“Do you really need a waiter?”
At the words of the maids Ferzen had brought along with Sebas, Euphemia nodded and let them out and soaked in the warm bath water.
“ah… … !”
As soon as she bowed slightly, a piercing pain shot up, and Euphemia reflexively frowned and placed her hand on her waist.
“… … ”
I didn’t know it well because there was no situation in the morning, but when I look around my body now, the traces of last night’s love affair are engraved in every corner of my body.
Knowing that it was not erased, he rubbed his skin hard enough with his hands until it was red and swollen, but in the end, all that was left was a stinging pain.
snappy.
He knew that if he tried to be more stubborn here, he would only make himself worse, so in the end, Euphemia lowered her hands and took a bath, then left the mansion and walked around the estate.
“… … ”
The wall, which had been left unattended due to lack of money, is being repaired for a long time.
And even if they wanted to share, the empty warehouse was full of food, and there were lines of people receiving the food for free from the morning.
As soon as some Youngji-min, who was standing far away, made eye contact with him, lowered their heads as if they had no face, Euphemia thought that she shouldn’t be standing here, so she quietly moved forward before attracting more attention.
sabak.
sabak.
sabak.
That man–As Ferzen von Schweig Brutein said, it was the best result that could be done except for his own personal feelings.
Because things that couldn’t be achieved no matter how hard they tried for years were being resolved neatly like a lie.
But why?
Euphemia missed those times.
And most of all, not even a few months old.
I vaguely remember the moments I had with Ciel Midford.
Was it because it was the memory of being able to rely on someone for a little while without being alone?
‘I hope you are safe… … ‘
Since there was only one horse in the estate and sent it on a ride, if you survived, you could sell the horse later to get the money you need to live and settle somewhere else.
I didn’t even think it was worth it.
It’s a humble tribute to a man who was like a reliable knight who served and followed him like a master.
In fact, at that moment, when I saw Ciel, who was getting farther away, forcibly reaching out to him, I thought about escaping the territory together.
But, judging that he would be able to receive even a little better treatment with his confidence, he lowered his half-raised hand and watched him quietly disappearing over his eyes.
Of course, now it has become a meaningless worry.
Because the results were good enough that my worries were futile.
Because of this, Euphemia felt like a lost child.
Rather, if that man, Ferzen von Schweig Brutein, had been harsh on the people of the territory, there would have been something he had to do anyway.
sabak.
sabak.
I don’t know where to step.
When people lose the motivation to live independently, do people become so helpless?
If he simply wanted personal happiness, then he would have escaped the territory with Ciel.
That choice is a cost sunk as a result of the present.
Time passed irrevocably.
sabak.
“Eupemia El Laurenne Ruerg.”
“… … ”
A low-pitched, low-pitched voice.
Looking at the large shadow cast in front of her, Euphemia raised her head and looked at his terribly self-righteous face.
“If you are going to shed a tear, shed it with both eyes.”
“under… … ”
Isn’t it a feat to say that you don’t like a crying little baby boy?
“The carriage is ready. You don’t need to bring your own luggage, so come with me. I am leaving this place right now.”
“okay… … ”
There was no energy left to respond.
It would have been better if he was simply trying to control himself by putting on a leash, but the man in front of him was even more cruel than that.
A bird trapped in a cage longs for freedom and flaps its wings with a dream that one day it will soar towards the blue sky… …
A bird with its wings ripped off couldn’t do that.
To the man in front of him, Ferzen, he would be nothing more than an ornament to decorate the house and a stuffed animal after death.
He has to listen to what he has to say, but what he says doesn’t reach him as if he were talking to a wall.
“Do not depart.”
The wagon moves without any shaking, so that he doesn’t even feel the reality of leaving Ruerg, his territory, where he has been living for a long time.
If I hadn’t been able to watch the figure of Youngji getting farther out of the window, I wouldn’t have even realized that Euphemia was leaving.
“Stop, look… … ”
I wish I could close my eyes and get some sleep.
The man sitting in front of him, Ferzen, doesn’t do that, but just stares at him with his chin clenched.
In the red eyes that are so red that goosebumps sometimes flew by, I wonder if they are reminiscing about the moment last night when they teased and hugged themselves as they wanted.
Despite the rising shame, even though he was wearing clothes, he closed his legs and put his right hand on his left shoulder to wrap his chest and hug him, but I felt a sense of sweeping and passing over my skin.
“… … ”
In response, Euphemia gave up meaningless rebellion, leaned her head comfortably, closed her eyes, and quietly became his spectacle.
heart is tired
Sleep is an equal refuge for all.
Using the flocking Suma as a blanket, Euphemia went to sleep.
* * * * *
‘Even if you lean your head… … ‘
Watching Euphemia exhaling evenly with my head leaning to the left from the opposite side of mine, I felt a twist in my stomach, so I quickly shifted my seat to the right and put my chin up.
When Euphemia’s seat and my seat are diagonally symmetrical, I feel more at ease.
‘really… … It is a body that suffers from buying.’
