There Was a Porter Who Would One Day Be Called a Prophet - There Was a Porter Who Would One Day Be Called a Prophet chapter 218

218 – The Trustworthy Fraudster

Someone said. It’s okay to go through hardships while young.

At first glance, it seemed like something someone who had overcome adversity in life would say, but if there was someone in front of him who said something like that, he wanted to beat it up.

-Kyuut! Wow!

Kyundoli, who was almost hit by a passing horse, swore at the carriage that was slowly disappearing in the distance. Of course, it ended up being a silent outcry.

-Kyuu….

Kyundoli realized that his situation was quite miserable.

The soft body, which boasted light green curves, had turned yellow from bouncing around on the dirt ground, and the two fresh leaves blooming on the head were reminiscent of vegetables freshly picked from the field due to the dust sticking to them. Because I did it.

-Kyuuu….

A cat suddenly became depressed at the fact that the proud leaves that its owner had carefully cared for had become dirty.

For Kkyundoli, leaves were an important matter. It is safe to view the precisely symmetrical and shiny leaves as a measure of how much love it received from its owner.

How did I end up thrown into this dangerous world alone?

It was no use regretting it now. Even though he wasn’t the one who spoke up, it was his own choice to accept the offer.

-I’ll just ask you one favor!

The sight of the owner kneeling down and praying with his hands down to his feet made me feel weak.

I wasn’t very happy with the way he was trying to separate me, but I ended up accepting it because I was so taken by the atmosphere that the master-slave relationship seemed to have been reversed.

What the owner asked was to convey his plan to his colleagues.

The accommodation where the party members are staying is a short distance, less than 1km from the castle. However, for Kkyundori, whose average height fluctuates between 4 and 5 cm, it was a long distance, comparable to a long journey across the country.

I haven’t had any complaints since I was always able to cling to my master’s shoulder, but at this moment, I couldn’t be more envious of my sisters and brothers who were flying around.

After covering his entire body with a lot of dust for two full days, he finally arrived at the lodgings where the warrior party was staying.

-Kyuuu… !

The sense of accomplishment that he had accomplished something on his own for the first time filled his round body.

-Kkeunddol, you are truly the best! How proud I am to have a spirit like you!

I can already see the owner taking care of me. No, this is not at a level that can be criticized.

-Where can I go, leaving you like this? After killing the devil, let’s go to a place with good water, good air, and lots of sunlight and live alone.

-Kyuuu~!

Perhaps it was because it took after its owner, and its skill at breaking water was excellent.

But the young spirit still had a hurdle to overcome.

-Kyu… ?

Obstacles that I had not noticed in my happiness finally began to come into view.

That is the entrance to the inn. To some, it may be just an ordinary door, but to Kyuendori, it seemed like a heavy castle gate.

She wanted to inflate her body and use physical force, but she couldn’t because Ian wasn’t by her side. Because he was still young, he didn’t know how to use his power properly, so he had to draw power from Ian.

Even though it is called the bud of the world tree, it is literally a bud. Without Ian by his side, he is just a scented spirit.

-Kyuu….

That time when I was fidgeting and stomping my non-existent feet.

-A rattle.

With a clear chime sound, the door that had been firmly held opened as if it were a lie.

“Is there nothing to do here? Should we just go back to Tuscania instead of doing this?”

“But the price is a bit expensive there….”

“But it’s better than just sitting here with nothing to do.”

-Kyuut!

When the guests who came to the inn opened the door and came out, Kkuundori took advantage of that moment and succeeded in entering without blood.

After running up and down the stairs that seemed dozens of times longer than his body, he managed to reach the door where the warrior party was staying.

If you make a fuss in front of the door, Raina clears her throat and says she will open it, but a strange sound comes from inside.

-Why are you doing this to me?

It was the first time I heard a woman’s voice. She wondered if she had moved her lodgings in the meantime, but the elf’s forest energy was clearly flowing from the room.

Slap.

Deciding to figure out the situation first, Kyo Dori pressed her soft body against the door and listened to the sounds coming from inside.

***

“Elizabeth Fleur Anemone.”

A dry voice without any emotion.

In front of the warrior with a cold expression, a woman with beautifully grown red hair was tied to a chair, and party members were surrounding her.

-Kkiyi.

The warrior dragged one of her chairs and placed it in front of the woman and sat down on it.

“I understand you are participating in the Saldena royal engagement ceremony tomorrow.”

