Chapter 121 – 28. Capital of the Empire. (5)
Ahhh.
She saw something so shocking that Alloa sent Allen away on the pretext that she was not feeling well. …… No, it’s true that she actually fell ill from the shock.
Suddenly, seeing something like that…. It was also from Yuffie’s disciple’s man… !
It was so shocking that she almost forgot everything she saw. In her head, only the scene of her happily living with that man keeps repeating itself.
…… I’m still mentally ready…… !
I wondered what a wonderful man he was, and wondered if Yuffie would make such a fuss. I took a sneak peek at him with a curious mind. Of course, it was one of many scenes that passed by, but she remembered it clearly. …… But that’s still in the distant future.
Of course, she didn’t know when the relationship between the two men and women would turn into such a generous relationship, but she was certain that they would become a couple anyway. It’s a prophecy that doesn’t go wrong.
I never thought something like this would really happen to me… !
Alloa grunted and struggled at her strange mood. … Perhaps this is why God did not allow the Prophet to see his own prophecies. Just a sneak peek at someone else’s life is enough to make you go crazy and run wild.
Anyway.
Alloa, bedridden with a mild fever, was confined to a bed for the day. She was, of course, clear the next day, but she lay in her bed for another day, as all her delusions exploded at the sight of her destiny.
And around the corner, a big shot came.
“The old man of Danju is here.”
There is only one person who is referred to as the Danju elder here.
Everywhere I looked, a middle-aged man with a good body who looked like a warrior came to Alloa’s room.
Sword Emperor Magnus.
However, the nobleman who should have held the sword was not holding a sword in his hand but a basket of flowers. I would say that the look is very unbalanced.
“Mister!”
“You said you were sick?”
“Sometimes it is. I am fine now.”
“Good thing. … Oh, do you like flowers?”
“What kind of flower is this all of a sudden?”
“I received a flower gift a while ago, and it wasn’t bad. So I bought one and tried it. … How are you, are you okay?”
“Of course it is good. Thank you. Put it there.”
The Sword Emperor gently put down the flower basket next to the vase, lifted one of her chairs, and brought it close to the side of the bed she was sitting on.
“You haven’t been busy lately, have you? It’s the 10th river, what are you doing….”
“Even though I’m busy, well, it’s not like I can’t make time for it at all.”
“But not long ago, you came to see Yufi unni for a while. …… So you don’t think you came here because of me?”
Geomje, who is not good at lying, smiled awkwardly.
“I was wondering if I could look at someone.”
“What’s wrong with you all of a sudden? Uncle, you haven’t seen this very well.”
“He is a rather important person. … Please do me a favor.”
Then Alloa waved her hand, saying that it was light.
“What kind of request between you and me? If you ask to see it, you see it, well.”
“Thank you.”
“But, what kind of person are you?”
The Prophet was very curious about that. I wondered what kind of person he was and why the Sword Emperor even asked for it.
Then Magnus smiled happily.
“You are a junior with a bright future. …… Maybe he will follow me.”
“Wow. Looks like you’ve found some great talent. I’m curious about everything … Like. I invite you to come anytime. Oh, but who are you?”
“Allen-A member of the Mercenary Corps, a woman named Natasha.”
As soon as the name Allen-Mercenary was mentioned, Alloa was startled and coughed.
“… Are you okay? Are you still not feeling well?”
“Okay, it’s okay. It’s just that I can hear you talking for a while.”
“Oops.”
… Coincidence or fate, this time again, it’s something entangled with that man.
“Anyway… , Can I ask you a favor?”
“Sure.”
“Oh, of course you can’t come. It’s your choice whether to come or not. I have no intention of forcing you.”
“I see.”
The Sword Emperor exhaled lightly and lightly tapped the headrest of the bed with his palm.
“How is the fort? Are you going out for a walk these days?”
“Just to look around the garden.”
“Is your destiny still far away?”
The fact that the Prophet Alloa is waiting for his fate is known to everyone who already knows.
Sword Emperor Magnus asked that question in a friendly, joking way, but Alloa, who had really met him a few days ago, felt his heart sink.
