I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess - I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess chapter 93

93 – Tracking (2)

There are many ways for humans to become strong.

The most representative are the four martial arts represented by the sword, magic, divinity, and supernatural ability.

The names of shamans and spiritists in remote corners of the continent were passed down, but their numbers were too small to be mentioned.

Probably because it was only mentioned in the original work but not used properly, it was probably reflected so as not to have much of an impact.

In the case of inspection, there were two walls that were treated as a kind of limit.

The first level is to strengthen the body through mana. And it was the second time that he reached the level of a sword master who could handle sword skills.

Relatively speaking, the first wall is a blurry boundary, but in the case of Sword Master, there was a clear turning point.

And the empire classifies master-level strongmen based on sword masters.

As each of those powerful people can influence the nation’s power, each of their actions became a hot topic.

Sirien said, resting her chin.

“Wherever you go in the capital these days, there is only talk of Lord Revan.”

The streets of Ethelmarion are now quite familiar.

We finished our work at the pantheon and were waiting to join Isha at the promised store.

When you spend time on the streets like this, you hear many stories.

Recently, Ethelmarion’s gossip was pouring out stories about Lord Revan.

“You’re the Miracle Sword Master. Doesn’t it seem special to people? “It’s said that the black and white light is flashing like that.”

“I don’t know what I heard. “If it’s white, isn’t it the same for Asirel’s paladins?”

“Well, I haven’t seen it in person either. How can I know that you are locked in a place where you say you will devote yourself to training? “I guess that’s what the rumors say.”

Levan Hintz. A knight who became a sword master through a ‘miracle’ earlier than me.

I heard that his outstanding appearance and brilliant sword skills were very impressive.

A sword that shines so brightly despite not being a Holy Knight.

If you become a sword master by a miracle, the emotions and values you had at the time of awakening to the sword energy are bound to melt into it, but it was not clear what kind of emotion the ‘light’ was.

Is it possible to have noble beliefs? You wouldn’t know it unless you saw it in person.

The white wine in the glass gurgled into Sirien’s mouth.

One glass of wine a day. It was a drink that Sirien obtained after a long period of negotiation and arguing.

Since I promised, it would be better for me to take care of that as well.

“How about Rajen, not other people? “Do you think he’s as great of a person as the rumors say?”

“Well. At least it’s true that he’s a handsome guy. “I think the rest are just unnecessary prejudices.”

“Appearance is not something you can trust. “Most people in the world have rotten aesthetics.”

Isn’t that the most wrong prejudice?

When viewed objectively, Sirien’s tastes were somewhat twisted…… No.

This was agreed upon last time. Sirien is the authority on her looks, so we’ll have to assume she’s right.

Sirien said I was handsome, so she was right.

Anyway, regardless of other things, it seemed difficult to take off the label of Banpoon as a sword master.

I heard that Lord Revan did not have the skills to kneel as a sword master, but compared to those who took the standard route, it seemed to be the accepted opinion that he was inferior.

Were you quite upset about that fact?

Lord Revan was the only ‘inactive Swordmaster’ in the Empire.

All of the Empire’s sword masters took up one position at a time and were stationed at the border or danger zone, but Lord Revan was the only one who was concentrating on training in his territory.

This gossip did not say that such a gentleman had started any special activity or had completed training.

Lord Revan really did nothing. Since nothing in particular has caused any problems, wouldn’t he be swinging a sword somewhere by now?

Still, why is the story of Sir Revan circulating in the capital? … I didn’t know that either.

Well, it seems that the daughter of a noble family happened to see her somewhere.

Ethelmarion’s gossip was all like this.

The issue is something that gets really excited about a random topic and then quickly cools down.

There was nothing more tiring than chasing after each and every story that spread around the capital.

“But you read that book really hard. “Is it that much fun?”

“I originally read the book diligently.”

“Considering something like that, you didn’t take your eyes off me.”

“My passion for learning just increased.”

When I turned my attention to the book, Sirien closed the book.

Strangely, the way she looked at me stung, and Sirien’s face seemed redder than usual.

Is it because you drank wine? I guess it’s not that strong of a drink.

Red, pretty eyes look at every corner of me. The beautiful voice mumbled and cleared its throat.

“I’m screwed. Rajen brought up the book for no reason, so I can’t concentrate anymore.”

“Can’t we just unfold it again and look at it?”

“Once I close a book, I don’t open it again until I feel like it.”

“Well, it’s boring, but if I take a look…… “

“Well, that’s not possible!”

Sirien took her closed book into her own arms and hugged it.

