“Dwin~!”

A light weight.

And a charm that no one can show me.

“Seth…?”

“Aaagh!!!”

Isabel, who was talking to me, burst out screaming.

It was because Seth suddenly appeared out of thin air, hugged my back, and looked at Isabelle who was sitting next to me.

“I have to go for a checkup!”

“What’s going on!”

At the sound of Isabelle’s screams, apprentice knights came from all directions.

This was the same for assistant technicians and training directors.

People’s nerves were on edge because of Immortal.

But in this situation, screams echo?

I felt like a shepherd boy.

Seth rubbed his cheek against me, enjoying the reactions of those people.

“Seth.”

“Huh?”

“First, get permission. Could you please stay a little further away?”

Seth rolled his eyes and looked at the training director.

I pushed Seth away, stood up, and looked at the training director.

Because of his previous light behavior, the training director appears to be reluctant to meet Seth.

“Director Yangseong. Can I come after a physical examination?”

“Sure. I hope this time I don’t show the same disheveled appearance as before.”

“I will keep this in mind.”

“Okay?”

Seth grabbed my waist and started pulling me into the torn void.

The last thing I saw was Isabel’s face, full of heartache.

“Why on earth did that person come to the military…”

The torn void slowly closed.

Just with that, the world becomes quiet, and the smell and humidity in the air change.

“···Have you prepared it?”

“Yes. There it is.”

It was a transparent, small perfume bottle.

He handed Seth a perfume bottle filled with sacred blood.

Seth made it all into pills and divided the Precious Blood into small pouches.

That’s a total of eighty-seven, three each.

“Now, take it off.”

Seth started taking off his clothes and throwing them away.

“Why are you so impatient?”

“You have changed. If you fall for a pretty fox like Edeline…”

“Yes?”

“Oh, I don’t know.”

Seth grunted and started taking off my armor one by one, wearing only his underwear.

What a consistent person.

Thanks to you, my doubts were resolved.

“If I were held prisoner by the enemy, would you still come to see me like this?”

“Then are you going to pay money to buy it?”

“Yes?”

You buy me?

It seems that the rest of the world doesn’t understand why I have questions.

“A prisoner of knight-level worth is not an enemy, it is money.”

“Do you not kill them or use them as bait for traps?”

Seth snorted.

“Not all people in the world are as extreme as you.”

“The currency is probably Zenarius.”

“Yes. People are having fun buying magic tools with ransom money.”

More than three weeks have already passed since Lamia left to say hello to Shir.

By now, Shir would have heard that I was at the Great Wall.

There must be only one reason why Lamia found out that I was ‘Ri Si-hyeon’.

“Is there any medicine that eliminates body odor?”

─Smell.

It’s because of the smell of luminous flowers.

Luminous flowers are not that rare to see in Yunaira, where there are many tomb trees.

At the very least, you need to get rid of body odor.

“You know that knights can’t use magic tools.”

“You just need to be clever and make it into something that isn’t ‘magic’.”

Seth laughed and looked at me as if it were funny.

“Sihyeon, you must not be mistaken. The blessings bestowed on your body were not received because you wanted to receive them.”

Seth took off my jacket, got close to me, and buried his nose into the back of my neck.

It was an act that was close to a routine.

“You have had your body altered. Like putting pretty clothes on a doll.”

Seth pressed his face against me.

“What does the white wolf know?”

···Don’t enjoy it.

Actually, it seems like the person involved is going to die of shame.

“I’m serious. You’ve cleaned my brain well so far, right?”

“It’s just that the chemicals in your body affected you, right?”

“That’s brainwashing.”

“No. That’s judo, not brainwashing.”

Empty! Bang!

Seth roughly throws away my armor.

“If it weren’t for Dantalian, you would have already been the White Wolf’s favorite doll.”

I see

However, there are more than one or two issues.

“No. Shir isn’t that gloomy.”

“If Venus had you, she would have whispered to the white wolf. He said he would give you as a gift.”

Seth looked at me with playful eyes, and then showed a mischievous smile as if he was enjoying my reaction.

