My Lucky Encounter From the Game Turned Into Reality - Chapter 71
A chance in a game turns into reality Episode 71
21. Saint Maid Contest (2)
The main character of the Cinderella story, ‘Ivril Barnett’, who keenly feels what it means to have your life change overnight, is an escort in a luxury car favored by nobles. I got off with an escort.
Then, numerous people’s gazes poured in…
“Huh? “Isn’t that the woman who appeared on TV with the Lord?”
“You bastard, that woman. To someone who might become a saint.”
“Oh my. Did you hear it?”
“Let’s go somewhere else quickly.”
He originally had a unique appearance, but thanks to the broadcast media, he became a complete celebrity and a lot of people recognized him.
Considering that I was a low-income person working part-time at a convenience store until about a month ago, this was a situation I could not get used to no matter how many times I experienced it.
-Rumble.
Moreover, the number of attendants who followed her was as splendid as that of any noble. There were a whopping 9 people, including 1 secretary, 2 vanguards, 4 general knights, and 2 paladins.
Considering her status as a commoner, the scale was excessive.
However, Adrian insisted that we must prepare for any unexpected situation from now on, and Archbishop Freed, one of Ivril’s teachers and sponsors, agreed and gave her two holy knights who were blessed with various blessings.
Thanks to this, a group was created that did not fit well with the background of the old villa village in the old town, which was a low-class residential area among commoners.
After a while, they arrived at their destination, which was in front of a low-rise villa with a lot of black mold at the entrance of the building.
“It’s our house, so you can go in alone.”
“I can’t do that.”
As Ivril stood in front of her house wearing fancy clothes and leading numerous attendants, she felt embarrassed and spoke in a hushed voice, but the attendants resolutely shook their heads.
“There is no need to be ashamed. “This place where Ivril was born and lived may look old on the outside, but it is like a sanctuary to us.”
A cringeworthy remark from the paladin who is Archbishop Freed’s close associate and who is escorting Ivril.
Following the archbishop, he already treated Ivril as a half-saint and was a paladin.
Ivril, whose face turned red for no reason, quickly went up to the second floor as if running away, opened the door as if she was used to it, and entered the house.
“Mom came out.”
Small door and narrow entrance.
Beyond that, there is a living room measuring about 3 pyeong…
“Huh? “Is your daughter here?”
For some reason, as far as I could see, there were about 15 people huddled together in that narrow living room.
In the Kingdom of Reinharts, people lead a standing lifestyle rather than a sitting lifestyle, but when commoners enter the house, they take off their shoes and go barefoot or change into slippers like in Korea.
Thanks to this, the entrance was full of shoes, making it difficult to step in.
Still, I somehow managed to push the shoes to one side with my foot and take them off with the help of the hairpin maid, who was like a dedicated maid.
“Oh oh! “I couldn’t be so lucky, and Everil just happened to come!”
“Eve, it’s been a while. “I’m your uncle, you remember?”
“Wow, those shoes are really expensive. Those are Royal Elven, right? “I heard they were made by elves and cost over 5 million per pair.”
“Not only the shoes, but the dresses, the devices, everything is expensive.”
“It seems that the lord especially cherishes her, perhaps because she is a candidate for sainthood.”
However, as soon as Ivril took a step into the house, people rushed to meet her and each said a word.
They all welcomed Ivril with a smile.
However, his eyes were looking up and down as if he was evaluating Ivril, like the eyes of a hawk aiming for its prey.
Naturally, as the crowd gathered, the guards behind Ivril took a step forward and stopped them.
“Get away.”
“uh? “I guess they are our Ivril’s bodyguards?”
“We are Eve’s relatives. “There is no need to be so cautious.”
But the knights’ attitude was that they didn’t care what they said.
Relatives reacted with annoyance, and eventually all eyes focused on Ivril.
“First of all, they are relatives.”
However, Ivril’s reaction was ambiguous.
Does it feel like you don’t want to see your relatives?
The guards frowned at that, but the relatives looked kind-hearted and asked why.
“I’m sorry, but I’m sending them out.”
The two vanguards Adrian had attached for close escort were both women.
The quick-witted women were able to easily detect the relationship between them from Ivril’s attitude, and decided to treat their relatives forcefully, even if it meant giving them a somewhat bad image.
“Ivril came to visit because she had something to talk with her parents. “All relatives except your two parents must leave.”
The only people the knights respected were Ivril and her parents, and they completely ignored the rest of the relatives.
Their intentions were obvious even without looking.
When someone succeeds, aren’t relatives the first to come and wag their tails?
“Eve, aren’t you doing too much to an uncle you haven’t seen in a long time?”
“Eve, you’re my aunt. “The aunt who took great care of you since you were young.”
But Ivril’s relatives were powerful enemies.
I was momentarily surprised by the knights’ orders, but I knew that the knights would not be able to recklessly attack a relative in front of Ivril.
So the relatives held on without following the knights’ instructions, and in the end, when Vanguard tried to draw his sword, they retreated backwards and took refuge inside the house.
In the end, Ivril sighed and shook her head at the female Vanguard who had brought on the villainess.
“it’s okay. “But first of all, we are relatives.”
“…All right. Then we will keep an eye on you.”
“The house is small, so only one senior vanguard, one senior paladin, and the secretary can go in together.”
Needless to say, the Vanguard’s combat power is something that even the Paladins, who are armed with various blessings and holy relics, have a combat power that cannot be ignored.
Therefore, the other party members followed Ivril’s instructions without saying a word.
“Yes, then we will be waiting outside the front door and door.”
The relatives who had been frowning at the sight of Ivril commanding knights came back with exclamations of admiration.
However, Vanguard, who was trying to chase them away, stopped in place when he grabbed the sword handle again.
