Famous Sword Master Aden (2)
If the representative family in the south is the Dunareff, the representative family in the east must be Aden.
Polar Guardians.
Since the establishment of the kingdom of El Las, the church’s holy land Jeruem and Zeon are located in the west, and the south has established trade routes including fertile soil and archipelago.
On the other hand, the eastern and northern regions were a hurdle for the kingdom and a frontier that could not be abandoned.
The North, where the North Kingdom, a united nation of savages, exists and has become the land of evil demons.
The East, which not only came into contact with the pagan empire, but also confronted with the blessed nature and constantly flocked to monsters from the barren land.
Has the East and North been stable since the kingdom was founded?
does not exist.
Absolutely no
Then, what is the reason that this eastern part has been able to survive until now?
All the people of the kingdom will shout the name of Aden in unison.
“Lunia Footnote has returned!!”
When the gate of the main house opened with a loud roar, well over a thousand disciples of Aden greeted us.
“Are you here, my lord!!”
“Are you here, my lord!!”
The sight of 1,000 people bowing down and saying hello was a rare scene even in a movie.
“Ummm…”
It is a thousand words, a black uniform that fills the field of vision.
It’s not usually dizzy as the workers who were doing maintenance work on the roof of the tiled building and the wandering servants came in.
The first thing to greet her is an old man dressed as a waitress. Contrary to his slender figure, the long sword at his waist proved that the old man was not an ordinary person.
“Lunia footnote. Thank you for your hard work hunting monsters.”
“What about the other group?”
“Except for Articles 13 and 19, they have returned.”
“Send the messenger hawk and check the situation. Organize groups with less damage into standby groups.”
“Yes, and…”
An old swordsman in a waiter’s uniform stares at me. To be precise, it was Arisha next to me. Before he could say anything, Luna spoke up.
“It’s my younger brother and his friends. Give me the Sarangchae.”
“All right.”
“Arisha, you follow me.”
“Ah, yes…”
Arisha followed Mr. Lunia in a cold atmosphere with a shrunken expression. Yuel touched my sleeve and asked if that bothered me.
“Where is Arisha going?”
“Because this is also his house. He must have his own room.”
“······is that so.”
“Guests this way.”
Sarangchae arrives following the waitress. we unpacked
Two hours later, while we were resting in our respective rooms, the courier who guided us came.
“Coryn Locke. Lord Lunia is looking for you.”
Alright, finally to the point. There was talk of marriage and a lot of questions. I need an explanation from her.
“This is the hall of the Lord of Lunia.”
Runia’s palace was calm and upright, just like the owner’s personality.
However, the gardens, ponds, and antique art pieces that decorate the corridors around her express her position in this arden.
candidate for next governor. If it wasn’t for Arisha… No, even if Arisha was there, she would be the actual next head of the family.
“Are you here?”
The halls of the royal palace, like those seen in old historical dramas. In the background, Lunia was standing.
From noble mtl dot com
I’ve thought about it many times, but he’s an upright person.
A perfect vertical posture as if an iron core had been inserted into it, and long hair that sat down finely.
Despite the voluptuous curves that the uniform can’t cover, it makes people mistaken for a general who commands the world rather than the softness of a woman.
“Sit down though.”
“yes.”
As I sat down on the cushion, she poured the kettle into my previously prepared teacup.
“Yes, I’ll be eighteen soon.”
“Because I’m the same age as my younger brother.”
“May I ask, honey. Are you married?”
“Uh… you wouldn’t have?”
“Right.”
Runia lifts a teacup and passes the tea. Even that simple action is upright and doesn’t make a single noise.
“If you haven’t decided on a partner, are you thinking of marrying me?”
“… are you serious?”
“Did I look like I was in the mood to tell lies?”
Probably not. Yes… I’ve known this person for three years, but I’ve never seen him say a single lie, let alone lie.
“Objectively, you’re an excellent seed. Your talent in martial arts and your diligent attitude are great. Your face, well, for my taste, it’s a passable line.”
“I didn’t know you had the personality to look at your face.”
“I am also a woman. I can only see the face and body of the lady who will hold me at night. ······Do you have any problems with sexual function? Then it’s difficult.”
“Oh no…!”
sister! Aren’t you too old?
