Knights, Let’s Smash Them - Knights, Let’s Smash Them chapter 136

136 – There is a present for the married woman leader

Lucy was really happy when she was given the qualification as a knight apprentice.

He

How delighted he was, to the point where he was similarly pleased with eel rice bowls for lunch after a long time.

Looking at her daughter like that, her heart naturally warms up and the tip of her nose frowns.

I wonder if this is the father’s heart.

But my gift didn’t end there. I called Lucy who was being congratulated by the other knights and the squires who were now on the same status.

“Lucy’s apprentice?”

“…… Huh? Oh no, your magistrate!”

Gun gun gun, Lucy walking briskly. For a while, my heart was hit by a lively figure that I hadn’t seen in a while.

“Wait a minute.”

I took out a neatly displayed set of light armor from the luggage compartment of the wagon next to me and showed it to Lucy.

It is finished with high-quality, stiff leather directly imported from the North, and the steel surrounding the chest, abdomen, and thighs is a masterpiece crafted by the best blacksmith of Rupel through 4 rounds of quenching.

In addition, I specially asked Marco Firenze to enchant a magician belonging to San Mariano to lighten it.

The defense power is comparable to that of semi-heavy armor, but the weight is close to that of a cloth garment.

Lucy must have immediately noticed the value of the armor, and his eyes widened as he looked back and forth between me and the armor.

“Dad?”

“This is not a magistrate’s gift, but a gift from your father, Lucy. Obviously, since I became an apprentice knight of the Snow Leopard Knights, shouldn’t I have at least some decent armor?”

Lucy opened his arms and gave me another hug. There were clear tears welling up in his black eyes that he looked up at while holding him on his chest.

“Sorry, sorry…… I’m sorry for bothering you all this time, Dad. I will do really well in the future.”

“Everyone grows up like that.”

I slowly stroked Lucy’s golden hair. Xianne watched from the side with a happy expression, and the other knights also smiled and clapped their hands together.

“How about trying on something like this now, Lucy?”

Regius, who was among the knights, spoke. At that, Lucy seemed to ponder for a moment, then quickly grabbed his armor and hurriedly entered the wagon’s luggage compartment.

Click and click!

Thump!

The sound of something falling loudly was heard over and over again.

Soon after, Lucy appeared, fully dressed in armor, pulling up the leather curtains that had been hung behind her. Since he was wearing a sword around his waist, he looked like a decent knight.

“How is it?”

“Pretty, Lucy. You look just like your mother.”

“hehehe… ….”

When Lucy came down from the luggage compartment with a shy smile, the reaction of the other knights was not much different.

It’s not for nothing that Lucy is misunderstood as a half-elf. It’s not the beauty of this world.

Since even the squires who would have been dissatisfied with Lucy already had a one-sided relationship with Lucy, everyone in the Knights was sincerely happy about Lucy’s appointment as an apprentice knight.

Lucy was quickly surrounded by people and burst into laughter.

Yes.

Perhaps what that child really needed was ‘recognition’.

It was a fatal mistake between me and Xianne, who simply listened to it cheaply just because it was different from others.

“It looks good.”

“I will.”

Sianne, who had come to my side before I knew it, looked at Lucy and said.

“I think Lucy will grow well enough in the future.”

“I agree. You will experience and learn more in the future. Sometimes it’s hard and sad, but…… Isn’t that what life is all about?”

I burst into laughter as I looked at Xianne, who spoke in a tone like a philosopher.

“What, what!”

“Just like that. It’s kind of funny when the captain talks like that.”

“…… Che, I can’t say anything.”

Xian Ne crossed her arms and turned her head away with her jerk. The way she looked was so cute, I stretched out her index finger and put her hand on her cyan’s shoulder.

“Come to my room later. I have something to give the captain.”

“…… Yes?!”

Shianne turned her gaze back to me, startled. Cook, he poked his soft cheek with his index finger.

“Ah!! Really! Luvern Alroy!!”

Then, as if Xi’an had a seizure, she jumped up on the spot and stepped back.

His expression was as red as the shimmering sunset.

“I’m not kidding, so you have to come to the real room?”

From noble mtl dot com.

I was worried that I would be beaten for teasing again, so I quietly left.

Now it was the old man’s turn to let go. He said he was going to have a welcome party for the Squire anyway.

Because Lucia will play well on her own.

I glanced at the half-man, half-dragon that had grown in the blink of an eye, and ran my finger across the tip of my nose.

My eyes are watery because I ate spicy food for breakfast.

Yes, it must be because of the spicy food.

***

Seeing Luvern Alroy coolly turning around and disappearing, Siane Valeos was literally thrown into chaos.

Come to my room later? I had no idea what the hell the administrator was thinking when he said that.

No, to be precise.

She got the hang of it, but she wondered if it was what she thought it was.

Xian Ne is no stranger to her dating life.

As she said last time, even when her father was alive, Xi’an Ne would continue to interact with the ladies of her other families.

I was eighteen then.

Among the young ladies she interacted with, some were already married to nobles from other territories, and some were not.

