Chapter 140 – In the Rain.
The next day, the town turned upside down. It was a natural story. It was an incident in which the village headman tried to coerce the lord’s daughter, not anyone else. It was still an inclement day with pouring rain, but the incident was still an incident, so most of the villagers gathered at the courtroom of the lord’s castle. However, the trial was not so smooth.
“It’s not me! The lord has been tricked!”
Pyalyar shouted as if he was really unfair.
“I was just trying to stop Alvis from trying to rape you!”
Even if anyone saw it, it was a long time to make a wrong expression, but when someone who didn’t know it looked like it was really guilty.
“Certainly the chief isn’t that kind of person, right?”
“Because I’m sorry about Pyalyar.”
He could understand the reason why Pyalyar had dared to draw him in with his muttering voice. They must have been instigated by Pyar, or at least had contact with them. In this state, when they voiced their suspicions, other people began to look at him as well. When you’re usually treated like an idiot, when does this happen? They think that they did this by doing elaborate things that the idiot they know couldn’t do.
“Didn’t he try to do it, but he was caught by Pyarjar and put the blame on him?”
“Can’t you speak sooner?!”
Do you really think that’s possible? Perhaps because the castle had been empty for a long time, it smelled of damp air mixed with dust, which is unique to rainy days. The voices of the people gathered here echoed and the smell of them permeated. They were already acting like Alvis was a criminal. Laughter flowed out as he forgot his opponent in the trial and watched others suspicious of Alvis and trying to drive him away. It was a moment that almost became his sin without fail.
“Everyone stop. That doesn’t mean the sinner changes.”
The lord, who had been watching them quietly, opened his mouth. Like the cold armor he was wearing, the voices of those who were making a fuss about the harsh voice and tone stopped in an instant. Pjallar is visibly taken aback by this.
“What do you mean? I just…!”
“Pyarya, do you think I held the trial without listening to the person who went through it?”
Even though Pyarjar had instigated the others with trickery, the lord was looking at the situation calmly.
“Ha, but your daughter might have seen the wrong one in the middle of the night?!”
“No matter how dark and hectic it is, do you confuse dwarves and humans?”
He snorted as if it wasn’t even funny.
“Helena. Bring it.”
“Yes.”
Helena, who stepped out at the lord’s words, held out something of hers, and Pyarjar’s eyes widened at the sight.
“What does this look like?”
It was the sleeping incense that Pyalyar had been smoking using the herbs he had brought with him.
“That, I hope the lord and his wife can sleep peacefully.”
“Comfortable. Is it to the point that you can’t easily wake up once you fall asleep? They say that this combination is really poisonous.”
“No! What I meant to let go of…!”
“Could it be that Alvis changed it and smoked it?”
Before Pyajar could explain anything further, the lord intercepted his words. The young man you called, out of nowhere, happened to know that we were going to visit you, and that day he plucked these herbs and prepared them, changed the incense out of your eyes and the eyes of his servants, and tried to rape her daughter. Did?
“It will be fine.”
Among the people, there was no longer a voice defending Pyarjar nor a voice accusing Alvis of being the criminal. Pyaryaar was branded as a criminal and imprisoned to await the death penalty. That trial was already a few days ago. Afterwards, he was able to receive a reward from the lord’s personal thanks and a reduction of the punishment he was receiving, but he was not allowed to see the girl. Even on the day of the trial, the girl did not show up.
After all, he hadn’t seen a girl since that night. I knew that she was a difficult girl to meet with his current status, but after that happened, I felt that she was avoiding me for no reason. Even if he is confused, he thinks it can’t be helped because he tried to work with Pyalyar and quit in the middle. As he was looking at the store, he clicked his tongue inwardly at the sight of people opening the door and entering.
“Hey~ Who is this! Isn’t that Alvis?”
On the subject they came to directly, even the touching words and actions as if they had found him. The young men of the same age as Alvis were the troublemakers in the village. In the meantime, if I briefly ran into them outside, all I did was get hit by a few or get my herbs stolen and trampled on, but after that trial, they started coming back like this. The reason was because of the girl.
Previously, when the girl stopped by his herbalist for a short time, there was no end to the story about the girl in the village, as if someone had seen her. Among the young people in her village, there was even a subtle competition to see who could first see her and talk to her. However, no matter how bold and energetic they were, they couldn’t dare to enter the lord’s castle, so all they had to do was snoop around the castle and wait anxiously to see if they would ever go out. In the meantime, this happened.
