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 232

232 – Chloe’s side story – The maid serves the cat – 2

A deep basement of a mansion where light does not reach.

A girl with her limbs bound was lying on the bed.

-Took.

“Ugh….”

As the melted candle wax fell on the girl’s abdomen, a faint moan escaped between her pursed lips.

-Wow!

Then, like lightning, her thick hand flew up and slapped her.

“Someone told you it was okay to make noise.”

“Je, Jeseongham, Jeseonghammi…!”

The girl only repeated in a slurred tone of apology to the man who hit her.

She is a girl whose cheeks are so swollen that she must have been hit so many times that she can’t even put a proper apology into her mouth.

“I really can’t use it.”

The man muttered as if the atmosphere had cooled down and opened his mouth to the butler next to him.

“Call him.”

“Yes, master.”

Not long after, the butler returned with a woman whose body was covered in wounds.

“Uh, sister….”

A girl who looked like she was about to burst into tears when she realized what was going on.

“It’s okay. I’ll take care of this.”

The woman smiled slightly at the girl and took the place where the girl had been just moments before.

“After all, there is nothing like you.”

The man smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the scars on her body.

“Take it off.”

“….”

The woman took off her clothes and lay down on her bed with an expressionless face.

“You won’t be able to get through with just anything, so it won’t matter if you go strong right away.”

Before I knew it, the man had a whip in his hand.

A terrible tool with a torn end, made only to inflict pain.

When the woman saw her man’s hand moving higher and higher, she curled her tongue inside her mouth to avoid chewing.

He said it would be better for him to get hit than for his younger siblings, who would burst out in pain if they got hit.

After a while. In the basement, the sound of something being struck rang out one after another.

***

At that time, on the roof of a tall mansion.

“Wow~! You can see everything at a glance from here!

The bitter night wind scratched the faces of the two women.

“….”

Unlike Chloe, who was so excited, Gloria’s expression didn’t look so good.

‘I thought it was definitely a night service…’ .’

She, who thought she was going to have a body-to-body conversation, thoroughly studied both her offense and defense and knocked on her master’s door in her underwear.

-Are you going to go out dressed like that? It must be very cold outside.

But aren’t you suddenly talking about going out at night?

For a moment, I thought that maybe he had a maniac taste for outdoor play.

-Look at that! There are a lot of clouds in the sky! Perfect weather for stealing, right?

Until I heard the master’s grand plan.

Of course, it was something to do at night. Because it is not wrong to serve with your body.

-Well, I don’t really understand what you’re saying….

-Didn’t you know? Chloe is the second greatest thief in the world!

I can still see the way he put his arms around her waist while pushing out her chest and making an ahem sound as if he was proud of her.

-Is that so…? . But why the second time… ?

-That’s because the greatest thief is Master!

As the master said this, he twisted his body and drew a heart with his tail.

First of all, I understand that the teacher stole the master’s heart.

From what I heard from the owner, after rescuing me from being captured by thieves, he showed me various worlds and taught me.

Then one day. He suddenly disappeared, leaving only a letter saying he would return.

‘Definitely. ‘If you’re such a romantic person, it’s understandable that your master is like that.’

It is said that the reason he left his master behind was because he was worried about being exposed to danger.

Of course, anyone who knew Ian personally would never have made such an assessment.

Still, if you look at his actions in isolation, it was an achievement that would have made an adult go away, so it wasn’t that strange for her to think that way, even though she didn’t know him.

-But what does that have to do with stealing?

-Master said that the ideal thief would be to roam all over the rooftops, stealing bad guys’ property with the moonlight in the background.

The master said that his weakness was the reason he was separated from his teacher and that he had to prove himself before returning.

The problem is that the method involves stealing from corrupt nobles throughout the capital.

‘Why are you so obsessed with being a thief? .’

The meaning of stealing is consistent, but I didn’t really understand why it was called theft.

If there’s something she’s missing, is that her teacher is Ian?

What could Ian have taught her as she cried out for romance alone in a chaotic world where there was no distinction between bandits and thieves?

-So! So what happened?

-I can’t call my father “Father” And my older brother “Brother,” So would you be able to live without being dissatisfied with the world? This nobility of trying to make up for one’s own shortcomings through the world is the mindset of a thief.

Starting with Hong Gil-dong, Lupine, Robin Hood, etc. The result of hitting people in the ears regardless of East or West. Chloe naturally assimilates with him and comes to envy the phantom thief’s signature type.

-Chloe did the same! My sisters and brothers told me not to act like I knew them, not only outside but also inside!

-As expected, you were born with the qualities of a phantom thief.

-Chloe doesn’t have a dick, does she?

-….

-Chloe, this is jingjiing… Master, let’s do that!

