Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 162

Episode 162 – Ahahahaha!

The sound of my brother’s laughter coming from inside the communication room.

Ronian let out a sigh of relief as he heard loud laughter for the first time since the war.

I was really uncomfortable when my sister-in-law left right away.

“…thank god.”

“Didn’t I tell you, my lord, you are strong? Are you feeling at ease now?”

“Still, it’s easy not to worry about family… No, Victor. They tell you to speak informally when you two are together?”

“…it’s not that easy.”

Odd-Eye’s friend averted his gaze with a stern face and a slightly awkward smile.

If at least this level of response is progress, then it is progress.

Ronian couldn’t help but laugh as he patted the shoulder of his friend, whom he considered a rival in his heart.

“Then let’s go see the festival now.”

“Let’s go…”

“What an informal language! And let’s go together?”

“…Go alone. I will protect the mansion.”

“You were the one who told me not to worry, brother?”

“It’s not that I’m worried about my lord… No. Oh no. There’s nothing to do if I go to a place like that anyway.”

I was already well aware of my expressionless friend’s uninteresting tastes.

But I also knew how to destroy it once and for all.

“I heard a lot of decorations that were piled up in warehouses were brought out because of the war? Things that girls would like.”

I flinch.

“If you’re not going, tell me about Victoria’s tastes. I’ll go back and give you a gift.”

“…Goes.”

Are those twitching eyebrows an expression of anticipation or anger?

Ronian chuckled to himself and grabbed his friend’s shoulder.

However, I was still a little concerned about the inside.

‘It looks like you’re okay, so I’m sure you’ll have a good time with your sister-in-law.’

When I think about it, my sister-in-law’s expression wasn’t bad when she left the communications room.

I didn’t know much about what happened between men and women, but I thought maybe my brother’s stress had already eased off at that time.

‘If I were more capable, I could share more of your burden.’

Ronian walked slowly, pondering again the self-blaming thoughts he had begun to have for some time.

* * * You can’t move during the festival period anyway.

So, let’s put aside future plans and worries for at least a few days and enjoy the results we have already achieved.

Logan made up his mind to do so, but the surrounding environment did not follow suit.

The pile of party invitations is just cute.

“Count Logan! Please meet me just once!”

“Oh, you know who I am! The nobles are making friends, but how dare a soldier block the way?!”

“Haha, knight. Good things are good, so if you just open your legs to Count Logan… hehe, you’re a naive knight. Don’t do that…” The

crowds bustling at the entrance of the mansion made Logan not even dare to go outside. .

‘It’s enough to tell everyone to go away, but…’

Still, because of what he did in the palace, he is being given an ugly nickname like the Earl of Blood, so he will have to manage his reputation for the time being.

Logan could only sigh quietly.

At the same time, a similar sound of sighing was heard from next to me.

“As expected, this place is even better.”

“Not suitable for shelter, is it?”

Eilen laughed with an awkward expression at Logan’s words.

The situation of the Floyd family, who became the new Prime Minister, was not much different, and they returned again after not being able to last even a day at their home.

… I made an excuse, but the truth was….

“Hmm. I guess it can’t be helped in the current situation. They say that even off-duty knights go around the capital with their family emblems covered.”

Of course, it was a joke to say that the knight was covering up his family’s emblem, which was his pride, but it was also true that McLane was attracting that much attention.

“If I try to see my father-in-law separately, there will be more trouble, so I don’t think I can keep my promise. At least for now, I think it would be best to go down as soon as the festival is over. Did you have anything else to say?”

“…No, there wasn’t.”

– By the way, when are you going to get married?

Her father’s words flashed through her mind for a moment, but Eilen tried to answer calmly.

Of course, it was inevitable that a slightly resentful gaze would be turned towards Logan.

‘After proposing marriage.’

I suddenly felt cold from the frigus strapped to my belt.

Still, for some reason, my pride was hurt to say those words out of my own mouth.

Is that why?

“Then rest a little more, Sir Eilen. No matter how much you are a security guard, you don’t need to be next to me right now, even if you are resting separately…”

The word ‘sir’, which I was proud of, was particularly annoying to my ears.

“A mission is a mission. Don’t worry about me.”

“….”

“….”

The atmosphere is rapidly becoming cold.

That strangely emphasized word really bothered me.

“Maybe I said something wrong…?”

“My tongue.”

There’s something there.

Even though Logan felt that way, he just kept silent.

Because I had no idea what to say or what to say.

The words came out only after a long time.

“The closer people are, the more they should be open about their feelings. Even if they feel bad, they should tell each other so that their righteousness doesn’t get hurt. It’s not a good idea to expect them to understand each other without saying anything…”

“Yes, I understand.”

“….”

“….”

I didn’t know why, but I could clearly see that my mood was getting worse.

‘…Oh, it feels uncomfortable. I feel uncomfortable. why?’

No matter how much he thought about it, it seemed like he had done nothing wrong.

Not to mention my faults, recently there were many days when I couldn’t even see him due to preparations for the coronation ceremony.

Isn’t it okay to do something wrong only after the day we met?

Out of frustration, I tried to glare at him.

At that moment, Logan was so startled by the sight of the hatchet that he had no choice but to lower his head.

‘No, what did I do? If you’re dissatisfied, you should speak up. It’s not like I know how to mind read.’

