“…..”
Shouldn’t you tell me this a little sooner?
What am I supposed to do now that you’re telling me she’s Queen Brynhildr?
Still, the good thing is that she’s not a dragon, which I was worried about.
Seryu frowned and scratched his head.
“A queen, a queen…”
“That’s right, I am the queen. But who are you? I can’t figure out your identity at all. You look impudent, but looking at the charisma flowing from your body, you seem to be a noble. But there’s no insignia symbolizing nobility anywhere…I thought you were a magician, but you’re quite a strong swordsman. I don’t know. I ask. Who are you and where are you from?”
“A loser asking a question back to the winner. You’re quite bold, huh? Queen. Who do you think I am?”
I was curious what kind of answer would come.
“I’m sorry, but no one I can think of resembles you. Unfortunately.”
“Hmm…”
“Besides, are you going to keep me tied up like this even though you know my identity? That’s something you shouldn’t do to a lady. Not only are you stupid, but you’re also rude.”
It was just a few words, but my head throbbed for a moment. I clenched my fist and flicked Brynhildr’s head hard, who called herself “I.”
It’s a force that can break even rocks, so even though I hit her carefully, a clear ringing sound echoed.
Brynhildr, unable to understand what had just happened, lowered her head and trembled.
“Uuuh!”
And she lifted her head, perhaps because it hurt quite a bit, her blue eyes were filled with tears.
“Y-you rude man! I am the queen of Eisenstein! How dare you hit me! How dare you hit me!”
It’s pitiful to see her fidgeting her arms as if she wants to touch the spot where she was hit.
Seryu looked down at Brynhildr for a moment and then released the magic.
We didn’t talk much, but I was confident that I could subdue her if she attacked again.
But I won’t let her go this easily then.
As soon as the magic that bound her body was released, Brynhildr rubbed the head that was flicked.
“Ooh, it hurts! It hurts!”
“Stay put, or I’ll hit you again.”
“Ha! I don’t have the slightest intention of being hit by a rude man anymore! How dare you hit me! You will be punished by heaven!”
It was close to whining, so Seryu just chuckled.
“There’s no one who can punish me. Whether you’re a queen or whatever, you’re the one who’s being rude. You should be grateful that I spared your life even though you attacked first. Just be grateful that I didn’t kill you.”
“You don’t have to be so harsh, do you?”
Kvasir, who had been quietly standing behind, approached with a laugh.
Brynhildr frowned slightly, scanned Kvasir from head to toe, and tilted her head.
“…And who are you?”
“Nice to meet you, Your Majesty of Eisenstein. I am Kvasir.”
Kvasir? She repeated the name.
Brynhildr, who was muttering with a frown, Kvasir, Kvasir-, her face brightened as if she remembered.
“Oh – you were the sage who monopolized the love of the gods. Then I shall ask you. Who is this?”
“Are you curious?”
“Indeed! How dare he impudently hit me, whom no one has ever hit! I cannot forgive this! But…if he reveals his name, I have a mind to personally forgive him.”
How many times is she going to bring up being flicked once, Seryu felt a little tired.
Kvasir glanced at Seryu and approached Brynhildr a little closer, perhaps thinking it was okay to tell her.
“He’s a man with a unique name, ‘Seryu’. He’s a man of many secrets.”
“Hmm…then why are you two here? This is the orcs’ territory. If you’re going to Nibelungen, you should go east from here.”
“We came here to find out why the orcs came down south. A huge number of orcs left the forest, and several castles were almost captured.”
“Ugh!”
Brynhildr flinched, frowning at Kvasir’s words.
“I roughly understand what happened. At first, I wasn’t sure because it was just a rumor. As soon as Your Majesty unified Eisenstein, you crossed over to the western forest to go to the continent. The suspicious spear unit that was witnessed in the western forest, it’s Your Majesty’s direct unit, right?”
“…..Indeed. You’re not called a sage for nothing. I won’t lie, so I’ll admit it. That spear unit is my ‘Silver Spear Unit’, and we have come to pioneer this land.”
Brynhildr, after finishing her words, looked at Seryu’s reaction.
Saying that she will conquer the land is a dangerous meaning. Because it means that the maritime nation is showing its intention to advance inland.
