The Villain Wants to Live Quietly - The Villain Wants to Live Quietly chapter 172

Special Chapter. Flowers bloom and bear fruit (3)

As time passed, the day came when Rebecca would leave the mansion again.

Anise was very sorry to part with her, but she hid her gloomy expression as much as possible, hoping that she would see her again someday.

‘As expected, the rate of increase is fast. Is it because you’re young?’

Rebecca, who was watching Anis’s swordsmanship for the last time today, sat in a sitting posture, resting her chin on her chin and making an interesting expression.

As was the case when Emilia was young, Anis was also very quick to learn.

The only difference is, Emilia is more like a sixth sense wave that the body acquires first, whereas Anis is more like a brain wave that understands it first with the head and puts it into action.

In other words, she was a girl with a very quick understanding and the tenacity to back it up.

In terms of talent, he wouldn’t be far behind Emilia.

Thanks to this, Rebecca had to fall into a strange sense of shame while teaching the two people one after another.

‘When I was young, I was at least half of those kids.’

Only then will the title of swordsman cry.

People call her a genius who will never be born again, but how surprised it would be to learn that there are two true geniuses in one family.

At least Emilia’s reputation was somewhat known, but I was looking forward to the time when Anise truly made her presence known to the world.

In the first place, since there are not many women who want to hold a sword, it will naturally become known.

“That’s enough. Let’s finish with this for today.”

Rebecca, who continued to think while watching Anis, clapped her hands a couple of times and announced the end of the class.

Originally, it should have been a bit longer, but today was the day she passed away, so there were a few things I had to do from packing up.

First and foremost, I had to thank Carol for generously serving me alcohol while I was living here.

Meanwhile, Anise wanted to stay with Rebecca a little longer, thinking that today was her last training session, but she regretted not being able to.

Of course, because she resembles her mother and doesn’t like to worry about others, she couldn’t show her feelings outwardly.

“ah… Sue, thank you for your hard work.”

“OK. You had a lot of trouble learning to the bone.”

“Oh, what a hardship. The teacher suffered more.”

Anis was wearing a uniform, so she couldn’t hold on to the hem of her dress, so she bowed her head and showed the utmost courtesy.

“Okay… ! It’s been too long anyway. I was only going to stay for a couple of weeks at most.”

Rebecca, who stretched and stood up from her seat, muttered to herself, bending her neck until it made a tapping sound.

The teaching period, which was originally scheduled for two to three weeks, has now passed by almost a month.

I don’t have a particularly busy schedule, but since I’m a person who doesn’t like staying in one place, it’s been a bit painful for me.

Of course, this life also had its own warmth and affection, so it wasn’t too bad.

‘It’s pretty nice to have a family.’

Apparently, it took quite a bit of time for her to start a family too late, and in the past, she couldn’t afford it, so she gave up on living with someone.

Deep down, I thought that she didn’t really need me.

However, staying with the Ipretz family this time and seeing the closeness of the family that the first student had built, he had mixed feelings.

Even if it’s not the desire to have a family, I think it’s not bad to have one.

‘Isn’t it a little bit of a calculation that has been achieved with this.’

Rebecca gently patted Anise’s hair as she approached her and smiled strangely.

As the old saying goes, disciples are like children and teachers are like parents.

Maybe that’s why, on the day of her wedding, she shed a tear, unlike the world’s swordsman.

Anyway, from that point of view, I wondered if Anise could be considered her granddaughter.

Even if they do not have a husband or children, the current situation of having a son-in-law and a granddaughter can be considered as having a decent family.

“Sir, why are you like that?”

“No, nothing. It’s because you’re so admirable that you followed me well.”

“Is that so? Ehehehe… … .”

A smile that was hard to see from Emilia and was naturally virtuous and a bit blunt.

Rebecca, who was staring at that smile, raised one corner of her mouth and slowly turned and left the gymnasium.

‘Why did I become sentimental?’

It’s only been a month or so, but it must be because the day of separation came after watching the kid who felt like a granddaughter all the time.

