I Was Summoned To Be Sold as a Son-in-Law - I Was Summoned To Be Sold as a Son-in-Law chapter 58

58 – Traveler from the South

Two days before Tom and his group arrived in Viln.

There was one traveler who arrived in Viln from a different direction than them.

The traveler arrived at the South Gate of Viln, waited in a long line of commoners for inspection, and then his turn came.

The traveler was wearing a cloak that covered his entire body with a hood covering his entire head, so his appearance was completely unrecognizable other than his height.

“Next. Um… Take off the hood so I can see your face.”

Among the commoners, many of the guards of Viln are children of wealthy families or three daughters from noble families.

As they perform the important mission of protecting the border area, their average status is actually higher than that of the Royal Guard, as it is a plus to their career.

As they are, their tone of voice was quite rude and overbearing.

The guard who gave the traveler a sharp command was also the third daughter of the author.

But the traveler paid no heed to that attitude and silently approached the guard.

“What, what? Stop!”

The guard warned the traveler who did not listen to his words and approached him arbitrarily.

At the same time, he tried to place his right hand on the handle of the sword tied to his left waist, but

She couldn’t hold the sword.

‘If I hold the sword, I will die.’

Guard felt that way.

The traveler did not feel a single shred of life, but her intuition was screaming so.

The person wearing this hood is not an ordinary person.

The guard froze, unable to do anything, with her right arm half-raised.

Meanwhile, the traveler approached the guard as close as she could reach with her arms, stopped, and slightly opened the chest area of the cloak surrounding her body so that only the guard could see it.

What was revealed was a large, hideously swollen chest.

But that wasn’t the important thing.

At first glance, the chest of the luxurious top had something that looked like a family emblem embroidered on it.

That emblem is the emblem of the highest-ranking family that anyone who is part of the kingdom’s aristocratic world cannot know.

“Get on, tile…”

The guard was about to say the family name without realizing it, but stopped when the hooded girl raised her index finger and put it to her mouth.

The guard who was checking was confident that he was quite perceptive.

‘This is clearly an unannounced inspection.’

The city guard, or guard, is also a member of the kingdom’s army.

Sometimes something like a surprise inspection comes from the higher-ups.

‘I never thought the commander-in-chief’s daughter would come in person…’

The guard now knew what he had to do.

“Passed.”

Just let the duke’s daughter pass without saying a word.

This was her best judgment.

I just drank a lot of kimchi soup.

—————————–

Betty passed through the south gate and sighed in relief.

‘Thank God…’

Of course, there are people in this village who are influenced by the family.

If he had been exposed on the spot, he might have been caught by them.

But it must have been quite difficult since he couldn’t fight those who had ties to his family.

The guard from earlier who let me through without saying anything seemed to be someone who had nothing to do with the family.

‘It’s really useful in times like this.’

I think of the Tyler family emblem hanging on my chest.

‘I don’t really like this kind of thing, but…’

Betty was quite reluctant to rely on her family’s status.

Is this an unconscious rebellion against a mother who is so outstanding?

Or is she just too nice?

‘By the way,’

Betty changed her thinking due to the scenery she saw while walking.

‘Amazing…’

“A piece of fur from the kingdom costs 2 gold!”

“1 Silver for 5 leeks from the Principality!”

I must have entered the market street without realizing it, and street vendors were lined up on both sides of the street.

The place was so crowded and noisy that Betty had never seen it before.

There was a lot of floating population, so sometimes you would bump into shoulders with passers-by.

It was a very refreshing sight for Betty, who had only seen the royal capital and the duchy for her entire life.

Let alone the duchy, even the royal capital did not have streets as common as this.

This is because the royal capital is a place where only the chosen, even commoners, can live.

Betty, who had been looking at the goods for a while, found among the street vendors a magic weapons shop that was at least somewhat indoors.

From weapons that are enchanted and emit auras of various colors, to armor and accessories.

Betty saw a subtle and luxurious dark-colored ring among them and picked it up as if fascinated.

‘I think it will suit me well…’

Her own Jung alone came to mind, Thomas Anderson.

‘I miss you…’

You could say it was love at first sight.

That kind of man showed himself favor.

Days like that for several months.

It’s short, but it seems like we’ve been through a lot with him so far.

‘Shall I be happy…?’

Betty approached the merchant holding the ring.

‘Don’t exceed 20 gold…’

All the assets she has now are 20 gold.

Roughly converted to won, it is about 2 million won.

From a commoner’s point of view, it was a very large amount of money for a person to have on a daily basis.

If you are a noble, the story is different.

Even more so if she is the duke’s daughter.

But even these 20 gold were the money she brought with her when she decided to run away from home this time.

But even if this ring was only 20 gold, I was still willing to buy it.

