Chapter 41 – A High Elf’s First Love (3)
===============
Why did Bariteon, who should be in command of the southern front’s garrison, show up at Bria Academy?
He is a very impulsive person.
Unlike other warrior generals who fight for honor and pride, he only fought for his own needs and desires.
It was only natural that Ardena despised him. It is because the behavior of Bari Theon, who has power but does not use it for others, and uses it only for his own comfort and preservation despite having position and power, is extremely selfish.
“Me? I’m not interested in men.”
Yushin said.
The instructors belonging to the Trident Company stood up like a swarm of bees and shouted at his behavior of speaking nonsense toward Bariteon.
“A cheeky human bastard!”
“What disrespect to my master!”
But Yushin didn’t care.
Because there was a strong owner right next to it.
Humans, the 4th class, must never injure the 1st class, the high elves. However, he can ‘duel’ at the command of his master. Since Ardena was in the same seat, he had no reason to back down.
“Wait, you guys. If you guys suddenly bark, my voice is drowned out.”
Bariteon said.
At that, his disciples stepped back.
After silencing the raucous crowd, Bariteon approached Ardena and asked a question.
“So Ardena, how much will this human slave cost? I’ve heard the rumors I bought it for 5 billion acres at the Pamplona auction house. I’ll give you 5 times that, 25 billion ether. Not bad business, right?”
Barytheon stretched out his five fingers.
Total 5 times.
Bariteon said he wanted to purchase the human slaves that belonged to the Valencian family for five times the price.
At that proposal, Bariteon’s disciples were surprised and breathed in vain. There was no way Bariteon could afford such a large amount. I will definitely order them to pay. It was clear that he would tell him to pay the price instead, as he had always done. His disciples couldn’t help but cry tears of blood.
“Refuse!”
Ardena shouted.
While glaring hard at Bari Theon, I rejected his offer.
At her vehement refusal, Baritheon raised both his hands. Judging by the gesture, he seemed to already have in mind that Ardena would refuse. His offer was merely a prodding.
“Well, of course it is. I expected it. You’re a slave you care so much about, but there’s no way you’ll give it to me. Even if I offered you 10 times instead of 5, you would have refused.”
A slave is a thing.
A convenient thing to buy and sell.
But Ardena was different.
He kept Yushin as a slave, but treated him as a person, not as a slave. If I had only thought of him as a slave, I wouldn’t have felt a throbbing feeling for him. I had no intention of handing over Yushin to anyone.
“That’s right, Mr. Yangachi.”
“I am not a bully, I am a bariteon trident. I’m in charge of the 3rd seat of the warrior commander. I heard that you are in charge of the 3rd seat of the Seven Swords of the Kingdom…The same 3rd seat.”
“I know. What an amazing coincidence.”
“If you had been my slave, you would have shown me very well what the end of pleasure is. I treat the guys I like with great hospitality. It wouldn’t be a high elf, but they would have provided elves, half elves, humans, and even beast tribe women as concubines.”
Five.
This child.
He’s a good negotiator.
Yushin listened closely to Bari Theon’s proposal, but since there was a high elf female knight right next to him, he firmly rejected the offer.
“Yushin Gilead, let’s sparr with me.”
Bariteon brought out a second proposal.
I want to fight the Seven Swords of the Kingdom.
That was the real reason Bariteon came to Bria Academy.
“Bariteon.”
Ardena took a step forward.
Glaring at Bari Theon, she opened her mouth.
“That is a question for me to ask.”
“You are not wrong.”
Yushin helped Ardena’s words.
Every move of a slave is determined by the will of the master.
In other words, it was Ardena, not Yushin, who Bariteon had to seek permission for. At Ardena’s words, Bariteon scratched the back of his head as if it was a headache. It was because there was no way that Ardena, who despises him, would calmly allow it.
“Is it just sparring? I’m also a high elf who sticks to the rules. Don’t do anything serious It’s just a story about men competing for supremacy.”
