“Damn!”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian screamed and hurriedly turned her head.As soon as I entered the barracks, I saw the body of a man with his shirt off.
It also had a firm and muscular body, unlike the body of a general priest.

Vivian’s face turned red.She turned back and yelled at Ethan.
“Gee, what are you doing here?!”
However, it was Ethan who was rather absurd.
“Isn’t he the one who came in without even showing his popularity?”
“That’s right! Why are you doing that!”
“I was training my body. On the contrary, you can’t do it outside like this.”
“… … .”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian had nothing to say.‘okay! It’s just my fault for coming in!’
It was just so embarrassing that this happened.
“Hurry up, get dressed!”
“Anyway, I’m wearing it now. What is the dragon?”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian still turned back and said.“I came to ask if you had completed the report.”
“It’s all written down, so you can take it with you.”
Unlike Vivian, Ethan’s reaction was too dry.
He seemed to think that the person in front was not a person but a piece of wood.

Vivian cooled her burning cheeks with the back of her hand.“Where are you?”
“I’ll just bring it.”

Vivian held up the report Ethan had given her and rolled up the tent stiffly.That was then.
“Vivian? Why are you here?”
Cynthia was standing in front of the tent.
* * *
“… … .”
“… … .”
It was an unpleasant silence.
Ethan looked at Vivian and Cynthia alternately, and narrowed his brow.
Now the two were sitting at a table in Ethan’s tent.
‘What the hell are we going to do with this?’
Not eating, not drinking tea and chatting.
They were now in an awkward position.
“ha.”
Ethan blatantly showed an annoyed look.
“If both of you have nothing to do with it, just go back.”
Then Vivian and Cynthia opened their mouths at the same time.
“no. I have a dragon.”
“no. I came here for a purpose.”
Ethan was puzzled.
“Isn’t Miss Vivian’s business already over? Because I gave you a report.”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian quickly shook her head.“There were more! But now, it seems like the first thing to do is to deal with the affairs of the Crown Princess. Say it, my lord.”
“no. Because it’s not something to talk about when there are other people. You can say it again later.”
Cynthia smiled gracefully and refused.
Ethan’s head was pounding.
The atmosphere was too heavy for some reason.
If I knew the cause, I could solve it, but I couldn’t figure it out, so it was a problem.
It would have been better to face the Dread Predator one more time.
Ethan eventually sat silently with dead eyes.
‘Please come back quickly.’
I just wished that in my heart.
It was a long time later that Vivian and Cynthia returned to their respective tents.
* * *
That night.
Returning to her tent, Cynthia could not sleep easily.
When I ran into Vivian coming out of Ethan’s dorm, I couldn’t tell how surprised I was.
‘Looking at the report, it seems like he went because of work.’
Still, the low mood was not easily rectified.
Cynthia tossed and turned a few times.
‘When I came back safely, I was just happy.’
When I found out that Ethan had entered the plague outbreak, all I could think of was worry.
When I said that I had found a cure, I was relieved.
Later, when Ethan came out safely, he leaped with joy just being alive.
But she and Ethan had a lot of work to do.
Because of that, we couldn’t talk much in the morning.
So, Cynthia made time to visit at night.
However.
– Vivian? why are you here
Surprisingly, he saw Vivian come out of Ethan’s dorm.
Even Vivian’s face was very red.
‘What the hell happened inside?’
I wanted to know, but I also didn’t want to know.
Those thoughts continued to fill Cynthia’s head.
And, at the same time, I was heartbroken.
How much have you missed Ethan since he left Velium?
However, even after seeing each other for a long time, Ethan seemed to be indifferent.
Cynthia tore off the blanket.
‘He didn’t even seem to know how worried I was. Aren’t you stupid?’
At this point, Cynthia had no choice but to know her feelings.
And even when she was unaware, she acted boldly in front of Ethan without thinking about her status.
Of course, if the adults around me saw it, they would bite their tongues.
‘But I thought I had exposed enough, why?’
When he left Velium, he even gave Ethan a gift.
And even after joining here, he treated Ethan with special care.
Unlike other gods.
Still, Ethan didn’t notice any of those things.
‘I thought he was smart, but he wasn’t. I have no clue, I am an idiot and a pure idiot.’
I’ve been working with Ethan so far, and I’ve been admiring his outstanding talent and handling.
But now it seems that I need to change that thinking a bit.