“No? No one can stop the white wolf now. I have the power to do that. And the one who freed the shackles that bound the white wolf… the agent of Venus, was none other than you.”

“···What shackles am I taking off?”

The corners of Seth’s mouth began to rise.

“You asked Venus for a favor. Do you know that it was a ‘petition’ from someone who had the right to speak, an agent of a servant who maintained neutrality and had spiritual absoluteness?”

“···A petition?”

“Okay. You, who worked for Venus, made a suggestion to Venus.”

“I’ve never really worked for Venus.”

“But you broke Amor’s shackles.”

I broke Amor’s shackles?

“Give the representative of Venus, who is still strong enough, the power to protect himself?”

Seth laughs.

Eventually, like an adult looking kindly at a child who has sinned, he patted my head and began to undo my belt.

“How did Venus use your sincere suggestion? What do you think happened to Venus’ agent with that suggestion?”

···There are so many things that are holding us back.

It was clear that Amor was more feared than any other servant agent.

“Sihyeon. You created an immortal that even a servant could not do.”

“No. I don’t think it’s my fault.”

“What does the person standing at the highest point in the world, who cannot be suppressed by anyone, think? How do you satisfy your needs and get what you want?”

The contrived tone of voice started to give me goosebumps and chills.

Soon the green eyes swept over me.

“Don’t forget that the reason the blessings haven’t left your body is because the Absolute is still holding his breath and coveting you. ···And.”

Seth laughed at me.

“What if I die because I’m scared? Put it back up quickly.”

Seth’s hand is massaging ‘me’ as he looks at me as if it’s ridiculous.

okay. died today

I was lost in thought while holding Seth, who was twitching.

I loved Sur.

However, we couldn’t be together because we were too young and immature.

Afterwards, I realized that the love Shir felt for me was fake.

That’s why I vowed never to show myself in front of Shir, so that he wouldn’t feel fake love again.

─My resolution was never wrong.

When I think about it now, it is clear that I was at the center of Shir’s life. He committed his first murder for me, and shed his own blood to the point of anemia for me.

‘My last six years have been for Sur.’

So there is no need to feel guilty.

As a result, Shir became the absolute ruler of Pangea, right?

-Your work is done.

Now you just have to kill Harold and return to Ethelyn.

“···You beast――!”

Seth made a cute noise and bit my arm.

“Ah! Why are you like this all of a sudden?”

“It could have been better!!!”

okay.

It would have been better if I did drugs.

ah! it hurts!

“Instead of these peripheral pleasures, how about trying to obtain mental pleasure?”

“Hmph! There are idiots who say things like that. All good things are good, but does that matter?”

In an instant, I became an idiot.

“···You fought against Immortal, right?”

“Yes.”

“Immortals will not attack you for a while.”

Until you leave the knight training center. I guess this is it.

“Well, ”

“You know? To become a driver, you must have at least half a year of practical experience.”

“Yes.”

The day will come when we will be deployed to all fronts and wield our swords.

And when that time comes, Shir will definitely approach me.

Leading an army of immortals.

“Thanks for the warning.”

“It’s a separate thing.”

I just don’t understand.

Why did they kill dozens or hundreds of people just because of me?

‘What did I say?’

At least the Shir I knew was not that kind of person.

He was a weak child who broke down after committing his first murder.

Does the view really change that much when you stand high up?

To the extent that they can eat people so easily?

“Haa···.”

Sur began to feel very unfamiliar.

* * * * * *

Isabel rolled her eyes and started walking towards me at a fast pace.

“Why are you so late?! I thought you deserted!”

“Yes?”

“Before, it only took a few hours, right?! Why didn’t you come back for half a day this time?!”

“I was hit by Lamia and my breastbone caved in. Because of that, I underwent a detailed examination.”

Is it not enough?

Isabel tried to say something more, but ended up swallowing her words, and then turned around and headed toward her dorm.

It was already dark outside the window.

That’s right.

It’s too late.