In Bari Theon’s words, there was a premise that he would win unconditionally.
That makes me feel bad
Yushin wanted to put his fist into the face of this bully-looking bastard right away.
However, he had no intention of embarrassing Ardena, so he decided to keep her mouth shut. Everything is a matter for Ardena to decide. As a slave, you only have to obey your master’s orders.
* * *
After rejecting Bariteon’s proposal, Ardena pulled Yushin’s hand strongly and left the cafe.
She unluckily stepped on poop.
Ardena regarded Baritheon as much as dog poop by her roadside.
“I never thought I would meet the warrior commander.”
Yushin muttered that and shrugged his shoulders.
It is an unexpected encounter.
I can’t believe the 3 warriors came directly.
Isn’t that proof that my reputation is widely known? Yushin, like Ardena, was uncomfortable with Bariteon, but he didn’t feel bad about his fame spreading throughout the Elf country.
“Why, with such a tense face.”
Yushin looked at Ardena’s worried expression and asked.
Despite that question, Ardena’s face showed no signs of straightening. She seemed to have a problem to ponder.
“The Bariteon Trident is the warrior commander in charge of the southern front. He is effectively in command of the army.”
“He’s a great asshole.”
“The subordinates and disciples under his command are all high elves. They are also promising prospects whose success has already been promised. If you go to Baritheon, he may be treated best among the slave class.”
He said in a slightly worried voice.
Yushin let out a sigh at her words.
Should I say that I am unnecessarily strong? How could you be so kind to someone who was nothing more than a slave? It has a kind and kind beauty owner, and her tears are just covering her eyes.
“If I go, what will Allen do in Valencia Castle? This lady is talking about something really big.”
“Yeah, it was…”
“I don’t want to serve a bully as my master. If you choose her owner, she is definitely the beauty owner.”
I didn’t want to get ahead by licking the ass of a blonde bully.
If you serve, you are the master of beauty.
Although she was a 300-year-old virgin, Ardena was one of the most beautiful women among the high elves.
Besides, it wasn’t like they did something like that in the middle of the night. She didn’t want to part with Alone either. She didn’t want to part with Leticia either. Yushin was very satisfied with his current life, so he had no intention of leaving the Valencia family.
“Is that so…”
At Yushin’s answer, Ardena turned her head while blushing.
It was evident that he was shy.
Could it be that she thought that if she said she would go to Bari Theon, she would let her go.
Of course, if Ardena had even the slightest bit of her selfish heart, she wouldn’t let go. Her sister’s graduation exam is right in front of her, and there’s no way she let her go. But she looked shy, and it seemed that she had a little heart that if she had said she wanted to go, she would have let go.
“Now it is time for the lecture to end.”
Yushin said while looking at the clock tower located in the center of the academy.
3pm, 5 minutes ago.
It just happened to be the end of Alone and Leticia’s lecture.
Yushin, acting according to the set schedule, was like a housewife. She is meticulous and planned. Could it be that she actually had an aptitude for being a nanny looking after her child? Yushin, the former Seven Swords of the Kingdom, was a babysitter as a second job.
“I thought I was dying of boredom!”
“Are you a complete tax thief, eating all your monthly wages like that?”
The classroom door opened.
Students who were tired of classical literature came out in droves with expressions of boredom.
The students who came out were shocked to see Ardena waiting for Alone, leaning against the wall. It was because the 4 seats representing the Liberia elves were in front of the classroom.
“Ardena warrior leader!”
“As expected, Ardena-sama is always beautiful.”
Ardena was the idol of her academy girls.
Dignified posture.
The title of undefeated female knight.
And the noble beauty that she maintains unchangingly was enough to fascinate the hearts of female students. She said that Ardena had received numerous love letters from her female students.
“I hope it’s popular.”
“Kuhm.”
Yooshin threw a joke.
On the other hand, Ardena cleared her throat as if her countless gazes directed at her were burdensome.
