chapter 11
11 – Encounters
‘Still not enough.’
I frowned as I looked at the assassin’s cut. The sword was wielded with a tired body, but the cross section was cut more roughly than expected.
The precision and sharpness of the swordsmanship was less than I expected.
Of course, it was clear that they had made great progress so far. Probably, except for the men of Irrel, you can count on one hand those who have reached this level at the same age as me.
“Is everything… Sorted out?”
A voice came from behind. When I turned my head, the family knight was stopping the bleeding.
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry. Our knights were supposed to escort you, but you were injured…”
“No. It would have been really difficult without you guys. The level of assassins is high.”
“Sorry.”
After tapping the self-blaming knight on the shoulder, I got on the carriage. This was the fifth group of assassins. If I hadn’t reached the sword expert intermediate level, it would have been really dangerous.
‘I’m tired…’
I haven’t done anything to Irelle yet, but the check has already been too severe.
——————————————–
Assassins rushed at Robert-sama, flying poisoned purple daggers. Robert-sama twisted his body and put the weight on the sword.
Robert’s lengthened swordsmanship accurately cut the assassins’ throats.
“Oops!”
It was an incredibly clean blow. They are targeted by skilled assassins wielding poisoned daggers, but how do you skillfully counter them? It was a strength unsuitable for such a young age.
Hummel clenched her fists and looked at her with envy.
“As expected Robert-sama…”
“It’s not just anyone who is the youngest to graduate from a knight training school.”
“Looks like you’ve already reached the Expert Intermediate level.”
The poisoned knights on the cart admired it. The reason why he became an object of envy among knights was not simply because of his genius.
He was adept at fighting to the point of being a genius. No matter how skilled a knight may be, he lacks experience because he is young. That’s why he could be attacked by various techniques of assassins, but he responded as if he had expected all of them.
Because Robert took care of all the assassins, all 7 escort knights were poisoned, but all survived.
“These guys pretended to be strong and put strength on their shoulders. They went to escort the young master and instead came under escort???”
“Sorry, the assassins were too strong.”
“Ah, so 7 escort knights were escorted on a cart?”
“Sorry!”
“I can’t hold my head up because I’m shy. It’s high-intensity training starting today. Everyone knows you’re going to die!”
Roskal shouted. As the knight commander of the capital’s mansion, his blood pressure rose and he felt like going crazy.
He went out to meet the young master’s arrival in the afternoon. And he was surprised by the blood on the carriage and was relieved to see the uninjured young master. And he was horrified to see the poisoned escort knights huddled in the cart.
It was shocking to see the guys who failed to escort innocently exclaim that the Assassins were stronger, but the Bocchan was stronger.
No matter how much I thought about it, I was so angry that I hit the head of the guy who was trying hard to explain.
“Ah…Why are you hitting me? I’m suppressing it with Ki, but I’m that injured because of the poison.”
“I’m really embarrassed to see the young master, I’m dying.”
————————————————————————- —–
After washing, I looked out the window. The world of black comic books has arrived.
No matter how many times I try, I never get used to it. Black lines cover the blue sky and sun, clouds and people. The carriage arrived just as the black lines approached and covered the mansion.
A pretty girl like a doll got off the carriage. It was Irrel.
She approached her, greeted her, and handed her the flowers she had prepared.
“It’s been a while. How are you?”
“Yes. I’ve been well. Wow, the flowers are pretty.. Thank you”
Then a man got off the carriage.
With his tall height like a model, long black hair and a pure white face, he was Richard, the heir to the Grand Duke of the North.
He is one of the main male leads and one of the few geniuses in the history of the empire who will soon become a sword master.
Following him, Cassionis, the grandson and disciple of the archmage, Belus, the high elf, Credion, the heir to the caravan, Antares, the assassin of the black dagger, and finally Arsene, the crown prince disguising his identity, got off the carriage in turn.
“These people…?”
In her previous life, Ir El spent her vacation in the academy dormitory. Since this life is spent in my mansion, I thought I wouldn’t bring other people with me…
“These are the friends I made at the academy.”
