Chapter 337 – Old Relationships 2
“… Seeing~”
A voice full of reprimand and impatience.
Although Jun clearly heard that voice, he neither stopped moving forward nor looked back.
‘Juni, why are you just leaving? ‘I want you to repeat what I said earlier.’
‘… But it’s just a shame.’
Your beauty (breasts) makes me want to break my promise not to have more lovers?
Jun was both impressed and angry at the same time he had just said such an embarrassing line reminiscent of Casanova.
You were the one who said the words, so why is the shame on me?
‘I spoke kindly to Por and my younger brothers.’
‘Well, you are my wives.’
Even though he can’t say anything outside, he says almost everything he wants to his family.
What if the conversation partner is a cute and charming wife?
I could say as many things as sweet or bitter.
However, it was difficult to do so if the person she was talking to was someone other than her family, and unfortunately, Jun was one of those people.
No matter how likable I was, it was physiologically unreasonable to say sweet things to people other than my family, and it was difficult to handle the attention I would receive from people around me because of those words.
Even now, Leonard and Robin’s bewildered gazes on my back felt very burdensome.
Nevertheless, the fact that I whispered those sweet words earlier without my knowledge probably meant that I liked Sophia that much.
‘Then just take her as your wife. Por agrees. I think my compatibility with Junie is not bad, and more than anything, I think he’s very kind.’
‘I agree that it seems like a good thing. But let’s think more carefully about taking her as his wife.’
As long as the courtier Fortuna gives permission, her other wives will not be very dissatisfied if she takes Sophia as her wife.
However, there was only one person who was dissatisfied.
Palace.
With the single intention of becoming Jun’s wife, she broke her proud arrogance and was reborn as his maid.
If you leave her like that and take Sophia as your wife first, she will definitely be very dissatisfied.
Considering her high arrogance, wouldn’t she really make up her mind and try to snipe at Jun or Sofia?
In order to take Sophia as his wife without such risk, he had to take her as his wife before Sophia.
‘And above all, I haven’t decided for sure whether I will break my promise not to take any more of her wives. Let Sophia decide what she wants to say, and then she can tell it or not.’
Jun quickly organized his work and continued walking.
This is because there was something right in front of them that needed to be dealt with before reestablishing the relationship with the palace, such as resolving past grudges.
“Uh? Ugh!”
Frank, a debtor with a grudge, came to visit me on his own for some reason.
For some reason, his shoulders were slumping. When he saw Jun coming towards him, he tilted his head, but then he saw the small fairy sitting on Jun’s shoulder and his face turned blue.
Because his appearance had changed so much, I couldn’t recognize him, but it wasn’t until I saw Fortuna that I recognized who he was.
“What the fuck!”
“Frank? Hey! Where are you going, you bastard!”
Frank quickly turned back and started running away.
The group next to him tried to call him out, but he didn’t listen and continued running.
‘Stupid guy.’
Looking at him like that, Jun shook his head.
Even though I hadn’t seen him in just a few years, he seemed to have forgotten what kind of abilities he had.
Without looking further, Jun jumped through space.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Frank and stretched out his foot, knocking Frank down.
Chin!
“Ouch!”
“Why are you running away like that without even saying hello, Frank? “It’s been a few years since we met.”
“Ju, Jun. As expected, Jun, is that you?”
“Uh, it’s me. Nice to meet you, right?”
Frank’s face suddenly rotted.
It was a face that no one wanted to meet.
But then what?
June shrugged his shoulders and looked down at Frank with his back straight.
Frank still lying on the ground.
Jun keeps his back straight.
The eye level is so different.
The difference in eye level expressed their current situation more realistically than a hundred words.
“Tsk! “Don’t look down on me like that!”
Frank, who did not want to admit that miserable reality, gritted his teeth and stood up.
‘Damn, damn!’
But even so, the misery did not go away.
Instead of going away, it only became more miserable.
Wide shoulders and tall stature.
Although there is no special decoration, the clothes show a hint of luxury and a very handsome face that makes males jealous.
Jun’s appearance is truly like that of a nobleman.
On the other hand, what about yourself?
Even though she was five years older than him, her shoulders were narrow, and her height was short, and the only clothes she wore were worn-out cloth that was on the verge of turning into a rag.
It was hard to believe that the face was the same person.
