I, Asuna, don't want to travel around the world

Thus, a scene like this appeared in the royal capital.

A maid from an unknown noble family was walking through the streets, as if she was looking for something.

But there were no other maids or butlers around her. Instead, she was alone, constantly shuttling between darkness and light, which looked very strange.

This makes people wonder: Could it be that this maid has lost the person she serves?

Not long after, the news reached the ears of a very helpful Three Good Knights.

"Really? I understand." A red-haired swordsman smiled and thanked the passerby. He looked around first, and then as if he had found his target, a hearty smile appeared on his face, and he walked towards somewhere.

As the son of the world, he is not someone who lacks protection.

It is not impossible for him to make his dreams come true to a certain extent.

After a while, Reinhardt saw the maid girl rushing out of the alley.

The girl stood under the street light and looked around. When she didn't see the figure she wanted to see, she took another step forward.

However, the next moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"...Master Sword Saint?!"

"I remember you were the maid who followed Lady Emilia." Reinhard asked, "What happened?"

The pink-haired girl hesitated for a moment before stating her current problem.

"Lady Emilia is missing?" Reinhardt's expression turned serious upon hearing this. "Leave this matter to me!"

"Thank you for your help, Lord Reinhardt." The girl bowed slightly, her heart finally at ease.

but……

"This is a huge dereliction of duty."

30: Reinhard: This smile... seems familiar?

"Found it." Reinhardt quickly locked onto Emilia's location with the help of his own protection ability. "But why would Lady Emilia go to the slums?"

"Slums?!"

"Yes, that's right, let's go." Reinhardt suddenly squatted down and said, "Excuse me."

After saying that, he picked up the pink-haired girl beside him by the waist.

"Eh?"

Amid the girl's exclamation, the two of them disappeared from the spot in an instant.

"As expected of you, Master Sword Saint."

"This speed... is really amazing!"

The people around also exclaimed in surprise at the right time, and then quickly dispersed.

Although I don’t know what kind of trouble the petite maid has encountered, as long as Reinhard takes action, there will be no problem.

This is the consensus of everyone in the royal capital.

After all, he is the legendary swordsman - Reinhard.

……

……

One minute.

There is probably less than a minute left in the crowdfunding group number 456127940.

When Reinhard put the girl down in his arms, Ram had not yet come to his senses.

Even though he was in the bustling royal capital before.

How come suddenly, in just a blink of an eye, I appeared here...

A place full of run-down houses?

Eh?

The environment here?

So, I have come to the slums...

Ram looked up at the man in front of him.

Is this the strength of a sword saint... He doesn't look tired at all, as if he is taking a leisurely stroll in the garden after dinner.

If he wanted to, even if he traveled all over the kingdom, it probably wouldn't take him more than a week.

"Sorry, I was a little anxious." Reinhardt's apologetic voice came from her ear, bringing the girl back to her senses.

"No, it should be Ram who should thank you." The pink-haired girl said seriously, "If it weren't for you, Ram would probably not have been able to find Lady Emilia until now."

After saying that, the girl turned her gaze towards the grove not far away.

There seemed to be a battle there, with a faint smell of blood coming from it.

"Don't worry, Lady Emilia is fine."

Reinhardt said affirmatively.

After all, in his perception, the auras of Asuna and Emilia were not weakened at all.

On the contrary, the other person in the room did not look very well.

"Go over there."

“Yes, Master Reinhardt.”

……

……

Inside the stolen goods vault, Emilia and Felt have reached an agreement.

Emilia will no longer pursue the matter of Felt stealing her badge.

In return, Firut must ensure that this matter will not spread out of her mouth.

After all, as a member of the gang, Emilia had her membership credentials stolen on the street. If this matter were to spread, it would be a complete scandal and a huge failure for her.

It is even possible that Emilia will lose the right to participate in the competition.

How can a guy who can't even keep an item safe protect our country?

Such ridicule would probably spread throughout the kingdom in an instant.

After all, not everyone is like Roswaal, willing to support a half-elf ascending the throne.

