I Was Reincarnated As An Instructor In An R18 Game... - Chapter 122

While calming my breath, I looked around again to check if there was anything moving.

I searched the far distance but found nothing, letting out another sigh.

Next to me, Roy stood holding a longsword in one hand and was checking the surroundings.

He seemed to have not found any movement and exhaled deeply in relief.

“Reid-san!”

“Instructor, are you safe?!”

“You survived, huh?”

“If anything happened to the instructor, I wouldn’t be able to show my face to the proprietress…”

“I know, right…”

Foria and the others, who had headed to the castle gate earlier, came running worriedly alongside the gate guards.

Though exhausted, Roy and I smiled and gave a solid nod.

At the castle gate visible in the distance, I saw the soldiers spreading out, perhaps to check the area.

Seeing everyone approaching, I breathed out deeply, truly relieved.

I knew the faces of around fifteen individuals.

From what I saw, some were injured, but there didn’t seem to be any dead.

A miracle, truly a miracle.

Serving as the rear guard of the stampede, having no casualties is nothing short of a miracle.

I looked over everyone’s faces and smiled happily that they had survived.

“I’m glad you’re safe!”

“…This side of Reid-san is really sneaky.”

“That’s nothing new, though.”

“That’s right!”

“Your instructor is quite something!”

“I understand why the gate guards are laughing…”

I looked at everyone drenched in rain and Blue Slime liquid and couldn’t help but laugh.

Everyone looked puzzled at me, so I pointed to my clothes so they would understand.

Then everyone looked at their own muddy appearance and laughed just like I did.

When I turned my eyes to the side, Roy was looking at me with a tired face.

Puzzled, I tilted my head and asked.

“What’s wrong, Roy?”

“No… it’s nothing, Instructor.”

Roy smiled awkwardly at my words and shook his head.

Hmm? What’s really going on? Did you get hurt somewhere?

Worried by Roy’s behavior, I asked if he was hurt, and he cheerfully replied, “No.”

We started walking toward the castle gate along the road that was soaked in rain and Blue Slime liquid.

Just seeing everyone’s smiles makes me feel like coming here despite the danger was the right choice.

I’m happy I could protect not only Foria and Roy, but also the adventurers and gate soldiers.

As we approached the castle gate, I looked at a few people standing before it and my expression twisted.

I almost stopped walking, but somehow I managed to keep moving.

While looking at the gate, I murmured so Roy, walking beside me, could hear.

“I have an unpleasant feeling even more than from the stampede…”

“…Me too. I really don’t want to go closer…”

Felica, who was likely commanding the knights, stood firm with her arms crossed.

Even from afar, you could tell she had a frightening smile.

As I tried to slow my steps, someone shoved me from behind and forced me forward.

I turned to look behind, but no one was there, and Roy seemed equally puzzled.

Right behind Roy and me, I heard Sharle’s angry voice.

“Now, move your feet.”

“…Sharle?”

“Huh, who’s that…?”

“…One of those who is angry at our actions.”

“…I’m already afraid, you know?”

She pushed Roy and me hard from behind, and Sharle made no effort to hide her anger.

What’s worse, she occasionally laughs with that attitude, which makes her even scarier.

Because we were pushed from behind, we overtook everyone walking in front and ended up leading the line.

As Felica’s figure approached, I started to sense a frightening atmosphere from the front as well.

Looking closely, I saw from behind Felica’s waist that Lea was peeking out, laughing cheerfully and waving one hand.

Aaaahhhh, this is bad! This aura is even scarier than the one I felt from Erika the other day!

But it’s true that we caused worry, and running away is probably impossible because of Sharle.

Everyone behind us showed curious expressions at how we were walking at the front.

But then, perhaps spotting Felica standing in front of the castle gate, we heard giggles from behind us.

Roy and I, having been pushed to stand before Felica, spoke with awkward voices.

“Ah~ I’m back, Felica…”

“We’ve returned, sis…”

“Welcome back, both of you.”

A short silence followed, and with a troubled expression, I massaged the back of my neck with one hand.

Lea peeked from behind Felica and watched us with a grinning expression.

After passing us by, everyone leaned against the castle wall and rested while watching us.

With her large br3asts resting on her folded arms and that frightening smile still on her face, I exhaled and spoke to Felica.

“I’m sorry for making you worry.”

“…Indeed, both I and Reid had to take part in the battle. But rushing in alone is not something to be praised… understand?”

“Yeah…”

“Please, next time consult me. I understand that time was of the essence, and thanks to that Princess Alerias remained safe. So, I won’t say anything more.”

“I’m sorry, I ran off without thinking.”

“Good, I truly am glad you are safe.”

After giving a light scolding, Felica dispelled her frightening aura.

Indeed, I may have rushed too much, and in retrospect, there might have been another way.

I was trying to remain composed, but I don’t think I really was.

From now on, I’ll need to find words that will convince those around me.

Lea appeared from behind Felica, her black dress flowing as she approached.

Then she gave my stomach a strong smack, grinned, looked up, and said.

“Consider this your punishment from us, I’ll forgive you now.”

“…I’m sorry.”

“Hahaha, Reid, you’re really entertaining!”

At my words, Lea laughed joyfully, and I couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

I was worried by Roy’s lack of response, so I turned to see he was frozen, looking behind Felica.

Tilting my head, I followed his gaze and saw at the gate entrance Roy’s lovers wearing terrifying smiles like Felica’s.