Raising the body and narrowing the eye level.
The narrowed distance widened again due to other distances (differences) that were not visible when he was down.
Why on earth did this distance arise?
Clearly, he and I are orphans just like that guy.
For your information, Frank avoided information related to the Britia Empire in part to rebuild his shattered pride, and naturally did not know what Jun had been through.
He became a merchant just like Jun had said when he was young, and he assumed that the reason he came to the Elance Alliance was because of work.
Back to the main topic.
Even though they were identical orphans, there was only one reason for this difference.
Presence or absence of special ability.
The difference between having and not having an ability.
Then there was no need to feel this miserable.
The abilities that Jun developed have nothing to do with combat (he doesn’t even know that he developed an auror thanks to him) and are useless.
On the other hand, although he did not have any developed abilities right now, there was a chance that he would develop good abilities if he went on an adventure in the future.
A lottery where 2nd place is confirmed and a lottery where 1st place may be possible.
Which of the two is more valuable?
I don’t know about other people, but Frank naturally thought it was the latter, and that’s why…
‘We’ll see, Jun. I may seem insignificant right now, but the moment I start my adventure, my relationship with you will turn around. When that time comes, I will definitely repay you for the misery you have experienced several times over.’
I thought that this relationship today could be reversed at any time.
“It’s obvious what you’re thinking. But Frank, do you really think that’s possible?”
“Of course. If nothing else, the Auror core can definitely bloom with just one cheap mind trick. Hehe. Are you jealous? “You can’t do that even if you die and wake up because you have already developed two useless abilities.”
“I thought it was impossible, but it seems like you really don’t know anything about me. I’m sorry to disappoint you, but your Auror core has already bloomed. “Thanks to you for trying to kill me by drowning me in the lake.”
Jun later revealed that he became an adventurer, which gave him wealth, fame, and beautiful wives, including a warrior and a saint.
“Well, don’t lie!”
“I’m not lying. Right, Por? Is that right, kids?”
“Yes!” “I’ll buy it back.” “Of course!”
Fortuna (adult mode), Dohwa (adult mode), and White are clinging to Jun as if we were the proof.
Frank was delirious at the sight of jaw-droppingly beautiful women clinging to each other and making jokes, exactly what he had dreamed of.
Jun paid no heed to him and gave him an additional blow.
“And you will never get a chance like this, a chance to become an adventurer. Why? That’s what I decided, the debt you owe.”
… Smack!
Jun’s freezing words.
Frank couldn’t stand it and eventually passed out.
――――――
An office of the Guild Elance branch.
Knock! Knock!
“… Please come in.”
At the sound of a knock on the door, the man who was busy working on her documents stopped his work and looked towards her door.
Soon the door to the office, which had been closed tightly, opened and an elf girl with a youthful feel came into the office.
Nodding
“Yes, welcome. So, did you find out what you were asked to do and come here?”
Nod
Even though her man was a superior, the elf girl answered with a nod.
It was rude behavior, but the man didn’t care one bit.
It didn’t happen yesterday or today, and she deserved it because she was born with noble blood.
Therefore, the man continued to ask questions in silence.
“So, what was the reaction of the people?”
“Everyone… Was happy, saying that a hero worthy of a hero was born.”
“Even though the hero is a human and not a different race?”
Nod
“Are our tribes included among them?”
Nod
“… Haa~.”
News that I was concerned about.
With a deep sigh, the man got up from her seat and headed to the window.
The elf’s uniquely beautiful face and long ears were briefly reflected in the window.
The man said as she affectionately stroked her own face as if she was treating her beloved lover.
She said, “It may not be something you like. “It is not enough to lament that the race that carries the noble task of being a warrior is not a noble elf but a lowly human.”
Tsk tsk tsk
The man, who clucked his tongue at her regret, gave the elf girl another instruction.
“Please pass it on to those filthy things. “Go around the streets and do things that people won’t like.”
“If I deliver it to you… What will you give me this time?”
“Even if you don’t work for 10 years, I will give you enough money to live on.”
Nod
With a satisfactory price, the elf girl immediately went out to carry out her instructions.
The man sighed lightly at the elf girl’s less-than-noble attitude and quietly muttered as she looked up at the world tree visible beyond her window.
“For the elves. For the world tree.”
