Returned Lord Wants To Rest - Returned Lord Wants To Rest chapter 59

Episode 59.

Dave looked at me with a surprised expression.

“Nonsense!”

“It’s real, I’m a black rank mercenary.”

“So you got your hair black too?”

“No, this is a disguise.”

I looked around.

No one is here. I can’t even hear people shouting outside.

“brother.”

It was my turn to share what I really wanted to ask.

“Where is Milia’s exclusive maid, Leah?”

You need to know Leah’s current situation.

As it was, she should still be the maid of the Caldert family.

Besides, since Milia is still alive, there is a possibility that she is still an exclusive lady-in-waiting.

“Leara…”

After thinking for a while, Dave said.

“I am no longer Milia’s exclusive maid. She’s just the maid of the Caldert family. But why?”

I put my mouth to Dave’s ear.

“Never say this.”

I told Dave that I was suspicious of Leah.

There was a purpose in telling Dave about this.

“I need a lookout.”

“watch?”

“The horse is the watcher, it’s enough just to keep an eye on the Caldert family.”

“Um… ok.”

It was Dave hyung who didn’t seem to like it very much.

That’s right, I left out the important details.

I just told her that Leah was suspected of something.

And Dave hyung probably thinks it’s Milia’s case.

‘That’s true, but the nutritional supplements that haven’t happened yet are important.’

If Dave gets to take nutritional supplements through the butler, Hans, it will be certain.

However, it will be a story in the future, so it is close to impossible to prove in the current situation.

Come to think of it, there was something I had to check.

“By the way, Dave, do you have something to eat?”

“no? There is nothing.”

Fortunately, I wasn’t taking nutritional supplements.

“But why?”

“I drank snake wine. I intend to give it to you later. You can’t drink while taking medicine.”

Dave hyung also hasn’t taken nutritional supplements yet.

That said, the future hasn’t changed yet.

“Snake liquor?”

“Yeah, it’s made of Ancient Snake.”

It wasn’t enough that his entire body stiffened at my words, and he was Dave hyung, who even stiffened his expression.

I looked and saw that my hands were shaking.

“You’re giving me that precious thing?”

“To be precise, it is a gift to the family. share with family It won’t be much.”

Dave hyung with a thrilled expression on his face.

Is that something to be so proud of?

‘Honestly, Ancient Snake’s small bottle was worth the price of a luxury accessory.’

Being so happy made me feel good too.

“Anyway, I’ll ask you to keep an eye on Leah. The place I am now is an inn in the capital of the Mycenae Empire.”

“OK got it. however···.”

Dave broods for a moment.

“When will the Ancient Snake Liquor be finished?”

“There is still a lot left, so wait slowly.”

Seeing Dave hyung expecting more than I thought, I was about to laugh.

I went into my room and searched through the drawers.

“Here it is.”

The necklace that interprets the ancient letters was still in the same place.

“Well, the necklace won’t run away.”

It was also fortunate. If someone had stolen it, it would have been very complicated.

I put the necklace in my arms and thought.

‘I met Alt and Dave. then···.’

I want to see the faces of others, but I can’t wait long.

I thought of writing a letter.

“Now I can be honest.”

I will finish running away, but I will never return home.

I wanted to see more of the world.

I went to the academy, and I was also a mercenary. Now he is also a gladiator in the Empire.

There were risks many times, but first of all, it was fun.

“It was different from when I was stuck in the office and only worked.”

Experiencing a world I had never seen before was more rewarding and fun than I thought.

[I will write a letter from time to time.]

At the end of the letter he wrote:

Seeing how Dave took on the job as an assistant manager, the successor was definitely decided.

won’t bother me anymore

“I made some money as an imperial gladiator…”

Now I need to find a house to live in.

A house in the Jordon Free City is good, but in the long run, it is a dangerous place.

“Where would be good?”

I pondered for a while.

But no answer came.

There is still a lot of time, so there is no need to decide right away.

“I should at least go on a trip after the request from Ephinia is over.”

After thinking, I went to sleep.

It wasn’t quiet, but I quickly fell asleep in the warmth of the house.

and woke up at dawn

“Let’s leave the letter behind.”

I was going to say goodbye and leave, but somehow I didn’t like it.

I’m going to come back anyway after everything is over, so there won’t be a need to say goodbye.

After leaving the letter in each room, I went to the inn where Ephinia and the others were.

Patrick was in the clearing behind the inn.

“Patrick, are you training?”

“Yes, I do it every single day.”

It’s training from dawn.

I became ashamed of my own laziness.

‘I said I would become a sword master, but contrary to what I said, I was lazy.’

Patrick, who was at a lower level than me, was working harder than me.

“Do you want to do sparring after a long time?”

“If you do, that’s fine with me!”

Actually, there is one thing I have been wanting to do for a long time.

I picked up six twigs that were rolling around nearby.

“Ah, that’s more like training than sparring…”

Patrick looks a bit disappointed.

I shook my head.

“Until now, there were many times when I used this power and swordsmanship separately. I’m also trying to get used to using it at the same time.”

I’ve been imagining There is a thread in the exorcism sword, so there is no need to use multiple swords.

However, I imagined moving multiple swords and spreading swordsmanship with each sword.

