I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years - I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years chapter 437

Side Story 1-an Old Story Told by a Grandmother (11)

Everyday life is routine because it flows peacefully.

The two people’s daily lives regained peace.

The forest regained peace as if the rebels’ invasion had never occurred, and the two spent each day feeling a little more awkward than before.

Every day, I dig up medicinal herbs, trim them, go to the city to sell the medicinal herbs, return, eat, and sleep.

Teddy did not easily recover her relationship with Maria, who had become distant again.

She was an old woman who had never dated a woman, and looking at Maria’s expression, she couldn’t muster up the courage to speak out.

‘Still, I guess we should talk about it at least once… ‘

Teddy’s insides were slowly burning because it felt easier to fight the enemy.

“I’d rather be courageous… “

Knights are always at the forefront.

Wouldn’t it be better to charge forward courageously rather than panic? Teddy turned over on her bed, her tell-tale anguish showing on her face.

‘Does Miss Maria hate me?’

A question suddenly occurred to me.

If she had asked him, she would have easily gotten an answer, but Teddy couldn’t bring himself to do so, so he tossed her body even more and messed with her hair.

“Hobbes should not have made fun of someone when they were in unrequited love…”

Teddy buried her face in her pillow with a face filled with self-destruction, recalling the past where she had teased her and told her that she wouldn’t be able to do that.

Without even noticing that Maria was watching.

‘Foolish person.’

It was a thought she had while looking at Teddy, but also a thought she had towards herself.

Maria looked at Teddy and lowered her head when Tom, who was in her arms, pressed his chest and called to her.

“…What’s going on?”

Tom noticed that Maria looked at him, waved her arms a few times, then pointed to her teddy with her arms and pretended to hug her. Maria blushed in surprise at Tom’s her body her language her her.

“…It’s not like that.”

Tom shrugged his shoulders as if he knew everything.

Maria tried to hit Tom, but she realized that there was no point in hitting him, so she sighed and turned around.

The time is already deep, deep night.

She planned to get a good night’s sleep like always.

…If an uninvited guest had not come.

An alarm bell rings in the mansion.

A boundary magic that her mother installed a long time ago. Maria was started by the sound and went into her room.

“Definitely here…”

While rummaging through items piled up in a corner of her room her her her, which was originally her mother’s room her her her, she picked up a translucent crystal ball.

The crystal ball linked to the boundary magic flashed red, signaling the presence of an intruder.

“Intruder… Who on earth…”

“Miss Maria!”

“It’s an intruder!”

“An intruder, no way…”

A loud explosion rang out, as if erasing the conversation between the two. Maria was able to sense that someone had fired magic into this mansion from the strong scent of her magical power.

“Could it be that the rebels… !”

“Miss Maria, you must avoid it! There will be more than one or two enemies! Come on… “

It was then.

The mansion was brightly colored with a deafening boom.

Teddy, who reflexively hugged Maria, felt her skin heating up in the heat and examined Maria’s condition as her light she disappeared.

“Are you okay?”

“…It’s okay.”

Maria answered with her awkward face in Teddy’s arms, and then stood up with Teddy’s support.

“The house…”

“What on earth is going on…”

Before the explosion occurred, Teddy pulled out the sword he had hastily prepared and guarded his surroundings. Because the culprit who blew up the mansion will come soon.

As they expected, a familiar face appeared in the darkness.

“…Count Vitray.”

“Oh! Do you know me? Ah, now that I see it, I see it was a kid from the damn kingdom army?”

Count Vitray grinned and looked at Teddy and Maria in turn.

‘A man and a woman live in a remote place like this. ‘They are suspicious.’

The location we arrived at by tracking it based on the cotton that came out of the doll.

Count Vitray sensed that they were the culprits of the camp attack and ordered them to pour magic into the mansion. Since he was the one who destroyed the camp by treating the doll in a bizarre way, I thought that there might be some kind of trap set up in the mansion.

And, his prediction came true, and the magic was blocked in the barrier.

Because it was a fairly strong barrier, the wizards were only able to destroy it after concentrating all their magical power and pouring in a level 1 spell.

‘We have to deal with those damn wolves before they come.’

An opponent that must be dealt with as he has inflicted significant damage with his strange abilities. If you hit and run quickly, you could retreat with minimal damage.

“How can I get here…”

“Isn’t that obvious? “I have been following the traces you guys left behind.”

‘There’s no chance of winning… ‘

He was said to be talented in his own way, but even so, he could not compete with Count Vitray, who had already made a name for himself in the kingdom for decades.

He said to Maria, feeling his hands her her getting wet.

“Maria. Run away.”

“Then you…”

“…It is a knight’s duty to protect the lady. “I will buy you some time, so run away.”

There is no chance of winning.

But if he runs away because he says he has no chance of winning, can he be called a knight?

“…I don’t like it.”

“Miss Maria!”

“…This is my house. And…This is the house my mother built.”

The house where she was born and raised. She had a strong attachment to this house. So much so that she can’t make her choice to leave.

And…

‘It cannot be protected forever.’

If you can’t protect yourself, you can’t protect anything.

Maria looked at her Tom in her arms.

“Tom. Please.”

Tom nodded his head vigorously at her words.

Once her loyal dog

Now, as her friend and regret.

Tom escaped from her embrace, jumped to the floor, and began to grow huge.

“As expected.”

From noble mtl dot net

Count Vitray smiled fiercely and adjusted his grip on his sword.

“…Whoever you are, don’t even think about returning home after making my home like this.”

“The little boy was a mouthful.”

“…I need to get spanked by that kid a few times before I’ll come to my senses.”

Haha! That sounds very interesting! Then… Let’s give it a try!”

In the dark ruins, Count Vitray kicked the ground.
