Chapter 633 – My Lord (6)
Homelin’s soldiers let out loud shouts in response to the howling of monsters.
A fight that can’t be compared to the tutorial, no, a war… My legs were shaking.
A battlefield filled with fresh blood, broken weapons, and a truly hellish battlefield. I felt like crying out of awe at the people fighting for their lives there. They will also have loving family, lovers, and friends waiting for them… Are you not afraid?
Soldiers holding out their spears with courage even after seeing thousands of soldiers surrounding hundreds of people.
The numbers may have been smaller, but the momentum was on Homelin’s side.
… However, even if their spirit was good, they were by no means invincible,
In the end, one by one, the soldiers collapse from exhaustion…
-Suuuuuch
“… “Huh?”
Just as the wyvern flying in the sky was about to attack the soldiers, Copen, who was guarding me next to me, raised his cloak and blocked my view. They say that if you watch more than this, you might get trauma… No, isn’t it already too late? Hearing from beyond the cloak… The sound of someone screaming. It made me sad to think that that was someone’s last will.
“Miss, it’s dangerous to stay here. “Now go back to the barracks.”
“… “It’s dangerous?”
“Yes, I might get hit by a blind arrow.”
Yes, it must be dangerous since we are at war.
However… Right now, in front of me, at the forefront, that person is fighting. He’s bleeding profusely, encouraging his soldiers, and making wounds on his own body. That person is a lord… Is it okay to be in the most dangerous place like that? Isn’t that person truly dangerous?
Gillian de Kruger is a villain, but…
Still, he couldn’t help but be worried.
“Master, it’s okay.”
“… Lie.”
“It’s not a lie.”
“A lord is usually the last one… Well, you have to command the soldiers from this position right now. Because that’s the safest. Because I can’t die. But why does that person… Are you leading the soldiers from the front like that? What if I die like that?!”
I didn’t particularly like him.
If I were to be honest, he was closer to the disliked one.
But even so, he is a person who knows… He was the one who hugged me until this morning… I can’t let you die. As for the person with the highest status here… My heart trembled for that person on the front line who neglected his own life.
Haha, that’s usually the case.”
However, unlike me, Copen seemed very relaxed.
“So you’re saying that Homeln is different?!”
“That’s right. In Gomeln, the lord stands first.”
“Why?!”
“Because it is the strongest.”
“… Strong?”
“And the master is very greedy.”
“If you are greedy… “
“They are doing this to gain merit by killing at least one more person.”
“… Really?”
“Haha, I claim that, but… Could that be possible? You stand at the forefront in order to save and protect at least one more person. This is a fact that everyone except the owner knows. “The master cares about his subordinates and citizens more than anyone else.”
Copen’s voice exudes strong trust.
I couldn’t tell whether what he said was true or a lie.
Maids who happily provided themselves even when asked to provide ‘sexual service.’ Is it because he is someone who shows it through his actions that I respect him so much? Copen and its users are like that… I finally understand a little bit. Gillian de Kruger was a contradictory villain.
***
The subjugation ended two hours later.
From now on, it was my time, so it was time to fulfill my responsibility as a ‘healer’.
Wounds so deep that bones are visible and limbs twisted in odd directions… Although they were difficult to face, I was able to overcome them. These are people who risked their lives to protect the territory… You can’t run away just because you’re scared. I used Prune’s Solace to stop the bleeding and Adine’s Miso to suture the wound. Thanks to this, my skill level also increased.
“Thank you!”
“Thank you so much!”
What’s interesting is that the patients’ expressions are unexpectedly bright…
Everyone was feeling proud. And some of them were very happy that the residents would be relieved. There are many injured and casualties… Everyone is in a good mood. Soldiers who smile from the heart, not a fake smile.
Thanks to them, I too was able to overcome my depressed mood.
Since we won, it was right to enjoy the joy.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“No way. “I’m not the only one who has suffered, right?”
“No. I heard it was very helpful. Thank you very much.”
However, there was still one thing left to do.
“Uh… But what about you, lord?”
“He is resting in his private barracks.”
“That person… “Have you received treatment?”
Haha, it would be nice if you could receive it.”
