The Escort Knight Who Is Being Obsessed Over by the Villainess Wants To Run Away

chapter 22



9. Elijah on his birthday (3)

I spat impatiently at the aristocratic lady who interrupted us.

“Hey, lady. What did you say now?”

“Ah, ah, ah, ajum, ajum… mind… ?!”

You open your eyes wide in disbelief.

In front of her shaking hands, I took a step closer.

“No way, ji, now, me, to me, ah, ajum….”

“Then, who else is there besides you here? Would I have called the lady next door to us? Yes?”

“Huh, this, my, huh… !”

“We are definitely guests invited by Lady Elijah. Why are you arguing with someone?”

“You… !”

I ignored her words and said.

“If you have any complaints, go to the owner and ask for it. Or, is she babbling behind her back because she’s not confident about it? Well, even among nobles, there is a difference in level….”

At that moment, the lady slammed her hand down.

The gesture of an ordinary person who has never fought in his life.

It is visibly slow.

I threw my head back and easily dodged.

I instinctively grabbed it and almost used a one-armed kick.

The last remaining reason blocked that much.

There’s really no going back once you’ve done that.

Instead, he evaded them and then scorned them.

“Oops. What would your precious lady do if her hand habits were so vulgar? You have to keep your body tight.”

“Yes, yes, you… ! Me, me… ! Ah, ah, ah-!”

The lady screamed at her and tried to knock her down by grabbing her by the back of the neck.

At that time, Anna urgently shouted.

“Go, Duchess… !”

At that moment, my body froze cold.

The Duchess?

So, Narcissus?

The mistress of the Bevel family?

A crowd of buzzing people gathered, and that lady… Those who seemed to be servants of Narcissus glared at me.

“Yu, Yuda? What are you doing? I think we’re in trouble… ?!”

Richard asked anxiously, and I answered firmly.

“Let’s bounce.”

“Let’s jump out?”

“Yes. Right Now.”

“Me, catch those bastards-!”

Leaving behind Narsisi’s screams, we bounced with all our might.

*

I ran until my mouth was sick of it.

Thanks to everyone being young, I was able to get out of the crowd.

“Huh, huh…. Whoop….”

“Ugh….”

We ran all the way to the outside of the mansion.

Fortunately, no one seemed to be chasing them.

Everyone held on to the wall and caught their breath.

“Hey, this, Mr., Judas, you, man….”

“Did you know that I am, uh, the duchess….”

I don’t know what Elijah’s family looked like.

I’ve never seen it in real life.

I only know the name roughly.

Of course, I didn’t know that the lady was Elijah’s mother.

‘There is no resemblance at all… ! Like the hair, eye color, and facial features!’

But, Mom… Is right?

Even he doesn’t know.

Because Elijah, who has very few conversational events, never talked about her family.

As I struggled to catch my breath, someone suddenly burst into laughter.

“Put, phug… !”

It was Lindel.

He caught his breath and burst into laughter.

“Phahahaha hahahaha! Ah, hee hee!”

Starting with him, the other kids laugh one by one.

I laughed too.

To be honest, it was a funny situation. No matter how you look at it

In the midst of everyone giggling, only Dylan couldn’t laugh and was serious.

Richard tapped me on the shoulder.

“You mean you were cool inside?”

Lindel helped, wiping away tears.

“I mean, oh, really. How pitiful it was In particular, I don’t think I will ever forget that lady, her face turning red and her shaking.”

“Ah, ah, ah!”

Argon grabbed her by the back of the neck and followed Narcissus.

It was funnier because none of them were the same.

Even Dylan couldn’t stand it at that point.

“Heuk… !”

I covered my mouth to cover my bursting laughter, but it was already too late.

Everyone burst into laughter again.

“Not the same at all!”

“Oh, my stomach hurts….”

Feline grabbed her stomach, and Dyke came up to me and held out her fist.

“It was great, uh. Admit it, you really are.”

“Thank you.”

I clenched my fists and giggled.

A few more people came closer and said “Yes~” And held out their fists.

In the same way, they clashed and celebrated the victory.

Dylan looked back at us and shook his head.

A smile remained on her face that could not be erased.

