Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 85

Episode 85

“The Archduke has passed through McLane Castle!”

“Really? I’ll be there soon.”

After hearing the report, Padric had a smile on his face.

These days, everything is going well in Yeongji.

There was no way I wouldn’t have been happy to hear that the son who had accomplished all that was coming back.

The only thing that mattered was the trend of Bipros, the family’s archenemy, but there had been no significant changes yet.

‘Well, even that is thanks to my son’s teacher.’

My son went to the capital to prepare measures.

I couldn’t help but look forward to what kind of answer he had prepared.

“It looks like you might be a little later than you think.”

“hmm?”

“He’s coming in a carriage.”

“Not a horse, but a carriage? Why? There won’t be any luggage.”

“That’s right for me too…”

The messenger who had been running like crazy from Macline Castle broke into a cold sweat.

However, since it was not an emergency situation and it was no use blaming the soldier for his hard work, Padric nodded and sent the soldier away.

But after hearing the story, I couldn’t concentrate on work at all and my thoughts kept drifting to my son.

‘Since when was I such a warm father?’

I let out a bitter, self-deprecating smile, but it didn’t feel too bad.

‘It’s a carriage… Are you bringing guests?’

Then I couldn’t just sit back and wait.

Padric quickly left the office, putting aside his work.

A strange scene was already unfolding outside.

“The Archduke will be back soon.”

“I heard you’re bringing a guest?”

“Let’s go!”

As if the rumor had already spread, the Gasols were busy saying things similar to their own guesses.

The lord himself was here and there was no special order, but the lord’s house was becoming noisy.

It was a strange situation, but Padric was glad for the hassle.

‘There won’t be any problem if I hand over the position right away.’

For some reason, Padric’s steps became faster due to a sense of pride.

* * *

“Loyalty! Castle!”

“effort.”

After briefly greeting the soldiers guarding the entrance to the town, an exclamation was heard in Logan’s ears as he closed the carriage door.

“Wow, it’s a lot neater than I thought?”

“It’s a place that was recently built.”

Although he spoke humbly on the outside, the corners of Logan’s mouth were turning up slightly.

“This was all achieved through our princess’s plan. Isn’t it wonderful, princess?”

“That’s amazing, Confucius. My lady chose her partner well!”

The two servants, who got along well together, took turns chatting.

In a way, it was rude to arbitrarily interrupt the owners’ conversation, but Logan and Eilen did not blame it.

Thanks to the efforts of the two servants throughout the entire way back to McLane, we were able to at least exchange this conversation.

It wasn’t long before Logan saw that and started laughing.

“Princess, Prince. We have arrived at the residence.”

Coachman Henry’s voice was heard and the carriage door opened.

“hmm?”

Logan got off the carriage and saw a large crowd of people, including his father and his retainers.

For a moment, my face stiffened as I wondered what was going on, but when I saw everyone smiling, my worries naturally disappeared.

‘okay. Not yet. There’s still time.’

After calming down his nervous mind for a moment, Logan smiled as he saw the many eyes looking at him.

“I’m home.”

Naturally, it was the turn to greet people, but even though so many people were gathered, not even a word of greeting was heard.

Logan, who was puzzled, was able to immediately understand the situation when he saw that people’s eyes were focused behind him.

widely.

“This is McLine.”

A person gets off the carriage with a light exclamation.

He was walking lightly, wearing ‘armor’ that covered his entire body without any special patterns engraved on it.

That person, with long hair similar to McLane’s red hair but brighter and more shiny, with distinct features and beautiful blue eyes, was clearly a ‘woman’.

– The Grand Duke brought the woman.

The eyes of everyone watching widened.

“Wow, it’s pretty.”

“Who could it be?”

“It’s obvious.”

Murmur.

Breaking the momentary silence, the crowd began to stir.

In front of them, Padric opened his mouth with slightly widened eyes.

“Okay. Welcome back, Logan. By the way, who is that lady?”

A smile was already spreading on his face as he asked that question.

‘I thought you weren’t interested in women.’

So, even though he was just a baron, he arrogantly believed that he was his son’s teacher and even asked the swordsman for a favor.

But now that I see it, I was worried for no reason.

‘I’m good at it, but it was pointless.’

Although the armor was a bit noticeable, even women could afford to be armed if they were going to travel a long distance.

With a little excitement, Padric looked at the woman who had already become his son’s lover in his heart.

And the answer that came back nicely met those expectations.

“This is my fiancée, Princess Eileen Floyd.”

“oh!!”

“The Archduke’s fiancee?!”

“oh my god!”

Murmur.

In an instant, the surroundings became noisy, and Padric looked at his son’s fiancée with a big smile.

