However, despite this, Bedwell kept glancing at the food baggage prepared on the side from time to time.

Is there really no problem......

"Drink it, little ghost, I've been looking for you for a while and finally found you. Don't run around if it's okay, what if you get to Rome and get separated? ”

At this moment, Merlin strode over to me and shouted.

"What, I haven't moved around here all this time, if it weren't for you, I would have set off a long time ago."

Looking at Merlin, who was belatedly coming, I couldn't help but wonder.

"Lord Merlin, you shouldn't be a road dementia again." Bediwell, who was gobbling up, raised his head when he heard the voice, looked at Merlin and said, "You were so lost in your room that you didn't show up for a whole day, but this incident made the king and the knights worry about the future of Britain for several days......"

"Ahem...... Don't talk about it, so I just used teleportation magic to move later. Merlin coughed a few times in embarrassment, "There's nothing more reassuring than going straight to your destination." ”

"Uh...... Wait, you mean the teleportation magic you taught me you used to keep you from getting lost? "I was speechless.

"Heck, that's hard to do, after all, nightmares are completely incapable of discerning the direction of reality, just as you ordinary people can't find logic in dreams." Merlin spread his hands and sighed, "I just walked a little bit in the barracks, and I didn't understand where I was at all......

"That'...... You're going to teleport right here and head to the command room. I pressed my temple, "Isn't this the way you've developed to deal with road idiots?" ”

"The condition for the use of teleportation magic is that the caster must know the direction of his body, and the magic method I taught you myself forgot so quickly?" Merlin interrupted me angrily, "There are no references before and after, not even soldiers passing by who can orient me." I can only stand still and hope that you will pass by and find me. ”

“…… Are you a little kid who is lost waiting for an adult to pick you up?! ”

"Anyway, thanks to the smell of rice wafting from afar at the moment of emergency, I found it here step by step." Merlin waved his arms, "I haven't eaten anything early in the morning, I'm dying of hunger!" ”

"Lord Merlin, please move to the barracks' dining room, where there is still plenty of food stock."

Before I could say anything, Bedwell was the first to interrupt.

"Huh? However, in my opinion, it is better to have ready-made food. Merlin smiled sheepishly, and was about to lean up and stretch out his hand to the baggage on the side, "The food made by the little ghost is extremely good in both appearance and taste, and no one can refuse." ”

"It's for the king, so if you're brave enough, take it."

Bedwell replied with a flat face.

"Uh...... That's still it. Merlin withdrew her hand in a curtle, "If Artoria knew I had touched her food, she would have killed me later......"

"Well, it's good that you can understand that."

Bedwell nodded.

"Then in that case, I'll have to get some food from you."

Merlin had a strange glint in his eyes, and instantly reached out to the food that had not been touched much in front of Bedwell.

"Don't succeed!" However, Bediwell had already prepared, and with a wave of his arm, the plate suddenly moved away with the food for a long distance away from Merlin's hand, "My king has a word, the food made by Lord Weigong is the treasure of Britain, and unauthorized people are not allowed to eat it!" ”

"Hehe, it's your food anyway, and it's not against the principle to give me some of the excess."

Merlin still didn't give up, and stretched out his thief's hand again.

"In the name of the knight, swear to defend the food of Lord Guard!"

Bedwell, on the other hand, shouted, and wrestled with Merlin.

"Okay, Merlin, I have prepared a lot of food on the way, all of which can be enjoyed to your heart's content, so why rush at this time?"

I reluctantly interjected,

"Hmph, that's right, little ghost, once in a while, let me enjoy the treatment that Lily can only enjoy." Merlin then smiled with satisfaction, "It's just the two of us along the way, and we can do a lot of interesting things." ”

"No, that's disgusting!"

——

With some expected frustration, Merlin and I set out on our way to Rome.

It was about half a day's journey from the border of the Frankish Empire to the Roman Empire, and this was still on horseback.

If you can use teleportation magic, distance doesn't matter.

However, since I hadn't been to Rome before, I couldn't teleport to a place I hadn't been to with my body.

Therefore, I can only go through it step by step on my own.

Fortunately, Emperor Nero gave me a map showing the best route to the Roman Empire, which was not only the closest, but also the most gentle.

After leaving the Frankish Empire, the nations were supposed to intercept us as we crossed the territory without any scruples. However, with letters and maps, everything became unimpeded.

And just as the scout reported, the flag of the country on the way was replaced by a brightly colored rose.

Obviously, they had all become the territory of Emperor Nero, who appeared without warning.

"This is the last country, and further on there is Rome."

After half a day's journey, looking at the faintly emerging border ahead, Merlin whispered to me.

"yes, I understand."

I also nodded solemnly.

Even a fool can feel that the overall atmosphere of the land ahead is extremely different.

This extremely strange feeling in my heart is as if the land fell out of thin air thousands of years ago, full of a strong sense of disobedience.

"Little ghost, from now on, you will be the only one in front of you." Merlin patted me on the shoulder and whispered, "After all, the emperor's request is to see you alone, and we will accommodate her request." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and scribbled it a few more times in front of my chest.

"I've left a sense of magic on you, and once that Nero Emperor shows murderous intent to you, I'll immediately teleport to you to protect you, so don't worry too much."

"Huh? Merlin: Have you ever been to Rome before? ”

I couldn't help but ask in amazement to hear Merlin say that he could teleport.

"Hahaha, there's no place in this world that I haven't set foot in." Merlin smirked, "I can come and go freely in this world, who can help me?" ”
