Chapter 411 – Beauty World (2)
Hello.
I’m Pablo Snow. He is a bastard.
Moreover, he comes from an unremarkable family.
Still, I think I met the driver well.
I hate everyone around me.
You were born with heavenly luck. Are you a hero who saved the empire in your past life?-.
This is something I agree with.
If you knew who the driver I am serving is, I believe you would nod your head as well.
His name is Sir Philimonde Erndt.
He is called the Knight of Dawn more often than his name – he is a truly wonderful person.
The golden badge on his chest – the symbol of two swords embracing the sun – makes me, who assists him by his side, fill with pride from the bottom of my heart.
So I also had it embroidered on the inside of my chest.
If the driver sees it, he will protest, but what can I do when that is my only pride?
It’s already been over four years since I’ve served him.
There were big and small things, but isn’t that how life is all-.
Who will never smile, and who will never feel sad?
There were a lot of hard times, but I think it was just a complaint of happiness.
Before I became his squire, I was treated as an embarrassment by my entire family.
That was natural.
I stuttered, moved slowly, and most of all, it was because I had a cleft lip.
Maybe it’s because of the curled-up lips, but I’ve never met a woman who smiles when she looks at my face.
Even my mother did the same.
I heard that on the day I was born, you fainted when you saw my face.
It is said that when he woke up, he cried for three days and nights.
“Why are you putting me through this ordeal?” He said, and confessed that he had dared to question the Holy Spirit in a blasphemous way.
If there was a day when someone came to visit the mansion, my mother would always ask me to pray.
“Hey, it’s a rabbit. You must never come out of there.”
He crumpled me deep in the closet and took me out as the sun was about to set.
But I can assure you that I have never once resented her former mother.
I knew it was all for me.
That was the life I experienced.
Even though she grew taller and became the tallest boy in her neighborhood, she often ran away crying when small children threw stones at her.
It was Sir Philimonde who took me from such a foolish person.
How could I not follow it with all my heart? Even if you pay it back for the rest of your life, it’s not enough.
So, no matter what the driver wanted, I ran around until my feet were sweaty to always do more than that.
Every day was no different from war. I would be lying if I said it wasn’t difficult.
Still, it was rewarding.
Sometimes, when I looked over my shoulder and saw the sword being wielded by the strongest knight of the Golden Knights, I would fall into the fantasy of swinging the sword myself.
It would be natural for you to be loyal with all your heart like me.
Even if the knight has somewhat strange walls.
Knock-
[It’s me, Monica.]
A customer came today as well.
“Oh…!”
The driver, who normally wouldn’t have paid any attention to who came, had a smile on his face today.
In this case, well, it’s probably a woman out of 10.
He looks in the mirror, straightens his beard, applies oil, and combs his hair neatly.
Then he looks at me and asks.
“Am I okay?”
“Well, well, you’re cool…!”
I immediately gave a thumbs up with both hands.
The driver pouted, cleared his throat, and opened the door himself.
“Welcome, Mademoiselle. Please feel free to come in.”
As soon as the door opened, and the woman entered the room, I immediately lowered my head.
It’s something I’ve become accustomed to after seeing so many women screaming at my face.
There is nothing difficult. All you have to do is just sit in a corner like a folding screen or like a non-existent person.
Crackle-
The driver snaps his fingers.
Like a dog who listened to the bells, he looked at the knight’s hand quickly, and focused on the nerves that came to the words of the knight.
“Cheese from Roberta, 18-year-old wine from Pajere. And···. “You know?”
The driver looks at me and narrows one of her eyes.
I tried to smile and shake my head, but my expression was probably very strange.
The woman lowered her head as soon as she looked back.
Isn’t it impossible to ruin a woman’s appetite before she even eats?
“Hello.”
But…
Isn’t this a woman suddenly talking to me…?
I raised my head in shock, then quickly lowered my head again in surprise.
No matter how much I think about it, there is no way he would have said hello to me…!
Although I often saw people who pretended not to see me, I had never experienced a woman coming up to me and saying hello while I was standing quietly as if I wasn’t there – so I thought that was the right thing to do.
“···Uh.”
But still, I could see the woman’s shoe nose with my own two eyes.
They were small shoes, only about half the size of my large long feet.