That was probably the moment in the life of the swordsman that would never happen again, neither in the past nor in the future.

As Rebecca always feels, whether the House of Eifretz or the House of Bayemurn, she is impatient for not being able to give her anything.

Of course, the reasons were quite different.

If the Bayemurn family wanted to repay her because of their gratitude to the teacher who taught their daughter, the Ipretz family, on the other hand, owed much to Carol’s existence.

“Thanks to you again, it was fun. Please visit us often.”

“I will.”

Among those who came out to see her off, Carol suddenly took a seat and asked Rebecca to shake her hand.

It was less when he was the head of household, but since he is basically a person who likes to drink and play, he got along very well with Rebecca.

Carol smiled with satisfaction as she took a drink as a gift to commemorate the meeting this time and put it on the carriage she was going to ride.

“Thank you for your always generous hospitality. Lady Diana.”

“I am really grateful that I played well with the noisy people outside. Please come anytime, Sir Rebecca.”

When a title that Ludwig would have said would have come out of Diana’s mouth, Rebecca just shook hands with a wry smile.

“Next time the opportunity arises, we will see you from our side.”

“done. What’s a good place to stop by?”

And while she was also greeting Ludwig, she expressed disapproval at Ludwig’s words that he would come to visit him when he decided on a place to stay for a while.

The place where she lived was usually not a place where guests could come, to say the least.

“Come on, Anise. I have to say hello to Master.”

“oh… Yeah!”

Finally, Rebecca said goodbye to the Aifrets mother and daughter.

For some reason, she silently looked at Anis, who stood in front of her with a slightly hesitant expression.

How many seconds had passed?

Anis, who was fiddling with her hands, looked up at Rebecca with her eyes carefully raised and asked a question.

It was as if he was confessing to someone he loved.

“there… Teacher, will you come again next time?”

“Well. I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like to be tied down… … .”

“I-I guess so… … ?”

It was as if the word sullen had popped into Anise’s head.

She knew from her mother that Rebecca didn’t like to stay in one place for too long, but she was asking because it was worth the bottom line… The results were as expected.

“Well then, would it be all right if I go see my parents and teachers next time?”

“As I said, it is not a place to welcome guests. There may be wild beasts walking around.”

“Hey… … .”

Anise, who had a chimney-like desire to promise a reunion with her, couldn’t help but cry out when everything was blocked.

Seeing that, Rebecca smiled and exchanged glances with Emilia, who was standing by Anis’ side.

nod

Eventually, Emilia, who understood her gaze, nodded slightly, and Rebecca smiled bitterly once again.

It was as if he was saying he had lost.

‘I can’t help it.’

Rebecca was surprisingly weak with children.

To be more precise, he was strict towards children who were rioting, but he was weak towards children who tried to pretend to be adults by holding back whatever he wanted.

The first representative of this type she faced was Emilia, and the second would probably be Anise.

Took.

Rebecca untied one of the small cords that held her hair up.

The long strands of her hair were coming loose and disheveled, but she didn’t care.

“ruler.”

“Yeah?”

Rebecca, who held out the string to Anis, encouraged her to accept it quickly, and Anis’ bright eyes opened even wider.

Rebecca did not give in to this and pushed the string even harder, this time recommending it with her mouth.

“Take it first.”

“Yes Yes… … !”

Anis nodded hurriedly and accepted the string. Rebecca confirmed this and turned away from her seat.

Then, pointing a finger at his drooping head, he threw a piece of advice at Anis.

“Did you see what I tied up earlier? After tying it with the same string, start practicing. Because it is easy to move.”

‘Come to check in two months.’ As she continued, Anis, who had been staring blankly at the hair tie, lifted her head belatedly.

two months.

The Sword Master, famous for his wanderlust, had promised.

Let’s meet again in two months.

“Yeah… ! Please come!”

Despite the fifteen-year-old girl’s pleas, Rebecca was moodless and didn’t even turn her head, wagging her hands and walking.

Promising the next meeting like that, the swordsman suddenly left this time as always.

But this time, with a little more left.
