The Escort Knight Who Is Being Obsessed Over by the Villainess Wants To Run Away - Chapter 200



200 – 71. Sea Trip (3)

The next morning.

“It hurts…” .”

Elijah, who returned to Beersheba from the cage, grumbled.

I got scolded the day before.

The spot where I was scolded was swollen.

She also felt a little stingy.

There are also red kiss marks around the nape of her neck.

She is not revealed because she is covered with a red scarf.

For your information, there are more of her below that.

Judas cleared his throat for no reason.

“Big, hmm. “She said she liked it and asked for more.”

“Be quiet.”

“Yep.”

We had a great time from night to dawn, and I wanted to dedicate today to just the two of us.

But she could not completely abandon her work as emperor, so she returned to Beersheba after breakfast.

“It’s a little cold.”

It was quite chilly in the port city early in the morning.

In addition, Beersheba was farther north than where the palace was located, so it was cool even in summer.

Judah hugged her from behind without her saying a word.

“Hmph.”

Elijah smiled happily and she wrapped her arms around him.

Warmth spreads from her back and soon envelops her entire body.

Judah also touched her nose against her head and laughed.

Soft and sweet smell.

The only warmth on the cool dock. It seems to shine clearly.

“But if you do this, you won’t be able to walk.”

“You can just walk like this.”

Judah held Elijah in his arms and waddled in front of her.

Elijah also started waddling along with her.

It was a funny gait like a lazy penguin.

“What is this?”

Elijah burst out laughing.

She heard a chirping laugh and Judah also laughed.

How can it be so cute?

It looked funny, but I didn’t hate it, so I just waddled along.

It would take a while to get to the dock where the Hosea was anchored, but it didn’t matter.

She didn’t set a date for meeting Gabrielle, and she came back quite early.

The port in the morning was bustling.

Ship coming into the dock.

People moving fishing nets or cargo boxes containing fish.

Because it was a hastily formed fortress city, workers were constructing or repairing buildings.

Seagulls flying to the beach.

Fish flowing down to the bottom.

Cats targeting the fish.

The two people waddled along amidst a small commotion.

Because they were busy, no one bothered to look at them.

Even if I recognized him, I couldn’t talk to him or make a fuss.

Seeing the two of them being alone here, I didn’t dare say anything to disturb them.

Suddenly Elijah stopped.

I look somewhere.

“Ellie? Why?”

“Cat.”

“Cat?”

Elijah found a cat eating a fish from a sailor.

“Because it’s cute?”

“Hung.”

“He’s cuter.”

“… ….”

“If you want to see something cute, look in the mirror…” . Town.”

Elijah blocked his shameless chatter with her lips.

After a while, I carefully removed it.

Then she turned her head to hide her red face.

“… Joy.”

“It’s cute.”

Elijah didn’t answer and started waddling again.

“I want to see the dogs. “It’s been a long time since I saw you.”

“Okay. “When I go back, I’m sure he’ll have grown a lot in the time I haven’t seen him.”

“Are you doing well?”

“My mother-in-law sees the kids often, so it will be okay. “There’s also Bradley and May.”

“Wow. I guess so. “I want to see Yuel too.”

“When I get back, I’ll have to hang out in the barn for a while.”

As we talked about various things like that, we walked to the port where the Hosea was anchored.

“Ah, Your Majesty….”

I ran into Gabriel who was doing maintenance.

Only then did Elijah realize.

The way he behaved while walking all the way here was not at all beneficial to his dignity as an emperor.

“… ….”

Elijah was frozen in place, gradually turning red.

Meanwhile, Judah, who was not particularly concerned about her dignity, was unconcerned.

It’s a little bit embarrassing.

Gabriel was embarrassed, but he understood the feelings of the two.

He also got married.

This happens to everyone when they are newlyweds.

We can’t live or die because we like each other.

Meaning: Still, there is really no time to try.

It has no choice but to be like that, it’s the best of times. I think we should enjoy that period at a young age.

She also received word from Galahad in advance.

Please be aware that the love behavior of the emperor and his wife may be special.

He tried to comfort me by saying that it was possible, but ended up trying.

It seemed like it would be a loss of face for the younger emperor.

He decided to just pretend not to know.

“Good morning, Your Majesty. “Did you manage to overcome your illness?”

“Hmm, well.”

Elijah tried to speak calmly.

She quickly got back to the main topic she came here for.

“What is the status of supply transport?”

“We have shipped all cargo since we docked yesterday evening. We are currently loading supplies to take back when we return. “No items deteriorated during transportation.”

“Yes, it is stable. “In the future, supply should proceed without problems like today.”

“I will keep this in mind.”

