Chapter 266 – Tomb (4)
【Mom and dad… I’m home.】
Fran said, holding her hands together in silence.
Instead of the honorific title of his father’s country, which he used as an adult, it was the title he used to call him when he was young.
On Parents’ Day, Fran hesitated like a child holding a pen over a blank letter. Fran, who tried to open and close his mouth, suddenly looked at me.
With that, Fran seemed to have decided on the first word after his greeting.
【… There is me, I will marry this person here.]
If the two of them were still alive, it would have been a cushion of thorns.
Fran, who brought up the main topic very suddenly, started talking about what our couple had been through.
There are no guests at the cemetery at dawn.
Even the gravekeeper, who works for money, was asleep until we left our names on the visitor list for the first time today.
Secrets sometimes came up in places where no one was listening, but I didn’t want to be an ugly husband who found fault with them.
Fran’s conversation continued beyond an hour.
If I had visited Fran’s parents in my lifetime, they would probably have been kicked out midway through the conversation, and the next time I visited, it was likely that the teacup would contain an alchemy solution instead of tea.
【So you mean? The half year I was with Nord was much more surprising and busy than the combined seven years spent away from her hometown… There were more times when I was happy.]
─Chuck.
Franc, who again drenched her tombstone with her wine, poured herself into a new glass and drank from it.
Her long talk must have made her thirsty, but more than that, she would rather show it to the two who died before her daughter was old enough to drink.
【Of course, there were more smiling days than happy days. There wasn’t a single day when I was sad because of Nor. In fact, there were times when tears came to my eyes.]
Her franc pronunciation was clear even after she had neatly emptied her solo drink, which would have been more than enough for her to wander in one glass.
Let’s correct her a little bit. It was clear
【… In fact, I still want to see the faces of her mother and father.]
Fran endured her drunkenness, but she couldn’t hold back her tears.
【I’d be lying if I said I didn’t resent you, right? I hated the two of them so much when I fell asleep smelling the musty smell of the bed in the inn room after only filling the water vessel, but now it’s fine even in a dream, so I want her mom and dad to tell me that they worked hard and that she had a hard time.]
Fran ran her endless tears down her cheeks at random.
Originally, she cried a lot. Even on the first day we met, and the day after that, she did her part, but she always sniffed with her teary eyes. It wasn’t until after meeting me that her tears stopped.
She said, 【Dad, her hometown has become so good at speaking, but she is confident that she can do sewing work better than mother, but she even brought her loved one without saying anything ── She has no praise or scolding, which is really the worst. Where in the world is there such a meeting?
It’s really irresponsible to have a happy family. Even though they are the people who took the most precious family from their daughter. She doesn’t know that she gets sick from buying bad dyes, and she can’t even take care of her own health.]
─Tap, pop.
Frank’s words were interrupted infrequently. Drops of her liquor on her tombstone dripped onto her bouquet.
【For me, I hate the two of you the most in the world. Say you don’t like our Norr. I’m really gonna get mad Mom and Dad don’t even have the right to curse at us. To me, it’s a happy family that I got back after 7 years. I mean, he’s a wonderful husband who can be proud of to others.]
That’s why the words that weren’t like Fran seemed more real. I wrapped my arms around Fran’s shoulders. Instead of embracing me as usual, Fran wiped away her tears.
【There are a lot of things I don’t know well and a lot of clumsy things, but if I’m with this person, I think I can be happy anywhere. Therefore… Don’t worry about the two of you anymore.]
Fran, wiping away her tears, smiled through her red, swollen eyes.
【Mom, Dad and four daughters, she is very happy right now.】
After those words, Fran’s mood seemed to be settled.
Looking at me, he looked at me and asked if he had something to say, so I poured alcohol on Fran’s parents and bowed twice.
[I will refrain from saying a lot. Every time I deal with others, I’ve been using a greased tongue, so it doesn’t seem polite to do that to the two of you.]
I was able to talk to any being with whom I could communicate, but isn’t one action more valuable than 100 words?
All the rhetoric that adorns his words has been stripped away.
I greeted the parents of the wife I love with banal, ordinary words and an ordinary son-in-law who could be found anywhere.
【I’ll make sure to make Francesca happy up to the two of you.】
The thief who stole her daughter-in-law, who was like Keum Ok-yeop, would have done her wrong with the daughter’s happy smile.
Fran and I shared the remaining wine, emptied it, and came down from the hill where the cemetery is.
It was an early winter day, when the morning sun was dazzlingly bright.
***
From Fran’s hometown, we returned to Hremar.
To be honest, it was a week of rocking in the wagon, but no one complained.
Traveling for the purpose of moving itself was also quite enjoyable.
