(Not enough hands…)

In the small one-horse cart, not only such thoughts but also a sigh that resembled a murmur escaped from my mouth.
Sera had asked me to return to Elena’s side as soon as possible, although I had received permission to go outside to repair my equipment damaged in the desert battle.
Sera and I were adoptive mother and daughter, but we were also related to the dark side of the state and the adventurers who were commissioned by them. Even without that, he was planning to return to Elena’s side, but the problem was the security system that would not allow him to leave the princess’s side even for a few days.
The biggest problem was Carla, who had no intention of harming Elena or Clara until she killed me, but the Royal Guard could not stop her capriciousness.
Carla was the Crown Prince’s fiancée and was considered quasi-royalty, so many of us in the Royal Guard, where there are many middle-class nobles, must have felt awkward about stopping Carla, the daughter of the leading court magician.
However, Carla’s combat power was seen as more of a threat than that. Carla was probably the strongest in the country, not only in the power of Divine Protection, but also in simple magic alone, which already exceeded that of her father, the first court sorcerer.
Carla’s outbursts have been allowed in the country because she was feared as a Royal asset and any attempt to assassinate her would cause tremendous damage.
That was why Sera wanted me, a “Dragon Slayer,” the only one who could stand up to her, to return as a deterrent.
I still did not have enough hands…. Even if I didn’t have enough strength, I would need someone who could be used as Elena’s aide and who would not be intimidated by Carla, a high-ranking noblewoman.
“Aria, did you say something?”
“Nope.”
I shake my head at the voice from the seat across from me in the carriage.
Theo, Sera’s son…in a manner of speaking, my younger brother, was accompanying me today as a chaperone. The errand was to the Adventurers’ Guild, but Jesha, who was supposed to go with me, was accompanied by Mira, who was supposed to be my educator the next day.
I didn’t really have a problem with being on my own, but for some reason Sera told me–
[Aria, you are considered a member of Her Highness the Princess’s entourage and the daughter of a baroness. This time, you should take Theo with you as your squire, thinking of it as a public exercise in walking outside.]
— I was told. Well, I don’t really feel the need to do so, but if it’s an order, I have no choice.
So now I was not wearing a worn leather one-piece dress, but rather the attendant’s uniform worn at the royal palace, with Theo dressed as a butler.
As it is….
“Is Theo good enough to take charge of that young lady?”
Theo was supposed to be the butler escorting the Melrose family daughter.
The Viscountess, who had the same name as mine, stood like a [heroine] that the woman was obsessed with, and I heard that she was hiding in the dungeons of Lester’s domain with the Crown Prince, his brother, and the grandson of the temple’s head.
I thought Theo would have accompanied the Viscountess if he were her escort steward, but did he come back first to report to the Prime Minister?
But Theo made a face of mixed dissatisfaction and dismay at my question.
“…They left me here.”
