78. That, that crazy. (1)

For a moment, I wondered if I had heard it wrong.

Deliberately, I played a joke by sniffing the top of my head.

The tribe of wizards is more proud than anyone else.

Their pride in their own magic was also their pride.

For such a lofty wizard to ask someone to stroke his hair.

At least, it was something I had never heard of before.

“…… Big hum. Hmm.”

Let me make a puzzled expression.

Perhaps I misunderstood it, Lucia cleared her throat.

“…… Ah Okay. Got it. I’m not asking you to stroke me…… Acupressure. Okay. I was asking for a head massage.”

“I got it…… ?”

“Oh, that’s talking to yourself.”

I understand.

I don’t know who you’re talking to.

Magicians often did things that I couldn’t understand, so I guess it’s a kind of behavior.

Poof.

Lucia, standing in front of me, turned around with her back turned.

A gesture as if asking for a head acupressure massage.

…… Yes, I did it to Ciela yesterday.

“…… Lucia, do you have a headache? If so, the medicine…….”

“Ah, no. Not like that. It seems to have come together a bit…… ? Arthur?”

“…… ? Doesn’t it give you a headache if you stick together?”

“… ….”

Lucia suddenly fell silent.

I don’t understand where the hell people come together to ask for a chiropractor.

No. If your head hurts, this is it.

Tup.

I put the thumbs of her hands on Lucia’s neck,

“Uh, huh?”

“Tell me if it hurts.”

Kook.

Having said that, I pressed the back of her neck and turned her round and round.

A white, thin neck.

Because it was so thin that I wondered if it would break at any moment.

As delicate as possible, in a line that won’t hurt.

“──Well, hick? Oh! Now, wait a minute…….”

As I massaged her neck like that, a strange voice leaked out from Lucia.

“Does it hurt?”

“No, it’s not painful——?!”

A strangely soothing voice.

If it wasn’t painful, that’s fine. It may tickle a little, but it will definitely cool down when it’s over.

To be honest, the massage itself was a bit unfamiliar to me.

Judging from the fact that Lucia likes it, it seems that she is not bad at massaging.

It wasn’t much different in terms of how she did the chiropractor for Ciela’s hair.

The story of having its own jjambab.

Hagi article. Even after all this, her delicate skills are second to none of the sword masters.

Even though the neck massage was over a long time ago.

Lucia crouching her shoulders and breathing heavily.

When I saw that, I suddenly turned my gaze to a place other than my neck.

“Hick, whoa… ….”

“Lucia, would you like to give her a shoulder massage?”

“…… Uh?”

Uh, ramen would probably agree, right?

Slightly confident, I put a finger on her shoulder.

A small shoulder that can be held in one hand.

Lucia was surprised that she did not exercise, although she had a lean body.

Also, she had no muscle whatsoever.

…… She doesn’t just have flab, she just seems thin.

Isn’t it the kind of wizards that do nothing but study magic by locking themselves in her closet?

I massaged Lucia’s shoulders with a little more force than when I was massaging her neck.

“Huh, huh…… ! Awesome!”

“…… Lucia. How about doing a little exercise in the future? I’m saying this because I’m worried about my health. Even 30 minutes a day is fine.”

“Yes, luck, a little bit of exercise… ….”

Like a bookworm.

Lucia starts by saying that she hates exercising even while getting a massage.

“Lucia. Do you really have no idea?”

Uh, I guess I can do it this way.

As I was kneading my shoulders, I got a little more intuition and persistently pressed one spot round and round.

“Huh, huh, turn it off. Al, okay…… ! That, stop bothering me relentlessly…… !”

By the way.

Obviously I’m doing a sound massage, but my voice is strange.

A delightful voice that makes you think very strangely.

I don’t think Lucia is spouting with that kind of thought either.

Inma is stuck. Inma is stuck.

I wonder if he was giving a massage to Lucia’s shoulder, who was groaning strangely without thinking about it.

Pick.

Suddenly, the strength drained from Lucia’s body, and she collapsed.

“…… Uh huh?”

Chin.

Let’s grab it urgently.

Her face was red as if it were ripening, ready to explode at any moment, and eyes that could not focus and trembled suddenly came into her face.

“…… Lucia. Are you okay?”

Only then did she come to her senses.

Lucia’s eyes looked at me, and she spoke in a tone mixed with rare resentment.

“Stop, I asked you to stop several times… ….”

With eyes full of tears.

“…… It was bad really.”

Pick.

Having said that, Lucia collapsed again as if her power was cut off.

Her thighs trembled even when she fell.

Is it also lack of exercise? When I said that, I thought that the fallen Lucia would get up and hit me, so I swallowed it hard.

“… ….”

I don’t know for sure.

…… Massage is sealed for the time being.

I was convinced that it would be the case.

* * *

Several days have passed.

The afternoon of the next day after leaving the capital.

It was the time we arrived at Duke Reinhardt’s house.

“Are you here?”

“…… Are you with me?”

What I saw as soon as I entered the residence of Duke Reinhardt.

A middle-aged man with red hair, with a rather familiar face.

B.

And Cale von Reinhardt’s father, Aion.

Looking at the look on his face that said he knew he was coming…… It doesn’t seem like it happened by chance.

As if the phrase “The strongest sword in the empire” Isn’t useless.

It seems that he read the sign from a fairly long distance.

Not particularly surprising.

That person’s senses were not human, but radar level, even in the previous episode.