When the night was over and they were getting ready to camp, Lalilura put on a performance that they were planning to perform in Romania. On the day when Dana, a natural person, and Fran, like half an elf and half a dwarf, competed in the forest, the table was surprisingly rich.
Of course, it seemed that the chaos had not been completely quelled in Hremar even while we had been roaming around so leisurely.
Because the Tustars Company, which was active domestically and internationally, was like a dragon coated with yam and struggling.
So this opportunity was the first reception for my shadow alter ego.
“Ninnin.”
While muttering a long-awaited incantation, the Machoism Assassin ran across the ceiling of the manor house.
Between roof and ceiling! Even the narrow gap that even a cat would find difficult to get in and out of was a wide space for me in Kabutomaru mode.
‘Druid Special) Transformation.’
Are there any Heads you know as Black Mamba? It is a small poisonous snake, thinner than a little finger. Right now, I’m just transformed into that creature.
Strangely, when I transform, the poison disappears.
It’s like a bloody bloody DNA world. The knowledge of a veterinary school dropout is completely useless.
【Still haven’t found the reason!!】
I, who became a black dragon (snake), was moving while performing the snake dance I had been practicing for a week, when I heard a shout from under the roof.
Ugh fuck, look at that big voice. All of this is proof that there is no consideration for psycho idiots who rent and live in the attic of other people’s houses.
Nidavellir needs to develop more national awareness about the socially underprivileged. I listened to the ceiling.
For reference, snakes usually have ears as decorations. It is said that there is no hearing.
But where am I, an ordinary snake?
Beethoven had to rely on his own genius after he went deaf, but I was still Somers even though my hearing cells had degenerated. The fact that the transformation magic is not perfect seems to be helpful in this case.
【There is no one who doesn’t know the incident of that night among the citizens! Is it a valid excuse to say that an incident like that happened and yet we still haven’t been able to figure out the evidence or details!!]
【I’m sorry!!】
【If you realize you’re sorry, go and investigate right away!!】
─Meadak! Thud!
I heard the lord’s scream as I hit the floor with my tail on the ceiling. It was just like the story I heard.
‘I heard that the president of the business destroyed the evidence.’
It is said that he set fire by shocking an alchemy solution similar to explosives hidden behind a bookshelf. The fire spread without a sound, and they had no choice but to move the battle site.
‘It seems the other executives of the company didn’t know what was going on.’
Even after interrogating them, nothing came out, so they must be doing that.
Perhaps that was the reason why the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce placed the exit and the book storage in the same place.
Never increase the number of accomplices who may destroy him, and in case of emergency, set fire to block the trail and destroy evidence.
Good plan. Although it failed.
Everyone has a plausible plan. Until you get hit.
I overheard their conversation, gathered information, and stuck a snake’s head through a small hole in the ceiling.
Prepare your clone and shoot!
【… Well?!】
The lord who manages Hremar stood up in surprise. Anyone would do that if a white Nazgul appeared in his office.
─Shwaaaaagh!
The shadows of the fog created with my mana in abundance floated in the room like ghosts. I recited the prepared comment in an echoed voice.
【Hello. It’s the first time I’ve seen you like this, lord.]
【──Vanheim!! Come here right now!!]
The Dwarf lord summoned his subordinates with a spirited spirit, whether they were short-minded or courageous.
But, of course, we were prepared for that as well.
【It’s useless. I’ve already put up a barrier.]
I installed the rune stones I brought earlier on the ceiling.
Veronica’s noise blocking magic. A miraculous item that reduces noise between floors to zero! If you post it on Home Shopping, the money will be copied.
Instead of a walkie-talkie, he used the rune of ᚴ (Kaunan) to connect his mind.
Conversation is difficult because of the distance. Still, I was able to talk to them about setting up a barrier if I disconnected them.
Rune magic, instead of requiring preparation, had the advantage of range. Even when he lent a rune mask to Fran in Heysbent before, didn’t the effect reach a very far distance?
And unlike then, there was no worry today that the guards would sprinkle ashes on the finished rice.
【… Where did the spy come from? Even if you kill me, Her Majesty’s will is that Hremar’s shadow must be removed!]
【Don’t guess. I am here to help you.]
【You came to help?】
Look at our young lord and father’s expression. Is Jam Min more real than that when he hears that fucking homeless grandpa claims to be her mom’s friend? I’ll make a face
【I won’t hurt my mouth about the major incident that happened at the Twostars Co. The other day. Wouldn’t it be troublesome because the ledger was burned?]
【This is an unpublished content. How did you find out?]
【It’s a trivial matter. The inadequacy of your Gnostic system is none of our business to point out. But this time, that mistake must have been luck. I buried the ledger I stole from them before the incident happened on the wall outside the North Gate.]
【What?!】
The ledger sneaked out last night and buried it. The protagonist is our horse’s daughter, a servant girl, who has a track record of escaping the guards’ checks in Haysbent.
