Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With

53. Secret Society

Horses’ hooves trample the barren roads of Northon.

The beautiful white horse clattered along the dull streets.

As I reached the end of the street, an old office building caught my eye.

The white horse stopped in front of that office, not another luxurious mansion.

Well-polished military boots come down from under the saddle.

Soon, smooth thighs and beautifully blooming red uniforms.

The next leader of the Knights of Crimson Flame, Ekina.

She arrived at her defense engineer’s office, adjusting the lapels of her uniform.

「Purrr-.」

“It’s okay, Lucy.”

A white horse tired from running on rough ground.

I calmed down my pet that lives here and headed to the back of her office together.

“Why would someone like a sword master be in a place like this…?” .”

Ekin With doubts in my head, I headed to the back of her office, where the smell of dirt was thick.

However, the moment I arrived there.

Her puzzlement actually got worse.

“Thorman clan… ?”

The Thorman are a minority race that is so rough that even the troops of the original empire avoid it.

Because they were farming behind the office.

Some people were sitting in the pavilion in front of the garden and even eating.

“Okay, everyone, eat your fill! “I have to fill my quota today!”

Hot soup and freshly baked bread.

They were reputed to be fierce, but instead of double-edged axes and spears, they were happily eating bread and soup.

“Hey… “You’ve finally arrived!”

Among them, I made eye contact with a particularly scary-looking man.

“What, what…?” ?”

Echina swallowed deeply at the approaching huge figure.

His rugged silhouette made my hand go to his waist.

However, her man posed no threat to her.

She just bows her head and bows politely.

“Please come quickly. I was waiting for you, but since you were late, I was having a meal first.”

That rough clan is so polite to themselves.

Eki I pointed to her face with a shocked expression.

“You know me… ?”

“I know. Lord Bale has asked me to escort you to his office when you arrive today.”

Orn slowly approached and grabbed the reins of Lucy, the Rottweiler.

And he skillfully moved the delicate white horse to the stable so as not to startle it.

Meanwhile, the female prosecutor rolled her eyes and looked at the tattoo on her right shoulder.

An absolute bear tattoo that can be received by the last person who wins in a bloody battle with hundreds of men.

This stable keeper he encountered was the highest leader of the Thorman clan.

‘Bail Mikhail….’

Only then did Ekina realize the existence of Veil.

She said that it was not a coincidence that she lost.

But.

This was just the beginning.

Arrived at the office on the first floor, guided by Orn.

There were two muscular young men sitting on a bench.

He even took off his top….

“Wow… !”

Eki I hurriedly pretended to cover her face with both hands.

And she asked in a puzzled voice.

“Aren’t you knights of the East?”

“Is that so?”

The exhausted knights answered the female knight’s question indifferently.

Echina, her scarlet eyes flashing between her fingers.

Hard and well-toned abs caught my eye.

“If you’re a knight, be a knight and keep your bearings. What on earth is going on now?”

“If you worked here, you wouldn’t be able to last even 30 minutes in that pretty outfit, right?”

Tau smiled cynically and looked at the female knight.

Ekina swallows deeply while looking at that face.

“What on earth is the vanguard of the Eastern Knights doing here?”

“What am I doing, I’m training.”

The vanguard said, pointing to the hoe that was kept next to him.

An artifact-grade hoe made by refining magic stones, and even a pickaxe.

They were all expensive weapons that Lydia had made for her to work hard in the fields.

Echina frowned as she looked at the equipment.

“Those farm tools are training tools?”

“Yes, these are quite useful.”

Tau stood up, easing his tense muscles.

And then he prepared to go out to the garden again with his junior.

“Let’s go, Bijou. “Spring is coming soon.”

“I’m already looking forward to spring. Senior!”

A conversation that seems like a conspiracy.

And even a sinister expression.

“Just try to sprout…. “I will spray water right away and even control the sunlight.”

“Tsk tsk… “We will ‘germinate’ it somehow.”

Ekina looked at the backs of the two knights proudly walking out into the bright sunlight.