“You all keep two steps apart. “If you close the distance without permission, even if you are a relative of Ivril, I will cut your head off.”
Relatives sent a look of protest to Ivril, saying it was too much.
“Uh huh. “These.”
However, this reaction only aroused stronger hostility towards Ivril’s escort.
“All right. “I’ll follow your instructions, so don’t look at me like I’m going to kill you.”
“Just watch.”
Ivril’s parents, who seemed troubled by the sight of her relatives and knights, approached their daughter and asked how she was doing.
“My daughter. “Are you in any pain?”
“I’m doing well. Do not worry too much.”
“Is it okay though? “What if something goes wrong after receiving this much attention?”
“Even if I don’t become a saint, my lord said I don’t have to worry about the future. “He said he would make me a priest of the Marquis of Lawrence or, if I wanted, work as a vassal.”
“Is that so? “If that’s the case, that’s good, but… don’t push yourself too hard.”
“lol.”
“sorry. “I don’t have enough parents, so there’s nothing I can do to help.”
Not everyone is unhappy just because they have no money or are poor.
Although poor people faced more inconveniences and had to worry about what others thought of them than those who could afford it, they cared for each other and treated each other as special, and they knew how to be happy even when they lit a single candle on a small cake on their birthday.
The expressions of the guards who had frowned at their relatives softened at the sight of this poor family worrying about each other more than themselves.
“Ah, I came today because I have something to tell you.”
“So what’s going on?”
“The lord wants both my parents to come and live in the castle. “If you want to work, I can provide a place for you within the castle.”
Working at a castle means becoming a civil servant.
The salary is high, the retirement age is long, and the pension is generous.
This is the dream job that every commoner hopes for, news that would make most people very happy, but Ivril’s parents were not.
“I don’t know if I’m causing too much trouble. “I’m sorry for treating you like this…”
“That’s right. “If we get special treatment, it feels like we’re selling you out.”
I felt strongly that the parents did not want to harm their daughter.
However, seeing the two people thinking too deeply, Ivril’s personal maid and secretary, who had been silent until now, tried to come forward.
It wasn’t such a big deal for a person who was the marquis of the huge kingdom of Reinharts to provide a place to stay and jobs for two commoners.
“Oh, it’s frustrating. Why are you measuring things like that? Just say ‘thank you’ and follow along. is not it?”
“that’s right. And this isn’t just your problem, it’s the whole family’s problem. “Don’t you know that your quality of life changes depending on whether you have sexual connections or not?”
However, the two relatives came forward faster than the secretary.
“Brother, what is that….”
“Brother, please, please.”
They were Ivril’s uncle and maternal uncle.
A statement that makes it seem like no matter who hears it, they will benefit from it.
Ivril, who had tried to forget the existence of her relatives, had no choice but to ask.
“But why did your relatives suddenly come to visit? “I usually behave like a stranger.”
In response, my uncle, who was the leader among his relatives, stepped forward.
“Your lives have been very difficult so far, so we decided to come together as a family and try to start a business. “Here is the business plan.”
A relative handing a business plan to a 15-year-old girl was absurd, but the contents of the business plan were also formidable.
[It is a business that cannot fail if you appeal to the point that it is the business of the Ivril family, a candidate for sainthood.]
In other words, she came to her parents asking to sell her name and start a business.
“Don’t worry daughter. “I have no intention of going along with this absurd plan.”
“Why on earth aren’t you doing it?”
“No matter what we do, we do it ourselves. “I don’t need your help, brothers.”
“that’s right. Don’t even think about selling our Ivril name somewhere else. “If I get caught later, I won’t let you go.”
“What does it mean to have a good family? “Aren’t you being too kind to your brothers?”
Even from a third party’s perspective, the relationship between this family and their relatives did not seem to be very good.
And the reason was soon revealed through Ivril’s father.
“Four years ago, you covered up the debt with a guarantee and ran away, and now what? “Are you heartless?”
“We feel sorry about that. That’s why you’re trying to make up for it now.”
“If you were sorry, you should have helped us when we were mired in debt. “He ran away to another territory and was eating well and living well.”
“I’ll say it again, I didn’t do it because I wanted to. We were trying to pay off our debt? And honestly, I can’t see it as my fault. The story about the guarantee was something that the in-laws’ bachelor said in the first place, and it’s because you didn’t look into it properly…”
“Huh, so it was my fault for trusting my brother?”
“no no. It’s my fault. “It’s my biggest fault, but it’s also not good to see brothers making too much money.”
A story that moves even the listener.
I can’t believe that the Ivril family, who support each other and support each other even though they are poor, had a relative like this.
The guards felt a strong urge to kill.
“Just go back. I don’t want to get involved with my uncles. “We just treat each other like we didn’t exist before.”
It would have been nice to pour out the curses that had been stored in her heart, but Ivril tried to move on smoothly until the end, fearing that her actions might disappoint the people around her who trusted her.
However, people with common sense and conscience would not have shown their faces so shamelessly.
“Eve. “I don’t mean to talk so rudely to the adults in the family. Still, we are the brothers of the parents who gave birth to you.”
“That’s right, I can help you a little bit, right?”
They were people who did not know what shame was.
Even though they couldn’t get close because they were afraid of the knights, they still said what they had to say, and they looked so cowardly.
Eventually, the guards could not control their anger and put their hands on their swords.
“What are these parasites full of guts?”
But then.
A man appeared next to Ivril.
As if color was added to the empty space.
The guards were taken aback, but soon realized who the opponent was and immediately got down on one knee to show respect.
“Jasmine Trenton, commander of the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion of the Lawrence Strategic Mobile Knights, meets with you, Lord.”
“Rick Castro, a first-class knight of the Holy Knights of the Archangel Headquarters of the Kingdom of Reinharts, meets His Excellency the Marquis Lawrence.”
