CHAPTER 87: THEIR NEW TRIP (PART 1)

After having dinner with Kagura, Mira was led to a room in the inner palace where she spent the night. The next morning she had an ichiju gosai breakfast, a traditional breakfast that included one soup bowl with five side dishes.Afterwards she met up with Sasori and Hebi, before heading to the tower that indicated the exit of the headquarters together with Kagura who was seeing them off.The tower was tall, with spiral steps that made Mira feel exhausted just from looking at them, but she quickly followed after the other three girls who began climbing them.When they reached the top of the tower, which held the gate that connected the headquarters to the lake, they saw Arlon was already there. The little equipment he wore was reinforced with gold, exuding an aura of confidence.

「Good morning Arlon.」「Oh hey, morning.」

When Kagura, mostly known as Uzume there, greeted him, he turned from watching the sky waving above to look at the four girls, smiling as he returned the greeting. That place was commonly used as the meeting point whenever the Fifty Bells had missions.

「Now this is quite the wonderful lineup.」

Arlon said in an entertained tone. In front of him stood the very commander of the Fifty Bells, two of their elite members, and to top it off the pupil of a wiseman. He was so hyped for this mission that he ended up waking up really early that morning.On the other hand, Sasori smiled confidently, while Hebi muttered 「He’s big」 after glancing at Arlon. She was worried about the capacity of the wagon.

「Alright, let’s go over the plan one last time.」

Uzume quickly assumed a more serious face as she reviewed their mission.

「Your first destination is the Libra Fortress. You’ll get there by flying on Mira’s wagon. There your objective will be to capture Chimera Clauzen’s higher ups. Is everything clear so far?」「Yes, no questions from me.」

Arlon replied as such, and everyone else nodded in accord. After a short pause, Uzume continued while looking at Mira.

「You’ll have Garuda carry the wagon, correct?」「Yes, exactly!」

Summoning spells were not only useful in battle, but also to carry things like wagons, so hearing that fact stated, made Mira stick out her chest pridefully.Uzume knew Mira, or rather Danbulf very well, and she also remembered Garuda’s demeanor and appearance, which made her feel somewhat uncertain.

「You have to stop by Sarut’s Union first to gain permission to enter, so try to look like a regular carriage after that. If you go all the way there with such a conspicuous bird, you’ll stand out too much and Chimera might suspect something.」

She quickly limited Mira’s ability to show off her summoning.

「Okay, I understand…」

Mira slouched her back like a small kitten, replying dejectedly to Uzume.

「Wait, better yet, travel by land as soon as Sarut comes in sight. One can never be too careful with Chimera after all.」

Mira only grunted slightly in assent, sighing knowing that it would still take a long time before the resurrection of summoners.

「We don’t know when Chimera’s higher ups will show up, so you’ll probably end up having to spend quite some time in there. During that time, Sasori and Hebi will be standing watch, while you and Arlon try to save energy to fight in your best shape when the time comes.」「Roger that.」

Arlon replied instantly, turning to look at Mira afterwards. From the way Uzume spoke, he could tell she had absolute trust in her, which made his expectations from her grow even more.

When that was taken care of and she regained her composure, Mira opened the wagon door with an exaggerated manner. Sasori quickly ran to her side, looking inside and raising an 「Ohh!」 of admiration. That lured Arlon who also peeked inside.
