Growth-2
Before it becomes a chaotic crucible where madness and obsession are mixed, I will rewind the time by just 5 minutes to explain the situation.
***
[It’s pretty flashy, isn’t it?]
The old sage admired the scenery of the splendid party hall.
＜Didn’t the wise man have a party?＞
[…Yamma, do you know what kind of caveman I am? It’s just Chuimsae.]
In fact, to be a primitive man would be too much of a disgrace to an ancient man. Nodding his head, Leo began to enjoy the festival of civilized people.
[But where’s your lover?]
＜Am I single?＞
[…Two-headed bastard… Where’s Arya?]
I don’t know why I misunderstood myself and swear by myself, but I decided to understand because I’m a lesser human than a primitive man.
＜Arya must be wearing a dress. We can’t be together until that point.＞
No matter how exclusive the article was, there was no need to even have a place to undress. In the first place, do you hear anything other than crazy?
＜You have to wait while you eat food.＞
In that case, there was nothing left to eat.
There are a lot of high-end dishes prepared at the party that you don’t usually eat.
[Then, try eating the black sweets over there. Somehow, it looks delicious.]
＜Is that so?＞
As Leo walked towards the brownie, the eyes of the people around turned to Leo.
[Why are you looking at me like this?]
＜Well. It even smells like commoners.＞
[A bitter self-deprecation.]
Leo picked up the brownies from the tray. There was exquisitely only one brownie left on the tray.
“oh…”
At that moment, someone else’s hand touched Leo’s.
“…uh…”
The person reaching out from the other side was a rather small girl. Judging from the fact that he wore a fancy dress and hair ornaments, he was not a commoner, nor a servant at all.
“sorry. Have it.”
Leo offered refreshments to the young girl of the noble family.
“Ah, thank you.”
With a satisfied expression on her face, Young-ae picked up the cookie and bit it. After all, there were many desserts other than that, and it would be better to give people a good score to be considerate like this.
“…Hmm…”
But something was odd. The girl’s gaze continued to turn to Leo.
＜Why are you there?＞
[It’s not because he’s handsome…maybe…]
“ah…!!”
Before the sage could even speak, the sage’s intuition had already become reality.
“You are a joke assassin!!”
The problem was that it was a negative premonition.
“…yes?”
“Are you kidding assassin?!”
I hadn’t even eaten any sweets, but I felt a choking sensation in my throat and a burning sensation in my stomach. But in such a situation, I had to be calm.
[Ugh…! hahahaha…!!
Even if the crazy old man next door goes mad.
“You seem to have misunderstood something. I’m…”
“That’s right!! Joke assassin!!”
Another girl called out this time. At all, she said, holding out a picture of a newspaper that had been torn apart. My burning stomach burned with shame and started to explode.
“A joke assassin?!”
“That’s right!! It’s just like the person in the newspaper!!”
The girl’s acquaintances and friends began to surround Leo as if they were pouring coals out of such shame.
Because they were all educated people who were well versed in current affairs.
“You said you fainted Alfred?! Just a joke!”
“Teach me that joke too!! I think it’s good for self-defense!!”
“No!! It has a unique pronunciation like a proverb, so it’s not easy to learn!! That bloody shadow was also hit in an instant!”
I had read and heard the legend of the joke assassin.
[Khuh…! Heh heh heh heh heh heh!!]
As the nose blind made a noise, the sage let out a dog laugh accompanied by shortness of breath.
The urge to rip off the old man’s nostrils made his face turn red.
“…Ha ha ha ha ha…!”
kill yourself as a joke

and currently.
“You say that you and Ariaspil-sama are in love enough to have a secret meeting!?”
“I heard that you and the headmaster already said that you would have Ariaspil-nim!? Really?!”
“No! He told everyone in the mansion that Ariaspil-nim was his goal…!!”
“You said they even used the forbidden joke assassination technique to protect the lady from the assassins?!”
For some reason, the topic was shifting from ‘Joke Assassin’ to ‘Something like that with Ariasviel’, but this was better.
‘Because this didn’t even appear in the newspaper…’
The relationship with Ariaspil could have been misunderstood, and since this level of rumors was about the level of rumors, it could be dismissed at any time.
The fire that had to be put out was the damn joke assassin.
The joke assassin’s nonsensical legend had to end here. At this point, it was about to be said that the Great Demon and the Dragon were also killed as a joke.
[I think it might be?]
＜Shut up.＞
Keep your smile as bright as possible. If I reacted emotionally here for nothing, I could have an antipathy or counterproductive effect.
“Hey, I think you’ve misunderstood something…”
“…Ah, Ariaspil-sama!!”
In the crucible of suffering, just as I was about to give a hard explanation, I heard the same name as the Savior.
Everyone who heard the name shifted their gaze and gaze to the young Ae of the heroic family.
[Oh, that’s really pretty.]
It was as the sage said. It was hidden among the surrounding girls, so it was hard to see, but it was not enough to hide the beauty of the white-haired girl and the inside of the wall.
Even Leonardo, who was usually very interested in appearance, looked at her with a rather surprised look.
again and again
Even the hard and lofty tone, and even the sound of shoes, felt beautiful.
As noble as a cygnus walking on the surface of the water, Ariaspil walked towards Leonardo.
[…Yeah, but…]
The sage was either rational or instinctively intuition. The current situation, narrowly, the status of a girl named Ariaspil.
[His eyes are dead…? please…]
ticktack
The sound of the shoes getting sharper was reassuring the sage’s intuition.
But no more time was given.
