Chapter 646 – 646. The Growth of Heroes (2)
The fight ended too suddenly and in an instant.
This is because the movement of the tentacles, which had been rampaging all at once, suddenly stopped and collapsed to the floor.
The movements that had randomly shook the inside of the anthill, as if in intense pain, came to a sudden halt.
Erin was immediately able to figure out the cause.
‘Hyun moved!’
Erin’s face, which had been filled with annoyance, instantly brightened.
She is thrilled that none other than her own husband has dealt with the monster that harbored her filthy feelings for him.
Realizing that the battle was over as all the tentacles stopped moving and fell limp, Erin immediately greeted the hundred demons she had summoned.
“Hundred Ghosts! Thank you so much!”
“If you call, I will always respond to the master’s call.”
Representing the other hundred demons, Arthur nodded slightly and received Erin’s greeting.
The White Ghosts, who had a relationship close to subordinates with their souls, were ready to respond to Erinn’s call at any time.
They were warriors who did not forget the battlefield even after death and wanted to continue the struggle by wielding weapons on the battlefield.
To the white ghosts, Erin is a woman who is like a benefactor who makes their wishes come true.
In addition, she is a being who has been given special privileges to bring back a body that had once died.
She was so sure of her master-servant relationship, and her loyalty was no small amount.
Erin felt the white ghosts’ attitude towards her favorably at first, but now she felt like her friendly uncles or her older sisters and brothers.
However, not all white ghosts became so friendly.
In particular, Siete, who had recently been resurrected as a white ghost, was still difficult to deal with.
“Bantling.”
“Yes, yes!”
She just called herself, but for some reason, her back straightened up and her discipline tightened.
Erin tensed as she answered the call from Siete, who squinted her eyes and looked at her suspiciously.
“Did he really ask you to call me?”
“Yes, of course!”
Erin said she lied without hesitation.
It was because she instinctively sensed that she would be scolded so hard that even her bones could not be pulled out if she said that she had summoned Shite on her own accord.
Selling the name of her husband, Eun-hyeon, was really sorry for him, but if you think of Te’s personality when she is poisonous to Eun-hyeon, it is the best way to avoid her scolding.
‘Hyun doesn’t seem to know… Master Master cares for Hyeon-i so much.’
It was a calculated calculation that if Eun-hyeon told her to do so, she would definitely not scold herself too much.
Erin quietly waited for the results.
“… Hmm.”
However, contrary to Erin’s expectations, Siete had already seen through her lies.
Although she is said to be the benefactor who resurrected her, she didn’t like it very much that she was a disciple of Eun-hyeon, who taught her swordsmanship.
No matter how much I think about it, I don’t feel like being a teacher taking orders from a disciple’s disciple.
‘I’d rather not know if it was him. This gore…’
Rather, if Eun-hyeon asks him a polite favor like an order, he can pretend to be able to do it.
That is close to the minimum Magi line that Siete can allow to her pupil, Eun-hyeon.
But Erin is a different matter.
She just didn’t like her.
It was the fact that Erin, whose age and experience were overwhelmingly small, was reluctant to take her orders, but it also included the fact that she was Eun-hyeon’s wife, which Shite was unaware of.
“… What good.”
After finishing the thought in her head, Xie Te nodded her head slightly.
“I-I really… ?”
Erin, worried that she might scold her, looked at her and asked.
It’s almost absurd to think that even though she’s staring at her like that, her lies haven’t been discovered.
“You can ask him directly. Whether it’s a lie or not.”
“…”
Erin flinched at her.
Cold sweat trickled down her forehead as she turned her head slightly to avoid Siete’s gaze.
‘It’s a big deal. What if I get caught lying?’
As much as the situation was the situation, she wouldn’t scold herself for Eun-hyeon lied to Sie-te, but her conscience pricked at the thought of Eun-hyeon being scolded by Sie-te for that.
Siete, on the other hand, was thinking in her head what she would ask of Eunhyeon in return for helping Erin and her people this time.
‘I guess I should say let’s eat and compete with swords.’
Recently, as her wife, Illyana’s delivery date is approaching, the disciple, who is very busy with various things at the same time, has a hard time seeing her face even once if he doesn’t find an excuse in this way.
‘Joy. A shameful fellow.’
Although she knew about Eun-hyeon’s situation, apart from that, she forcibly suppressed her regretful thoughts about Eun-hyeon, who didn’t care about her at all, into her heart.
“So? Where is the disciple now?”
“Ah, that… Now we are acting apart.”
Erin guessed the location of the monster controlling these giant tentacles.
Perhaps Eun-hyeon, who knocked down the main body, is there.
“Are you moving right away?”
“Hmm…”
Erin looked around her, hesitant to answer her.
“Ha…”
And when the battle was completely over and all the white demons except Siete were reverse summoned and retreated, Eira sat down on the floor and let go of her tension.
Cain still held her sword tightly and did not let go of her surroundings, but she was still breathing as if she had let go.
‘Uh? Someone… This…’
Erin heard her footsteps coming to her keen sense of herself.
The sound of footsteps running at high speed was the sound of one person.
And judging by the length of the steps, the interval of the sound, and the dull sound, someone was running towards this place with one person on their back.
The owner of the footsteps soon showed up.
“Hey, hey! Is everyone okay!?”
“Cha Han-seong? And…”
“Hanseong-ah… !? Uh… ?”
