Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With - Chapter 311
311. 10 Years Later (14)
The tiger, the royal flag of Bakal, flutters powerfully.
At the same time, the golden lion flag, the symbol of the empire, also roared loudly.
A carriage carrying the two countries’ most powerful men raced along the road.
The roads had been so well paved by then that it took only three days to travel from Bakal to the Empire.
Thanks to this, we were able to reach the Empire in an instant.
“I’ll go and do some maintenance for a moment!!”
The carriage stopped at the shout of the head of the diplomatic escort.
Thanks to that, Tina, my son Beck, and I got a breath of fresh air after getting off the carriage.
“Beck, weren’t you tired from running for three days?”
At my question, blue eyes sparkled in the black hair.
“No, while I was riding in the carriage, all I could think about was the Empire.”
Fortunately, my son was very energetic.
A guy who recently became a Sword Expert and started to devote himself more to swordsmanship.
It seems he wants to get to the capital quickly and show off his skills to Ian and Leo.
‘It’ll still be hard to beat these two.’
Still, there is no need to dampen your son’s energy in advance.
Thinking so, he looked happily at Beck swinging his wooden sword near the carriage.
“Now that I think about it, this place somehow feels familiar.”
Tina, who heard my monologue, quietly came closer to me.
The princess answered the question while looking at the green meadow together.
“Don’t you remember? This is the place.”
Christina tapped my cheek lightly with her finger.
“The place where we were attacked by werewolves.”
“Ah… Was it around this time?”
As I clapped my hands, Beck came over with a face as bright as a fox cub.
“What?”
“Hehehe… Your dad saved me from here.”
Save Mom.
Beck took a keen interest in the heroic tale.
“Oh, is this the place my mom always talks about?!”
“Yeah? That’s true, but was it always like that?”
I glanced at Tina.
Then, she quickly turned her flushed face away.
“Yes, Mom told me several times that she had a crush on Dad back then… .”
“Beck, aren’t you hungry? Want a snack?”
The princess of the North covered her son’s mouth in an unusually hasty manner.
Then I chuckled and teased Tina.
“Well, I was kind of cool back then-.”
I took the initiative for the first time in a while, recalling the memories of that day.
However, the hot memories with Leah, not Tina, suddenly come to mind.
When I paused for a moment, my perceptive wife opened her eyes slightly.
“Honey, what are you thinking?”
“Ah, no…!! I got goosebumps thinking about how brutal it was when we confronted the werewolves back then.”
Tina, with her voluptuous body like a wild bear, stood alone with her arms folded.
He secretly took a sip of his drink, as if he wanted to tease me in the carriage.
“By the way, it’s definitely become more peaceful here. It used to smell like blood.”
“That’s right. Besides, I heard that werewolves are friendly with humans these days. They even say hello when they meet.”
It’s a good thing.
Werewolves also have enormous individual strength, so if they confront each other, it would be a great loss to both sides.
It seems that the alliance formed when meeting with the leaders a few years ago was of great help.
Thinking like that, I looked out at the meadow with a happy face.
As I was looking at the horizon, I suddenly caught sight of a fluffy silhouette in the distance.
“hmm…?”
“Your Majesty, a figure has been spotted about 500 paces away!”
The head of the diplomatic corps took off the uniform hat he was wearing and reported to me.
So I said I would go ahead and check it out for myself and headed towards the meadow.
“I’ll check. Everyone, wait there.”
“Yes, I understand!!”
Since I am the most powerful force in the empire anyway, there is no need to bother protecting me.
Instead, the knights silently watched my back while escorting Tina and Beck.
“Who is there?”
I asked the silhouette in the distance with an aura in my voice.
OK….
“Oh, it’s been so long I forgot.”
A heavy and solemn voice was heard from afar.
“I couldn’t forget you, you know.”
The sound of footsteps approaching.
But, I knew instinctively.
That the person approaching is not a human being.
“The leader of the werewolves…?”
“There’s a perfectly fine name called Dashvik.”
A fluffy silver mane.
A tall man, nearly 2 meters tall, wearing a suit appeared.
“Oh my god… You learned polymorphism too?”
“I’ve been interacting with human merchants on a regular basis lately. They always seem to be so surprised that they faint whenever they see me in my true form.”
