Chapter 70 – ‘Goes’ to Limno.
This is what Eclair often reads.
In particular, it was a sensation I often experienced when reading textbooks that recommended extensive reading, such as command and tactics.
After finishing the first reading, go back to the part you read and read it.
The experience of revealing hidden meanings one by one in the unchanging lines and arrangement of the same text.
‘The two are similar in some ways.’
The conversation I had with her today was like walking through a maze where I couldn’t see beyond her walls.
If you keep going, you will find the exit, but it is such a maze that you cannot be sure of the existence of the exit.
‘···’
The young lady, who was caressing the scar on her face, said she wasn’t saying this to anyone.
(I trust my brother’s eyes, but I also thought the driver was a good person. I was especially impressed today. My family… I can tell just by looking at Chloe’s ‘eyes’ and ‘feelings’.)
She emphasized that this is the first time she is recommending it, in case the weight of the remark she hastily brought out will feel light.
I even added a sincere apology to ask you to know that I came up with a lot of thought.
These were the words of Lady Skadi, who had left her mansion, talking to herself.
“Umm…”
As I lie down in my bedroom, awkward words float around in my head and I turn my body.
As I closed my eyes and meditated on the riddle-like conversation, I began to understand parts of what Young lady said.
‘What do you mean by special feelings… I love Roman? It’s absurd.’
I can admit without denying that Roman is a good friend.
But before the relationship of friendship was formed.
She has been facing him for a long time for a request, but I can assure you that she has never felt more emotions than that.
Looking back at the conversation, he wondered if what he understood was really true.
If you are with Roman, your feelings will change?
Where the hell did that confidence come from?
I feel that it is great to believe that it is close to the faith explained by comparing it to a natural phenomenon that a mere human cannot resist.
‘Even if you have a crush on your lover, don’t worry and come back…’
I don’t even know if this is something I would recommend to others in the first place.
In an era where nobles are also secretly fighting over whether polygamy will scatter power and wealth.
An attempt to increase the number of rivals without being married?
The form of a relationship called a lover may exist with a number of frameworks, but I have never imagined such a case.
And unlike other remarks, words that cannot be understood even after revisiting them dozens of times.
‘What does it mean to say that I’m going when I go…’
Where are you going all of a sudden?
Does it mean that Roman likes it if he confirms the destination again when moving?
Considering the reporting system, it was a good habit even for an adventurer rather than a knight.
‘If the person accompanying you has such OCD, I’ll have to remember it.’
Characters who have an obsession in any direction are common in the Knights Templar.
Eclair, who felt frustrated by the conversation that did not come out with an exciting answer, drooled and rolled left and right with his extension.
‘… I’ll have to charge Roman for this insomnia.’
Sooner or later, I will have to move busily, but the quality of my sleep was unreasonable.
This time, he vows that he will put some pressure on Roman, and Éclair slowly sinks to sleep.
*****
One of Rike’s worries, scattered like stars in the night sky, was that he would not be able to send them off by himself this time as well.
However, the method chosen by the young man and woman, who did not want to endure the eruption of sexual desire that fluctuated like a volcano on the verge of an explosion when their eyes met, was surprisingly simple.
Do we really need to start making love at night?
As her stamina runs out after enduring her pleasure, and her pattern of falling asleep involuntarily continued recently, Rike was estimating how long it would take for her to recover and open her eyes.
The hot fire that started from the moment the setting sun went down through the window faded into the middle of the night.
When she woke at dawn, she proved her judgment correct.
“Ummm… Older brother…”
“Are you awake? I thought about waking you up.”
For the miracle that arrived at the end of clumsy calculations, I will thank the Goddess just for today.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a large back hurrying to get ready to leave.
If I slept even a little longer, I’m sure I would have regretted it enough to scar my mind.
Reason defeated by instinct is bound to be devastating.
When I lifted her heavy eyelids and raised her upper body somehow, her body was heavier than I thought.
She was really dangerous because she said something stupid yesterday.
– As long as I can’t do it for the time being, oppa, do whatever you want… I can do whatever I want without worrying.
Not ‘kindly’ that her lover usually shows to her, but ‘at will’.
Her words strongly promise to be careful in the future.
My lover knows me better than I do.
Now I have a perfect understanding of where my body is weak, and I’m on the verge of peaking and coming to a borderline stop, and so on.
Beyond unapproachable strength and stamina, he completely dominates himself with only his technique.
‘Lord, I almost died…’
I remember crying and begging him to let me go over and over again.
I thought it was the end, but the love affair renewed the peak of pleasure once again.
The aftertaste remained so strong.
I forcibly moved my legs, which were trembling like a newly born herbivore, and got up from the bed.
“Whew…”
Let’s put our hands on her lap to calm her trembling legs.
Seeing this, her older brother, who stopped preparing to go out, approaches.
Leaving his body in the trusty hand that came into her armpit, he relaxed his legs and held her in his arms.
“It’s okay?”
“Yes···.”
The masculine smell of flesh calms the mind.
In the stability regained, the smallest emotion gets caught and wriggles like a thorn.