Majestic appearance as if they were going out to subdue a monster.

However, I was shocked to hear that he was barely going to sprout with that kind of appearance.

“What, what…?” How?!”

Strong mana located in the center of their chest.

I can’t believe I’m using more power in the garden than the veteran Red Flame Knights.

“Could it be that that kind of field work is really helpful for training…? ?”

Ekina, her pride hurt, walked up the stairs to the first floor, biting her lip tightly.

Soon, as she reached the second floor, she made eye contact with a subangsa woman who was smoking a cigarette by her window.

A woman with her hair cut short and with tear spots under her eyes.

She may seem angry at first glance, but her face widens when she sees Echina.

“Aren’t you a senior?”

“Miya… ? “Are you part of this too?”

Miya smiled at the sight of her senior from her cadet days, meeting her after a long time.

“No, I came here to hang out for a while-.”

“Your expression has improved a lot? “Before, I thought I was going to die because of my senior.”

The female prosecutor spoke with a smile for her junior, whom she had not seen in a long time.

Then Miya smiled like a girl and said harsh words.

“Yes, that bastard went out.”

“Really? Since she comes from a lordly family, I thought even the upper level of Subangsa would not be able to defeat her easily….”

The two walked down the office hallway together.

Miya raised the corners of her mouth, thinking of someone with her back to her.

Her own life has become more comfortable since he came in.

“Our ‘treasure’ took care of it.”

“Treasure… ?”

“Yes, it must be a lot of luck, no matter where it came from.”

Miya said as she turned the doorknob of her office.

“But what are you doing here, senior?”

When Miya asked in a friendly way, Ekina hesitated to answer her for a moment.

Then she surrounded herself with sentences she had barely chosen.

“Ah… “I have some business to do with a knight named Bale?”

“Huh? To him?”

Miya tilts her head like a cat at the word veil.

Her flowing hair on the side tickled her cheek.

“Yes, we know each other, right?”

“That’s right, he’s my immediate junior.”

Miya opened the door.

Then he showed her the unfolded view of her office and spoke to her.

“He’s the lucky one I was talking about.”

A splendid interior that belies its appearance as an office.

I was sitting at the gilded desk, looking at the documents, and looked up at Miya who opened the front door and came in.

“Hey, Veil! “Senior has arrived-.”

Miya friendly tapped my shoulder as I held her paper.

From noble mtl dot com

Ekina is appalled by that sight.

A few days ago, she felt strange as her junior treated the person who had threatened to kill her in a friendly manner.

“Senior… “Did I tell you not to open the front door wide?”

I muttered with an annoyed face.

Then, Miya laughed heartily and shook my shoulder like a toy.

“But, a very important guest has come to the office?”

“Are you a distinguished guest?”

She raised her head with an annoyed expression.

And that moment.

She made eye contact with the vice-leader of Hongyeom, whom she had visited and threatened a few days ago.

Ekina, when her eyes meet mine, her body automatically shrinks.

However, Miya naturally introduced her senior without even knowing that she was scared.

“Of course, one of the empire’s representative knights. “He is the vice-captain of the Red Flame – this is what I mean -“

The corners of my mouth naturally rose at the grand introduction.

In contrast, Ekina sighed as if she was embarrassed.

“Oh, are you here? “Are you a little late?”

I put down all the documents.

And I greeted Ekina leisurely.

“Bale, veil… What do you mean ‘are you here’? “This person is also a senior to me.”

Miya, embarrassed, looked at me and Ekina alternately.

But instead of getting angry at me, the female knight tried to smile and look around at Miya.

“No, Miya…” I’m okay.”

Miya paid no heed to Ekina’s words and came behind my chair.

And then….

“Hurry up and apologize to your senior.”

He lightly pinched both my cheeks and stretched them out like jelly.

When she saw that, her face became thoughtful.

She hurriedly tried to stop Miya.

“Gwae, I heard it’s okay!! Could you please leave for a moment? “I have something important to talk about with Bale and, no, my junior!”

“I understand-.”