“Oh! Welcome, princess. I am the princess…”

“And I am also the new talent to recruit to the McLane Knights, father.”

“Padrick Mac, who will be the general manager… what?”

“Princess Eileen Floyd. She is my fiancee and a new talent we have recruited into the Order.”

“Uh, heh. I’ve been having a hard time hearing lately… Would you mind saying that again, son?”

“They said she was a talented person to recruit to the Knights. She is also my fiancée.”

“Fiancee and knight? Heh heh. My ears…huh. Dwayne what did Logan just say?”

Padrick shook his head as if that couldn’t be possible and looked back at Dwayne.

“As expected, you are Confucius.”

“what?”

“The moment I saw the lady in armor, I got the feeling that this definitely wasn’t normal. That’s what the Archduke does.”

“Huh…”

Padric’s expression becomes blank as he realizes that he didn’t hear wrong.

“This is Eileen of the Floyd family. I will do my best in the future as your daughter-in-law and knight. Father.”

“What on earth…?”

Eilen’s clear voice completely confused his otherwise complex examination.

“What do you mean?”

“Confucius, your fiancée is your fiancée.”

“They say you’re a knight…?”

“What do you mean?”

“I don’t know either.”

As the noise from the crowd around them grew louder, Padrick was the first to come to his senses.

“Wait a minute. If you are Floyd… Count Floyd?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“The count’s princess is your fiancé… It’s all good, but a knight?”

“Yes. I will have you join the Knights.”

“So. When you invite your fiancée to join the knights… what kind of nonsense is that?!”

Padric’s voice, almost like a scream, echoed everywhere.

“Heh heh. Lord Heinkel, is this possible?”

“It’s unprecedented, but…”

“But?”

“If Confucius says he will do it, who will stop it? In our territory.”

Knight Commander Heinkel answered Dwayne’s question with a hollow laugh.

When Dwayne nods his head as if he understands his embarrassed expression and pats him on the shoulder.

A dwarf who had come running late and was watching the scene from a distance was clicking his tongue and shaking his head.

“Human woman, run away. I don’t know what it is, but you’re being deceived, tsk tsk.”

This little girl’s life is going wrong.

Hamar clicked his tongue thinking that, then made eye contact with Logan and hurriedly turned his head.

‘what? There’s no way you can hear it from this street.’

I awkwardly hide my expression as I feel cold sweat running down my back.

Fortunately, applause suddenly broke out right next to the lord and the ‘devil’s’ gaze returned.

Clap clap clap.

“Welcome! Sister-in-law… Ugh. Uh, mother?”

“Ronian. Now is not the time for you to step forward.”

Padric looked at his younger son, whose cheek was pinched by his mother, with bewildered eyes, then turned his gaze back to his older son.

“…why?”

A word that seems to have been drawn from deep within the heart.

It was a short word, but I could clearly feel the numerous emotions contained within it.

However, Logan answered calmly, perhaps unaware of the complex emotions or pretending not to know.

“It’s just as you heard. He’s a talented person.”

“She’s a girl? And she’s your fiancee?”

“That’s why I got engaged. It’s a huge amount of money.”

“Jaewon?! Huh. Oh my… just huh? The force is definitely… huh. It’s amazing, but still…” The

strong force felt from Eilen’s whole body made Padrick even more confused, but he took a strong stance. I maintained my attitude.

“No matter what! How can you make a girl from a noble family into a knight? And that too your fiancee!”

“I see no reason not to.”

“You’re really out of your mind. Haha. How can you do this…”

Dwayne spoke carefully next to Padrick, who was on the verge of laughing.

“Don’t you think Confucius has something on his mind?”

“Do you understand that, Dwayne? What, am I the only one who finds this situation strange?”

“…Well, it’s what Prince Logan does.”

“Huh. It’s frustrating. Logan! Why don’t you talk to me separately? How much of what you’re saying right now…”

Padric tried to remain calm and continue the conversation, but Logan didn’t give him any room and changed the subject.

“Oh, I have to contact the Floyd family to say that we have arrived safely. Your father will also come with you. Shouldn’t you say hello?”

“What what?”

Padric was dragged into the communication room half-consciously, still half-conscious.

* * * [okay. You arrived safely. Is your health okay?]

“It’s only been a week, Dad.”

[For this Abby, that week felt like a month…]

“Baron McLane, are you listening too!”

[Hmm. ah. iced coffee. Baron McLane…? nice to see you. [This is Roberts Floyd.]

“Count. Nice to meet you. This is Padric McLane. To be honest, I’m a little surprised to suddenly contact you like this, so please forgive me if there are some problems with my expression or attitude.”

