Chapter 410: Move to the Banquet Venue

In the end I, Elsa, Legere-san (the female knight with the lightening skill), and Dura-san ended up heading to the royal capital.

The 4 of us I, Elsa, Dura-san, Legere-san rode a log and lightened the whole with Legere-san’s skill.

And had Icrops throw us.

"Kyaaaaaaaaaa!"

Two behind Legere-san raised a scream.

Elsa behind me because has experience flying with the cock-copter did not raise a scream. However still seems scared and hugs me. A just-right-size breasts pressed to the back feels good.

Gouuuuuuuuuu!

On the way passed above the previous bus-carriage stop.

...Even now many male knights are probably sunk.

Asphyxiation damage and the recovery effect from capybara water are opposing and a state of neither healing nor dying.

If there is one with excellent recovery power will crawl up by oneself and pull up companions. Therefore fine and leave it.

"About to fall."

I shift the long robe and expose the breasts.

Kuuu. Wind pressure presses the breasts and seems to crush.

"Here we go! W-Nipple Cyclone!"

Gouuuuuuuuuu!

I release Wind-Pressure Masturbation wind from the left and right nipples and decelerate.

Before falling to the ground I jumped down and hugged the log from below and while running a little kill the momentum.

Alright. With this a safe landing success.

"Everyone. Arrived."

Because 2, 300 meters away from the royal capital I moved while shouldering the log.

After having everyone get down stuck the log into the ground.

If not taken by someone will use for the return too.

Parted with Legere-san in front of the castle. She reports the safety of the 91 female knights to the order and after that follows the order’s instructions.

In front of the castle gate there are herald officers who seem to be Gish’s subordinates and directing destinations to visitors.

The herald officers memorize all coats of arms in the country—and in some cases overseas too—and can identify the family and name of the owner.

Those who achieved good results in the tournament or high nobles have the banquet in the plaza inside the royal palace and other participants a drinking party in the courtyard inside the castle walls or such the venues seem to separate.

Now then. I became a woman and Dura-san cannot become Duran and do not have a coat of arms to show the herald officers.

Even the great-noble Elsa even though wearing somewhat expensive casual clothes—probably received from Ana—not a luxurious dress and does not have something with the family crest so cannot use noble power.

The purple scarf I received from Charlotte-denka is also not something that proves my status.

"Well shall we wait for an acquaintance to pass."

"That is so. Let us wait for big sister or Maria-sama to come."

"That is so."

Therefore we a little away from the castle gate became flowers by the wall.

I who tell myself the fully-naked long robe is a china dress, Elsa with a bit of a good-family young-lady feeling.

Dura-san a very ordinary medieval-town-girl style who stands a little away as if saying the 2’s attendants holding a basket with ice-cream ingredients.

Do not know who is attracting attention but quite a few passing men glance.

Unexpectedly feels good.

That guy not knowing I am a man is looking at the thighs...

Cannot be helped. Shall I service a little.

I raised the right foot a little—

"Masaharu-sama. Unladylike."

Was admonished by Elsa.

"Sorry. Just."

Well let me refrain. If molested it is painful.

For me thighs are familiar but for medieval men the stimulus is probably too strong.

In the big-subject medieval books medieval men selected marriage partners by looking at the thighs of women who tuck up skirts and wash in the river.

After a while Ana and others came.

Nono-chan who overlaps the usual chainmail with a red long robe in the lead. Holds a short spear in hand and on the raised coat-of-arms flag white ground with red flame and blue ground with white lily is drawn. Ana Lunametié’s personal coat of arms.

Next to Nono-chan the main of the group Ana wearing a red luxurious dress. Because wearing a wig and also hair ornaments is beautiful enough to lightly mistake.

Behind that Lulu-chan wearing the usual robe.

Beside that an unknown girl. Wearing the Red Iron long robe.

Then vice-captain Flora also wearing a dress so for an instant did not know who. Finally again an unknown child. Probably Flora’s attendant.

A total of 6 came.

Because confirming each other’s figures from a little away the joining was smooth.

"Big sister. Good evening."