“Yes?! Well, that sound… “
“Because he himself stubbornly refused.”
“Where is that? “If you’re injured, you need to get treatment!”
The lord did not show up until the end even though it was clear that he was covered in wounds. Perhaps because I was untrustworthy, I was disgusted with him for refusing treatment, so I went to see him. I don’t really care if he dies or not… This is a deal. For the sake of his friends, he had to be treated.
“Who told you to come in on your own?”
“You really… “Kyaaaaah!”
“Ha, it’s noisy.”
“It’s covered in blood!”
“So what are we going to do?”
“What if I apply a bandage without stopping the bleeding? If you do this, the wound will only get worse!”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“What do you mean it doesn’t matter?! And then what if it festers!”
Bright red fatigue… A scream came out as a result of the lord being covered in blood. How can a man called the Lord of Homelin be so indifferent to his own health? Fortunately, the limbs appear to be unharmed, but… There was a wound here, a wound there, and there was a huge wound on his face, which was his only good point. Still, that person, that damn man, didn’t seem to have any intention of receiving treatment.
As a healer, I could not accept that fact.
“Copen, take him.”
“Wait a minute, Mr. Copen! “Just treatment!”
“Hmph, the bitch who can’t even walk properly due to exhaustion of magical power is acting brave.”
“… What, what?!”
“Are you planning on collapsing while trying to heal me? If you want sympathy, you’d better stop. “You can recover without four years of help, so don’t be arrogant and get the hell away.”
“… “
But I couldn’t cure him.
The lord who kicked me out with an unusually harsh tone of voice.
Copen, who followed, made an excuse to me. He said that he usually does not receive treatment because he is a healthy person, and that treating the soldiers was a condition of the deal in the first place.
But one way or another, my feelings were hurt.
I couldn’t feel good about having my pride scratched like that.
-Tadadadak
“Oh, lady?!”
Don’t be rude and get out of here…
That person is doing this because he is worried about me!
I didn’t like that, so I went into the barracks again and used Adine’s smile.
“When someone falls, it means who falls… “
-Sharp
In the end, I passed out…
Still, I was able to erase the scars on my face.
***
It’s an unfamiliar ceiling.
No, it was too small to be a ceiling.
The sound of horseshoes.
Ah, this is inside a carriage.
“Miss, are you out of your mind?”
On the carriage ride back to the castle, I heard a nagging voice. Copen’s advice is that if she is a woman, she should respect her body. I literally want to return it to the lord… It won’t work, right? I nodded quietly and he began his second excuse. I think he’s trying to save his face somehow… Is it because he’s a grandfather? The story had more captivating power than I expected.
“… “Didn’t you say it was a sacred nation?”
“The beings that priests distrust the most are knights, and knights of the frontier.”
“Anyway, it’s like that… “A monster wave is coming, so why not just watch?”
“At first, I still pretended to help. However, when the soldiers rebelled against the priests who did not treat only their master, their pretense gradually decreased. As a result, the only healers left are apprentice healers… Because of that, there was a lot of damage.”
A lord with inhuman resilience and a priest who doubted him and cut off his support. Copen explained that when the political fight between the two forces caused damage to the people of the territory, the lord decided to sacrifice himself. Just hearing his words made the lord feel pitiful.
“But surprisingly, an oracle came down, and Sarang, a healer, was there. How interesting this is. Truly a miracle… That’s right, it’s like a miracle from God.”
An unknown god sent us to the continent of Arken…
Was it for the sake of the believers who suffered like the Lord?
For some reason, I had that thought.
“Then… Is it really okay to leave it alone?”
“What do you mean, master?”
“Yes, that person.”
“I need to rest for a few days… Yes, you will be fine.”
“Then what… “Thank goodness.”
Haha, are you worried?”
“No, I’m not worried… “I’m just worried.”
“Oh, if that’s true, how about serving the master?”
“… Service? What service?”
“I mean fellatio.”
“What, what, what?!”
“This time, I will ejaculate properly and give my master pleasure.”
“Mi… Are you crazy?! No, and did you know?!”
“I heard it from Ariel.”
“Why is that child… No, better than that! He said he should learn to respect his body!”
“Yes, but… “Fellatio is not particularly harmful to the body, is it?”