“Ha…. It feels like my lifespan has increased and decreased by several years….”

“You laughed so much for something like that?”

“Be quiet….”

When Richard teased Dylan, he gritted his teeth and suppressed his laughter.

At that time, someone ran from the direction of the mansion.

I turned around in amazement, alert, and it was Anna, the maid who guided us.

“Ha ha ha…. Ha….”

Her complexion turned blue and she looked at me sweating.

She puts her hand on her chest to catch her breath, then sits down as if collapsing.

“Hey, hehehe…” . Whoa… !”

“Uh…. Anna? Ooh, are you crying?”

“Huh… ! Kwu-! Now, what do I do now… ! The Duchess must have… !”

While talking like a hiccup, she began to cry.

It was not the time to laugh.

Anna is the person in charge of leading us.

And then I got into a big accident.

He fed the Duchess, Narcisi, a taffy of incredible density.

Anna may have to take responsibility for that.

I approached her fidgeting with her.

“That, this, first of all, don’t cry….”

I don’t know what to do when my child cries… !

How embarrassing it would have been if I burst into tears while playing with the kids at the gym!

“Ahhhhh… ! Black, uh… !”

“Wow, Judas rang!”

“uuu~ You trash bastard~”

“Be quiet!”

I patted Anna on the back.

“I…. I’m sorry. I thought briefly… Joe. Yes. I know. I’m kind of like that at first. I get angry easily, and I don’t think about the front and back according to my intellect, and I run into it without thinking up and down, but, um…. Well, what would Lady Elijah do for you?”

“… ….”

“Otherwise, I will take responsibility. If anyone says anything, say my name. Would you rather go get scolded together?”

“No…. It’s my fault for not managing it properly…. It was nice to meet you in the meantime. I’m just….”

“Ugh, you shouldn’t give up on life already at such a young age. Go to bed, wake up.”

Anna sighed and stood up.

Shaking her knees, she looks at me and touches her forehead.

I looked at her and turned her head.

Yudara seems to be older than her body, but she is also quite a child.

I think it was around 16.

I’m so sorry.

The other guys didn’t make fun of me like before, probably because they knew the situation was serious.

“Haa…. What can i do something that has already happened. It will work somehow.”

Anna smiled dejectedly.

She has a quick personality to brush off.

“It’s about time for the lady to come. Will she move?”

“Yeah, that’s right….”

“Once in a lifetime is enough for something like that.”

“Yes!”

She looked at me distrustfully and then shook her head.

I followed her as calmly as I could.

The rest of the guys in room 13 also calmed down.

*

Follow Anna to the central hall.

As she wished, nothing like that happened earlier.

No one else started a fight, and my temper never exploded.

The Duchess of Narsisi came to visit and didn’t even ask for responsibility. I’m so glad

The spaciousness of the central hall was magnificent.

Ceilings as high as the sky, dazzling chandeliers.

And then, a red carpet stretched from the main entrance toward the central podium.

This was the way Elijah, the protagonist of the day, would later enter.

The area was full of customers.

They are similar to the ladies and gentlemen you see outside.

There, I found a very foreign and welcome subject.

“Moon deer?”

The red carpet, which was laid out in a straight line, parted on the stairs that stretched on both sides.

In the wide space between the stairs, there was a moon deer with a fence.

The guests all gathered in front of it to watch the moon deer.

“This is what the young lady tamed this time….”

“Look at those eyes and bright horns. How can you be so beautiful?”

“I am definitely a direct descendant of the Bebel family. You are an unusual person….”

“How will the Church of the Moon accept this….”

“Still, I didn’t do anything bad, did I? It’s been a long time since we weren’t friendly….”

“Should we be glad they didn’t come?”

The moon deer walked around calmly inside the fence, as if it wasn’t uncomfortable.

I couldn’t even dare to approach because there were so many people around, but the moon deer raised its head.

Looks straight at me and pricks up his ears.

I smiled and waved.

There were so many people around that I couldn’t even dare to approach them.

We gathered at a place away from the red carpet.

It’s a very awkward street.

“I don’t know if you can see it when you enter, lady.”

