Chapter 3 Disparity in Status

"See, that's it. Bastet jumped down from the tree and cheered happily.

After successfully crossing the Broken Sword Gorge Fortress, the trio entered the territory of Dinar and were walking along the road towards a nearby town, intending to rest there for a while before making further plans.

By this time, the spires of the buildings could be seen from behind the trees in front of me.

"Young master, what a beautiful city, I can't believe that I can live in such a beautiful place. Bastet, who had left the Northern Wasteland for the first time, shouted excitedly.

"That town is called Praza, and it's an important trading town in Kavey. If we go to the hinterland of Dinar, we will see even more spectacular cities. Lutz explained.

"But I think it's already remarkable. "No wonder Your Majesty is bent on occupying the human country, and it turns out that there is such a fertile land outside the northern wasteland. ”

As she spoke, she grabbed Raymond with a twinkle in her eyes: "Young master, we must find the best hotel in the city, people have long wanted to taste human food." ”

"Hey, can you be more productive than just eating..."

At this moment, I heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves coming from behind. I saw a group of cavalry open the way, escorting a richly decorated troika to this direction, and as the wheels rolled, the bells hanging on the carriage made a pleasant jingling sound.

When they first arrived at your place, of course, the three of them would not be troubled, and hurriedly let go to the side of the road. Soon, the convoy passed them, and just as the carriage passed them, the curtains were lifted and a beautiful maiden poked her head out.

She was wearing a gorgeous dress, and the ornaments on her body were jeweled and valuable, and she knew at a glance that she was the daughter of an upper-class aristocratic family.

When she saw the ugly-faced Lutz, a look of curiosity and surprise flashed in the girl's eyes. Then she saw the cute Catwoman, and her eyes lit up again, as if she had seen something she loved so much. Raymond, who looks like a human on the outside, doesn't care much about it.

In the face of this strange combination, the guard of the carriage was not as relaxed as the maiden. The knights all stared at the three of them vigilantly, and the weapons in their hands were also placed in positions that could attack at any time, and they did not dare to relax at all, which showed that the identity of the girl they were guarding was not simple.

Seeing that the girl had been staring at him, Raymond raised his eyebrows, and simply raised his hand to greet her: "Hey, hello." ”

How do you know that a simple sentence is like stabbing a hornet's nest. As if she didn't expect this person to be so bold, the girl in the carriage was slightly stunned, and then showed a displeased look.

The knights beside her also shouted: "Daring, do you know who you are talking to!"

The two knights even drew their weapons and rode their horses towards the trio.

"Meow, what do you want to do?" said Baste, not to be outdone, as one hand touched the hilt of the knife at her waist.

Seeing that the two sides were about to clash, Raymond stopped in front of Bath with one hand and motioned for her to step back.

Luz said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, we just finished the guild's mission, and we plan to go to Plzak to do some rest. Please forgive me if I was offended. ”

"Adventurers? It's rare to have orcs. The expressions of the two knights relaxed.

A knight beside the carriage whispered to the girl: "County Lord, it seems that I have misunderstood, the other party is three adventurers. The lord of Praza is still waiting to greet you, do you..."

The girl snorted and lowered the curtains: "Forget it, don't worry about them, let's go." ”

Then, the leading knight gave the order, and the two men returned to the ranks and escorted the carriage away without even apologizing.

"Cut, isn't it great. Baste waved his fist at the back of those knights in dissatisfaction: "Young master, why stop me, Luz and I can easily clean them up." ”

"Hey, don't the Cat-Folk scouts be able to stay calm in any situation? Raymond said angrily.

"But it's clear that those guys did it first, and they still speak so badly. Baste wanted to argue.

"You give me a lot of use here. Raymond knocked on Bathter's head: "Usually what do I tell you, when you encounter such a provocation, you must keep calm thinking and make judgments according to the situation at the time." ”

"Have you ever thought about what the consequences would have been if you had just started fighting? It wasn't something that would have been done by cleaning up the other party, and don't forget that we weren't in the Northern Wasteland now. ”

"It's... I..."

Raymond covered his forehead: "Oh my God, why do I have to bring an entourage and teach these common sense." Hurry up and mature me. ”

"Huh, wait, is that what Patriarch Katie had when he shoved you into me?"

"The young master is right. At this time, Lutz interjected: "That girl should be some nobleman, and if we rush to conflict with them, it will be very bad for us." ”

"Ah, you know that the young master is right. Baster made a strange face at Lutz in a strange voice.

Then before Raymond's hand was raised, she jumped away: "But they are too bullying, the young master just said hello to her, why do you want to do it to us?"

"This is the human world. Ignoring Bathter's actions just now, Lutz said indifferently: "Here, there is a huge difference in status between commoners and nobles, and even if you say hello rashly, it is sometimes a serious crime. I've seen this a lot when I've been an adventurer. ”

"Meow, what's going on?" Catwoman opened her mouth wide in surprise.

"Is this a hierarchical difference? But it's really pathological. Raymond couldn't help but touch his chin: "It looks like such a glamorous place, but there is such an unbearable side." ”

Luz nodded slightly: "This land is far richer and more beautiful than the northern wasteland, but there are some things that cannot be seen in orcs. ”

"Hmm... It was really an eye-opener. Raymond nodded to himself.

Although the orcs are also inferior and inferior, this kind of strict class where commoners can't even talk to the nobles casually is still unimaginable. On some levels, what humans who claim to be civilized do will make the orcs stunned.

"Where do you go next, young master?" asked Bathtel.

Raymond wondered, "Where else can I go, of course it's the town in front." ”

"Well, but what happened just now, if we go againβ€”" Bath said.

"Why? As soon as you get out of the northern heath, you become less courageous?" said Raymond.

"Of course not. Baster said hurriedly: "However, you are also our prince, and now you are being arbitrarily bullied by those people, I really don't think it's worth it." ”

Raymond laughed and said indifferently: "That kind of 'prince' in name only makes me feel uninteresting." If you have to do it, you should at least go to a more fertile place. ”

"Yes, yes. Baste immediately said excitedly: "Then let's take this as our goal, I will do my best to help the young master." ”

Then, she clasped her hands together and drooled longingly: "In this way, I can eat all the delicious food of the entire Mojina continent for free." Meow, I feel so happy. ”

"Yo, that's a great goal. Before he finished speaking, he saw Raymond smile and stretch out two fingers, gently pinch Catwoman's ears, and mention: "Then before that, I'll taste the taste of cat ears." ”

"Meow, yes, yes, it hurts, young master, it's not delicious, it's definitely not delicious!"

In Bathter's screams of pain, the group of three walked towards the town in front of them.