“Anyway, this country has strange sexual concepts?!”
I ended up screaming because Copen had said such an absurd thing. But is it because he is, after all, a grandfather? A pervert named Copen knew how to persuade me. The old man took out a magic tool for surveillance and showed his friends who were eating. Surprisingly my friends… I was eating food worse than oatmeal. So for them… There was one more thing to deal with the lord.
“Isn’t this a bit too much?!”
“Paying more than this is a waste of taxes.”
“Didn’t you just say it was a miracle from God?”
“It was a story that only applied to young ladies.”
“You speak really well!”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
So, you’re telling me to ask the lord to improve my friends’ meals because I’m going to perform fellatio for them? A really ridiculous, ridiculous suggestion. Angry, I glared at Copen and accepted his offer. … Yes, I accepted.
“Hehe, the master will be happy.”
“Oh, no?! I have no intention of making you happy, do you? Just… Since you’ve had a hard time, as a way of comforting you… Yes, no… No, it’s for real friends! Mr. Copen keeps saying weird things, so it makes me weird too! I’m not that pervert!”
“I know. To sum it up, don’t you want to suck your master’s cock?”
“That’s not what you mean?!”
Really, it was all for my friends.
-Tiring!
[Quest Evaluation: Grade A]
[Thanks to excellent performance, the quest was successful.]
-Tiring!
[Congratulations. Obtained fellatio skill.]
The status window congratulated me without knowing how I felt, but…
Well, you said you didn’t even want to have fellatio skills?
“Hmph, whenever you enjoy sucking, you suddenly turn a straight face. Was that your true intention?”
“It’s not like that… Oh, I don’t know! There is such a thing.”
Ugh… Anyway, I was able to complete the deal with the lord.

“Give up, Siwoo. Love is her, she must be clinging to that man by now, right? You, too, have felt how sinister the lord is. Sarang might be thinking of resisting, but… Is it as easy as it sounds? You’ll get over it eventually, right? Therefore… Huh? Let’s be happy, just the two of us.”
In the late evening, Min Si-woo’s expression hardened in the prison, which was still more comfortable than the first day.
It was because of Lee Ara’s blatant words and actions that tempted him as the days passed.
Even though I know Min Si-woo’s feelings… Lee A-ra speaks evilly, saying that Sa-rang will become the lord’s woman.
Although her words and actions were uncomfortable, he still couldn’t push Lee Ara away. It was because of the sin he committed against her. Because I was abandoned once… Unlike before, she has become more honest with herself. Min Si-woo didn’t have the confidence to abandon her twice.
“No, Sarang can’t do that.”
“Hey, you think that’s going to happen?”
“I know love well.”
“What do you know! From that day on, I’ll be getting picked on every day!”
“Iara, you really are!”
“What! What should I do when that is a fact! Or what, you wanted me to get fucked, is this?!”
“… “
“Okay… Are you saying that you wanted me, who doesn’t care much for you, to be raped instead of love?!”
“Ara, that’s not what you meant… “
“Huh, that’s right… You chose Sarang over me, huh… “Aaaaah!”
“Araya, don’t cry.”
“Hey, hug me Siu… “
“Haaaaa… “
I want to deny it, but… It was true that what Lee Ara said was fact. She was so sneaky that she openly touched the breasts of two people, so she raped her lover several times… No, no! That’s not the point! Min Si-woo, who had fallen into a depressive delusion, finally came to his senses.
He had no intention of abandoning her just because her love was tainted.
She is suffering every night and needs to be saved… She was not a cheap woman who should be abandoned because she was raped. She was that kind of love to him.
And what? You’re going to cuddle under that guy?
Min Si-woo believed in the woman he loved.
Moreover, he had the ability to transform his beliefs into convictions.
That is ‘observation eye’.
According to what I learned from the tutorial, the transferees were able to acquire skills through their efforts with ‘purpose’ and ‘will’. For example, ‘horizontal cutting’ or ‘vertical cutting’. And Min Si-woo was able to use his ‘observation eye’ to check the ‘skill list’ of the transferees. So, if, as unlikely as it is, love has really been taken over…
Min Si-woo was able to recognize that fact.