Later, when he died and entered the coffin, if the left and right symmetry of the coffin did not match, this body would probably refuse to be put into the coffin even in death.
「Special ability」
▶???
▶ Numericalization
It takes a lot of time to go through the northern part to the central part of Brutein, so in order to use that time as economically as possible, I decided to deduce a part of the status window — a special ability that wasn’t indicated.
In fact, this unmarked special ability is beneficial, but in the long run it is a disadvantage.
Because this body is the villain who robbed the heroine of the main character according to the novel’s setting anyway, so the more talented he is, the greater the potential of the main character will be.
‘Let’s go back to the memories.’
The novel, Surviving Like a Crazy, was a work in which the setting column, which separately interpreted the setting of the world view, was quite active.
And as it is a work of love, I have a complete memory of the setting of the world view because I frequently visit and browse through the setting section after reading the latest episode.
Ferzen von Schweig Brutein is a relay—Euclidean-class warlock, so if you compare the settings related to this, you can get a sense of what special abilities are not listed.
black magician.
In ordinary cultural media, the setting is downplayed, taboo, and mentioned as a continental achievement, but this is not the case in this novel.
The identity of the warlock is the art of corpse work.
It was possible to realize up to 90% of his abilities while he was alive, depending on his familiarity, including his own qualities and skills, the degree of damage to the corpse and his understanding of the corpse.
Therefore, the more aristocratic families with a long history, the more the bodies of those who became Auror Knights or elemental wizards are strictly managed by the family to prevent permanent decay.
‘In this regard… … There is no deviation from the setting.’
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Memories that showed outstanding qualities due to the understanding and affinity of the corpse written in the talent flashed through, but at least I could not point out the factors that showed something that was not mentioned in the setting or that caused the setting to collapse.‘then… … ‘
Pointing her forehead, she recalls the past a little more.
In this novel, the warlock has the power to make deals with the underworld apart from his ability to minister to corpses.
The monsters of the underworld that are arranged are random, and what must be offered in return is wealth with a high value.
Among them, rather than simply expensive ones, the higher the rating is, the higher the value is for a long time.
Therefore, this ability is practically meaningless to the poor.
‘found.’
As I continued to look back on the memories of the past, I finally found out that there was a part that was out of sync with the setting.
Warlocks, by default, have their own altars.
And if you make a deal for the ceremony even once, the altar becomes a subspace, so of course Ferzen also tried to make a deal with the monster of the underworld to get that convenience.
The problem is that, despite the first transaction, they returned a certain portion of the offering offered by the monster of the underworld that was arranged was excessive.
In the setting of the work, it is recorded that the offering will not be reduced unless you achieve a certain number of transactions and become a VIP.
‘But only this… … ‘
Would it be at a level that would present the inconvenience of not being marked?
I frowned and tried to recall my memory a little more, but the carriage, which was moving quietly, suddenly rattled and stopped.
“There is a problem.”
The driver sitting in the driver’s seat quietly opened a small partition and vaguely conveyed the situation outside.
Then I got up, glanced down at Euphemia, who was sleeping deeply, opened the carriage door, and got out.
“… … ”
As soon as I get out of the carriage, things like very transparent and sticky solid lines stick to my body.
At the same time, something faintly visible from afar, based on Ferzen’s memory, it would be Erbet Arachnei, who lives in the snowy mountains of the northern region.
‘Did you come down to entice the young and teach them how to hunt?’
To remove Erbet Arachne’s spider’s web, it is necessary to put oil on it, light it and wait at least 10 minutes.
Of course, if you give it that much time, you will still be hunted.
I reached out to my pocket and took out my glasses.
Since Ferzen has extreme obsessive compulsive disorder in symmetry, the act of wearing glasses has a special meaning.
Ting–!
Cobwebs lined up in all directions sway all at once, and baby Erbet Arachne swarms in like a swarm.
Then, the moment I confirmed that the flimsy patterns engraved on the bodies of those young Arachne were not symmetrical, I bit my lips in instinctive displeasure.
Shrek.
The one that Ferzen made the altar was the ring on her left hand.
And through the subspace engraved on the ring on my left hand, I laid down the coffin in which the body of Bavarian von Griel Brutein, the 27th head of the Brutein family, was sleeping on the floor.
As the Warlock’s work skills are affected by their familiarity with the corpse, having the same bloodline gives them a number of advantages.
shudder!
Being tied down with magical powers, I bowed my head when I saw Bavaria von Griel Brutein, who opened the coffin and raised his body as if it were a very natural thing to do.
This is gratitude for the previous generations who left their bodies with the determination to dedicate themselves to the family even when they became soulless and dead.
‘exactly… … ‘
With such a strong sense of choice, Fersen feels that it is worthy of exuding pride and attachment to the family.
Black Mage.
A link that connects the past and the flowing present, allowing the dead and the living to coexist.
ta–evil!
Before long, the 27th head of the family, Bayern von Griel Brutein, hit the floor heavily with the staff he used during his lifetime.
Did somebody left necronomicon next to imperial constitution?