“Ah, ah, hello…”
Only then was I able to return my greeting.
I made sure to prepare my heart so that I wouldn’t get hurt if she said, ‘I didn’t say hello to you-?’ And sprinkled wine on my head.
But what is this?
The woman held out her hand – wouldn’t it be nice to wrap her hands around mine, which were held politely?
“Hehe…?”
“Greetings are done while looking each other in the eye.”
“···Yes, yes?”
I stopped, she raised her head even though she knew it would be a nuisance to the woman.
It looks like it contains a lake – blue eyes are looking at me.
I couldn’t take my eyes off – I even forgot to breathe and looked into those beautiful eyes.
“Okay, like this. Looking into your eyes – Hello.”
“Ah, ah, hello…?”
It was like a dream.
The woman wasn’t even surprised when she saw my strange and disgusting face.
He didn’t look disgusted or frown as if the food had tasted bad.
He didn’t cry or spit out unspeakable curses.
However, he just looked at me and said hello in a warm voice, as if he was enlightening a weak child…
“···Hey, what are you doing?”
“Gasp…!”
I came to my senses belatedly when I heard the driver’s voice coming from next to me.
I immediately lowered my head, repeatedly apologized, and quickly headed to the cupboard.
Let’s jump until our chest explodes.
It felt like my heart was coming out of my mouth – I covered my mouth with my palm and gulped down a lot of saliva.
It wasn’t until I heard the woman follow the driver into the room with my ears prickled that my heart palpitations stopped.
I looked down at my two trembling hands and the woman’s warm palm for a moment, and only when the driver yelled at me to get it quickly did I start moving frantically.
I took out the cheese from Roberta, cut it into bite-sized pieces, and poured the 18-year-old Fajere wine into a glass.
And…
I took the off-white powder that the driver asked for separately and poured it into one of the glasses.
Slurp, slurp, I took out a teaspoon and gently stirred it to completely dissolve the powder, then headed to the table where the two of you were.
One two, one two. One left foot, two right feet.
As I walked, taking a deep breath to prevent my feet from colliding and twisting, I placed a glass without powder in front of the driver and a glass with powder in front of the woman.
“Thank you.”
A woman says hello.
As He said to her, she looked up into His face. And I saw him smiling slightly at me.
My heartfelt cold again.
I could feel the blood rushing to her face and her snoring getting stronger – I quickly lowered her head.
Why are you smiling at me?
Why aren’t you angry at me?
I took a couple of steps back, became a folding screen again, and quietly listened to the two people talking.
However, unlike usual, I felt my gaze being directed towards a woman.
Just as a piece of iron is attracted to a magnet – as if the sun at the top of the sky was tilting towards the ground as it should – my eyes turned to the woman.
A woman picks up a utensil with thin white fingers and dabbles in cheese, then opens her reddish lips, puts it in her mouth and chews it, and flicks her golden hair behind her ear.
The driver started talking about your most active moments, just as he would when he invited any other woman.
He told a story about winning nearly a dozen jousting tournaments, and even a fierce battle with a two-headed ogre.
It was a story I had heard ten or twenty times, but every time I heard it, I would applaud and be amazed.
But at this moment, all my attention was on the woman.
The woman folds her eyes and smiles, and her long eyelashes gently fold like the wings of a butterfly.
Also, the corners of her mouth were raised and dimples so deep that water appeared on her cheeks.
I just stared blankly.
And at some point, when he thought the atmosphere was ripe, the driver raised his wine glass.
“Haha- then… Shall we give it a try?”
“Ah, yes…”
The woman happily lifted the handle of her wine glass and clinked it with the driver.
A clear sound rings out clearly.
And then he put the glass to his plump lips.
I took a deep breath.
Her chest felt strangely sore. It felt as if my heart was being sawed off with a toothless knife.
“Uh, uh…”
The moment the woman touched her bulging lower abdomen and tipped her glass, I involuntarily cried out! I ended up screaming.
“Now, now, let’s sleep…!”
Clink…!
It seems like I was moving my body without realizing it.
The woman’s wine glass shattered.
And the blood and wine mixed from my hand and dripped onto the floor.
There was a dizzying silence, and the driver stood up.
“···This bastard. Did he attack?”
