Reincarnated Young Lady Aims to Be an Adventurer - Volume 8 Chapter 120

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

As the New Year begins, I turned 17. Seventeen!

In Japan, 17 years old……is the most enjoyable time of your life, it feels like the world is revolving around you! Adolescence in its full bloom!

Haaaa……in this life, it’s the boundary between life and death.

◇ ◇ ◇ 

Saintess Eris did not allow anything to be concealed.

The queen’s death due to an accident, the king’s sickness, and that the two princes were still inexperienced and unqualified to succeed to the throne, she issued a proclamation that temporarily Judor would using a parliamentary system and the members would consist of the temple’s people and also experts. Some of the experts are crying out to Eris-neesan, including papa……

Thanks to Schneider’s pity? at the end of the year during the truce, as the Lord of Trundle, I gathered all the people I could find to go to the mansion that was burned and threw a campfire party, barbecuing all the mountain products we could find and served Matsuki’s food since Matsuki had recovered from his injuries. We expressed our gratitude and all of us prayed for the future prosperity of our territory. From old people to young children, we were all united!

The people whose congratulations were late, the non-guild people……from Kikori’s uncle to the baker’s aunt, all of them kindly acknowledged that I became the Lord and it was all thanks to grandmother who made all the necessary arrangements. 

“Fufufu, isn’t that natural! All of us have been watching Serafiona-chan since you were a little girl, you know? You ran around all over Trundle because of the harsh training.”

Lara-san stroked my, the Lord’s, head nostalgically as she ate her sweet potato tart.

Brother dug up a weird black, round fossil from somewhere and it sold at auction for a hundred million gold. He quickly paid off his sister’s debts and Lara-san was back to her usual cute sister character. Big brother! Thank you!

◇ ◇ ◇

Then at the beginning of the year, I returned to Galle and stood next to Ghilane and was greeted by the nobles who were coming to wish us a happy new year. My stomach felt sick from all the attention that I’m getting, on behalf of the Iron Masked Gillen, but Ash spread his wings from his back and wrapped me in them, which made it easier to endure. Each time he did that, there were cheers all around me.

“This is an auspicious event in itself!”

It’s been a long time since I got annoyed by Richard.

Rainbow-colored wings looked as if it was extended from my back, doesn’t this look like the Legendary Star in my previous life? Or is it more like the midsummer bird-people contest?

Tabuchi-san and Yamada-kun came from Marshe for New Year’s greetings. It was hectic, but at the same time, it is also refreshing to hear about how the friends I made on Marshe and Reagan Island are doing. They inspected the management of the Nirva orphanage, and how they stimulated the children and Arthur, who were in a lukewarm state now that the demon business manager was gone.

Ghilane stayed in the Palace of the Festival Eve Vigil the whole time.

There are 3 platinum plates that are hanged on my chest.

One is Ghilane’s, one from Galea, and one from Trundle. I inserted my magic into the Trundle platinum plate that I got the other day and gave it to Ghilane. So now, there are also 3 plates hanging on Ghilane’s chest. It’s the same as mine.

As I stared at the plates, Ghilane said that he wanted me to spend next year’s New Year in his arms as well. As I was hesitating because I was afraid of the future, he forced me to promise him.

◇ ◇ ◇ 

Having done what needed to be done, Lu and I went back to live in the Granzeus territory for just a day. We reverted back to just a daughter and just a spoiled mofu and spent our time there while being pampered by papa, brother, Enrique, and Martha.

“Young lady! Matsuki had been pounding mochi all morning! Do you want to eat mochi with red bean paste? Or with sweet soybean flour?”

At last, even mocha are……Matsuki!!!

“One with red bean paste and one with sweet soybean flour!”

『I want chocolate filling!』

“Lu-sama wants chocolate filling? That’s a new one……I’ll have the mochi with Mashe’s soy sauce, thank you, Martha.”

“Once we finish eating, we’re all going to go hand out New Year’s presents to the kids. All of them are looking forward to it. It seems like they’re already lining up at Mammoth Park.”

“In the middle of this snow? Father, we should hurry up!”

『Fugaa! Gaho-gaho-gaho!』

“Lu-sama! Did the mochi get stuck in your throat?”

“Really! Lu, you idiot! Martha, bring me some water!”

『Fugafuga……』

Matsuki had learned to make food that not only tasted great but also had the effect of increasing strength and magic power.

『Matsuki……you’re doing that much for my sake……』

The Holy Beast, whose emotions never wavered, cried out.

