066. Matteo (3)

“Will the wound… heal quickly…?”

Rachel tilted her head. There was no external injury, so she thought she knew what kind of wound he was talking about. However, it was strange to think that there was a way to treat this problem. She just hoped that time would solve it. She felt ashamed of the ‘things’ she had done to him while her body was controlling her mind. She just wished that they would not be seen in front of her right now.

Icarone took out the dagger from under Rachel’s bed and continued speaking.

“Then let’s begin.”

“Ugh, ugh, euh-eup!”

Matteo was gagged and couldn’t say anything even though he saw the dagger in front of him. He just struggled. At that moment, Icarone cut the rope that had tied his wrists behind him. Rachel couldn’t imagine what he was going to do. He didn’t have the strength to do anything or say anything, so he just stayed still. Matteo also had a sullen expression and stayed still even though his hands were free.

At that moment, Icarone grabbed his hand, lifted it up, and drew her dagger.

-Thud thud.

“Whoa!”

“Ugh!”

It was a split second before both wrists were cut in half. It was as natural as picking up a side dish and eating it. When Matteo saw his tattered hands and screamed in frustration, Icarone looked at Rachel in shock and continued speaking.

“There is no hand to give you medicine now.”

What does this mean? Is this the way to heal wounds? Leaving Rachel behind, who was shocked and confused, Icarone lifted Matteo’s feet.

“Ugh! Ugh! Ugh-uh-uh-uh-uh!”

Matteo struggled madly at his sudden action, but he couldn’t move at all, as if he were tied to a tree. Icarone, with the same expression as before, placed the dagger just above his heel.

-Push.

Then he calmly lifted his other foot and drew it.

“Ugh!”

Blood flowed out like a fountain, soaking the floor. Rachel was so shocked by the scene that she couldn’t take her eyes off of it. Now, she heard Icarone’s voice, which made Rachel feel afraid.

“I have no more force to use against you.”

Before he knew it, Matteo’s blood had spread widely on the floor. Icarone walked through it and came to the center to face Matteo.

“finally…….”

“Ugh, ugh…….”

Matteo’s eyes were wide open. He was already out of his mind, seeing only the whites of his eyes. His lower body was stained with something other than blood due to the unbearable fear. Icarone, whose expression did not change, raised his dagger toward the sky.

-Phew.

“Uuuuuuuu!”

Blood was seeping out between Matteo’s legs, which were not visible due to Icarone’s back. Based on his behavior so far, it seemed like he knew where he had stabbed him.

“Now he can’t hold any woman.”

Icarone pulled out the dagger stuck in the chair, swiped it on Matteo’s clothes, and threw it near Rachel’s bed.

Rachel couldn’t understand why he was doing this to her. She was just scared. She was shocked. She just wanted to get out of this situation. Rachel buried her face between her knees and stretched one hand toward the door, shouting in pain.

“Stop, stop…… Please get out……”

Icarone felt her voice tremble. After standing for a moment and looking at her, Icarone turned his head and grabbed the back of Matteo’s neck.

-Squeak squeak.

Mateo was dragged out with a chair, and Lorey came running in right after.

“Oh, Miss!”

“Lorey…… Ugh!”

Only when Rachel reached Lorey’s arms did she burst into tears, free from the terror and fear that seemed to cut through her flesh.

-Quazik!

Mateo, who was thrown in front of the mansion along with the chair, struggled without being able to control his hands and feet properly.

“Uh, uh uh…….”

“If you’re lucky and get treatment quickly, you can live. Consider it a stroke of luck that you’re in front of that child. Thanks to that, your head is still attached.”

With those words, Icarone turned around. At that moment, Matteo’s voice, struggling to say a word, was heard.

“S, save me…….”

Icarone’s steps stopped. Then he turned around and looked at Matteo.

“This, this grace…….”

-Shoot.

“Khaaaaak!”

Matteo screamed for the mansion to leave as he looked at the cleanly cut cross-section of his right shoulder. Icarone, who had put away his sword without knowing when, walked back to the mansion and spoke quietly.

But strangely enough, his voice struck my ear as if he was speaking right next to me.

“There’s an interesting treatment here, one that perfectly restores the tendon. Give this arm to the dogs.”

Mateo looked at his back with a blank expression, blood still flowing out like a fountain, surprisingly wondering how much was left.

* * *

The wind blowing through the window was warm. The sky was cloudless, as if a blue curtain was fluttering.

Rachel pushed her fluttering side hair behind her ear and looked at one place again. At the end of her gaze was Icarone, who had one hand in his pocket and was swinging his sword carelessly. Now, she was curious and even mysterious about what that action meant.

