2nd Rank Has Returned - 2nd Rank Has Returned chapter 276
276 – New Training-3
[Are you calm?]
“…I can’t do it.”
Leo had a shadow on her face as if she had lost everything in this world, and Aria had a shadow on her face as if she was seriously ill..
Thanks to their lovely daughter’s proud congratulations on their death, the two of them glowed white for a moment, but soon their faces turned ashen.
Now, with what expression should I return to the mansion?
“…Sorry…Sorry. “I see you two are in trouble because of my useless tactics.”
For Ain, who had become quite sensitive, this funny yet sad situation was just a pity.
“…Oh…No. Are you okay. “It was my fault for overlooking the growth in training again.”
Black and White Aria grew thanks to the effects of her magic and had to properly reflect and learn from the embarrassment they faced when they fought each other.
Even so, during the time of Aria, the growth of Ain, who was training in Yonginhwa, was fully calculated and he was able to perform a courageous act.
Leo’s shame doubled at the thought that he had forgotten such details in his lust and immediately hugged Aria.
‘…But how can I tolerate that…’
Until now, he had suppressed himself by seeing Aria as her rival and a young comrade who needed to be guided.
He was ugly old and dirty, and he thought that treating Aria as her woman was her greatest deception and hypocrisy, so he tried to restrain himself as much as possible.
However, it was impossible for a man to exist who was both neat and lustful, active and yet not succumbed to clumsy temptation.
Imagine that the greatest warrior in the world, strong enough to stand on top of the world, sticks out his well-swollen breasts and shakes Daedungun, who has been prepared for easy childbirth.
Wouldn’t it be ruder to endure it now?
‘…I did it in the kindest way I could…But it still felt so good that it blew my mind.’
In order to preserve the image of a polite and decent returnee colleague he had built up until now, Leo had decided from the time they slept together in the Magic Tower to embrace Aria in the most moderate way possible.
However, that day, when he was half asleep, he felt her mouth half f*cking him and realized that Aria’s s*xual desire was greater than he thought.
I thought it would be okay to do it a little more roughly, so I didn’t hug him too roughly, but in reality, Leo was trying to control his pleasure as much as possible.
Thanks to that fact, I was able to be free from the guilt of holding Aria.
“…So…Do your family know about this?”
“Yes, I thought it was an unfortunate event and let you know… I am truly sorry…”
Now that freedom has fallen forever into the abyss of guilt.
The reason why he did not commit suicide right away was that he did not lack divine power.
[First of all, think about the shameful death later and get ready to go. I have to go see the Great Emperor’s statue this time.]
“…Why do you die in shame later?”
“Yes, that’s right! “You’re old enough to do it!”
As the wise man scoffed next to him, Leo and Aria agreed to take a bold approach.
The two have already been recognized by the Reinhardt family and are officially engaged.
There was no scandal caused by sleeping in the same bed.
[I never said I did anything wrong?]
The wise man had had enough of just eating the noodles and then walked away with his old snout sticking out.
If you think about it, the fact that there was no problem with the ‘content of the words’ made these two even more angry.
[Okay, pack your bags, go to the mansion, and congratulate yourself on announcing the big news you’ve packed… hehehehe…!]
Just as the stern face of the old man was about to end the unreasonable s*xual harassment, a poor girl’s iron fist, unable to overcome her shame, blew off the old man’s face.
“…Ah…Ain-ah!?”
With a slightly red face, Ain looked at her parents who appeared to be missing sages.
I felt guilty and ashamed towards my parents due to the unusual impulsive violence. Leo and Aria are in that regime.
“I’m sorry. It seems like you’ve been having a hard time controlling your emotional impulses lately. It is believed to be a phenomenon similar to puberty. “I apologize to both of you, including the wise man.”
Although they hastily offered logical explanations and constructive apologies, Leo and Aria’s shocked expressions still did not go away.
Looking at her parents’ eyes like that, Ain felt like she was going to cry at the thought of what she had done wrong.
I couldn’t even think of how to apologize, at least out of shame.
“No, good job…!”
“You don’t have to apologize for that.”