Unlike before, he introduced the male leads one by one with a confident voice.
She’s not even theatrical, she smiles when she turns her head and meets her eyes, but when she looks at me, she’s straight and scared to look at me.
Especially, the eyes of Antares with the black dagger and Arsene, the crown prince, were frightening. It was not a normal look. The back of her neck was cold.
‘No, but does it make sense to bring 6 men to my fiancé’s mansion?’
It turned out to be different from the plan I had in mind.
While guiding them to their room, I listened to Irrell talking about life in the academy.
Like the main character in the cartoon, there were many incidents during the six months. I heard stories about being accused of thieves, demons breaking in, someone disappearing, and making friends.
I know the story to some extent, but it was new to hear from her.
“Our mansion is so big that it can’t be compared to this one. Shall we go play next week?”
“Why don’t you go to the elves’ forest? Humans can’t see it, but I’ll let you see the World Tree in particular.”
Male leads constantly intervened between me and her talking.
Not only did she keep her in check, no matter who talked to her, they constantly appealed to her.
Irrel responded skillfully and seemed familiar with this situation. It was amazing how she changed in 6 months. Or maybe this is what it looked like.
Even though I was there for a while, I was tired of the men fighting.
During that short conversation, they broke my mansion and identity and appealed to themselves. It’s late and El is tired of taking her wagon for a long time, so I decided to see it tomorrow morning.
I dragged my exhausted body and lay down on the bed.
‘It’s hard…’
Fighting among men was more difficult for me than fighting assassins. Even the six people who followed me to the mansion were more difficult because they were among the top 10 even if I looked at the whole at my age.
As soon as I closed my heavy eyelids, I fell asleep.
I woke up to the sound of birds chirping. After washing her clean and trimming her hair, she entered Ir-El’s room and her six men were already surrounding her.
“Good morning, Yirel!”
“What kind of tea would you like today?”
“What would you like for dessert?”
“Sugar full as usual?”
In order to say even one line, I joined in the fierce competition.
After lunch, we took the gate and moved to the Elf Forest.
Belus, a high elf, smiled confidently and said to Irull.
“How do you feel when you first set foot in the elven forest?”
“Wow… Prettier than I imagined.”
Irr El said she was an elven forest, so she only thought of the dense and huge forests of the earth.
It was different. Trees, flowers, and grasses had overflowing vitality. Fresh air pierced her nose and a breezy breeze tickled her face.
And before I knew it, fairies came and sat on my body.
“So cute…”
She raised her genie gently with her palm, sitting near her body.
It was so small and cute that it was precious. A fairy with a cute face and small arms and legs that I usually imagined wriggled on the palm of my hand.
Bellus, who was happy to see her caressing the glowing fairy, opened her mouth.
“Fairies like those who are pure or have a good appearance. That’s why fairies usually don’t approach humans.”
“Really?”
“It means that you are as beautiful and innocent as your fairies have approached.”
Ir El looked around his head at those words.
He had 10 to himself and about 30 to Bellus. Excluding Credion, which didn’t stick at all, about 5 others attached.
“Huh…?”
At first, there were about 5 fairies attached to Robert, but one by one the fairies began to attach to him, and before he knew it, the fairies were all over Robert’s body.
Robert glowed like fireflies.
“What is it? Why do you keep clinging to me? What is it?”
Robert, stuttering in bewilderment, was cute.
“Ugh. Are they licking me? It feels strange. Really, why are you doing this?”
Even in my previous life, the fairies especially liked me. But it wasn’t quite like this.
Guys pulling hair, probably to pull it out. Guys who get into their clothes and play around. And face licking guys
Countless fairies stuck to me and played pranks on me.
Irrel was happy to see me at a loss. Belus, who was watching the scene, waved his hand, and the wind spirit appeared and sent the fairies away.
“Hee hee hee”
Making a pitiful noise, the fairies rolled and rolled in the wind as they flew away.
In my previous life, they didn’t gather or lick in groups like this. When I put my hand to wipe the places where the fairies used to be, they were dry.
