Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid - Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid chapter 101
101 – 25. Without hesitation (2)
There is a saying that a horse without feet can travel a thousand miles.
It means that the power of rumors coming out of people’s mouths is enormous.
No matter how far away things happen, they always reach the other side.
As much as that, the power of ‘words’ was powerful enough to transcend imagination.
“Did you hear the news?”
And even here in Lichtenau, the footless horse reached.
The story was conveyed as the top of the Leggram came and went.
“This time, a second-class Demonic Landscape appeared in Fiore as well. It is said that the subjugation was successful, but according to rumors, it was not done with Fiore’s power alone.”
“I heard that rumor too. I think I can hear the name of our Lichtenauer.”
“That’s when a knight appeared and slaughtered the monsters.”
“No, no. From what I heard, you said you were an attendant?”
The story that spreads from people’s mouth spread to the nature in an instant.
And unlike the outside where there are many people who wonder whether they are knights or servants.
The people in the castle who heard the news, especially the remaining knights and attendants, nodded ‘Ah’.
“Sir Adele.”
“Sir Adele.”
“Sir Adele.”
It hadn’t even been a year since Adele had been an attendant.
The knight exam will be held in the next four months.
Even so, people in the castle were already putting ‘Kyung’ after Adele.
Not even servants like Adele or those who are in charge of things of nature.
Even the knights who took a legitimate knight test and obtained qualifications.
“Shouldn’t you take a real knight test when this comes back?”
“Captain. To be honest, it’s too eye-catching. I just want to get a job as a knight soon.”
“So do i. Then you can say that you are trained by the same knight.”
These were the ones who suffered a lot as servants for a year and took the knight test.
Some of them even failed the exam and spent another year or more as servants.
It is customary to go through the process from beginning to end no matter how talented you are.
Considering that no one has ever broken that.
Considering that they are bound by the tradition, it was a very surprising reaction.
Lichtenau’s knight commander, Brenda, scratched his head at the knights’ question.
“Why didn’t you tell me that? It’s a problem because the head of household didn’t allow it.”
“Even though we agree?”
“I will make no exceptions for anyone. If you make an exception like that, it could be abused later. And he said he didn’t want to break the tradition of our knights and senior knights.”
Brender knew why Shien was so determined to say no.
Although there is also the fact that the moment an exception is made, such an exception may occur again.
In addition to that, the moment you receive special treatment, you will catch people’s attention without realizing it.
Fortunately, it would be fortunate if it only had eyes of awe and admiration.
But don’t you say you don’t know what the human heart is originally?
In the meantime, if feelings of jealousy or envy arise, it will be very difficult for each other.
‘That means you don’t want any noise. It means that he values Adele that much.’
Come to think of it, the way Adele looked at her was a bit strange.
It wasn’t just the eyes that looked at an outstanding attendant or a future knight.
The image of a girl who is trying hard to hide her love, yes. That was it.
Brenda didn’t wonder about that part.
No, on the contrary, it was taken for granted.
Wasn’t it amazing from the first meeting between Cien and Adele?
Lichtenauer, who suffered from the demons, and Adele, who saved them.
In addition to the overwhelming force shown there, there was even a mysterious atmosphere that could not be described in words.
The reason to feel a crush on the other person is already enough at that moment.
‘There’s Adele’s son. Even for a man, he looks too handsome.’
Women said that they were attracted to the duplicity of men.
He has such a graceful appearance, but inside of him, he possesses the power of chauvinism.
However, it is not to boast or show off again, but to limit it to the extreme.
If that was Adele’s strategy, it would be proof that he was a genius.
On the contrary, if it is just Adele’s original appearance, it can only be said that she was born with it.
In addition, Shien also had all the conditions for a man to pass.
Didn’t she have all the necessary virtues as a family head, not just physical beauty?
It was probably a natural step for each other to feel a crush on each other.
“I mean. To be honest, I want to focus on other issues than Adele becoming a knight.”
“huh? What do you mean, Captain?”
“Is that what you mean? The relationship between the head of household and Adele is a bit strange.”
“… Did you? That’s strange. I didn’t feel it.”
