Chapter 187 – To the Place Where Important People Are Waiting
Next day.
From early in the morning, the servants of the villa were busy moving. It was because Viscount Theorard and Lady Esily had agreed to return to their hometown.
“Move your luggage this way. Oh wait! It’s a villa thing, you bastard!”
“You stupid child. Of course, the lady’s things should be loaded onto a wagon with a swan on it. No matter how dark you are, if you don’t know the Pelgarin family pattern, you can use it.”
“Hey, move! They want to leave as quickly as possible, so let’s finish it quickly!”
The servants moving around busily and exchanging words echoed throughout the villa.
Theorard arrived at the living room while thanking them and found Roylen resting.
Sitting in front of her table, sipping tea with her sleepy eyes, Roylen hastily put her glass down as soon as her eyes met Theorard’s her.
“Aren’t you Viscount Theorard? It will take a little longer to move all the luggage, but how…….”
“I can’t sleep at the thought of finally going back to my hometown.”
Theorard, with a kind smile, pointed to the chair opposite.
“May I join you?”
“Yes? Aigoo, of course. Please sit down.”
Nodding his head, Theo Rad pulled out his chair and sat down.
Roylen called one of the servants passing through the hallway and asked him to bring out a teacup.
“Have a drink, please.”
With a smirk, Roylen picked up the teapot and poured black tea. The black tea, which swayed for a while as it collided with the cup, slowly leveled out. The faint fragrance rising above it warmed the mind and body.
“Thank you, I will drink.”
Theorard, who thanked him by bobbing his head, raised his glass and moistened his lips.
Its appearance is neat and full of grace, and it gives a sense of satisfaction just by looking at it. Roylen, who was watching Theorad happily, spoke in a hint.
“It is an honor to have tea with this precious person. It has a different flavor than when you drink it alone.”
“That… It is too much praise.”
“It’s not an exaggeration. Isn’t there a saying that tea is good for drinking with virtuous people? From my point of view, there is no one more virtuous than Viscount Theorard…….”
Roylen stopped talking and shut her mouth. Uh hmm! Roilen, who coughed while looking at her surroundings her, continued her words as if whispering.
“Forget what you just heard. The person with the highest virtue is none other than Her Highness her Benelia.”
This person is quite a snob. Still, Roylen’s cubic tablet didn’t come that way. Theorard smiled lowly and nodded her head in agreement.
“I will keep that in mind. You’ve been emptying her mage tower for a long time, but it’s okay.”
“Well. I’m staying here at Her Highness Benelia’s call, so there shouldn’t be any big problems. Students have a gap, so if you like it, you will like it, but you won’t hate it.”
“Then I’m glad. I was worried that Professor Roilen was hurting her because of me.”
“Haha. He worries about everything.”
With her leisurely gesture her, Roylen, holding a teacup, lightly quenched her throat. But she is a little slow in putting the teacup down in her hand. After she hesitated for a moment, Roylen opened her mouth openly.
“Viscount Theorard. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but…… He said he allowed the use of artificial rain magic as a weapon.”
What would change if I came and hid it now?
Theorard let out a low sigh and affirmed.
“Because there is no other way. I am not a being with enough power to resist the huge flow of history.”
“Okay. Still, I hope you don’t worry too much. It is not likely that His Highness asked permission to weaponize for the purpose of killing. Also, if Your Highness succeeds in seizing power, the artificial rain magic will be used as Viscount Theorard intended.”
“Thinking about it makes me feel better. Thank you very much.”
“Oops. Rather, I should give thanks. Viscount Theorard has contributed his strength for his for a new world.”
It’s a new world Theorard, who was brooding over Roylen’s words, asked a question that suddenly came to him.
“By the way, Professor Roylen, for what reason do you have Her Highness Benelia?”
“Well….”
This is a difficult question to answer simply.
Like everyone else, Roylen didn’t decide to follow Benelia from the beginning. There were many accidents, and in the process, she came to serve Benelia as the true king.
Of course, I couldn’t explain it to Theorard one by one. Even if you stay up all day, you won’t be able to explain all the reasons.
“Viscount Theorard.”
Said Roylen.
“No matter how much the Mage Tower is based on merit, it is close to impossible for a mere member of the low class to rise to the position of a full professor. This is because in order to become a full professor, you must obtain permission from the imperial family.”
Still, Roylen was active as a full professor at the Mage Tower. He transcended the gap of status and was recognized for his skills.
He knew without saying who the person who acknowledged that skill would be. It must be that Benelia recognized the injustice her Roylene was experiencing and reached out to her.
I couldn’t tell the details, but I could understand why Roylen was swearing her allegiance to Benellia.
“Viscount Theorard.”
At that time, a servant approaches and bows his head politely. It was the woman who had taken care of the elves before.
“I’m here to tell you because I’ve loaded all my luggage.”
“Ah. Thank you all for your hard work. I’ll be there soon.”