“There is no need for me to board the ship that returns to port. “Is there anything else that needs my permission or confirmation?”

“We have brought most of the supplies that meet our needs, but we need additional stone and wood.”

“Stone and wood?”

“Yes. Because monster intrusions are frequent, a lot of work is being spent on repairing the walls. Accordingly, they say there is not enough material to build a building inside the wall.”

“Tell them to survey the required quantity, organize it, and put it on the agenda. Hmm…. “There are frequent monster invasions.”

Elijah looked east, inland.

She sees a castle wall built high up connecting the cliff.

To head inland from the Beersheba Peninsula, you must pass through a canyon-like road.

Mountains stretching from left and right, and a road in the middle.

The castle wall was built by continuing the mountain range.

It is true that the terrain is advantageous for defense and it is easy, but it does not change the fact that this is the center of the demon world.

It is an isolated place that still has a long way to go before the imperial army from the south can move north to provide support.

‘In the past, when we were settling down, we swept the entire area once, but it wasn’t enough.’

Elijah was looking at the wall and asked Judah.

“Can I come by for a moment?”

“Your Majesty is trying to look down on you, so how can I stop you?”

Judas said jokingly for no reason.

We have to go together wherever we go, and I’m afraid she’ll feel sorry for taking up her time with something like this.

She is Elijah, who only wants to hang out with Judah one day after taking care of all the busy work, but she has never been negligent in her duties of taking care of the empire.

She always tries and worries to do her best as the emperor.

Yuda really likes and respects that about her.

‘… Well, today I waddled like a penguin, which is unbecoming of an emperor, but I guess that’s because of me.’

And although her waddling around failed to maintain her conduct as an emperor, it did not mean that she neglected her work.

… Although maintaining her dignity is also important to those in power.

“Thank you.”

Elijah laughed lightly and told Gabriel.

“Are there any soldiers out on patrol or scouting right now?”

“Everyone returned in the morning.”

“Okay. “I’ll take a look around and come back, so tell no one to come out.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Gabriel bowed his waist in sincere joy.

Elijah, the strongest force possessed by mankind.

Her power cannot be expressed in any other numbers.

It’s just overwhelming.

If she stirs up the entire area, the Beersheba Peninsula will become relaxed for a few days.

Elijah immediately grabbed Judah’s hand and used her teleportation.

Judah’s mind suddenly became dizzy as her vision changed.

The port city that was just standing there has moved far away.

Even though I already knew about this teleportation, it surprises me every time I realize it.

Plus, the height makes people look small.

The empty space outside the castle walls.

I am afraid that I might fall.

Of course, Elijah is supporting her with hovering magic, and she does not doubt her magic skills.

Regardless of that belief, the fear of heights was an instinct.

“Are you scared?”

Elijah asked with a chuckle.

“… Little. “Not a lot, really a little.”

It doesn’t seem like that at all, but he’s secretly very scared.

Especially ghosts.

This was an area that was somewhat difficult for Elijah, who did not have the same type of phobia, to understand.

It’s been a while since he went to battle, but the sight of him on the battlefield and slaughtering the enemy is something that many knights and mercenaries look up to or are in awe of.

His activities are close to fear among those who live with swords.

I can’t believe he’s scared of this situation.

I don’t know why, but she was lovely anyway, so Elijah thought anything was okay. She doesn’t understand, but she doesn’t have to understand everything before she can love him.

He just needs to be embraced and cherished.

Judah sneaked behind her and hugged her waist.

“Are you comfortable now?”

“Hmm. “It’s very stable.”

The waist is thin, and the stomach is elastic and soft.

Judas was at ease with the touch.

Elijah lifted her hand up and stroked his head.

“I’ll sort it out quickly, so hold on tight.”

“Yes.”

As she moved, she felt the strength around her waist grow stronger and she laughed lightly.

Though he said so, Elijah slowly floated around in the sky.

The mountain range extending northwest/southeast around the canyon leading to the Beersheba Peninsula runs along the coastline.

The inland area gradually becomes gentler and a grassland area appears.

A somewhat desolate plain with distinct rainy and dry seasons.

‘It seems that monster invasions are more frequent than I expected…. I understand why. Here and now, it’s a serious dry spell. When food and water became scarce, they attempted to invade human lands.’

The field of dry yellow grass stretches far into the distance.

Vegetation with green leaves is rare.

Oasis is also quite rare.

‘There are two types of monsters that appear to be a threat. ‘Three-horned buffalo, yellow goblin.’

A large water buffalo with three horns each, and a goblin with skin as yellow as sand.

These are species that do not coexist, but do not fight with each other without special reasons.

