Elf Slave Knight 19

Chapter 19 – Three Way Meeting (2)

============

He accepted Leticia as his new disciple.

Like Alone, she strongly refused to be called ‘her master’, but she insisted that she be called ‘teacher’, saying that she wanted to continue to be taught by her.

Even the teachers at the academy were elves.
To the high elf, she was no different from an elf or a human, so they decided to call her teacher. Towards the end, she thought to Leticia’s arrogance as a high elf that Yushin would become a tired disciple in a different way from Alone.

“Hello teacher.”
“Uh.”

Leticia greeted.
Yushin nodded her head at that greeting.

“Huh.”
“These days, I often come to the academy. Has the incurable disease been cured now?”
“It’s not an incurable disease.”
“Well, fools can’t be fixed.”
“Who-who is stupid?!”

Alone and Leticia continued their war of nerves.

In the meantime, Yoo-shin moved her steps with a troubled expression on her face.

I don’t like to deal with
If I dealt with those two high elves, half a day might pass by. Yushin, who decided to read the history of Liberia’s elves in the library, sent the two students to the classroom and wanted to enjoy a quiet reading time.

“The history of the Liberia Elves? You should just learn from me. Even if you look at it like this, it’s a perfect score for history.”
“Ugh, history…”
“Which high elf got around 20 points? Isn’t that enough of a traitor? Let’s just go to the land of humans.”
“Who is a traitor! I just don’t care about history!”
“To think that the Elf country, which values ​​history, would say they have no interest in history. You are so amazing.”

Can’t you just learn from your sister?

Yushin wanted to say that to Alone, who was enraged by Leticia’s teasing.

320 year old Ardena.
It was a high elf like a living, breathing history book. If she asked her, wouldn’t she teach her tricks without knowing anything?

“I have a master!”

Alone walked closer and crossed arms with Yushin. Leticia’s face blushed at Alone’s bold skinship with her close contact with Human without hesitation.

How with humans…
That’s human male and that blatant!

Was it too stimulating for a lady from the Santander family? Her face was red and she didn’t know what to do. While angry at Alone’s behavior to monopolize Yushin, he couldn’t find the courage to engage in such a bold skinship.

“Why are you so attached? I’m not a body with an owner. Although the owner is a body.”
“Since my older sister is Master’s owner, in a way, I’m also Master’s owner, right? It’s convenient to think of it as a common name.”
“If her sister and her brother were to separate, they would divide me in half by dividing the property.”

Allone laughed at Yushin’s words.

* * *

Alone followed Yushin easily.

It was natural.
Because it was the human who gave hope to her life, like her own incurability.

At first, they were looked down upon as being a human race. But now it was different. She felt a lot of interest in Yushin, to the point that she inadvertently thought that she wanted to develop a closer relationship beyond the teacher-teacher relationship.

“Master!”

Alone clung to Yushin.

It was after Leticia came.
It seemed that he was afraid that Master would be taken away by the girl from Santander.

It can’t be without Master. Because you’re the person I shouldn’t be without. I like Master. So, I want Master to stay by my side forever. Alone, who did not know how to express that feeling directly, tried to express it by surrounding it with his body on purpose.

‘Master is my teacher. No matter how clingy Leticia is, Master is our family’s slave. I will never let Master go. He will follow you wherever you go.’

The person who proved the value of my existence.
The person who showed me the way to the Mana Blade that seemed absolutely impossible.

Not just a human
Not just a slave.

For Alone, Yushin is a swordsman he respects, a benefactor who taught him, and a target he secretly develops a love affair with. For an inexperienced high elf, the feeling of love is too fast… But one day you will learn that this feeling is love.

“Master, when will the day come when I will be able to freely use the mana blade like my sister?”
“Soon. If you look at the growing trend, you’ll soon be on the verge of triple amber. I mean, it’s so unfair. The tribe of high elves. What is so fast?”

Allone laughed.

I was very happy when Master said that I had potential and that I was growing rapidly.

A benefactor who acknowledged and proved my worth. Aside from his family, a human named Yushin Gilead was the first. It was natural for Alone to follow Yushin. Like a baby bird following its mother, he spent time with Yushin, following him around from Valencia Castle to the Academy.

“Master is another one.”
“Right.”
“You said you came from another world? What kind of place is this world, anyway?”
“Everywhere people live is the same. There wasn’t much of a difference. If I had to pick one other thing, would it be that there were no elves in the world I lived in?”

A sun-drenched rooftop.

I had a leisurely time with Alone and Yushin, who had skipped classical literature classes.

I thought the number of skips had decreased, but Allone ran away, saying she couldn’t hear as much as classical literature. It was an Alone-like decision to run away and see something painful and unbearable. Yushin, of course, did not object to that. Because she was like that when she was a student too.

“No elves? Then there would be no beauty like me.”

What kind of confidence do you have?
At that, Yushin’s eyes turned to Alone.

Of course, Alone was a beauty.
Although she was more like a beautiful girl than a beauty.

Blond hair and ivory-white skin. Her eye smile, which she shows occasionally, is particularly attractive to the point of dizziness. But even so, the reason Alone is only seen as her sister is probably because she is extremely young compared to her peers and looks younger because of her small physique.