Erin and Eira were speechless for a moment at the same time.
Cha Hanseong, entering the anthill, had a fellow knight on his back.
It looked very natural and familiar, so Erin moved her gaze to Eira and looked at her.
Sure enough, Eira’s face hardened.
“… Are the two of you pretty close?”
When I subtly pointed out that it had become a relationship where I was able to carry him on my back naturally and allow contact between the opposite sex, the reactions of Cha Han-seong and Delia, who appeared together, were different.
“Yes… ?”
“Eh, Eira-senpai! Suddenly, the ceiling of the anthill collapsed, and I hurt my leg while rushing over! That’s why I was able to come all the way here thanks to senior Cha Han-sung carrying me!”
Unlike Cha Han-seong, who asked back with a questionable expression as if what was the problem, Delia, who quickly understood the situation in Eira’s hard face, had to explain the situation in a hurry.
No matter how isolated and the only person to rely on was Cha Han-seong, contact between the opposite sex was evaluated as quite promiscuous in this society based on fairly conservative ideas.
Cha Han-seong had nothing to do with it, but since Delia came from a noble family in the Kingdom of Pernias, she had no choice but to do so.
“Delia? What are you in such a hurry to explain? You know everything when you look at the situation.”
“…”
In response to Cha Han-sung’s attitude, not knowing what the problem was, Delia responded by saying it was absurd.
“My, please come down! I will walk alone now!”
“What? Are you okay? A leg injury…”
“Are you okay! If it’s really hard, I’ll ask Eira-senpai or that adventurer!”
If I continue to be carried on my back by this ignorant man here, I think I will be more suffocated and uncomfortable.
‘You’re stupid… That person too.’
Erin looked at Cha Hanseong from a distance and thought to herself.
It might be as good as Eun-hyeon, no, even worse than Eun-hyeon, considering that she rolled it in rice and ate it.
In this situation, even when she looked at Eira’s hardened face, she didn’t notice what was wrong and she didn’t notice her inner thoughts.
“… I will help you.”
In the end, Erin reluctantly stepped in and helped Delia, who was on the back of Cha Han-seong, to gloss over the situation.
Cha Han-sung bowed her head slightly, greeted Erin as if thanking her, and immediately approached Eira and Cain.
“Senior. Vice-captain, I have an urgent matter to tell you.”
Seeing Cha Hanseong explain with facial expressions that this is an issue that needs to be addressed urgently, Eira and Cain immediately put on serious expressions.
“… What happened?”
“In this anthill… There was a demon.”
Hanseong Cha talked about being attacked by demons while destroying the spawning grounds with Eunhyeon and Riod.
And even the story that Riod is left alone to deal with the devil.
“Father…”
“Captain…”
Ayra and Cain, who heard the news from Riod, muttered a little and showed complicated faces.
Eyra, naturally, with her worries about her father, Cain struggled as he came to terms with the fact that a demon lurked inside the kingdom of Pernias.
“Where is my pupil?”
Siete, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, asked Cha Han-seong.
“Eunhyeon-nim… On the way, he said he was moving alone and went somewhere. Maybe…”
Cha Han-seong looked around him and realized that a group of disgusting tentacles had been cleared in unison.
It wasn’t too difficult to notice that this situation was the result of Eun-hyeon’s move.
“And the message from the two of you was that you should prioritize destroying spawning grounds that are currently spread throughout the anthill and excluding all monsters.”
The best option is to clean up the monsters inside the anthill before they eat humans and grow further, before going out to the ground and attacking people.
Eun-hyeon and Riod ordered Cha Han-seong and Delia to inform all the raiding expedition members of this message.
“But…”
Upon hearing of the existence of the devil, Eira did not readily agree.
She wanted to go find her father as soon as possible, but she had regained her senses and did not strongly insist on going to find Leo de as before.
He was just conflicting between his daughter and the position of a knight.
“It’ll be fine if it’s him.”
Unexpectedly, Dosiete’s words persuaded her hesitant daughter’s heart.
“Oh, Master. Do you know Leo?”
Erin put on a slightly surprised expression, as if she hadn’t expected that Siete’s talk would come out about Liod.
She was with Riod and Cha Han-seong when Eun-hyeon showed Siete the sword called ‘Mistletoe’, which she made with great care, she was with Erin, but the time Siete competed with Riod with a sword was not in Errin’s memory. .
“He recently came to see me once. It was a rare well-trained swordsman. She is also a friend of the student, and she has a hard side, so there was a time when she taught me a few things. It is a thing.”
His talent in the field of swordsmanship is unrivaled by anyone else.
Even though he was over forty, his energy hadn’t diminished at all, and he was still looking up.
The individual’s talent was so outstanding that it was incomparable to others, and above all, Leo’s own goal was very clear.
Her longing to stand shoulder to shoulder with the man who is her friend and the object of her admiration is not satisfied even after holding the honor and title of the kingdom’s greatest knight, and pursues growth.
Giving praise to Eunhyeon, his one and only pupil, was a fairly generous compliment for a stingy Shiete.
“Master. Hyun didn’t compliment me that much…”
“I just said clearly that I have talent and I don’t have it. In the first place, my pupil is not the one who flies higher just because he is praised. Doesn’t the guy called her wife even know that?”
“Oh, I know!?”
Erin was furious at Siete’s nonchalant provocation that she seemed to know Eunhyeon better than she did.
