Chapter 202 – 19. This Country Gives a Lot Anyway!
The meeting with Claudia Rubelstone happened unexpectedly first.
“Huh? What are you looking at?”
“…”
“What are you looking at like that?”
Siu looked at the woman in front of her.
Dressed in knight armor that meets the official standards of the Kingdom of Palania and other accessories that decorate the body.
Light blue wavy hair that reminds me of Hildear and Kriemhild.
However, unlike them, she has bronze skin.
“You guy. Looking at your face and hair, you look like a warrior. Do you have something to do with me?”
Even in their sloppy tone, they don’t remind the two of them at all.
At the moment I thought that this was enough to make them worry.
“Hey, answer me. Are you just ignoring me?”
Claudia takes a step towards Siwoo.
It’s not overbearing.
Even considering her armor, she is small compared to him, and when she thinks that she is Hildear’s sister, she just laughs. It’s rude to think like this, but even if you say a noble or a knight in Palania, you’re like a firefly in front of a warrior, especially in front of him.
Claudia wouldn’t be unaware of that, so this is clearly a bluff.
If it wasn’t a bluff, that would be a problem as it is.
I decided to watch Siwoo.
“Ha. That’s ridiculous. What, were you afraid to say scout?”
The way he was patiently holding back his mouth trying to say something.
‘You’re a Scout. He wants it, not me.’
Hildear suddenly came to mind.
Claudia said that her jealousy, especially towards her older sister Hildeard, and her sense of entitlement were great.
So, she may also want to join the warrior party and do her job.
No, looking at her expression now, it’s clear.
Of course, trying to join any hero’s party is a little strange.
‘Is it because he’s a male warrior? No, don’t you know my face before that?’
“Hey.”
“Ha! You’re finally opening your mouth.”
“Don’t you know me?”
“What, what?!”
Embarrassed Claudia.
Her tanned skin made her cheeks red, though not very noticeable.
Thanks to this, he knew that her tanned skin and tone had more rebellious reasons.
‘That’s so cute.’
There was a reason when I said that there was an awkward feeling for some reason from her appearance and the way she spoke that seemed to be matched on purpose.
“Yes, yes, who are you!”
Haha! What, you really don’t know?”
“Uh, huh?”
Claudia was genuinely perplexed.
A man she liked quite a bit was staring at her, so she started talking.
However, what came out of his mouth was Sibitu’s tone.
She surprised herself, but she couldn’t help it because her tone had been used to her for years. Thanks to her, she teased her mouth as much as she could. I wondered what could happen. From what I heard at first glance, male warriors said that they also liked this type of woman.
It took a little bit for the other person’s reaction to be so calm, but alas.
It seems that he is a more famous, higher-ranking warrior than he thought.
‘It’s a big deal… ! Who the hell is that?!’
The kingdom of Palania is a small country of warriors.
There aren’t many female warriors, let alone male ones.
Especially if it’s a high-ranking warrior.
Because of this, the man’s confident and relaxed attitude made three names come to mind in a corner of her head, but she tried to ignore it. Absolutely not. If it is true that you touched the man’s planting, it becomes dangerous in many ways.
The shortest A-class male hero.
A saint who appeared after hundreds of years.
And this is the most important.
The lover of the Queen of Palania who swore allegiance.
‘No way… Oh no… ?’
“Nice to meet you, Claudia.”
Flinch.
“Oh, maybe…?”
“I don’t know what to call you. Call me Han Si-woo.”
“…”
The reddish-brown skin turned white.
Kriemhild, who heard the story, burst into a lively laugh instead of being angry.
“Ahahahaha!”
Normally, Claudia would have been cocky and angry at her mother’s laughter, but this time she couldn’t. For that reason, the name Siwoo Han has so much meaning in this country.
“…”
Claudia is sitting on the edge of the sofa, expressing her displeasure with a gruff face.
His legs are crossed and he looks arrogant.
