Underground ruins that are the subject of an adventurer's attack. It is scattered throughout the Empire, but is particularly common in the Imperial East.

That's why the Knights of St. Sophia are also headquartered in the eastern port town.

Getting back from here to Imperial Capital takes a lot of time, even with a carriage.

He's a member of the famous Knights, so no, he's an ex-member, but he's noisy and troublesome when he finds out who he is.

Besides, I was banished, so I'm not in a very cool position either.

True, I'm famous as the Magic Swordsman Solon, but few people have seen me in person.

So if you keep your mouth shut, you won't know.

I hid my identity, paid the price, and got in the big boarding carriage.

There are plenty of passengers there. There are also two escorts. The streets around here are safe, but it's not like there's any danger of raids at all.

It's been awhile since the carriage started running.

I was biting my yawn off, but I noticed a female guest sitting in front of me looking at me.

She was probably about the same age girl as Sophia. The fluffy skirt looks like a new one and wears carefully tailored clothing overall.

I mean, this girl is wealthy.

But it seems that being in a carriage does not mean that you are a nobleman or a lavish lady. She has short, refreshing hair, but I guess she keeps it out of the way of her job.

Something like a noble servant in Imperial Capital, I think.

I wonder why this kid cares about me.

By the way, I'm wearing outdated, cheap adventurer outfits.

Though I don't think it's an object of interest.

"Do you care about anything?

And when I asked, the girl trembled.

"Shh, excuse me. Take a good look. It's rude, right?"

The girl blushed shyly. Even though I say it's rude, the girl's big eyes are still pointed at this one.

Somehow, he's got a little animal-like vibe.

"I say Clarice. I'm a maid at the Imperial Palace."

"That's amazing"

Satisfied that Clarice met her own expectation of being a servant, while striking a correlation with

But I didn't know it was the Imperial Palace. Even when it comes to maids, they are still respected if they work where the imperial chamber is involved. It shouldn't be easy to get hired either.

"I'm not proud of you, though."

With that said, hehe, Clarice laughs.

I guess I'm proud of you.

I ask, smiling bitterly.

"Was there anything you could do around here?

"I have a home. Oh, brother. I'm younger, so you don't have to respect me."

"Thanks for that. Why did you talk to me?

"The journey takes the road, doesn't it? I wanted someone to talk to. My brother and I seem to be the closest of the customers."

If you say so, except for the escort, it seemed like it was really just me and Clarice on board.

I can't even say my real name, so I named it Davido.

Clarice stared at the sword I was lowering to her waist.

"It's a magic sword, isn't it?"

"You know very well."

"Uh, your brother's a magic swordsman, isn't he?

"Exactly, though?

Speaking of which, this magic sword is the legendary treasure sword Tetracord. But from a stranger's point of view, I think it just looks like an old sword.

The number of magic swordsmen is never high, but it is not so rare. Just because you're a magic swordsman doesn't mean you'll find out you're a "Knights of St. Sophia solon" either.

But Clarice looked happy and said.

"When it comes to magic swordsmen, you're Master Solon!

"Thor, Master Thor?

I cough up unexpectedly after I say it.

Calm down, tell yourself.

I'm not saying it when I realize it's about me.

Clarice just waved the subject of celebrities who are not here.

"After all, did your brother also give up to Master Solon to become a magical swordsman?

Naturally, that's not true. Because Solon is about me.

Mostly, it wasn't before that that our Knights became famous.

But before I uttered a word of denial, Clarice continued.

"Nice, Master Solon! I'm a big fan. Help Lady Sophia the Virgin to fight the Ruin Demons and not take a step toward any mighty enemy! I hear you're a nice guy full of chivalry!

I guess not, I swallow the word.

If I say something that denies Solon, Clarice is going to be grumpy.

Well, it's about me. I'm not such a good guy.

"Plus, I'm from the same civilians as us! He was originally an aristocratic servant like me, wasn't he? That's what I admire."

"I see."

"Magic Swordsman Solon" is popular because he is from a civilian. With strength over nobility, he created the strongest knighthood as a companion to the Virgin.

An ideal existence that fulfilled the dreams of the civilian population. In the world, that's how you lift me.

But how about reality?

In the end, he lost to a distinguished fellow aristocrat and was kicked out of the party.

I feel heavier when I think someone respects me like Clarice.

The world still doesn't know I've been banished from the Knights.

"Thanks to adventurers like Solon and your brother freeing the ruins, we civilians can live."

Clarice said smiling flutterly.

Suddenly, the carriage swayed heavily and stopped as it was.

There are strange signs.

When I looked at Clarice, I had eyes. Her eyes were shaking anxiously.

I snapped.

"Raid."
