Alchemist After Possessing chapter 52

52. Guardian Knight (4)

52. Guardian Knight (4)

I received first aid for a burst wound in the infirmary. Fortunately, it was a wound that had been healing to some extent before it burst, so even a simple healing magic stopped the bleeding right away.

When the professor who specialized in healing magic rushed in because of me passed away, only Sotia and I were left in the infirmary.

“Now raise your head.”

“…… “

Sotia is standing in front of my bed, head bowed. The fact that she couldn’t protect me seems to have left a huge scar on her pride.

“No, it’s really okay, so I’m going to raise my head? Other people misunderstand me.”

“… All right.”

“Thank you Sotia. If it wasn’t for you, something big would have happened.”

“…… “

Sotia squeezes her eyes shut. I said this from the bottom of my heart, but I don’t think it was something that Sotia couldn’t comfortably hear. Fredrick, the guardian knight of Larisha von Melloyer who assaulted me, was captured by the guards and taken away.

I know that the guards in Elena’s education district have some ties with the imperial family. Because of that, Federick was even worried that he would not be comfortable until he was escorted away for trial. After all, he is the guardian knight of the imperial family. However, that worry disappeared like snow melting due to the appearance of one person.

The bishop of the Order of Rosasia in the Elana School District. The bishop himself came out and explained the situation to Federik and the guards escorting him.

Woros Blood, which Federick attacked, was said to have submitted an application directly from the church, and had a capable student attached as an escort. In other words, he was a person the church was protecting.

Guards and Federik who will not be unaware of the relationship between the Empire and the Church. In particular, Federik’s face turned blue. The bishop looks at them like that, and when he visits later, he says that if the sinner is receiving special treatment, he will be really sad, and he goes back.

Sotia told me that Federik, seeing the bishop’s appearance, stretched out his arms to tie his hands tighter, and the guards kicked Fedric on the buttocks and dragged him away like a felon.

“Sotia, what do you think will happen now?”

“It will get very serious. Do you know seniors? The relationship between the Empire and the Holy Kingdom.”

“Yes.”

“First of all, won’t you come to propose an agreement with senior? Even if an agreement is reached, you will never see that Federik again in the Elena School District. And… Even if I go back, I want it to be very difficult.”

She nodded at Sotia’s words. Article. Also, a knight belonging to the imperial family assaulted a student. I don’t know what kind of misunderstanding came to me, but it was because of an obvious misunderstanding.

It’s a serious matter up to this point, but it has provided an excuse to the church. The punishment given to Federik will never be light. Even if you look at the eyes of the church, they will punish you severely.

I am the heir of Shaiza. And if you are prepared to proudly protect Shaiza’s knowledge and wealth, you will announce it to this world. That I am Shaiza’s official successor.

If that happens, I will also be involved. Like Shaiza did in the past, the Empire and the Holy Kingdom will fight to keep me on their side. In the past, Shaiza was unconditionally on the side of the weak, but I’m not that kind of a good person.

I was thinking of taking a look at the situation in moderation and sticking to the place where I wanted to make a profit. However, after going through this incident, my mind changed completely. Apparently, I have no ties to the empire.

“Senior, what will you do? A word from senior could make Federik’s treatment a little easier.”

“Sotia. What do you think is the most important thing in life?”

“Faith. Belief. Trust.”

“That’s an immediate answer. I mean. It is my life and stable foundation.”

“Yes?”

I closed my eyes and remembered. When I told Nishia about my plan to make potions and scented candles all night, sell them, put a workbench in the shop, and rent a shabby building in front of our shop to expand the shop.

At that time, Nishia sent eyes full of excitement and hope. My heart was like that too. But that hope was shattered. Because of Federik, all the potions and scented candles we prepared all night were broken. I didn’t have money, but things like display stands were all smashed to pieces.

“Sotia. This is the story of someone I know. Would you like to hear it?”

“Yes.”

“Since he was young, he had a strong body, so he trained in martial arts. It was a martial art called judo. He’s a champion when he’s grown up… That’s why I was given the title of the strongest.”

“What a wonderful person.”

I nodded.

“That person had a dream. Police… I wanted to do something to protect the weak from the wicked. I worked hard and made my dream come true.”

“So what?”

“During working hours, he fought for justice, and when he returned home, he lived his favorite hobby. Because the department he belonged to dealt with heinous criminals, he was stabbed 17 times in his twenties. And yet he never gave up his conviction.”