It wasn’t a perfect human appearance.
However, he transformed into a body shape almost identical to mine and gave me a kind smile.
“Long time no see, Veil Mikhail.”
“That’s right.”
Now I was walking across the plains alongside the 110-year-old werewolf leader.
He said, looking at my diplomatic corps in the distance.
“Are you on your way back from Bakal?”
“Yes, I am stopping by the empire with my wife and son.”
Wife and son.
At those words, Dashvik’s red eyes blinked.
“Really…? I thought you were the blonde woman I was having a secret meeting with.”
“Ahem… I married both of them.”
Wolves naturally keep only one companion.
Dashvik let out a snicker at the sight of me having multiple wives.
“The world can’t leave a talented person like you alone. I understand.”
“What brings you here?”
In response to my question, the werewolf stroked his bushy chin.
“I’m thinking of stopping by the Imperial Border Town for the first time in a while. My daughter wants me to buy some perfume.”
Do werewolves spray perfume too?
I looked dumbfounded for a moment, then nodded.
“Then, let’s go together. We’ll give you a ride.”
“Would that be okay? I don’t know if the people from the border villages would understand, but the Bakal people would be scared.”
Could it be because I once tore the elders of the kingdom apart?
Dashvik asked back with a somewhat apologetic expression.
Over the past 10 years, it seems that his mind has become more corrupted than expected.
“It’s okay. That guy did something that deserved death back then.”
“Thank you for saying so, Mikhail.”
We entered the diplomatic corps together.
Then, the knights of the empire and the warriors of Bakal greeted Dashvik with tense expressions for a moment.
However, as soon as he saw my signal that it was okay, he became polite.
“Don’t worry. He’s my friend. He’s the leader of the werewolf clan, so treat him with respect.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!!”
Bakal’s warriors also stood up and paid their respects.
The werewolf, who was suddenly saluted by the best soldiers of both countries, looked awkward for a moment, but soon accepted their greetings.
“Would you like to ride together?”
“Is that okay…?”
I waved my hand and said I was fine.
I opened the carriage door, chuckling inwardly at the thought of showing Beck this fluffy old man.
That moment.
“Father, who is it outside…? Ah…!!”
My son, who had just turned 10, froze when he saw the huge being before his eyes.
Same goes for Christina.
Her sensuous blue eyes widened like a startled snowy bear.
“What, werewolf…?”
“It’s been a while, princess. You look more beautiful than before.”
Dashvik, who was so large that he ended up occupying one side of the seat.
Thanks to that, our family of three ended up sitting huddled together on one sheet.
Tina clung tightly to me, perhaps because of her memories of that time.
However, Beck was different.
His heart raced at the sight of the giant legendary wolf he had never seen before.
“A huge wolf… … !!”
Dashvik smiled faintly at the sight of the black-haired boy.
Beck swallowed deeply, mesmerized by his red eyes.
“I can see that you are not afraid of me, so you must be my son. Even your sly eyes are just like mine.”
“That’s right. It’s our third child.”
The werewolf was puzzled by the word third.
“Third…? How many children do you have…?”
“Ah… . We’re just twelve now.”
Dashvik laughed heartily, as if he was full of energy.
The carriage shook slightly at his cries.
From noble mtl dot come
“It seems that the medicine I gave was especially effective on humans… .”
“It wasn’t a joke back then.”
I waved my hand, saying, “Don’t talk nonsense.”
Because of that drug, all the wives got pregnant from the first day.
“It looks like that child is only possessed by the burning passion of two people… .”
The werewolf’s red eyes pierced Beck.
A divine being who has lived for over 100 years has extraordinary powers of penetration that humans cannot see.
“You are born with great talent. You take after your father.”
“Me, really…?”
Beck stared blankly at the wolf in the suit and asked back.
“Of course, so don’t disappoint your parents and just focus on your passion to protect everyone.”
Apparently he met her again after ten years.
However, as I knew about Beck, I immediately sensed the guy’s sense of duty.
“Okay, I’ll do my best and become a great knight like my father!”
son.
Is it because of that nostalgic name?
“Yes… I will bless you so that it will definitely happen.”
Dashvik placed his hand gently on Beck’s forehead with a serious look in his eyes.
