Chapter 68 – Royal Capital Gaul (15)
“I am Edelis Bride, a direct subordinate to Leone.”
Edelis Bride with silver hair and silver eyes.
I didn’t notice it when I closed my eyes, but looking at it like this, it’s a beauty that gives off a cold and haughty impression.
In my opinion, it’s more like an aristocratic woman than a knight.
If Azazel is a cute and lively girl, Edelis is a chaste and elegant woman.
If you’re a man, your gaze will go away conditioned reflexively.
I got anxious.
So I looked into Ain’s eyes.
“Know.”
In fact, he reacted vehemently.
I am relieved by your unyielding attitude.
A person who treats everyone equally.
‘What was I worried about, all he wants is me.’
How would you describe this feeling?
Proud?
Achievement?
Pride?
Anything is fine.
This is me with the corners of my mouth going up.
On the other hand, at Ain’s insensitive tone, the veins slightly sprouted from Sir Edelis’ fine forehead.
“I didn’t tell you, Hero Sir Einstein.”
“Looking at you crying, I think the curse has healed.”
The two of them met each other’s eyes.
Their eyes are sharp like blades.
It doesn’t seem to get along well.
By analogy, it looks like a dog.
I don’t want to interfere with that, but I decided to correct Ain’s words.
“Ain, Lord Edelis’s curse still lingers on her body.”
“Is it.” “Is that so.”
Both were dark voices.
Did Ain worry about Sir Edelis in his own way?
Why?
I feel bad.
Is it because the relationship between the two is not as bad as you thought?
I think it’s very ugly that I have such dark thoughts.
Match.
I heard the clapping of my hands.
It was Leon’s applause.
“Don’t be depressed, will the saintess eminently prescribe?”
Their eyes were fixed on me.
I nodded vigorously.
“Yes. It’s difficult at first, so if it’s a curse that’s weakened like this, you can do it without difficulty.”
Saying that, both Ain and Sir Edelis’ expressions brightened even more.
Azazel puffed her cheeks in displeasure.
I questioned her.
“Is there anything you don’t like, Azazel?”
“You don’t look angry? That prince speaks as if Arya would do it for sure.”
I believe that if we can save people, we should save them.
It is a moral concept that a human being must have before being proud of Ain.
Still, Azazel must have thought of me.
“You don’t need many reasons to save people.”
“… You’re a wonderful hogu, unnie.”
It would be nice if you could say that I’m more like a saint than a hogu.
After listening to Azazel’s words, Mr. Leon bowed at a right angle to me and thanked me.
“I have said it before, but I will say it again. Thank you, thank you I know how pitiful it is to just talk. Although I have nothing to repay right away because I am a fake, I will definitely repay this favor.”
Lord Edelis, who saw the prince’s appearance, immediately leaned back at a right angle and bowed his head to me.
“Thank you very much. Saint Yeha. I have an account in my name at the Royal Bank, though it is small, and I will make it available at any time if you need funds…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay! Really!”
I shook my hand at the undeserved praise and reward.
Of course, there’s nothing more humiliating than being praised for your work.
For a moment while such a gentle gongchisa came and went, the room quickly fell into silence.
After a while, Mr. Leon spoke to Sir Edelis.
“Sir Edelis. As I said when we were together, I want you to return to your body.”
As it was originally, Sir Edelis would have been entrusted to Mr. Leon, who was residing in the palace around yesterday.
But there were several incidents.
Time was delayed unintentionally, and as a result of that delay, she woke up.
Sir Edelis’ silver eyes contained the light of rejection.
It shows a firm, determined will.
“I don’t like it.”
After waking up, she insisted on staying with her doppelganger, Mr. Leon.
The stubbornness of the female knight seems to be tougher than a bull’s sinew.
“You are also Leon.”
“‘That’ is also Leon.”
“…”
Sir Edelis was speechless.
Leon added.
“It is time to go back. Isn’t it pitiful to be alone?”
“Then, are you really all right?”
Leon laughed softly.
Somehow, it feels like a painful laugh.
“You can’t keep everyone. If so, shouldn’t we protect what is of high value?”
Sir Edelis bit her lip in resentment.
“The value of degradation is indivisible.”
“Sir Edelis, I don’t mind if you leave. But have you ever thought about what the ‘body’ would be like without kyeong? I’m not going to collapse do you want that May the main body cling to and rely on the sutra?”
“… Not at all.”
“Don’t cling to me, who is fake. I am satisfied now that you are alive and breathing with your eyes open. That doesn’t mean giving up. As you said, I will not give up. Anything. So don’t worry. Besides, don’t I have trustworthy companions?”
