Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 26
Ekhav Tsshin Ogatorp.
Not an ordinary knight, he is the youngest knight leader in the kingdom, and at the same time has excellent swordsmanship skills to be chosen as the 3rd sword among the king’s 10 swords, and is one of the prides of the Isthiel kingdom.
Surprisingly, on the day I killed the bandits six years ago, he took on the role of scout rider and surveyed the village. I wondered why a person like this was a reconnaissance rider, but on the contrary, he said it was such a serious matter that he had to be a reconnaissance rider. At least he himself judged it that way, but if a proud person judged it that way, that would have been correct.
Well, the devil isn’t some kind of mutt from the backyard, and the devil’s army attacked the kingdom after hundreds of years, so it’s a serious incident.
“We were able to reach the village only after it was late in the night. It was an invasion in centuries, so we moved carefully…it was too late.”
What I found was a village that was all destroyed, the corpses of thieves whose deaths were presumed to be different, piles of soil that were not yet dry, and the tombs of my parents who had not yet been buried. I checked further to see if there were any survivors, but there was no particular income, so it seems that I ended up returning to Ogwen and organizing it.
Our cabin isn’t in a good view, and I was tired and went to bed really early that day. It was a relationship that was exquisitely combed.
“But… there were survivors. You even killed those bandits at such a young age?”
“I understand that it seems like there is a flaw in my humanity, but I want you to understand that I came to this conclusion because it was difficult to accept the act of insulting my parents’ graves at the risk of taking away even my belongings.”
“Huh? What are you talking about? We’re talking about how you can have those skills at such a young age. Killing the thieves is a good thing.”
I was speechless at the answer of Radnell Vandes, who made an inappropriate expression. An 8-year-old kid killed 6 people, but is that kind of reaction reasonable? I’m starting to have doubts about humanity in another world.
“I understand what you are trying to say… but in fact, I am also the same. At the age of 8, it is difficult to overcome even the problem of strength, let alone the problem of technique. I’m sorry to throw it out… but it’s so startling that I’d like to ask for forgiveness.”
“That’s… Actually, when I was young…”
Even if I put aside the absurd relationship, I decided to adapt the story appropriately to convey it as it was not enough to hide my magical power since the murder in the past was revealed like this.
With the help of a wizard passing by, he was able to feel his magic, and after repeating it, he was able to use his magic. At that time, he strengthened his body with it and killed him. However, after hearing the teacher’s story, I realized that it was dangerous, so I sealed it, but this time I used it to kill Delt.
I didn’t lie about the content, but instead of saying that I could use it like eating, I explained it to the extent that it felt like risking my life to write it in a life crisis, and the three people’s expressions completely hardened.
“It’s said to be for survival… but it’s a miracle that he survived even crossing a really dangerous bridge. It’s the first time anyone’s ever been able to do that.”
“I’m actually saying this because I saw a guy who exploded to death while doing that… It’s a real miracle.”
A strange silence lingered around thanks to Radnell Vandes, who spoke of real eyewitness accounts, but it was Radnell Vandes who broke the silence and opened his mouth.
“I definitely don’t feel an aura. But still, this kind of growth, Ragnis. That’s why I brought you there on purpose.”
“Yes. Master.”
When I slightly averted my eyes to look at him, Ragnis let go of his hard expression and smiled lightly.
“He not only saved me twice, but he is also a man with talent. A person who inherits the will of his ancestors cannot fail to give his benefactor a deserved reward and opportunity.”
“Certainly…even if you train from the age of eight, it’s an admirable achievement. Not all children of knights become like that. Even my daughter has to give up some numbers.”
“Certainly your daughter is pretty, but it’s a bit hard to compare her to a friend who has been such a standout since she was eight years old.”
No, no matter how much she is someone else’s daughter, aren’t you talking too harshly? The words almost came out of his throat, but Ekaf nodded.
“Certainly not comparable.”
All of a sudden, I feel embarrassed and embarrassed. Ekaf, who had been organizing his thoughts for a while, quenched his neck and looked straight at me and continued.
“Your purpose is to avenge the enemies of your parents and villagers?”