◇ ◇ ◇ 

Then, it came! The Magic Academy.

It’s been around 10 years. I remembered it so clearly as if it was yesterday that I came here, as my hands were being held by father and grandmother.

I met my beloved Ghilane at my beloved brother’s match.

I also met Schneider here, at that time he wasn’t yet a danger to me.

As Lu said, it started here after all. In the end, the novel from my previous life and also in this life can only be settled here.

In Galle, where we celebrated the New Year, Ash told me all of a sudden.

『Lu taught me what his weakness was. 』

“……Why?”

『He told me to kill him during an emergency.』

During an emergency……that meant if Lu goes mad for Maribelle.

Last time, Lu tore his own legs in order to endure it. I don’t know if……he’ll be able to endure it this time. Maribelle is an unknown factor.

It should be impossible for a Holy Beast, a god, to expose its own weakness. Even if it’s to his trusted friend, Ash.

Lu……

“If Ash killed Lu, then I’ll go with him.”

One choice.

『Even if you have to leave Ghilane?』

“…………”

『Don’t worry, Sera. I will not let my friends die.』

“……”

『I just wanted to tell you about Lu’s resolution. Trust in Lu.』

“……Of course.”

『Let’s go, Sera.』

Lu growled at my shoulder. I pressed my own forehead against Lu’s and concentrated. Lu’s magic power calmed down my emotions.

Miyu is deep inside my chest pocket. Miyu is the secret among secrets. A special gun. Ash is in the sky. I have meticulously cast an illusion on all 3 of them. Even if it is going to be noticed, it’s better to be noticed as late as possible.

Although, I don’t know if I can deceive Schneider and Maribelle.

“Ok! Let’s go!”

I moved. Kodak-sensei and Sasara-neesan followed silently from behind.

We entered.

◇ ◇ ◇

About this match in the stadium, I’ve only spoken to my own people, but I’m not sure if Schneider’s side is the one who told them or if it was leaked from the Magic Academy that provided the place, but 80% of the audience seats are filled. The Prime Minister, Marquis Barth, and the head of the Imperial Guards, who looked dark, except for his bright green hair, can also be seen.

……Too much curiosity can ruin you, you know?

Of course, my overprotective family are all in the audience. However, I’ve made them all wear my defensive and magic-reflecting magic, the type of black cloak that goes completely over their heads, so the enemy can’t tell who is who.

I was given this much time. There’s no way that we would come defenseless. We expected that Maribel’s magic would not be activated unless she knew who it was visually.

But from my previous experience, there is also the possibility that the characters in [Noba Kimi] would definitely be affected by the magic. 

Anyway, I’ll protect my friends. As for my escort that have to reveal their faces, I chose Kodak-sensei and Sasara-san, who have excellent cooperation with each other, have no relation to 【Noba Kimi】, and no relation to Maribelle. I revealed Lu’s existence to them and both Lu and I cast defensive magic on them.

Sasara-san was greatly surprised and was convinced that the temple would kneel to me. She was understandably excited when I revealed that Eris-san could see Lu. After all, she’s a saintess. If you seriously train your magic, you’ll be able to see the mofumofu in no time.

Kodak-sensei……of course……knew all about this. He knelt down again to Lu and pledged his allegiance to him. Unbelievably, Lu gave Kodak-sensei his Matsuki’s special chocolate flavored dessert as a present!

『Since this guy had been guarding Sera all this time.』

Kodak-sensei clutched the chocolate bar and was at a loss for words when Lu presented him with the biggest thank you.

The three of us look the same as before. I just remade it by putting on defensive magic in the thread.

And my ninja-suit gray (modified dash) is embroidered with a trundle on my back, Galle’s emblem on my left arm, and an adult animal version of Lou on my right arm. The design was ruined by Lou many times. It already looks like a Yankee long run. If Schneider, who has a previous life, laughs at me, I might cry. Do you want me to stand in the left front with a hushed stance?

And on my gray shinobi costume <revised dash>, I added the embroidery of the crest of Trundle on the back, the crest of Galle on the left arm, and also the adult-sized Lu in the right arm. The design was rejected by Lu many times. It looked like a Yankee’s long coat. I might cry if I was laughed at by Schneider who has the memories of a previous life. Should I stand in front of the left?

The three of them and Lu stood on the east side of the field. I knew it was the same eastern army as Sekigahara Battle, right?

It’s time.