“What’s your real intention? If you’re going to suddenly ask me to marry you, you’ll have to explain that much.”
“Oh, isn’t it a healthy time to imagine marriage at your age just by brushing against me? If a woman like me proposes, you should know how to take it lightly.”
“Most teenagers are idiots, but not stupid enough to decide to get married.”
“Are you serious?”
“······Most of them.”
Well… Lunia is a beauty.
Like a first-class model, the long legs and feminine, voluptuous lines make cool and beautiful coexist.
Still, this is different. More important is the circumstances in which he was told to come in as his son-in-law.
“Did you hear that Arisha became the 5th sword pedestal?”
“Yes, I heard.”
It was in the newspaper I read before leaving. Inauguration of the 5th sword pedestal that even Arisha didn’t know about. That was the declaration of the Sword Emperor, who was the former head of the family and still has an absolute influence on Aden.
“A senile old man suddenly appeared and declared. Appoint Arisha as the 5th sword pedestal.”
After hearing what Lunia said, I roughly understood it.
“Well, as long as you beat me in sword breaking, it was only a matter of time. I was planning on going through the procedures within the family and entrusting you with the 2nd or 3rd sword after graduation…”
The timing was bad. Basically, the sword emperor Garland, who lives in seclusion and doesn’t know where he is, suddenly appears and appoints Arisha as the 5th sword pedestal.
It was also when there was a reporter who came to cover Aden.
“By the way, what is the relationship between Arisha’s becoming a Sword Master and Mr. Lunia’s courtship?”
“Since the old man went out after making such a declaration, my supporters got excited. If you were the one who advised Arisha and came up with that outrageous plan, you would understand.”
I know what it feels like.
Lunia’s position in Bondi Arden was unrivaled.
Although they were candidates for the head of the same family, Arisha was no match for Runia in terms of bloodline or ability.
However, after the sword breaking incident, Runia’s position began to falter.
It was because the alpha of the pack of beasts, who was thought to be the absolute strongest, was defeated.
“Is it an arranged marriage…?”
“That’s right. We’re in the process of confronting high-ranking officials and high-ranking swordsmen in the east.”
“Recovering the position narrowed by the arranged marriage. From a political point of view, it’s a powerful move.”
“I don’t like that. I’m too smart to be a commodity in the marriage market.”
“So you want to make a false engagement with me?”
“Exactly.”
I know the big river. But the question still remains.
“But who dares to force Lunia Arden to marry?”
Forcing the world’s Lunia Arden into an arranged marriage. Could such a person exist?
“She is my mother.”
“ah······.”
It is said that there are no parents who beat their children, but at the same time, there are no children who can beat their parents.

As soon as Arisha unpacked her luggage in her room at the main house, she was distracted by the influx of visitors.
“Lady Arisha! This is someone who runs a dojo in the village under Palgaksan Mountain!”
“My lady, do you remember me?
They were all faces I had never seen before, and they were all unfamiliar faces.
Arisha is evidence of an extramarital affair that cannot even be a concubine. For that reason, in the Arden Street, it seemed to exist and not exist.
However, the atmosphere changed after the sword break with Arisha. I could see the ‘just in case’ atmosphere from summer vacation.
However, the blatant approach like this is…
“It must be because of installments…”
An existence like a king who has an absolute position in Aden. Sword Emperor Garland Aden. He suddenly instructed to appoint himself as the 5th sword prism.
“What the hell are you thinking…”
It has been like that since before. Even though everyone objected, Garland casually ignored their opinions and pushed himself as a candidate for successor.
It must have been since then that she, who was already a child of the family, began to be checked and ignored even more.
“My lady, this is a sword made by our family…”
– Jump!
It was then. I opened the door to my room and someone came in.
Black hair and sharp eyes like obsidian. She was a beauty with an aura similar to that of Lunia.
“Cow, Sophia-sama…”
Sophia glares at the merchants and the samurai instructors who have come to Arisha. Lunia Arden’s biological mother and the current head of the family, Jade Arden’s true wife.
“Is there more to see?”
“Oh no!”
Uninvited guests rushed out of the room in fear of being photographed when she glanced at her. Soon, only Arisha and Sophia were left in the seat.
“Oh, Mother…”
“Yes, it’s been a while.”