“All right. Then.”
The woman bowed her head again and walked to the other side. Theorard also thought that he had to start slowly, so he grabbed the armrest of the chair, and Roylen hurriedly stopped him.
“For awhile! Before you leave, I would like to give you a small present…….”
Dunroylen’s expression her as she rummages through the pockets of her overcoat brings her question mark to mind. Roylen, who had been looking into her pockets for a while longer, felt her doubt her and took out everything in her pockets her.
Some of her candies are caught in her Roylen’s hands in her. It was cinnamon and ginger flavored candy. Only then did Roylen think that she had left the present, and she broke out in a sweat as she panicked.
“Sorry. I thought she must have taken it…….”
“If it’s a gift, don’t you already have it?”
Theorard spat out the words playfully and picked up the cinnamon candy in Roylen’s hand. She tore open the wrapping paper, put it in her mouth her, and smiled benevolently, as if satisfied.
“It tastes good. Thank you for the great gift.”
Having said that, Theo Rad politely bowed his head and walked towards the hallway. Roilen, who was staring blankly at her back, had no choice but to correct her own thoughts of her.
‘His Highness Benelia. I’m sorry, but I think that young man is more virtuous than Her Highness her.’
She was Roylen, who was very impressed with Theo Lard, who said the cinnamon candy was delicious.

Theorard came out of the villa and unconsciously looked up at the sky. The sky is clear after the dark clouds, and it makes you feel good.
It’s really nice weather to go back home. The thought of seeing the faces he missed again made his heart race.
Theorard lowered his head happily and paused on his way down the stairs.
Because he found Essily and the elf talking not too far away.
I wondered if they were fighting again, but there was a gentleness I hadn’t seen before in the two of them talking in front of the four-wheeled carriage.
‘Have we become friends… ?’
Mainly, Esily spoke and the elf nodded her head, but the relationship between the two did not seem too bad, seeing as she smiled awkwardly in between.
Since she was watching it because it was a strange sight, she turned around and shook her hand with a smile.
Afterwards, she has a brief conversation with the elf and pushes him on the back. Judging by the shape of her mouth her, ‘Come on. I’m waiting for you.’
Did you have the courage to do so? Taking a deep breath, the elf trotted towards Theorad. Essilly, watching the figure from behind her, was guided by her coachman and boarded the carriage, which was Pelgaro.
I don’t know why, but it seemed that she encouraged me to spend time with the elves.
“I…”
The elf, who had been walking hesitantly, raised her head. There was a nervousness in her red eyes that I couldn’t normally see.
What is so awkward The elf, who had been fidgeting for a while with her hands together, muttered in a crawling voice.
“Master…… I will say……”
A little surprised, but the intention is clear. Theorard said softly.
“You mean you don’t want to reveal your identity in front of other people.”
“Ah, yes…….”
I understand. There is no need to make noise around you by revealing your identity. She had no intention of forcing the elf if she didn’t want to.
“Okay, let’s get into the carriage. Shouldn’t she go back to her hometown?”
“Ah. No, that’s right……”
She answers, but her feet her don’t move. I don’t know why she’s being so timid. Theorard smiled lightly and pulled the elf’s hand.
Then, as she climbs into her wagon, the elf follows cautiously. As she sat down on the seat her, the coachman greeted her and closed the door.
The signal to depart went off, and the Pelgarin carriage started first, followed by the Deham family’s carriage. Inside the rattling carriage, Theorard looked away quietly.
“…….”
I see an elf stiffened with a lot of tension. It’s been like this ever since yesterday.
It was so cute that Theorard couldn’t hide his desire to play a prank. Theorard, who had built a plan in his mind, quietly opened his mouth.
“Come to think of it, it reminds me of the cute kid I met at the villa. He was a kid who liked me very much and followed me well. He said he likes me and asked me to hug him.”
The elf’s face turns red. Grinding his teeth, his hand his on his lap his was clenched into a fist, but Theo Rad didn’t care.
“You have no idea how cute that child was. One day he said he had something to say to me and asked me to lend him an ear, and he said let’s get married-“
“It is a lie!”
A high-pitched voice echoed throughout the carriage. He shouted so loudly that even the coachman who drove the carriage in front of him looked back.
Perhaps recognizing that his voice was louder than expected, the elf put his legs together with a face that was even more red than before.
No matter how you look at it, it was like admitting defeat. Still, the elf moved his lips as calmly as possible, probably not wanting to be beaten.
“I-I don’t remember ever saying that…….”
She tried her trump card, the amnesia card, but Theorard only gave a small chuckle.
“I don’t remember. That’s strange. I didn’t say that the child was you.”
“Ah.”
The elf, belatedly aware of her own mistake her, grabbed hold of the hem of her dress her.
“Uh, well…….”
She could not control her embarrassment of her, and even tears came out of her eyes of her.
