Surviving a Harsh Fantasy with Cheat Items Chapter 77.3

Published at 8th of February 2022 11:18:20 AM

The moment the princess knight became enraged, her flaming armor flared up along with her fighting spirit which easily ignited the hood.

「Uwaaaa, it’s burning!」

「Kyaaaa!」

The princess knight’s scream was cute but that doesn’t change the fact that she’s annoying.

The wagon is already on fire which is dangerous so I escaped but took the princess knight with me too.

It didn’t take long for a wooden and cloth covered wagon to burn all over.

By the time Lyle-sensei rushed to cast water magic, it was already too late.

By the way, the horse’s reins snapped and the horse managed to run away from the wagon but it did not come back.

Only the charred wreckage of the wagon was all that remained.

Oh no….

「What? Do you think my fault?」

「No….」

Why am I even asking? Who’s fault is it other than you!

Me? Is it my fault? Well, certainly, I feel like I made a mistake for even entertaining this troublemaker.

「Are you going to compensate for the wagon?」

「Yeah.」

I wonder if this is a crime.

This is obviously arson, right?

「You’ll only pay? After scaring me like that?」

「No, I didn’t mean to…」

No, I know you didn’t intentionally do it but, you look cute when you cry.

It’s not anyone’s fault but the existence of that flaming armor which flares up when you’re getting emotional is not good. Maybe it’s not a magic item but a cursed armor.

The princess knight seems to have a weird sense of ethics.

She doesn’t want to be treated as an arsonist. She looked guilty and even the tone of her voice gradually dropped down.

「Ah….this wagon is full of memories」

「That’s why I’m going to compensate you….」

「No, you don’t have to. I originally bought it second hand and it’s already on the edge of its service life.」

「I’ll buy you a new one….」

I bought it a year ago with the first money I earned at the village of Lowgow and it has been my partner for all of my journey.

I’m glad I didn’t give it a name.

No matter how much you love something, the durability of goods won’t last forever.

While I was saying this sarcastically to the princess knight, I’m really seriously depressed.

「Master, the wheel can still be used as spares.」

The slave girls removed the burnt out hood, took the luggage inside, and remove the usable wheels.

Sharon, who carries a wheel on her arm said, “That’s why I told you not to get too attached to it…”.

I should have listened to Sharon’s advice.

I was wrong. I’m sorry.

「I wanted to use the rest as firewood, is it alright, my lord?」

I nodded reluctantly to Louise, who seemingly doesn’t care about anything in the world. She smashed the charred body of the wagon with her oricalcum sword.

She brought out a cauldron and set the wreckage on fire and began to cook the dragon’s guts.

That’s just right for drying the wet cargo.

I sigh as I look at the burning remnants of my memories.

「Hey, you’re Eleonora, right? Don’t be too depressed and eat too.」

「Thank you very much!」

As a female knight, Louise is someone who’s famous even in other countries which this princess knight might be idolizing.

Ah, Louise, you gave Eleonora the dragon breath bag….

Ah, the flame endurance of the princess knight goes up.

Even though I’m reluctant for her to level up, the existence of the princess knight is bad for the enemies.

There’s no point in building up my flame resistance any further but I also got some dragon guts stew from Louise.

I don’t know which part of the body this came from but it’s delicious with every bite. The spiciness is still intense though. My tongue is numb.

Maybe this is a good thing since Eleonora finally became a little more relaxed.

One of the wagons went up in flames which I think is a high price to pay.
