chapter 19
I see your code (19)
“Class A?”
“Yes, it could be two.”
“Hmm… … .”
gulp.
I swallowed saliva inside.
Actually, there is no reason for Reynol and Darin to get involved in this. Although Rynol has been getting stronger lately, it hasn’t become an A grade. It is said that you should risk your life for something that is not profitable.
I couldn’t even explain the details. It’s not because I don’t trust the two, but because it’s very sensitive information, and I’m really short on what to say if I ask you how you know it.
By the way, I would not have been able to even talk about it if it was against someone else.
If it goes according to plan, there will be no problems, but if two people come, it will be difficult without the help of Reynol and Darin.
All I can do is pray that there are not two.
I looked at Reynol with a little nervousness, and he soon opened his mouth.
“okay. great.”
“… … What are you doing in the position you asked for, isn’t it too easy to accept?”
I was grateful and a little burdened by the reply that I was too nervous to help out so easily.
Why do you have such a good personality without taking measures?
“It wasn’t that easy to accept, Rihanna, I just trusted you.”
“What do you believe in me? Don’t trust people.”
“It doesn’t seem like they will ask for help without any measures… … .”
Rinol looked straight at me.
“Or it must be a problem that is so important to the world that it has to be dealt with without any measures.”
“What is that… … .”
In an instant, my hands and feet almost shrank.
I suddenly wondered if it was something grandiose, but when I thought about it, it wasn’t wrong. The life of the last princess of the Empire is not that important. And I don’t know what you misunderstand me, but I can understand that you think of me as something grandiose.
“I heard it, but… … yo. this.”
“Okay then. I’ll tell Darin. Did you say you still have time?”
“yes.”
“Then it would be better to learn some swordsmanship before that.”
Then he pulled out a wooden sword and threw it at me.
After grabbing the flying wooden sword, Reynol continued.
“It’s the swordsmanship of killing giants.”
“… … What’s your swordsman’s name?”
I know hundreds of swordsmanship in this game, but I’ve never heard of a swordsmanship with that name.
“It’s a swordsmanship that doesn’t have a specific name. This time I got it from the treasury.”
“At the treasury?”
“okay. I searched all the swordsmanship inside. Rihanna, I wonder if you have any swordsmanship that you can use.”
“It’s kind of impressive.”
Even though I was still on a schedule that should have been two bodies, did you mean that you were also looking into my swordsmanship?
What the hell is Darin handed over to someone like this… … .
“Actually, it’s closer to how to wield a sword rather than swordsmanship. It is almost the only swordsmanship that can be used without magical power.”
On Earth, such a thing is called swordsmanship.
“Actually, this doesn’t mean that you don’t need magical power because you have to strengthen your body… … , Rihanna, you don’t care.”
Rynol held up the sword and looked at me.
“I don’t know how much time is left, but until then, let’s learn.”
“yes.”
There’s nothing more to prepare anyway, and it’s better than just exercising.
* * *
“… … Why are you training there?”
“To change your mind?”
It has already been two weeks since I practiced swordsmanship.
It is not strange even if the opponent’s patience is slowly running out. If you’re attacked in the city, it’s over.
In short, it means that the time has come to move slowly.
If we fight anyway, it’s only natural for us to choose an advantageous battlefield. They’re definitely targeting Tanya, so they’re saying you have to take him… … .
“… … .”
You’ve been looking at me with a strange expression ever since.
You may feel disappointed, or you may feel like you have given up on something.
After a while, Tanya opened her mouth.
“Okay.”
Then he went into the room.
“… … .”
What is it really? I feel bad for nothing.
I thought for a while and then stopped. No big deal, how do I know what a teenage girl is thinking? As you know, I feel bad.
I’m sorry, but right now, preparing for the upcoming battle is more important than managing that guy’s mentality.
If everything goes according to plan, there’s no problem, but where in the world has something gone as planned?
For the past two weeks, should I train for swordsmanship, exercise, or prepare for any unforeseen circumstances? Did you have a schedule that was not enough even with three bodies?