Worry.
My brother said to be careful, but he said that nothing is going according to his will.
Wouldn’t even he who has the power to doubt the transcendence of species get hurt?
A week of worrying about it and living alone is dark without an answer.
I don’t like to send
But he said he shouldn’t say such a thing, bit his tongue, carved it into his heart, and raised the corners of his mouth.
“Did you eat breakfast?”
“It’s easier to eat on the way, so you can rest more. It looks like you’re having a hard time standing.”
“No. I’ll bring you something to eat on the way. I’ve made something in advance.”
Rike, whose lower body senses had returned along with her spirit, left the bedroom holding Roman’s hand.
I hand him the paper bag on the corner of the table.
When you look into her eyes and start talking, you will definitely start whining.
It might be boring and burdensome to even put your worries into your mouth anymore.
A deep kiss is enough to convey the affectionate feelings that bloom within her own heart.
“···I will wait.”
“I will be back.”
*****
Crispy, chopped bacon was mixed with cream cheese and neatly spread on halved bagels.
On one side is a mocha bun purchased from a regular bakery.
Just looking inside the envelope Rike had given her made her laugh.
“It only contains what I like.”
This was happiness in tangible form.
Feeling satisfied with her taste alone, she walks around the capital city where morning has arrived.
Meeting Eclair is not in the capital.
However, she did not go directly to Rimno to meet him.
She chose one of the many estates where carriages were operated to go to Limno, which had no gates for movement.
She took the gate that was operating 24 hours a day and threw her body into a territory she had never heard of in her life.
…
…
-There-!! Don’t push!
– A living beast cannot return with even a young…
-You must fill out the report on acquired game on the table on the left!
‘Why are there so many humans this morning?’
I roughly covered my body with a cape and hood and got out of the gate zone that was swaying with crowds.
Whether it’s a special day or not, even though there are guards, the queue at the unorganized gate is extremely crowded.
“It’s here.”
I turn my head at the now familiar voice of hers, and see red eyes shining through the tightly pressed hood.
The mask that came up to her nose covered the lower part under her eyes, so it was too obvious who it was as the thoroughly thorough attire represented her personality.
“When did you come?”
“I think it’s been about 20 minutes.”
It wasn’t that I was late.
On the other hand, it came a little too soon.
Even so, Eclair came one step faster.
I asked while watching the people who were still making large-scale movements while humming.
“Is there a reason you chose this place?”
“It’s not a big deal. As long as a hunting festival is held to guarantee success, there’s no way this kind of outfit will attract attention… Among the territories where you can get wagon support from dispatched informants, this is the territories of nobles who openly support the imperial family.” Yes.”
It means great enough.
“It’s so valid that I have nothing to say.”
Hearing my words, Eclair turned around and started walking.
“…I’m moving right away. Even if I leave now, I’m assuming it won’t arrive until the sun goes down.”
I almost made the sound of a song during the transit time.
Was Limno that far…? Or maybe this estate exists in such a remote place.
‘Machara…’
It’s me who doesn’t prefer riding in a carriage because of the stuffiness.
However, there was nothing I could do about this request, so I followed Eclair, who was leading the way.
The number of people quickly decreased as they walked in the opposite direction to the number of people heading for the hunting festival.
“I don’t think you need to wear a disguise.”
“I was told that stupid magic or items were poisonous in Limno. Due to the nature of the city, I don’t care about the clothes that cover my face, but I heard that magic tools catch things that impede recognition or change the face or voice with magic.”
Now that I’m listening, I can think of a few reasons without thinking too long.
“There are houses and gambling houses lined up, so at least anonymity is guaranteed, but can’t it be counterfeit or artificial?”
“…I don’t know the exact facts, but it must be that kind of story.”
Even though it is a city that is a collection of transparent desires, you care about that.
Since ‘Akarite’ is a 15-year-old game, Rimno was poorly implemented compared to other territories, so it was unknown information.
I never opened my ears when I heard the story because I thought there would be nothing to come.
“That’s it.”
A cabin located at the end of Eclair’s line of sight.
In the clearing on the left, there is a carriage and a coachman with an impressive reddish-brown beard who is ready to depart.
When I think about riding a carriage for a long time, my eyes tense up.
“Let’s start.”
…
…
I thought it would be frustrating after riding for the first time in a while, but I didn’t have any sudden rattles or sore hips.
“The coachman’s skills are amazing.”
“It is the power of professional training and education.”
“Five··!”
I don’t know if that’s what I learned, but I admired it anyway.
Éclair, who had cast her gaze through the open window, took out his words without a sound of breath.
“As you know, the destination we are going to is Limno.”
“…? Uh uh- I know.”
“I’m talking about the destination.”
“…You know?”
I wanted to say something obvious.
As if the conversation was not a joke, he showed a serious face every time.
-Is not it···.
Eclair muttered in a low voice.
“What?”
“It tells you where to go.”
“Then why?”
Éclair and I met eyes in mid-air, eyes that seemed incomprehensible to each other.
“?”
“?”
