The Best Assassin, Incarnated into a Different World's Aristocrat

After a long stay in the King's Capital, a carriage is driving down the road at night.

I'm taking turns with my father, and now it's my turn.

I have Dia and Tart next door, but Dia has been in a bad mood since just now.

"I'm sorry. I didn't forget the date. I thought I could make a day or so."

"Hmm. That's about what I know with my head. That's why I don't complain. But not on the emotional side. Let me do it."

I had promised a date in Wang Du to thank him for his hard work in developing the magic of the Demonic Killer.

But one after the other, invitations from the nobles, which could not be refused in the character of Towahade, could not be made even for a single day: free time.

... Just a few moments I found it, it was also taken to Neusch. He was quiet in the place where his father was, but then he asked for a secret meeting.

I didn't know he was thinking about that big thing.

"I'll make up for it. I'm going to Murteau when I get back, so this is really my date."

"Murteau! When I went there, there was something I couldn't get around."

As grumpy as I was earlier, I brighten my face all the time.

I was going to go to Murteau about a report from Marha at a dance party.

I'll take Dia there too.

Some things I want to align for Dia.

"But are you okay? Master Luig, who became a knight of the Holy Knight, will have to go to the area as soon as he has orders from the castle."

"It's okay. I plan to stay a night or two. I'm not staying that long."

The position of the Holy Knight is to dispatch external enemies to the local area when they appear.

To some extent, there are mobility constraints.

"Hehe, you're looking forward to it. Where shall we go?"

"If there's no hope, I'll escort you. That's my garden."

I spent two years as Ilg Balor.

It can be called the second home over there.

"Well, please. I knew it, because I wanted you to escort me.... because if it doesn't work next time, I'll really snap."

"Good luck not to. Assuming the Demons show up by the time we get to Murteau, then we'll go on a local date."

"I'm looking forward to that. I don't really want to go to the region."

"You don't have to."

Unless you like a lot of things, yes, nobles don't step into other territories.

Dia rubs her eyes. I was trying to sleep.

"I would be tired. Don't force yourself, sleep."

At the party venue, because of its beauty, it was entangled in the blubbering of the various nobles.

I'm not tired of showing up with only the great nobleman, Vicone's maid.

Besides, it's too late.

"Well, that's sweet of you to say. Good night."

That's when I started sleeping with my thighs as pillows.

I said sweet, but this is too sweet.

But that's not bad.

Because you can see Dia's pretty sleeping face so close.

Tart looks at Dia like she's jealous.

The dia opens her eyes thinly.

"You always look like you want something. If you want me to, you can. That's a bad tart for you. If you're going to shy away, be thorough not to show it to your face. It's too sweet in a different way, and it's too thick, waiting for something delicious to fall with your mouth open, expecting Lug to look at it that way."

"Wow, I didn't mean that."

"A little more, I want you to believe Lug and me. Lug won't be bothered by Tart's selfishness, and I won't be angry either. Look, if you want Lug to knee pillow, say so."

"... are you sure?

"I'm fine. I don't know about Lug."

"That's right."

"If you ask me, I'll know."

I'm telling you something pretty tough, but it's true.

It's the cutest thing about Dia, too.

"Oh, uh, Master Lug, can I have my knee pillow, too?

Tart asks about it in a rough way.

"Oh, I don't mind. Instead, when it's your turn, let me use your tart knee now."

"Ha! I'm so excited"

I'll even put my head on the tart while it's good. Dia is repositioning the tart to make it easier to get his head on it.

When they both have knee pillows at the same time, it's just heavy, but I feel like there are more weird happy ingredients out there than that.

Well, I'm feeling better. Shall we hurry to our nostalgic home?

◇

He was coming to Murteu after returning to Towahade territory and refreshing after a day of rest.

"... Hey, Lug. I've been away from humans for a long time, but you're finally quitting humans perfectly. What can I do to get here in just two hours from Tower Hard?"

"Hold Dia princess and run"

I would use a carriage if I had more luggage, but otherwise it would be quicker to run.

There was still room in the [Crane Skin Bag] and I didn't have to worry about the luggage.

So I did.

Plus, I wanted to test my current physical abilities with the power of Epona.

"Master Lug, I can't do this anymore"

The tart is sitting around.

"No, it's enough that they followed me"

It was unusual for me to lead the way as the wind, and the burden was much lighter, but still follow.

There are probably less than a hundred people in this country who can do it.

"I'm surprised, too. I could hang in there if I didn't want Master Lug to leave me at all. Just now, I'm going to arrange an inn and grab you. Good luck with your date."

"Oh, please"

Any user who asks Tart to go to Marha first and request a hand-wound.

That's right. Marha wouldn't expect me to be here anymore.

◇

And the date in Murteau begins.

Enjoy the cake with your favorite patisserie.

"Hmm, this raw cream tongue is great"

"You can come here whenever you want"

This is an expensive store, but not a fancy one. However, the quality of the materials used does not attract luxury stores.

More importantly, I like the pastry chef's arm.

Raw cream and sponge. What is at the foundation of it all stands out.

These powerful stores are valuable, not just the upscale ones with the atmosphere.

Drink the herbal tea I ordered with the cake.

"This is Lug's favorite."

"Apparently, you're also an Orna customer here"

The cosmetic brand, Orna, not only sells cosmetics, but also herbal teas and treats aimed primarily at wealthy women.

This tea leaf is not available outside of Orna because it buys away tea plantations abroad and uses varietal improvements to the tea leaves that were grown there.

Speaking of which, Marha was a fan of this store, too.

