Chapter 878 – 878. Recognition of Knights (4)
There was no other way to explain it than that when Riod and Theresia got married, it was truly the biggest ordeal of his life.
One of the heroes who put an end to the catastrophe that swept the continent.
The best article that can’t be compared to others.
Other than that, various modifiers followed Riod and gave him numerous honors and glory.
But even so, it was not easy for him to marry the woman he loved and start a family.
It was because the gap between herself and the woman who harbored feelings of love that she had never felt in her life was so great.
Riod was an honorable knight who held the title of a hero admired by all the people, but a man named Riod Olivion, who belonged to the framework of society called the kingdom, was too weak.
His skill and honor certainly became the starting point for imprinting his existence in the aristocratic society, but the high-ranking aristocrats in the kingdom did not welcome the appearance of a newly emerging aristocrat.
A man named Riod was a menace to them.
He’s a dangerous man who could one day rise above and take their place.
So I kept him in check and deliberately despised him.
On the other hand, they tried to recruit him so that he could belong to their forces.
To the high-ranking aristocrats, Riod was like a giraffe.
If it came into his hands, he could have become a valuable gold, but on the contrary, he could become a deadly blade and threaten his own throat.
“The process leading up to my husband and I getting married was not smooth.”
As if it had become a memory now, Theresia’s attitude was mild as she spoke calmly with a small smile.
“Her father was against marrying her husband.”
Theresia’s father didn’t feel that much value in Riod.
Making him his own person would also carry the risk of being looked down upon and being checked by others, but it wasn’t enough to marry his own daughter and make him his son-in-law.
The first time Theresia brought Leo de to her mansion and introduced herself, she raged and kicked him out, she was still not forgotten.
“So I ended up committing it despite her father’s objections.”
“…”
She sneaks out of her mansion under curfew to meet a heartbroken Leode, who is drunk and drunk.
She then took her to a hotel and had her first experiences as a woman with him.
“Oh, mother…”
When she first heard of her parents’ naked love story, Eira was startled and put on her embarrassed expression.
However, Theresia continued her speech with a smile on her face.
“I heard that my daughter also committed similar actions to Cha Han-seong?”
“Mother… !”
In the end, the blushing Eira shouted loudly and called out to Theresia.
“If you’re going to be so shy, why did you do that?”
“Eww…”
“Yeah… To be precise, I took her senior to the hotel…”
“Oh my goodness. Are you covering her aira?”
“…”
She thought she was just telling the truth, but she heard Eira’s mischievous joke.
“Anyway, that’s why I took her Ayra as her first experience at that time.”
“Huh… !?”
Cha Han-seong was startled without realizing it.
It was quite a shock that he had skipped the engagement as well as the marriage and suddenly took her baby.
This was especially the case because it was a strict aristocratic society in the Kingdom of Fernias that valued virginity before marriage.
“That’s why I hope to set a date and hold the ceremony as soon as possible.”
“Yes… ?”
“Oh, mother… !?”
“It’s not that I specifically want to avoid staring at people or staring at me. Because of my husband.”
“Everything, what’s wrong with the captain… ?”
“As soon as my husband found out that he had Eira, he was tortured for weeks by the family knights on his father’s orders.”
“…”
“Perhaps he wasn’t ready to send me to my husband yet.”
In addition, there was no way that Riod could catch his eye as she had to have a ceremony in a hurry due to her premarital pregnancy.
“That…”
“Yes. Is it similar to you now?”
It was similar to the situation up until now when Riod pushed her Cha Han-seong hard.
“Actually, my husband approved of you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have pointed my sword at you. I just need to get rid of her so she won’t be seen again.”
Riod simply wasn’t ready to send Eira yet.
As a single father of a daughter, the emotional issues of not being ready to marry her off to another man.
As Cha Han-sung, I couldn’t relate to it, but it was also a problem I could fully understand.
‘Sure, it’s a little unfair, but…’
His body trembled involuntarily as he recalled the memory of the moment before, when he had been pushed so hard that he wondered if he was really going to die.
“Cha Han-seong. No. Can I call you Hanseong now?”
“Yes yes! You can say whatever you feel comfortable with.”
“Our Eira. May I ask you?”
I don’t know anything else, but I could say that with certainty.
“… Yes. I will make you the happiest.”
“… Eww.”
Hearing her determined oath, Eira blushed at her.
Cha Han-seong, in front of her eyes, firmly declared that he would protect her again.
◆ ◆ ◆
“Relieve yourself.”
“… Not in a bad mood.”
“What are you doing with such an impression? And stop taking your anger out on him. There are times when it is time to let go.”
“It’s not about resentment. Warning. A warning that if Ayra makes her weep, she will make bloody tears flow from his pores.”
Erin burst into admiration at Riod’s words.
“Wow, wow…”
Knowing how much he valued her Ayla, he felt her admiration and a little bit of her envy at the same time.
To Erin, her father was a subhuman scumbag who beat her and looked at her with lustful eyes.
Although she was envious of the fact that her Eira had a really wonderful and dependable father, that heart was not that great.
