Chapter 158 – For a Precious Person (2)
Theorard had a dream.
It was a humble dream of making a wreath in a garden full of marigolds.
Theorard, who painstakingly made the wreath with his little hands, got up from his seat and walked to the center of the hill. A witch wearing a ragged robe is reflected in her innocent eyes.
“Why…”
The witch’s murmur is heard like her resentment of her. But Theorard did not hesitate to approach her sorceress and place a wreath upon her frizzy head her.
The witch lifted her head in a daze, frowning at her and biting her teeth. The witch, who had been looking at Theorard as if she couldn’t understand, suddenly exclaimed nervously.
“Why! Why are you like this…… !”
The screaming cry soon turned into sobs. I feel sorry for the witch who buries her face with her hands and cries sadly. Theorard, sitting on his knees, kissed his lips her in pity.
“I don’t know why you hate me. However, I think I can be friends with the witch. So please tell me the name of her witch.”
The witch did not make sense of Theorard’s words to her. Because she couldn’t tell whether she was acting or telling the truth. However, the warmth that permeated Theorard’s words her was an undeniable truth.
Sorrowful laughter mixes with sobs. The witch, who was shaking her shoulders and wiping away her tears, muttered in a crawling voice.
“My name is—”

Her closed eyes open. The night sky with a crescent moon enters her half-opened eyes.
‘…… Dream?’
Theorard, who had been blank for a moment, groped for his heart her. No wounds His blood His does n’t even flow. His whole body ached as if he had been bruised, but there was nothing wrong with his body.
‘I…… He must have died.’
Didn’t you confirm that the arrow pierced your heart? Theorard turned his head beside him, feeling puzzled by him, and sighed.
‘Why?’
His elf his was down. There was no movement, just exhaling a dying breath with her pale complexion. Embarrassed, Theorard hurriedly stood up. The creaking body of his was causing pain, but that did n’t matter now.
“Elf!”
Doesn’t answer. Theorad, who grabbed the elf by the shoulder, shouted out loud with earnestness.
“Calm down! Why are you lying in a place like this!”
A cry for a miracle reverberates through the clearing. However, the elf did not wake up or come to his senses.
Only then did Theorard realize. That the elf used some kind of magic to save himself. Because of that, he said that he was dying after becoming a wolf.
“Be impertinent….”
Theorard, biting his teeth, supported the elf’s back. Theorard grabbed the hamstrings with his other hand and held the elf in his arms.
“Did you know that I would like it if you risked your life to save me! Did you know that I would be happy if I threw my life away like straw!”
Theorad, who poured out his anger on the elf who couldn’t hear him, struggled to stand up while holding the elf in his arms. The wind blowing makes the elf’s hair flutter.
“Don’t make me miserable. If you die like this…….”
His hand his on the elf’s shoulder his trembled. It was hard to look down at the elf’s tear-stained face of his. Theo Rad raised his head and moved his steps resolutely.
“…… What am I supposed to remember you for?”
Theorard spent a lot of time with the elves. He had many fearful and frightening memories, but there were also many pleasant and happy memories.
Still, Theorard does not know the elf’s name. Her tribal name was no substitute for her. So she couldn’t let Theo Rad die the elf.
She could n’t possibly accept her futile death of her.
“Don’t die on your own. Keep breathing I will somehow save you…….”
She must hold on to the elf’s dying consciousness. Theorard carried her heavy steps as she continued to speak to the elf.
Theorad persevered, though her body her, coming back from the dead, did not listen to her. Every muscle in her body was burning, but Theorard persevered.
It was because the fear that the elf might die the moment she stopped her steps her pervaded her base her.
Theo Rad didn’t show her tough expression on her, and she hugged the elf a little closer.
“Remember when I took your pudding and ate it? You don’t know how savage your expression was then. I made a ridiculous threat under the pretext that I ate the pudding without permission…….”
Theorad, out of her clearing, walks in one direction. If she had been alone, she would have waited for morning in the clearing, but since she was with the elves, she could not.
Somehow she had to get out of the mountain and find someone to help. As she led her increasingly weary body her, Theo Rad continued to talk to the elf.
“Because you are so confident, I thought you had a lot of experience. But after experiencing it, you and I are no different. Do you remember When you pouted, pouted and left the room…….”
My body shakes with a headache. His weakened arm was her was heavy as if it were about to fall off, but Theo Rad did not let go of his hand his that embraced the elf.
“…… It’s all here. Be patient. You can see the medical center not far away.”
There was no such thing as a medical facility. Because there were trees and bushes all around. Even so, the reason for lying was to encourage the elf not to give up on life.
One by one, the elf’s breath was getting lighter. Now I can’t even hear the sound of breathing. It was when Theorard, who was afraid of it, gritted his teeth.
— Viscount Theorard! Where are you!
─ If you can hear our voices, please answer!
