episode_0026

We passed through two major cities and seven small and large towns before finally reaching Pelot after three days.

Although he had entered the Marquisate long ago, it took him a long time to get to the Queen’s hometown.

That means the territory is that wide… It makes sense for a Marquis among the five ranks.

Since he even produced a queen, his power must be impeccable.

‘If it takes three days by carriage, should I say it’s actually close?’

The running carriage stopped and someone knocked on the carriage door.

It was Dalot.

It took longer than expected, so they said they would start writing the sequel right away.

“Right?”

“Yes. If there is no special reason, Mama’s order is to arrive within 3 days. If you don’t go right away, it will be difficult to arrive before the sun sets. ”

Ugh…you’re annoying me.

Wherever I go, there are those in power higher than me who restrict my actions.

It’s a neighborhood where it’s really hard to live freely.

‘By the way, what should I do with that…’

Angelica Wind Knights.

Sometimes I wake up in pain, and most of the time I’m passed out as if I were dead.

Should I just find a place to stay and leave?

It hasn’t mattered so far, but if you want to meet the Marquis, you’ll have to go through security at least once.

How should I explain that then?

We can’t just let such a dangerous person run free.

But that doesn’t mean I can report him as a criminal who attacked me.

If we do that, we’ll have to hand him over to the Yeongji side.

I want to block at least the mana circuit, but I still can’t see the circuit no matter where I touch the guy’s body.

What is the alternative mechanism?

Should I drag it to a closet or attic?

-Rumble.

While my mind was in turmoil and I couldn’t find the answer, the carriage heading to the Marquis’ castle suddenly stopped again.

This time, even the noise of many people murmuring could be heard.

“What’s going on?”

“Shall I go out and check?”

“Okay. If something comes up, I’ll tell you.”

That was when.

-thud!

A noise like something flying and hitting the carriage.

It wasn’t even once or twice.

“Sigh…”

As I was sighing, I heard Dalot’s voice.

“Everyone, stand back! This carriage belongs to His Majesty the King. From this moment on, any attack on the carriage will be considered treason and will not be tolerated!”

“That’s funny! I know there’s a criminal inside who assaulted the princess!”

“That’s right!”

“Keep Adrian Floyd out of the city!”

“Wow!”

‘No, fuck….’

As soon as I heard it, I started cursing.

‘What kind of idiot spread rumors all the way here?’

The queen is resentful.

You told me in advance, right?

Why is public sentiment like this?

At least you should have stopped the rumors.

How can I become an instructor at a knight training school like this?

“Adrian…”

Delua also seems to have grasped the general situation and is looking at my mouth in a hesitant manner.

“Sigh… I can’t just kill them all.”

“Well, if you do that, you’ll really end up on the guillotine.”

“……”

Who really does that?

Delua That guy is making me look like a weirdo.

“Go out and chase them away.”

“Is that okay?”

“There aren’t many skilled people like you or Dalot. You’re called royal knights. If you show them your Aura or something, they’ll all run away.”

“Ah… yes.”

Deloitte said, “Okay,” and opened the door and went out.

‘Miss, what are you doing? Close the door quickly!’

I’m scared of people’s gaze for no reason.

‘Fuck, it wasn’t even my fault…’

What a mess this is because of that bastard Adrian.

“Ugh…”

Oh, fuck, seriously.

Why is this year coming to her senses at such a critical moment?

“Go to sleep. I’ll wake you up when I get there.”

“……”

“I can’t stand you running wild right now because I’m in a difficult situation. So just keep quiet. If you don’t want to die.”

“Ugh… Where are you taking me…?”

“Well, this is my first time in this neighborhood too.”

Before I knew it, it had become much quieter outside.

Looks like things are working out well.

“Ha…”

Somehow, I feel like Pelot and I don’t get along well.

If you look at this shit from the beginning.

* * *

“Joan! Did you hear that story?”

“Tell me the subject. I don’t know what you mean. Sarah.”

“The new instructor is coming!”

“Ah… that trash?”

“Trash? So the rumors are true?”

“Maybe?”

A bright new recruit at the Pelot Knights Training School.

Apprentice knights Joan and Sarah were talking about the recent rumors they had been hearing.

“Joan Joan. Adrian Floyd, that professor who was notorious at the Academy, right? I never received direct instruction from him, but rumors were rife. ”

“That’s right. They said you should never take that professor’s class because he’s a psychopath. They say he was not only venomous but also didn’t hesitate to insult and assault people.”

“But isn’t he an incredible person? Anyway, seeing as he rose to the position of court tutor.”

“That’s probably just a case of family connections. Then what’s the point? Even after entering the palace, you acted the same way as before and were eventually kicked out here. You fell completely from the top of the sky to the bottom. You were demoted. Your pride must have been really hurt by that appearance, right?”

Sarah tilted her head and asked.

“Then all our instructors were demoted?”

“Huh… Huh? Why is the story like that…”

“They said it completely fell to the bottom.”

“Ha… Haha… I took back what I just said! You must never tell the instructors! You must!”