“That’s also true… After going through something big at a young age, I don’t want to go through that again. My goal is to make sure no one dares to harm me.”
“You mean you want power?”
“No. I just want the facts.”
“actually?”
“Yes. The fact that I can’t see anything good if I touch Eldmia Ega. Whether it’s power or force, if I can do it, it doesn’t really matter. That’s why I helped Ragnis.”
Maybe my words were too direct, but Ragnis secretly stabbed me in the side, but I gritted my teeth and endured because I couldn’t bear to react in front of people like that.
“It’s a very long-term goal. That goal might be difficult, but revenge to kill the commander of the demon army who led the destruction of the village might help. In fact, if that becomes possible, it will be of great help to the kingdom.”
As if it were a matter of course, Ekaf continued with a calm face that did not change his expression again.
“If I offer to help, are you willing to come to my family and learn?”
The proposal that Ragnis wanted rather than me eventually came out of his mouth.
◈
I pretended to be worried about it, but in the end there was only one option I could do.
Using a guardian’s chance and avoiding the seat for now. Ragnis never listened to my story that I would consult with Asilie, and Ekaf and Radnell Vandes also agreed as much as they heard that Asilie was both a teacher and a benefactor. After all, today is not the only day, so he even lent me a horse, saying that I could put it on hold until the last day. Still, I want to praise the fact that no one came out forcefully.
It’s funny when you think about it. In the first place, I don’t have to ask Asilie anything.
There is no reason to be scolded for acting recklessly to save Ragnis. In the first place, it was a contractual relationship that started with me saving Asillie and simply staking it on the condition of a period of 8 years. So, in fact, Asilie didn’t have to worry too much about whether or not I died. Rather, it’s just about being free a little faster.
But it was clear that neither of us could. I am genuinely in trouble with Asillie, and Asillie is sincerely concerned that I will die.
Would I be worried if my parents told me not to follow Ekaf even if they were alive right now? No matter how much he thought about it, he would have just nodded and followed Ekaf without a word.
However, the contract with only two years left in the eight-year contract is making me think about Ekaf’s proposal. On the one hand, there is a desire to spend two more years with Asillie, rejecting the perfect opportunity to learn proper swordsmanship and learn aura to become stronger with all kinds of excuses.
I can’t figure out if it’s because it’s happiness with a clear end or because of personal feelings.
Even though I rode the horse as slowly as possible to clear my mind, I arrived at the cabin in an instant. I didn’t know if it was because I was strong because I was a warhorse or if I was lost in my thoughts and forgot the time, so I decided to blame the warhorse for being useless.
In terms of time, it was still around 4 o’clock, and even though I hadn’t been back for a little over a week, the panoramic view of the cabin made my heart choke.
And at the center of it all was Asilier.
While I was distracted for a moment as my platinum blonde hair, which had a stronger silver tint, was illuminated by the light falling through the leaves, Asilie, who responded to my sound with perked ears, stopped feeding the horse and greeted me with a broad smile.
“Come on, Eldy.”
“I’m back, sister.”
As we got off the horse we were riding and properly tied it next to our horse, Asilier looked at it with interest and asked.
“No matter how you look at it, it’s a war horse? I don’t think you would have received this as a gift… I guess the story isn’t over yet?”
“Exactly. I have a problem that I need to talk to my sister about. He just lent it to me because I needed to hear it one more time anyway.”
“story?”
Seeing Asilie’s face showing doubt, her mouth, which hadn’t come off easily yet, couldn’t be opened any more. However, it was something that could not be postponed, so I took my luck slowly.
“The position of Ragnis seems to be greater than I thought. It wasn’t just that an escort came, but an escort.”
“Oh my goodness.”
She had returned home after saying goodbye to Ragnis, saying she wasn’t interested, so she didn’t know anything about it either. Still, he looked quite surprised as if he hadn’t expected it to be that much.
“One of the representatives of the escort was a man named Ecap, the king’s three swords.”
Asilie’s face, which had been listening intently only for interest, subtly hardened at just that word. While I hesitated at that response, Asilie asked in a calm voice.
“I asked you if you would like to join the family?”
