Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid - Master Swordsman Genius Handmaid chapter 67
67 – 18. Change (3)
The work of the head of state is not limited to paperwork.
Rather, it is more important to look at the circumstances outside than to lock yourself in the castle.
How is the public sentiment in Yeongji and what bad things have happened?
If you have something to congratulate, you can simply say congratulations.
On the contrary, those things that make you sad together when you are sad.
The closer those above come to those below.
The distance between each other is farther away and the bond is stronger.
In the north, where people were relatively important, that kind of temperament was strong.
Because it was not limited to Lichtenau.
However, Shien was a little burdened by the work of the family head.
They’re vassals, but they’re a bit used to it, so that’s true.
The local people are still a bit unfamiliar to her.
I was worried about how they would look at me.
When I was living in the center, I got a lot of bad looks.
Or because their gaze is too blatant.
Shien had suffered quite a bit in the past.
“Are you ready, Adele? Get out quickly.”
But not now, rather, Cien is urging us to leave first.
The reason she was so eager was none other than Adele.
“Didn’t you go out yesterday too?”
“Yesterday the weather was very bad. But how about today, Adele?”
“… The sun has risen.”
“Yes? On a day like this, go outside and get some fresh air and get some sunlight.”
To a man who would have been all about dying and dying.
I want to let people know that the world is a brighter place than you think.
You say you fought to escape, but because of your actions.
I would also like to know how many lives were saved.
You don’t seem to know much about yourself, but you are a really great person.
Shien hoped he would know that one day.
Eventually, at her strong request, Adele followed.
multiple, multiple -.
It is said to tour the territory of Lichtenau, but it is the way the head of the household takes the lead.
Originally, it is correct to have an escort manpower suitable for that authority.
However, only Adele was the only person escorting Shien.
If the other vassals knew, they would say no.
For Shien, who knew everything, Adele alone was enough.
If it is possible to deal with the 1st grade demon spectacle alone and to deal with multiple knights.
As long as he is by his side, nothing in the world will be able to touch him.
I’m a little sorry for the knights of Lichtenau, but I’m much stronger than them.
– I’m not ignoring others, but I’m comfortable being alone in case of emergency. –
Even Adele clearly displayed that confidence.
The conviction that no matter what comes, you can overcome everything alone.
At that, Shien was relieved and hurried on his way.
Passing the gate and drawbridge into the main castle, the sun breaks through the clouds just in time.
Afterwards, the moderately warm sunlight welcomes the two men and women.
“The weather is very nice today. I was worried about the clouds over the past few days.”
“Is that something to worry about?”
“The north is cold compared to other parts of the empire. I hope that even a little bit of warm energy remains. Maybe southerners can’t adapt to the climate here?”
“… Come to think of it, I think it was too hot in the South.”
The Devil’s Edge is the northern end, and it doesn’t appear as it goes over the southern end.
Of course, it was Adele, who had been fighting monsters all over the empire.
However, there were relatively few visits to the north because of Lichtenau.
It was rare for them to go there because they risked their lives to protect the northern land.
For similar reasons, the northwestern part of Fiore is also the same.
“You must have been to the South a lot?”
“yes. There was nowhere to fight as well as Liechtenauer.”
“ah… .”
“It was a very troublesome place, where if one area was pierced, the other area was also pierced.”
It sounds like a very easy thing to hear.
In fact, even if they couldn’t do it, they had to block the 3rd grade, most of the 2nd grade demon spectacles.
In the south, like the western part of the empire, there are many wide plains, so it would be a big problem if one area was breached.
That’s why the wolfheddin wasn’t fighting a melee the way he usually did.
Even if he moved to another place while gnawing away at the number of monsters.
It was induced to be pulverized by soldiers of other imperial troops or nobles.
“How is it there? I heard from the center that it is a warm place that is incomparably warmer than here.”
“It is warm. But I don’t think it’s as good as the people here.”
“to? why?”
“When I think of the South, the only thing that comes to mind is the way we fight each other to survive.”
At Adele’s words, Shien let out a sigh of relief.
If he felt disappointed in that part, it means that he will be relatively less here.
You can become more human only when you have hope, not disappointment in people.
I heard that you fought a lot during that time and let go a lot.
It may not be the best place for Adele to rest, but it is a place where she can rest comfortably for a while.
Sean wanted Lichtenauer to be that kind of place for Adele.
Fortunately, this is not the South that Adele has been through.
Although it has a barren aspect compared to that place.