I headed to the administration office, knocked on the door, and went straight inside.

“It’s late.”

Director Yang Yang was looking up at me with fierce eyes.

“Sorry. I had to undergo a detailed examination because my sternum had collapsed.”

When I deliberately exaggerated the name of the disease, the director of the training seemed like I was going to do that.

“Okay. Was there any problem?”

“There was none.”

“Obviously… they said they changed all the bones to iron.”

My bones are iron?

It was bullshit that I had never heard of.

“Don’t overdo it. Go back to your accommodation and prepare for bed.”

“···Yes.”

The only thing that immediately came to mind was Seth.

It seems like he told a bizarre lie.

I put down a small leather pouch on the desk.

“This is the loot taken from Immortal.”

Director Yang Yang, who checked the contents, looked at me intently.

“What is this?”

“It is a reversible medicine.”

“No bribes accepted.”

“If Director Yangseong hadn’t helped me, I would have definitely died. And didn’t you suffer a fracture in your left hand?”

“Take it.”

I didn’t say anything and just looked at the director of the training camp.

The director of the training camp also stares at me without saying a word.

“In addition, I plan to distribute three equally to my classmates and teaching assistants. Don’t you know? This is also to ensure silence.”

The upper level collects all of the immortal blood and stores it for themselves.

In reality, it’s either sold or taken by high-ranking officers.

“There is no need to cover my mouth.”

“Isn’t that right? There is no one who can claim ownership of this.”

“···Yes. You’re right.”

Director Yang Yang shoved one pill into his mouth and threw the rest in the trash can.

‘···It’s such a shame.’

In some ways, he is a truly upright person.

“···Let’s go.”

“Go in and sleep.”

When he looked at me, he started reading the report that the training director had been reading.

What a great person.

The medicine that is given back to someone who has been stabbed by a sword or arrow is no different from treasure.

When I returned to my lodgings, the eyes of the trainee technicians and training technicians turned to me.

“Why are you so late?”

“Why? It’s because of this.”

As soon as I said something meaningful, everyone turned to look at me.

When I took out the leather pouch, the apprentice knights stared at me as if asking what it was.

“It’s a reversible medicine.”

“But, a medicine that will turn things around…?!”

“What, what?!”

I handed leather pouches to each of the apprentice knights.

Greed shined on his face, which was as hard as stone.

“This means dividing everyone equally into three.”

“It’s a lifeline that can keep you alive even if you get stabbed in the heart.”

“If you steal anything, you will be stealing the life of your classmate.”

“You don’t want to be like Laquilo to me, do you?”

He gave a warning with a hint of power that could crush people.

Greed fades into fear and disappears.

Lastly, he gave the leather pouch to Ali and Bessie.

“We are knights. That’s a bribe.”

But they both rejected my gift.

“This is made from the blood of the saint that the Immortal possessed.”

“It would have been correct for the military to retrieve it, but the incident was buried, right?”

“There is no one to claim ownership. Keep it as a daily medicine.”

Ali accepted it with a smile, but not Bessie.

I forced Bessie’s hand, which wouldn’t open until the end, and gave it a squeeze.

Bessie reluctantly accepted the Precious Blood.

Even though he had a stern face, his true intentions were good and he didn’t know what to do.

Thanks to this, I almost laughed.

“The reason I am saying this in a public place is because the moment anyone gets caught up in this matter and opens their mouth, everyone’s blood is transferred to the military. If you think about it objectively, this has no effect as a bribe.”

The gazes of the struggling trainees turn to me.

It looks like he still doesn’t understand the situation.

After some time, you will understand.

“Anyone who speaks about medicine or Laquilo is ruining the future of apprentice knights and taking away the medicine that is given to everyone.”

This was a small ‘gift’ for unity.

“I warn you again, do not try to reveal what happened or try to steal the medicine. I will definitely find you and make you like Laquilo.”

Only then did the greed and greed that remained in people’s eyes subside.

I’m so glad we don’t have to see each other’s ugly sides.

Only then was I able to close my eyes comfortably.
