Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With

24 – 24. Eastern Knights (1)

“Then, let’s try to leave.”

While I didn’t see him, I got up from the imperial table with a thin Miya.

And then he bowed his head to the two princesses.

A perfect give and take.

I have received adequate compensation and will never be associated with them again.

With that in mind, I went down to the banquet hall with my senior.

“Yes, Veil. Make sure you go in carefully.”

Irina answered in a harsh tone in front of the VIPs.

On the other hand, Lydia didn’t say anything to me.

They just look at me sullenly for rejecting their offer in exchange for an ambiguous reward.

‘It’s bloody.’

I pretended not to know her and quickly caught the carriage.

And, leaving the fancy banquet hall behind, we returned to the north.

To my quiet, cozy office.

The two princesses watched this from the first floor gate.

Until the carriage completely disappears.

“… .”

After that, Irina smiled.

And he looks at Lydia with a cold expression.

“you… .”

She looked as fresh as a girl in front of the escort driver.

When he disappeared, he glared at his younger brother with harsh eyes like a silver wolf.

“What do you mean by a tour of the knights?”

However, Lydia did not flinch despite her sister’s glare.

Instead, he looked down at her arrogantly, with his devil-like red eyes flashing.

“Literally. “I tried to show the welfare of our knights to this guy who was a commoner.”

The 3rd princess placed her hand on her heart and spoke proudly.

“Why do we covet commoner knights when there are already enough knights?”

Irina walked closer to Lydia.

And I looked down so hard that a shadow appeared.

“It’s just – what should I say. “Is it because you don’t want to see commoners’ blood ties tangling together?”

The 3rd princess grinned, showing her sharp fangs.

Then he crossed his arms alone and spoke quietly.

“It’s disgusting, knowing that he’s an orphan and even trying to sympathize with him.”

Irina furrowed her eyebrows at the youngest’s sharp analysis.

“Sympathy… “What are you thinking so negatively?”

“Because your intentions are obvious? “You can’t win against me with force, so appeal with emotion.”

Lydia shrugged.

And instead, she stood even closer to her sister.

“I don’t care how much research you’ve done on her. “An ambitious knight ultimately chooses a superior master.”

A look full of pride.

Seeing that, Irina snorted and laughed at her younger brother.

“ambition… ? “Do you think Bale is an ambitious knight after hearing about the garden just now?”

“That’s stupid… “You still don’t know?”

Soon the princess opened her red eyes brightly.

And he said with a grin.

“That garden is not just a vegetable farm.”

“what… ?”

Lydia turned her head and looked at the mana trees planted on both sides of the imperial palace.

And he spoke calmly.

“He plans to grow magic plants in the garden.”

Magic seconds.

It is a mysterious plant that inherently contains mana.

“I guess they plan to extract it and make an elixir.”

At those words, Irina touched her chin with her hand.

but.

No matter how he is, there is absolutely no reason to turn down the path to success.

Nevertheless, looking at the fact that he chose something like a sunstone instead of a relationship with the imperial family.

It may be a sophisticated concealment technique to grow without the help of the royal family.

“I deliberately went to the Frontier Knights and made a priest elixir. And they are trying to increase their power without the nobles knowing and prove it at official events such as national sparring.”

When the youngest princess came up with a plausible reasoning, Irina became thoughtful.

“no… .”

I was planning on getting you back under my wing somehow!

If you become a celebrity like that, you won’t even care about yourself anymore.

Because I will go straight to the crown prince or the former emperor.

“I should have stopped you from fighting Richard… .”

Irina regrets not stopping Veil during the appointment ceremony.

I knew well that he was strong in the past.

But, I never thought I would wake up even faster after the fight with Richard… .

If he knew that he had become a sword master in the future, he would ignore himself even more.

In the end, Irina lowered her head with a sad face due to repeated gloomy thoughts.

“You still look like a high-level sword expert, but it wouldn’t be a joke if you drank elixir.”

Lydia hinted as if stabbing her with a dagger.

From noble mtl dot com

“Because it was so bad that it destroyed the stage.”

Smash the stage… ?

Irina raised her head at her words.

And then I looked intently at the relaxed Lydia.

“you… “Did you know it was Veil’s doing?”

“I know my knight well. “Bashu is not yet at the level to use such incredible techniques.”

The quiet air continues.

Soon the two walked away from each other.

“It gives me goosebumps. Knowing that, did Bashu show off in front of the nobles?”

“He said he was glad that the Prime Minister praised him.”

The two were shocked that they had been hiding Veil’s skills from each other.

“… .”

A banquet hall without guests.

The two princesses began to refrain from speaking as if they sensed each other’s intentions.

Thanks to this, the Eastern Imperial Palace was filled with only the sound of repairing the broken stage.

Soon Lydia turned to see Batsch returning.

And before leaving, I spoke quietly to Irina.

“Fight as much as you want. In the end, he will serve the better master among us.”

Irina gave no answer to her question.

I just turn my head cynically.

Irina is left alone at the entrance to the banquet hall.

Soon, Allen, completely injured, walked next to her.

“Allen… You had a hard time. “Are you feeling okay?”

