Chapter 260 – Old Relationships
“Uh huh. The voice is small. Why is the reaction so slow? Do your seniors teach you to use official rank statements like that? Huh?”
June played a prank on Donald when he replaced his childhood friend in the military.
It looked very childish when viewed from the side, but the effect was clear.
… Crack!
Donald tightens his eyes and grits his teeth fiercely.
The expression of the guy who already looked fierce changed to become even fiercer.
Tap! Knock!
“Statement of rank. Where has the official statement gone? Training paladin.”
Well, that doesn’t mean Jun was a great person to be scared of.
I’ve successfully hunted monsters that are several times dirtier than humans, so why am I scared by the looks of people?
Instead, he got even more excited and joked around.
“Stop it…”
“You really should stop showing that cruel expression. “Can’t you see that our Por is shaking because of your expression?”
“Juni, Por is so (heehee) scared. “I wonder what that scary man will do to Por (puh) Por.”
Fortuna suddenly approaches and watches the prank with sparkling eyes.
Everyone seemed to want to join in on the joke, so they jumped on the bandwagon and said it was right to do whatever they wanted.
She was so happy that she couldn’t hold back her laughter. She was a fairy who loved pranks.
Grinning softly! Sigh!
“Hee, hee! Haha!”
“Look at this! I was so scared that I passed out!
Donald continues to exhale hot breath with his face turning bright red like a heated kettle.
When Fortuna saw him like that, she fell on Jun’s shoulder and stamped her feet.
Anyone could see that it was because it was so funny, but Jun disguised it as because he was too scared.
“Are your eyeballs just decorations? “It’s because it’s so funny to anyone who sees it!”
Donald, who was furious, finally burst out the anger he had been holding back.
It was exactly the reaction Jun wanted.
“Well, that could be true. By the way, did you speak informally? “When I told him to take it easy, he said he couldn’t do that.”
“That’s why you and the breast fairy keep provoking me! Why are you blaming me for that!”
“Because it’s your fault. When I told you to take it easy, you didn’t do it. Even though I was told not to do it all the time and only when we were alone, I refused.”
“I think I’m going to make a mistake! So do your best! “How many times has this happened already?”
Well, that’s fine. Was it about 10 times?
When I thought about it, it was worth getting angry.
Jun smiled and gestured that he understood.
At that time, a Holy Knight wearing armor with the mark of the Pope’s Order of Holy Knights, which was not on the armor worn by Donald, approached the carriage.
“Cardinal June, I have come to calm the commotion. “I will start the carriage again, so please take your seat.”
“All right. Good job, Kate.”
Kate.
One of the reinforcements sent by the church at Leonard’s request when Leon was targeted by assassins.
Because of her short stature and size, as well as her cute appearance, her playfulness, and her kindness, many orphans from her church followed her in just a few days.
Upon her return to the Holy See at the end of Leon’s escort duties, she applied for a change of posting to the Order of the Holy Knights of Lemum Muni, but for one reason or another she remained active in the Templar Order of the Papal Order.
“Lol. You’re welcome. “This amount is not even worth the effort.”
Under Jun’s guidance, Kate smiled happily as if she had the whole world to herself.
Then she soon saw Dohwa sitting on Jun’s shoulder and made a complicated expression.
It has to be that way.
Kate was once a paladin directly under the saint who protected the saint. Therefore, she knew the face of the saint, Leon’s mother, very well.
What does Dohwa look like in her eyes? It will definitely look like a trace left by a former saint.
Those traces are not her husband nor her son, but a complete stranger?
You will often think, ‘Could it be possible that Leon has been intercepted?’
‘Such misunderstandings are unacceptable.’
However, she could not reveal Dohwa’s identity.
The painting originally belonged to the religious order. Therefore, if the church found out Dohwa’s identity, she could demand a share of Dowonhyang.
Moreover, the saying that the painting was a trace left by a previous saint was half true.
I found out later that before Jun and Fortuna injected Dohwa with her magic and divine power, Dohwa was already halfway through her germination with the divine power she had injected.
Otherwise, even if Fortuna was an angel and Jun’s magical power was of high purity, there was no way that the painting, which the church had attempted to germinate with all its might but failed, could have been so easily germinated.
To put it bluntly, it was no different from just having rice and soup served on a table that was fully prepared with side dishes.
What would she do if Leon found out about this? I’m sure I’ll have a seizure, right?
‘What good is that? The notebook already belongs to you.’
‘Keu, keuhm!’
Dohwa rubs her cheek against Jun’s cheek as if showing affection to her beloved.
Jun cleared his throat as if he were embarrassed by the dark joy that was creeping up.
