140 – Rumors
Around the time most people go to bed to prepare for tomorrow.
Aside from the patrolling knights, most of the people who went out at this time were the kind who could wake up late or were married men who didn’t want to go home and dragged their future.
“Whoop whoop…”
And here, there was a porter who was neither eligible.
“Oh, I can’t stop laughing at this.”
I tried to hold it in, but I kept bursting into laughter.
As if the organ that controls emotions is out of order.
As evidence of that, the lingering aftertaste still made my heart pound without thinking that it would disappear.
Is this how it feels to be waiting for your girlfriend in the military?
‘The world seems so bright just because someone likes me!’
Of course, it was late at night, so it was dark unless you were near a street lamp, but at least it looked bright in the eyes of the porter.
Although it’s not a certain relationship yet, wouldn’t this be enough to be considered a thumb?
“Uhhh…”
Once again, I burst into laughter without realizing it.
‘I can’t believe I’m some.’
A 25-year-old feels like entering a golden age, which can be considered the most exciting moment in life.
-Kyum.
As I was walking, I stopped and laughed repeatedly. Kwyidori grumbled with the sound of bolmen, as if I was not happy with that.
“Do you like it? You say that? Of course it’s good. You’ll wait for me to make up your mind.”
Even if your mouth and actions are a bit rough, the inside is also heartfelt… Isn’t this the highest and purest child waiting for me?
I’m going crazy with the feeling of going back and not going back and forth.
“Sweet enough to rot your teeth.”
-Kyum.
Even after that, she didn’t go head-to-head with Kyu-dol, although she said something. Her self is wise or whatever.
‘Why do you seem to be on the quiet side today?’
That time when I was walking down the street playing Tiki-Taka with Kyudol.
“Wait, there.”
I looked in that direction when I heard a voice calling me from somewhere.
“It’s suspicious that you keep laughing and talking to yourself from earlier. Please cooperate with the inspection.”
A pair of men and women patrolling the knights approached me.
What? Check?
“Of course I should.”
Yes. I’m in a good mood right now, and they’re Sonia’s seniors. Furthermore, even the people of the empire have one step left in the future, and there is nothing they can’t do.
When I came out cooperatively, I took a small needle from the pocket of the woman who lives here.
Why did you take that out?
“Hey, why are the needles…?”
“I suspect mana poisoning, so I will conduct a blood test. Is there any chronic disease?”
My head was pounding at the word mana poisoning.
In the original story, after the death of the crown prince, the emperor, blinded by revenge, declared war according to the demons’ plan, and all the forces of the empire headed to the battlefield.
Naturally, the absence of the knights in charge of security within the empire led to various problems, one of which was the distribution of a narcotic drug called Beyonder.
‘But it’s happening now?’
From noble mtl dot com
I don’t know why, but it seems to have the effect of twisting the story.
It’s a worrying situation, but that’s not what’s important right now.
‘Mana poisoning. Are you suspecting me of being a drug addict? What do you see people as….’
He hesitated.
I was moved for a moment, but I objectively recalled what they must have seen.
A situation where a man with black hair and a costume that stands out is walking late at night laughing and talking to himself.
“….”
Sure.
Accepting the reality, I just held out my hand in silence.
It’s about the knights of the empire, so I’ll check it like this, because if it was a kingdom or another village, they would have been arrested.
“It will sting a little.”
As the needle pricked his fingertip, a small drop of blood rose from the spot.
When I put a piece of blue paper that looked similar to litmus paper on it, it sucked blood and turned it red.
A puzzle appeared on the face of the male knight as he examined the paper.
“Senior, isn’t this too red? If it’s a voice, I know that at least purple should come out…”
When the man who seemed to be the successor asked, the female knight answered.
“It’s not necessarily like that. Those with deep faith have strong holy power, so the mana in their body is replaced with that. In that case, there are cases where it doesn’t manifest like this.”
Am I religious?
Do you like being criticized by our goddess?
I was having time to think deeply about the taste of a goddess for a while when a female knight spoke to me.
“Are you a member of the Holy Kingdom?”
A female knight with a troubled expression, like a government official who accidentally touched a high-ranking foreign official.
“That’s not it.”
Isn’t it a bit like pretending to be a priest?
“That’s not it either. Hmm…”
After thinking about it for a while, the female knight made a decision.
