After Being Exiled From the Country, I Became the Fourth Enchanter in the World!

Chapter 13 Escape from Rosalta Kingdom

「Alex-san, good morning. …… I’m sorry, I overslept.」

「Don’t worry about it. By the way, you don’t look so good. Are you okay?」

Oh, it’s showing on my face, huh….

「I drank too many mana potions when I was doing a lot of enchantments yesterday…. Ah, this box is what I want to give to Esther. Only Esther can take out the contents of the box, so please tell him that too.」

Most of the people in the Kingdom of Rosalta are enemies after all….

The security measures are perfect!

「As for the reward… ah, I also said that I will help with the equipment cost, right? One gold plate, nine backpack-type magic bags, and nine pants with pocket-type magic bag… is that enough?」

「We’re obviously getting too much…. Well, we can’t afford to buy new equipment right now, so we’ll accept it gratefully. We’ll take care of the delivery. Luckily, the 『Sacred Flame』 will accompany us to the capital after they escort you, so we should be able to get to the royal capital unless something really bad happens.」

「That’s good! If you’re with an A rank party, you will be safe on the way for sure.」

Then, after a short conversation, Alex-san left.

As for me…… I holed up in the toilet for a while, then packed up and left the town.

After leaving the town and running along the road for a while, I found the tent of the <Sacred Flame>, so I asked them to take me to the border.

On the way, we were attacked by many monsters such as ogres, orcs, kobolds, and goblins.

We were able to fight them off without any problems, but I think merchants and low-rank adventurers might not be able to cross the border

「In the first place, there are hardly any adventurers of C rank or lower who wander around these remote areas~. Besides, large merchants who can do business across the country hire adventurers of B rank or higher for their own safety. And while there are only ogres and lower rank monsters along the roads, there are wyverns and griffons deep in the forests~. Sometimes they come out to the roads, and requests to take them down will be issued.」

I see.

If I were to encounter a wyvern by some chance, I will immediately run away.

If I try to fight, I think I’ll be paralyzed with fear even before I see the status.

…… Luckily, we didn’t encounter any powerful monsters on the way, and we were able to reach the border while the sun was still high.

「At last…. There are rumors that no one has been able to leave the country alive after being exiled…. I hope they’ll let me through….」

「It is okay. In the worst case, we will let you through with our authority. After all, an A rank adventurer is treated the same as a count.」

「That’s right~, and I, an S rank adventurer, am treated like a duke~」

「If I’m not wrong, the person in charge of border security is a viscount. So, there’s no problem!」

You three….

I’m very grateful, but… if you use that kind of power, I’m afraid it will become a big deal later, so if possible, I’d like to go as quietly as possible.

I’m no longer a noble, so I line up for the inspection for commoners.

Then, the members of the <Sacred Flame> also line up with me.

「I’m sorry for making you line up with me.」

「No problem. Let’s take it easy!」

…… After waiting in line for about an hour, our turn finally came.

My heart is pounding with nervousness……

「Show your ID! …… Huh? …… Don’t tell me, are you Jink Nonland?」

「I lost the 『Nonland』 name when I was disinherited, though. But yes, I’m that Jink.」

「I heard you left the royal city five days ago…. How could you get here so quickly? Come with me to the guardroom!」

This is bad… what should I do…

「Hey, stooop! The sentence for his exile only says 『Leave the country within the specified date and never set foot inside the Kingdom of Rosalta again』, right? What reason do you have to take him to the guardroom?」

「You bastard, you dare to talk back to a knight like me!?」

「And you dare to talk back to an S rank adventurer like me? I can punish you right here for being rude, you know?」

「Please excuse me! I will call my superior right away, so please wait a moment!」

When Karen-san threatened him in a low voice with a guild card in hand, the soldier said so and dashed off into the fort.

When I look at Karen-san, she’s smiling while making a V-sign, but… it doesn’t look cute at all after listening to the threat just now.

「I have a misanga bracelet that I enchanted with recovery magic yesterday, should I give it to you later? My recovery magic level is low, so you can’t expect much from it, though.」

「I want!」

「…… Then, I will leave the negotiation to you.」

「Okay!」

「If it seems impossible for Karen, I will change places with her right away.」

…… Their ages are reversed, but is Will-san her guardian or something?

A few minutes later after Karen-san (and for some reason Will-san as well) became motivated, a pig… I mean, the Viscount arrived while being out of breath.

「W-Well, if it isn’t the Sacred Flame. It’s been a few days, hasn’t it? It seems that my subordinate was being rude…. I will punish him later, so please forgive him. By the way, could I ask something? Why are the members of the Sacred Flame, who came to our country as delegations of the Kingdom of Quall, together with Jink, the shame of our country? Despite being born into the Nonland family, the most prestigious spearman in the Kingdom of Rosalta, he’s a talentless, incompetent person with bad behavior, and on top of that, he was blinded by the wealth of the Nonland family and tried to poison the head of the family. It’s unthinkable for the members of the Sacred Flame to be together with such trash….」

Hee…… I was falsely accused of attempting to murder the head of the family, huh?

I had a brief father-son conversation with the head of the family in the dining room before I left, though….

「No problem. We’re escorting him to the Kingdom of Quall while knowing that he’s being exiled from the country. By the way, we’ve told your subordinate before, but his sentence says that he has to leave the country within the specified date and never set foot inside the Kingdom of Rosalta again. Why are you trying to detain him even though he’s just trying to leave the country accordingly?」

「It’s because the time it took him to reach the border is obviously not right….」

「Then, there’s no problem. We spent three days with him, and it’s possible enough with his ability. We the Sacred Flame guarantee it.」

「…… I see. I don’t understand, but if everyone says so, then let’s leave it at that. …… I am very sorry for taking your time. …… If possible, please come to the checkpoint for nobles next time.」

「Jink-kun lined up at the checkpoint for commoners, so we just followed him this time. After sending him to Quall, we’ll go through the checkpoint for nobles next time.」

After Will-san brilliantly defeated the pig… the Viscount, we passed by him, whose face was bright red, and entered the border town Qualta.