At least among people, it is a place that is more affluent than anywhere else.
“Hey, lord.”
“oh my!”
Seeing Shien’s silver hair and red eyes, people hurriedly fell to their knees.
They are the owners of Lichtenauer who take responsibility for and protect themselves.
It is natural to show an example suitable for the position.
“Everybody wake up. The floor is still very cold.”
“ah… .”
“Come on. Now, how about the canal we dug yesterday? Have you made any progress?”
“yes? ah… Well, it’s still not very good, my lord. The ground is still hard… . sorry.”
“I’m sorry. Rather, you are suffering a lot. However, if you just drill through the canal, you won’t have to worry for a while, so please try a little harder. If you miss the timing, it will be difficult.”
“Is it possible?”
“And I heard that the elder here is not feeling well. How is it these days?”
“Thankfully a few days ago… .”
While Xian and Young Ji-min are having a conversation.
Adele stayed right behind and watched them silently.
One day, even the emperor would sometimes look like that.
Sometimes, even if you are like a huge mountain that can never be climbed.
Another day, it looked like a low hill that even children could climb easily.
“Adele?”
“… ah. Yes, Shien.”
“Should we stop moving?”
The two men and women mounted their horses and moved to the next village.
This time I didn’t bother to go inside, I just looked at it from a distance.
“You know what, Adele? In that village over there, there are many strongmen.”
At the place Shien pointed out, there were several people who were busy working.
Beside them are women and children, or old people.
“All of them are someone’s husband, father. or a son So in order to protect them, when the time comes, they become soldiers who hold on to weapons and fight against demons. Why am I suddenly saying this, do you know why?”
Adele shook her head as if she didn’t know.
“These are the ones who saved lives thanks to you not too long ago.”
“… I mean?”
“The time when several Demon Lords appeared at the same time. These were the people who were in charge at the time. If Adele hadn’t been a decisive help in closing the third-class Demonic Realm, the damage in the front would have been greater.”
“It’s different from me… .”
“You saved it. their lives. and the lives of those around them. So you can be proud of it. No, it must be. Although she repeats herself that it was to relieve her anger or to escape from guilt. You are a greater person than I thought.”
Adele couldn’t say anything else at the obvious tone of Shien.
Then I slowly turned my head and looked at the laughing people in the distance.
“… .”
Why did he kill the beasts, because that was the only way.
Whether it was revenge or, at least, guilt, that was the only way left.
It was not done for anything or anyone.
When the fight is over, we move on to the next fight,
After the fight, they moved to another battlefield.
I didn’t look behind me, I only looked at the enemy.
So, Shien’s words that he saved someone through that fight.
For Adele, it came back as a very fresh shock.
– You are a better person than you think. –
He muttered those words quietly and looked at Shien.
The image of her riding a horse in the clear afternoon sunlight is imprinted in my eyes.
I don’t know why you treat yourself like this.
That’s not too bad, Adele thought.
– I like you very much. –
The words Xian said to himself not too long ago.
Adele suddenly wanted to answer her words.
From nob le mt l. co m
My heart, I don’t know if that’s the case.

way back to nature.
“Adele.”
“Yes, Shien.”
“Can I ask a question?”
“Anything.”
What are you trying to ask again?
I think I told you most of the things that happened during my Wolfhedin days.
To be honest, I didn’t say anything that was a bit reduced.
Even if you think about it, if you say it as it is, it’s too absurd.
I just used to explain it to the extent that I could reasonably accept it.
Have you ever wondered about those parts?
So should I be honest?
Adele thought about this and that and waited for the next word.
“Do you have any favorite food?”
“… yes?”
However, the words that came out of Shien’s mouth were completely unexpected.
“Can you say that again?”
“It is my favorite food. Anything is fine. Can you answer me?”
A few days later, a banquet is scheduled to be held within the family.
A time to invite neighboring nobles to share friendship and solidify solidarity.
Alcohol is indispensable at such a place, and various foods will follow.
Sean wanted to prepare one for Adele, even if he couldn’t do it.
“My favorite food is… There is no other… .”
Of course, of course it has to be.
So far, food has been just a means for minimal nutrient intake.
I didn’t eat to savor the taste, not to enjoy it.
“Still, is there anything that just comes to mind?”
“Even if you say so… Umm… .”
Thought over and over again, Adele finally pulled out one.
“Beef jerky… ?”
Upon hearing Adele’s answer, Shien could only sigh.
