154-Suke, Kaku?




 
 The rocky man comes out as skeevy and we talk about it for a while.

 Then I finally understood the situation.

''........You mean your name is Skeletor?''

What was the name Skeletor?

'No! I'm not a skepler! Skeletons!

 Me and Roomba asked, and the skeletal man reiterated strongly.

 The volume of his voice caused me and Roomba to frown.

 This man's voice is so loud, it's a bit noisy when he's around.

''What the hell, he's a pervert anyway.

Rude! No! The name doesn't mean that kind of pervert. It's meant to help people! Don't make a crude mistake!

 I see, so Skeebee's name is Sukebe.

 It's a little hard to understand if you say it out of the blue....

''Well, well, well, Sukebe-senpai. You are from a foreign country, so you don't have to be so angry.

'Skeletons! Make sure you're de-equipped!

 As Roomba and I listened to the aide's words with a complicated look on our faces, a man in a light blue kagura suit interrupted us.

 I looked over at him and saw that he was a somewhat neutral-looking young man with his hair cropped at the shoulder.

 It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for, because it's very easy to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

''Who's this guy?''

 I ask with a somewhat hopeful look on my face.

 Earlier I got a pervert that didn't make sense, but this time I thought it was decent.

 I hope the name is at least as close to that as possible, even if it's not Takenouchi.

'I'm sorry, but I don't have a name that close to the person in the story you mentioned, do I?

It's okay! If you can call me Mr. Kaku! Come on, you can tell me your name too!

 When the young man chuckles and says this, Spring, who has been sorting, looks miffed and taps his hip.

 Then the young man gave a soft smile as if he couldn't help it.

If you say so, Lord Haru. It's nice to meet you, I'm Kakuemon Hyodo. Harume-sama is happy to have Kaku-san call me now.
I am.

Who the hell are you? What kind of feline robot is that? Bring out the ronin!

I don't know what this feline robot thing is, but I'm afraid we don't have anyone like that on our side, so you'll have to forgive me.

 Kakuemon replies with a chuckle and doesn't seem bothered by it.

 According to Mito Gold, Kaku is said to have a serious personality, but I don't sense that at all from the person in front of me.

 In fact, Sukebe seems to have a more serious personality from his tone of voice.

'....Hey, Haru. It's true that these two can be called Suke-san and Kaku-san, but wasn't there someone with a better name?

'It can't be helped. Other than these two, I didn't have any other subordinates that I could call Suke and Kaku.

 When I turn a jitzy gaze at him, Haru also replies in disapproval, as if he was aware of it.

 Well, it's amazing that there was someone from among my subordinates that I could conveniently call Suke and Kaku-san.

 It's impossible to find someone with the same name as the character in Mito Gold perfectly, isn't it?

''I see. Whatever their names are, as long as we can call them Suke and Kaku-san, it's fine.

That's what I'm talking about!

 When I say this comfortably, Haru laughs with the same carefree expression on her face.

''........I've been wondering since earlier, what a mouthful you are to Haru-sama! Who the hell do you think this man is!

'Hey, Mr. Skeletor! I told you many times yesterday that that line was for chastising the scoundrels!

Mmmmmmmm!

 Suke looks frustrated when he is scolded for not being able to disobey his master, Haru.

 Haha, it seems a bit different from Mito Gold, but it's nice to be able to naturally say important lines with dignity.



 ◆

 When Roomba and I introduced ourselves again to Kaku and Ske, Haru said to us with crinkled eyes
I was.

Al! Let's go to town today! Discipline and convert the evildoers in this town! Preferably one with some power!

 'Ske, I thought you would do something like that from the fact that you have Kaku in tow.

''I mean, Spring says, but is that okay?''

Well if anything happens, we'll protect you, Lord Haru.

Yes, I'm sure it'll be fine, since Haru-sama's parents have already given their approval.

 When I asked Suke-san and Kaku-san, Spring's bodyguard, they answered that simply.

 I'm sure they have a solid bodyguard in place in the city as well, since they have obtained permission from Haru's parents.

 Then there is nothing for me to worry about.

You'll be able to find out if your bodyguard, Suke and Kaku-san, say so. But, Spring. Do you have an important inroads to make a name for yourself?

 An important scene for the Lord Chancellor is to show more power over the evil powers, to make them fall down. At the very least, he needs to have the prestige to be able to surpass at least a certain amount of authority.......

''Ah! I've got something to replace the Inroku! That's it!

 When I ask, Haru takes out something black and gold from her pocket with a big smile on her face.

 It was the same as the Japanese crests on the backs of Kaede and Suke and Kaku, with a softly spreading golden flower and a golden circle surrounding it.

 It was different in design from the Mito Golden Inroku, but it was no less dignified and elegant.

 While I was looking at it sullenly, Suke and Kaku let out a panicked voice.

''Wait, Princess--not Haru-sama! That's not the case over there!

'Master Spring, please bring out the affordable Inroku that you mentioned yesterday.

Hmm? Oh, it's true! You made a mistake!

 Haru pockets the Inroku that Ske and Kaku-san pointed out to me and shows me the Inroku.

 Now, Suke-san almost called Haru a princess-sama........

 Do they call the daughters of lords the princesses here? Just as a nobleman's daughter is called a daughter of a nobleman in a kingdom.

 And what's an affordable inkpad?

It was the right thing to do!

 As I'm thinking about this, Haru once again brings out the Inroko.

 The overall shape is the same as the previous Inro, a square size that fits in the palm of your hand. It's black and gold-based, and you can see the wild water dragons that look like shrine decorations.

 It is not as glamorous as the first one I showed you, but this one is as powerful as the first one.

 When I was staring at it intently, Suke looked into the Inroku and coughed.

''Buchou! Ha, Master Spring! That's Inro from Mr. Ryujiro! And where did you get that, so!

'We had Uncle Ryujiro yesterday! I tapped him on the shoulder and asked him if he had an Inroku, and he was willing to lend it to me!

That man is still sweet on Master Spring.

 Haru says this innocently, and Kaku says it with a wry smile.

 I don't know who Uncle Ryujiro is, but I have a feeling he's a pretty big deal. It doesn't seem like an affordable Inro, but is it okay to borrow an Inro from such a big guy? But we've got to show prestige, and it's good to have a big power behind us.

We've got the Injuns in place, and we're going to town, Al!

Oh, wait a minute. Where are Shuichi and Roomba?

 I turn back to Shuichi and Roomba as Spring takes my hand.

'I don't really know what Mito Gold is, you know. If I could, I would practice with the rumba again today.

Oh? If you're staying, I'll go with you. And I don't know what Mito gold is either. Al, come back at the right time when you're done with your business.

 Shuichi and Lumumba, who didn't know much about Mito Gold, answered simply with a wave of their hands. Apparently, the two of them are going to remain at the shrine.

 I would like to tell Lumumba what happened to my bodyguard, but it seems that Suke and Kaku-san are there, so there is no problem. It seems that Kagura itself is not a country where security is bad to begin with.

 Because today is the last day, there may be a feeling of wanting to practice to the fullest with Shuichi.

 I have to say goodbye to Haru when I have had a lot of fun today....

 As I was thinking about this, my right arm was pulled hard by Haru.

"Al, what are you just standing there in a daze? Let's get down the stairs quickly!

Wait, wait! The stairs here are so steep, I'm afraid to run down them like that!