At the same time, the carriage that had stopped moving began to move forward again.
June put her face out of the window again and asked Kate, who was riding a horse and traveling alongside the carriage.
“Anyway, Kate, was there some kind of commotion up front?”
“There was a collision between carriages. It is said that this happened because they were fighting to get there first.”
“They don’t give you a reward for going first, so why did you do that?”
“I couldn’t ask why because they prioritized calming down the commotion, but since the owners of the carriage were nobles who have long been famous for having a bad relationship, wasn’t there a battle of pride over who would go first?”
“It makes sense, but it’s also ridiculous. So how did you calm the commotion? People who fight for such ridiculous reasons probably have unnecessarily high self-esteem.”
“… Hee hee!”
Kate smiles slyly instead of answering Jun’s question.
At the moment when Jun frowns at the ominous feeling that he doesn’t know why,
Is that person the Heavenly Demon?
It definitely deserves to be called a monster in heaven.
How can a frowning face be so cool?
People’s eyes began to focus on faces with a mixture of curiosity and fear.
With words that make your hands and feet cringe.
“… Kate. “You said something in front of me.”
“Well, since the Heavenly Demon is behind here, if you don’t want to die, get the hell out of here…”
“…”
“Well, I was wrong! I’m so angry at the nobles for showing such unnecessary pride. “I will take my punishment sweetly.”
When Jun’s gaze fell, Kate immediately lowered her head.
If you had been standing on the ground instead of on a horse, wouldn’t you have hit your head on the ground?
Anyway, I could feel that much determination from the top of her head looking down.
“Ha~. Cardinal, please just take a look. “It’s because my senior is short-thinking, but it’s definitely not because he has malicious intent.”
“What! This is real!”
“Ah, senior, just stay still! What is this every day? A senior causes an accident and I take care of it afterward! It shouldn’t be the other way around!”
“Hwi, hwii~ hwii~”
When Donald shouts as if he is being unfairly treated, Kate whistles for no reason, which she is not good at blowing.
It seemed like what Donald said was true. Now that I think about it, the letters I received from Donald sometimes contain stories like that.
‘How hard could it have been for this quiet guy to write something like that in a letter?’
“Okay, sometimes, sometimes! And there were no major accidents!”
Well. It doesn’t really look like that.
Despite Kate’s excuses, Jun’s salty eyes looking at her did not change.
“Anyway, the speed of the carriage seems to be much faster than before. Why are you doing this?”
“Don’t change your mind!”
“It’s because all the people in front of me went to the outskirts of the road. It seems that Heavenly Demon’s notoriety is beyond our imagination.”
“Don’t ignore it naturally!”
Whether Kate was crazy or not, the carriage moved straight ahead of her.
When we had gone some distance, carriages and nobles who appeared to be the culprits of the commotion came into view on both sides of the road.
For some reason, I felt an annoying feeling.
Sure enough,
“Heavenly Demon!”
“I really wanted to meet you at least once, Heavenly Demon. Hehe.”
The ringleaders who discovered the carriage that Jun was riding in rushed out in front of the carriage.
However, there is one difference: one was visited by a noble himself, and the other was visited by someone who appeared to be the nobleman’s son-in-law.
For reference, the nobleman who sent the driver was crossing his arms in front of his carriage, clearly showing his displeasure.
Even without hearing the circumstances, you can guess who was at fault.
“What’s going on?”
Still, just in case, Jun got off the carriage and asked about the situation.
I didn’t want to get caught up in trouble, but the flags of the two nobles had symbols of high-ranking nobles engraved on them, so it was easy to just ignore them.
“Hello, Heavenly Demon. “My name is Thomas Rosebullet, the head of the family of Count Rosebullet.”
“I am the valet who serves Joy Robert, Marquis Robert’s eldest master.”
“Okay. No, wait. Robert? “Did you just say Robert?”
“Yes!”
In response to Jun’s question, Si-dong nodded his head with a deep smile, and Joey Robert, who was pretending not to do anything but was listening, cocked his nose arrogantly as if he knew that.
It seemed that June recognized the power of the Robert family.
The illusion is also oily resin.
“Cardinal Jun, please listen to the situation and consider right and wrong. Then, I will make a gift in the name of Marquis Robert.”
Joey seemed to have finally decided to start a conversation and approached leisurely, waving his cane.
He hadn’t even figured out who was right or wrong yet, but he was already acting like he had won.
Is the name Robert Marquis trustworthy?
But what? I can’t trust that name.
‘Since this has already come to an end, should I give a gift to the beast I haven’t seen in a long time?’
Jun smiled brightly, thinking of the beast that would glow, or rather be happy, after receiving the gift.