“What does that have to do with my being captured? More than that, you are a hero! Why did you do something like this…!”

Sigh.

Seeing the woman speaking as if she was being unfairly treated, the warrior took something from her arms and stared at her. As if she had something to say, say it.

The rectangular postcard had an inscription inviting you to the engagement ceremony of the next princess.

“Well, what’s wrong with that? Isn’t it natural for a noble to respond to an invitation from the royal family?”

-Wow.

Then the holy sword vibrated slightly and emitted light, and the warrior who confirmed this opened his mouth.

“There is a force that is as sensitive to the national situation as the ruler who rules the country. That is nobles like you.”

Despite her self-doubting remarks, the woman did not blink an eye.

“The empire seems to have a deep rift between the imperial family and the nobility, right? I can guess it from the fact that so much meaning is attached to these kind of congratulations and condolences.”

But the warrior was not one to miss the fact that the woman’s breathing pattern had changed slightly.

“Rumors must have already spread among the nobles that the West is preparing for war with the empire. An engagement ceremony held in such a situation would not simply be a celebration. That is why in most cases, only the head of the family and the eldest son attend. .”

He continued what he had just said as if he didn’t even feel the need to respond.

“I understand up to this point. There are wise people who do not go, but there are definitely people who have no choice but to follow or who do not like the king’s decision and go to argue with him.”

She showed her flexibility by saying that it could be possible.

However, the woman could not help but swallow her saliva as she spoke immediately after that.

“But among the children of a noble family, you were the only woman who expressed her intention to participate. You are trying to participate in an engagement ceremony that even the head of the family is not attending right now, so it is natural that you are suspicious of its purpose.”

A warrior who gets closer little by little to the truth she has hidden.

“This can clearly be seen as having participated in an act of treason against the empire. And it is my role as a warrior to judge such people.”

“….”

The cornered woman eventually closed her eyes and confessed honestly.

“…It was an opportunity. I thought I could get the king’s attention if I showed a proactive side while other young nobles were just watching.”

The sight of her biting her lip seems to have a story behind it.

“The head of the family I was in charge of was caught in a storm on the way back and was stranded…”

The moment when she was about to tell her inner circumstances that she had no choice but to be like this.

“I’m not curious at all, so keep your mouth shut. That was the purpose of the invitation in the first place, I don’t know your circumstances.”

“Such…”

Thalia left behind the woman with a somewhat hurt expression and opened her mouth, taking the invitation from her warrior’s hand.

“I’ll go, hero. It’s not that much different from that girl’s hair color.”

Talia claims ownership of the invitation, citing physical similarities.

It wasn’t wrong. Because that was the hero’s plan from the beginning.

Kidnap a person who is attending without her, steal the invitation, then disguise yourself as that person and steal the money from her.

However, the problem was that only one invitation was secured.

“But Thalia, you’re too tall for that…”

“If I wear high heels and cover it up with a skirt, they won’t notice, right?”

Then Reina said, looking at a specific part of her.

“You have to be sensible. Don’t you know that’s not what the hero meant?”

She spoke in a quite aggressive tone, perhaps because she was unable to speak due to her ears.

“What the hell?!”

“Stop giving up. None of the dresses the hero bought suited your size, so I had no choice but to buy children’s clothes. If you want to wear those, I won’t stop you.”

“Hey!!!”

“Then I’ll go. All you have to do is paint your hair red.”

Sonia takes advantage of the confusion to gain courage. In some ways, she had a body type that was somewhat similar to the woman who had kidnapped her. I guess you could say she’s a lucky anemone.

“Well, I don’t think that’s a very good idea.”

Aria spoke as if she was not pleased with her appearance.

“…Can I ask why?”

“As this is a gathering of nobles, a fairly high level of formality will be required. I don’t mean to disparage your origins, but if you continue in that state, your behavior will surely raise suspicion.”

“I’ll learn as I go. Isn’t that okay?”

Then Aria sighed and spoke as if admonishing her.

“Let me give you an example. If the head of the family and the eldest son are together, who should they greet first?”

“Of course, it goes to the superior, the head of the family, first…”

“You’re wrong. You should have done it with your eldest son first.”

“Why? Isn’t it rude to ask my son to greet me first while leaving me alone?”