“…… I see you, my lord!”

“Yes, Lord Dagnes. Why don’t you salute after getting off the carriage?”

“Ah, yes!”

Dagnes, who has been fighting hard for the first time in a while, follows his words and gets off the carriage.

From noble mtl dot com

Soon after, the party followed him down.

Cielae Lynn. Until Lucia.

Aion’s expression was strange when he saw that.

“There were definitely three of us when we went. …… Why did the number increase when it was time to come?”

“…… Just a guest customer.”

I was stabbed with a lever and said so.

Because only two women have increased. Although it may seem strange.

There was no such strange part.

“Yes. I guess so. Even if one of them is the wizard Lucia, who broke off the engagement because there was someone you liked.”

“…… !”

This morning, Lucia, who hadn’t even tried to make eye contact with me since the so-called massage incident, flinched when she heard that.

I have nothing to say.

…… It was true that he used Lucia as an excuse to break off her engagement to Elena.

And Rin’s eyes widened as she got off the carriage, as if those words aroused her interest.

I tried to ignore it and turned around.

“…… How else did you know he was Lucia? It’s been a while since I joined. You probably haven’t seen it before.”

“My son likes him. Isn’t her face worth examining?”

Wrong. I can’t give you a chance to talk.

I sighed lightly and asked.

“Do you have anything else to say? Since then, my one and only son went to the Mutu Festival and won.”

“Okay. It seems that the change on Sir Dagnes’ side is more dramatic than on you.”

After saying that, Aion glanced at Dagnes.

I wanted to see the momentum for a while.

Hmm. He said it was interesting briefly.

“Sir Dagnes. Did you change your swordsmanship?”

“…… ! Yes! That’s right!”

What is it? Are you a real monster?

…… You say you only scan your body and notice that you changed your swordsmanship?

It’s something I couldn’t do even in the prime of the previous episode.

Even without swinging a sword, guess what type of swordsman it is.

Otherwise, it was possible to guess at what level or what swordsmanship to use when holding the sword.

I didn’t even hold a sword, so I couldn’t recognize the change in swordsmanship.

Let me look at Aion and Dagnes alternately as if I were looking at a strange person.

He tried to manage his expression, but burst into laughter.

“Kuhah. How come, the reaction has become cute. Did you really think I would have guessed that I would have changed my swordsmanship just by looking at it with my eyes?”

“…… Yes?”

“The field that used that swordsmanship was ‘Mutuje’. There’s no way the news didn’t reach you, right?”

…… Ah!

I realized it belatedly and put on an expression that I knew only then.

I thought it wouldn’t show through due to the characteristic of handling a great sword and the characteristic of not being fast with a sword.

Still, it seems that he knew because there were many people watching.

“Yes. Just kidding……. Nice to meet you. Lucia Latina, the sorceress of the Mage Tower, and Rin, the successor of Eunwolang, respectively?”

“…… Oh yes, yes! Nice to see you!”

“… ….”

An overly nervous Lucia bowed her upper body 90 degrees.

Lindo, unexpectedly bowed with manners…….

‘…… No, did he know how to say hello?’

I couldn’t help but be shocked when I saw that.

Until now, I thought that she was a northerner and had just arrived in the Empire, so she was not familiar with the manners of the Empire.

The way she bowed her head now was as per etiquette, even if it was a bit clumsy.

Strictly speaking, Aion is not a person of low status.

The head of the Duke of Reinhardt.

In other words, it was also the story of being a duke of this empire.

A position that anyone would bow down to say hello to.

However, the target that Rin did not bend was the only person in the empire who could be said to be higher than that.

‘Standing up straight in front of the emperor was the concept.’

What the hell is that human doing?

I roughly understood it. He only bowed his head to the ‘strong man’ he acknowledged. Maybe it’s like that.

It is a romantic condition. I was convinced that you were the only crazy person who practiced it even in front of the emperor.

Aion, who accepted the greeting, whispered in my ear in a small voice that the two of them couldn’t hear.

“I like the silver-haired child as a daughter-in-law. I was overly nervous, but isn’t there a cute corner?”

“Yes, Lucia often does…… No. Is it not like that?”

I cut off my words halfway through, almost unconsciously arguing.

Aion is a very mischievous person even though he is not fit for the title of duke.

If you accept it, even if you stay up all night, it won’t be enough.

“Let’s go in and talk. Go in——”

“Hey.”

Rin, who cut off my words, looked at Aion.

The two of them briefly cross each other’s eyes as if asking what’s going on.

A brief silence followed.

At the end of that silence, Rin put her hand on the sword that hung around her waist…….

No. Why would you put your hand on the sword?

Rin put her hand on the handle of the sword and said.

“Come sparring with me. …… Now.”

“You, what are you… ….”

“——Huh.”

Aion, who heard that, let out a blank laugh.

After checking Rin’s face, he must have heard it wrong.

Looking at the determined expression, he was convinced that he hadn’t heard wrong.

He burst into laughter.

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Cale, cancel what you just said. Yeah, this one is more of a hit. Very…… Do you like it!”

“… ….”

Seureung, Aion pulling out his sword.

And Rin, who saw that, slowly drew his sword.

I couldn’t see Dagnes’s expression, Lucia’s expression, or Siela’s expression at that moment.

For sure. He must have had a face similar to mine.

100% Complete astonishment.

That crazy Dalian ghost…… Geary had an accident.
