NOVEL NEXT chapter 2
2 – I get hurt too
After eating, I entered the room and asked Luna for some information.
“So it’s October 15th in the year 392 of the Imperial calendar?”
“Yes. Young master.”
‘There are only two days left…’
Two days later, Leila, who sneaks out of her mansion, is in danger of being kidnapped.
However, a man who happens to be in her place rescues Leila.
His name is Aline.
He has the talent of a sword master, the main character in the novel.
And Layla, who brings him home, is slapped by a madman.
‘That’s probably why he brought a commoner home.’
This idiot, who hates commoners to death, slaps Layla as well as her benefactor Aline.
And when Layla gets in her way to stop her benefactor, Layla gets even more angry and throws her fist at Layla’s stomach.
Allin couldn’t stand it and officially asked Rail to a duel.
This is because a commoner had to live in prison for the rest of his life if he tampered with an aristocrat.
Rail, who is usually confident in magic, accepts the duel with a grin when he sees Allin’s skinny body because he hasn’t eaten for several days.
‘I must have thought that I could easily defeat at least one commoner.’
However, no matter how talented Rail was in magic, it was impossible for Rail, who did not work hard, to defeat Aline, who had the talent of a sword master.
As expected, Rail never succeeds in attacking Aline and she is beaten like a dog.
According to the description in the novel, his face was so swollen that even his family couldn’t recognize him.
‘Oh, I’m already shaking.’
As she draws her face at the moment, Luna standing next to her carefully asks.
“Bocchan, are you feeling unwell?”
“No. Are you okay. Rather than that, go outside to think for a while.”
“Yes. All right.”
After saying a small hello, Luna went out to visit her.
“Wait.”
“Yes. Young master.”
I called back to Luna who was about to leave the door.
Then she asked me with a slightly worried face.
“Anything you want to say to me…?”
“Show me your hand.”
“Are you talking about the hand?”
“Uh. Hurry.”
Luna couldn’t understand what I was saying, but since it was my order, she was forced to put her hand in front of me. She
She said she had just joined as a maid, but her hands had calluses.
But when I checked her Luna’s hands, I wasn’t checking her calluses.
“There are no wounds.”
“Ah… Thank you a little while ago. Young master.”
I was checking to make sure I wasn’t hurt when I picked up the broken plate a while ago.
“All right. Go outside now.”
“Yes. If you need anything, please call me right away!”
Then, for some reason, she answered lively and left her room.
As Luna leaves her room and she is left alone, she is quiet and her head starts spinning.
She closed her eyes and pondered how I would live my life.
‘Can I continue to live like an idiot?’
No.
Euler, the current head of the B. Orland family, is a mess because of his naive personality, but he considers me, his eldest son, to be the next head of the family.
However, there are too many people around me who hate me for doing stupid things.
In fact, not long after the novel begins, Kyle, who has been taking over the position of head of household, hires an assassin to kill Rail.
That meant that if I stayed like this, I could die in the middle of the night without even realizing it.
There is only one thing I can do right now.
‘I have to find Aline first.’
You must be living on the street by now in the market not too far from the mansion.
Before Lila meets Aline two days later, I must enlist Aline on my side first.
If it is Allin with the talent of a sword master, he will be able to easily prevent an assassination.
I finished my thoughts and stood up. And I started looking for money to use in the market.
However, no matter how much I searched the room, there were only expensive ornaments, but no money.
Anyway, I think I spent all my money on the day this idiot fell drunk.
“Haa…”
Somehow I feel uneasy from the start.
*
“Are you asking for pocket money?”
“Yes. Father.”
If you don’t have money, you can get it.
Still, it’s a family with the second highest title after the duchy, so there’s no way they don’t have money.
Took.
And as if he had expected me to come to collect the money, Euler handed me a sack of coins from a drawer.
“I have been lying down for two weeks, so my body is itchy.”
“Thank you. Father.”
I bowed my head and left the room without even checking the money in the sack.
This is because the weight already held in the hand was not enough to be used in one day.
But when I left the room and checked the coins in the sack, I was taken aback.
The sack, which I thought would have been full of silver coins at best, was full of gold coins, not silver coins.
How many parents in the world would give their son a bag of gold coins to play outside?
‘How rich is the Violand family…?’
For some reason, the corner of his mouth kept going up.
I wasn’t really interested in the heir, but I thought for a moment that becoming the head of the Violand family wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Having a lot of money felt better than I thought.
“Le, Master Rail, I apologize, but there is no change to return gold coins at our store…”
Arriving at the market, I bought a rye bread from a nearby bakery.
Then he handed over a gold coin to the owner as a price.
