Chapter 405.1: Irregular ②
“I, see………… So, that’s, the reason, you came, to me……” (?)
Nora-san is wearing a crimson vest and short black pants. Unlike when I met her the other day in the prison, she now has a sword hanging from her waist and upon hearing what I said, she holds her eyes as if she has a headache and says that.
Surrounded on either side by strong knights, I smile while kneeling.
It is easy to get to Nora-san’s place. I just summoned a Spider, told it my destination, and it took me there. As expected of the city system. The only miscalculation is that I was arrested as an assailant.
The building where Nora Code is based is incomparably larger in both width and height than the building where Ohii-sama is imprisoned. The place around me is surrounded by the same knights that I have seen in the prison, making the atmosphere very ominous. As soon as the Spider arrived, I was captured by the surrounding knights. Well, if you think about it rationally, it is only natural. If you suddenly go to meet Royalty in the outside world, you would probably get captured. I am lucky that I was brought to Nora-san’s place without being attacked.
Nora-san sits proudly on a huge steel throne with her legs crossed. When they brought me in, she looked at me as if I were a dung beetle. If I had never been looked at like a dung beetle before, even I would have been stunned.
Nora-san trembles when she hears my purpose and speaks in a high-pitched, threatening voice.
“You, and I, are not friends, okay? Know your place!” (Nora)
“Un, un, that’s right. But…… Out of all the people I know, Nora-san is the one who seems to know the most about the system, you know……” (Cry)