“I’m fine.”

Unlike before, when he was arrogant, he looked calmer.

Soon the bastard bowed his head in front of her.

“Why are you so down, you fought well… .”

Irina was taken aback by his appearance, which was so different from usual.

“sorry.”

The count’s famous bastard.

He apologized to someone for the first time.

“Actually, I have been ignoring the princess’s actions all along.”

Seeing Allen’s serious appearance for the first time in her life, Irina also became serious.

“When I heard that you were suddenly creating an order of knights, I thought it was just a bluff.”

The bastard raised his head.

He looked up at the princess with serious eyes.

“So, I also planned to build a decent career and then leave. But I never thought he would be so sincere… .”

Eyes full of will.

Irina, touched by those eyes, looked forward to his next words.

Eventually, Allen confidently spoke in a voice full of ambition.

“I will leave the knighthood.”

“uh?”

Irina wondered if she had heard wrong.

“Well, what… ? “Did I hear it wrong?”

When the princess asked again, the knight shook his head.

He nailed her firmly, still with a serious expression on his face.

“You heard correctly. “I’m going to quit.”

Just by looking at his expression, he is a hero of the empire who will be training at a closed facility right away.

However, he firmly said that he would hit the knight.

“I have no intention of becoming Irina’s face.”

He shook his head with a skeptical look on his face.

“I have no intention of burying my bones in the new knighthood.”

Irina was left speechless by his confident words.

After sparring, Allen lost his faith and perseverance.

Seeing that, Irina clenched both fists with a stern expression.

‘veil… ‘What on earth have you done to the child!’

The princess also looked at Bashu with an embarrassed expression.

Lydia and the Eastern Knights seen in the distance.

Their reaction was not much different from Allen’s.

“I’m sorry, Princess… . Make a big mistake at a precious banquet… .”

“No, that’s enough. On the contrary, I will praise you for fighting until the end as I commanded.”

The height of the three heads is quite different.

Lydia smiled and promised him a gift.

“Go and get some rest today. “I have to prepare for the upcoming sparring match as well.”

The 3rd princess tried to leave the banquet hall leisurely.

However, she had no choice but to stand still.

“I apologize, princess… .”

Because Bashu said something unexpected.

“I will not participate in the competition.”

“what?”

The eyes of the junior knights who were listening next to me sparkled.

Bashu has always been stronger than anyone else.

Because he was so upset.

“Seo, senior. “What do you mean by that all of a sudden?”

“That’s right, if the senior doesn’t leave, who will join our Eastern Knights?”

Large, dark men.

They tried to persuade Bashu carefully.

However, Bashu shook his head resolutely, as if he had already made up his mind.

“I still lack a lot. “If we go to the game like this, it will only tarnish the reputation of the Eastern Knights.”

He mutters to himself while clutching his thighs.

“I will return after fully training my body so that I will not fall prey to any tricks.”

The juniors pursed their lips at the humble appearance of their senior.

I couldn’t understand what he was saying about becoming stronger from here on out.

“… .”

However, Lydia was different.

Knowing that the skills displayed on stage were Bale’s, she understood Batsch’s shock anew.

“Yes, if that is what you want, there is nothing we can do.”

In the end, the youngest princess sighed deeply.

And with a bitter smile on his face, he patted Bassho.

“Postpon the match and practice alone for a while before returning.”

Batshu barely said hello with his trembling body before heading to his dorm.

Lydia looked at him like that and sighed.

“ha… “Veil guy.”

‘veil… ?’

Bronzed, muscular knights.

They silently watched the little princess leave.

And soon after she disappeared.

They looked at each other with serious expressions.

“Who on earth is Veil, doing something like that?”

“This is the defense engineer who intervened in the sparring earlier.”

The junior frowned at the mention of defense engineer.

“That guy, wasn’t he pushed out by Brother Bashu?”

“It looks like you did something to your brother in the process of falling out.”

The two men thought deeply about each other.

Soon, Tau, a senior with a cow tattoo on his arm, opened his eyes.

“Did you see Basshu-senpai earlier?”

“I lost my leg a lot.”

“Yeah, that guy called Veil. “He must have used all kinds of tricks to subdue his brother.”

Tau was breathing heavily.

And he began to reason with his fierce eyes.

“You mean a trick?”

“Yes, you saw it a little while ago. Those strong legs were shaking like crazy.”

The knight imagined Bale, who looked like a gisaeng brother and had a sinister smile.

However, the scene where such a skinny guy makes Bashu kneel was not depicted at all.

“I think they probably used paralyzing poison.”

The junior’s eyes twinkled as if he were agreeing with the senior’s words.

Thanks to this, the chicken tattoo on his shoulder wriggled.

“I definitely suspect it based on the symptoms.”

When even his younger brother agreed, Tau took a deep breath.

Then I looked to the north, where the Subangsa Temple building is.

“Tell the secretary tomorrow.”

The rugged knight’s nose twitches.

“We will personally deliver the sunstone he will receive.”

He was ready to charge at the bullfighter like an angry bull.

“I’ll have to go and check it out for myself.”
