Returned Lord Wants To Rest - Returned Lord Wants To Rest chapter 85
Episode 85.
The innkeeper started to annoy me as I was lost in thought.
“Do you think such a beast can understand human speech! Okay, please give me a reward soon!”
Haru growled at the innkeeper as if he was annoyed by the innkeeper’s words.
The innkeeper was frightened by Har’s appearance and stepped back.
“No matter how you think about it, it’s strange.”
“What… what’s wrong?”
“Our Haru won’t just hurt like that. I wouldn’t know if the horse had only bones left. That’s not what Har did.”
If you just reward them with money, the work is over.
However, the innkeeper seemed to be offended.
I woke up from a sound sleep in the morning and was in a state of annoyance.
“Then, are you saying that we did something like that for the purpose of compensation?”
That’s what it says.
Seeing the words come out right away, it seemed certain.
“…”
When I said nothing, a sneer crept across the innkeeper’s face.
“That’s how it comes out. Then, I will call the soldiers.”
soldier?
“What if you are a soldier?”
“A third party would definitely judge it.”
The proud appearance of the innkeeper calling for soldiers.
It seemed like there was something behind me.
“Then, let’s call.”
“yes.”
The innkeeper went out for a while and came back.
The time was very short, so it must have been someone called first.
“Hello, this is Hoss, a soldier guarding the town of Forast.”
Do you have such a kind self-introduction?
Hoth was a figure wearing armor and appearing to be a soldier in and of itself.
“Hmm… I wonder if he is a real soldier, so show me your ID.”
Hose didn’t panic and showed his ID.
A real soldier hit.
I unconsciously nodded my head.
And at that appearance, the innkeeper smiled.
“Hey Soldier Hoth, look at those horses.”
said Hose, who glanced over the horses.
“Just as you said. Hey, it would be right for you to compensate.”
What the hell are you looking at and saying things like that?
“I think you are only listening to one side.”
“Everything points to that wolf being the culprit, so what more do I need to hear? If I can’t reward you more than that, I’ll have to kill that wolf.”
The soldier’s rude words raised a little anger.
I tried to end it well, but it didn’t work.
“Hey, call the highest person in Forast Village.”
“hehehe, that kind of person is busy and doesn’t have time to meet you.”
The highest person in Forest Village would be the village chief.
However, the village chief was not such a busy position.
“So you’re saying you’re going to kill my wolf if I can’t pay you?”
“yes.”
I looked at the innkeeper.
“I’ll bear with you if you tell me the truth right now.”
“frankness? This is where I am very honest.”
Unknowingly, I was blown away by their shameless appearance.
People hardened at my momentum.
The innkeeper’s and Hoth’s expressions also hardened.
It was Moya who realized that he had touched the wrong person.
But there was no reason for me to touch them.
“Who are you!”
Suddenly, a new figure entered the stable.
It seemed that he was the one who noticed the momentum I was exuding.
I was in a state of anger, so I answered in a sharp tone.
“If you’re curious about who I am, why don’t you introduce yourself first?”
Hose and the innkeeper’s expressions brightened when they confirmed the new person.
It looked like he was alive.
“Viscount Matilla!”
If it was Viscount Matilla…
‘He was the lord of Forast Village.’
It was definitely a name heard in the royal family of the Holy Empire.
“Oh, you are Viscount Matilla.”
Hose and the innkeeper’s spirits became equal at my softened appearance.
Hose shouted, suddenly confident.
“this guy! Your head is high in front of Viscount Matilla!”
It’s ridiculous.
“Viscount Matilla, my name is Suhar.”
Just in case, I said my name.
Then Viscount Matilla showed a clear reaction.
“If it’s Suhar, no way! Have you come down from the capital of the Holy Empire of Epia?”
“yes.”
“It is an honour! To meet and meet the honorary status of the Holy Empire of Epia like this. I have heard about the ball he made.”
It’s an honorary status.
It was something I definitely refused.
“I heard that you took care of an organization that was hiding behind our capital. When I heard that you were coming here, I also came here with the mindset of just in case.”
“hahahaha.”
I laughed awkwardly.
Behind Viscount Matilla, the expression of Hoss and the innkeeper came into view as they turned to contemplation.
This situation seemed unexpected.
“But why…”
It sounds like you are asking about a situation like this.
I told you what had happened here from beginning to end.
“I see that something like that happened… If it’s a wolf, is that kid?”
Viscount Matilla pointed at Har.
“yes.”
“No matter how you look at it, you’re a gentle kid.”
“Until now, I’ve never seen anyone touching livestock, let alone people…”
I continued, glaring at the innkeeper.
“Strangely, this time! He touched cattle. After saying that if my wolf ever touches my horse, I will reward you twice as much.”
Viscount Matilla, who noticed the situation, was enraged.
“Oh, okay. That’s very strange. It’s very strange, I think. It’s strange no matter who sees it…”
“That’s strange, soldier! He said it was my fault too.”
There will definitely be something coming and going.
‘I was lucky.’
The innkeeper and the hose lowered their faces.
Their feelings will be ruined in one word.
They touched the wrong person.
“I will take good care of it. I guess I’ll have to do a thorough investigation.”
“Yes, please take care of me.”
I don’t know what their disposition will be, but it is certain that they will be punished.
‘Because it’s so lax.’
They wouldn’t have been properly camouflaged.
It was because there would be no need to properly produce evidence in a game between soldiers and innkeepers.