Therefore, she prepared to create a spear immediately if she saw any suspicious signs.
However, unlike what she thought, Seryu didn’t seem to mind, he tilted his head once and nodded.
“A maritime nation is thinking of advancing inland, that’s surprising. Are you planning to pioneer this side, considering the possibility of being attacked by several countries if you go straight to the countries? You’re an excellent queen, huh?”
“Of course! In the history of Eisenstein, I am the only one who has unified it in a short period of time and taken powerful military power into my hands.”
“But where did you leave those powerful soldiers?”
“Hmm, I don’t know that either. When I came to my senses, my subordinates were nowhere to be seen.”
“You lost your way.”
“Who are you talking about? Me? Or my subordinates?”
Of course, it’s you, who else would I be talking about?
When I looked at Brynhildr with a pathetic expression, she flinched.
And she started to deny it.
“N-no! I didn’t get lost! It’s those stupid subordinates who got lost!”
It’s easy to get lost in the forest.
Since there are trees all around, if you don’t remember the way for a moment, you lose your sense of direction and get lost.
Furthermore, this forest is the orcs’ territory, so it’s a dangerous place, but the reason she was safe was because she could continuously create spears and had strong martial arts skills.
The unfortunate thing is that she met Seryu. If Seryu had played the game with malicious intent, he would have raped her as soon as he met and subdued her.
She was wearing nothing but underwear and black knee-high socks that tightly wrapped around her thighs, as if to seduce the opponent, so it wouldn’t be strange to jump at her and rape her right away.
“Are you listening to me?”
“Yes, it’s your subordinates who got lost, not you.”
“That’s right! Exactly! It seems like you finally understand. You’re not a fool.”
She showed on her face that she was worried that he might not understand because he was a fool.
Bear with it, I drew the word for patience in my mind. They say that three times of patience avoids murder, but my anger didn’t subside.
“Hoo. Then you should go find your subordinates?”
“Isn’t it late today? It’s not too late to find them tomorrow after resting here for a day.”
“Is that so? Then…I’ll help you.”
At Seryu’s words, Brynhildr’s eyes widened.
When she looked at him with a look that said, “Really?”, he nodded.
Brynhildr smiled brightly.
“I won’t refuse your favor. Alright. Then, let’s prepare a place to rest!”
“No, I’ll catch some game, so rest here. Kvasir, light a fire.”
Seryu left to find game in the forest as he had always done.
Since he had the blessing of the gods, even if darkness fell on the forest, there was no problem.
Seryu, who returned after quickly catching a deer, skillfully skinned it, cut the meat, and started cooking.
Since he had all kinds of spices, vegetables, and cooking tools in his inventory, he could make delicious food as if he was eating at a restaurant.
He transferred the golden brown roasted venison to a plate.
And he took out spices from his pocket, sprinkled them on the meat on the plate, and handed them to Brynhildr and Kvasir.
“Hoo~! Hoo~!”
Perhaps because the meat looked quite hot, she blew on it to cool it down and ate it, and Seryu also ate it deliciously. After a simple dinner, they spent the night.
Nothing special happened.
When the day dawned, Seryu opened his eyes.
The blanket, which was warm and comfortable while I was covering myself with it all night, felt very uncomfortable after waking up.
I got up groggily, and saw Brynhildr leaning against a tree over there.
She was holding a cone-shaped spear in her right hand.
“Hmm? You’re up now? You went to bed early, but you’re getting up quite late.”
“It’s none of your business whether I sleep late or not… Besides, aren’t you embarrassed by those clothes? Of course, I’m enjoying the view and I’m grateful, but still.”
“Hmph.”
Brynhildr looked at her lower body at Seryu’s gaze.
Black knee socks tightening her smooth thighs without muscles. And above them, her white thighs are exposed.
Not only her thighs, but since she wasn’t wearing any lower garments, her black underwear was also visible.
It could be considered quite lewd attire, so it was natural for Seryu to ask if she wasn’t embarrassed.
But Brynhildr wasn’t embarrassed at all. Rather, she was confident.
“Embarrassed? I’m not embarrassed to show myself, but I seduce by showing myself.”
“What?”
“You may look! You may fall for me, I’ll acknowledge you if you do. Be happy, there’s no one who can look at my panties so boldly.”