Lucy stood with folded arms like Felica, while Shirin and Runen wore tearful expressions.

Felica placed one hand on Roy’s shoulder, pointed behind with her other hand, and said to Roy with a warm smile.

“Roy, that’s all from me… but the girls are waiting for you.”

“…Instructor.”

“I’m sorry, but this is one thing I can’t help you with, okay?”

Roy gazed into the distance, his mouth twitching, and he approached Lucy and the others with heavy footsteps.

I gave a wry smile at Roy’s state, then turned around and looked out over the plain.

Seeing Lea, I thought perhaps she had done something.

Noticing the Blue Slime liquid was dangerously close, I thought how dangerous it had been and patted my chest in relief.

Felica, standing next to me looking out over the plain, told me about the damage with a serious expression.

She said there were 25 casualties, many wounded, but none life-threatening.

Considering that in the original story the dead exceeded 100, the actual damage was kept low.

It seems Princess Alerias, Hilbide, and the royal guards have headed for the royal castle.

“Reid-sama!”

Startled by the voice behind me, I whipped around in surprise.

Felica beside me was also dumbfounded.

With her noble white dress fluttering and her waist-long blonde hair swaying, Princess Alerias came trotting over from the castle gate, her ample chest bouncing.

Immediately, Felica and I oriented ourselves toward Princess Alerias and dropped to one knee, pressing it into the ground.

Then, in a whisper so only Felica could hear, I asked.

“…Felica?”

“Well, that’s what I was told…”

“Truly… such a tomboy.”

“…Hm?”

With my head bowed and gaze on the ground, I couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Her appearance hadn’t changed at all since the time I rescued her, and it almost made me laugh.

I can picture the royal guards hurrying after Princess Alerias from behind.

I realized she had reached in front of me by her presence and the slight glimpse of her dress’s hem.

Princess Alerias took a steadying breath and then spoke to Felica and me in a clear, bright voice.

“Both of you, please lift your heads.”

“”Yes!””

“Please don’t be so formal. Lady Felica, your swift command was admirable.”

“Thank you very much!”

“Raid-sama, it’s been a while, hasn’t it?”

“…With all do respect, this is the first time we’ve met.”

Princess Alerias opened her eyes wide at my words, then squinted as though she were watching something entertaining.

Gracefully curling her fingers and placing them to her lips, Princess Alerias giggled and glanced behind her.

I suspiciously looked behind Princess Alerias and, inwardly, lowered my head and let out a quiet sigh.

I understand it’s disrespectful, but please forgive me.

Honestly, judging by her expression, Princess Alerias is probably doing this on purpose.

Walking up from behind Princess Alerias was Second Princess Letia Libertonia, her noble pink dress fluttering.

Like her older sister, she has shining blonde hair that reaches her waist, a chest smaller than a melon, and a slender body.

Since both of them have slender bodies, their chests appear even larger.

Though her calm exterior usually hides it, Princess Letia is just as much of a tomboy as her older sister.

It was probably Princess Letia who pulled her from inside the carriage at that time.

Arriving next to Princess Alerias, Princess Letia spoke cheerfully with a composed and lovely voice.

“This is the second time you have rescued us, Reid-sama, isn’t it?”

“The ones I… our unit saved were just a pair of sisters living nearby.”

“Fufu, since it’s territory of the Libertonia Kingdom, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it their backyard, would it?”

“Please don’t joke…”

Princess Letia smiled happily as she said that to me when I looked up, but I denied it with a serious expression.

Have mercy…

Because I get teased like this, I had hurriedly finished the mountain report.

Suddenly, the two looked up and glanced behind me and Felica, then started laughing as if they found something funny.

Watching them suspiciously, Princess Alerias gave orders to the approaching guards to clear the area.

Then from behind, Sharle spoke to the two princesses.

“Reid-sama needs to be punished.”

“To have angered Sharle this much, Fufu.”

“Fufufu, Sister, you’re wrong. The amazing thing is how much he is liked, kufu.”

A “kufu” laugh is really inappropriate coming from a princess.

More than that, Felica’s side-eye glare is really harsh.

I wonder if it’s just me, but recently it feels like my partners have been glaring at me like that alot…

Perhaps seeing Sharle, the two laughed for a moment, then calmed down before speaking to Felica and me.

“You must be tired now, and there’s post-battle business. We’ll be waiting for you at the castle another day.”

“Sister, you’re too gentle. Reid, Felica, come to the royal castle in five days. I command you in the name of Princess Letia.”

“”Understood!””

Satisfied with our responses, Princess Alerias and Princess Letia smiled and nodded.

Then, surrounded and guarded by the royal guards, they entered the capital.

As soon as the two left, a wave of fatigue hit me, and I let out a big sigh.

Using Princess Letia’s name to forcibly summon us to the castle, that’s just too tomboyish.

As I stood up and stretched my waist, someone grabbed my shoulder rather firmly, and I looked over in surprise.

Felica once again wore that scary smile, tilting her head as she looked at me.

I don’t know where Lea had been hiding, but she peeked out from behind Felica, laughing happily.

“R-e-i-d… Don’t you have something to explain to ‘us’?”

“Ahaha, ahahaha! Being with Reid is never boring and so much fun, huhahaha!”

Like Erika, I think I was looking off with a distant expression.

I let out a small, tired breath and nodded to Felica and Lea.
