Resurrected Immortal 249

Chapter 249 – 249. Adventurer Erin (3)

“…”

The male adventurer became a mute who ate honey at Erin’s confidence.

“Could there really be no one here who had the same thoughts as you?”

“That…”

“Go and tell me everything. Do all you can to protest that I hit you. Instead…”

After interrupting her words for a moment, Erin squeezed her index finger next to her middle finger of the male adventurer she had broken off.

Wooddeuk

“Ah!”

The cruelty of breaking the index and middle fingers without mercy was another face of the girl who had shown a bright smile with a smile on her face until recently.
If she had been Erinn from before, she would have just curled up and wrapped herself around herself without asking for help from those around her, even though she was subjected to unreasonable malice and violence.
But now it’s different.
She has her strength to resist that evil and violence, and she can feel that there are people who believe in her and support her in any situation.
If she is subjected to unreasonable things, she just needs to resist strongly and ask for help.
Now that there are people who help and protect her, she trusts so much, and she gives Erin strong courage.
That’s why she doesn’t submit to malice and violence, and doesn’t tolerate it.
Erin opened her mouth with a confident expression.

“I will tell you everything. What did you try to do to me?”

“Turn it off! I’m under contract with the Duke’s family! Between the words of a young child like you and mine, of course… !”

Always the same objection.
Only the person who wants to bet has changed, but the method of betting and the counterarguments are the same.

“So please try it. Whose hand will the Duke raise? Because I am also curious.”

Wooddeuk

Following the middle and index fingers, she finally ends up bending her ring finger in reverse.

“Kuaa!”

The male adventurer struggled to get out of Erin’s hand until her three fingers were bent in reverse, but he couldn’t.

“I think the duke will take my side, what do you think?”

Erin knew that Alex, the minor duke who was currently in charge of all practical matters in the duchy family, had scouted many adventurers and made them work in the dukedom’s adventurer’s guild.
In a way, this could have been a nuisance to Alex and the dukedom, but Erin was sure that this would not be a nuisance.
The reason why Alex proposed and brought Scouts to the extent that the adventurers proceeded with a contract on the condition that they reside in the duchy for a certain period of time was to protect people from the appearance of the demonic beast, which became more and more frequent as time passed.
The existence of an adventurer who causes harm to people with his irreversible personality is not helpful to the dukedom, but only a nuisance.

“Mister, are you really the one who signed the contract with the ducal family?”

There were even adventurers who came over to the dukedom without being scouted, boasted that they were being protected by the duke’s family, and claimed various benefits to the adventurer’s guild.
The male adventurer’s shoulders trembled as her face was distorted by the pain of snapping her fingers.
Erin, who accurately caught that reaction, was convinced that she was not a male adventurer who came here with a formal contract with the duke’s family.

“Go to the mansion right now and check…”

“Hey, let go of this!”

When the strength of the hand holding the broken finger loosened, the male adventurer hurriedly waved away Erin’s hand and turned around in a huff and ran towards the exit.
That moment.

“Stop!”

When knights in armor appeared and were restricted from entering, the male adventurer, whose fingers were broken, was unable to leave the building and took an awkward attitude.
The knight who went through the confirmation process by glancing at the male adventurer’s impression immediately nodded her head.

“This guy is right. Carry on.”

“Yes!”

At the beckoning of a knight of the highest rank, he pulled out a rope and began to restrain the male adventurer’s hands and arms.

“W-what are you doing! What have I done! I am… I didn’t do anything wrong! That girl… ! Arrest that girl! You made my fingers like this!”

A male adventurer, taken aback by her sudden arrest, protested to her knights, thrusting her own bent finger.

“This… Who did it?”

When the knight checked the inside of the adventurer’s guild, checking her fingers that were bent backwards, she found Erinn standing in the center, and her eyes widened.

“Erin?”

“Ah, Merdin. Hello.”

Erin politely bowed her head to Merdin, who found her with a surprised expression, and greeted her.
She is a girl who has returned to her original lively atmosphere, different from the one she used to create a confident yet bloody atmosphere.