To actually see her panties and white thighs tightened by knee socks, you had to look from the front.
Since the top she’s wearing is long like a coat, to see her buttocks and panties from behind, you had to at least do something like an ice cream.
But since she is in the position of queen, who would dare do something like lifting her skirt to see her buttocks?
You’d be executed immediately. But to look from the front, that’s like asking her to kill you, so all you can do is glance.
No one has ever looked at Brynhildr’s panties and thighs so boldly from the front like Seryu is now.
Even if there were, they are all dead under her spears and no longer exist in this world.
“What are you going to do if they all decide to jump you and rape you?”
“I am much stronger than you think. Anyone who can defeat me has the right to take me! If they win, that is.”
Seryu tilted his head, looking at her saying something incomprehensible.
So, does that mean I can attack her if I defeat her?
Is she seducing me right now?
With a little anticipation, I asked her.
“Then don’t I already have the right? I defeated you yesterday.”
“No, that has to be acknowledged in front of my people. You’re strong enough… so there’s a possibility. If you want to marry me, come visit Eisenstein later. You can prove it again there.”
Seryu thought for a moment and nodded.
“I’ll do that. I happened to promise to help you find your subordinates. Perfect.”
“I look forward to it. If you’re a strong and young hero like you, you’re enough to be my partner.”
“Hero? Do I look like a hero?”
“If a strong person like you is not a hero, who would be called a hero? I think, you are as strong as the warriors of Valhalla. You may be proud.”
At her unexpected praise, Seryu shrugged and woke up Kvasir.
As promised yesterday, I made it my goal to help her find her lost soldiers for the time being.
While going back the way Brynhildr came, Seryu hunted the orcs that appeared from time to time.
Kvasir, saying that she didn’t like meaningless killing, just watched from behind, but Brynhildr was very satisfied with Seryu’s actions and kept throwing spears.
Originally, she would have hunted alone to raise her level, but Brynhildr said it wasn’t in her nature to just watch and acted on her own.
In the end, we had no choice but to share the experience points. The fact that I was getting less experience points due to the level difference with the orcs made the amount even smaller, and it made my mouth bitter.
Orcs appeared from afar, thinking they were prey.
The orcs, with their strong reproductive desire, rushed at Brynhildr and Kvasir, who were remarkably beautiful, as if they were out of their minds.
As all orcs have done so far, they have no idea that they are the prey.
Kwwaaa!
“Freeze.”
At a single word, the ground froze, and the feet of the orcs, running with angry roars, froze.
Before, it just emitted a cold chill, but as the level went up and the grimoire’s power was further unlocked, if you put your feet on that ice, they would freeze.
The orc, whose feet were frozen and couldn’t budge, became Brynhildr’s target without fail.
Despite the distance, the silver spear flew wonderfully and pierced the orc’s body.
No, it didn’t pierce, it went through and embedded itself in the ground.
Seryu glanced at the trembling spear shaft and moved his body towards the next prey.
Brynhildr’s power was beyond what he thought. When she took a proper stance and threw the spear, she showed amazing penetration and destructive power.
And as a result of observing her while sweeping through the orc village, Seryu learned that Brynhildr could create three spears at a time.
I don’t know if she’s hiding her skills and can create more, or if she uses three because it’s the most efficient.
Anyway, Seryu and Brynhildr wandered around the forest while destroying the orc village.
“How long has it been since you lost your subordinates?”
“Hmm~ it’s been about a day. I checked until the sun set. Ah, no. It’s two days.”
Is it including yesterday?
Seryu nodded.
“By the way, it’s quite easy. Just the two of us sweeping away orcs…”
Brynhildr glanced at Seryu and said.
When she landed on this land with her subordinates to conquer it, she realized that this was not human territory, but orc territory.
Great!, she immediately led her subordinates and built an outpost.
She decided to gradually expand her territory by subduing orcs and migrating her people to make it Eisenstein’s land.
However, the orcs were stronger than expected, and some soldiers were injured in the process of expanding the territory.
Furthermore, there were casualties when orc groups attacked while building the outpost.
Having no choice, she led her elite unit, the Silver Spear Unit, into the forest, but it wasn’t easy.
It was difficult for the javelins, the strength of the Silver Spear Unit, to exert their power due to the dense trees and bushes, and she got lost in the process of killing the orcs.