Contrary to expectations, the two-armed Buddha was busy stroking and praising the filial daughter for exorcising the old evil spirit.
The favoritism was partly due to the fact that the sage’s flirtation went too far, but more than that, it also played a role in the fact that Ain was overly cute to her two daughters, Babo.
Black Aria, this was something that other mothers also acknowledged.

“…Isn’t it better to stay a little longer?”
As we got ready to leave right away without even packing anything, Dean came out to see Leo off with a rather disappointed look.
In fact, most of the time I spent in my hometown was spent on hard training, and there was no rest other than eating, washing up, and washing up, so I couldn’t help but be worried.
“I’m sorry, but I’m so busy.”
“…Wow… I can’t imagine the scale.”
Some of the villagers next to Leo also gasped at the weight of the word imperial.
At this level, it was not just like a dragon appeared in a stream, but a spirit was created in a stream.
“Then go. “We’ll wait here.”
“…You mean waiting.”
Leo could not force him to flee due to the strong determination of Anus, who was the only one who was not surprised.
Looking back, she was an old woman who was more stubborn and strong-willed than herself, having lived for over 90 years.
“Okay, I guess I’ll have to wait until you bring the ‘good news.’”
I think the difference is that I have changed to the point where I can smile and say good words.
It was her ironic grandmother.
She even made a request that bordered on coercion to evacuate, but when she insisted that she would not go, I felt reassured.
Even though he was this old, he felt the shame of adolescence because it felt like his inner thoughts that he didn’t know about were revealed.

“…Nenet! “I will try my best to do that!!”
Aria also tried to live up to Anus’ expectations with a voice filled with determination.
Of course, it seemed like the expectations were in addition to what Leo expected, but the speed of response in personal relationships (love) was a secret that Leo, who was below a rock, could not possibly know.
‘…But…’
While Anus was showing Ain a smile that was rarely seen even by Leo, Ariasviel’s expression became quite stiff.
Black Aria, who was the first to notice White Aria’s feelings, lashed out at her and pinched her insides.
‘…Don’t give orders. ‘Are you sure this action is right?’
I felt a strange sense of discomfort.
Although she seemed to be mocking Aria herself, she also had a sense of understanding of her pain towards Leo.
It was a sensation that the thought was conveyed through her heart, not her head.
‘…Still…’
Is it really right to deceive by saying it is for the sake of others?
In the act of hiding the truth, there is no guarantee that both you and others will be happy, but you are just stagnating.
“…Okay, make sure to do it in the safest way possible.”
“I understand. “If you say that, other villagers are worried too.”
“Okay. Now…”
And in the midst of her question and answer just now, Aria made an unconscious decision.
“Wait a minute. “I have something I would like to share with my out-of-law grandmother. Can you give me a moment?”
‘…I know.’
This conversation request was a hypocrisy born out of selfishness to relieve oneself of guilt.
It was a false line, so it was awkward and insufficient to mark.
It was unclear whether this would result in a positive retirement age.
Perhaps, as Black Aria feared, the result could have been worse.
“…Okay. I get it.”
But I could think that she would at least give me a good, if not a right, good to decide.

“…Looking at the same expression as last time, I have a rough idea of what you want to talk about.”
Anus, who briefly returned to Leo’s house, smiled and guessed Aria’s thoughts.
Anus couldn’t help but smile bitterly at the scent of Leo’s many deep relationships and the scent of those relationships that remained here.
“…There is a secret I could not tell to my grandmother-in-law Anus.”
<…I can’t stop you any longer. Take responsibility for your choices. It’s really frustrating because we’re all the same.>
When White Aria revealed her secret, Black Aria only grunted and did not stop her any further.
Because I knew that this situation was no different from her own.
Black Aria’s self-loathing reached its peak and she even despised herself.
“…I see. “Did that happen in the meantime?”
After hearing Aria Baek’s explanation, Anus soon wiped her wrinkled cheek and let out a small sigh.
He agreed as expected, but on the other hand, he seemed disappointed.
