention of the bear monster!" In my mind, Princess Anastasia seed to be sharing communication with the other stealth sli network until the communication between her and was suddenly cut off by the panic voice of the stealth sli in facing a new enemy.
Appointing Princess Anastasia as a Vice Commander seed to be the right decision.
The three stealth sli who shared their eyes perspectives were not an obstacle for Princess Anastasia in carrying out the silent attack strategy that I had previously carried out.
Leaving the leadership of the stealth sli herd to Princess Anastasia for a while had relieved my burden that had already felt heavy from carrying Marquess Roml's baton.
After I received the command baton of Marquess Roml, I will officially act according to Patriarch Marquess Roml himself.
This is a heavy responsibility and high burden.
Ugh, And this responsibility already makes my body ache with every decision that will happen and co out of my mouth.
"Lily-sama, we have arrived at the city border and soon the city gates will be visible," said Mio who spurred her horse next to my father's horse that I was riding.
"I know," with a small nod from , I imdiately spurred my father's horse to run faster until the city wall was visible.
Unlike in my childhood ti when I moved sneaking into the city on foot run, this ti I did the right thing in entering the city.
By spurring my father's horse to high speed, I managed to attract the attention of the soldiers who were on duty as guards at the city entrance gate.
"Stop! Reduce the speed of your horses!"
From a distance, I could hear the soldiers who were guarding the entrance gate trying to stop my father's horse which was running fast without feeling afraid.
Following the instinct of freedom from an animal that was used to roaming the battlefield with my father, the horse I rode did indeed look more confident when a sharp weapon was pointed at horse body.
"Earl Timoti, can you take care of this?" I said while trying hard to control the increasingly fast speed of my father's horse.
"I can take care of it, Lily-sama," Earl Timoti replied as he spurred his horse to step out of the line of my father's horses.
Alright, one troubleso problem has been resolved.
Now it's ti to create the next problem like... Advance my father's fearless horse and slowly charge at that lousy gatekeeper!
With a single touch of my foot that tapped the back of my father's horse, it seed to have figured out my destination with such a small touch.
"Kiiiikkk!!" The snort from the horse that was running energetically gave a boost of speed that surprised .
In such a fast-running condition, the horse that had been trained on the battlefield imdiately increased its running speed until it broke through my ears' tolerance for hearing sounds.
Kaabbaammm!!
As if using wind magic to throw objects into the air, a sound bomb occurred around the body of the horse I was riding.
"L-Lily-sama!!" I could faintly hear Mio's voice who was surprised by the speed of my father's horse.
I didn't expect that this horse that had grown older still had such incredible energy.
My vision began to blur after receiving the wind pressure caused by the horse's running speed.
The spear that was ready to pierce the horse's body didn't seem like a terrible threat to it.
When the distance between my father's horse and the city gate was getting closer, the horse suddenly stomped its feet to jump.
Baaammm...
A strong wind pressure was imdiately generated when the horse's feet jumped and crushed the ground. At a speed that was difficult to control, the horse suddenly jumped and carried my body through the thick city gate.
Kaaabaammm!!
When the horse I was riding jumped in the air, surprisingly its feet stepped on a strong wind that made its body fall quickly.
My body's instincts didn't feel any signs of danger from this, so I could feel that this horse was already too professional in doing this crazy action.
A small jerk from its feet had pushed the horse's body through the thick city wall.
Taaaakkk... Taaaakakaakaka....
After descending from a height and successfully passing through the thick city gate, the horse still had enough energy to run straight ahead without any signs of fatigue.
"Uhh, I know you're excited. But can you slow down your running speed once you're inside the city?"
"It would be embarrassing for your owner if you accidentally hit soone while running fast like this."
I tried to slow down the speed of the horse that was running fast because the Adventurer's Guild building was in sight.
The running movent of my father's horse that I was riding suddenly slowed down and adjusted to the safe speed limit in the city.
"Yup, good girl, I'll give you a carrot after I get ho," I said while stroking the obedient horse's hair.
When the horse I was riding arrived in front of the Adventurer's Guild building, I imdiately got off and ordered it to behave politely and not disturb public order.
"Wait like a good girl here!"
"Don't go wandering off to faraway places!"
"Then don't cause unnecessary trouble when I'm not around, understand?"
While getting off my father's horse was excited like this, I gave her so warnings and advice so that she wouldn't get too out of control when her head wasn't tied by the horse's reins.
"Kiiiikkk!!"
"Hiiikkk!!"
"Huurrttff!!"
I don't understand horse language, but I can see the happy expression of my father's horse which looks happy like this.
"Good! If there's sothing suspicious. then use your feet to attack!"
"Kiiiikkk!!"
Tommpphh… Tommpphh…
My father's horse imdiately stomped its hooves on the ground to answer my words.
With a light salute from my fingers, I gave her a greeting for serving as a good horse without being restrained by the reins on her head.
"Then I'll go into the Adventurer's Guild building first!" I quickly turned around to run into the Adventurer's Guild building.
The situation of this city with Marquess Roml's residence seed very different.
If Marquess Roml's residence had entered spring thanks to the intervention of Ciel and Sia's blessings, then this city was still in winter which made so civilians shiver with cold.
Braakkk!!
With a quick movent, I imdiately made the Adventurer's Guild building.
When I opened the main door, I could see several adventurers enjoying a warm soup as dinner approached midnight.
My sudden appearance seed to have attracted a few eyes, especially with my light brown skin and cape that showed the Marquess Roml family crest.
I imdiately walked towards one of the female staffs of the Adventurer's Guild and handed over three bags containing gold coins.
"I wish to make a Quest in the na of Marquess Roml!" while showing the command baton that showed my status was equal to Marquess Roml himself, the female staff of the Adventurer's Guild seed to stand still without words while waiting for information about the Quest I wanted to make.
"Ten gold coins for participating in the Golden King Bear hunt and one gold coin for each monster head from the Golden King Bear herd!" I said in a loud and clear tone.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"G-Golden King Bear? What kind of monster is that?" replied the female staff of the Adventurer's Guild.
Braaakkk!!
"Did you just say sothing about the Golden King Bear monster?!" said one of the female staff of the Adventurer's Guild who had just co out in a hurry from the innermost room.
"Y-You're not joking, are you?!" With words filled with disbelief, the female staff of the Adventurer's Guild stared at intently before her eyes fell on the command baton I was holding.
"M-Marquess Roml crest? Ah! I pay my respects to Marquess Roml!"
With her awkward behavior, the female staff of the Adventurer's Guild realized the seriousness of my words.