“Did you make this guy’s fingers like this?”

“Yes. He is a very bad person.”

“No, I know that…”

“I faked myself as a competent adventurer who signed a contract with the duke’s family, tricked the new female adventurers into a bad party situation, and made them into debt. A total of three victims. One of them has already been sold into slavery, and the other two are currently confined to that person’s house.”

“Well, how do you… !”

As Erin told her secrets that she had never told her before, the adventurers and knights who were watching the situation, as well as the male adventurers who had committed the crime, began to speak to her.
Her eyes widened as she looked at Erin.

“Hehe, the method is a secret.”

Embarrassed by not being able to reveal the power of the divine beast, Erin smiled and evaded her story, and Merdin scratched her head.

“First… I get it. Well, there’s no way you, his disciple, would have said such precise information without any basis. For now, I will just say thank you.”

“Yes! Take care!”

“Damn it, damn it!”

Looking at her Erin, her expression of resentment, as she was escorted out of her guild by the Knights of Armitas, Erin sighed lightly and looked around her.

“Whoa… Everyone, I’m sorry for making a fuss.”

“No. Miss! I saw something interesting thanks to you!”

“I know! Was it such rubbish? As a fellow female adventurer, I am proud of you!”

“How on earth did you know about that son of a bitch’s crime!?”

“Lol. Thank you! Ah! I can’t tell you that! It’s a secret!”

Receiving various favors, including pure admiration, Erin loved this atmosphere of praising herself while being shy.
It was because I felt that these people, this place, and this time were acknowledging who I am now.
When she was in Aether, her pride, which she had never imagined, and her self-esteem, which had been crawling on the floor, were slowly recovering without realizing it.
The adventurers who had feelings of malice, envy, and jealousy sent by the male adventurers from earlier did not disappear at all.
Erin shifted her gaze to her sneering corner, and as she traded her whereabouts with Trisha, she looked at her adventurers who had their gossip.
The adventurers who had spread gossips avoiding their gaze and avoiding their eyes as they flinched and withered when their eyes met.

“Joy.”

I couldn’t understand why she was cursing herself if she was shrinking like that and avoiding her gaze, so I snorted at her.
Erin has learned from years of experience that not caring about people like that is good for her own mental health.
She then pulled her purse from her bosom and held it high above her.

“Since the atmosphere got weird because of me, I’ll pay for your drinks today! Voila! I have a lot of money today!”

“Waaaaa!”

“As expected, the young lady has a great bepo! Haha!”

The bar table set up inside the guild, which had been noisy with Erin’s declaration of her Golden Bell, instantly heated up.

Leaving the building of the noisy adventurer’s guild full of joy, Erin let out a small sigh and walked down her street.

“Whoa…”

The money bag was very light, but I didn’t think it was a waste.
There was a very large number of people in the bar inside, but the price paid was very small compared to the proud declaration of the Golden Bell.
No matter how much it was, the adventurers only accepted the price of one drink per person from Erin, perhaps because it was the part that bothered them about getting alcohol with the money of a young girl.

“Hee hee, they are really funny guys.”

It was overspending, having spent almost half of the money I earned today, but strangely enough, I felt satisfied in my heart.

“Time is… It’s a bit vague.”

Erin stared at the sky where the sun was still shining, she murmured.
It’s too early to call it evening, and coincidentally, the weather is also very nice.
Above all, if she went back to the lonely house without Eunhyeon, Illyana, or Eleanor as soon as possible, she would only feel her loneliness and emptiness as a reaction to her exhilarated mood.

“I want to see Hyun…”

Not only that, but it’s been almost a year since I couldn’t see the faces of Iliana and Eleanor, who went on a honeymoon together.

“… Shall we go to the nursery school?”

After thinking about it, she remembered a woman she had recently become friends with who had opened up to her.

“I’m going to meet Lily’s sister and go home with her.”

Having made up her mind, Erin took her steps.

“I have some money left, so should I buy something delicious to feed the kids?”