When I think back to that time, I feel so sorry and thankful that I want to hide in a mouse hole. Strangely, I don’t want to remember that time, but I’m not scared. Is it because I realized that ‘that guy’ won’t do something like that again? Or is it because I saw the brutal punishment with my own eyes? Anyway, the important thing is that his ‘wound treatment’ is definitely effective.

Rachel’s eyes turned towards him gently.

At the same time, there was a woman looking at Icarone with a different gaze. She was none other than the female warrior Seremyan, who had served as a knight in Leondga for the longest time after Marvin. Her eyes looking at Icarone were serious and heavy. The events of last night came to mind.

“Lorey, why are you here?”

Seremiyan, who had gone to the temple yesterday to get holy water at Mateo’s request, asked. It was because Lorey was having dinner with Rachel by now. It had been quite some time since he had asked her to share a meal with him, saying he did not want to eat alone.

Lorey continued to speak with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“I…… That’s because Mateo said he would bring it……”

“Oh, really?”

The moment I thought, “Is that Mateo who said he was sick?” the mercenary man who had gone to the temple with me walked over.

“Huh? Where are you going…?”

He trailed off as he watched him far away, his strides wide and his pace quick. Sensing an ominous atmosphere in his strides, Seremyan immediately followed him and spoke.

“Lorey, you stay here for now. Don’t follow me.”

The sense of a dozen years of knighthood told him that there would be something that would require protection from ordinary people. Seremyan ran without even listening to Lorey’s answer. He headed to the young lady’s room. Before she could shout anything, the sound of the door breaking was heard.

-Snap!

His new body, which had broken through the door roughly, disappeared.

-thud!

And almost at the same time, there was a dull thud as something fell on the wooden floor. Seremyan hurriedly ran to check the young lady’s room.

“This… this is….”

An unimaginable sight unfolded. Mateo, naked except for his lower body, was lying head down on the wooden floor, and Miss Rachel, almost naked, was staggering on the bed. The mercenary man, who had been looking at Mateo with indifferent eyes, turned his gaze back to himself.

Then he raised one hand and waved his index finger once. He didn’t know if it meant to close the door or to get out, but he felt he couldn’t dare refuse. Seremyan followed his instincts. His actions were good, but he felt like he was mercilessly removing obstacles. It was closer to the lesser of two evils than good… … .

After another loud thud, quite a while passed. It wasn’t hard to guess what was going on just from the brief moment of sight.

After that, I was curious about what was going on inside, but what could I do with a man who knocked out Mateo, who was stronger than me, with a single blow? Besides, it was clear that he had gone in so hastily to save the girl.

After calming down Lorey, who came later, we waited together for about an hour. Suddenly, the girl’s scream was heard. Regardless of whether I was weak or whether he had ordered me to do so, I instinctively opened the door.

-thud!

“Ugh……ugh.”

In front of me, Mateo was tied to a chair, blood gushing from his wrists. The girl was safe. What could he do? Then his voice was heard.

“There is no hand to give you medicine now.”

He could guess what he was going to do. Should he stop him? No, could he stop him? Seremyan just watched with blank eyes, then quietly closed the door, stopping Lorey from sticking his face out.

* * *

He spends his time swinging his sword around like he always does, as if nothing is wrong. At night, he keeps disappearing somewhere. Marvin said that he seems to be going to a dungeon.

‘With a certain level of skill, you can subdue Mateo, who is welcomed even by large guilds, in one go. He’s a bigger player than you think.’

Seremiyan feels the anticipation that had sunk to the floor rise up little by little as he looks at him. Although he doesn’t express it because of his usually blunt personality, as a knight who spent the glorious days of the Leond family, he is more eager than anyone else for the Duke family to rise again. Although he doesn’t have the ability, he can only stay by their side… … .

Requil, who had been practicing swordsmanship nearby, is seen wiping off the sweat and approaching Icarone. Unlike when he was swinging his sword, his gait was rough and did not seem like he was approaching with goodwill.

“Mercenary, how long are you going to insult the sword like that? If you don’t know swordsmanship, ask me. I’m willing to teach you some proper swordsmanship, not that cheap mercenary swordsmanship. Well, let’s call it a favor to commemorate my brief stay at the Grand Duke’s house.”

At that moment, Icarone, who was swinging her sword, changed the direction of her foot and the sword swung over Requil’s head. The action was so playful and smooth that no one thought of stopping it.

‘Oh, no!’

Seremiyan’s eyes widened and he quickly ran towards Rekil. He is not good, but evil. He is the lesser evil, the one who chooses to avoid the worst. He does not hesitate to get rid of the young knight who is nagging!

“Huh!”

Requil realized what was happening to him too late, so he closed his eyes, raised his sword with both hands, and flinched. However, after a while, when his sword did not touch anything, he looked up with squinted eyes.

The black one stopped just an inch in front of his own sword.