Dark-colored eyes stare at Arisha.
A voice without intonation, the same as the gaze.
From before, Arisha couldn’t stop shrinking as long as she was facing her gaze.
“You must have heard the news. Father appointed you as the head of the Five Swords.”
“Yeah… But I…!”
“Father’s orders in Aden are absolute. Your opinions will not be overturned.”
There is no accusation or accusation in Sophia’s voice. I just quietly state the truth.
“As a footnote of the Fifth Blade, you will have to work hard for the honor of your family and the protection of mankind.”
Sophia, who was saying that, put down a sword.
– Took!
A huge single-edged sword. It was a long sword that was slightly shorter than Arisha’s height.
“It is the commanding sword that is the symbol of each state. Select the members of the head family and establish their command and military exploits during their stay.”
“······yes.”
Arisha doesn’t object. no, i can’t The attitude of obedience that I learned from being born and growing up since I was a child has not changed since then or now.
Even if you know that you are not the kind of person who can be accepted by these people after all.
* * * *
Arisha trudged out of her room. It was because even if I stayed in the room, I would face only uninvited guests, and it would be better to train with Corinne.
He heard a familiar voice on his way to the Sarangchae past the outbuilding where he lived.
“Okay, then think positively.”
“Well… it’s not a bad story.”
“ah······.”
Two familiar voices. Realizing that the owners were her stepsister and Corinne, she inadvertently hid.
Arisha gazed at Runia carefully.
His cool expressionless expression slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and his dry voice was more excited than usual.
Emotional expression that is seen in a subtle way when the older sister talks to someone who is rarely exchanging favors.
“Hey, won’t you marry me?”
I suddenly remember what my sister said. I thought that the words that came out without context were indeed like an older sister.
Is there any reason? Probably. Because there was no way that my sister brought up such a serious matter as marriage for no reason.
However, if the reason wasn’t favorable, it wouldn’t be that either.
I felt it from the practical test of the midterm exam, but Lunia had both curiosity and goodwill towards Corinne.
Respect for warriors who have reached the level of a swordsman, and longing for the realm. Aside from that, if I hadn’t liked a man named Corinne, I wouldn’t have made such an offer.
“······It’s a good thing.”
Arisha likes both of them.
Lunia is the half-sister she admires and who acted as her mother when she was young. Right now, they are continuing an unwanted confrontation, but honestly, I hope she is happy.
Corinth is a special person to Arisha.
She believed in her talent, pushed her back and helped her survive her sister’s followers.
Those two get married. The two people you like become the closest.
‘It also suits…’
Runia is the candidate for the next head of the family who leads the swordsmen of Aden with natural leadership and charisma.
Unlike myself who is lazy and timid.
The two of them get along with each other, and they are people they like and respect.
It’s a good thing that two people like that have a kite.
Would you like to cheer?
I didn’t know that well.
Maybe it’s because she’s happy, or if she’s embarrassed by the sudden announcement of marriage, she’s in a light mood.

Three days had passed since we arrived in Athens.
In the meantime, Yuel has been collecting information from the spirits about the ‘Monster’s Forest’ beyond the borders defended by Aden, and Arisha has been busy saying hello here and there.
Since this is a footnote for the 5th Inspection, it seems that he is busy with administrative tasks such as staffing and handing over authority.
So, what have I been doing all this time?
“Did you have fun today? The actors in the troupe have better voices than I thought.”
“The catchphrase of a heavenly voice wasn’t too hype.”
“No, more than that, Corinne. I hope you enjoyed it.”
“Uh… yes. It was a different experience and it was fun.”
“Hmm, then that’s it. The most important thing is that you have fun, right?”
“·······.”
way back home. I see servants sweeping the yard. They glanced at us, but Luna kissed the back of my hand as if she didn’t care.
“Today was a good day.”
“…isn’t it my role as a man to kiss the back of the hand?”
“Um… You behaved as you normally would with young ladies. Next time, I’ll yield to you.”
Indeed, girl. Are you closer to a gentleman than a lady?
– Mommy mom…!
Seeing us like that, the eyes around us make a fuss.
“See you tomorrow. I have prepared a lot for you.”
It’s the third day since I came to Aden. I was passionately being seduced by Lunia.