Thanks to completing her request and selling a large amount of monster materials, the pockets she had in her arms were very thick.
While she was moving, the images of young children staring at the bakery in front of her and welcoming her with happy faces were naturally pictured in her mind.
As soon as she opened her door, the smell of very warm freshly baked bread wafting from her kitchen whetted Erin’s appetite.

“Welcome!”

Erin smiled broadly as she smelled her bread as she heard the voice of her baker greeting her.

“Today is this!”

“… Yes?”

As soon as she unexpectedly entered the building, the bakery owner, who was about to greet her customers at the counter, opened her eyes wide in surprise at the girl’s cry.

“Mister! Did you just bake bread?”

“Yes? Yes. Well, yes.”

With bright eyes full of anticipation, I found the freshly baked bread displayed on the table in the kitchen and pointed with my finger to order.

“Give me all of that!”

“… Yes?”

At the sudden large order, the bakery owner tilted her head and glanced at Erin as she entered the bakery.
Judging by her behavior, she didn’t look like an ordinary girl, and the slender rapier slung around her waist led me to conclude that she was an adventurer.
However, the girl’s act of sweeping away all the dozens of freshly baked breads displayed on her kitchen alone was enough to embarrass the bakery owner.

“Do you have any money?”

“Yes. Here you go.”

Even if half of the money earned today was blown away, there was no way that the amount of money requested by adventurers risking their lives would be so small.
In effect, I would be spending all of the money I earned today, but I was looking at other days as much as today’s income, and I had money saved up in savings, so I wasn’t too worried.

“Hey, here you go.”

“Thank you!”

Erin, holding a large bag of bread in her hands to keep it from falling, happily headed for the nursery that Lily was managing.
When she reached her nursery after walking about ten minutes, Erin heard familiar voices in her ears.

“How beautiful you are!”

“Hey, let go of this!”

“The kind of heart that brings together young children who have no place to go, cares for them with love, and devotes themselves! I really can’t help but admire you!”

“Listen to people! You human!”

The voices full of unexplainable difficulties and the conversation between the two, who pretended not to listen at all and poured out words of courtship, evoked a familiar sense of déjà vu in Erin’s memory.

“This voice… That way of speaking…”

It’s not very unfamiliar.
In front of the entrance to the nursery school, a woman in a maid’s uniform looks around her with a troubled look on her face, and a gentleman in a neat suit holds Lily’s hands with his back in a neat suit.

“I-I… I told you. That is… Not half human… It’s called “The devil”…”

When she put the word ‘devil’ in her mouth, she had to whisper in a low voice while observing the reaction of her surroundings because of her Lily position, desperately hiding her identity.

“Ah, yes. Maybe. Your figure may certainly be the devil himself.”

“What is this X meal really called…”

Finally, as Lily’s rationality, which she had endured until the end, began to break little by little, curses began to leak out of her mouth.

“Aren’t you tempting my heart right now? I have now become a body that cannot live without you. Why did you appear in front of me! This devil! Come on, take care of me!”

“I’m going crazy. Really! Hey. You! I am! There is someone I’ve already decided to dedicate my heart to after all my life! Even if you do this, my heart won’t change!”

The back of the gentleman, who had been unilaterally and passionately courting, stiffened at Lily’s bombshell declaration.

“Unbelievable… If…”

“What, what is it? Also… ?”

“A virgin… Aren’t you?”

“Ah, is this fucker crazy? Really!”

It was the moment when Lily’s rationality was finally cut off, as she seemed like a polite looking gentleman.
Erin, noticing the identity of Gentleman Pervert, who was showing his back in the flow of conversation that evoked a familiar sense of déjà vu, moved closer to them with a confused expression.

“You! I sexually harassed you, before you tell my master everything…”

“Here… What are you doing. Gerard?”

“Huh?”

“Ok?”

Startled by her Erin’s voice, the two of them, who had been arguing not funny, turned her head in the direction where her voice came from and found her Erin.

“Erin?”

“Miss Erin?”
