by admin“Yep. I’m here, Master.”
A girl responded to Vyrn’s words with an expressionless face.
A strange girl in this cabin.
No matter how much I look at it, it doesn’t seem like a dream related to Princess Claudia.
Vyrn rolled his eyes to figure out what kind of dream he had entered.
A girl dressed like a hunter, with two small horns on her head, and a small cabin where the two seemed to live.
I really don’t know.
Where on earth is this?
“Did you do the task well?”
“Yep.”
The girl answered quietly.
Ching!
The next moment, the girl revealed herself in front of Vyrn and swung a dagger towards him.
But Vyrn’s body caught the dagger with his hand.
“It’s dangerous to wield a weapon indoors, Bell.”
“Tch.”
The girl, who was sticking out her tongue, put the dagger back into its sheath.
What is this?
Did I see it wrong?
Wasn’t it between master and disciple?
“If you want to kill me, you’re far from it.”
“Hmph! Don’t worry, I’ll kill you soon enough!”
What kind of relationship is this?
Vyrn was perplexed by the bizarre relationship between the two.
Gulp
Vyrn picked up the teacup on the table and drank from it again.
“The material of the dagger seems good, since you brought it.”
“…Not taking it?”
“It’s not for me. It’s for you to use.”
“For me?”
“Yeah. You wanted to get stronger, didn’t you?”
Vyrn got up from the dining chair.
“You’re going to teach me how to handle the dagger?”
“That’s right.”
“…If I teach you, you’ll use it to kill me.”
The girl looked up at Vyrn as if threatening him.
“Huh. If you can, go ahead and try. I’m looking forward to it.”
A disciple… but trying to kill the master?
And yet, the master expects the disciple to try to kill him?
I have no idea what’s going on.
Vyrn had expected to have a dream related to Claudia, but due to the completely unfamiliar dream, he was confused.
For several months, the physical owner of Vioss taught the girl how to handle weapons, including daggers, how to survive, and techniques for real combat.
Chaeyang
The girl facing Vioss with a sword.
Thud
Vioss kicked the girl’s stomach.
“Ugh!”
She flew and hit a tree.
“I told you not to fight honestly. You’ll just die in real combat.”
Crackle
Seeing the girl trying to get up but hesitating, Vioss lit a cigarette and took a drag.
“Sigh… Killing me is even more unreasonable.”
Several months of journey.
Vioss observed the long journey like a fast-flowing panorama.
Previous dreams were short and woke up quickly.
But why is this dream so long?
While the girl rested in bed, Vioss’s body, which vomited blood while taking medicine every time the girl slept, showed that his life was not long, even to Vioss, who knew nothing about medicine.
Is he going to watch her until he dies?
While the girl lay in bed recovering, Vioss’s body left the cabin and went to a nearby castle.
Entering through an alley to a remote place with a small door.
Knock knock
When Vioss knocked on the door, the peephole above the door opened.
“Who’s there?”
“It’s me.”
“What’s up? V, is it you?”
Creak
“What brings you here this time?”
The bald, burly man opened the door and greeted Vioss.
“The medicine isn’t working. I came to ask for stronger medicine.”
“Oh dear. Can’t be helped. Come in. You’ll have to wait.”
Vioss passed through a long corridor into a small room at the end.
A mysterious atmosphere filled the room.
Rare and bizarre items such as small animal skulls, stuffed creatures, and monster secretions were scattered around.
“V. You’ve come.”
A purple-haired beauty greeted Vioss.
“Came for medicine?”
“Yeah. The medicines I got last time had no effect even when taken.”
“….sigh. V. What did I say last time?”
“I told you not to use magic anymore. I said there isn’t much time left.”
“You used magic.”
…No, I didn’t.”
“Don’t change the subject! You said you’d only stay in the cabin! Why has your condition deteriorated so much!”
“Yeah.”
“That woman?”
….”
“Right. Ugh.”
