Chapter 153 – 153. The Roxfield Engagement (2)
================
Contrary to concerns, the Roxfield family boasted the same majesty as a fortress.
Even if countless militias raid the Earl of Roxfield, as long as Troy Roxfield and the mighty Roxfield Knights exist, they will never be able to destroy the Roxfield family.
In the end, was it a vain thing?
Yushin, who was assigned the best room among the rooms located inside the mansion, lay down on the bed and thought of the two disciples who would be training hard at this time.
‘As long as Lord Troyd continues to protect his place in the Earldom, there is nothing to worry about….’
Now I feel relieved to see that the Earl of Roxfield is safe.
Iron-Blooded Counts and Steel Knights,
A well-trained army and territories loyal to the Count.
Even though the entire kingdom was engulfed in turmoil, it was as quiet as the Earldom of Roxfield, as if time had stopped. It is said that refugees are coming from all directions to escape the war, but the damage suffered by the Roxfield family was non-existent.
“Brother, can I come in?”
Smart.
A knock was heard along with Allen’s voice.
Yushin looked at the door with surprised eyes.
Knocking before entering the room!
A mad dog from Roxfield who kicks in the door every day!
He had never knocked on the door before coming in, so it was all the more surprising because he had thought, ‘Couldn’t he have a disease that knocks him down if he knocks?’
“Come in.”
When Yoo-shin gave permission, the door opened and the blue-haired woman carefully entered.
Arlen entered her room, looked around her, and then let her breathe a sigh of relief. Because she was finally freed from the gaze of her mother, who kept watching from afar.
“Because of her mother, I can’t live because of her notice.”
“You look happy for that?”
“No it’s not!”
Seeing Allen grinning while she complained, Yushin smiled and said,
Her family… ,
To be precise, she seemed happy to be reunited with her mother.
But Allen, with her disingenuous personality, struggled to grumble that her mother’s overt surveillance was a burden. The proof was that her cheeks were apricot-colored.
“That… , What did you talk about?”
I mean, it’s rude.
She said as if Allen muttered.
In response, Yushin pinched her lips, which had been stubbornly closed.
“What kind of habit do you say to your father? Then you said no.”
“Ooh! Boobb!”
Yushin said as if admonishing her, and Allen replied with her pouting expression while holding her lips.
“He asked me to marry you. You think you’re going to set up a date?”
“Blow?”
At the words that followed, Allen put on a surprised expression and opened her eyes wide.
Yushin let go of her lips.
Then Allen asked in an urgent voice.
“That, so? What did you say, brother?!”
“I said I was fine.”
“Kuhm! Big!”
Embarrassed by her frank answer, Allen cleared her throat as she turned her head away from her blushing bite.
Her face was so hot that she couldn’t make eye contact.
Allen Roxfield, whom she usually aggressively confronts, wonders where she has gone, and the countess’s daughter, who looks shy like her new bride, is only ashamed.
“But now is not the time to leisurely discuss a wedding date. The kingdom is at war now. There is no way we can safely get married in the current situation where the kingdom is talking about destruction.”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I wiped it all out?!”
Allen expressed his will in eerie words with a shy expression.
For the sake of marrying her beloved brother, she can wipe out all of them, whether it be the kingdom army or the militia. Allen casually put carnage and slaughter into her mouth.
“Wait, don’t act recklessly.”
“Okay.”
Yushin held out her palm.
She rested her chin on Yushin’s palm as Allen pushed her head back like her dog.
She said, “Since we have confirmed that the Roxfield family is safe, she intends to return to the Liberia elven country again. I’ll probably leave tomorrow or so.”
The period promised to Ardena was two days.
But today it took three days.
Because she unintentionally reunited with Alphonse in Lourdes. As she accompanies him, she is forced to extend her due date.
“Brother.”
“Why?”
“That….”
Allen, who was staring straight into Yushin’s gaze, seemed to have a hard time saying something that she couldn’t bear to say.
Soon after,
She opened her mouth hesitantly.
“Can I not go?”
Here with me,
As she told her father,
Couldn’t she just live here?
Allen revealed her true feelings even though she knew Yushin would never accept it.
“You said you could marry me too.”
“It did. Because I like you too.”
Having said that, Yushin put her hand on Allen’s head and slowly stroked her soft hair.
“But that doesn’t mean I’m going to disappoint the expectations of those who are waiting for me. Sorry.”
Yushin apologized.
At his apology, Allen shook her head, trying to make her laugh.
“Nope…. I’m sorry for asking something strange.”
I bit her lip hard.
Angry yet resigned,
But she never wants to admit it.
Allen responded with a smile, trying to suppress her complicated feelings in her heart.
“Still, I’m glad you didn’t say you were leaving me here. If my brother said that, he really wouldn’t forgive me.”
“I have my eyes too.”
“What are you talking about, a person who has no basic sense. The most insensitive thing in this world is my brother.”
“I don’t want to hear from you.”
“Huh!”
In response to Allen’s grumbling while hiding her sad expression, Yushin pulled her arm.
The center of her body collapsed.
Allen, who was sitting on her bed, fell down and overlapped her body with Yushin, who was lying on her bed. She was close enough that if she leaned a little further, her lips would touch.
Whoa.
I could feel my breath.
Allen said she felt her heart beating like crazy.
“Thank you for understanding me.”
“Oh, it’s not because of you… ?”
“Then you don’t have to kiss me.”