Of course, it was hard to see his legs trembling while wearing iron armor.
‘It’s really absurd.’
“Rhodia. Bridge.”
“Joy.”
Claudia snorts at his mother’s point.
Even so, it is impressive that she untwisted her legs as if it was because it was uncomfortable.
“I’m sorry, son-in-law Siu. That child is rebellious as if he hasn’t reached puberty yet.”
“It’s okay. It was just cute.”
“I’m glad you said that.”
The prospective son-in-law and the prospective mother-in-law show a harmonious atmosphere.
Claudia was surprised inside, even though she had a calm face.
Unexpectedly, her mother’s attitude is kind and gentle.
No matter how much her opponent is a future son-in-law and a male hero who is the kingdom’s only hope, Claudia is well aware of her mother, Kriemhild. She is not the kind of person who changes her attitude because of her status or status.
Until Siu appeared, no, even now, he is an impartial knight who is referred to as one of the five pillars of Palania. In other words, that means that he has already acknowledged him and deepened his relationship.
‘I heard they became close like this?’
I was envious and jealous that we had become this close in just a few months.
‘… He’s always strict with me.’
Half aware that her own attitude and rebellion were the cause, but at the same time Claudia couldn’t admit it. It is easier for her mental health to place her original responsibility on others rather than on herself.
And although she doesn’t know her body, who lives here just after her coming-of-age ceremony, she was still mentally immature.
“I had a hard time with the mission.”
“The hardships. What will the warrior do if he doesn’t do his mission?”
“Huh, it would be nice if everyone thought so.”
Kriemhild admired once again seeing Siu sitting next to her youngest daughter.
In general, when warriors perform missions, the top priority is, of course, difficulty and rewards.
Achievements are far behind.
This is also because, unlike the past, the number of warriors has increased considerably, and through various trials and errors, the effect of skill rather than achievement on the grade has increased. It is a policy that has both pros and cons, but recently there has been talk of effectiveness.
“Still, the junk missions seem to have decreased little by little.”
“That’s also thanks to Siwoo’s son-in-law. Some of the inspired warriors are working hard. Especially Baek Hye-yeon and Senjo Maki.”
Baek Hye-yeon and Senjo Maki.
The former belongs to Siu’s clan, while the latter does not.
However, they both have one thing in common: their graduation motives, Baek Hye-yeon, who works tirelessly day and night to improve her swordsmanship skills, and Maki Senjo, who is doing her best under her most important value of righteousness, are the second hottest in the kingdom after Siu. They are rookies
Recently, they are seen competing with each other and are gaining popularity.
‘Um, I have to make some progress with Hyeyeon, but the time isn’t right. It will still take some time to adapt to this world.’
Baek Hye-yeon’s maiden is also Si-woo, who is also being pursued.
From what I’ve heard, her body hasn’t fully adapted to this world yet, so she doesn’t follow the laws of the other world’s hymen.
It usually takes about a year, so there are still two or three months.
Siu has been looking for an opportunity after visiting the Slav Kingdom or the Magic Kingdom.
‘Perhaps Claudia was around that time…’
“Siwoo’s son-in-law? I think he’s thinking something impure…”
“Ah, it’s an impure thought. I’m just thinking about the future from time to time.”
“Future, hmm.”
Kriemhild, who was looking in an oblique direction from the desk, that is, in the direction where Siu was, slightly turned to the side.
It was because she was afraid that her second daughter would see her reddened cheeks.
Future.
It was a word that could have many meanings, but she had no choice but to respond sensitively.
‘That would be too…’
After the loss of her husband, the woman’s heart, which had stopped, is pounding.
If she wasn’t a daughter who didn’t know the truth yet, she would have called him ‘Siwoo-sama ♡’ with her affection right now. It’s a very strong urge that I couldn’t have endured if it wasn’t for the master’s level.
“Siwoo ni, keuhum. Shi, Siu son-in-law. Come to think of it, you said you’re going to the Slav kingdom soon, right?”