‘It must be very difficult to deal with.’

If they are attacked in different ways from all directions, it will not be easy to block them.

However, if you use telekinesis to move the sword, it is weaker than the sword held in your hand because it cannot contain mana.

It’s just a sword that moves in the air, so it’s questionable whether it’ll be useful against masters.

“Now, let’s start!”

I drew the exorcism sword and swung it at Patrick.

Originally, I would have been able to defeat Patrick in one shot, but this was also training.

I matched it to the same level as Patrick.

“Ugh!”

I said I adjusted my strength, but Patrick’s expression blocking my sword looked quite difficult.

“Patrick, did you train every day?”

“you’re right!”

I said it out loud on purpose.

Stimulated by my words, Patrick began to swing his sword much better than before.

Here I am a bit perplexed.

It wasn’t because of Patrick’s growth.

‘It’s very complicated.’

The limit was to float a tree branch with telekinesis. Unlike the thread, it was difficult to concentrate.

Even so, I moved the branch while blocking Patrick’s attack.

‘I guess I’m getting used to it little by little.’

got a sense

And the moment I caught on, my proficiency began to rise.

Even while blocking Patrick’s attack, he started attacking Patrick with a branch.

Before we begin, I told Patrick to think of this branch as a real sword.

Thanks to that, Patrick obediently distanced himself from me.

“Patrick, let’s see how it goes.”

I ran straight to Patrick.

Tree branches floated in the air all around me.

Patrick attacked in all directions.

However, due to my lack of proficiency, there were many gaps in my attack. It was to attack Patrick sequentially with a slight difference.

“Master…”

Patrick blocked all of my branch attacks, but the sword in my hand couldn’t block it.

“What do you think?”

It was a little different from what I thought, but this was enough.

“Um… if you think of branches as true swords…”

“if?”

“It’s difficult to stop, but I don’t think it’s that hard. I think it will be good against sewage.”

Against sewage…

“However, if you fight with an opponent who is equal or higher than you, I think it will be rather poisonous.”

Patrick’s judgment was correct.

I felt that way too.

Unlike the thread, there were too many gaps while using telekinesis on the sword.

“Right···.”

As expected, the owner of the exorcism sword did not choose the thread for nothing.

“Still, I think the number of spleens is still good.”

“That’s right.”

Just throwing a sword around, inducing the opponent’s vigilance to stab the sword with telekinesis.

But that was too cowardly even in my opinion.

‘I shouldn’t do it that way as much as possible.’

Of course, if I were to be in danger, I would not be in a position to cover it up.

“By the way, what is Ephinia doing?”

“Ephinia-nim and the Messiah are probably sleeping.”

is it. Well, it came too soon.

Patrick, who is awake at this time, must be diligent.

“Okay, since it’s been a while, I’ll take care of your training.”

“Is that true? thank you!”

Patrick is truly delighted.

Suddenly, when I saw Patrick, an idea came to my mind.

‘It would be fun if Patrick and Toner played each other?’

Patrick is also talented enough.

But Toner’s talent easily surpasses Patrick’s.

That doesn’t mean Toner’s talent surpasses everything Patrick’s.

‘I’ll have to make it happen someday.’

It’s just a prediction, but if Patrick and Toner fight, it’s clear that Patrick will win.

No matter how genius it is, it takes time to surpass experience.

***

On the way back to the Mycenae Empire, I handed over the magic tools to Ephinia. Epinia said that she would try to interpret the book with magic tools.

And the first person who greeted me upon arriving in the Empire was Toner.

As I was entering the inn room, Toner attacked me.

However, after lightly dodging Toner’s attack, I grabbed him by the back of his head and slammed him into the wall.

“Master…? This?”

“Ah, come to think of it, you will see it for the first time. It’s a boy named Toner.”

“yes···?”

“I’m the son of the Marquis of Matarna, and I entrusted my children’s education.”

It was Patrick who still did not understand.

“It’s just something you can deal with when you’re bored.”

“Is that so…?”

“huh.”

entered the inn. While lying down and resting for a while, the Messiah came.

“Get some rest, why are you here?”

“The opponent for the next match has been decided.”

Speaking of opponents in the next match…

“Ranked 6th?”

“Yes, that’s right. I am Karak, a savage greatsword warrior who ranks 6th in the gladiator rankings. True to its nickname, it uses a greatsword.”

it’s a sword

It was all I had faced before at the academy.

Perhaps Karak is also at the highest level of sword expert.

“Isn’t it top class?”

“Yes, that’s right. With the exception of Pastard, who is ranked number 1, all of the top 10 in the rankings are at the highest level of Sword Expert.”

I didn’t know before, but there were more strong people in the Colosseum than I thought.

Even if you become an intermediate level sword expert, you can enter the Royal Knights.

But if it’s top notch.

‘There are a lot of royal knight commanders.’

It must be said that it was the majesty of the empire, but it seemed that there were as many talented people as the land was large.

‘But the two powerful empires started a war.’

It must have been an unavoidable result for neighboring countries to join the war.

Whatever it is, war is not a good thing.

‘Because there are so many things to do.’

I got goosebumps when I remembered the time when the war broke out before returning.