“Now tell me. Don’t go as far as saying that you haven’t tried it like yesterday. Wouldn’t you have had some fun instead of beating Pyalyar?”
They talked as if he was sure he had raped the girl.
“I just thought he was an idiot, but this guy was really scary, wasn’t he?”
“Kiya. Ji raped her and put the blame on someone else.”
“Isn’t that the only thing? How can you let a raped girl fall in love with you and frame you? Teach me something.”
Interestingly, the distorted faces of the guys are so disgusting. He’s still getting a fever, but what makes him even more angry is that the more they do, the more he thinks it might have been nice to have fun at least once before releasing the girl. I wouldn’t have thought of it if I hadn’t put it in my eyes. The girl’s immaculate skin, her clothes ripped open by Pyajar, the bump on her chest that looks very soft even at first glance, the small crack between her legs that keeps coming back to her, and even the sweet scent.
They were all the more annoying because they seemed to bring out his deep, secret desires.
“Mistress! I really can’t do it! Do you seem easy enough because we’ve been a little nice lately?”
Then, perhaps tired of pretending to be friendly with him, one of them violently knocked over the chair he was sitting on and stood up.
“It’s been a while since you got hit properly, right? You abandoned Pyarjar, so there’s no one to stop you.”
“Anyway, you criminal bastard. When I say nice things, I’ll blow a place to meet the lady secretly.”
The other guys got up one after another and threatened him. There must be some really stupid ones. When I thought it was the limit.
“What are you guys doing?”
A woman’s cold voice was heard and stabbed them. When they looked back in bewilderment, there was Helena, who was dressed perfectly even on a rainy day, glaring at them with sharp eyes. But his gaze was more behind her than that. Because there was a girl with a mask. He must have come looking for a dying herb.
“I-that’s it…”
“It’s nothing. I was about to leave soon after the story was over.”
“Tsk, see you later.”
The guys were taken aback by the appearance of Helena and the girl, and soon ran out of the store as if they were running away. Even so, they seemed to think they were right when they whispered to him as if they were threatening. But now it didn’t bother me that much. Normally, Helena would talk to him and take her herbs, but for some reason the girl came up to him before. In her hand was a crumpled piece of paper.
“Do you know what this is?”
A picture of a plant was drawn on the paper the girl held out.
“Why are you looking for this herb?”
At his words, the girl opened her eyes wide and took a deep breath.
“You know… Do you? Are you here?”
“No. At least it’s not a plant that lives on Lantua.”
“Oh, I see.”
Seeing her girl turn away in disappointment, he hurriedly grabbed her.
“Now, could you really just talk to me for a moment, just the two of us?”
At his words, the girl looked puzzled, but she looked at Helena.
“…It’s just a moment.”
Helena seemed to glar at him for a moment, but to her surprise, she obediently walked out of the store. It seems that she has gained a little bit of trust because of her previous work.
“What brings you here?”
“Could you tell me your name?”
He didn’t even know her name until now.
“I’m Belka.”
“Belka…”
She thought it was a really fitting name. He calmed her anguished heart by recalling her girl’s name. I don’t know how many regrets I’ve regretted thinking of that night. I resisted the urge to strip and eat this slender girl right now. He wanted something bigger from her than that, so he calmly opened her mouth.
“Belka. Would you like to go out with me?”
He couldn’t help his heart pounding with anticipation, even though he knew he might be rejected.
“I’m sorry. I have someone I like.”
But so resolutely. His heart froze as he never thought that he would be rejected without the slightest hesitation. Who the hell Who are you to make such a face? As if remembering the other person, his heart was charred by the small but vivid, very lovely smile that appeared on the girl’s face. Soon, he gnashed his teeth as the girl turned around as if calling for Helena. He realized it the moment he saw her expression.
The fact that it would be absolutely impossible for him to win a girl’s heart innocently. If so, drawing is the opposite.
“‘Raidou'”
I have no choice but to take it by force. But the next moment he realized something was wrong.
“Ah…? Wow!”
“Miss!?”
A shocked golden light looks back at him and Helena catches Belka in surprise as the girl’s model collapses with a scream. At least from her outward appearance, he hadn’t done anything, so Helena hurriedly went back, holding her in his arms and only the herbs he had prepared for her, assuming that her girl had cured her chronic illness, but he could see. The reason the girl fell was not because of a chronic illness.
“…Kuh, haha!”
Belka was a witch. She is more special than anyone else.