‘It was dangerous…’
Kriemhild asked, internally relieved that he hadn’t made his mistake.
“Yes, I think I’ll take a break for a week and leave.”
“A week. It should be enough to spend time with us, no, the queen.”
“…? Yes.”
Siu was puzzled by Kriemhild’s risky tone.
Does she want to brag to her daughter, or does she regret seeing her after only a few days?
In his eyes, it seems that he is just impatient to show off.
‘Really cute.’
Siwoo also had the urge to hug her right away.
Kriemhild’s annoyance is also understandable.
Focusing on her latest mission, she didn’t get much time with Charperia, let alone with her mother and daughter.
The queen, the princess, and the captain of the guards.
All three are key figures in the busy kingdom.
Charperia, who has more and more work as Siwoo is active at home and abroad, and Sharina, who is in charge of her state affairs, starting to learn work from her mother to help Siwoo. Kriemhild even received her new mission from her queen.
The week-long break after spurring the mission is not just for his party members who have worked hard.
“Well, I’ll talk about my schedule later. Please introduce me to my youngest daughter, whom my mother-in-law loves.”
“…?”
Kriemhild wasn’t the only one who had doubts about Shiu’s words.
‘Uh… ?’
I turned my head to the side and saw the face of a grinning man.
Claudia chewed the words out of his mouth to herself.
Dear youngest daughter.
She leaves her daughter with her mother, Kriemhild.
I wondered a little bit if he was serious about what he had just said or if it was nothing more than a joke.
Kriemhild didn’t confirm or deny it, just nodded and continued.
“Yes. I should greet you properly. This is Claudia, the youngest of my two daughters whom I love the most in the world.”
“…I-I’m sorry earlier. Claudia… Call it Rubel Stone.”
Unlike before, Claudia apologizes in the same tone as other peers.
That look is awkward for a while. Her two people watching her, and her party too.
Claudia was comforted by the fact that in her heart she was not apologizing for her mother, but was merely observing her minimum manners and making up for her earlier mistake as her knight. To her, her tanning madness was no longer a concept, but pure herself.
“Haha, it’s okay. It’s a mistake, anyone makes it. I’m not that authoritative.”
When Siwoo said that Kriemhild makes mistakes, she unknowingly flinched.
Her eldest daughter, Hildear, comes to mind.
Her actions in her first meeting with Siwoo were also dangerous because they were unknown to the outside world and ended as if it was nothing.
‘… Did I raise my kids wrong… ?’
Thanks to her, she had to think about that for a moment.
Both of my daughters made mistakes, so I have nothing to say even if I receive such an evaluation.
Siwoo and Claudia are properly speaking and having a peaceful conversation.
Then, Siu turned his head to Kriemhild.
“By the way, mother-in-law.”
“Why is that?”
“Why did you invite Sir Claudia to the capital?
At his question, Claudia also looked at her mother with her young face, full of her curiosity.
She came up two days ago.
As soon as she came up, she followed Kriemhild around and greeted her, so she didn’t hear why either. She asked once, but it was because Kriemhild had to worry about her answer before being distracted by other things. She hasn’t asked again since then.
“Reason. Um. Originally, I shouldn’t have said it… But the two of you would be fine.”
Having said that, the knight commander picked up a piece of paper from his desk and showed it to the two.
“This is a new mission given by the Queen. To create an educational institution to nurture talents in the kingdom.”
“Educational equipment… Just articles?”
“No. Not just knights, but administrators, wizards, and many other fields. But if we were to find a motif that was different from the imperial academy, it would be more like a training center for warriors and a training center for members. Ah. I’m only in charge of the knight part.”
“Aha. After selecting the knights to serve as instructors there, several knights have vacant positions.”
“That’s right, whooping. After uploading the temporary members, there was a gap in the temporary members this time.”
Claudia realized the reason after hearing the story up to that point.
Her eyes filled with anticipation.
