Chapter 90 – To Get What You Want (2)
“Now…. What did you say?”
Sharply refined mana rises like a string on the elf’s skin.
I was appalled by her seemingly impatient rage her, but Essilli was looking at the elf without a hint of fear.
“I said I would give you a flower bed. If you still don’t understand, can I tell you that it is a prostitution fee?”
“…… Young lady You won’t do anything good by provoking me.”
“Provocation? It wasn’t me who started the fight first, it was you.”
The chilled air sinks even heavier.
After staring at Esily for a while, the elf caught her breath and got off the bed.
Putting on her shoes that she had taken off, the elf who tapped the heel of her shoes on the floor stood up as usual.
“You seem to have a misunderstanding.”
A cool voice comes out with a clear intention.
Breaking out in a cold sweat, I raised my upper body and looked at the elf’s side of him. It is terrifying to see the pupil that has lost its vitality that contains the image of Esili.
“I wasn’t arguing with the lady, I was just telling the truth.”
“Ah. Is that so?”
However, as if I was the only one who was feeling the fear, Essili responded calmly to the elf’s words of hers.
“Then I want to tell you that I have told you the truth. I can’t help it if you deny it, but it’s true, right?”
The elf’s fingers twitch. The elf, who had been biting his teeth like someone who had heard an unbearable insult, came to his senses his all winter long.
“For some reason, it seems that the young lady is going over the limit. Even though I’m a slave, do you think that as a daughter of an aristocratic family, I have a face to keep?”
To the elves, this was a kind of threat. The threat that if you use my power, you can easily destroy the Pelgarin family and drive you to death.
Right now, it would be just a simple farmland street, but if Esily’s sarcastic remarks continued, it could become a reality.
‘We have to stop… !’
Thinking that I should play the role of mediator, I got up and got off the bed.
It was the moment when he hurriedly put on slippers and tried to block the two.
“Face?”
Seeley snorted at her and glared at the elf fiercely.
“If you can, do it. I mean, bring Essilie Pelgarin down to the bottom of hell.”
“You look confident, young lady. Do you think that is impossible?”
“No. If it’s you, it’s possible. However, I will not stand still.”
I am not formidable enough to lead the Pelgarin family to their downfall without suffering any damage. If you can handle a mud fight, attack first.
“And, I would have told you before. That there is a secret from you that only I keep.”
The elf’s shoulders tremble at Esily’s declaration of war. As if there was something that shouldn’t touch Esily.
‘…… What did the two of them talk about when I wasn’t there?’
Seeing that Esily didn’t notice the elf at all, it seemed like the two of them were talking about something, but the problem was that I couldn’t figure out what they were talking about.
‘Did Esily catch the elf’s weakness?’
Judging from the current situation, I had a strong feeling that Esily knew the evil of the elves.
But that wouldn’t be enough information to turn the situation around.
If he had acquired enough information to banish the elves to the great forest, Esily’s personality would have kept it secret and not revealed.
‘Then, did I obtain information that only takes effect when I inform the elf?’
So, by disclosing the information to the elves, they must have put their hands on each other to put them on an equal footing.
I couldn’t figure out what it was, but I was hesitant to answer, as if it was fatal to an elf.
The elf’s fists, which had been silent for a long time, clenched tightly. The elf struggled to open his lips and muttered in a crawling voice.
“Don’t tell the master……. After that, I really won’t be able to stand it anymore.”
The disheveled smoke was representing the elf’s feelings of his.
At the point where the elf stepped back, Essilly nodded briefly as if she didn’t want to dig further into it.
“I have that kind of eye too. Sir Theorard.”
Esily gives her glance at me. She nodded her head as if to come over here. In her nervousness her, as she was about to pass her her elf her, her hand her, which had reached involuntarily, grabbed the sleeve of her dress her.
Turning around, she was glaring at Esily with elf-watery eyes.
“…… Don’t take it He is my master.”
Esily’s blue eyes looked at the elf with contempt.
“You, stop being selfish. Sir Theorard belongs to no one else.”
The elf’s hand his trembled slightly at the knife-like answer. The elf lifted her head and looked up at me, perhaps feeling that she could not defeat Essili.
Under the flowing silver hair, the water in the round eyes arouses pity.
My conscience sounded the alarm, but I couldn’t deny Esily’s words either.
“Let go.”
The coldly spoken words made the elf’s hands open.
I raised my arms as if shaking off the clothes.
“…… Return to congratulations Reflect on what you did there.”
“Reflection.”
“Okay. Acting on your own without my master’s orders is the worst thing a slave can do.”
The elf silently lowered her head and half-opened her eyes.
At first glance, the face her looked sorrowful, but that would be just smoke anyway. Having made up my mind, I spoke again.
“Can’t you hear me say go away?”
“…….”
Only then did the elf move and passed Esili. After confirming that the sound of footsteps echoing in the hallway had gone away, I sighed in relief as I sat down on the bed.
While watching me like that, Seeley put her hands together with an apologetic expression.