“You want to buy that? Just give me 5 silver.”

The female merchant, who appeared to be in her 30s, glanced at the ring and blurted out.

Betty was surprised by the price, which was much lower than expected, but she didn’t show it and handed over 1 gold.

After Betty received the change and left, the merchant chuckled.

“It was something I was reluctant to buy, but it turned out well. I was reluctant to throw it away.”

————————————-

Betty, who was exploring Viln further, found her inn as it started to get dark.

As she passed by, she saw a place called ‘Griffin’, but it looked like a place where nobles stayed.

Nowadays, it would be difficult to get noticed by the nobles, so I passed there.

‘Let’s go over there.’

Instead, I decided to go to a place called ‘Lion’ that was visible in front of me.

“Welcome~!”

As you enter the inn, the hostess greets you cheerfully at the counter.

It’s lower class than the Griffin Inn from before, but it’s still a pretty neat and large inn, so the living standards seem to be good.

Betty walked up to the counter and opened her mouth.

“Can we just stay one night and decide whether to extend tomorrow?”

“Okay, but could you please take off your hood?”

The innkeeper looked suspiciously at Betty, who was wearing a large hood.

Betty lifted her cloak slightly to the side so that only the innkeeper could be seen, just like she did at the castle gate earlier.

The inn owner, who saw the Tyler family emblem,

She tilted her head.

“What is that? You want me to show you her face?”

Betty sighed softly and took off his hood.

Soft red hair flowing down.

From Noble mtl dot com

A thin, small face with dense facial features.

Although he looked younger than his age, the nobility that naturally flowed from him could not be hidden.

“Ho, are you by any chance a nobleman?”

The innkeeper’s tone changes.

At that time,

“What’s going on?”

Betty turned around at the sound of a urging voice coming from behind her.

“Tyler Lord?”

One guard was standing there with his eyes wide open.

Seeing that they entered the inn with another guard next to them, it seemed like they were patrolling as a team of two.

‘He seems to be a nobleman…’

He was wearing a kingdom guard uniform, and he guessed who he was just by looking at his face.

It was possible to guess based on two reasons.

But seeing as Betty herself does not know her face, she must be the third son or daughter of a low-ranking nobleman.

“……”

At times like this, Betty kept her mouth shut because he didn’t know what to say.

But it seems that the guard took it as a silent affirmation.

“You are correct, Lord Tyler! I am Nancy of Baron Segovia, the guard guarding the north gate of Villen! But what is going on with this wallpaper?”

Segovia was a family name I had never heard of before. To begin with, it was Betty who only knew a handful of the hundreds of barons.

Anyway,

‘This person doesn’t know my situation.’

While Betty was sighing in relief, he was still trying to figure out what excuse to come up with.

“Ah! I understand!”

But it seems that the guard has arbitrarily decided why Betty came here.

The guard, who realized something on his own as he bumped his palm, continued speaking.

“Then why are you here? There is a luxury inn in Viln called the Griffin. I will take you there.”

At those words, Betty quickly shook her head left and right.

“There is a reason why I want to stay here.”

“What… Ah!”

The guard clapped his hands again and smiled as if he knew something.

Betty felt fortunate to have met someone who liked to skip things.

“As expected, she is the daughter of the Duke of Tyler, who is renowned for her selection. I do not know such a deep meaning.”

It’s okay to point things out as you please, but it seems like his hands and feet will get caught up, so Betty decides to go up to her room.

“I’m tired from the long journey, so I’ll just go up.”

“Yes! Rest in peace!”

Perhaps it was due to her family’s influence, Betty’s tone became harsh when she saw people belonging to military families.

-Squeak.

A door that opens with the sound of old hinges.

The inside of the room was pretty nice.

“Phew…”

Betty roughly took off her cloak and hung it on a hanger in the corner of the room and sat down on the bed.

“I’m a little tired…”

She has magical power like the sea and rarely gets physically tired, but she is a little tired mentally.

She has been in constant distress since Thomas was kidnapped.

“He’ll be here in a day or two…”

If you think about the expected route after Thomas was discovered, you can get that amount of time.

“I’m looking forward to it… Hihi…”

I’m smiling heartily without even realizing it,

-Knock knock.

A knocking sound is heard.

“Who are you?”

“It’s starting.”

‘Start up?’

Sidong refers to a boy who assists a nobleman.

‘I never asked for that?’

Betty decided to open the door for now.

-Squeak.

When I opened the door, a boy who must have been in his mid-teens was standing there.

But the outfit was strange.

Very short, tight shorts, and a tank top that barely covers the chest.

The skin complexion of a short boy who had to look up at himself was very outstanding.

“The soldier told me to pay the rent and go to this room…”

‘Ah…’

Betty understood what this was about.