-Now, wait a minute… !

Of course, the process of getting there was very difficult.

After painstaking training, Chloe became imbued with his ideas.

“But why am I like this…?”

“That’s right, it’s said that a phantom thief always has an assistant with him! I heard that if you can’t do anything, you should bring popcorn. But what is popcorn?”

The story of a man wearing a bat costume who protects a city where crime continues as the repertoire runs out. Ian told me all the strange things.

Because of this, Gloria was in a difficult situation as she had to serve a master who was at the peak of her job satisfaction.

‘This is my first time doing something like this….’

It is clear that she came here as a maid, but how did she end up becoming a criminal?

Although she was a little anxious, she repeated that she could do it if she put her educational experience to good use.

“Anyway, are you okay with that?…”

She gave a hint of concern when she saw Chloe wearing a small mask that barely covered her eyes.

“I cover up everything when I go out anyway, so it doesn’t matter, right?”

He eventually gave up on his owner’s will to steal, even giving up his daily life.

“…So which noble’s mansion are you targeting?”

“It’s right over there!”

As I followed the dainty outstretched fingers, a mansion came into view.

“Is that where a nobleman who is envied by the people lives?”

“Ugh. Not there. After that.”

Gloria looked at the place she had corrected and was astonished.

“Isn’t that the Marquis Lambert’s mansion?!”

Marquis Lambert. Among the corrupt nobles, he is famous for making a fuss.

Because it leaves no traces, even in the imperial palace, I heard people sighing as they wondered how they should handle this bastard.

“The author is dangerous! If you touch him incorrectly, not even a rat or a bird can disappear without you noticing!”

Gloria persistently tried to persuade her, but Chloe never gave in to her will.

“Master said that. You have to watch your opponent and attack him, but if you get screwed, there’s no such thing.”

“Still, there’s no reason to target him…”

Then Chloe opened her mouth, saying that there was a reason for everything.

“I did that the other day, Master, when I was passing by there. There was a time when there was a small misunderstanding and I was almost executed by imperial order, and at that time, one of the nobles who insisted on beheading me said that he lived there.”

How on earth can a small misunderstanding lead to Hwangmyeong?

While Gloria doubts the identity of her teacher. Chloe recalled her conversation with Ian.

-That bastard needs to be teased sometime.

-Why? Are the people who live there that bad?

-Of course. Because they tried to drive a good citizen like me to death.

After hearing those words, Chloe made a promise. If the opportunity arises, let’s punish him immediately.

Gloria let out a deep sigh at the sight of the owner muttering that he would clearly show her what the fear of starving to death was like.

“Ha… I can’t help it.”

In the end, Gloria gave up. She gathered her silver hair into a tight bun.

“Then, I, Gloria. I will do my best to protect my master’s side.”

If it is the master’s will, then the maid will simply follow that decision.

“Wait a minute, Gloria. Are you out of your mind?”

But Chloe pouts her lips as if she doesn’t like her.

“Any problem…”

“What if I use my real name? I need to clearly distinguish between myself as a phantom thief and my everyday self.”

Chloe expressed her beliefs, saying that only then can she be reborn as a true thief.

“I’m sorry….”

“So, can I say that I am the assistant of this Twilight Claw?”

“…Twilight Claws?”

“Yes! I thought about it for a few days and came up with it. What do you think? Isn’t it cool?”

Chloe waited for Gloria’s reaction with her eyes filled with anticipation.

‘The claws of twilight. A name that could be given to any monster….’

But it was clear that if she said something wrong here, her tail and ears would be broken again. As a maid, you cannot kill your master.

“Wow, you’re so cool! It’s a name that suits the owner who appears the moment the light fades!”

“That’s right! That’s right! You know something!”

In response to her answer, which added her own interpretation, Chloe ran around and hugged her.

“But do I really have to build one too…?”

“Of course! Let’s see, which one would be better…”

Gloria shivered slightly as Chloe lost herself in her thoughts.

Since she is the claw of twilight, I wonder if she is like the rose of dawn.

Still, she decided to accept it, whatever it was. Because it is the name of the activity given by the owner.

“How about Robin?”

However, contrary to expectations, a fairly normal name popped out.

“Robin?”

“Why? Don’t you like it? Then, Dawn…”

“No! I like it…! I like it so much! I was just asking because I was curious about what it meant!”

As she urgently nodded her head, Chloe explained the meaning of her name.

“Well, she heard that only Robin can bring popcorn. I don’t know what she is, but isn’t she really amazing?”

What on earth is popcorn that makes you do this?

“Good.”

From noble mtl dot com

Still, Gloria was willing to accept it, saying that it was 100 times better than a name starting with Dawn.

It was only a long time later that she found out about the identity of popcorn.