In this world, half-elves are not welcome.

With Asuna's mediation, Emilia and Felt were able to reconcile.

However, just as Firut turned to get the medal she had hidden, there was a sudden knock on the door of the stolen goods vault.

"Looks like someone's here to pick you up, Emilia."

"Eh? Pick me up... Wait! What time is this..."

Emilia was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly remembered that she seemed to have forgotten a certain girl in her residence in the royal capital because of the medal incident.

Visible panic appeared on that pretty face, like a child who had done something wrong and was caught by his parents, which made people couldn't help but smile.

"Lady Emilia, are you in there?"

Words of affirmation came from outside the door.

Emilia: “…”

Asuna couldn't help but snicker.

“I’m sorry, Ram, I… Reinhard, why are you here too?!”

open the door.

Emilia apologized to Ram a little embarrassedly.

But he was interrupted halfway through his words because he discovered the presence of a certain sword master.

Reinhard just smiled faintly, and Ram sighed softly: "Thanks to Lord Reinhard, Ram was able to find you, Lady Emilia, so quickly."

"Well……"

"Sorry for causing you trouble."

"No, it's alright, Lady Emilia, but Ram hopes that if something like this happens again in the future, please send someone to inform Ram."

Ram finally let go of the worry in his heart. He knew Emilia's character and knew that she didn't mean it. However, appropriate warnings... should be useful, right?

"Okay, I got it. I will definitely let someone inform you next time, Ram!" Emilia nodded seriously, clenching her fists, looking... as if she was cheering herself up?

Seeing her like that, Ram seemed to see the future again, where he would be running around because he lost Emilia...

Seeing the master and servant in front of him finish their conversation, a certain sword master finally spoke:

"I don't know what trouble you encountered, Lady Emilia, but judging from the situation now, it should have been resolved."

Reinhard smiled and nodded to the two people who were watching the show inside the house.

Asuna didn't react, but Rom-san seemed to be frightened. He quickly sat up straight and responded to the Sword Saint's smile with a simple smile.

“Uh…” The smile on Reinhardt’s face froze.

This old man’s smile…why does it seem like I’ve seen it somewhere before?

"Well...it's been resolved." Emilia's tone sounded a little guilty.

Reinhardt, who was puzzled by that familiar smile, did not think deeply about it.

If it's not solved, then Reinhard doesn't mind helping a **person out with the trouble.

But now that the matter has been resolved and the other party does not want to talk about it in detail, there is no need for me to delve into it further.

On the contrary, Ram couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw Emilia's guilty look.

"With Lady Emilia's personality, can she really win the throne from those people?"

Even with the help of my master... given Lady Emilia's personality, it would probably be difficult to win.

But there is no other way. Since they have chosen to help Emilia, they can only go down this path.

"Come in and sit down?" Asuna invited.

"excuse me."

Reinhard and Ram said.

then……

"Haha! Found it!" Feruto ran out of the house covered in dust and dirt, "I knew long ago that the woman was not a good person, and she hid the medal very well!

Look, it’s intact!”

In the palm of the girl's hand, a medal inlaid with a shining ruby ​​was lying there quietly.

"However, since it is a very important item, you must hide it well this time and don't let anyone steal it~!"

31 Reinhard: Come with me!

At the side, Reinhard, who originally had a faint smile on his face, suddenly stood up and grabbed Firut's wrist.

Looking at the medal in front of him, Reinhardt was shocked: "How could it be..."

Asuna glanced in surprise at Reinhard and the girl who was about to explode.

To be able to make the kingdom's foremost swordsman show such an expression... obviously, there is some kind of secret here.

“Hey!” Felt’s expression suddenly turned hostile: “What are you doing?! It hurts! Let go!”

Although he knew that the other party's identity and strength were far beyond what he could resist, Firut didn't care.

Although I did do some shameful things before, you have no evidence to arrest me!

Although he now wanted to return the stolen items to the original owner, the other party also agreed to forgive him.