“…Leonardo.”
Ariaspil had already approached Leonardo with a close approach.
The crowd with traces around them was divided around Aria and Leo as if showing a miracle.
“…Ah yes…?”
The hazy eyes that do not seem to be alive at all, those eyes that are not seen at all, were unique colors that cannot be seen unless they suffer more than the shock of the death of a family member or friend.
“…Follow.”
“…Yes? Suddenly…? What…”
“Follow me.”
In the end, I followed him without asking why.
Of course, that was because Leo himself was deeply loyal. Isn’t it the duty of chivalry to follow the master?
It was never, never because I was afraid. say no
“…”
“…ah… there…”
Arya turned her head and opened her eyes.
It was okay to just shut up and walk.
If you speak, the knight will be cut off and the head will be cut off.
It’s not a metaphor.
“…Leonardo.”
Aria stopped on the outside of the social hall, on the side of the terrace that had not yet been opened.
“…Yes…? Miss…?”
“…how’s the party?”
What is the purpose of the question?
If I say something wrong, my life will go wrong.
“answer.”
No, life is wrong.
“Very…! Very good!! The food is delicious!! The party is gorgeous!! Cool!!”
[Are you being too sarcastic?]
Leo knows it too.
＜Then you will die here?!＞
I do this because I know.
Life was irreplaceable.
“…Ok, fine?”
“Yes!! I like it!! I like it very much!! The people are all nice!! They’re kind!!”
The hairs on the skin stand quiveringly in fear. Manticore… No, I’ve never felt this way when fighting a dragon.
“…so good?”
Is that right? That’s right, so you’re asking?
“Yes. That will be fine!!”
“great?”
Is it… is…?
“yes…?”
cold sweat flows
“Are you okay?”
It wasn’t. Seeing the wise man as if he was watching a lamb being led to the slaughter gave the sure answer.
“…Actually… I don’t like it…”
“no?”
“Yes…?”
“Do you not like it?”
I guess this wasn’t it either.
Instead of vitality, life became more and more in the eyes.
I thought it was a multiple choice quiz, but it must have been a subjective narrative.
“…are you lying now? Are you looking at people?”
“It’s not… I’m sorry.”
First, the third answer, an apology.
match!
Suddenly, the wise man struck his forehead. what? did something go wrong?
“what?”
“yes?”
“What are you sorry for?”
Die. If you don’t make an excuse for that, you’ll be slaughtered.
“…I don’t know what I’m sorry about. Apologize?”
If it’s a joke or something like that, you could just kill him instantly.
“…that is…”
Turn the brain circuits as much as possible. We do our best to recall information such as sight, hearing, and touch. It’s like giving me a year of my name for every second I’m late.
“…now…”
“My feet hurt from shoes, but you made me walk in a hurry!!”
already dead what answer is this Even if it is true, this answer is not what I was expecting…
“…uh…?! Did you know…?”
…what’s the neck still stuck? Is it in this world? My mother in Hell was talking to me…
“Yeah? No one knew?”
Can’t you tell just by hearing the sound of footsteps?
Everyone would have noticed it at the point when the squeaking sound in the middle was stinging.
[Oh right. This bastard was a bastard who memorized all the musculoskeletal structures.]
It was true, but there was no need to say that.
If I explained it like that without hesitation, didn’t I become a huge madman?
“…I thought you were going to get sick…”
“…that… yes? That’s right…”
Life fades in the eyes, and vitality returns. Leo also felt a sense of rejuvenation in his life.
“…if it hurts, could you give me your foot?”
“…foot…?”
At Leo’s request, Arya sat down and put her feet up.
“…you’re wearing high heels. It’s a little swollen.”
He had a superhuman body from the beginning, so it wasn’t too bad, but honestly, I didn’t quite understand it.
“If it hurts like this, why don’t you just wear something else?”
“That’s because the person who gave you the clothes said it was pretty…”
If that was the case, I didn’t understand it any more.
“Why? Are you still pretty enough?”
“…Yes…?”
What respect?
“Is it pretty…?”
“Yes? yes yes You are pretty.”
It was strange to say that she wasn’t beautiful unless her eyes were squinted like a sage.
“You are pretty in the first place. You have combed your hair, trimmed it with perfume, and your dress suits you better than others.”
what is so strange
“…that…! I see…! Gogo…!”
Arya, I’ve never seen a person vibrate so fast before. Does it even resonate?
[…Leonardo, you are one of them.]
＜What?＞
[Homme fatale, end of human.]
What is the difference between a fool and an idiot?
“…Anyway, walking with those feet is unreasonable.”
“…then?”
“I’ll pick you up. ruler.”
Leo stuck out his back. It meant hurry up.
“…that…that’s a little…”
“…why? Isn’t it great?”
“Ah… no…! It’s going to be upsetting… well… that’s…”
Arya carefully grabbed Leo’s back. As I leaned on my broad back, I felt a comfortable warmth. The same 13-year-old, this boy’s back seemed only reliable.
“I’ll go…”
Leo couldn’t say anything.
A back and body many times larger than himself,
A sensation that paralyzes just by staring at it.
“You look pretty close with my granddaughter, don’t you?”
Marken Reinhardt, commander of Reinhardt’s Executioner’s Knights.
“…Ha…Grandpa?”
He was Arya’s grandfather.
For reference, in his previous life, Marken had a history of crushing one side of the pen*s of a knight who made obscene rumors with an aria.
Leonardo was very afraid that that would be his future in about 20 seconds.
Now we got a pen*so crusher
