Chapter 69 – Cal’s Tribulation (2)
69
Sophia’s eyes close and then open. It’s an unfamiliar sight. It’s been months since her limbs were cut off, she was used to low vision. She is not used to it yet and needs someone to lean on, but now she can stand on her own two legs.
Prosthetic limbs and limbs made of iron. Why did Carl not give it to him even though he had these things? Suspicion sprouts in a corner of Sophia’s mind.
The ground hardens after the rain. Sophia thought so and suppressed her anxiety. After this little misunderstanding is resolved, their love for each other will grow stronger. In sexual love, there will be fewer cases of ignoring the other person’s feelings and forced sexual desire, and you will do a little more pleasant things a little more often.
Sophia asked.
“Carl, why did you hide this from me? After all, it was a surprise gift?!”
“Huh. Well, yes.”
But Carl’s answer was not the kind Sophia had hoped for. She says yes with her mouth, but she looks a little flustered, an annoyed look at Arya, a look that doesn’t like something.
There is no sign of joy in his voice even though he puts on a smiling face with sad eyes, and if it is really a gift, you have to see how much the recipient likes it, but there is no such action.
Rather, it is a feeling of relief. I’m glad I was able to go over something roughly like this. It was the same even if Sophia used a deliberately made excuse.
Sophia felt mixed feelings and felt the knife’s body temperature.

Nothing is going right Things started to go wrong. The important thing was the feeling that this incident simply wouldn’t end like this. The flow of air was felt by Carl, who had been sent to every critical area as a commando and fought across the battlefield. He was trending. To the emperor.
A vague corner remains. It didn’t make sense for a member of the imperial family to accompany a knight commander who had just been appointed to go with him. No matter how young they were, the imperial family’s education was not so lax that they could trust strangers carelessly, and the imperial family usually had several people around them.
Perhaps the emperor deliberately sent the imperial family to the knight commander. If so, the situation is at its worst. This whole incident could be the emperor’s trap targeting the nobles.
Even though he has already grasped the information about the orcs, he deceives them with false information and urges the knight commander, who is blinded by his sympathy, to cause the imperial family to die due to the knight commander’s negligence. It is a move to eliminate future enemies who will threaten the throne of their children, and at the same time aim a blade of doubt at the nobles to erode their power.
In fact, the knight commander had already become as good as a dead man. He was a person who even brought down the former knight commander, but he was blown away in vain like this. That alone is a huge blow. From the emperor’s point of view, it was like cutting out a parasite in the heart by kicking out a member of the royal family.
It also bothers her that Arya gave Sophia her prosthetic leg and arm. Even if she hadn’t given any orders to Osot, it wasn’t very nice to let Arya and Sophia have their freedom in this way. He was particularly worried that Sophia might develop her self-reliance as she became accustomed to the use of her prosthetic arm.
The decoration of the emperor is the first thing to take a look at the situation and respond. In addition to the hero Lloyd, there was no doubt that some force was additionally attached to the emperor. Although it seemed like he was giving away a member of the royal family and dismissing the knight commander, it was clear that there must be a background behind the emperor’s hostility. You have to find out.
Took. Carl snapped his head. His head hit his chair. He couldn’t figure out why he should be doing this. Everything was annoying I wanted to quit everything right away and run to indulge Sophia’s body. I wanted to close my eyes and lean on Sophia’s clear voice. I want to tell you that I enjoy having semen on Sophia’s body.
“Sophia.”
Carl pulls out a drawer. The drugs contained in the two bottles are still the same. If you drink the elixir, you can create Sophia’s arms and legs. Then Carl will be able to fix Sofia’s arms and legs. But it is not yet time.
“You say you love me.”
Sophia has often whispered to Carl. I love you Carl. I love you.
There were times when she was confused whether it was because of her gratitude to him for taking care of her even after her limbs were cut off, or whether it was a calculated language to rely on her sword because she had nowhere to go and her plight. Of course, it could be because of really pure love. Carl sneered. Pure love. Love. Love. S-a-r-a-ang.
When he first saw Sophia, Carl’s bold gaze and her resolute attitude of forgiving those who harmed him had shocked her soul.
“Do you really know and talk about what love is?”
If this person I can love You can rely on this person. To this person, even someone like me could be loved. You can be sure that love really exists.
If you love me with all your heart, I will love you with all my heart. So please prove that love.
How? But how?
Carl’s mother tried to strangle him.
The mother with sad eyes, who lived in her mouth, saying that he was her beloved son, begged her to be saved. .
칼의 어머니는 그녀의 눈이 붉게 충혈되어 있었고, 그녀는이를 빠득 빠득 갈아 대고 있었으며, 그녀는 칼 더러 그녀는 개새끼-태어나서는 안 될 새끼-좆 같은 새끼-라고 말했다. Carl thought he was really dying.
At that time, what saved the knife was not a mother’s love for her child, but a kick that she unconsciously swung. Kicking her mother in the stomach, she tripped and ran away from her mother in pain to get her kitchen knife out of her kitchen. Her mother also brought out another knife to share a bloody fight between her mother and her mother. The winner was, of course, Carl.
I later found out that Carl’s mother had no real reason for trying to kill him. It was because Carl ate a little too much food in a situation where the family situation was not so good.
Usually, her mother would share her portion of food out of her love for knives. Was Her mother, who usually fed her stomach, went hungry all day and almost went mad.
The stress accumulated on a daily basis, the fear that he would die if he kept going like this, and the pain caused by immediate starvation all came together, and his love for knives turned into indescribable hatred and anger in an instant.
The funny thing is, the very next day, the lady next door said, ‘I heard that things aren’t going well these days,’ and she came and shared an abundance of potatoes, flour, vegetables, eggs, and meat. He said he’s been making good money lately. Carl took it in advance, saying that his mother was not with him now. Seeing Carl greet her kindly, the lady stroked her hair saying she was proud and went away.
There were five holes in her mother’s stomach. A bandage was wrapped around Carl’s thigh. Both were stab wounds.
It was so damn funny.

“Sophia.”
“Yes?”
“Do you love me?”
“Why?”
“Just.”
“I love you.”
“That’s all right.”
Carl was silent for a moment, then she spoke.
“Let’s go out together in four days. Practice your limbs.”
“It’s kind of funny that you practice your arms and legs.”
“Haha.”
“What about the knife?”
“Huh?”
“Does Carl love me?”
“… “
“Why no answer? I’m pissed Unrequited love is sad?”
“Who else would love you, Sophia.”