“Well, what should I do… Ah! It’s Instructor Jeremy! It’s Instructor!”

At the appearance of Instructor Jeremy, who was in charge of the basic training of new recruits, Sarah waved excitedly while Joan looked around, sweat dripping down her face.

“What are you guys doing here?”

“We were talking about the new instructor.”

Joan sat up in surprise and glanced at Sarah.

Please don’t talk any more.

“Ah, that…”

“Do you know him, Instructor? Adrian Floyd…”

“I’ve only heard rumors.”

“Why on earth is someone like that coming to us?”

“I don’t know about that either.”

“You said you were demoted and came here, but is this place really that bad?”

Joan shut her eyes tightly at Sarah’s thoughtless remark.

“I don’t know who you heard that from, but it’s quite insulting.”

“That’s right.”

As the conversation between the two continued, Joan’s back became soaked with cold sweat.

“This is not such a place to be taken lightly! If that man dares to come here with such thoughts, he’ll really get hurt. You guys are the same. Those of you who have just entered the camp probably don’t know yet, but not just anyone can become a knight by receiving training, and not just anyone can train knights. Keep that in mind! ”

“Yes! Of course!”

“Just go away.”

“Yes! Instructor!”

Jeremy thought as he watched the two new recruits walk away.

‘Something strange is rolling in from somewhere and polluting the waters of the sacred training grounds.’

Even though he assaulted the princess of a country, he was not put on the execution stand.

I don’t know what trick they used, but they’re definitely going to make you regret coming here.

‘It seems like their reputation has already hit rock bottom, so sending one or two of those guys away isn’t a big deal.’

One corner of his mouth slightly turned upward.

* * *

“She is my disciple.”

“Disciple?”

“That’s short.”

“Ah, sir, excuse me.”

“She is my disciple. She is not feeling well right now, so I brought her here to recuperate while I was assigned here.”

Adrian, this kid has such a messed up head that when it comes to lies, they just flow out easily.

“Can I ask why you tied it up like this?”

“Because I have seizures sometimes. How much more should I explain?”

“Oh, no. That’s enough.”

The security check to enter the Marquis’ castle was over in an instant.

A large quantity of gold coins loaded onto a carriage.

A huge amount of potions.

And there’s even a suspicious woman who’s tied up and passed out.

There were more than one or two things that needed to be explained, but he was able to get through them simply with his smooth speaking.

“Delua. What’s with those eyes?”

“Oh, no. It just felt so great…”

“Do you think I’m being sarcastic? Should I give you a hand massage?”

“I’m not being sarcastic at all!”

Delua came to her senses and answered.

“So. What are you going to do now? Are you going back to the capital?”

“That’s…”

Suddenly starts crying.

I slept with him every single day since I came here.

Thanks to you, I wasn’t lonely anymore, but now it’s time to let you go.

Delua’s escort to me was only temporary.

His original role was as a knight guarding the queen.

“Actually, I don’t want to go either.”

“Oh, really?”

“Yes… but I can’t disobey Mama’s orders…”

I don’t know if it would be different for other people.

Regardless of the succession structure for the next throne, for now, he has pledged allegiance to Queen Emilia, one of the most powerful figures.

It won’t be easy to betray it now.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have a choice right now. It’s your life, so you have to decide.”

“I know.”

Leaving the gloomy Deloitte behind, I walked towards the Marquis.

‘You have to button up the first button well.’

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

Although this place is within the kingdom, it is strictly an autonomous territory, and at least within this region, the Marquis’ influence cannot but be stronger than that of the King.

So it has to look good.

Isn’t the director of the knight training school the younger brother of the Marquis you’re meeting now?

‘Public sentiment is one thing. What really matters is the Marquis.’

Since this is not a democratic country, I can tolerate being cursed at by the crowd.

It’s not like I have to show my face every day.

But the person you meet from now on is different.

Depending on the other person’s intentions, my daily life will go between heaven and hell.

‘Surely… he must have done something.’

I only trust Queen Emilia.

If just one letter full of warmth from his daughter had been properly delivered, the Marquis’ expression would have been very gentle.

“Your Majesty, Adrian Floyd has arrived.”

“Come in.”

I clenched my fists and entered the Marquis’ office.

however.

‘Fuck…’

It’s ruined.

From the look on his face, he’s treating me like trash.

No, not to that extent.

It was worse if not worse.

“Nice to meet you, Your Majesty the Marquis of Prominence. My name is Adrian Floyd. ”

The first words out of the Marquis’ mouth shocked and horrified me.

“What on earth is Emilia thinking? To think of sending that kind of trash here.”

“……”

“You… You dare touch my lovely granddaughter, Purua? What? A handcuff? Even if I chew on this, it won’t be enough! Whether it’s the king’s order or not, I’ll cut off your head right now! Come here right now! ”

“Your Majesty. Ji, please be sincere…”

The officials who had been watching rushed to the Marquis and barely managed to stop him.

If not, my second life would have ended today.