It is not the kind of tea leaf that can be served at the price offered in this store.

I guess it's cheap and wholesale, combined with publicity. It is a hidden and famous restaurant with a good customer base.

Herbal tea shines brighter if drunk with the best cake.

Many customers want to drink this tea at home as well, which is good publicity. Marha is doing well for me.

"I need to buy you a souvenir. Exactly, I feel guilty... next time you and Tart go on a date together."

"Don't worry, I have the souvenirs ready to be received on my way home. But it was a surprise for a woman to tell me that you were going out with another girl."

"I wouldn't normally say that. Too good a tart, so I'm really curious."

I don't know, Dia thinks of Tart as an important friend.

The line on the carriage the other day was also what I said for tarts.

"... and then maybe I can afford to put it in a nasty way. I wonder if I can forgive you for tarting because I think you're the best of Lug. Otherwise, I'd probably have been jealous."

"Oh well. It conveys feelings properly and most importantly. Well, it's time to go. To the next store. The date is coming up."

"Yeah, let's go"

Hold hands and leave the store.

Dia wasn't the only one looking forward to today's date, so was I.

◇

Look up at my face, looking at how excited Dia is.

"That was amazing. Even though I don't use magic, it's just stranger than magic, living even when it's in two parts, or people moving around instantly. I suspected you were using magic along the way, and I sensed magic, but I really didn't use magic at all!

What we were watching was a so-called magic show.

I thought Dia, the grand aristocrat, was tired of watching theatre, and I saw a magic show that came from abroad recently and became popular.

She liked Dia more than she thought.

"It'll be interesting"

"Did you find out how Lug was doing?

"You got it all today."

"Lie. Then tell me."

"First of all, the human amputation has a trick on the bed I was using, that one with a cloth on the bed's leg would have been a dead end. That's it. Actually, there are two of them, bent at the waist like this, the upper body keeper hiding the lower body, the lower body keeper hiding the upper body under the bed. The blade doesn't pass between us, so it wasn't cut off."

"Ah, if you ask me"

Extremely simple, but thus hard to notice.

"So what about instantaneous travel?

"That's a twin. There's a hidden door on stage, and there's room for one person to hide. I would have left the cards in the sky as much as I wanted and put the cloth on. Audience awareness focuses on cards and cloth. Hiding in that gap in a hidden door, the twins emerge from a hidden door that is further away. At the end of the concealed door, there is a concealed passage, and it is common to move and show up, but by taking advantage of the twins, you were showing up in an instant and increasing your impact."

"Even the twins, how did you know?

"If you look closely, it makes a difference if you're a twin. Not only for the face, but also for what you're wearing. If you look at clothes, it's one shot. Skin gloss, dirt, seams, all different"

"... magic, magic, physical ability, even if you pull all of that out, you're not a human being, are you?"

I think they said something quite rude.

"Is it refreshing to find out what the seed is?

"Yeah, neat. But you can see through."

"This kind of thing is a habit. A magic trick is a polar theory, aggregated into two technologies. One, create a blind spot and craft it. Two, show me what you want to show me, and I won't let you recognize what you don't want to be seen. This is the same thing as my main business. So I really feel how they are trying to direct this perception, and I look the other way reflexively. Otherwise, he dies in the main business. So look at what they don't want to show and notice the seeds"

Not only basic ideas, but also methods of assassination are quite tricky.

I had that relationship and mastered the trick in my previous life as well. ideas and the training of recognition manipulation techniques, dexterity of the hand.

Very compatible with assassinations and tricks.

"You really can do anything, can't you?... could you do more amazing tricks than this?

"Of course, I can"

"Then let me see it! Party at the Mansion. It's like nobility, not calling out to all kinds of houses, but it feels like a family buzz. So Lug's a great trick."

"Sounds interesting. Will you cooperate then? I have an assistant."

"Eh, if it doesn't look like it's going to hurt to be in two or something"

"Oh, I'll have that kind of trick. I'm comfortable with you being my assistant, because the more beautiful my assistant is, the better."

"It lights up a little when you say so."

Dia wraps her own arm around my arm.

The two of us walk through the city at night.

I'm done with my plans for today, and all I have to do is go back to the inn.

Dia stops after a while.

"What's going on?"

"Hey, Lug, why don't we stop by that?

The stop is in front of the inn.

But that's not a normal inn, where you can take a short break.

In a country like Towahade, there is no such thing, but it is prepared to be a bit of a city.

"Eh, I knew, that tart and hey... the mansion with your mother or something, I was a little embarrassed about that, and I couldn't ask Lug to do it, but here it is"

He has a poor, bright red face and says he's blushing.

It may be my fault, but it smells sweeter than usual.

"I don't mind, but I'm just not sure I can stand it if I get in here like this either. That's really good."

"... stop asking me that. Even though I'm embarrassed to death."

As the word goes, he's so upset that he can't see my face anymore.

I've always wanted to love Dia.

But if I got my hands on it, the tag of reason would come off and I was patient with how far I was going to go.

But let me put it this way, and if you still don't get your hands on it, that's not a man.

... Plus, there could be something going on.

"Dia, be as gentle as you can"

I don't even get back to you, I pull that hand.

Dia kept her face down, but she held her hand back hard.

Finally.

Drink sauce and saliva.

I've been through a lot of sexual intercourse in my previous life and here.

But this is the first time I've superimposed my thoughts and body on someone I love.

Slightly nervous.

... I've never been so nervous before. I even did it flat out when I assassinated the president of a major country.

But I won't put that tension on the table with assassin technology at all.

Because when I get anxious, Dia will be more scared.