“It is the etiquette advocated by nobles to first greet the person below them and then greet the person higher than them. But that also depends on the situation. Some people attend to announce the change in the head of the family. In that case, on the contrary, you should bow to the head of the family first.”

Sonia looks like she doesn’t understand what’s going on.

“Why is it so complicated?”

“What can they do when they believe that such complicated things come together to express their dignity? Even the imperial family does not do that.”

Aria, who sharply pointed out the actual situation of the nobles, continued to say that there was nothing she could do.

“I don’t really feel like it, but I’ll take care of getting him out.”

She is the one who goes on and on about how annoying people are.

“But you don’t know all the etiquette of women either.”

“That’s true, but…”

However, since she lived as a man, she was troubled by the fact that she had only seen a few of the etiquette of female nobles.

Now there is only one person left.

“Over there…”

The saint, who was only observing, timidly raised her hand.

“My hair happens to be white, so I wonder if the color will fade…”

A saintess who speaks logically.

But she didn’t notice it for no reason.

“Are you more famous than the warriors here?”

Raina immediately stops her.

Reina had a point. In the West, where the Holy Kingdom is located, her status is sky-high. That’s why even before she boarded the ship, she covered her face like Chloe.

“Above all, saintess, you are too big. No matter how much you hide her face, where on earth are you going to hide something as big as a watermelon?”

“Water, watermelon…! Such vulgar words…”

“Honestly, I find it fascinating, so sometimes I just stare at it in fascination…”

“Sister Sonia….”

“Plus, most of them are men, so wherever they go they will attract attention.”

“Now even the princess….”

Everyone unanimously tried to stop her, saying that the saint should not do it.

A situation where each person has one reason for disqualification.

In frustration, the hero looked at Thalia and asked.

“Talia. Is there anything special to say there?”

“It’s the same as the day before. I still hear nothing but noise.”

Talia seemed suspicious enough to be sincere in her eavesdropping, but after Ian’s shocking statement, she could only hear a confused noise.

“Obviously the location is the same, but what happened…?”

At that time when I was getting annoyed by strange magic tools.

-Obviously the location is the same, but what happened…? .

Her voice came out of the gramophone.

“What is this…? Why is it like this all of a sudden?”

“What happened? Did you hear anything?”

“No, that’s because my voice comes out here.”

While Thalia tilted her head, saying that couldn’t be possible. Raina’s face became thoughtful.

“No way…”

Sensing something about her, Raina pulled the door to her room without any time to stop her.

-Kyuu….

The toy that was stuck to the door came right in with it.

“….”

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“…His spirit is here now.”

“What?!”

The spirit that should be with him is here. So you’re saying there’s no way to tell if he’s in danger.

“Talia!”

At the time when I was trying to get him out with transfer magic.

“Wait a minute. He’s telling me something.”

Thalia, who was chanting a spell, stopped after Rayna’s dissuasion.

“He sent me here. Salazar will definitely show up at the engagement ceremony to gain the support of the nobles, so please don’t miss that time….”

“Then this is all….”

Reina quietly nodded her head.

“It looks like this time too it was a good one. It was an opportunity that came so suddenly that it was hard to miss.”

The parties caught up in his obscenity each showed a reaction that did not know whether it was admiration or surprise.

“Is that timid kid really…? I heard that kings can’t move from what he says, so I thought he was just exaggerating…”

“…I was wondering why Abama cared about that guy so much, and I guess that’s why… I’m so glad he’s an ally.”

“That’s right! Would Ian have eyes for another girl besides Thalia? Just come back, I’ll hug you all day and not let you go!”

“I’m sorry, goddess… I fell into a delusion in an instant and ended up disobeying your words not to doubt… This is all because of my lack of faith…”

And that was not much different from being a hero.

If a fight breaks out on the street, he says everything he has to say and hides behind his back, but now he is ahead of everyone else. He apparently ran away from the capital because he felt unsafe. Why are you doing this again?

I don’t understand, but it’s not bad. I get really angry when he gets hurt, but once I know the truth, I know that he has done the most.

Is that why? When I came to my senses, I found myself leaning on him. How many times have I done this?

This is an opportunity he took risks to provide, so he can’t just sit still.

The warrior looked at his own tied up hair.

Orange hair that can be seen as red depending on the lighting.

When I turned my head, there was a dress hanging in a corner of the room that I had bought to fit each person’s size.

One, two, three, four, five.

A total of 6 dresses, including one that I bought in a fit of anger and later regretted.