No matter how much I didn’t know the woman, I could guess that it would be counterproductive if I just let out the thoughts in my head.

Logan thought seriously for a while in the cold atmosphere. Suddenly a thought occurred to me.

“ah!!”

“…?”

“I forgot about that. I’m so sorry.”

Logan became even more confident as he saw Eilen’s stiff expression soften.

“You said you would give me vacation, but you made me work as an escort. That was so inconsiderate. I’m sorry. You can go back and rest…”

Crackling.

Logan had no choice but to stop talking without realizing it when he suddenly heard the creepy sound of teeth grinding.

“Ah. Haha. This is not….”

“Aha. This is the escort service.”

I’m wearing armor and standing next to the kendo garage.

Then what…?

“Okay then. I’ll go take a rest like I said.”

bang!

After Logan closed the door, he could only stare blankly at Eilen’s back.

Then why are you doing this…?!

You have to tell me so you know!!

While swallowing a lament that I couldn’t say out loud.

* * * [It will calm down on its own over time. If you don’t know what I did wrong, just watch for a moment. If you keep saying that you need to know the reason, it gets more difficult. Trust these words from a father who has been married twice.]

Even after hearing it only briefly, I had the intuition that it was somewhat strange advice.

‘More than anything, your father had marriages of convenience.’

As I was sighing at the completely unhelpful words, I heard laughter coming from the communication port.

“…?”

[ha ha ha. Still, seeing as he was looking for the princess immediately after telling her to rest, it was definitely time to get married…]

Pop.

Logan cut off the communication, not wanting to hear any more nonsense.

Logan left the communication room with a long sigh and walked quickly without saying a word.

‘What kind of rest is rest? So I keep thinking about random things. After all, it’s better to get something done as quickly as possible.’

Logan decided to do something he had been putting off for the past few days.

‘And while I’m at it, I also go for a walk.’

Even if it’s a masked night walk.

Cracking.

Now, for some reason, I feel more accustomed to climbing over the wall and entering the mansion through the window rather than coming through the front door.

However, this time, the only goal was to avoid being seen by outsiders, so Logan entered through the window of the study like a ghost, opened the door without hesitation and walked down the hallway of the mansion, showing his strength.

“Ah! You’ve finally arrived. Congratulations on your boarding, Prince Logan. Should I address you as Your Excellency now?”

“Haha. Feel free to say it. How could I receive an engineering degree from Louis, the Archduke’s right-hand man?”

I also exchanged friendly greetings with my teacher’s adjutant and captain from my previous life, who happened to be passing through the hallway of the mansion.

“The Grand Duke has been waiting for you for several days. Why have you come now?”

Stop.

Although he belatedly realized why he had not come here for several days even though he needed something.

“Haha… I’ve had a lot of work to do so… I think Master will understand.”

“You seem a little angry. Haha, I’m sure it’s not because of Lord Logan. Let me guide you.”

I think it was because of me.

But after coming this far, I couldn’t go back.

Logan smiled wryly and waved his hand.

“It’s not an unknown route and I will find it. You must be busy, so please take care of your work.”

“If you say so.”

Logan looked at the back of Louis Hyon, who had parted ways with a smile, and forced his unsteady steps forward toward the underground training hall.

Purr.

“…It’s finally coming.”

A soft voice is heard as soon as the stone door is pushed open.

His voice was particularly strict during training, but today it sounds as if he is especially eager to live, which is probably an illusion…

“The guy who asked me to help him get over the wall is coming back in three days? I guess he thinks my time is running out.”

It’s not…

You couldn’t possibly have been here for three nights.

Without even saying anything.

Logan smiled awkwardly and took heavy steps.

“I’m sorry, Master.”

“what?”

“yes?”

“What am I sorry for?”

Logan immediately thought of the excuse that he was busy with work, but soon realized that that was not what his teacher wanted.

The fact that you don’t just want a good sound to listen to.

gulp.

“…I wanted to plant someone I can trust by your Majesty’s side. There are many things I want to do in the future.”

“So you threw this teacher, who was over 70 years old, back into office? Without even consulting me?”

All of a sudden, harsh words came out, but the spirit of life had noticeably decreased.

“But it’s better than making excuses that don’t work.”

Logan couldn’t help but smile at his teacher’s smile.

“That’s why I arranged it for you as an advisor, not a full-time position. Originally, I was planning to give you the position of Prime Minister…”

“What a terrible thing to say! If I had done that, I would have given you Chidogon directly at the coronation ceremony!”

“So I changed it. I was afraid that I, a person who contributed to starting a new era, would be beaten at the coronation ceremony.”

“Oh. Did you predict everything?”

“sure.”

“…It’s a shameless face, but it’s still better than the face you made up as an excuse a few weeks ago. Yes, it’s good. Raise your sword.”

“Yep!”

Sreung.

Looking at the young smile on his teacher’s face, Logan happily pulled out his sword.

However,

“Even if you saw beyond the wall for a moment, crossing it directly is another story. “If you can withstand the aura, I’ll beat you to death until you return.”

The overflowing red aura began to pressure his soul with a frightening force. After that, Logan was able to fully feel that his teacher had a surprisingly long back

end .

Even while the teacher was urging this genius student, he was only thinking about one wish in his heart:

‘Try to keep good. Just do it like you are now. I really hope you don’t change…’
