Blessing Of Yuri Goddess

Chapter 8: Chapter 7 - Riot in the Morning



As Mio and I approached the source of the sound, a man with a large body was seen slamming a table full of food and drinks.

Seeing the appearance of the man who looked like he was drunk and shabby, I kept a little distance from a distance to avoid trouble.

A fairly large sword was seen beside his hand. Judging from its size, the sword looked very heavy.

Is it a Claymore-type sword?

But, why did he lift that fairly large sword and point it at the girl before him?

Seeing the large sword that was getting ready to be swung, Mio suddenly ran and parried the swing of the large sword.

Tiiinng!

Bamm!

The swing of the large sword hit the ground, if Mio hadn't parried it then the sword would have hit the innocent girl.

Hearing the sound of the two sword swings, some thin dust began to scatter and cover the field of vision.

The people around also panicked when they saw the fight that suddenly happened. Mio and the man made enough distance to continue their fight,

"Are you okay?" Mio said to the girl who almost became a victim.

My nose suddenly smelled a very pungent aroma.

Ah! That's how it is. The man is drunk. This will be a futile fight because only violence can stop him.

"Mio.. he's drunk!" I said in a loud voice and slightly covered my nose using a handkerchief. The smell was very pungent and I didn't like it.

Hearing my voice, Mio took a posture that was ready to continue the fight.

"Drunk in the morning? This will be quite good training!" Mio smiled.

This was the first time I saw Mio smile like this. Mio seemed to enjoy this sudden fight.

I remember, if I'm not mistaken Mio did like to practice learning sword arts.

So.. Mio's abilities are quite reliable, right?

They fought again, the man swung his sword randomly but Mio managed to avoid it. The small slash launched by Mio made the man groan in pain.

The slash was very small but it injured the wrist holding the sword, it must have felt very painful and sore.

If this wasn't a fight between a drunk person and a woman who knew how to use sword art, it would be another story.

It could be said, this was a one-sided fight. The small slash launched by Mio made the man slowly suffer and lose control over his sword swing. The small blood that came out and wet his wrist made the man's hand movements weak. I could see his hand starting to tremble as he held the sword.

Why do drunk people always make other people bother?

From a distance, I heard the sound of horse hooves approaching. It seemed like the royal soldiers around were starting to approach. Mio who heard it wanted to end this pointless fight.

With agile movements, Mio ran to avoid the attack and gave the final attack in the form of a strong blow using the sword handle to the head.

Btaamm!!

Uh.. that blow sounded quite loud.

Is the man's head okay?

The man fell to the ground but got back up.

Seriously? He didn't lose to such a hard blow?

Once again, the man got up and swung his sword in all directions. Seeing his slashes that were like child's play, Mio parried them and attacked back.

One.. two.. and three counter slashes launched by Mio made the sword held by the man fly away.

"Give up!" Mio said in a threatening tone.

"Stop fighting!"

From behind me, I heard the sound of a female soldier getting off her horse.

From her voice, it seemed like I recognized this female soldier.

The man fell to the ground again and fainted, it seemed like this small fight was won by Mio.

"What's going on here?" the female soldier approached Mio.

Seeing her hand preparing to draw a sword, I rushed to Mio.

I stood in front of Mio and turned my back to the female soldier, "Good job, Mio."

"Eng? Who is this little girl?"

"Ah! It's been a long time since we met, Hilda-sensei!" I greeted the female soldier and showed my face covered by a white robe.

"Lily-sama!!" Realizing my presence, Hilda-sensei saluted me. Several other soldiers who came with Hilda-sensei also saluted me.

"Ah! Please raise your head, this is not the right time for that and it looks like he needs help" I pointed to the man who was defeated by Mio.

Hilda-sensei gave a hand signal to her subordinates to take care of the man's body and looked back at me. It seemed like she wanted to know what had happened here.

"Actually, what happened Lily-sama?" Hilda-sensei asked.

"Just a small incident. The man slammed the table filled with food and drinks and then tried to swing his sword at the girl." I pointed to the girl who almost became a victim.

"And.. a small fight in the morning could not be avoided anymore. As you can see, Mio was only trying to save the girl" I continued.

"It seems like she's drunk. Ugh! The smell is so bad!" I covered my nose a little again with a handkerchief.

"So that's it.. you guys please take this man to the detention room" Hilda-sensei ordered.

Eh? Is it this easy?

Did Hilda-sensei just believe what I said?

"And also.." Hilda-sensei's gaze was now observing Mio.

"She is Mio, maybe Hilda-sensei will be a little surprised when she sees her wearing ordinary clothes. Mio is my personal maid when in home," I continued.

"Oh! Your personal maid. I didn't recognize it. If Lily-sama wasn't here, I would have put her in the detention room too."

Yes, that might be true. If I wasn't here, maybe Mio would have been detained with that man. Sometimes, I forget that I am a noble child with great influence.

"Lily-sama, if I'm not mistaken Marquess Rommel is attending a religious ceremony at the temple. But, why is Lily-sama here?"

Religious ceremony? No wonder all the horse-drawn carriages disappeared.

"I went to buy a sword."

Hearing my answer, Hilda-sensei was a little surprised then smiled and laughed.

"Hahaha.. Lily-sama can joke too."

"I'm not joking, this happened because the day before my residence was attacked by a pack of wolves."

"Huh?" Hearing my flat answer, Hilda-sensei was surprised again.

Now, she started to look at Mio.

Mio who understood the flow of this conversation nodded and Hilda-sensei's expression turned pale.

It seems... the tragedy I experienced has something to do with Hilda-sensei.

"L-Lily-sama, was that wolf black?" Hilda-sensei asked.

"Yes."

Hearing my answer, Hilda-sensei knelt in front of me.

"Forgive us, Lily-sama! Because of our negligence in hunting the monsters and accidentally letting them escape. Lily-sama met them."

"It's okay, Hilda-sensei. No one was injured in that incident."

"Really? Did Marquess Rommel send his troops to hunt the rest of monsters?"

"No."

"Eh? Then... why did Lily-sama know that the monster was a black wolf?"

"Because at that time, I was walking in the garden and accidentally entered the forest and met them," I smiled slightly to reduce Hilda-sensei's tension.

But.. it seems.. this response is very bad.

Hilda-sensei looked back at Mio.

"That's right when we heard the howling of the black wolf. I thought of Lily-sama walking around the house. Because I felt a little uneasy I went looking for Lily-sama. Coincidentally, I met several knights who seemed to hear the same wolf howl. Until we finally entered the forest and found Lily-sama standing among a pile of black wolf corpses," Mio explained in detail.

"W-We are truly sorry, Lily-sama!!" Once again Hilda-sensei knelt in front of me.

However... Hilda-sensei lowered her body slightly so that it looked like she was prostrating herself in front of me.

I think... It's going to be quite a long morning trip to buy a sword.
