Chapter 56 – Theorard Dreams (2)
The silence created by Beinon’s unconventional remarks lasted longer than expected. No one here was at a loss as to how to organize the situation.
Roylen was the first to come to her senses after looking back at each other for a while. After all, he was Her Highness’s confidant and was also in charge of this matter.
“…… Knight Bainen. Do not misunderstand and listen carefully. Just in case, what I am saying from now on is absolutely no joke.”
At this point, Beinun must have sensed that her mood was strange, so he put down the towel he was using to wipe his sweat.
“Professor? Why are you so scared Did I do anything wrong?”
“Yes. In conclusion, you did make a mistake.”
“I am…… ?”
Vaynon gulped at her saliva, visibly agitated.
Looking at me, Baynon raised her right hand as if to swear an oath, as if she seemed to be inclined to something.
“I will confess. I secretly ate the chocolate from Balgeum in the drawing room. It’s expensive, so I was curious about the taste, so I tried it, but I became addicted to it……. I didn’t eat much though! About three…… !”
“What?”
Sometimes the chocolate I hadn’t eaten disappeared, so I thought the elf ate it, but I didn’t know that the culprit was Bainen. I was so dumbfounded that I was exhaling helplessly, so Bainen put his hands together and put on a sad expression.
“Sorry, Bocchan! I’ll stop chocolate! You can deduct the price of chocolate from my paycheck! No matter how you call the members of the imperial family to catch me! Aren’t you really doing too much…… !”
Where should I point out? It’s a total mess.
I, who had been looking at Baynon pathetically, let out a low sigh at her.
“It is not like that. The reason the imperial family came to the mansion is to deliver the reward for the artificial rain magic I completed earlier.”
“Yes? So, what did I do wrong…….”
“Let me explain.”
Roylen smiled shyly and said.
“To put it simply, Her Highness read [Secret Tryst with a Princess] Written by the knight, and was enraged at the fact that the last volume had not been published for three years. So he ordered the author to be arrested.”
“Yes? Are you saying that Her Highness, the Princess, has read my book? No, more…….”
Bainen frowned as if he didn’t understand.
“What is the message to arrest her for not writing a book?”
“Knight. I hope you will be careful with her words.”
“Oh, sorry. But from my point of view, I don’t understand. If you get caught, won’t you be punished?”
“Well. Her Highness, the princess, said she would kill the author, but she’s only talking about it. In reality, she will receive a light punishment and be released.”
“How about a light punishment?”
“Maybe……After being beaten, you will write the last volume in solitary confinement.”
To write a book in solitary confinement after being beaten. What kind of inhuman treatment is this?
Beinun also had a bad complexion to see if she was thinking the same as me. It seemed to me that I had to step in here. Because she didn’t want to make the family’s only vassal knight suffer.
“Professor Roylen.”
“Yes. Lord Theorard. Anything you want to say?”
“Even if you ask Her Highness, it’s unfair to arrest a family vassal knight just because he didn’t write the next volume of the book. I would like to implore Her Highness, the Princess, to reconsider her order.”
“Hmm. If you say so…….”
“For a moment.”
Roylen was about to nod her head helplessly, but Vaynon interrupted without noticing her.
“Professor. I’ve been thinking about it. What will happen if I succeed in persuading Her Highness her, the princess, with a valid reason for stopping the series?”
“If you succeed in convincing Her Highness Her, it’s perfect. There will be no blush between the Deharm family and the imperial family, and Her Highness the Princess will treat the knight as an honored guest.”
“How about a VIP?”
“During your stay in the imperial palace, you will be able to have everything you want from the system.”
There was a strange feeling in Bainen’s eyes in her.
“Are there any beauties included?”
“If you want. There are a lot of high-class women in Jedo.”
There is something strange about the flow of conversation.
Bainen, what are you talking about when I say I’ll get rid of this guy.
Bainnon, who was struggling as he stroked her rough chin, nodded her head with her suddenly serious face.
“Good. I will go to the islands.”
Thanks to that, it was me who was dumbfounded.
“Bainen! What nonsense are you talking about!”
“Yes? Her Highness told me to catch me, so shouldn’t I go?”
“No, didn’t you hear Professor Roylen? Didn’t she get whipped?”
“If you succeed in persuasion, you won’t be accepted.”
“If persuasion fails, it will not end with a light punishment.”
“Young master.”
Bainen tapped my shoulder. A haughty smile hangs over the middle-aged face of her age.
It’s like, ‘I’ve outlived you, man’…… It was the appearance of an adult who claimed to be a senior in life.
“This is a gamble worth taking. Don’t worry too much, as I will definitely win and protect my family’s status as well as myself.”
I am speechless. Where the hell is a person who bets his life on a gambling stake?
Besides, the fact that Vaynon’s offspring could wallow with the girls of her institution her seemed more important than the stature of her family her or the safety of herself.
“As I said before, before I was a knight, I was a mercenary.”
Tuk-tuk. Beinun, who tapped her on my shoulder, looked up at her sky with a spleen expression.
“So there is no need to refuse because it is dangerous. Isn’t it said that every trial that doesn’t kill you makes you stronger? It’s like a kind of wall that every man must jump over.”