“Good words, but he…”
Sir Edelis’ sharp eyes stare at Ein.
It was an unreliable look.
Ain shrugged his shoulders and pinched his nose.
It’s his signature gesture to close his eyes.
However, I couldn’t tolerate her attitude.
So I blocked Lord Edelis’ gaze.
“I guess there is a law in the capital to glare at benefactors?”
She looked at me with her bewildered eyes.
Did you not know that I would come out so hostile?
At my sharp tone, Sir Edelis immediately bowed his head and apologized.
“I’m sorry if I offended you, Saint Empress.”
Sir Edelis knew that she did not see Ain well.
She must have her reasons and grounds as she does.
However, no matter how sensible and justified it is, she cannot be a reason to criticize Ain.
“Ain is the one who takes the lead in protecting your lord. Are you a knight without occasion to show hostility to the ruler’s benefactor?”
“Arya, I’m not that offended…”
“I’m talking to Sir Edelis right now, Ain.”
“… Yes.”
Ain stepped back with an expression that could not be helped.
By no means, it’s not because the relationship between the two seems intimate.
… It’s not.
“This is a fair statement. Saint Lady Yeha.”
It was Sir Edelis who bowed his head sincerely.
When I saw her lower her head, I was not at ease with her.
Am I shooting too hard?
“Keep your head up. Everyone makes mistakes. It’s something that needs to be improved and not repeated.”
“I’ll try my best.”
Azazel was looking in my direction with interest.
If there was popcorn, I wonder if I wouldn’t have eaten it.
“You know, Einstein.”
“Why?”
“Although Arya unni seems stuffy and foolish, she has a sharp side. Is not it?”
“Right. Arya’s not just cute, Azazel.”
It was a conversation that made her face heat up as I listened from behind.
I glared at Ain and Azazel resentfully.
The two avoided eye contact with anyone.
This is a typical warrior party.
Leon looked at us and smiled softly.
“It seems that they are seeing close friends of 10 years when they get along well.”
Azazel protested as if she had heard something she couldn’t hear.
“Your prince, I don’t know if you’re Aria, but I’d rather bite my tongue and seal the magic than have a close friend like Einstein.”
The wizard seals the magic.
This is a remark that has nothing to do with social suicide.
Ain furrowed his eyebrows at the fierce reaction.
“You are doing too much.”
“Hey, are you saying I’m weak when I cry and cling to you and kick you without mercy when you ejaculate?”
“She couldn’t help it when only Arya came into her eyes.”
Azazel raised her middle finger up with a fierce smile.
“Good job, make it a hundred years. A rotten warrior.”
“Heb.”
Ain’s sudden confession made my face heat up.
Can’t you feel the beating of her heart on her face when you touch her cheek?
A situation where the conversation flows according to the stream of consciousness.
Not good.
This is where we need to sort out the sprawling conversations.
Then Sir Leon quietly raised his hand.
Then all eyes turned to him.
After clearing his throat, he opened his mouth.
“Let’s get to the point that brought you all together here.”
That’s right.
This seat was created by Leon himself.
They called us over because they had something to say.
His blue eyes shone as cold as the winter sky.
“I must go to the palace where the main body is staying.”
Ain is looking at Leon.
That gaze reminds me of a detective looking for clues.
“It’s a royal palace, it’s a place I have to go to someday. But you seem to be in a hurry.”
“Is there any reason not to hurry? Sir Edelis has improved a lot, and it turns out that the demons created my doppelganger. This is definitely a story that needs to be told to the main body.”
A very reasonable word.
Logically, there was no place to question it.
However, in this case, the key is how to meet.
Leon, the main body, and Leon, the doppelganger.
The situation between the two of you is hopelessly out of whack.
Because we know that the doppelganger, Mr. Leon, harmed Sir Edelis.
Ain pointed out this.
“If you enter the palace head-on, you will be arrested.”
“Everyone knows.”
“Is there a way?”
Leon looked at Ain and Sir Edelis alternately and made a strange expression.
Would you say it’s like a bad boy, or would you say it’s insidious?
The expression on the prince’s face was not at all possible.
“Let’s use it.”
“Is it there?”
“Is that there?”
The two are guessing.
Only me and Azazel are generating question marks.
Mr. Leon specifically mentioned ‘there’ in a way that is easy for us to understand.
“The only way to access it is through the secret passage from the royal family.”
“A secret passage?”
“That’s right, the saintess, Your Excellency.”
A royal secret passage.
It is a very exciting word.
Aren’t you in the mood for an adventure?
