With Maria-san’s permission, we went ahead and preceded to the location.

    Saira and Rin-chan are standing by in the principality’s capital.

    Till refused to attend.

    Maa, if that person acts seriously then even if there’s a little distance she’ll come soon so I suppose it’s fine.

    The plan this time is to take three days via galloping horse, today is just the day when we expected to arrive.

    By going at a forced march while stopping along the way at garrisons or the like every day and having our horses switched out, it was especially tiring.

    ……Though we were just riding you know!

    So, each time’s routine, if you won’t let me ride with you I won’t ride horse-san!

    Maybe, I should learn horse ridingー.

    「Oneechan, are you okay?」

    「Aah.」

    While looking up in her breast, I look at Shion-san’s face.

    From her expression it’s just as she said, I don’t see any fatigue.

    However, with Eclair and Aim as well everyone seems to be riding.

    Is this just me, or am I someplace’s princess-sama?

    I’ve become something like that haven’t I.

    Maa since staying in oneechan’s breast is exceptional, I don’t feel a need to especially hurriedly learn.

    That’s the problem.

    But Shion-san is also like that though, regarding Ilya also, while everyone’s tired there isn’t a person who would complain here is there.

    I do think it’s impressive, impressive that is.

    But, I think that when you’re tired you should say you’re tired.

    If no one says they’re tired after coming this far, in reverse it becomes difficult to say even after becoming tired doesn’t it?

    At this point……shouldn’t I put in some effort and help out?

    If someone doesn’t say this, won’t we fall into an uncuttable vicious cycle?

    ――Yosh!

    The one to become a sacrifice will be, me.

    If I won’t speak, who will speak!

    「Oneechan, haven’t you become tired?」

    「No, not particularly.」

    「……Just a little, tired out then?」

    「That’s probably not the case.」

    「Your butt, hurts doesn’t it?」

    「Since I’m used to this, that’s not the case you know.」

    …………I’m not done yet!

    「Ilya! You’re extremely, tired aren’t you!?」

    「No, if it’s that extent.」

    Calling out to Ilya as she ran beside me, the result is the same.

    How shy everyone is!

    They should let themselves out more!

    From the countenance of the people beside me asking them is no good!

    That’s it, no one will stop with Eclair running earnestly at front with no appearance of stopping.

    I’ll see culprit, stopped!

    「――Master, you’re making a good face.」

    With Aim riding lined up with me on Ilya’s other side, she called out to me.

    「Fufu, so you understand is it?」

    「Nn, I’m following.」

    Aim’s sleepy eye turned into one belonging to a hunter.

    「What should we do?」

    「It’s okay, since such a thing would happen I――have prepared carrots.」

    「――I see, for the unexpected.」

    「Yare yare……」

    Though I heard a sigh from behind me, it’s my imagination, imagination.

    Now――!

    「――Eclair, let’s take a break soon.」

    「Shion……I suppose then.」

    After Eclair called out to oneechan, she lowered her horse’s speed.

    「……」

    「……Master, don’t mind.」

    Looking up like I was resentful, Shion-san tousled and stroked my head.

    The three principalities had the kingdom as their center, looking at it from the north it’s set out like an inverted triangle.

    In the south Wilmington.

    In the west Austia.

    In the east Sacrament.

    The three principalities and the kingdom have their borders adjoined, each is grouped with one adjacent country.