As Lindel grumbled.

The seats close to the red carpet have already been occupied by early arrivals or important aristocrats.

We are also Elijah’s guests, but not to the extent of standing next to them.

Everyone seemed to realize their position when they came here again.

“By the way, Judas, what should I do if I can’t give you that gift?”

“It’s okay. I didn’t buy it expecting to be able to give it anyway. I bought it because it was inconvenient to come empty-handed.”

For me to write… Kinda like that

The training center is all boys, so there is no one to give it to.

Should I give it to Anna as an apology?

I don’t know.

There must be a way to deal with it anywhere.

After answering, I looked around the aristocrat.

I was curious about Elijah’s family.

A member of the Bevel family that appears only by name in the game.

It was only a matter of time before I found Narcissus, who was holding me back.

Blonde hair, blue eyes.

‘The people around him seem to be Bebel’s family.’

Unlike the time when she despised us, Narsisi’s eyes as she looked at her family were very friendly.

He has a calm expression.

It’s to the point of being mistaken for someone else.

‘But… How come there is no one like Elijah?’

Black hair and red eyes.

There is no such combination here.

‘Even though I have red eyes….’

Narcissus has blue eyes.

The family around him all have red eyes like Elijah.

No matter how you look at it, they are close like family.

By the way, they all have gorgeous golden hair.

‘Elijah has black hair….’

At the time of observing and thinking about them.

“Lady Elijah of the Bebel Family is entering!”

The gatekeeper shouted.

The buzzing noise died down.

Everyone moved closer to the red carpet and stared at one place.

The main entrance to the hall.

We also tried to peep in the crowd.

I was just curious.

Because of his short stature, he somehow managed to find space between people’s gaps and legs.

Just in time, the huge door opened gently.

Sabak, Sabak.

A small foot steps on a soft carpet.

The black leather shoes shined in the light of the chandelier.

Black hair tied back in gorgeous pigtails.

Red eyes staring at the front indifferently.

The dress that seems to have been modeled after that color suits her very well.

‘I put on thicker makeup than usual.’

My cheeks are especially red today.

To put such heavy makeup on a child.

Even nobles must be very tired.

Received a gentle applause from the guests, Elijah hung her carpet.

She didn’t even look at her customers.

I just walk gracefully.

Is it because of her mood that she looks expressionless today?

She was walking proudly when she suddenly stopped.

The gaze, which was gently looking around, was fixed as if it were stuck somewhere.

The applause grew quieter as she stared straight into one spot.

Instead, he followed her gaze with a murmur.

Elijah stepped on her again.

Walking toward a certain group of customers.

Get off the carpet.

I didn’t say a word, but the customers split up on their own.

She walked between them as if it were natural for Elijah.

The target she headed for was me.

Elijah had pinpointed me.

I don’t know how she found me in a closet.

I didn’t even have room to step back.

Elijah got closer and closer.

She quickly got down on her one knee, and the other candidates followed me.

“Judas.”

Elijah stood before me.

“Yes…. Miss.”

“Raise your head.”

I looked up at her.

Her big eyes blink, looking alternately between the box placed next to her and my face.

“That, a present? You want to give it to me?”

“… Yes. That’s right.”

“Give me.”

Hesitantly, I carefully handed her the box.

“Thank you.”

Elijah smiled brightly.

“Did you cut your hair? It suits you well.”

“Oh, yes? No, yes…. Thank you….”

Go back with the box in your arms.

As if nothing had happened, Elijah walked back on her red carpet.

I stared blankly at it.

‘What happened… ?’

It was originally a gift to Elijah.

She gave up because she thought she couldn’t give it up.

The butler also refused, and I never thought Elijah would take my gift himself.

No matter how much I am arousing Elijah’s curiosity, she knows that it is a delusion.

Anyway, the gift went to its owner.

Yes. All good. Everything is good….

Why did he take the gift in such a conspicuous way in such a crowded place?

‘Did I really have to do that… ?’

Richard tapped me on the shoulder.

“Hey…. You are in trouble.”

It is as he said.

Hundreds of nobles gathered here were all paying attention to me.

“… Ah.”

Something keeps going wrong.