“… Look at that, yethaha….”
If Yufi had been here, he would have even made a joke about whether his fateful partner would never be born.
“Okay. … Then I’ll go.”
“Yes, mister.”
“Care well. Let’s have a meal together sometime. Long time no see.”
“Yes. Bye.”
After showing her warm smile, the Sword Emperor carefully left her room. … And her long sigh.
Haaa….
Allen. Allen – mercenaries. The man. Opponent of fate. Son and daughter husband. Kids had fun Honey. Good
Alloa felt as though her mind was bewildered by all the words cluttering her head like her own prophecies.
· · ·
Am I really fucked up?
Allen could not easily recover from the shock of the incident, when the Prophet Alloa shook hands with him and drove him out in a frenzy. How awful is the future she glimpsed, that woman hates her so much?
…… Certainly, when I think about it, my future looks like it’s going to be a lot of shit.
The determination to become the top 10 in the first place was predicted by a series of tough missions and fierce muddy competition with prominent mercenaries. So, of course, the future can’t be shit.
But if you ask if it ends when you reach the top 10, that’s not the case either. Even among the top 10, the competition is fierce, and even the cubs trying to rise from below had to be kept in check. It doesn’t end when you become a champion, just like you always have to prepare for a title defense. … Just looking at Dagon right now, isn’t that the case? Of course, that bastard was a cheap guy even if he was kicked out.
Anyway, Allen, who was kicked out as soon as he went, gave up the idea of going back there. After all, he already knows the future better than the prophet, who knows the scenario. …… It’s better not to go there again and hear bad things about it.
Returning alone to the lodging where all the crew members had left, he was sipping tea and looking at the peaceful garden. The viola Danju came to visit him as if he had heard that he had returned.
“Ah, sweet lord.”
“Looks like the business ended quickly.”
“… Oh, yes, well, that’s right.”
Allen didn’t bother to say that the Prophet shook his hand and he kicked him out.
The viola sweetheart, who sat across from him, was handed the served teacup and sipped the tea elegantly.
“…… Allen Danju.”
“Yes.”
“Aren’t you curious about what happened between me and Elizabeth Budanju at that time?”
“Of course I am curious. Still, isn’t there a time when not knowing can be medicine?”
“Can you guess?”
Allen looked at the viola troupe and opened her mouth.
“I guess they made a deal. … Well, I don’t know what that means.”
“Right. I made a deal.”
“Okay.”
Of course, he didn’t bother to ask what deal Allen had. Whether you say it or not, it’s a matter of the other person’s heart.
However, the viola player blew it meekly.
“There was a candidate who asked me to support him for a spot in the round of 10. Since we have a relationship in the past, I agreed.”
“… Do you think there will be a fierce battle?”
“It always has been. Sometimes candidates die.”
The viola troupe sent her gaze far into the sky with a light sigh.
“…… Are you tired?”
“I would be lying if I said it wasn’t hard. To be honest, sometimes I just want to put it down.”
“I understand. … There are times when I find it difficult to lead this small mercenary corps, but Danju-nim would be shocked.”
She smiled lightly and said nothing. He just stared at her face in silence.
There was such a long and heavy silence. The one who broke that was the viola Danju.
“Come to a place like this and complain. Me too…. I’m sorry for bothering you.”
“It’s not the main book. No.”
And that’s just a private conversation. She brought up a public conversation.
“There will be a meeting in two days. The time is evening when the sun has set. … Allen Danju accompanies me to the conference hall. Remember.”
“All right.”
“Before the meeting, have dinner with me. I want to discuss this and that.”
“I’m fine anytime.”
“Then how about dinner tonight? …… Is it too sudden?”
She agreed that she liked Allen, who had been lingering for a very short time, without the other person even noticing.
“… No. Then see you tonight.”
“Then do it. … The conversation was enjoyable. Get some rest.”
“Yes, my lord.”
After giving her a warm goodbye, Viola soon left Allen’s quarters.
As she left, he too leaned back on her back, deep in her thoughts.
