Soul Rest (7)
“Do you eat rice only with good chopsticks?”
Ga-in waved her X-shaped chopsticks and muttered in a free pitch.
I laughed and shook my head. Even though I’m not good at it and I’m not good at it, I only eat well.
Jung Eun-seo can’t even use chopsticks as usual, but my brother and I just left it alone.

Of course he taught me the right way, but I didn’t point out that he couldn’t do it.
This is because our family’s iron rule that we should not be stressed during meals was the most important.
It’s not that I’m bothering others, and it’s okay to pick up whatever I want to eat and eat it.
Looking at it, Ga-in seemed to be on the same level. The prince looked at her hand and snorted lowly.
Uh huh, you can’t say that you’re already good at it.
“Does a meal need such delicate work?”
“It’s pretty fun, isn’t it? Once you get used to it, you may not even know how delicate it is. Even when I use a fork, I find my chopsticks.”
I then corrected Bakari-kun’s finger.
The youth gathered their lips together saying it was interesting.
It seemed too difficult to start practicing by picking beans, so today I decided to start with the small barquette I got from Yeriho Bakery.
All of them were made by the imperial baker who followed His Majesty the Emperor.
There was a request for understanding the assortment because there were not enough ingredients, but for that, the crust was filled with jam or smoked fish, so it was delicious.
It smells so good, I thought I could easily get rid of about 20 of them in one sitting.
“Hold it like this, move it like this… Just grab the target, hold it in place, and lift it straight up. It melts in your mouth.”
When I put the mushroom barquette in my mouth, Bakari-kun and Ganael widened their eyes at the same time. ha ha ha.
“My lord, you are amazing! It’s amazing!”
“If you are not good at bows or violins, you are good at handling such sensitive objects.”
…Bakari-kun knows too much about me. Hitting with facts is also assault.
“Look at this, am I good at it? Come see me!”
Next, Eva, who sat down, pressed me down.
I chewed and swallowed the delicious treat, and hurriedly went to the child and poured out praises.
Then, the little duke ate the strawberry barquette with a satisfied face.
So, how did something like this happen again?
‘Oh, I wish I had chopsticks.’
First of all, at a Saturday dinner, I found a thorn while eating fish and found my chopsticks.
Even though I knew it was something that was not found here, my instinct of living as a Korean for nearly 30 years wanted the tool.

Of course, His Majesty, having dinner together, came up with a completely different solution.
It was because he had never heard or seen anything called ‘chopsticks’, and he lived his whole life as an imperial family.
‘Isn’t it enough to call the chef and order a new plate? You’re not the only one to eat one plate.’
······ Well. Then it would look like he was scolding the chef, but he didn’t want to.
Still, he was a hard worker in supplying and managing precious food materials to the forefront.
A few thorns I was able to apply well.
Above all else, it is absolutely unacceptable to throw away such delicious and healthy food!
‘Yes, but having chopsticks gives you more options. It’s better to pick out small bones or foreign objects from food like now than with a fork. They are often more useful than knives for tearing or splitting food.’
‘·······The palace master is really enthusiastic. With that alone, the kitchen is going to take a lot of damage.’
‘Additionally, chopsticks help not only hand skills but also brain development. This is especially true for young children. I think it would be good to distribute it to the soldiers and teach them how to use it.’
‘What?’
‘François, what do you think? It’s simple to make. It looks very simple.’
The Emperor Hat looked at me with wrinkled eyebrows, but I was so moved that I brought in the Marquis.
The eccentric wizard had his eyes twinkled and he had listened to my plans.
Looking back, I wonder what he was thinking…
He seemed to feel more at ease as he rested and ate well in a safe place.
I was also receiving soul therapy every day.
“My lord.”
hot.
“yes?”
Did I say that even a tiger will come if I say it?
Around that time, François, who had a younger brother of a tiger, appeared.
He smiled at his friends who were preoccupied with their wooden chopsticks, then approached me and whispered cautiously.
“Bishop Blaise Bourne asks for an audience.”
“Ah, that’s already happened. It’s my treatment time.”
“It is so. Please give me the honor to have someone dear to me.”
The man gave a brief wink and held out his hand.
Perhaps because he was a good-looking person, he seemed natural and plausible no matter what bizarre movements he made.
I laughed roughly and left with him.
I left a message to my friends that each of us was practicing.
“My lord, ah! His Majesty the Crown Prince keeps laughing at me!”
“Prince, you shouldn’t tease your partner like that. It’s okay if your chopsticks aren’t perfect.”
Instead, you work harder.
That’s why I’m tearing up Ga-in’s kimchi, pan-chim-gae, and kimchi pan-chim-gae later!