But I said to the owner with a sinister smile.
“I don’t need change, so take it.”
“Yes?”
“Why? Don’t you want to receive it?”
“Oh no! Please visit again next time!”
Yes, this is the feeling.
The bakery owner is happy to receive a price that is 100 times the price of the basic bread.
It was quite fun for me to do Gap-Jil, not Gap-Jil.
It was as if the basic fare was given in a taxi, but I gave a 50,000 won bill and said, “I don’t need change.”
I was in a good mood when I saw it in movies or dramas, but when I actually did it, I don’t think the corner of my mouth would go down.
I was in the middle of looking around and trying to figure out what kind of money I was going to spend this time.
A young boy who looked like he was about to enter elementary school stood in front of me.
And with a trembling voice, carefully ask me.
“Do, boy. My younger siblings haven’t eaten for days. Could you give us some bread…”
I lowered my head a little further and saw a boy and a girl who looked younger than him.
Like the kid said, the ribs protruding through the torn clothes caught my eye as if I hadn’t eaten for several days.
“Oh! Even if there is no one to beg for, it must be to that person…”
I’ve been ignoring it for a while now, but I can hear a muffled noise at the sight of the kid and me.
‘If that’s the case, they’ll help first.’
I let out a deep sigh as I looked at the children who looked like they were about to collapse at any moment.
But this kid doesn’t know who I am?
“Hey, don’t you know who I am?”
“Oh, I know! Aren’t you Rail Violand Master…”
Seeing that he came to beg for me even though he knew the rumors about me, it seems that his life is really in jeopardy.
Gulp.
At that moment, the sound of swallowing came from behind the little boy.
Two young siblings salivating at the bread in my hands.
When I move the bread to the right, the eyes follow it to the right, and when I move it to the left, it immediately returns.
‘Huh.’
I never thought I’d beg this idiot for just one piece of bread.
Inwardly, I put my hand on the bread and tossed it in front of them.
The ground was dirty because of the dust, but it shouldn’t be a problem to eat because of the bag.
“Go, thank you!”
Then the little boy bent his waist 90 degrees to me with a bright voice and immediately picked up the bread I picked up.
“… Huh?”
And the kid, perplexed by the weight of the bread, which is heavier than expected, stares blankly at the bread.
I slowly opened the bag of bread, and there were quite a lot of gold coins filled under the bread.
Poof-
A boy with a surprised face looks at me.
“Why? Don’t you want to receive it too?”
“Oh no!”
I roughly brushed my hands off, and the little boy bowed down even more to greet me and didn’t straighten his back until I left.
As expected, the more money, the better.
I began to think happily about what kind of money I would spend next.
‘Wait. I didn’t come here just to do this.’
However, when I remembered the reason for visiting the market, I immediately regained my composure.
I came to the market to find Aline who will protect me from now on.
‘I’m sure he said he was resting in a dark alley or something.’
I turned my head and looked at the nearby alley where I couldn’t see the light.
Gulp.
I don’t know what will happen there.
But I knew what would happen if I didn’t find Aline within two days.
“Whoa…”
I let out a deep sigh and gathered my heart and moved my feet into the alley.
Jeobeok- Jeobeok-
How many minutes did it take?
I can’t even hear the noise of the noisy market, as if I’ve come quite deep.
‘Is today a joke?’
After all, I was about to give up today and go home, when I heard a woman screaming in front of me.
“Sa, save me!”
The young woman’s screams stopped me from returning.
And I immediately moved my feet to where the sound came from.
I don’t move because of a sense of justice to save the woman.
It was to meet Aline, who would appear after hearing the woman’s scream.
“Please anyone! Ugh!”
When we arrived at the scene of the crime, there were three men standing there covering the woman’s mouth.
I flinched, and as I pretended to be there, the guys’ eyes turned to me.
And I smiled at the fact that I was the only person around me, and pointed the knife at me.
“Ha ha ha!. A fearless guy looking for us alone… Uh? You bastard…!”
A third-class villain or a guy who used to speak lines that would be appropriate, stutters when he sees my face.
Even the bad guys who kidnap women seem to know my face.
The woman’s costume was made of a fairly high-quality fabric, but her outstanding beauty seems to be that of an aristocrat who entered the alley without knowing anything.
They know my identity and are hesitant. The woman looks like an aristocrat.
Thought that if I did well, even if Aline didn’t appear, there would be a situation that would benefit me, so I took a step towards where they were.
“Kyaaa!”
Then the woman suddenly starts screaming madly at me approaching me.
“·······.”
Still, I came to save him, but I couldn’t help but feel hurt when he reacted like that.