It was my first time seeing her react like that, so I just stared at her blankly as Sirien flailed her arms and poured out her words.

“Uh, so…… I will organize this later and let you know. It’s fun for me to tell you about the books I’ve read, and I also get to study again by organizing the contents. But it’s meaningless if you read this now!”

“Uh, uhh. Okay.”

“Hmm, so I will study this book hard and tell you about it later. “I’m looking forward to it.”

The saintess’s mouth seemed to be smiling, but for some reason, she felt that she shouldn’t point out the reason.

Would you say it is nothing more than insight but a sixth sense? It was like an alarm ringing somewhere in my instincts.

I’ve never had any good results from ignoring this intuition, so I decided to follow it this time too.

“Oh, isn’t that Isha?”

“We finally arrived. Come on.”

* * *

After Count Eschik’s funeral, Isha followed in Baron Iklan’s footsteps.

From Noble mtl dot com

Baron Iklan was a typical spineless person in a bad way.

A person who is accustomed to using his body rather than his head, and is honest about his desires and has no qualms about luxury and pleasure.

However, he was not good at trusting others. When something important comes up, he is the type of person who needs to handle it on his own.

“Thanks to you, the job was easy. There are limits to what I can do on my own, but it becomes easier when the Baron himself takes care of it.”

It seemed like digging into Baron Iklan was the right answer.

Come to think of it, when he saw the Marquis of Eloran in the County of Eschik, he did not pretend to know the Baron.

It means that it is difficult to show off intimacy.

.

As expected, there were quite a few suspicious things among Baron Iklan’s actions.

“The Baron gave an unusual instruction. He asked me to buy clothes and toys for a child to wear. “There were even snacks.”

“Did Baron Iklan have any children?”

“I have two illegitimate children. This is what my dad told me, so I’m sure it’s for sure. But the Baron doesn’t treat either of them as children, so that’s not it.”

Things almost took a turn for the worse.

It is public knowledge that the s*x lives of nobles are promiscuous. If what Baron Iklan wanted to hide was somewhat embarrassing, he didn’t really want to know.

Finding out about dirty things will only make you feel bad.

“From what I could see, it was a boy’s clothes. About ten years old? It looked a little smaller than my clothes. “For snacks, I only bought sweet things that children would like.”

“That’s prejudice. “Because sweetness is a taste loved by everyone, regardless of gender or age.”

“Yes?”

Me and Isha stared at Sirien.

Sirien proudly spread her shoulders as if wondering what was the problem, but she was quickly taken over and lowered her head.

“It’s nothing… …. “Keep talking.”

“How was the gift? “There’s a difference between buying a variety of things and buying a lot of things you like.”

“Ah, I see! You can guess the relationship just from that. “I didn’t know what people would like, so I felt like I just put everything down.”

Isha nodded her head.

“When I think about it, it wasn’t even an insincere attitude to buy a gift. “You had to worry all day when choosing a gift for the saint on the last festival day.”

“Huh? “Did Rajen do that?”

“Yes. He went around all the stalls and thought about each one. I know because I was called that day and helped. “The scarf you used often was bought that day.”

“Ahehehe. Okay? “I see you put that much thought into it.”

Sirien smiles brightly. It wasn’t such a bad thing, but I was embarrassed for no reason.

I felt him looking at me with a subtle look.

If you make eye contact now, you will definitely be made fun of. I desperately avoided Sirien’s gaze.

The scarf I bought had become Sirien’s favorite item.

However, he did not wear it all the time, but he said he kept it safe in case something dangerous happened.

I don’t want it to get damaged.

In fact, it was treated as more precious than the religious rites of the religious order.

Would it be blasphemy to say that the authority of Hybras has fallen to the ground?

“As soon as Baron Iklan was ready, he went to the northern mountains. There weren’t many attendants, but what was surprising was that there wasn’t even a driver accompanying us. “Aren’t the northern mountains a pretty dangerous place these days?”

“I guess it means there is a part of me that believes. “You are confident in your skills.”

“If he was that great, he would have made a name for himself long ago. “Right now, humans are probably more scary than demonic beasts.”

If Nezra is controlling the demonic beast, Baron Iklan will not be affected by the demonic beast.

As the anxiety became more and more evident, Isha brought good food.

“Actually, I wanted to pursue it to the end…… I gave up because I thought it was too dangerous. “If there really was a demon, he would be much stronger than me, but I didn’t have the confidence to give up.”

“Good job. Choosing when to step away is also a skill.”

“Thank you. Still, there is something I learned. I don’t think this is the first time Baron Iklan has bought a gift like this. “I think it moves regularly, about once a week.”
