Chapter 55 – When to Step Outside
3 years is not short, but it is not a very long time either.
But from Veronica’s point of view, it’s been 3 years! As soon as Veronica heard the report from the gatekeeper that her daughter, Sylveria Isis, who had not even been confirmed to be alive or dead, had returned, Veronica stopped all his work.
Although she said that she and her Sylveria were more like her superiors and subordinates than her mother and daughter, Sylveria is her own daughter no matter what anyone says. Her daughter, whom she had held herself for 10 months and gave birth to in pain in her stomach, has spent three years without even knowing whether such a child is alive or dead.
What parent would not worry about a child who has not been contacted for 3 years?
In her mind, she already wanted to run to the gate with tabi and greet her daughter’s life, but Veronica herself is a knight who protects this land, and at the same time, the lord, who is the idol and representative of the people of the territory, and the joy of her daughter’s life I couldn’t show the same private feelings.
As she struggled to dry her tears, which seemed to spill at any moment, she ordered the knights led by Silveria, the female knights who protect the Isis territory, and the silver lily knights to assemble at the lord’s residence.
“Hurry up and get ready! Less than an hour left before the captain arrives!”
-Ancient!
In modern times, just as a red carpet is laid out on the way to a grand event such as a film festival, the members of the knights who gathered in an instant at the news of the direct order of the lord and the return of the knight commander, a luxurious red carpet at the entrance to the lord’s residence. The knights (mostly newcomers) running around burning the soles of the carpet under the carpet pulled out weeds around them and painted the roads with black paint.
Usually, this kind of event is held by the members selected by themselves (with little time) to change into the honor guard and proceed only with the appropriate members, but today it was an order issued too hastily, and besides, the news of the return of Silveria, the leader of the Knights, gave silver light. All of the Lily Knights gathered at the lord’s residence.
So thoroughly, until the end, the members who prepared to greet Sylveria lined up on both sides of the red carpet on the floor and waited for Sylveria to come for tens of minutes.
Multi-faceted multi-
At the same time as the sound of hooves clanking was heard, smiles appeared on the faces of the knights standing on either side of the carpet.
Originally, it was not supposed to laugh recklessly at a place like this, but since the return of the knight commander was a big thing, the members who had plenty of time did not bother to stop it. Rather, they had no intention of hiding their joy at Sylveria’s return.
At the sound of hooves, the knights turned their heads to the foot of the hill where the sound of hooves could be heard, while looking at the same members in front.
And,
Stinging stinging
-?-
With a sound like the sun slowly rising from the horizon, two horns were slowly rising. When the word to come out didn’t come out and only some horns kept coming up, the members started to stir.
Of course, I don’t say it directly out of my mouth, but
‘Captain, are you riding a unicorn by any chance?’
‘Did unicorns have two horns?’
‘Isn’t there usually two? One on the head, one on the crotch… ‘
‘Crazy Year’
“Captain, you are entering!”
In the middle of the debate over whether the animal Sylveria was riding was a horse or a unicorn, the members did not move at attention at the same time as the youngest member shouted.
-Multiple multifaceted
-Deer?!
– Why deer ?!
Suddenly, the pupils of the knights were shaken by the deer that appeared from the horizon of the hill, and they wanted to stir again.
But
Seeing a girl with blue hair clinging to the back of her dazzling silver hair was riding with Sylveria, the knights began to argue with each other with their eyes on the subject of what else she was.
From the looks of her eyes, she is already a daughter, to the point where some immature members even say that she is the hidden child of the lord.
“Everyone, swords!”
When Silveria, a problem that causes confusion as soon as it appears, arrives at the front of the red carpet, the knights lined up on both sides of the red carpet pull out their swords under the command of the vice-captain and raise them high into the sky.
Crack-!
With the sound of her voice, she shouted in unison as she brought the swords held by the members in front of her and her own.
-Congratulations on your return. Captain!
At the same time as the resounding shouts of the members, flocks of sparrows who had picnicd in the grass around the lord’s residence were startled by the sudden loud noise and flew up all at once. All at once, they jumped out towards the surroundings in a disorderly manner to the extent that the word “Hololoro” Came out naturally.
– Aaaaa!! Be punished!!
The gardeners, who had been pruning as usual near the flower bed, suddenly became terrified and running away from the attack of bees and butterflies attacking them. Falling, being stung by bees, rolling on the floor, etc. There was a mess in the flower bed, but nonetheless, the members still greeted Sylveria.
“Whoa… “
On the other hand, Silveria, who was watching the mess in the flower bed as if she was in pain, jumped off the back of Bambi, a stag she was riding, and immediately gestured for her.
“Yes, Sir Sylveria!”
“It’s been a while, Elsie. You suffered while I was gone.”
“No! I’m glad you’re back!”
Sylveria’s mother, Veronica, but not as much as Sylveria’s lieutenant, Elsie, is trying to hold back her tears and sincerely rejoice at the return of her superior.
“But didn’t I tell you before? Didn’t I tell you to hire only the necessary people during spring and summer, and to do it in moderation because this happens when everyone gathers and makes a fuss?”
“That… “
“Are you talking back?”
“No!”
“Then why don’t you tell me why?”
“Sorry!”
“If I’m sorry, will my life as a knight end?”
“Sorry!”
At the words of Sylveria, who pointed to the scene of great confusion behind her and questioned her, her adjutant bowed her head to Sylveria in a bewilderment.
Normally, Sylveria would make fun of her lieutenant in moderation, but she wanted to show her wonderful mother figure to her daughter, Snow White, who was staring at her from behind, so she did it this way, but I don’t know why. The poor lieutenant has no choice but to be rude.
It may seem irrational, but life is originally a series of irrationality.
Just like that, when Sylveria’s shoes were on the verge of flying into the adjutant’s shin,
“I ordered. Gather all the members”
“Mother… “
“Stop it and come in.”
She waited impatiently for Sylveria to come, and at the confusion that came from outside her, she wanted everything at this time and saw Veronica open the door of her official residence.
“Behave well”
“Yep!”
“Snow? You too, come down.”
“Huh! No, yes!”
Snow White, who jumped off Bambi’s back at her mother’s words calling her name, jumped up and clung to Sylveria’s side. I looked at White.
‘Who is it? Who is that child?’
Only the color of her hair and eyes are different, her physique and facial features are similar to that of her daughter Sylveria, Snow White. Seeing such a huge world for the first time, Snow, who is curious about everything, turns her gaze here and there with sparkling eyes. In the end, Sylveria dragged by the hand of
Passing through the red carpet laid out by the members and reaching the permanent residence, Sylveria bowed her head in apologizing to her parents who must have been waiting for her for the past three years and for her immorality of not contacting her for the past three years. Veronica, feeling something strange after patting her daughter’s shoulder without saying a word, is about to approach Sylveria.
“Mom! I’m hungry!”
“Now, wait a minute Snow?!”
Quickly turning Veronica’s attention to him, Snow grinned at her grandmother, Veronica Isis, who was looking at him through her bunny eyes.
“… It doesn’t seem like there’s much to share.”
Veronica looked at Snow White, who looked exactly like Sylveria, but had an innocent smile that she couldn’t see because she was Sylveria, who lived only for her sword in her childhood. Veronica turned her body and entered her residence.
Following them, Sylveria, Snow White, and.
“Bambi! You should be in the nearby flower garden!”
– Pretty much?!
Bambi, a stag who tried to sneak into the palace together but was cut before being cut at the entrance, was cut in an unprecedented way. The chaos in the flower garden did not stop, such as the addition of a gardener who flew through the air after being hit by a deer’s antlers.