So, instead of a formal tea party where she wears a dress and walks around the garden, at an after-party where friendly young girls gather in groups of threes and fives to talk after the sun goes down, stories about male relationships come up all the time.

Of course, whenever such a conversation came up, Xi’an said that she always desperately pretended not to be interested.

She was actually listening more intently than anyone else.

-He suddenly told her to stop working during the day and come to her room before dinner.

-In the end, did you skip that day until dinner time and fell asleep from exhaustion? Whooping…….

Just remembering part of her conversation felt like steam rising above her head.

Furthermore, from last time, vice-captain Emain secretly threw out meaningful words to provoke Xianne.

-Captain, you know what? Last time, the Lubern administrator asked about the body size of the leader.

-?!?!?

-Because it’s like this, I’m going to attack you! To be honest, the last time you talked about your worries wasn’t about someone you knew, but about the leader.

-Muh, what are you talking about! Besides, I don’t do anything rude to attack you! But why the hell did Lubern’s magistrate change my body size…… ?

-That’s not important right now. Maybe I’ll lose it then?

The last words of vice-captain Emain Lua pierced Xianne’s heart.

Definitely.

Recently, the airflow between Petra Administrator and Luvern Alroy has been a bit strange.

She was a cyan who was sometimes said to be ignorant, but no matter how much she did, she couldn’t help but notice such a change.

On the other hand, the tone when the two share eyes or talk has strangely softened.

Petra, who was usually clinging to Luvern, rather seemed to avoid situations where the two of them were left alone as much as possible.

It feels like a secret couple who are careful not to gossip.

‘… ….’

When the thought reached that point, Xianne’s expression hardened.

She is Xi’an, who has already faced her own feelings seriously.

In the meantime, she thought it was useless for her to feel jealous over trivial actions like this, so she let it go…… In fact, it was also true that she couldn’t help but care.

And Petra wasn’t the only problem.

Lilia Hebron of the Duchy of Hebron, a new guest of the Snow Leopard Knights.

She was indeed an honest knight and a princess worthy of becoming a Hebron duchess who would be in charge of the north in the future.

It was because her expression, which normally seemed to show no emotion at all, was clearly visible in front of Lou Verne.

Anyone could see that was a crush!

That’s why Cianne can’t say anything about Lillia and Petra.

She likes Lubern Alroy herself, but restraining him and interfering with other romantic relationships is another matter.

In fact, the formal marital relationship between Xianne and Luvern was almost forced.

Every member of the Knights knew that the two had already entered into a contractual relationship as ‘parents’ for Lucy’s upbringing, not as a married couple.

The residents of Petalonto, who initially knew them as a real couple, quickly began to accept that fact as Lucy grew rapidly.

Though thanks to that, the reputation and respect of Xi’an and Luvern rose explosively among the residents.

Now that she has just realized her feelings, from her point of view, even her excuses, which were maintained at least, were crumbling as the days went by.

So in the end.

Xianne came to take out her match underwear, which she had received as a gift from Emain Rua and had been kept until now…… !!

A jet-black, erotic underwear that makes you dizzy just by looking at yourself in the mirror, with the top and bottom aligned.

It has a slightly see-through lining, and the skin color that shimmers through the underwear adds to the sense of sensuality.

“Whoa… ….”

After completing all her preparations, Xianne entered Lubern’s room.

“You are later than expected, Captain?”

Lubern, dressed in a comfortable gown, was lying on the bed.

It was a very blatant appeal! Cianne felt the intense blood rushing from her toes to her head as she cringed into the room.

“How did you know that you came in comfortable clothes?”

“That, that… ….”

Seeing the gaze that seemed to scan her own body, Xianne trembled her body.

Since Lucy is now independent, does this really mean that the two of them should have a child? Then, rather than having a relationship like this, we should hold a formal wedding ceremony and become a husband and wife designated by imperial law…….

All sorts of delusions began to well up in her head. Once the delusion started to spread, it was not easily extinguished.

In front of her eyes, the figure of her already full-term self and Luberne Alroy, holding her hand tightly and feeding her strawberries in midsummer, began to flicker in front of her eyes.

‘My God!’

She was ashamed to cover her face with her hands and slumped in her seat.

“Why are you doing that?”

“Eh?”

“Did you get sick somewhere?”

As soon as her luberne came closer, Cianne rose from her seat and waved her hand in denial.

“Oh no! Me, I never thought of wanting to be the second son!”

“Yes?”

“Eh?”

The two of them made stupid faces at the same time.

And the awkward silence that followed.

Only then, Xianne slowly looked down and found something hanging from Luverne’s arm.

Clothing that looks classy even at first glance.

“Ah, the reason why you called me…….”

“Yes.”

Lubern replied with a grin.

“Because the weather is getting colder now. This is a gift I prepared to help you during your training.”

“Good…… Water…… ?”

Joy. Disappointment.

Happiness. Petulance.

Pleasure. Shame.

A tidal wave of emotions mixed with all sorts of emotions rushed in and hit Xianne.