Miya looked at me intently as she left.

A look in their eyes as if they were talking about something important.

I smiled and told him not to worry.

“Ha….”

When the cat-like junior disappeared, the Hongyeom vice-captain sighed in relief.

“Looking at Miya’s reaction, it seems like she has no idea what kind of person you are.”

Ekina looked down at me with nervous eyes.

I responded to her eyes with a cold expression.

“Unless I commit evil deeds like you, you will never see my real face.”

“….”

The female prosecutor, pricked by her conscience, pursed her lips.

I handed her the magic document I had prepared in advance.

“If you arrive, please sign here.”

“Contract of oath… ?”

Ekina took the paper imbued with her magic and her face distorted.

‘It has to be that way.’

Contract of oath.

It is an absolute contract that is established when the person who made the contract and the person who agrees to it drop a drop of each other’s blood on the document.

Anyone who violates this will lose their life in return.

It was originally an imperial item that was difficult to even see in my previous life.

Leah, whose health recovered thanks to me, gave me this as a gift, like a receipt.

“It was very difficult to save-. “Don’t make a mistake and sign quickly.”

I pointed to the leather sofa with my finger.

“Damn….”

“Can you hear all the muttering?”

Ekina went there with a desperate look on her face.

And the moment I flopped down on the sofa. She was surprised to see that there was a warlock elder wearing a black robe next to her.

“Sat, Elder Tolkien… ? Why are you here….”

“I was caught too….”

“Where are you going, leader? Are you alone?”

“Church, the leader….”

An elder stammering as if he is frightened.

I answered for him.

“The cult leader is dead.”

Her face turned white at my firm words.

Among the crown prince’s shadows, he never dreamed that even someone who was more veteran than him would suffer.

“The first princess has already dealt with the guy who committed arson with you.”

I calmly got up from the chair.

And then he approached them with a stern expression.

“Now, you have even sold the name of the master you served.”

Then he sat down between them and kindly put his arm around the two people’s shoulders.

“In other words, he is a traitor.”

I proudly held out the needle that was lying on the table in front of Echina.

The elder has already signed a contract a long time ago.

“Now there is no place you can return to.”

Now only she remains.

“Sign. When you give them a chance to live.”

The female prosecutor picked up her needle with her trembling hands.

And she slowly cut her own finger.

Blood drops fall on the document.

She then signed her own name with her quill.

“Okay, this is the formation of a secret knighthood.”

「Knight Commander, Echina Orchid. (Jin, Commander of the Red Flame Knights)」

「Vice-captain, Allen Meatloaf. (Jin, Commander of the Verdant Knights)」

「Tolkien Arienta, exclusive magician of the Knights. (Nemesis cult leader Jin)」

「Tau Demiros, leader of the knights’ vanguard. (Eastern Knights Vanguard Leader)」

I looked at the number of people and smiled with satisfaction.

If you raise these guys well, the two knight commanders will be on the same side.

“Everyone, don’t worry too much, it’s not an official organization until the crown prince starts a civil war.”

I sat on the sofa and looked at the depressed female swordsman and warlock.

I took the continent’s best black magic executive and next leader into my hands.

“What is the name of the knights…?”

“Well… It’s a name…”

There is one name that suits you all.

I looked at Ekina silently.

“This is the Knights of Rehabilitation.”

“Rehabilitation?”

A female knight who is disgusted by a name that just looks bad.

However, he soon kept his mouth shut due to my facial expression.

“If you want to change your name, work hard to rehabilitate yourself. Until then, it will be that name for the rest of your life.”

“Okay…”

The first leader of the Knights of Rehabilitation bowed his head as if he was impressed by my glorious naming skills.

And then he muttered in a creeping voice.

‘Now, all the dark shadows of the crown prince have been removed.’

Now all that’s left is an alliance between the princesses….

I turned my head and took a breath.

The Samid leopard skin laid out in front of the entrance caught my eye.

‘Let’s start with Lydia first.’

Finally, we also need to recruit ‘Eastern Knight Commander Jin’.