“Sister?”
Alone appeared among the female students who gathered like a cloud.
There are pressure marks on her face.
It was clear that she had a good night’s sleep during the lecture.
After that, Leticia also approached. She was looking at Ardena with a flushed face, as if she hadn’t expected to meet Ardena outside her classroom. As Leticia had admired her Ardena since her childhood, her meeting with her Ardenna was the greatest fortune for her.
“Ah, hello…!”
Leticia summoned her great courage and bowed to Ardena.
It’s an unusual look.
She was Leticia, who always acted like an arrogant young lady, but in front of Ardena, she only shyly treated her with pure eyes full of longing.
“Are you Alone’s friend?”
Ardena asked.
Leticia answered that question.
“Yes…! Yes that’s right!”
Yushin and Alone opened their eyes wide at Leticia’s answer.
Who’s friend?
The girl who had refused to be Zinta’s friend, saying she couldn’t tarnish the reputation of the Santander family, said she was a friend.
Yushin and Alone stared at him with shocked eyes. At their gaze, Leticia’s face turned red as if it were going to burst at any moment. With her face blushing like a tomato, she sent a message of support to Ardena.
“Cheering, I’m doing it… Ardena, Nim…”
“Thank you, Lady of Santander. Thanks to your support, I will do my best in the future.”
“Yes…”
At Ardena’s courageous answer, Leticia’s eyes turned moist.
Seeing this, Yoo-shin witnessed a vision of lilies blooming around them.
* * *
Although Bariteon was aiming for restoration, he eventually had to retreat in the face of fierce resistance from Ardena.
He let out a deep sigh.
Ardena Valencia. She was also ferocious, befitting an old maid who had kept her virginity for her 300 years.
“Bariteon-nim, news has come from Valua Kingdom.”
An elf approached.
The elf was also a beautiful woman like the lieutenant who usually assists the bariteon.
Bariteon was often accompanied by pretty and beautiful girls. Isn’t she the flower of both hands, the romance of all men regardless of race. Baritheon asserted her own desire without hesitation.
“They said they filed a judgment against the Holy Empire.”
“Certainly, if it’s the Holy Empire, it’s a place that serves as the head of the nations established by humans.”
“Yes that’s right. It is probably intended to borrow the power of the Holy Empire to secure new recruits for Gilead. If the Holy Empire steps forward, we, who depend on the Holy Empire for trade, will be in trouble. If the Holy Empire unilaterally cut off trade, the economic shock to the Elven nation would be great.”
“That’s difficult…”
Bari Theon scratched the back of his head.
The Kingdom of Valois asked the Holy Empire for sanctions against the Elves. It must be the intention to settle the case through diplomacy.
So far, the Holy Empire has expressed its neutrality on the issues between the Kingdom of Valois and the Elves of Liberia. This is because the two countries are essential allies in the conquest of the Demon King’s army. However, since it was unknown whether the Holy Empire would continue to express neutrality, the Elven nation had to come up with countermeasures.
“From what I hear…”
“What?”
Bariteon asked.
As soon as the words came out, the female secretary opened her mouth.
“I think you will ask for the condition that the knights who subjugated Agares, the demon king of tyranny, be temporarily borrowed as reinforcements on the condition that you hand over the recruits of Gilead, the God of Restoration, to the Kingdom of Valois again.”
In the Holy Empire, there is a Diablo Slayer who killed one of the six demon lords.
The one who subdued the demon lord of tyranny.
I heard a rumor that the knight who killed the demon king was in the Holy Empire.
In response, the Elf nation requested that the Demon Lord Slayer in the Holy Empire be sent as reinforcements in exchange for Gilead, the God of Restoration, in order to subdue the heat wave demon lord occupying southern Liberia. There was an expectation that if the Demon King Slayer defeated the Demon King of Heat, he would be able to recapture the southern area occupied by the Demon King’s army.