“Still, it’s red, not blue, so I’ll judge it by voice.”
“Yes. Good job then…”
“Wait a minute.”
Since the examination was over, she called me to stop me once again as I was about to leave.
‘What’s this time….’
She looked back nervously.
“Thank you very much for agreeing to the inspection.”
Nodding off.
Contrary to expectations, articles appear in a low profile.
‘What else am I saying…. It’s frightening people.’
“Anyway, since this kind of problem is spreading these days, we have no choice but to conduct the test unconditionally. However, since this is a sensitive topic, complaints often come in asking if the subjects are treating themselves as drug lords, so there was a negative response. For those who came out, we are presenting a small but souvenir.”
‘No, it’s not blood donation, it’s a souvenir….’
“If you tell me the identity of the teacher, I will arrange for you to receive the souvenir later.”
I’m really sorry, so I tried to explain it in a way that I couldn’t help but I’m rather choked by that kindness.
How do I prove my identity….
I passed through the castle gate as a warrior party, and the mark has been lost for a long time.
A situation in which he was in trouble due to his excessive kindness.
Why are you working so hard on public affairs!
“….”
As I stayed still without saying anything, their eyes began to narrow as if they felt suspicious.
“…Can I see your ID for a minute?”
Unlike before, the title of teacher was omitted.
“That, I forgot when I came out and left it at home…”
“…I will conduct a body search for a while, so please cooperate. You take care of the pants.”
“Yes, senior.”
They started searching me as if there was nothing to see.
-Tuk-tuk.
While the female knight was checking my upper body here and there.
Poljjak.
The kkwidori that was on my shoulder moved over my head.
-Kyum.
That’s why I’m laughing so hard that I’m scolding you for being suspicious.
No, here, the part that I was suspicious of because you talked to me is definitely there, so why only me….
While I was complaining about my injustice, the female knight who had been searching all over my body opened her mouth.
“There is nothing special.”
Yes. Where is there someone as sincere as me? Except for not paying taxes, it’s perfect.
That moment when he was relieved that the moment when his innocence would be revealed approached.
“…Senior. Let’s take a look at this.”
The male knight who was checking his pants called the female knight in a serious voice.
“This is…”
The problem was the platinum coin he was carrying around in his pocket.
“Where did all this money come from?”
Ah.
My mouth went dry when a large amount of money worth a total of 500 gold coins came out like evidence.
“Hey, that’s it…”
“Here’s a women’s wallet too.”
In the hand of the male knight was Talia’s wallet, which boasted a cute design.
“It must have been a pickpocket… Did you target the rich?”
It’s unfair to be a pickpocket. It was something that was in the luggage that was handed to me in the first place!
“No! No! A pickpocket!”
I just kept it because the owner didn’t ask me to return it.
You get paid to keep it, so even taking it out a few times can be seen as a legal area, but such a harsh treatment.
Of course, Talia, who did not even dream of that fact, gave up after looking for it for a while at first.
“So where did you get this money from?”
Are you just going to tell me you got it from the emperor?
I can’t even prove it, let alone believing in it, but I don’t think I’ll see anything good by mentioning the emperor. The same goes for party members.
“….”
“If you can’t reveal the source, we have no choice but to arrest you on the spot.”
I can’t help it. I need some help from a girl here.
“Hey, maybe Sony…”
“Me, senior.”
As I was about to sell Sonia, the male knight suddenly opened her mouth.
“My youngest.”
“Sonia? Why is she that child?”
“Rumor has it that the reason the youngest joined the Knights was for a black-haired lover…”
A glance.
A man who carefully examines my hair.
“Hmm…”
“But there are rumors that he is quite a promiscuous and dishonorable person…”
What is that?
The eyes of the two knights turned to me.
No, that’s really unfair.
Then the female knight asked with a questioning look mixed with contempt.
“Do you know about someone named Sonia?”
“That’s it…”
Wait, what kind of treatment will Sonia get if I say I know here.
A man with bad rumors, driven into a predicament, mentions the name of his lover, a knight?
“No…”
I held back tears and pretended not to know Sonia.
“As of this time, we are arresting you as a bad credit person who entered the country illegally.”
-Clap.
In the end, a cool silver bracelet was wrapped around my wrist.
I wear all the silver bracelets in another world that I couldn’t even wear in modern times.
Less than an hour after I found happiness, I was arrested on the spot on my way home.