I’ve done everything I can.
All that’s left is a thousand people. I can only leave it to the sky. Here, the sky means the God-given Kitan.
I looked up to the sky and prayed.
“Let’s do it.”
If you really don’t want to follow.
* * *
‘Let’s die.’
Tanya thought as she leaned against the door.
Going out to train is understandable. Because I heard about paid training camps. But why do you have to travel all day long with a training ground in your house?
also together.
‘There is nothing but the body.’
This is common in Layton.
Boys are dragged into dangerous things and lost their lives, and girls are dragged to the window and raised.
Wasn’t he deliberately decorating and hiding to avoid that?
Come to think of it, it was strange from the beginning.
Even though they were kicked out when they were young, they still have a sense of identity. To the extent that I know that I have to be more careful about hiding my face than anyone else.
himself was there
Because it was one of the few skills my godfather taught me.
In fact, no one knew that she was a woman.
‘I knew from the beginning that I was a woman.’
He had never received any support, so there was no way he would have noticed when his body touched him. It sounds like you knew it before you saved it.
Then the reason for helping her is explained.
The reason he gave me treatment and helped me with training was probably to get him to like me.
Whether you’re tired of your personality or your incompetence, you may have thought that your body was all you needed.
“… … .”
rather good
How anxious have you been with unexplained favors? I felt more comfortable when I was digging through the trash and hiding from others.
When I woke up from a warm, sunny bed, not in a dark and cold alley, I was afraid that this might be a dream, and I was anxious that it was not my own when I sat down at the table to eat whole food rather than the leftovers from the trash can.
and… … .
It was terrifying to be left alone again.
‘Let’s die before we get hit.’
Without explaining the reason for not running away or dying right now, Tanya leaned against the door and buried her face between her knees.
* * *
It was night when I left the city.
Leaving the city in the morning is like spreading rumors about getting caught. It is dangerous to be attacked before arriving, so the night was chosen.
It was also noticeable that everyone went out together, so Reynol and Darin decided to start separately.
It sounds like it’s just me and Tanya.
“So, why are you going to die?”
“… … It doesn’t matter.”
No big deal, it looks like a calf being led to some sort of slaughterhouse.
It’s like being dragged out in the middle of the night to go to training. In terms of words, it seems strange enough, but that’s a matter of someone who has something to lose, isn’t that guy nothing to worry about?
having nothing.
“What are you going to do if you are already dead? I would have to walk all night.”
“… … Where are you going?”
“You will have to walk almost all day. If you’re having a hard time, tell me, and I’ll pick you up.”
“it’s crazy?”
Look at what you’re talking about.
“What are you crazy about? I told you before we left that we had to walk one day.”
“It’s not about that.”
“Then what? Is it because it’s embarrassing to be lifted up?”
“that… … as well as that. no.”
Then he kept his mouth shut.
Why are you doing this again? I’m seriously worried about whether I should learn even mind reading. I’ve thought about it for a bit, but I can’t afford to invest that far.
just ask
“If there’s something you don’t like, tell me right away. I don’t know if you don’t speak. Are you annoyed by dragging me out in the middle of the night?”
“… … .”
Tanya looked down at the floor for a while and opened her mouth.
“… … If it’s going to attack you, why don’t you do it here?”
“What?”
“You don’t have to go that far.”
“… … What?”
For a moment, I was stunned by the sound of her glaring at me.
What do you mean hit? Am I imagining it right? Is this little boy back?
“No, what are you talking about?”
“Don’t come near me.”
Her voice was raised out of absurdity, but Tanya stepped back and pulled out a knife and put it to her neck.
What kind of crazy development is this?
He widened the distance so as not to get excited, and opened his mouth in a calm manner.
“Calm down and talk. Why did you think so?”
I didn’t think I’d come out like this, so Tanya lost her strength in her hands and floundered.
‘Gap!’
Aiming for the gap, he ran, took the sword, and put it on the floor to subdue it.
dump!