The witch with purple hair took out a cigarette and asked.
“What’s with that woman anyway? Originally, you got sick from rescuing her from the cult of demon worshippers’ lair!”
“I need a light too.”
Versed fumbled in his pocket and pulled out a cigarette.
“Tsk! Do you want to die of illness tomorrow?”
….”
Versed quietly put the cigarette back in his pocket.
“Ugh, seriously! Just leave it be! She should be grateful just because you saved her! I remember seeing her before, she didn’t even know how to be thankful when you saved her, saying she would kill you or something!”
….When I’m gone, what will happen to that kid? Because of the horn they’ve been carrying since childhood, the poor child was meant to be used as a sacrifice by the demon worshippers. If I’m gone, those strange people will surely try to use or harm that kid.”
“What does that have to do with you! It’s not even your child! Why are you trying to use what little time you have left for that woman! Are you trying to reminisce about your childhood self again?”
….”
“Sigh.”
“If you sigh a lot, your skin ages faster.”
“Enough! The Grand Witch doesn’t age!”
“Despite that, your face seems heavily made up…”
Tap tap
“No! I said! Stop it!”
The witch struck Versed’s head several times with her staff.
“Ugh. Why am I taking care of this kind of person.”
“Anyway, medicine is needed. Medicine to alleviate the current symptoms.”
“Why would that be necessary? Is there a fight?”
….”
“You won’t tell me anything again? Really. If it weren’t for you!”
Ughhh
After messing up her own hair several times, the witch snapped her fingers.
Snap
Then a small space opened in front of her.
The witch took out a small vial from the space.
“Here.”
Versed received the vial from the witch.
“This is the strongest potion you can make. If he takes it, the symptoms of his illness will be completely suppressed.”
“Thank you.”
“But that’s not the end. This potion is for terminally ill patients. I’ve said it before, but if you want to die peacefully, don’t use magic. Understand?”
“I understand.”
It doesn’t matter.
Just hold on for one more night.
“Ugh. If only I could talk.”
After bidding farewell to the witch, Versed left her hideout.
“This will probably be the last time I see her.”
Two tears ran down the witch’s cheek.
“…You bastard.”
* * *
Crunch
Versed, back at the cabin, swallowed the liquid from the vial.
Tonight
It’s the time when those guys who are after him will come.
Information obtained from a reliable source from his past connections.
Versed tore up the floor and took out his equipment.
Clank
It’s been quite a while since I’ve been fully armed like this.
After making all the preparations, Versed looked at the sleeping girl on the bed and then left the cabin.
“Silence.”
Closing the cabin door, Versed placed a simple spell on the cabin.
Creak
Creak
Leaning against a tree, Versed waited for a long time until he heard the sound of dozens of knights approaching.
“There.”
The blond man at the forefront of the knights called out to Versed.
“Are you the owner of this cabin?”
“And if I am?”
“We’re looking for a horned girl. We already know she’s inside this cabin. Hand her over now. If you hand her over peacefully, we’ll spare your life.”
Spare my life, huh?
He doesn’t seem like the type to keep his word.
“If I refuse?”
Shing
The knights drew their swords.
“If you insist on shaking hands, then so be it.”
Growl
The blades of the knights were unsheathed.
“As expected, they are the imperial knights. They all seem to be highly skilled.”
Even if they are descendants of the demon king, sending this level of power just to capture a small and fragile girl?
This crazy emperor.
“Attack!”
At the command of the leading knight, the knights rushed forward in unison.
Crack
“Ugh!”
“Snap!”
Then, a multitude of large thorns sprang from the ground, piercing the bodies of the knights.
“This is… ”
As about ten knights became unable to fight, the bewildered knights fell back.
“I welcome you.”
To my domain.

Thud
Thud
Thud
“Ugh… what is this?”
The girl woke up, rubbing her eyes at the continuing vibrations.
“…Master?”
