244 Episode 3 Nemu and Claw

After the afternoon of the next day, our "Black Clown" party shows its face to the royal palace as promised.

Honestly, it's not such a splendid thing as a "royal palace", but it's about the size of a small mansion.

Nevertheless, it does not change where the race kingdom and royalty live.

The gatekeeper had already spoken, so no matter what anyone did, they could go there without a problem.

― ― If there was a problem, it would have been Lilith, the first prince of the race kingdom, who was not the first to be passed and guided.

In advance, I was planning to meet with Lilith in the conference room to discuss the travel escort....

When I followed the guide I was waiting for, I was guided to the soldiers' training grounds for some reason.

Apparently, the understudy who served as the guide was instructed by Klau's hand, money, etc.

Claw put his arms together, followed the soldiers behind him, and asked in a low voice.

"The 'Black Clown' party where you guys escort Lilith.... A slender woman in a creepy mask who doesn't think she can fight properly against an idiotic, dressed swordsman who misunderstands the battlefield...."

Claw's dialog stops halfway.

I was expecting him to attach Ichamon to us and get Lilith's escort off himself.

Halfway through, he hated me and Gold, but somehow I stopped at Nemu and got fascinated by her.

Claw's hostile glances loosened and his cheeks became red.

He relieves the arm he was wearing to intimidate, coughs up his hair, and then asks Nemum.

"Ohhh, is that woman a part of the Black Clown party?

"Yes, she's one of us?

"I'm not asking you! It would be disrespectful to speak to me cheerfully as a royal race in the midst of a lowly adventurer! He's smart!

When I respond on behalf of Claw, he shouts like a fiery fire. [M]

Nemum becomes obviously frustrated, but we are civilians in the building and are just a few adventurers, albeit A class.

The opponent is royalty, so it is superior as an outward position.

I can honestly poke my knees and hang my head, thinking, "This prince is too cautious."

Gold and Nemum also learned to stick their knees and lowered their heads.

Claw asks again.

"Is that woman part of the party? Forgive me for speaking plainly. Answer me."

"... yes, I'm part of the Black Clown party"

Nemum answers with a hard voice.

From the people I usually deal with, I can see that I'm in a clear mood, but Klau didn't notice and relaxed his cheeks in a good mood.

"Beauty comparable to millions of flowers, a more beautiful voice than fairy feathers... I didn't know such a beautiful person was wearing adventurers."

While dyeing his cheeks, Claw approached Nemum.

"Can you tell me your name?

"... it's Nemu."

Answer the bluffs as Nemum is about to slap his tongue.

Clearly, "I'm in a bad mood right now," but I can't reach Claw.

He comes up with a suggestion in a good mood.

"Beautiful beauty, beautiful voice, not only that, but also cute to the name... Nemu, would you like to be my personal maid? If you become my maid, you can live safely in the castle without the danger of being an adventurer."

No, thanks.

Nemum blocked Claw's invitation and refused.

Claw, who didn't think he'd be rejected, froze and stiffened his smile.

The soldiers behind them also pulled their cheeks because they didn't think they would be rejected at all.

Claw recovers from the stiffness with a smile on his face and proposes again.

"Think about it, Nemum. If you become my exclusive maid, you won't have to do dirty, rough and dangerous work like an adventurer, and if you live in a castle, you won't be endangered like a monster or a bandit. Besides, if you're by my side, I can give you a luxurious life you can't taste as an adventurer. You can decorate yourself with jewelry, cosmetics, and more in a dress like you've never seen before. That's why I want you to think about it."

"After careful consideration, I refuse."

"So why!

Claw was confused by Nemu's awesome attitude and shouted.

Nemum approached Claw's anger and spoke indifferently without fear of the loud voice of doubt.

"The Dark Lord is the only place where I exist. Above all, the safest, most luxurious and meaningful place in the world can only be on Dark's side. It is impossible for you to leave the Dark Lord's side, even if the heavens and the earth are turned over. Even if I die, I will serve you with my soul."

(Nemu, not as an adventurer, but the face of the nemu of Assassin Blade, the lowest level of "Naraka", is coming out!?

I put a stick in my chest, but it can't be stopped. [M]

"What, Dark?

"The one wearing this mask is Dark."

Nemu's introduction drew my attention. [M]

Claw looked over the mask.

He was staring at the name of a beautiful girl he liked with an angry expression against me who dedicates his soul rather than his body and mind.

He stares at all the jealousy of a man.

To be honest, from this level of gaze, from me, who has lurked through many Shura grounds, none of them are alike... but there was only one thing that bothered me.

(Claw... why did he call us to a training camp like this? I thought it was to prevent you from being Lilith's escort...)

Somehow I was keen to solicit Nemum.

I don't understand his intentions and get a little confused.

"Oniisama! What are you doing!?

The voice of a woman echoes in the training area.

Everyone's gaze gathers.

Lilith, the first princess of the race kingdom, shows up at the training camp with fake Yume.

With me, Gold, and Nemu kneeling, Lilith sweats cold with her blue face as she stares at her brother.

When Lilith appeared, Claw said, "Oh no!?" and distorted his expression.

(What does he really want to do?

I didn't really understand Claw's intentions and kept thinking about his prospects in my heart. [M]