“…Do you believe me? “It must be a very difficult story…”
Even though she only explained for about 10 minutes, Aria couldn’t help but be slightly surprised by Anus’ trusting attitude.
Even they themselves couldn’t quickly understand the idea of regression without a sword.
“Don’t ignore him just because he’s a rural village chief. Even so, he is an old man who has written a thesis at the Magic Tower.”
“Yeah, I see. “It’s not that I ignored it, but…”
“There is no need to add. “Because this is what Leo already said the day he came.”
Ariasviel felt as if he wanted to go into a rat hole at Anus’s calm command.
Black Aria was also experiencing those emotions keenly within her holy sword.
“…I’m sorry.”
“Yes, it was wrong. “Because I was disappointed.”
Saying so, Anus hit Arya on the head with a stick.
A rather dull sound.
She wasn’t as sick as an unmanned person, and wasn’t hurt, but there was enough force in her heart to cause a wound.
“You say it so early.”
“You were wrong.”
Even though he struck her on the top of her head, Aria continued her apology without even raising her head.
It’s no one else’s fault, it’s Reinhardt’s.
And because she was a sin inherent to Arya herself, she had to receive her punishment as well.
“I just need to know. Then she should raise her head and stop apologizing. “It’s burdensome to receive an apology like this from her daughter-in-law.”
“…Yes?”
When words like words of blessing were said again, Ariasviel was taken aback and asked back in a dumb voice.
The warrior named Aria was sure that this was not a sin that could be easily forgiven. An old woman named Anus offered forgiveness in its mildest form.
“One hit with the cane and that’s it. “She’s not exactly 20, so I think this is the only time.”
“…Well…But this is enough punishment…”
“Leo himself has forgiven and accepted this, so isn’t it funny that I’m getting upset about it? “She is an old woman who has not been able to properly raise her only grandchild.”
Leaving behind her sorry Aria, Anus headed to her bookshelf, clicking her tongue in self-deprecation.
“It was…Chief Anus who raised Leo…”
“That kind of grandmother watched her 10-year-old grandson, who was fine, become a mercenary. “You could have brought her as many times as you wanted, but you neglected her.”
Along with his self-mocking remarks, what Anus left out was an old album. This was the photo album that Leo used as evidence to show that his mother was a monster.
“Take a look. “I don’t know if it’s a photo that suits your taste.”
“…Ah…Yes.”
If it had been any other time, I would have kissed the picture of young Leo in the photo album.
In this atmosphere, such indecent behavior could not be shown.
Every time I flipped through the photo album, I saw several village people playing with little Leo.
Elderly people from various villages, including Ren, Anus, Din, and Physis, were photographed together in various compositions.
“…It was taken well.”
“Yes, in that good photo, all the old people except the people you know are dead.”
“Yes!?”
<…>
High and heavy astonishment coexisted between the two Aryas.
The old man calmly announced that he was dead and calmly pointed his staff towards the destination of death.
“This grandmother and her grandfather are all buried in those graves. “Even if we count less, it’s more than 5 people.”
Five people were certainly not a large number on the battlefield, but they were by no means a small number in daily life.
“…Then…Are you close…”
“You are not the only one who lied. “Because I was fooling you and myself.”
Anus had already noticed that Ren was not the only reason Leo left the village.
I just didn’t want to admit it.
“Leo can’t help but be insensitive.”
From a young age, I saw close friends dying one after another due to accidental death, aging, and illness.
No one would want to remain in such a run-down town.
“If you want to be punished, even if you don’t deserve it, let this old man give you the heaviest punishment.”
“…Anus… Grandmother…”
Soon, Anus places the heaviest shackles on Arya.
Same as the first time.
“Make Leo happy no matter what. Do whatever it takes to make that bastard happy. “I really…Please.”
Even the answer is the same.
“”
Anus laughed.
Black Aria returns to her hometown to see Leo and is unable to meet him.
Like when I realized that her plan had gone awry and apologized for my mistake.
She kindly forgave and punished.
<’…You will be able to protect it as long as you go to the Holy Sword’s morgue.’>
The time when the hero named Ariaspil can be erased from history.
Black Aria waited in the dark for her promise.