“Hmm, what a beauty…”
“Why why?! I am pretty enough.”
“I’d like to think you’re over-conscious, but you’re a beautiful woman. If you look at it objectively. Because it looks like there will be a line of men courting me.”
“Go, even if I suddenly praise, nothing comes out…!”

Alone turned her head away, blushing.

She did not expect that she was suddenly praised for her beauty. She thought she would be teasing her as usual, but she was taken aback by Yushin’s remarks as she praised her own appearance with a serious expression.

My heart pounded.
This is the first time ever. My heart is beating like crazy at compliments that don’t mean much. It was to the point of doubting whether he had heart disease. Alone kept her head turned and took a deep breath, thumping and controlling her throbbing heart.

“There are also beauties in the kingdom of Valois.”
“Are there any beauties in the human world? Of course, it’s not as good as our elves, who are called the race of beauty. In particular, we high elves are more beautiful than elves.”
“My fiancee. No, is it the fiancée…? It’s a one-sided relationship with her family.”

Yushin muttered.

It was a mumble that didn’t mean much.
However, it must have been a shock to Alone when he heard the story, and he shouted at Yushin with a look of embarrassment on his face.

“Hey, fiancee?! Master had a woman too?”
“What are you so surprised about? I am twenty-four I don’t know your elves’ standards, but from a human point of view, it’s natural.”
“If you think about it that way, my older sister has already passed the age of marriage…”
“Don’t compare me with your sister. It’s different from the race.”

Allone was greatly perplexed.

A woman to Master,
Was there a person who promised to marry in the future?

It was like a thunderclap.
Having a fiancée in her home country would mean that there is a possibility that Master misses her fiancée and returns to her homeland. Of course, she told me last time that she had no intention of returning to her homeland, but it was impossible to know when people’s hearts would change.

“No, even though it is a fiancee, it is a story that was decided unilaterally by the other side. Furthermore…”

Yushin said later.
But those words did not reach Alone’s ears. Because Alone was already taking it very seriously.

* * *

It was at dinner time that Alone heard from her sister Ardena that an envoy from the kingdom of Valois was coming.

Their goal is the release of prisoners.
The purpose of the delegation was to bring Yushin Gilead, who had been captured by the Elves of Liberia, back to his homeland in exchange for a ransom of 10 billion aether, twice the amount of 5 billion aether.

Allone protested vigorously.

“No! Master will never let you go! My sister is Master’s owner. Can’t you stop me from going?!”
“It’s up to Gilead to decide.”
“But Master is your sister’s…”

You’re a slave
Alone didn’t dare say anything behind it.

Stop me from going
I wanted to shout to prevent them from returning to the land of humans. It was because it seemed that Master would return to his homeland if he did not stop it now.

‘Master said he had a fiancee…’

If you don’t stop now,
Might go back for real.

Allone bit her lip.
I don’t want to lose Master. He hates it even more than being taken away by Leticia. I want you to stay by my side

Anxiety crept in.
Fear crossed.

Before long, Alone put on an expression as if she had made up her mind. I couldn’t let Master leave like this. I wanted to stop him by any means at all.

* * *

As Yushin revealed his position to Ardena, he had no intention of returning to the kingdom of Valois.

Who is good
Even if he returned to the military department of the Kingdom of Valois, he would take responsibility for the defeat and be referred to a military tribunal.

The old generals of the kingdom were typical kkondae. Are there idiots in the world who will return to the military, overflowing with all sorts of absurdities and irrationality? The subordinates were wise. Knowing that, I decided to stay in the Elf country. Yushin also decided to follow that opinion.

Smart.

“Can I come in?”

As I lay on the bed and was lost in my thoughts, I heard a knock and a high elf girl’s voice from beyond the door.

It was Alone.
The second daughter of the Valencian family.

What’s going on at this late hour?
Children grow taller when they go to bed early. Of course, Alone is 21 years old, past adulthood.

“Come in.”

Yushin said.
Eventually, the door creaked open and Alone came in.

“Talk… I want to… Have something…”
“What story?”
“Have you heard of the story that an envoy is coming from the Kingdom of Valois…?”
“Uh. Your sister told me.”
“…I see.”

Alona struggled to open her mouth.

As if she had something else to say, she pursed her lips as she spoke.

What was this little high elf trying to say? He’s probably asking you to stay in Valencia. He concludes that he won’t go back anyway, but Yushin decides to prank Alone for a while to make fun of him.

“When I return to the kingdom, her fiancee will be waiting for me, right? The beauties who love me unrequitedly will welcome me. Even so, it’s quite popular in the kingdom.”

The fact that Yushin’s statement is a lie is something that can be understood with a little thought.

He is sympathetic
Didn’t even have a girlfriend.

That tone is the level women hate. The chances that this man, who had no idea of ​​a woman’s heart, would be popular with women were very slim. However, Alone, who had made up her mind to somehow prevent Yushin from returning to the kingdom, was driven into an urgent situation where she had no time to think rationally.

“Oh, I know! That Master is anxiously awaiting her reunion with her fiancée!”

Not really.
At Alone’s words, Yushin denied it inwardly.

“So I…!”

Alone, who was flushed like a tomato as if it would explode at any moment, paused for a moment, then shouted again as if she had made up her mind.

“I’ll make you forget about your fiancée!”

Yes?
Allone’s cry made Yushin harden.

A high elf girl grabbed his strap.
Then, as he untied his strings, he opened up his pure white skin.