“Under…”
The willingness of her to save her disappears, so she goes down through her pavement.
After clearing her mind, I turned to Roylen with a bitter smile.
“Just take it as a system. I think I will come to my senses only after being beaten.”
“I also have a different opinion. Then, as you said, we will leave.”
Whisper. Roylen, who was chanting enough to be heard only by me, responded to Beinen with a bright smile. Holding on to Beinun’s back her, he started walking toward the entrance of her mansion her.
“Good! Also, the knight has a spirit. If you follow me, I will take you to the island at once using the warp gate in the plaza.”
“Aren’t warp gates expensive?”
“Haha. Don’t worry, the imperial family will cover everything.”
Watching Bainen and Roylen walk away, I have all sorts of thoughts. Most of it was about worry, so it wasn’t such a good idea.
Shaking my head to organize my thoughts, I approached the carriage. As the knights of the imperial family followed Roylen out of the mansion, the surroundings of the carriage were quiet.
“Chairman. Do you know exactly what the wagon’s items are?”
David, who had caught up next to me, replied casually.
“There are two wagons full of gold and silver treasures, one full of fine silk, and the other full of books. In addition, I was given 15 horses.”
I’m checking again, but there are too many of them. There are tons of things you can do with it, but let’s load it up for now.
It would be a big deal if the imperial family overturned the compensation plan and demanded a refund after spending it arbitrarily. There was nothing wrong with being careful these days, when public sentiment toward the imperial family was vicious.
“For now, load the goods into the family warehouse. It might come in handy in the future. With silk, the servants and the slaves’ clothes were matched one by one. As for the horses, only five of them are strong enough to be sold at the horse market, and the books can be put in an empty space in the library of the mansion.”
“All right. But is it okay to use silk like that?”
“Okay. Haven’t you, the chief chamberlain, been wearing the same clothes for eight years? I should have paid more attention, but I’m sorry I couldn’t.”
“My lord…….”
Harvey’s eyes brighten. Being moved by nothing was one of David’s bad habits of his. Patting him on the shoulder to stop crying, I checked the contents of the wagon with David.
“You really sent a lot.”
I checked up to the last wagon (full of books), shook my hands and retreated.
“Now call the servants and slaves and tell them to stock up on items in the warehouse…….”
I was about to say the last words at Harvey, but I couldn’t bear to keep up with the woman running from across the street as if she was being chased.
It may be more so because her pink hair with a hint of black was easily noticeable from a distance. She continued to look, wanting something, and the woman crossed the entrance of her mansion and started running toward me.
Uh huh In the meantime, a woman who had arrived at her distance her sighed heavily and knelt down on her knees.
“Saah, save me…….”
Tears welled up in her eyes her, the same color as her hair her. The clothes she was wearing were torn beyond recognition, so her body was half naked.
The torn clothes barely covered her nipples on her, but she couldn’t do anything about the exposed areolas. A quick glance at her made it clear that she was quite attractive, but that didn’t matter now.
I got down on one knee and grabbed her by the shoulders.
“For now, calm down. Why did this happen?”
“I don’t know, I don’t know……. Caught by slave hunters, injected with strange drugs…… Ugh, I barely escaped, but where is this place…….”
Could the slave hunters be active in the county of Pelgarin, which is reputed to be safe? I was curious, but I couldn’t blindly suspect the person who seemed to be the victim.
“For now, take a deep breath. Inhale and exhale slowly.”
“Yes, yes……. Whoa… Ha…….”
“Have you calmed down?”
“Yes. A little……”
“Then tell me your name and where you live. I will help you.”
“My name is Seredi…… Oh no! My name is Petrad. Residence…… I do not know. I can’t remember…….”
“You don’t remember?”
“Yes……. Maybe it’s the drugs the slave hunters put in me…….”
A drug that erases memory. I’d never heard of it, but slave hunters probably had it. There are also pills that produce breast milk when eaten.
But how on earth is she supposed to help a woman who can’t remember anything but her name her? As I was struggling, she hugged me tightly like a woman suddenly.
“It’s okay, even if it’s just for a few days, let me stay in the mansion! You can violate my body if you want. So ah~!”
The feeling of breasts rubbing against my body is burdensome.
“Ah, I understand, for now…… !”
“Please let me stay in the mansion! You can violate me any number of times…… !”
“Enough!”
Even though she tried her best to shake it off, the woman did not think it would come off easily. On the contrary, it was uncomfortable because it clung to my body and made me cry.
It seemed that I couldn’t shake it off with my own strength. I turned around to ask David for help, but I gasped when I saw the elf staring at me with a cool complexion.
“Who is it?”
When did you come without a sign? I think I came down after seeing this scene while washing the window by the window, but I feel unfair!
“I swear to you, she is a completely unknown woman! She suddenly came to me asking for help- “
“Aha.”
The elf who cut me off looked at the woman in my arms this time.
Red eyes were filled with unknown emotions.
“I beg you, please get away from the master right away.”
The woman’s whining stops.
When the woman looked at her with a disapproving gaze, the elf grinned.
“Did you tell me to get off?”
It was the most businesslike chant, but for some reason, those words sounded like the roar of a beast…….