[haha. The same goes for me. It was an important matter between families, but the children’s opinions were so strong that I was unable to contact them first. I’m sorry for making you contact me in the first place.]

“Haha. No. It’s a good relationship, isn’t it? It’s good to respect children’s opinions unless they are particularly opposed to it. But good things are good things, and I’ve heard some strange stories. She said she would write an article…”

[Haaaa…]

Padric was trying his luck cautiously, but an immediate sigh came from beyond the communication port.

It was a deep sigh that made Logan and Eilen, who were watching from behind, flinch.

[…Please take care of that too. I’ll give it to you, in-law.]

“Father. No way….”

“In-law. You’re really against it, but these kids are insisting?!”

Padric is so pleased that he cuts off Eilen’s conversation and walks out.

[I decided to allow it. It’s what my daughter wants so much. But she’s a well-raised daughter. Please….]

“ha ha ha. no. There is no need to break customs even if your in-laws do not want to. I know it well…”

“Father!!”

Padric suddenly shouts from behind and looks at his future daughter-in-law with an absurd expression.

[…This is what I wanted. Please be kind to me, in-law.]

Who? The count changed his words with an expression of disapproval.

“Huh?”

Padric had no choice but to look at his son and his wife with a puzzled expression.

Unlike his daughter-in-law-to-be, who smiled awkwardly as if she had a conscience, the son had a shameless smile on his face. “As you heard,

the Count gave his permission. “Father.”

“First of all… let’s talk about that later.”

After Padric changed the topic with a stern expression, the conversation went faster.

And only about 30 minutes later.

[Thank you. Have a nice day as soon as possible. I will contact you soon. I hope the day when we can actually meet face to face comes soon.]

“I feel the same way.”

The communication ended with a formal greeting.

Ji Ji-jik.

Unlike the communication that ended in a friendly atmosphere, there was silence in the communication room for a while. “Even if the Count said he would allow your daughter to become a knight, I would still be against it.”

The words Padric left before leaving made the man and woman who were standing still sigh. But they soon nodded with stern expressions and

left

the room together. * * *

“Still, we have overcome one hurdle.”

“You must have been tired from coming so far, but thank you for your hard work.”

“

No, it’s not. Confucius really worked hard.”

“I don’t know when the day will be set, but now I think we can just stick to the plan.”

Logan said that, but he didn’t believe that that day would actually come without any trouble.

The start of the civil war, and what he wanted to do before and after it. What you are doing.

The aftereffects that it will create will not leave any room for a comfortable ceremony.

Fortunately, the other person who did not know that fact did not seem to pay much attention to it.

“Yes. It won’t disappoint. The Knights Templar. Finally…”

His interest seemed to be focused on something completely different from the engagement.

Logan unconsciously remembered that he looked more attractive for some reason and shook his head in surprise.

‘Come to your senses. Is now the time for this?’

Clap!

“…Confucius?”

Eilen looked at Logan slapping himself in surprise.

Logan smiled awkwardly at the sight and hurriedly changed his mind.

“Haha. So when do you plan to start participating in the training? But first, take a few days off…”

“It’s okay if you don’t try. “We’ll start right away tomorrow,”

Eilen answered firmly, as if there was nothing to think about.

Logan couldn’t help but chuckle at that stubborn appearance. He was

very talented and his determination was clear.

But Logan couldn’t be sure that everything would work out well. ‘

Can I overcome it with just that?’

Eilen’s challenge.

In a way, it was also Logan’s own challenge.

And right now, he didn’t have time.

‘At best, two months. In that time, we have to finish the final maintenance and start the war.’

Even if Eilen couldn’t adapt by then, I couldn’t wait.

“So now I’ll be in the knights’ dormitory?”

“…It’ll be a little difficult to get there. “It might be difficult for the other knights.”

“That’s a bit unfortunate.”

“Instead, I’ll give you a room close to the training ground.”

…Seeing his overly proactive attitude, it didn’t seem like he would have any problems adapting.

As expected . It would be good if he could do it, or he could make the ‘Steel Rose’ bloom in another way.

Logan organized his thoughts like that and guided Eilen to the room he had planned in advance.

* * * As there were many people who saw it, rumors about Eilen spread quickly.

However,

“I heard the Grand Duke has started doing strange things again?”

“What? What?”

“They said he brought a woman to the knights. A noble woman too! My fiancee!”

“Wow! And?”

“Huh? And then what? A knight’s fiancée…!”

“Is that the end?”

“Huh?”

“I… thought you were going to break through the mountain again.”

“Ah…”

“It’s no big deal. Just eat.”

“…I see.”

The impact was much weaker than someone’s worries.
