Episode 11
Pedestrians passing near the tavern stopped in the commotion of women and soldiers shouting.
Allen intermixed and watched them.
‘If you resist the soldiers in the current situation, you won’t see good results.’
“You took your money like that and ate it up, and what are you doing now… .”
“No, shut up!”
“Shut up if you have nothing to say. under. I’ve seen it all before. Eat without paying any money, and ignore anything that someone stole! If you have a real conscience, right now… !”
“What a damn year… .”
Indeed, Allen’s prediction was correct. The soldiers stood up, unwilling to bear her insult any longer.
When the soldiers who had been watching quietly stood up, her complexion turned blue as if in fear. Still, she never shut her mouth.
“It’s not because you don’t keep your promises! Uh, mama is out! Bring it! Bring me right now!”
Rather, he writes evil and shouts out of fear.
But none of the soldiers took her words seriously. The soldier next to the captain glanced around and whispered.
“Chief, if you leave it like that and get into the ears of the superiors… .”
“know.”
The captain looked around with distasteful eyes. The eyes of passersby passing through the street began to gather at her commotion.
“You don’t have enough money, haven’t you? A new noble, Confucius, has also come, but now it’s time to slowly withdraw… .”
The captain thought deeply and nodded.
Obviously, if you ate more leftovers, it would be over if you caught even a deermi.
The amount of money he gave to the guards who looked after him was getting bigger and bigger, and it was hard to bear.
It was time to end it slowly.
“Then, make it clear. Do you know how to clean up after all?”
When he finished the conversation, he glanced at the soldiers around him, and they chased away the passers-by who had stopped walking as if they were familiar with it. And then he blocked her way out.
“What, what! What are you going to do now, the price of your money right now? .”
The soldier behind him blinked.
– nod
At the signal, the soldier in front moved. he grabbed her arm
“Hey, let this go!”
She resisted the soldier’s cruel touch, but she couldn’t help but harden at the next word she uttered.
“Yeah, you want me to bring your mother?”
flinch-
Her body trembled. However, he clenched his teeth and spit it out in an arrogant voice.
“Yeah, yes. You’ve taken all your possessions, so why are you leaving your mother outside!”
“Yeah, yeah, it’s all good.”
The soldier’s hand followed hers up to her shoulder. He smiled darkly and whispered a little in her ear.
“I think the price is a bit lacking. I think a little cooperation from you would be enough… .”
Allen, who had been watching until there, moved.
“Depending on what you do… .”
A cold voice echoed inside the tavern. All eyes turned to him in an instant.
Allen had no intention of intervening directly.
Even a small movement of the escorting troops will solve the problem, so is there any reason to go out on your own?
Still, the reason for this was simple.
‘That girl… .’
I didn’t recognize it at first.
However, even among the filth covering his head, his characteristic black hair and purple eyes. I was sure of it when the familiar face that I had remembered with my lips clenched and stared at me merged with it.
‘It’s her.’
The existence that made him worry until now.
A girl who lost her mother because she sent a soldier late due to a fight with Julius before returning.
For revenge, a knight who slaughtered monsters right before his death in return for allegiance to Julius.
If things go differently from the past, a woman who will have a peaceful future without being aware of her talent.
Upon confirming that it was her, Allen immediately moved without thinking.
– Tub tuk tuk
The sound of distinct footsteps on the wooden floor echoed inside the tavern.
“Who are you? No, Sibel, on what kind of day… .”
The soldier, who spoke freely, looked at Julius’ luxurious clothes and the guards standing behind him, and smirked.
“No, Nari. I saw that wherever they went out, they intervened. If you don’t want everyone to go to jail, don’t worry.”
Allen frowned.
Did you see the family seal? Do you believe in the baron’s back? Or is it that you don’t recognize the Count’s pattern?
I laughed out loud at the thought that it could really be.
“You still don’t know who I am?”
“I don’t know who Na-ri is, just go. Don’t you know the current exhibition situation? Before all the remaining face is wrinkled… .”
At that time, one of the soldiers who was watching from behind got tired of the face, and immediately whispered to the captain in a small whisper.
– Captain! write… Looks like we’re all fucked. Isn’t that the noble Confucius who said that that pattern came to the application today?
-what?
He had his senses activated just in case, so he could overhear all their conversations.
Joe looked at the situation with an unimpressed face, then immediately opened his eyes wide and immediately checked the countess pattern on Allen’s body. And his face turned white, and he closed the mouth of the soldier who was talking nonsense.
“… turn off on… Whoops.”
“sorry. Confucius! I think this guy was drunk and talking nonsense. Please have mercy on me just once.”
“Javira… . Hearing this insult?”
He, who had been forced to shut his mouth by the captain, became as quiet as a gentle sheep when he realized that things were going strangely.
When Allen heard it, it was ridiculous.
‘The baron has changed, but the ones below are the same.’
Allen felt relieved that the only thing that had changed was the baron, contrary to what he had remembered, and was humiliated by the reaction of the men who seemed to reveal the family’s position.
