Isekai Tensei Harem Chapter 63.1

Chapter 63 – Patrol and Harvest Festival – Part 1

We leave the headquarters and start patrolling around the capital.

Although I say patrol around the capital, it’s mainly keeping eyes on the surroundings of the main street.
Capital is fundamentally peaceful.

Although I heard that the public order got worse and there was the accident with the Magic Gem Soldier, it’s not like such accidents happen frequently.

The city has returned back to normal.
It’s lively and peaceful city as usual.

「h.e.l.lo, Ramida obaasan. How is your cold?」

Claire sometimes greets people when pa.s.sing them.
Like a good-natured policewoman rather than a knight.

「Ara, Claire-chan. I got much better thanks to the medicine you sent me」

「I’m glad. Please take care of yourself」

Claire smiles.
A smile that feels like a gentle granddaughter who is worried about her grandmother.

「Thank you very much for your hard work. Ah, that lovely girl is also a knight, isn’t she?」

「Nice to meet you. I’m Racine desu」

Racine greets and bows towards the obaasan.

「Oya oya, thank you for your politeness. So, that man is an attendant then?」

No, I’m a coworker though!?
Rather, am I not wearing the same knight outfit?

「…… Abel desu」

「Babel huh, best regards」

「No, it’s Abel though……」

「Ah, was it Abir-kun, I’m sorry」

「Therefore, I’m telling you it’s Abel」

「Ae…… face-kun?」

You are definitely doing it on purpose aren’t you, obaasan!?

「Maa, well. Work hard not to pull Claire-chan down」

「Wa, haa」

「Also, no matter how beautiful Claire-chan is, you must not do something wrong, okay? I won’t let you touch my pretty Claire-chan for as long as I’m alive」

「Wa, haa……」

I can’t say anything, but haa.

「Obaasan, he is also my coworker」

Claire helps me out with a smile.

「Hee, so this child is also a knight?」

Ramida obaasan’s eyebrows twitch.

「Although Claire-chan is such excellent knight, he doesn’t look like much. A swordsman aura? character? I can’t feel anything like that from him」

That’s because I’m a magician.
Although my social position is that of a knight, I’m not someone who would kamikaze with a sword in hand.

「Abel is extremely reliable magician. He is also someone who saved my life」

「That’s right~ He defeated the monsters in Rashuka City on his own, and also defeated the Empire’s mysterious person who appeared in the Capital a while ago」

Racine follows up Claire’s words.

Thanks both of you.
As expected of my companions.

「…… Fumu, if you two say so」

Obaasan mutters and turns towards me,

「I knew you were a splendid knight-sama at first glance. It’s rea.s.suring to have someone like you around Claire-chan」

A sudden 180 degree change in evaluation!?
Maa, I’m being praised so, all good……

 

We advance further.
We enter the shopping area through the main street.

「Claire-chan, thank you as always. Have an apple」

「Thank you very much, Mare obaasan」

Claire receives an apple from the greengrocer obaasan.

「Claire Oneechan, you are beautiful as always~」

A small girl playing with her mother on the roadside waves at Claire.

「Fufu, thank you, Rina-chan」

「Claire-san is on patrol today? Thank you for your hard work」

The female merchant smiles at Claire.

「I will do my best」

「…… Somehow, you are really popular. Claire」

I half mutter in amazement.

「Chivalrous and beautiful. Even I who is a woman is attracted~」

Racine stares at Claire absentmindedly.

But, I feel like the people here like her not only because of her outer appearance, but also because of her inner beauty.
How should I say this, it seems that everyone’s atmosphere warms up when being in contact with Claire.
Just like they would towards a family member──

「S, stop it, both of you」

Claire says in embarra.s.sment.

「It’s because I lodged around here when I was in the Knight School. Everyone is my acquiantance」

「That’s how I know a lot of people」

「There are many old-fas.h.i.+on, good-natured people around here. I love the people of this city almost the same as everyone back in the village」

Claire nods with a smile.

「Therefore──when the Empire attacks, I will absolutely protect them. With my own hands」

Her expression becomes full of determination.

「It’s for that purpose I keep training with my sword every day. I will become stronger──and drive away every single Empire’s magician. If the plan to injure the people here, I will fight them. I will protect this city──」

How admirable, Claire.

Although I entered the Knight Order only because I wanted to become successful in life.
Claire has decided on her goal since she was small.
And her goal is now coming true thanks to the Knight Order.

Wonderful, I think frankly.

Claire walks straight down the road determinedly in order to achieve her goal.