At the word belief, Sotia’s expression brightened.

“It was difficult, but they say they were happy and proud. Then the henchmen of the criminal he caught did the job. To retaliate, I raided his house.”

“… So how did it go?”

“I lost a lot. That person realized citizens. It’s good to protect everyone. The most important thing is to protect the people around you and your living standards. What do you think would have happened to that person who thought so?”

Sotia shakes her head with a serious expression. I lowered my head, looked at my palm, and continued.

“I realized, but he had some business to deal with. He sees a baseball room nearby… Holding a blunt He raided their hideout. He is said to have beaten as many as 16 criminals, several of them maimed. He was stabbed and burned, but he did not give up and fought and won.”

“…… “

“He returned, took legal responsibility, and retired from work. He was frustrated by losing his life base. Frustrated, he thought like this. He said that if the next opportunity comes, he will never lose it. He seemed to have overcome the trauma deep down, but he always ran away from the past. Even if there is a different basis for living. I was deeply moved by his story.”

Now my livelihood is clearly threatened. Irina’s sword strike and Knight Fedric’s attack. This is because I acted indecisively.

“That’s why I value the foundation of my life too. And Federick destroyed the foundation of my life. That’s my main enemy Should I forgive such a person?”

“There is no obligation for a senior to do so.”

“Yes. That’s it. I guess I’ll have to talk to Princess Larisha von Meloyer. If the princess’s breath was also involved in this matter.”

I will recognize Larisha von Meloyer as my main foe.

“We have no choice but to take action accordingly. Well, she can’t open her eyes.”

“… You are right.”

While we were talking about that, Nishia heard the news and came to visit us. While she was reassuring her, Elana Education District’s security chief and her assistant principal, Duralph, came and explained her circumstances to them.

In place of Eldenia, who couldn’t come out of District 6 because the sun had set, the bishop came. He gave her an explanation of her circumstances. What was really hard, was Sotia sitting on her knees in front of the Bishop. She said she made a mistake, and she struggled to keep herself from blaming herself.

Princess Larisha von Meloyer came last. I said that I wanted to talk to her and her alone, and sent Nishia and Sotia out. In the middle of the night, I came to the infirmary and only the two of Larisha were left. She sits on the chair in front of my bed and puts her hands together.

“Woros, are you okay? Sorry. Because I can’t manage people. I’m so sorry. Really… “

“… It seems that this incident has nothing to do with the princess.”

“… Actually, I don’t like being treated specially because I’m a princess. You let loose Frederick, a knight dispatched from the imperial family, too much. It is my negligence.”

Lerisha lowered her head as she said that. I know very well that Lelisha hates the imperial family. She hated the atmosphere and the situation in which all actions were politically charged.

One of the endings of Lerisha in Is to return to the imperial family, and after returning to the imperial family, she lives an affluent life like a princess. But. Lelisha doesn’t laugh. Even as she lives a life that anyone would envy, her face is hardened.

The second ending is Lerisha and Ren who finished all the stories and graduated from the academy. Get on a boat and go to a poor country. I had no money. A gloomy situation with no place to sleep right now. Even in that situation, Ren and Lerisha were smiling.

I saved up pennies by cutting wood and built a small house. He makes a living by opening a small bakery. It was hard to earn a living day by day, but Lerisha was smiling as if she was happy. In the small village at the end of the wooden fence, monsters occasionally appeared, but the monsters were helplessly subjugated by the final grown Ren and Lelisha. So they live happily without any crisis.

As time passed, Lerisha’s older brother, Prince Hyun, who became the new emperor, went to meet Lerisha by boat. Lerisha’s story ends with her head bowing and laughing as she sees her happy.

Even though she is poor, as long as she has a relationship with the imperial family, she feels happy, and she hates the imperial family. It is extremely unlikely that she attacked me using an imperial knight.

But there was something that bothered me. I need to make sure of that part.

“Fedric pulled me by the collar and said, Apologize to Princess Lelisha. What have I done wrong?”

“No, no! It’s wrong. There is nothing like that at all.”

“How does the chimney smoke when it’s not? Also, I heard that the princess appeared in front of my store with her guards. Doesn’t that have something to do with it?”

Lerisha lowers her head once more.

“That… I did it because I had to meet you. I was worried about you too. Irina is… “

“Are you with Irina?”

“Yes.”