“Let go of this!”
Ignoring Tanya who was struggling to let her go, she looked around.
“Don’t touch it!”
“Wait a minute.”
After confirming that there were no hidden weapons, I came down from the top of him. As soon as I got out of the way, Tanya quickly opened up the distance.
“Hey hey hey. Just calm down.”
He spoke as calmly as possible, but instead of calming down, only his body was shaking.
Your mental state seems to be unstable these days, but was it this much?
“For now, let’s make this clear. If you were going to attack it, you could still do it, you admit it?”
“… … .”
Checking that he was nodding his head while shaking his body, he approached slowly. The closer he got, the more he flinched, but luckily he didn’t run away.
Reaching near, he carefully returned the stolen sword. The guy looked up at me with a puzzled face, so I sat down and looked at him.
“Don’t bring it to your neck again. Do you know that I have no intention of harming you?”
“… … .”
He confirmed the small nod of his head again and continued speaking.
“We are in a hurry, so save our stamina, and let’s talk after we arrive. Why did you think that way?”
Shaking his ass when he got up, he noticed he hesitated but followed him up.
ha… … .
How the hell did you get into a game I made and even be suspected of being a sex offender?
I’ll kill anyone who sent me here. Really.
* * *
By the time we reached our destination, it had been almost a day, just before nightfall.
We didn’t say a word to each other until we arrived, but when we arrived, Tanya was exhausted and explained the situation.
My stamina was exhausted and it was difficult to understand because I was slurping and talking, but to sum it up, it was like this.
Disguised as a man, he recognized at a glance that he was a woman, asked to hang out together, and after showing a favor for an unknown reason, lured him into the forest in the middle of the night… … .
“Well… … .”
Si X. It was misleading.
“ha… … .”
Unknowingly sighing, Tanya flinched as she collapsed. He averts his eyes as if he’s sorry for the misunderstanding, but that guy isn’t sorry.
To be honest, it’s a matter of my lack of consideration.
In fact, as a producer, there is no reason not to feel close to the characters.
It was the same with Reynold and Darin, and even with Gyer Terberoz.
It is natural.
All characters are made by me.
If it’s just a game character, it’s not a problem. Rather, it is an advantage. That’s because the creators can take responsibility for the game.
The problem is in my case.
Now I’m not a game, I’m not real.
‘It’s only been ten days since I met that guy.’
Intimacy becomes habit.
I feel like it’s been over a year since we’ve met, but from the other side, I’m a little boy I haven’t seen in a while.
No matter how old you are, on the outside, you and I are not even the same age as you, so you might think that you have lust for him.
Anything else you’ve seen in Layton?
This is why early education is so important.
Nodding at the guy who has fallen. bowed his head.
“sorry. I lacked consideration.”
“Uh, huh?”
Tanya stuttered with a puzzled expression.
“I told you to tell me that you don’t know if you don’t tell me, but my explanation wasn’t enough. It’s hard to explain why I helped you in the first place… … You came here after being informed that there are guys who are after you.”
“… … me?”
“okay. I didn’t want to talk about it because it would only be scary if I told you, but I must have misunderstood.”
“… … .”
Tanya looked at me with a long, thoughtful expression.
It would be hard to believe If she is being targeted, it is said that she is a princess, but the evidence is that the godfather, ‘Crazy Dog Iron’, took care of everything, and even disguised herself as a man and hid herself.
If I hadn’t known Byron’s abilities, I’d wonder how I would have found out.
The problem is that I know Byron’s abilities, and if I were him, I could have noticed that Tanya was a princess with blue blood.
I was thinking about how to explain it again, but I heard a voice.
“Coming this far, it bothers me.”
A man with a scar on his face.
I can’t remember the name, but it must be one of Byron’s men. It was probably the position of the weakest of the Four Heavenly Kings, but it turned out well.
That way there’s no need to explain.
His expression was about to brighten, but the man continued.
“Ryan of blue blood. Byron-sama’s order, I will take you.”
“What?”
who?
