The Great Sage Who Did not Remain in Legend - 38.3
“Is that so…”
“But you need to win at the swordsmanship competition, right?”
“Yes…”
“Since there’s no more time, practice mental training until the swordsmanship competition, that is, training to have the enhancement magic flow through your body. Also, during the match, you must restrain yourself and use it only in critical moments. If you enhance yourself unexpectedly, you might lose control and end up killing your opponent.”
“Understood.”
With that, today’s training ends, and they return to the royal capital before the gates close.
“I’m tired of walking and it’s cold. Mergin, carry me. Iris often carries people, doesn’t she?”
Vanessa, being demanding.
“Alright, I’ll carry you, but don’t make a fuss.”
“Eh, is that okay?”
As Mergin crouches down, Vanessa hops onto his back. Mergin bounces up and down in place.
“What are you doing?”
“Enjoying myself on your back.”
“Enjoying what?”
“Vanessa, Mergin is experiencing the feeling of your chest on his back…”
Cisco looks at Mergin with a look of disgust.
“What the hell are you doing, you pervert!”
“I told you not to make a fuss.”
Vanessa, saying she wanted to be let down, jumps off. With both wearing coats, it’s unlikely she could really feel anything…
“Mergin, do you always do this kind of sexual harassment to your comrades?”
Rose, looking exasperated at the scene.
“Vanessa is in charge of charm, so it’s fine.”
“Who’s in charge of charm?”
“No, Vanessa is the promiscuous one.”
“Yeah, I’m the promiscuous one… Hey, Cisco, you’re annoying.”
Cisco still seems to harbor resentment from being hit with rubber kunai.
Mergin then pays at the gate.
“Gatekeeper, I’d like to ask you something.”
Rose speaks to the gatekeeper who received the money.
“What is it?”
“I am this kind of person.”
Rose shows her noble ID.
“Th-That’s terribly rude. What question do you have?”
“This Mergin, though he is a foreigner, is a guest of the Baum family. Must he still pay the entrance fee every time?”
“Eh?”
“If it’s a rule, it can’t be helped, but what do you think?”
“No, I will refund today’s fee.”
The gatekeeper salutes and offers a refund.
“Rose, it’s fine not to get special treatment.”
“I understand, but Chii-niisama will come on the 5th, right? If he learns about this, the gatekeeper might face consequences.”