The story went off track, but anyway, what she felt was that it didn’t seem easy to conquer the orcs in this forest.
“It was just the other day that I had that thought. It’s amazing.”
“Huh? What is?”
“No, it’s nothing. You don’t need to know.”
Seryu looked at Brynhildr with questioning eyes, but then he stopped caring.
If they found an orc village or group while walking, Seryu and Brynhildr immediately slaughtered the orcs.
I’m not sure, but the number of orcs in the western forest must have decreased significantly in the last few days.
Even though they are orcs that spread widely with their excellent reproductive ability, two slaughterers appeared and hunted them, so their numbers had to decrease.
As time slowly passed, orcs were not easily seen.
Then, perhaps because they were lucky, they once encountered an orc leader twice as tall as other orcs.
He was breathing through his nostrils and had a huge axe that seemed to cut down thick trees with one swing.
Brynhildr excitedly threw spears, saying the target was big, and eventually the orc leader died with his body pierced like a skewer.
The experience points were good, but unfortunately, he didn’t have Jinmara’s fragment.
After hunting orcs, Seryu saw something shining beyond the forest, from a very far distance.
It disappeared from sight quickly, but he roughly recognized what it was.
“Do your subordinates also carry silver spears?”
“That’s right. My unit carries silver spears with me. That unit is the Silver Spear Unit that conquered Eisenstein with me! The Silver Spear Unit that I personally lead!”
“Silver Spear Unit?”
“Isn’t it a cool name? I put a lot of thought into it.”
Seryu could roughly understand what it was like.
Perhaps she named it Silver Spear Unit because it’s a unit that uses silver spears like her.
A name she put a lot of thought into, my foot. It’s just simple… but I couldn’t say what I was thinking.
I had no choice but to nod with a sullen expression at her, who was asking repeatedly, “Isn’t it good?”, with sparkling eyes.
“But how did you know that all of a sudden?”
“I saw it over there. Far away-“
I pointed the direction with my finger, but Brynhildr can’t seem to see it.
Kvasir also shook her head and made a puzzled expression, saying she didn’t know.
“Then! You can guide me! Now, let’s go!”
After a while, we moved quite a distance and arrived.
The Silver Spear Unit was wandering through the forest as if they were still looking for their queen, Brynhildr.
“Is that the unit?”
“That’s right, it’s definitely my unit!”
Seryu observed the appearance of the Silver Spear Unit.
They’re wearing light leather clothes inside, a black coat-like garment on the outside, and a black hat with a long brim down to the bridge of their nose. It was a hat also called a Robin Hood hat.
They were armed with silver spears in both hands, the one in their left hand was a thin and light-looking spear for close combat, and the one in their right hand was a thick, cone-shaped spear.
One surprising thing is that the unit was entirely composed of women.
The bulging breasts on top of the leather tops were the proof.
“It’s Your Majesty!”
While observing the appearance of the Silver Spear Unit, one of the members shouted in surprise as if they had found Brynhildr.
The gazes were immediately focused. And the unit members approached, wary of Seryu who was next to Brynhildr.
“Your Majesty!”
“Hahaha! I finally found you!”
Brynhildr ran towards her unit members with a bright face.
“Are you alright?”
“Of course! Who do you think I am!”
Seryu slowly moved his steps towards them, looking at her having a joyful reunion.
As Seryu approached, some of the Silver Spear Unit members who were looking at the queen became wary and tried to raise their spears, but Brynhildr stopped them. The woman, presumed to be the leader of the Silver Spear Unit, was puzzled by Brynhildr’s action.
Brynhildr is unforgiving to men who show desire for her.
Even in Eisenstein, several kings proposed to her, but she didn’t kill them all, saying they were weak and not to her liking.
She carefully asked in a small voice.
“But Your Majesty, who is this man?”
“Ah, yes. I haven’t had a chance to tell you. He is a man I acknowledge.”
In addition, she added that he had conquered several orc villages with her.
The Silver Spear Unit members looked at Seryu with displeasure, but they had no choice but to stay still since the queen, their commander and object of loyalty, acknowledged him.
Brynhildr chuckled and approached Seryu and held out her hand.
“Seryu. Kvasir. I invite you.”