a few days later.
The Imperial forces left Dunsell and began their march.
Having found a cure for the plague, he announced the cure to the nearby city, and headed straight for a fierce war with the rebels.
Under the bright sunlight, the Imperial army was heading towards Miles’ Fortress, Graytown.
Ethan’s face, who was in the ranks, had a chewed expression on his face.
“… … .”
It was none other than the two people beside him.
It was Christopher and Dylan.
They were looking everywhere with the eyes of a tiger.
“Christopher, there is no problem in front.”
“i get it. There’s nothing wrong with this either.”
The two wandered around Ethan, not allowing anyone to approach.
Even during a break in the middle of the march, this happened.
* * *
“Priest Ethan!”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian approached from afar, waving her hand.Seeing that face, Ethan became embarrassed.
The uncomfortable atmosphere between Vivian and Cynthia came to mind.
But Christopher was the first to see that expression.
“Priest, do you want to rest for now?”
“Then do you want to do something else during your break?”
“That’s the answer, Moonhyun Woo. Then I will help.”
chuck.
Christopher and Dylan stood in front of Vivian.
“What is it all of a sudden?”
“During rest, you cannot access Priest Ethan.”
“yes? why?”
“Priest Ethan needs to rest now.”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian had a puzzled face.Even after hearing the answer, I felt like I was falling into a more labyrinth.
She looked at what she was holding in her hand.
“I am not trying to disturb you, Priest Ethan. I just brought you something to drink.”
“Hmm? drink?”
Christopher’s eyes narrowed.
“Give it to me.”
“… yes?”
When Vivian offered the potion, Christopher poured a little of the contents and sniffed the smell.
“Certainly there are no poisons.”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian jumped in surprise.“What do you mean! This is just a simple nourishing and tonic potion!”
“I apologize if I was offended. But please understand. We are now closely guarding Priest Ethan.”
“yes?”
“Priest Ethan is the only one who has discovered a cure for the plague. Of course, neither the Dark Followers nor the Rebels will welcome this. So for the time being, anything that goes into Priest Ethan’s mouth will have to go through my hands… … .”
“Just go there.”
“Priest Ethan!”
At Ethan’s appearance, Vivian was delighted.
“These knights are weird. You suspect you’re trying to poison the priest!”
“yes. I heard. A nourishing tonic potion?”
Is it because of the mood?
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian felt Ethan’s eyes twinkle.“yes. yes. I was afraid that I would be very tired from the march, so I brought it. But now that knight… … .”
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Vivian looked at Christopher.Then Christopher flinched.
“Priest, I was just faithful to your guard.”
However, to Ethan, he looked like a thief trying to steal the Nourishing Tonic Potion.
In fact, Ethan didn’t care what Christopher and Dylan were doing.
Because it was cumbersome to deal with Vivian.
However.
-This is just a simple nourishing and tonic potion!
As soon as those words were heard, Ethan moved.
The potion was prepared by the regent’s daughter, so there was no doubt about the quality.
Ethan took the potion from Christopher’s hand.
“Miss Vivian, I will eat well.”
Ethan smiled at the joy of getting the potion for free.

Vivian was embarrassed, but did everything she had to say.“I’ll give it to you next time. Then come on.”
With only three of them left, Ethan pleaded with Christopher and Dylan.
“Whatever the reason, I have the confidence to protect myself. It will be difficult to come out like this next time. Be careful.”
“sorry.”
“No face.”
In fact, Dylan was scolded for doing nothing.
Ethan glared at the two of them and drank the potion.
And I muttered to myself.
‘I almost threw out a precious potion.’
* * *
After reminiscing, Ethan’s forehead deepened.
Even with such warnings, the seeds did not work.
‘I should have known from the beginning when it smelled like Blake.’
Even though he was a well-educated Blake, Blake was Blake.
Meanwhile, seeing Ethan in agony, Christopher thought:
‘It’s the first time you’ve been escorted like this, so you must have been very awkward. Since he is a faithful priest, it must be difficult to summon people.’
That was then.
“Well.”
Christopher found a fortress beyond the horizon.
He promptly pleaded with Ethan.
“Priest Ethan, I don’t think we should relax from now on.”
Ethan’s eyes were already on the fortress Christopher had seen.
“This is the fortress where the fiercest battles are taking place in our kingdom.”
* * *
Graytown Fortress.
Seongju Garrett was receiving a report from a knight.
“It looks like the Imperial Army will arrive soon.”
“Right. And do you even know if the news that the Saint Candidate has found a cure for the plague is true?”
“yes. The news appears to be true. Treatment has only just begun, but none of the patients receiving treatment say their symptoms have worsened.”
This meant that the treatment was quite effective.
“Good luck.”
Then the knight, Chase, nodded.
“yes. I think I can ease my worries for an hour since I also played an active part in Central.”
It was a warm consolation that did not go well with a face that looked dismal like an assassin.
At Chase’s words, Garrett sighed in relief and smiled bitterly.
“I am really happy. During that time, many soldiers died because I was incompetent. But I can’t tell you how reassuring it is to have someone so competent to replace me.”
“Don’t say that. Without the Holy Lord, this fortress would not have survived until now.”
“Thank you for saying that.”
Garrett turned his head out the window.
Wow!
The cheers of the soldiers could be heard from afar.
There was no other time when soldiers welcomed the Imperial Army as they do now.
“Finally here.”