‘If we just deal with the things we see in this plain right now, we’ll be safe for a while.’

Goblins generally gathered in oases or in the shade of vegetation to form villages, and herds of buffalo gathered around traces of rivers.

‘Damage to nature must be minimized. Because it is not an ecosystem that only uses monsters. In that case, fire or lightning series are excluded. Water and ice…. I’m excluding it because I don’t know what impact it will have on this area during the dry season. Then, into the rock and tree series.’

Thinking like that, Elijah prepared a spell.

Her Judah, who held her, slowly looked around her.

A height that looks beyond the horizon.

The wide open field of view is close to that of a bird.

This is a scene that can only be seen when you are with Elijah.

She often goes out to the field in person.

He never does anything roughly and is always sincere and serious.

Judas sometimes wondered why Elijah was so faithful.

The key to conquering the devil is Elijah, both strategically and tactically.

Elijah also knows that fact.

No matter how much she does, she doesn’t think it’s easy to be sincere like Elijah.

Sometimes you can postpone it by having a subordinate do it.

Considering her inviolable status, no one can criticize her even if she is lazy.

Even if you rest, only rest as much as necessary.

She is mechanically sincere in taking care of the empire and conquering the demon world.

‘To be with me… is it.’

I want to find some free time as soon as possible and devote as much time as possible to Judah.

Even Judah knows that feeling.

Even if her position had changed, it seems that Judah would have acted in the same way.

But, could she have lived as sincerely as Elijah, generously and efficiently in all areas of rest, government affairs, and love?

I don’t know.

She said she was not as intelligent or scheming as Elijah.

I was just curious.

Elijah’s world.

Elijah’s perspective on the world.

In particular, she still kept the hated Bevel surname, and she wondered why she had given that surname to herself as well.

It wasn’t that she didn’t like it, it was pure curiosity.

This is also why she so faithfully takes care of her empire, named after her.

She wanted to see a world like Elijah.

She knows a lot about Elijah, but there are still many things she doesn’t know.

Trees and vines that rose up everywhere whipped or tore the monsters, and rocks crushed them.

It took less than a few seconds for the monsters that could threaten Beersheba to be eliminated.

The way back through the sky.

Judas said.

“Ellie.”

“Wow. Do you have anything to say? Or is there something you want to ask?”

“… How did you know?”

It’s nothing special, I was just curious about Elijah’s thoughts.

How do you view this world?

So she tried to ask, but Elijah answered as if he already knew.

“I just know everything. “Anything about you.”

“… ….”

“To give you a little more detail, I took note of your slightly subdued and stiff voice and way of speaking, unlike usual, the stiffness felt in your arms, the change in your breathing when touching your head, etc.”

“I don’t think it would be easy to refer to something like that….”

Elijah spoke next in a slightly sulky tone.

“Also, even though it’s been a while since you would normally kiss me, you keep quiet and don’t know what you’re thinking.”

Judas laughed without realizing it.

Then she licked both of her cheeks as if she was going to suck them.

Elijah laughed because he was happy that her cheeks were stretched out.

She kissed her lips deeply one last time.

“Are you satisfied now?”

“Hmm. Although I want something a little more intense….”

“… ….”

“That’s a little later. “Unfortunately, now is the time to endure.”

Elijah touched Judah’s hand.

“There was a place I wanted to go, so I thought it would be appropriate to go there and say what I wanted to say.”

“Where do you want to go?”

“Wow. “There’s a place that suddenly came to mind while looking at the sea.”

Anything. Judah agreed, saying it didn’t matter.

Elijah returned to Beersheba and told Gabrielle that she had eliminated the demons in her area, and then she left.

The place she used as her teleport to take Judas was another sea.

A coastal area with a sandy beach next to the coastal cliff.

“Did you want to come here?”

“Wow. More precisely….”

Elijah pointed her finger toward the sea.

Then, something unbelievable happened to her.

“… ….”

The sea began to split on both sides.

In the very center of the constantly flowing sea, a long road leading to the horizon was opened.

The seawater split all the way to the end, soon revealing the bottom.

“I’m curious about the bottom of the sea.”

“… ….”

“And I want to see the aquarium that I saw in Judah’s memory here too. “This was the only way to achieve something similar.”

“… ….”

Looking at Judah who was dazed, Elijah spoke like a child.

She smiled so innocently, as if she was about to have an insignificant picnic, and she led his hand.

“Let’s go quickly.”

A sea cliff cut at a right angle.

There is enough room for two carriages.

Seeing Elijah smiling as if nothing had happened even after achieving her miracle, Judah also laughed.

What if you like it?

“Okay, let’s go.”

So, I went for a walk along the seaside.