‘Well, in addition to my older brother, I also have Hyun, Illyana-sama, Eleanor-sama, and Lily unnie!’
Erin had a strong attachment to her newly established family borders.
As if to express it, she held Eunhyun’s arm tightly.
“Then we go. Don’t bother him too much.”
“I have never been bullied.”
“Hey, what you were just doing is bullying and absurd.”
“…”
Is there anything more absurd than a commander, the highest ranking officer, harassing an ordinary soldier?
Seeing Liode not answering with a sad expression, Eunhyeon smiled and left the knights.
“Hi-Hi.”
“… It varies.”
When they left the Knights Headquarters building with Erin, who clung to her Eun-hyeon, and Ju-hong, who slightly frowned at her as if she was tired of seeing her, Eun-hyeon spoke to Siete, who followed them.
“… Master.”
“Hmm.”
“Do you have business for me?”
“Right.”
Siete didn’t come because she had business with the Artia Knights.
In Eunhyeon’s head, the ‘identity of swordsmanship’ she mentioned was still lingering.
“… Would you like to go to my house at once?”
“Okay.”
As soon as Eunhyeon and Siete returned home, they headed straight to the underground training ground.
“Did you realize what the cause of your identity is?”
“… It wasn’t that there was no guessing part at all. Furthermore… You didn’t even give me a hint, did you? I was sure.”
“Hmm, yes. What is the cause?”
“… I think my dislocation was the cause.”
Rapid growth of physical ability through metamorphosis of the bone.
Not only did the amount of magical energy in the body rise rapidly, but the growth of overall physical abilities was at a level different from the growth due to the half-vampire naturalization that Hanseong Cha suffered.
Of course, the gap with the bodily sensations he originally had would inevitably be farther away.
“But I can’t be like Cha Han-sung.”
Eunhyeon did not have the talent to catch up with the person standing in front of her like Cha Hanseong.
However, Siete denied Eun-hyeon’s guess at once.
“Know. If it was possible, you wouldn’t have been going through that plateau until now. But it is wrong.”
“Yes?”
“The identity of your sword is not your rapidly rising body specs.”
Eun-hyeon put on a puzzled expression when he realized that what he thought was not the cause of the stagnation.
Other than that, it was natural for Eunhyeon to be embarrassed.
“… So what is it?”
“It’s your chronic problem that you’ve been building up until now.”
“…”
“You seem unaware. Well, if there was awareness, it would have been a problem that would be fixed right away. Let me ask you one thing. Hyuna.”
“Yes. Master.”
“The sword you are now heading towards was another you. Is that right?”
“That’s right.”
Eun-hyeon affirmed.
To be precise, he understood and established Siete’s swordsmanship in a way different from his own, and was himself in another dimension who continued to focus only on swordsmanship.
For 800 years, more than the current self, he trained only in swordsmanship, and was called the ‘Sword Saint’ just like Siete, and he was also the target of Eun-hyeon.
“But can you be confident that you are following the other you perfectly?”
“…”
Eunhyun couldn’t answer.
Well, there’s no way you can do that.
Wouldn’t it be realistically impossible to follow the 800 years he went through?
It is said that they are narrowing the gap to a level equivalent to that through various expedients, but recently, Eun-hyeon has been feeling frustrated because she has been unable to narrow the gap.
“Master… Do you know the cause of my identity?”
“Did you tell me? It’s your chronic problem. It is purely a matter of mindset, of thought.”
It was an incomprehensible word.
Siete’s advice was always this.
It seems to give you the right answer, but it doesn’t tell you exactly what the right answer is.
He only gave hints to the end and hoped that he would realize and find the correct answer himself.
The fact that Eun-hyeon couldn’t completely deny Erin’s opinion that Erin pouted her lips and complained, ‘It’s a floating sound.’
Siete pulled out the sword, the mistletoe, that was worn around her waist.
Siete kicked the floor and rushed towards Eunhyeon.
[Juhyeonseong Polar Plain]
[Lee Hyeong-hwan-wi (移形換位)]
“… !”
Surprised by the teacher’s surprise, Eun-hyeon summoned Geum-wol and Eun-wol and struck her sword.
Kaaang!
The trembling of the air caused by the intense metallic sound filled the training ground.
When her lightly paced surprise was blocked neatly, Xie Te stepped behind her and distanced herself from Eun-hyeon.
“Master. Just that… ?”
“It’s a step you used often. When I used it myself, it was quite usable.”
“…”
Siete learned Eunhyun’s footsteps very simply, which he had learned from Joo Hyunseong.
“It is not only my swordsmanship that composes your martial arts. This includes not only the other you who forcibly possessed your body and experienced it indirectly, but also the person who taught you this martial arts.”
In a way, it could be said that Ju Hyeon-seong was the starting point of all the techniques Eun-hyeon used.
All techniques, including swordsmanship and spearmanship, he uses are techniques that damage the opponent by using a tool called a weapon.
What uses that tool is the user’s body.
It was Ju Hyeon-seong who first taught Eun-hyeon combat skills and how to use the body.
“Go back to the beginning. And find out what went wrong.”
“…”
Eunhyeon thought of Siete’s advice over and over again in her head.