As Allen turned her words around, turning her gaze to her side, Yoo-shin smiled meaningfully at her and asked a question that seemed to open her mind.
Allen’s body stiffened.
As she licked her dry lips with her tongue, she indirectly revealed her desire to kiss her right now.
If you don’t kiss in this situation, when the hell will you do it. I want to kiss you right now I wanted to have a deep yet sweet kiss that confirms and exchanges affection.
“Do it, do it… Kiss. Because I want to do it with you.”
“If only I could be a good child.”
“Okay! Okay because… !”
Allen responded in an urgent voice to Yushin’s actions that continued to annoy him.
She pursed her lips.
I meant to kiss you.
Her cherry lips parted a little, and she carefully stuck out her tongue. No matter how many times she kissed her, Allen still acted like a sukmaek.
“Lord Gilead, I brought you something to drink.”
It was a woman’s voice.
It’s a familiar voice too.
Jump.
The door opened and a dark-haired beauty came in with a tray of two glasses of lemonade.
She probably brought drinks herself on behalf of her ladies-in-waiting for her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend (her prospective husband). She didn’t knock, as if it was a surprise (母傳女傳), as she opened the door to the room and came in, she witnessed the situation happening inside.
“…….”
“…….”
Yushin and Allen, who had been enjoying an intense time, hardened as they were. It was as if he had been subjected to petrification magic, turning him into stone in an instant.
Will there ever be such an awkward situation?
The situation she didn’t want to be found out, she was caught by someone she didn’t want to show.
In the appearance of the two men and women who have become plaster statues,
Diana escaped the couple scene with a perfect moonwalk that made Michael Jackson cry.
“Ho-ho-ho. Then I’m done.”
Cooong.
There was an unusually loud sound of the door closing.
A few seconds after the room door closed,
Diana’s voice echoed through the hallway.
“From now on, close the area around the room here.”
“Yes!”
“Soon we will see our sweet grandchildren, ho ho ho!”
The Countess’s cheerful laughter began to echo through the hallway.
Yoo-shin, who was staring at the closed door again with a puzzled expression, turned her head to look at Allen.
Just as expected,
Allen’s face was red and swollen, as if she were about to explode. She looked like she would explode if pricked with a sharp needle. Judging by the tears welling up in her eyes, she appeared to be traumatized to a level close to panic.
“Ugh, ugh!!”
To the point of crying,
To the point where I can’t even say the right words
She shuddered like an active volcano on the verge of exploding, frozen in her blue hair.
* * *
Themass. Gubelas. Berban.
The Earl of Roxfield’s three sons set off on their way back after taking enough rest.
Has won several victories.
It was a victory more fitting for the Roxfield family.
The young hounds, who would later become the equals of the kingdom of Valois, were showing off their expertise while shrugging their shoulders.
“Isn’t that what makes Themath the son-in-law of the royal family?”
His third son, Berban, giggled and played a prank on his eldest brother, who looked just like his father and was blunt.
Thermath was silent.
Instead, her second son, Gubelas, spoke.
“We, the Roxfield family, did not suppress the rebels for a reward, Berban.”
“But isn’t it something you can have at least a negative feeling about what’s good, brother? This youngest child only wishes his older brothers the best.”
“Put saliva on your mouth and speak.”
Verban burst into laughter at Gubelas’ answer.
Seo Maths, who was listening quietly in front of her, also responded by raising her mouth.
“Wait, stop.”
Summath, who was leading her sick horse through the city, noticed something about her and raised her hand.
The army of the Roxfield family has ceased.
After stopping thousands of footsteps, Thermath witnessed that a wagon was being escorted by about 30 mercenaries.
It was an ordinary wagon carrying supplies. At first glance, she might think that there is no particular problem, but her quick-witted Seomas sensed her oddity when she saw the wagon escorted by mercenaries.
“Why are you like that, brother?”
Gubelas asked.
At that, Themass winked at Berban.
“Search the carriage.”
“Yes?”
“Isn’t it strange that there are so many mercenaries attached to just one wagon? It’s not even a wagon from an aristocratic family.”
“Come to think of it, I see. There is some truth in what you said.”
Berban approached the carriage.
Then, the mercenaries escorting the carriage reacted like bees and blatantly raised their guard.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m trying to find out what’s in the wagon.”
The mercenaries trembled at Berban’s words.
Those who were impatient even secretly put their hands on the hilt of the sword hidden inside the hood.
“Please wait a moment.”
Among the mercenaries, a man who appeared to be the captain hurriedly approached and intercepted Berban as he approached the carriage.
The family knights put their hands on the hilt.
If the lowly mercenaries showed suspicious behavior, it was to charge them on horseback and slaughter them all.
“We are in the process of transporting the ordered goods after receiving the order from the royal family of Valois. Here’s the spell book that proves him.”
“Items from the royal family?”
At the words of the mercenary captain that he had been called by the Valois royal family and was transporting goods, Bervan turned his head and looked at Themath.
Items ordered directly from the royal family.
If that were true, searching the carriage would be an act of disrespect to the royal family.
Thermath opened her eyes sharply.
A thing requested by the royal family.
An order document proving what the royal family ordered.
Thermath tried to look at the items the royal family had ordered in the midst of the worst war situation with flames raging all over the kingdom.
“I wonder what that item is.”
Thermath asked.
And as she reached out to the mercenary captain, she ordered him to hand over the order book proving that it was purchased from the Valois royal family.