After that, he closed his eyes and said a prayer of blessing in the werewolf’s own language.
“… .”
Christina silently watched the wolf’s blessing.
She stared blankly at Dashvik, who had changed completely since the time he had ordered the elders to be torn to pieces.
Then, after he finished praying, I held his soft hand.
“Thank you, Dashvik.”
“Thank you for freeing me from the desire for revenge that seemed like it would last forever.”
I watched the two of them with a pleased expression.
Then, the moment you exhale deeply with a relaxed mind.
“I can see the border, Your Majesty-!!”
Leon’s border has arrived before we knew it.
Below the hill, a sturdy wall and a magnificent city appeared.
“Should we go back now?”
I opened the window and looked out at my homeland.
My black eyes sparkled through my fluttering black hair.
――――――.
As we entered the empire, the wheels rolled more powerfully along the royal roads.
Thanks to this, we were able to enter the capital in a short period of time.
“Beck, open the window.”
“yes…!!”
The black-haired boy opened the window on the other side, his haggard eyes flashing.
What unfolded before his eyes was.
Because it was a high heavenly palace where the emperor who had conquered the continent resided.
“Wow… … !!”
A guy who always met me at Northon and spent quiet time with me whenever I came to the Empire to see him.
However, he seemed quite surprised when he visited the capital city this time.
“Is this the capital of the empire? Human civilization has truly developed a lot.”
Dashvik also nodded at the sight of the capital city he was seeing for the first time in his life.
Even to his eyes, which had been 110 years old, the sight of the developed empire was truly amazing.
“As soon as we arrive, we will first meet His Majesty, Beck.”
“This is my first time meeting that great-grandfather…!! I’m so scared.”
Christina also had a worried look on her face as she was not very close to the Emperor.
He waved his hand dismissively, saying it was okay.
“It’s okay, it’s just on the outside. You’re very gentle on the inside.”
The carriage stopped in front of one of the palace’s gardens.
Then, I got off first and spoke to Dashvik.
“Please rest in my annex, I will introduce you to my family later.”
“Huh… I came here to buy some perfume, but somehow I ended up in the palace.”
The werewolf leader looked around with a grin.
“If you’re talking about perfume, there are many good quality items in our capital area. We’ll make sure to pack plenty for you when you return.”
“I like it, but I wonder if it’s okay… .”
Dashvik glanced at the splendid palace pillars and asked.
It seems that in the past, people were more wary of his presence.
“It’s okay. Actually… my wives also said that they would like to meet you if given the chance.”
“me…?”
Dashvik blinked his characteristically bright wolf eyes.
At this, I also tilted my head and answered.
“I don’t know either. However, Irina said there was something she really wanted to ask me when we met.”
At the time, I didn’t know she was interested in werewolves… .
This is a story I brought up because I remembered the request I made with a red face, asking to meet her.
“Okay… Then, wait at the annex.”
He asked the servants waiting in front of the garden to guide him to the annex.
Even the highly trained maids flinched for a moment at the sight of a werewolf they had never seen before, but they quickly regained their composure and accompanied him.
“Well then, shall we go see Grandpa too?”
Only then did I walk down the halls of the palace, hand in hand with Beck.
Tina leisurely followed along, watching the two rich men who looked exactly alike.
――――――.
The situation’s office was in its old location.
When I knocked on the huge stone door, it began to open on its own as if it had been waiting.
“Your Majesty, this is Veil Mikhail…!!”
He shouted cautiously toward the open office.
However, no answer came back.
“I came to say hello to you again!!”
I slowly entered the spacious office with my son.
Then, heavy breathing was heard from the balcony.
“Hooo… . Hooo… .”
A white shirt draped over a chair in the office.
Beyond that, the bulging muscles caught my eye.
“Who came… …?”
A grand aura that is still strong after 10 years.
Beck was overwhelmed by its overwhelming majesty, even more so than when he had met the werewolf.
Leonhardt holding a huge dumbbell on the balcony.
He looked back at me with his characteristically creepy gaze.
“The insolent thief is back… … ?”
My father-in-law still calls me a thief even after all these years.
As he put the dumbbells down on the floor, there was a loud noise like an earthquake.
“Eek…!!”