“It just went well. If so, can you tell me something?”

When I said that, Lerry Sha raised her head. I don’t know why, but her face, which had been harboring despair a moment ago, turns bright for a moment.

“I can’t stand it any longer. This time, after being beaten by Federik, I definitely realized it. It means that I will never again be indecisive against the enemies who threaten my life.”

“I… Enemy?”

“Yes, my school uniform was damaged after the undead incident, so I don’t have any clothes to wear to class right now. You know that my class days are not enough, right? If you can’t afford uniforms, you’re fired from school.”

Lerisha shook her head as if to say no more. I ignored her and continued her story to her do.

“I stayed up all night to prepare trade tools. Isn’t that how you save money to buy school uniforms and live? But before I could start the business in earnest, everything was destroyed because of Federik.”

“That, that part… I’ll make up for it-“

“Are there any laws that prevent this from happening in the future? Let’s assume that this time, luckily it worked out. What’s next? Do I have to keep putting up with it? I hate it. So please tell me clearly.”

I narrowed my eyes. Lerisha then covered her mouth with her hand.

“The next time I see you again, I will take a hard line. If you’re going to kill me, prepare your mind and tell them to come find me.”

“I-Irina is no longer… no more you-“

“The same goes for the princess. Didn’t the Federick incident happen because of the princess?”

“That… that.”

“I will not lose anything precious. I’m not going to put up with it again. So please, princess.”

Lerisha von Meloyer is so huge. Compared to her, I was really nothing. It was nothing, but the background was so shady.

The Blood family was a notorious villain. Those who follow Lerisha favor Lerisha. Also, there must be many students who draw a line against me, the heir of the Blood family, who is attending the academy at the same time, as a villain.

Also, how can a student be bullied unless that kind of thought is at the bottom? That’s a sage with a karma level of 150. While reporting on Nishia’s work, I listened to Eldenia’s words about me and asked if it was true that she was bullied last year, and thought about it.

No matter how you think about it, the reason Woros is being bullied is that he is a member of the Blood family. Except for the fact that the princess was strangely obsessed with Woros, there was no hint. Like when he showed hostility to me before, it must be because of “Discrimination”.

As I said, many people would think of Lerisha as a good character and Woros as a villain. In that situation, because of [Discrimination], Lerisha became obsessed with Woros. Didn’t that symptom continue even after I possessed it? Last year was worse than this year, but not less.

Lerisha, a good character, interrogates her villain, Woros. It will look like this in the eyes of ordinary students. The good guys keep the bad guys in check. Teenagers, who will be growing up, are enthusiastic about such things. It was built so naturally.

The atmosphere that isolates Woros Blood. If you think about it, this work is also an extension of that work. The guardian knight who respects and cherishes her princess so much, can’t stand it and condemns me, her villain, and forcibly makes her bow her head to her princess.

Because of that, the picture of the bad guy bowing his head to the good guy is complete. Okay. The problem is Larisha von Melloyer. Because Larisha von Melloyer is interested in Woros Blood. Because she cared, things had gotten to this point. Therefore.

For the sake of your future life, you have to correct it.

“Please don’t pay attention to me again. If possible, I would like you to not pretend to know me.”

“Wait a minute, what is that?”

“You don’t know? If so, I will tell you for sure. It was like that just this year. That I’m hiding my power, that I stole an owl last year and raised a monster, what my identity is, and so on. Didn’t you say it out loud? On the second floor of the Melgard Indoor Training Center, while leaning against the railing and talking.”

At my words, Larisha shut her mouth. She has her face pale.

“Since it was during the joint battle exam, there were many first year students who did not know what happened last year. If so, what would the first graders who heard that story think?”

“Mi, I’m sorry. I think… “

“Oh, it seems that the princess of the empire hates that person a lot? Who is that? Uh… You’re from the notorious Blood family. Then that person must have been wrong. Wouldn’t you like to think?”

Lerisha gets up from her seat and grabs my hand. I shrugged off her hand and spoke to her.

“As I said, I never put up with it. Are you sorry? If you really have such thoughts, please do me a favor.”

Lerisha took a step back. I stared straight into her eyes and spoke to her.

“Please don’t pay attention to me again.”

Lerisha who heard me shook her head from side to side.

“Please. Please don’t threaten my life again.”

I bowed my head and asked her. Afterwards, Lerisha turned her back and ran out, so I couldn’t see what expression she was making.