“Your original love sense is dead. That’s why I haven’t even held a woman’s hand yet.”
“Wow. Are you killing allies like this?”
Although he is in the position of captain, he does not treat the knights with any particular formality.
Thanks to this, Brenda started joking around with the knights under his command.
“Then fine. I’m just a fleeting spring breeze, I bet a silver coin on it.”
“Is the knight willing to gamble? Wow, Captain. Is this bastard crazy?”
“You won’t? Then don’t.”
“Then I have something with the head of the household and Sir Adele and one silver coin.”
A single silver coin would barely cross the line.
Have you ever thought that this isn’t too bad?
Brenda giggled and pulled out two silver coins and held them out.
“I have something too, I’ll bet two silver coins on it.”
“Ooh. You walk twice as long as the captain.”
“Then we split like this and have a drink on our day off.”
The bet, which started as a half-joking move, goes quite specific.
It is said that one execution power is truly terrifying.
There was good news just in time.
“Captain. The head of the household will return soon.”
“okay? It’s just fine. Now, let’s all proceed without a hitch to prepare for the family head.”
This is Sien who went to Fiore, not anywhere else.
That mental fatigue would be considerable, so it would be right for the family to relieve it.
Those who manage the castle began to tidy up all over the castle.
The cooks put a lot of effort into preparing the dinner.
Finally, the knights lined up on the way to the housekeeper’s arrival and were ready to greet him.
And when less than an hour had passed, a carriage with the family head appeared in front of the castle.
It feels as if he has won a victory even though he has not been to a battlefield.
No, maybe it could be said that he really came out victorious.
I went to Fiore, which was building a confrontational structure with Lichtenau, and came to receive a thank you.
Also, the head of the Fiore family bowed their heads, not once, but twice.
It could be said that this was a greater honor than a victory in a fair amount of battles.
Blender, who had been waiting in advance, approached the front of the wagon with Rascal.
After a while, the door opened, and Adele stepped forward and held Shien’s hand.
“My lord.”
“Welcome back.”
“How has everyone been? There were no big problems in the manor, right?”
“yes. All of the Demonic Scenes that occurred were also subdued without much damage, and there was nothing special about it other than that.”
“It’s good. It is a very good day in many ways.”
Shien nodded with a smile and took a step.
Adele sits closely behind them, talking quietly to each other.
“hmm?”
Rascal, who was walking behind the couple at a slight distance, noticed something strange.
I wonder if it was my imagination that the relationship between Cien and Adele felt very close than before.
Then Brenda comes over and asks Rascal.
“Captain of the guard. How do you see it?”
“Suddenly I don’t know what you mean.”
“Two people over there. Aren’t they getting along very well?”
“This person.”
Rascal looked around and cleared his throat.
“I’m not saying things like that carelessly. Especially when it comes to the head of the household.”
“However, it seems that you have Sir Adele by your side openly, as if you want to let others know. Did you see the head of the guard laughing like that?”
At Brenda’s question, Rascal glanced at Shien.
Even just looking at it from behind, not from the front, I can feel its bright energy.
Sometimes I talk about something while watching Adele standing next to me, and every time I do, she smiles so brightly.
It was to the point where I had the illusion that some kind of light was shining around me.
“hmm.”
After sighing once, Rascal suddenly pushed something out of his arms.
“… What is this?”
“I want to take a step too.”
What he held out was a silver coin. Everyone knows why and why.
Thanks to this, Brenda laughed as if it were absurd.
“No, senior. Weren’t you the one who nagged me not to do that?”
“That’s true, but since I’ve been living with the soldiers, this shouldn’t be too bad.”
“Tell me honestly. Didn’t you just like being drunk?”
“Kuhm.”
With a giggle, Brenda took the silver coin.
“Of course, since I saw that scene, it would be natural for me to bet.”
“yes. The only thing left for the head of household is to be happy.”
“Please, I hope so too.”
The two knights laughed and looked at Shien and Adele, who were leading in the distance.
I’ve felt it before, but these two men and women get along very well.
I think we will become the kind of existence that fills each other’s lacking parts.
Thinking so, the two knights followed the family leader.