“But it is strange.”
“yes? What else…?”
Viscount Matilla glared at the innkeeper and Hoth.
I shook my head and said.
“No, it has nothing to do with them.”
“Then, what do you think is strange?”
“I obviously turned down the honorary status.”
Besides, it was normal for Viscount Matilla to not know me.
“Ah… that’s…”
Viscount Matilla spoke obediently.
I refused the honorary status, and I also refused to tell the manor of Forast Village to take care of the trip.
However, after I left, it was said that plans to inflict great damage on the Holy Empire came out one after another in the documents of the Northern Merchant.
That’s why I was forcibly raised to an honorary position, and the story was told even to Viscount Matilla.
“That’s how it happened.”
“So I came to this village in a hurry. But to be caught up in something like this… is truly disrespectful.”
“hahahaha, no.”
I called Har.
Haru jumped lightly and left the stable.
“Then, I’ll just go.”
“yes?”
It was Viscount Matilla who was very flustered.
“Are you leaving in such a hurry because you are offended by them?”
“It is not. Originally, we only had one day and decided to leave.”
“I’m glad if that’s the case.”
Viscount Matilla sighed in relief.
I said goodbye to them and left.
The innkeeper and hose, last seen before leaving, were tied up on a rope and taken somewhere.
‘It’s ugly.’
I hurriedly headed back to the capital of the Holy Empire of Epia.
The goal of the trip is to destroy the branches scattered all over the continent, but I thought I didn’t want to give up on the trip.
Meanwhile, Epinia persuaded me.
The Mycenaean Empire is also overflowing with things to see.
‘Well, I only saw the Colosseum in the Mycenaerian Empire.’
As the land mass is wide, there will be plenty to see.
So I decided to go on a trip with Ephinia’s persuasion.
However, there was one thing that was a little suspicious.
“Why do you want to meet at night?”
It would be nice to start the journey in a wagon during the day.
For some reason, he seemed to know what Ephinia was thinking.
“Ah… I can’t believe it…”
But it was such an absurd idea that I gave up on it.
***
Amis opened the door to the place where Princess Ephinia lived.
But there was no Epinia.
“What is this!”
Amis panicked and recalled an ominous memory.
It was a memory from when Epinia was kidnapped.
But that thought went away when he saw the letter on the table.
“Could you… do something like that…?”
Amice smiled awkwardly.
Armis, who opened the letter on the table and checked the contents of the letter, was furious.
“Princess!!”
In the letter, it was written that he would travel with Suhar for a while.
***
After meeting Epinia, I set out on a journey as if running away.
I was a little taken aback because I really left as if I was running away.
“Didn’t you tell Amice?”
“No, I did.”
“But why are you leaving at night without a carriage?”
“Um… just?”
As I expected, he obviously didn’t tell Armis.
From nob le mt l. co m
No, I would have said it correctly, but I wouldn’t have asked for permission.
Epinia said with a bright smile.
“Since the two of you are leaving like this, something reminds me of the old days.”
“Once upon a time?”
I rummaged through my memories for a while.
“You forgot?”
“Ah, I see.”
We met during our academy days.
We went to the ruins together and went back to the academy together.
“Something like that happened.”
“yes.”
It brought back memories of that time.
“Academy… It’s a bit disappointing.”
I wish I had gotten my diploma and left.
“I know. I do have some regrets about that.”
Epinia also did not receive a diploma.
“Still, if you hadn’t dropped out first, my curse wouldn’t have been lifted like this.”
“That’s something you don’t know.”
Even if I hadn’t dropped out, I would have lifted Ephinia’s curse someday.
For some reason, I felt that way.
Epinia petted Har and said.
“Eheh… anyway, where should we go first?”
I was honestly taken aback by that statement.
“Ephinia needs to know that.”
Ephinia must have convinced me, so I thought that Ephinia would guide me.
“That’s… it’s true. Well… as far as I know.”
There were a lot of options called by Epinia.
After all, she should be called a princess, but she was quick about the country she would rule.
“You are also the princess. You know where to rule.”
“What are you talking about?”
Ephinia made an expression as if to say something.
I was once again taken aback by the sight.
“uh? Aren’t you going to succeed your father as emperor?”
The Mycenae Empire was different from the Loto Kingdom, so it was the eldest son’s succession.
Although Ephinia is a princess, she is the most talented among Emperor Mycenae’s children.
So, of course, I thought that Ephinia would become the next emperor, that is, the empress.
‘Come to think of it, when Ephinia went to the academy, her nickname was Empress.’
Maybe that’s why, of course, I thought Ephinia would ascend the throne.
“no. My younger brother suits me better than me.”
“Your brother?”
Ephinia’s younger siblings ranged from the 1st to the 3rd prince.
“Yes, First Prince Leodalt.”
1st Prince Leodalt remembered.
Because the current emperor lived so long, it was late for him to ascend the throne.
That’s why he doesn’t know what kind of government.
However, if Ephinia praised him, he would have become a great emperor.
“In the first place, I gave up the succession because of the curse.”
“Oh, I see.”
“Still, even without the curse, I would probably have given up on succession.”
Ephinia’s words that she would have given up on the succession.
For some reason, Ephinia seemed to shine as she said that.
how come
Is it because you have the same thoughts as me?
“This will threaten me. Let’s go to the village right away.”
That’s how Ephinia and my journey began.
Of course Haru is also with him.