"Elsa. Good evening. And Dura-san and... The beautiful young lady over there is first meeting?"

"Yes. Nice to meet you. Ana-sama."

Niko.

I float a quokka smile.

"...Even though Masaharu thought cute."

Ge. Found out.

"Oh. I am not Masaharu."

"Hard to believe at once but among my little sister’s acquaintances a human who wears only our order’s long robe on top of naked there is no other."

"I see. Happy for noticing immediately. If suddenly becoming a woman ordinarily would not notice right?"

"Obvious. I am also puzzled. No but..."

Ana’s gaze falls from the face to the chest.

"Mind? I am bigger."

"Hou. Victory declaration before entering the bed? Think a good match."

"Come to think of it in the end never fought Ana. Anytime will match."

"As desired."

And when Ana smiled unseemly and floated wildness on the expression—

"Big sister."

"Captain."

Elsa and Flora with somewhat low voices urged Ana to restrain.

"A joke. Now let us go to the banquet."

Yossha.

If there is the four-great-nobles young-lady knight-order-captain the castle gate is free pass.

Actually the herald officer at the castle gate just glanced at the coat-of-arms flag Nono-chan raised and let us through like face pass.

When passing under the castle gate in front is a wall.

Uun. Even though from the sky looking down a castle with wide site area suddenly having a wall has a sense of oppression. While feeling Dura-san teaches the answer.

’For defense reasons it is a T-junction.’

’Eh?’

’First the premise is the castle gate not being broken but suppose the enemy invaded inside.’

’Un.’

’Then the enemy must advance right or left along this wall. During that the castle’s defense force can pincer the invaders from inside or above the wall.’

’I see. While inducing the invasion path defeat in a narrow place. Haa. I thought if passing under the castle gate a wide courtyard spreads. In medieval-fantasy works’ castles there is a luxurious garden or suddenly a keep (the building the king lives in).’

’If the royal family’s living quarters here.’

’Eh?’

Dura-san skillfully pointed above with an in-brain message.

That is the upper floor of the tower beside the castle gate just passed under.

’Royalty in such an entrance?!’

’Yes. This side-defense tower is the place covered by the thickest wall and firm defense. The upper floors inside become wide rooms and will be decorated with luxurious furnishings.’

’I thought in the center of the castle there is a spacious space and there is a luxurious mansion and sleeping there...’

No but certainly so.

If saying where important people live make it the place with the highest defense power.

The image of a luxurious mansion probably comes from "mansions that look like combat fortresses" made after the early modern period.

That is just stylish. If a medieval castle should be more simple and sturdy and emphasizing defense.

The writer Conan Doyle has a strong image as a mystery novelist in Japan because the ’Sherlock Holmes’ series is famous but actually left many historical novels enough to be called a historical novelist.

Among them there is a work set in medieval France and vaguely remember when the protagonists several people were attacked by hundreds of enemies the place they finally fled into was a tower.

In other works set in the middle ages when a castle is attacked Japanese manga and anime have the king sitting on the throne in the hall waiting for the invaders but overseas movies have the image of barricading in the round room on the top floor of the tower and the escort knights pressing the door from inside.

Un. The more solid the historical accuracy the more royalty are in the tower.

Dura-san who is looking at my in-brain image adds a supplement.

’The scene of enemy soldiers invading the tower but the direction of the spiral staircase is reverse.’

’Eh?’

’All stairs of defense towers are made to climb clockwise. If an era when towers were built only for distant surveillance there are exceptions but stairs of towers aimed at defense are always clockwise.’

’Clockwise? Why?’

’Masaharu-sama is right-handed right?’

’Un. As clear from the cock being bent right I am right-handed.’

’Imagine becoming an invader. Hold a sword in the right hand and climb the spiral staircase clockwise.’

’Un.’

’A defense knight appeared. Now fight with the sword.’

’Ah! The wall gets in the way and hard to swing the sword!’

’Yes. Conversely imagine the scene of the defense side swinging the sword down from above.’

’Amazing. The defense side is easier to swing!’

’Did you understand. For such reasons defense towers have stairs clockwise.’

Amazing. Defense architecture was made with proper thought...!