Even though the city is not directly governed by the countess, the permanent residents belonging to the counties can’t recognize the counts’ patterns?
“Yes, Xavira. Mercy is good.”
As Allen looked at him with a clear smile, the captain seemed to turn away.
To be honest, I thought he was the son of a suitable merchant, so I was watching his subordinates’ actions.
‘If you do it wrong, your neck will be cut off.’
It would have been easier if it were the child of a wealthy merchant. Just by touching it wrong. For nothing, my subordinate was resentful.
“Then how are you?”
Allen asked her, who was standing beside her in the sudden situation.
“Yes Yes?”
“Isn’t it because of you? So I am asking you.”
She hesitated at his question, and when he asked one more time, she stared at the soldiers.
“I… . I feel like I want to remove the whole lower part of my body, but… .”
The faces of the soldiers turned black at her answer.
“I will quit. No, I’ll stop. It feels bad, but yet, nothing has happened. No, did you?”
Frowning at her strange tone, he spoke to her.
“If it’s hard to say respect, you can say it comfortably.”
As she lingered for time, Allen sighed and hurriedly hurried.
“hurry.”
“eww… . That, then… . Nothing has happened yet, so I’m fine.”
At her answer, the soldiers sighed in relief. But Allen just didn’t want to end it.
“one.”
“Choose one of the eyes or the tongue.”
“No, it’s different… .”
Allen’s face turned cold. Do these people not know the meaning of the words they said to the nobles, and also to the future masters of this land?
“When did I say I would do what she said? I was just asking for opinions.”
“Oh, that’s so unreasonable… .”
“you.”
The ring of his heart vibrated, and the intangible momentum swelled. As Allen took one step closer, a huge pressure swept around him.
It’s like pushing with a huge weight.
“You don’t know what it means to insult me.”
laughter comes out
Is this the reality of the countess today? Young Ji-min does not recognize the owner of the land and is rude.
“If it were any other nobleman, not me, you would have been decapitated. Giving me a chance to choose because I am merciful. So choose Which would you choose, eyes or tongue?”
-Sureung
The guards standing behind him drew their swords in unison. The meaning was simple.
Will you give up your life, or will you give up one of them?
The drunken soldiers could not even respond to their different standards and momentum.
“aah!”
“My, my eyes… !”
“Ahhhh!”
For a brief moment in the tavern, a terrible scream rang out late into the evening.
In front of him was a woman with a slightly different appearance than the one he had remembered.
Her tone, actions, and facial expressions are all different.
Allen was a little happy with the change.
It seemed to mean that the future could still be changed.
“that… . May I call you Confucius?”
When Allen answered, she hesitated and looked up.
“Why?”
When Allen, who had not seen her, asked a question, she opened her mouth carefully, perhaps nervous because she was in front of a nobleman.
“He, there… . What brought me here… .”
Saying so, she gently tied her collar.
Seeing this, Allen laughed. crazy guy.
It was early evening when I stopped by the tavern earlier, so it was safe to say that it was nighttime now. It was only natural for her to be worried as she was alone in her room at such a late hour.
I don’t think so at all.
“At least I don’t intend to take you, so relax.”
“… Hehe, too. Yes?”
Although she smiled awkwardly, she did not let go of her vigilance.
After washing it cleanly, her round purple eyes, black hair that went down to her back, and her pure white skin that had been covered with filth glistened in the moonlight.
‘That’s right.’
Allen knew she was right, but doubts outweighed joy.
Why was she suffering like that? Did the same thing happen before her return? Or the butterfly effect?
While she was washing, she looked at the black book and recalled the memories of the past, but there was nothing to guess. And she was also concerned about her mother, which she heard during conversations with the soldiers.
In the end, the reason why she changed to what Allen remembers had to do with her mother.
mother’s death.
Because that changed her.
So he looked at her and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized that he didn’t even know her name.
“name is?”
“Hey, hey! I have a very bad body. So don’t hit me… . yes?”
Her white skin turned red. ‘Cause she’s like a crazy kid
“What are you imagining?”
“That, that… .”
“I like being older, so a kid like you… .”
Allen raised an eyebrow and smirked and scanned her body.
Every time our eyes met, she clenched her body with a small mandible.
“It doesn’t fit my ideal type.”
When she deliberately pulled herself back, she let out a sigh of relief, perhaps a little relieved.
Then he protested a little.
“… Linbell, I’m not a kid. I’m fifteen now… .”
“Yeah, a little lady.”
As Allen replied roughly in agreement, her lips pouted as if she had vomited. It seemed like he didn’t really notice.
“So Linbell. you… .”
As she seemed to have relaxed somewhat, Allen spoke softly.
“What caused the conflict with the soldiers?”
“that is… .”
She trembled nervously and hesitated as she opened and closed her mouth.
“At first glance, it sounds like it has something to do with your mother… .”
Allen smiled comfortably and read through, and she slowly opened her mouth.
She wiggled her hands as she spoke.
“… Because the soldiers did not keep their promises.”
“promise?”
“yes.”
Waiting for Allen to continue, she slowly unraveled her story.