In the distance, a bright light flickers like a haze. Realizing that these were Benellia’s soldiers with torches, Theorard shouted with all his might.
“It’s here! Here i……!”
The back story didn’t follow. The tension was released and Theorard’s body collapsed. The small commotion was enough to attract the attention of the soldiers.
─ Viscount Theorard is over there!
─ Get a stretcher! Hurry up!
You can see the soldiers rushing forward.
“Good thing. I’m so glad…….”
Even in his clouded mind, Theorard did not let go of the elf in his arms.

“Not a child of any kind. Why are you suddenly asking me to teach you swordsmanship?”
In the backyard of Deharm Manor, Vaynon put her hand on the sword’s pommel, sarcastic at Harvey. Harvey raised his eyebrows and glared at Bainen, perhaps disapproving of that.
“Hey! I even wielded a sword when I was younger! If you find persimmons, one person can do it!”
“Would you mind? It’s okay, so let’s get our posture right. If it’s something simple, I’ll correct your posture…….”
Beinun stopped talking and looked up at her sky. It’s because the shadow started to fall on the full moon that was fine.
‘What…… ?’
I’ve seen the occasional eclipse of the moon in nature, but I’ve never seen such a rapid eclipse.
As she looked up at the moon, Beinun lowered her head at the presence she felt around her. She feels the cool gazes looking at her. She patted Harved on the shoulder with her serious face.
“Grandpa.”
“Yes? Why?”
“Enter the mansion, take your family and escape to the castle. Right Now.”
David, who had been blank for a moment, nodded his head. It was because it was the first time I had seen Bainen emit such a bloody spirit.
Harvey grabs the wooden sword he brought and hurries to his back door. Bainen, who was watching the scene, called Harvey for the last time.
“Grandpa!”
David turned his head. Bainen smiled broadly as he looked at Harvid. Raising his hand his and shaking it lightly was a bonus.
“Thank you so much!”
It wasn’t too difficult to decipher what that meant. David, in tears, roughly wipes his eyes and runs into the mansion. Because I knew it wasn’t an idle situation to say goodbye.
After confirming that Harvey had entered the mansion, Bainen sighed and lowered his hand.
“It seems that the boy is wandering around here and there with courage. It’s something I couldn’t have imagined in the past. You really behave like a man these days. Very proud.”
Bainen laughed briefly and looked back. Before you know it, you can see the watering cans that have escaped from the trees and bushes.
Ten killers confronted Beinun and drew her weapon her. Doesn’t attack first. Tolask, who was in the center of the shooters, took a step forward.
He was Seymour’s right-hand man and an executive of the ‘Black Dog’, who was ordered to eliminate the family members of the Deharm Mansion.
“As rumor has it, it feels good. I thought you hid everything.”
“Of course you have to feel good. Do you think I became a knight without any talent?”
“But. He has been famous since his days as a mercenary.”
“Suddenly, what kind of bullshit-“
“Heavenly Hawk.”
At one word from Tolask, Beinan shut his mouth. Because it was not very pleasant that her hidden past her was exposed.
“It was a legendary mercenary. It has led to victory in every war he participated in. Although the end wasn’t very good. Isn’t it? The mercenary captain Falair.”
Bainen’s expression hardened. Bainnon put his hand on the hilt of his sword and chanted coldly.
“You must know that going behind the scenes is not polite.”
“The article is done. Is this the time to be polite? I thought you would understand, having done all the dirty things.”
Bainen was speechless. He was just glaring at Tolask as if he would kill him at any moment.
Although it was an immediate situation, Tolask took his time and put his hand his into his arms. Tolask took a pouch from his bosom and tossed it at Vaynon.
Click-
A few gold coins fall out as the mouth of the bag hits the floor and opens.
“Esteban Empire gold coins. If you put in enough, you will be able to eat and live for the rest of your life. If you spend it sparingly, you will be able to have a little entertainment.”
“…… What are you doing?”
“What are you doing? He wears a knight’s coat of arms, but isn’t he from a mercenary after all? So he wants to make a deal. He takes the money and leaves his mansion. Then we won’t be after you either.”
You don’t have to fight if you don’t want to fight. At that, Beinun nodded her head and picked up her bag of money. Bey Nun’s eyes twinkle with interest as he checks the gold coin inside her.
“Huh, true. You put too much into it.”
“I can add a little more if you want-“
Grabbing the base of her pocket, Vaynon vigorously swung her arm around. As the mouth of the bag opens, golden coins tinged with brilliance are scattered in all directions. Some of them crashed into Tolask’s body and fell.
Tolask frowns at him, and silence surrounds him. With a small chuckle, Vaynon threw back her empty pouch and grabbed the hilt of her sword.
“Thank you for the favor. If you can earn money and protect your life, it is the human heart to want to do so. By the way….”
A ferocious smile forms on Bainun’s lips as she draws her sword.
“Then there is no romance. You son of a bitch.”
