Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 180

Excluding Cheryl, who was very nervous, and the rest of the mansion, Asilier and I, following Esmuier’s suggestion, went up to the room first. It was a decision made with Ogatorp’s own face in mind, seeing as it would be disrespectful to come to someone else’s house and talk only to the diners there.

In fact, judging from Cheryl’s expression, she seemed to want her to be ignored, but it didn’t matter.

Time passed smoothly, except for a small incident where Ascilie, who perfectly predicted that it was a long time since he was detained and that Esmuet would have stuck with him for a moment, tried not to fall apart for a moment.

In the meantime, I talked to Asilier about the invitation to dinner proposed by Rellie and the others, got her consent, and after finishing her business and receiving another expression of affection from Esmue, the day was finally over.

“Even considering that I’m back after a while, it’s really crazy.”

My luggage, originally shared with the servants, had been moved to the last guest room. It wasn’t that there was a problem with the bond with them as we had been eating and sleeping for two years.

Even in the South Korean army, if you stick together to that extent, unless your military life is a mess, something like comradeship will arise, but there is nothing to talk about the bond between kids with a clear sense of purpose. It was only a measure taken because it was noticed by the outside world that the person who killed the knight Envelde was put to bed with the servants in one room.

If you leave it as it is for no reason, it will be regarded as boasting that ‘even a servant can beat a knight with battlefield experience’, and it becomes an annoyance when a useless dispute comes in. I don’t know if it’s because they die for their honor and live for their honor, but when they feel they need them, they really tackle them with everything they can.

Right now, even if I am the only one, if I make a mistake, I can come up with an infinite number of ways to start.

“In many ways, it seems like a timely fit.”

Even if it’s to win the title of a wandering knight, it’s no different from a job I’ve been working hard on and loving, so I want to leave when I can get out as well as possible. While it is difficult for even the royal family to praise me unilaterally, no matter how well-known the knight family is called the king’s 10 swords, I don’t know what will happen if I stay inside. Internal discipline by firing in moderation, but if the form of being taught is maintained… it will be seen as a fairly plausible response in an aristocratic society.

After changing into simple clothes and lying on the bed, I realized the shocking fact that even guest beds were of slightly lower quality than those in detention centers, but the psychological stability was incomparable.

Lying down like that, I sorted out the things I had to explain to Cheryl or Sir Ekaf tomorrow, and I fell asleep in an instant.

Maybe it’s because of the feeling of being at home?

Normally, I would have woken up at dawn, but I slept soundly until it was time for breakfast, woke up, and without fail I ate a meal with a hearty table setting with care for Esmuer. After that, I started to organize my personal affairs according to yesterday’s plan.

The moment I explained the situation to Cheryl and told her the plan I had conceived yesterday, I got a reaction that I couldn’t understand more easily than I expected. How could it be sorted out?

“…Then, after all, next year you’re going out for real.”

“It’s a new thing. It’s already been decided since you came here, right?”

Cheryl thought for a long time with a very dissatisfied expression before signing my resignation letter.

The next destination was Ragnis’ mansion. Perhaps because it was the process of everything being resolved and being normalized, the appearance of the mansion was creating a hectic scene with energetic servants moving around busily.

I was contemplating putting my visit on hold, wondering if I had come at a busy time for no reason, but Lenisa, who was in the lead as he did on the first day of the imperial visit, found me and approached me with a happy smile.

“Sir Eldmia! Looks like your detention is over!”

“It’s been a while, Sir Lenissa. I’m glad things went well.”

“It’s all thanks to Lord Eldmia’s efforts together. As usual, the Marquis has been waiting for us every day. Let’s go in.”

“You look very busy. Can I help you?”

“Haha, no. I already got help from an acquaintance yesterday, but I can’t bother any more.”

Seeing that he didn’t mention his name, I guess he just said that.

I’m helping here for no reason. Even wasting time seems to be a hindrance. I just nodded and entered the mansion and headed for the office. As if I had nothing to do with the hustle and bustle outside, Ragnis, who was lying on the sofa and looking at the ceiling, looked at me. welcomed

“Detention is over!”