【At first, I was going to bury it in a slum, but it didn’t make sense. There are too many people spying on us, so we changed places. They seem to be having a hard time managing the slums.]
[You bastard, are you making fun of the territory given to you by Her Majesty the Queen?]
【Huh. How easy is it to drive out the accumulated evils by yourself? Thanks to the bureaucrats who helped ruin the city even before you took office, Hremar has been a spawning ground of malice for over 20 years, leaking deadly poison to the homeland.]
【… Deadly poison?]
Comments, comments are difficult. Fuck, I know I’m embarrassed too, so let’s not ask it humanly.
I know it’s a cringe talk. Still, if you don’t want to be pursued by your tone or tone, you have to say this on purpose.
Who the fuck would think of a Kitai spearhead squirming at a tone like this. It’s perfect cloaking.
【The dye of the kiln oak tree. It is because of that that the Tustas Corporation was destroyed by the Romanian task force.]
Gaslighting ON.
I conveyed the truth to the lord while mixing the phrases.
It is said that a certain cheeppalum in Romania attempted a different world Northeast Project to reduce the national power of Nidavellir with power on his back.
No matter what the president’s will, as a result, charcoal powder from kiln oaks is a drug that causes anger, lowering the quality of the average craftsman and ruining the national character.
It may not be the fault of the nobleman, whose lord is Sinping, but the charcoal dye is the cause of a major twist in Fran’s life. It was a matter that must be sanctioned.
‘So, that’s okay. Please bring this story to the Queen’s presence on the cheap.’
Only then would Romania’s actions be constrained.
There’s no way even Queen Bellir, who is so damn good, can’t stand still after being hit first by her foreign country. When Romania was pressed diplomatically, she would also help us maneuver.
‘There is no evidence that Romania intervened, so she won’t be able to go to war.’
Chirashi is always great. Yeong-ju was confused by the news of Kadera, which he had learned for two years at a half-male, half-female veterinary school.
Besides, I was a preacher of the real truth.
Isn’t it? It is true that the
【… I will look at the evidence and think.]
When I conveyed the facts, Lord Hremar said so in an atmosphere that was almost 50 percent.
Evidence is the research records and ledgers that support what I said. Of course you will doubt it. At least charcoal dyes will be banned from sale in the country.
That’s it. I moved the alter ego’s body to the window.
【This is the end of my story. It would be better to report it at this time when you have just been inaugurated. Now, you can excuse yourself by saying, ‘As a competent lord, I quickly discovered corruption in the territory.’]
Lord Hremar cannot cover this matter. Why? The longer he has been in office, the more responsibility falls on his shoulders.
King God General Admiral Yi Sun-shin might not know it, but it was difficult to be like the opposite even if he weighed his power and life on the scales.
Then, conversely, if you don’t report quickly, you should make your position jeopardized!
‘If he didn’t know, he would be punished as an incompetent bastard.
Considering the size of the situation, it is certain that it will be lost no matter how things develop.
It would be better to wrap yourself up as a competent lord who found a sense of incongruity while looking through the records of the territory after taking office. If that’s the case, the queen might praise her, let alone punish her.
If they think we might press charges, they’ll rush things.
[Hey, wait! Wait!!】
Is his head spinning as much as he is a port city lord? Understanding the situation, the lord tried to catch me.
But what if I’m sorry Because that’s an alter ego. The Nazgul changed into Na/Z/Gul in an instant and scattered, and the lord lost his mind as if possessed by a fox. Hatihati Hatiho.
【… Vanheim!! Is there Vanheim!!]
As I managed to put the rune stone in his pocket with the body of a snake, the lord, who had his mind firmly gripped, called the captain of the guard.
He tried to get him to retrieve his ledger, but he appointed his own escort and went to investigate the ledger himself. Older people are energetic.
I put the rune stone bag in my mouth and crawled down the attic with a snake body that reflected the body’s strength.
‘Fuck a child, it feels like running around while hitting the floor.’
I was a ninja ninja, but I never thought I would be in a position to be a ninja daughter. Listening to the seizures of the people in the manor house and being a snake daughter. This is fucking crazy.
I mumbled and cursed, then joined the party members.
Fortunately, nothing happened after that. I was able to leisurely watch Nidavellir and the dye industry take the 4th stage of embracing culture shock.
In the meantime, the necessary work was progressing smoothly.
Receive a giant leather armor made with normal dye.
I heard that Zoids had become independent from the Blacksmith Guild.
Say goodbye to Hella and ask for one favor.
He sold the captured equipment and shared a pie with Ursilla.
──That’s how it was when 10 days on land and 10 days at sea had passed.
We were able to get on the Goldene Sheep and get off at Britannia’s docks.