After a while.
-Ttogak, Ttogak, Ttogak…
-Pumpkin, squash, squash…
The Marquis and I walked slowly down the wide hallway.
Everyone was reluctant to travel alone, so these days, when someone offered to escort me, I tend to receive it with gratitude.
The long winter sun came in through the windows of the castle and was rolling around.
Yeongjuseong here also looked different from the fortress in Lister in many ways.
I can’t express it accurately because I don’t know anything about this, but it seems that there is a difference in the shape of the roof or the shape of the curve.
“Come to think of it, I can’t see the gods.”
“The Aemul complexes are playing outside with the Heroic Spirit. Tite is nap time. It was carried to Sir Elizabeth with a full Aether belly.”
“Five. It’s when you’re at your bedtime.”
He answered naturally.
I tilted my head as I watched the workers walking around with guns in all directions.
Since Yeri is a temporary base for the Imperial Army, it was natural for everyone to be busy, but everyone seemed to be in a hurry today.
what? It’s not like there’s a battle going on.
“························································ carefully examined the pieces of cloth that Lofi-sama bought at the black market in various ways.”
“Ah yes.”
I woke up from my thoughts and was startled. Immediately, his eyes met the handsome man.
“Not long ago, the king… After testifying that it showed the power of ‘transparency’. In this analysis, not only military non-combat mages, but also advanced combat mages were mobilized.”
François was trying very hard not to hurt me.
I waved my hands to tell them not to worry.
“I’m fine, Francois. Yesterday, I succeeded in looking into more than half of the memories of that day with Bishop Blaise. I didn’t even stop halfway through. As the Bishop said, I know that that moment will not harm me in any way.”
From https://noblemtl.com
On the first day of treatment, the bishop just meditated and breathed with me for 50 minutes.
It was meant to release tension in the body and remind me that I was in a safe place.
I was definitely getting better day by day. really.
“I am so happy.”
“yes. The day before yesterday, I tried hypnosis for the first time, and I was surprised that it was so much more comfortable than I expected. It must have been because the bishop did not force the door to open.”
“The Bishop is by nature a great healer. I also got help from him at one time.”
From https://noblemtl.com
Oh······.
I looked into his eyes without saying a word. We smiled at each other for a moment.
That was enough.
The topic turned back to the present.
“Well. How was that piece of cloth?”
“It doesn’t have the ability to be transparent, unfortunately. As His Majesty Hanan confirmed, it does not possess any special ether, and it is no longer a magical tool. I also hypothesized that he was simply enchanted by invisibility magic…”
His voice grew even more muffled. The pale pink eyes gleamed with an awkward light.
I instinctively lowered my head and brought my ears closer.
“········The creator of that magic is His Majesty Alexandre Gukseo, who passed away. It is a high-level technology that requires nine circles, and I have never tried to commercialize it in my lifetime.”
“Huh, that’s right.”
“Yes. Berner Fenetian is an ordinary person who has no talent for mana and ether, so he would not have been able to craft such a thing by himself. Also, if there is a wizard with enough power in the new country, it’s hard to understand why they don’t play an active part in a war like this.”
“I heard it, and it is inexhaustible.”
“It’s not that suspicious. The ‘robe that obscures the presence’, which was often worn by the royal court, is also a top-class magic tool that uses 8th-grade magic to make it. How difficult would it be to make it transparent?”
“Huh…”
After hearing such an explanation, François, who had originally felt like a naive person, seemed even more amazing.
I put my finger in, admiring the side view of his raised nose.
There are too many mysteries these days.
first. Herit opened the Ark in the Temple of the Frontier, and dropped its contents, and the World Tree was injured. For reference, that was the setting material for ‘Toegye Gong’. The more I think about it, the more I get goosebumps.
second. Since that day, a white line has formed in the sky, and I am drawing a digit. But no one knows what it means yet. The Heroic Spirit said that it felt familiar rather than scary, but would it be fortunate if that was the case?
third. In the midst of this, Guk-seo wanders around in an SSS-class transparent robe whose origin is unknown, and it is impossible to determine whether he is alive or dead.
fourth. Besides, the paladin of the New Kingdom I met at the black market was a cardinal. He is even the one who caused the salt swamp to explode, but at the same time he is from Elissa’s side. Does that mean you’re a double agent? How is the politics of the new country running again?
fifth. In addition, Wilhelmina Sneijder is trying to cast a paladin. If there is plausible evidence, it is a person, a thing, and everything will be wiped out, so there is no way to accuse him right now. A demon who wants to become a god. Her conspiracies extended to the Yeri and the underground black market.
sixth. Every day I think of Prince Jesse waiting for me in Juliet. And in that white space, I also think about Prince Jesse, who asked me for sisters. What exactly is he in now?
seventh. The cursor that appeared during Juliette’s processing, still occasionally appears in dreams. It’s not a nightmare to be with friends every time. However, there are clearly those who want to protect the order of the world. Someone is watching us.
eighth. But at the same time, this world depends on me. Without me, it literally collapses.
Why is it ‘me’? what do i say You’re just a regular employee.
“Really, what am I?”
“You are the courtiers of Juliet, the marquis of Serenite, the one and only disciple of His Majesty Cardinal Orelli. Also, will you not be the one who will become the prince’s companion in the future?”
“······that! No, listen.”
“Have you not received the offer by now?”
But this yangbanit!
“Shh!”
‘Too many ears here!’ I smirked and dragged him to the corner of the hallway.
We were about to arrive in front of Bishop Blaise’s dormitory.
bean! François slammed his back against the wall and covered his mouth in shame.
I put my hands next to his head and completely blocked the escape route.
Why did you make such an irresponsible statement?
“I don’t know if the palace lord doesn’t know your sire’s middle name.”
Yeah, he’s big and he’s got great fuel economy!
“The covenant is . . . . That’s a hold, an indefinite hold. And what I told you is absolutely a secret from everyone.”
“Oh my God.”
As I groaned fiercely, the Marquis took a deep breath.
Looking at the glances on both sides of the hallway, there was no other spy movie.
“Hold on? Why?”
“That’s right, I have Krystel too!”
“Filip, guardian of chastity. But the rumor that the three of them are like that is true—”
That was then.
“Princess Juliet! Marquis Duem!”
From the other side, a knight wearing armor approached in haste.
I quickly removed my arms and organized my posture.
The Marquis also busily rubbed her head and cheeks, pretending nothing had happened.
The knight looked at us alternately with strange eyes as he raised his bow.
I calmly cleared my throat.
“Uhhh. What’s going on?”
“Ah, I’m sorry.”
She stole the bald cheeks, and immediately returned with a smirk in her eyes.
Then he said:
“A distinguished guest has come from the capital. His Majesty the Great Stanislas, the predecessor of the state, has arrived, and there is an order from His Majesty the Emperor to gather at the banquet hall immediately.”