“…… I’m sorry. I had no intention of arguing, but my emotions were running high and I was rude in front of Sir Theorard.”
It was like a student confessing his sins to his teacher after committing a mistake.
It was funny and cute, but I couldn’t help but laugh. It was because the sad image of the elf from earlier was remembered with sincerity unlike before.
‘Why are you doing this….’
What must have happened to the brain? Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to feel sorry for the elf who has been threatening me all along.
Shaking her head to clear my thoughts, I looked at Esili.
He must have been the benefactor who saved me from a crisis, but he is lowering his gaze as if he is sorry for raising his voice his in front of me, which tickles my love interest.
“Okay.”
I let out an unsteady voice and gave a half-cooked smile.
“Rather than that, why did you come to see me in the morning? There must be business.”
“Ah.”
Only then, as if remembering her original purpose her, Esily swallowed. The spleen look on his face her was a bonus.
Maybe a war broke out…… ? As I held my breath as I was all nervous, Esily opened her mouth as if spitting out.
“Go, to the lake together…… I want to go…… That’s it, Her Highness the Princess…….”
His voice her, which was gradually diminishing, trembled shyly.
Perhaps what Esily wanted to say was ‘Since Her Highness is preparing to evacuate, Sir Theorard will have to go back to the mansion soon, so I want to go for a walk at the lake together before that’.
It must be some kind of date request. When she’s arguing with an elf, she spits out her words without hesitation, but at times like this, she’s acting like a girl in love, so I smile naturally.
However, it was difficult to comply with Essilly’s request right now.
“I understand your feelings, but please leave the room for now.”
“I’m sorry. I’m presumptuous……”
“That’s not it. Can’t you see my clothes right now?”
I just woke up. Of course, it was said that he was wearing pajamas and his hair was messed up.
If you go out in this state, you may be beaten for disorderly conduct.
Eseely, noticing my outfit belatedly, she widened her eyes.
“Oh that…!
Her golden hair her flutters into the air and her face her flushes red. She didn’t know what to do, and as Seeley stomped her feet, she hurried out of her room.
“I’m sorry!”
Thud! I laughed out loud as the door closed a step too late. Even though she seemed like a great woman in many ways, she looked sloppy at times like this.
*
After a while. Theorard, fully clothed, proceeded to the entrance of the castle with Essilly.
Since it was Essilly’s insistence to ride the horse prepared by the stablekeeper in front of the drawbridge and go to the lake, Theorard agreed without any objection.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the castle, the old guard with a relaxed smile put the spear he was holding behind him.
“Aren’t you Viscount Theorard? Where are you going with Miss Esily? If, by any chance, His Excellency the Count finds it, I have to tell you, so I would like you to point me to the destination.”
“Oh yeah. I deserved I am going to go for a walk to the nearby lake with Essilly.”
“Is it a lake? It’s good~ When I was young, I often went to play with my current wife. Other than that, the two of them look really good together. You should have a quick meal.”
Theorard and Esily’s faces turned red at the guard’s words. They were arguing with each other, but they didn’t hate what the guards said.
“Hmm?”
The guard, who had been watching the two of them happily, opened the way as if he knew.
“The old man was the chief. Come on.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Theorard coughs and walks ahead. After silently following Theorard, Esily took out a gold coin from her bosom her and put it into the guard’s hand her.
“I, thank you too.”
“Miss…?”
Leaving behind the guards staring at her incredulously, Essilly hurriedly caught up with Theorard.
As I left the entrance in a slightly awkward atmosphere, I saw a horse tied to a nearby tree. The stable keeper had prepared the horses in advance.
The problem was that there was only one word. Theo Radga, who had stroked his chin questioningly, looked back at Aesili.
“Strange. We are two, so why is there only one horse?”
“Is that so?”
“Hmm. In this case, there is no choice but to have two people on one horse. Aren’t you uncomfortable, Esily?”
For some reason, Esily couldn’t meet Theorard’s gaze and answered timidly.
“Boo, it might be inconvenient…….”
“Isn’t it? Maybe call the stable keeper and prepare another horse-“
“Yeah, yes!”
Seeley, who had cut off his words abruptly, raised his hand and pointed at his words.
“Is that kid the biggest horse in the stable? In addition, he said it is made to wear a two-person saddle, so even if two people ride, it will not be uncomfortable at all…….”
He stopped talking and shut his mouth as if he wanted to say goodbye.
Because I had confessed to the crime without even knowing it.
“Right.”
It wasn’t Theorard who would miss that point.
Theo Rad nodded his head with a serious look.
“Essilly, you seem to have truly mysterious eyes. He didn’t even look closely, but he’s pretty sure he’s the biggest horse in the stable.”
“Sir Theorard…….”
“In addition, the stable keeper prepared a saddle for two just in time. As if someone had requested it before-“
Back. Esily was pinching her side of her, and Theorard looked to her side of her in surprise. And then, without realizing it, I burst into laughter.
Seely, at the revelation of her crime, she had an almost weeping look on her face her, flushed with her shame.