“Uh, originally, I came out yesterday, but I couldn’t come right away because I was dealing with other things. But why do you think you’re the only one relaxing in the mansion?”

“I’m forcibly neglected…”

In other words, in consideration for her, who must have suffered a lot, she was forced to take a thorough rest until the mansion was normalized and the royal family made a clear statement. Ragnis exaggeratedly explained that even the slightest lifting of a finger required Lenissa’s permission, repeatedly emphasizing boredom.

Of course, it wasn’t just complaints. Things like Gieth being reinstated thanks to the unraveling of the matter, and that the aristocrat who had put a mog-gora on her was put on the guillotine, and so on. Even though it was boring, Ragnis felt strangely weak throughout the entire conversation, whether it was true that he had been quite exhausted. That’s why I think Lenissa told her to recuperate.

“Come to think of it, I brought you a story to ease your boredom.”

“Huh? What is it?”

“I think I will learn magic from the court mage.”

“…uh?”

I don’t know if it relieved my boredom, but it was sure to be a mixture of bewilderment and surprise. Moderately, I picked up the stories that happened yesterday and told them, and the emotions changed their form to amazement and absurdity.

“It’s a really unbelievable relationship.”

“There are not one or two nonsense things in my life.”

“…Well then, why don’t you stay at my house this time?”

“He was also going to talk about it from now on.”

Sure enough, Ragnis was almost ready to spend his life, but he gave up on dragging me after succumbing to my successful persuasion.

“The specifics will be clear after talking to Weedra-nim and distributing the time, but I think it will be like that for now.”

“I knew he was famous for his personal research, but… I never thought he would have had a relationship like that with Eldmia after studying magic.”

Looking back on it, the only thing I could do for Ragnis, who shook his head in disbelief, was empathy and laughter.

◈

After that, for a few days, normal daily life continued as if I had really taken a vacation.

Visit the inn with Asillie, enjoy dinner with Gaendal and his party, and finally return to the mansion to explain the situation to Sir Ecap and ask for his understanding, receive a throwing weapon that Mr. Balkun has completed and test its performance, and stay for a long time in advance. It was a peaceful time, such as looking for a good inn.

After about 3 more days like that, Asilie made a suggestion as if she had suddenly come to mind.

“Eldy? Let’s take this opportunity to stop by Ogwen.”

“oh.”

When you start learning magic in earnest, it is clear that time will be tight. There is no reason not to move right away anyway, and since next year we will be farther apart, now was the right time.

Even though he submitted a letter of resignation, he continued to live and be indebted to the Ogatorf family, so he talked to Lord Ekaf first, and he even lent his horse.

“You’ve done a lot, and you should help out with that much. I’ll tell Cheryl.”

Certainly, as soon as the royal statement was announced, Cheryl returned to the academy. Honestly, since I’ve been in the mansion so naturally, I thought he was on vacation, but it wasn’t. They say you have to be quite busy for a while to keep your grades up.

Well that’s it anyway, originally I was going to take a tour carriage or walk, but it turned out well. After leaving Sir Ekaf’s office, I headed to the Adventurer’s District to buy some simple travel goods with Asilie. Asili also had to be unprepared due to the sudden flight to the capital, and due to the nature of my work, even if I was an adventurer, I had to do most of the day-trip work, so I had to purchase virtually all new items.

It wasn’t bad though. Perhaps the rain that fell on the day the Envelde mansion was half-destroyed had cut the temperature of the world, because winter was sure to come, as if it would snow soon. Even if there were existing items, it would have been time to replace them after inspection.

“I don’t know anything else, but I’m going to buy high-end items for cold weather.”

“Sure. My sister has gotten used to Ogwen’s climate, so it’s hard to endure now.”

“Then let’s stop by the guild for a while. There are things I’ve been eyeing for a while.”

Homemade type A tent. And a blanket that’s as cozy as magic.

I didn’t expect to buy it this soon.
