Chapter 10: Contracts (2)

I ."

Bianca had a hesitant look on her face and couldn't speak easily.

Jamie in front of you is a warlock.

Although he became such a body, his essence was a knight.

How can a knight join hands with someone who can handle special powers?

However, the memories of the days when he acted with ignorance remained intact.

Among them, there were memories of fighting with that man.

It wasn't a long workshop, but even with this power, he couldn't reach that man at all.

Not only that, but it was always relaxing.

He treated him as if he was playing with a child, far from being strong enough.

'The real power must be much greater than that.'

He understood that it was better to have his help than to fight alone.

But still, I felt rejected.

"You mean you can't go under the Warlock?"

"It's like that. I know your power better than anyone because I've experienced it myself... ."

"The power you have been through is but a dust. Don't say that you only know my strength that much.

Jamie opened her eyes terrifyingly and spoke as if warning.

Is it false?

Bianca looked at Jamie with a slightly suspicious look.

But right now, that wasn't important, so I ended up saying what I was going to say.

Anyway. I know you are very strong, but as a knight, I am reluctant to work with a warlock."

"Then you are going to face a country alone? Are you serious?"

"Like I said, as long as you put a sword into the heart of the king, everything will be fine after that."

"You're a really boring guy."

"I've heard that a lot for a long time. As I said before, I thank you. Then come on."

Bianca ended the conversation by herself and was about to leave.

Jamie looked at her back and opened her mouth.

I'm not the warlock you think I am, Bianca Adrey.

"What does that mean?"

Damn it. Why do I have to do this because I regret it?"

Jamie grumbled, ruffling his bangs in an absurd tone.

The case of Biankara was that special, and there was a desire to somehow bring it under his control.

Jamie reached out her left palm toward her with a slightly dissatisfied look on her face.

"Aren't you going to say you don't know this pattern?"

The patterns of the 12 denominations are so famous that even a child can understand them.

It made no sense to say that the person who was even appointed as a knight in a country did not know.

Again, seeing the pattern of the Pyro, Bianca muttered with a slightly startled face.

that's A Pyro-glyph?"

okay. This is the pattern of the Pyro goddess."

"Why do you Are you not a warlock? I've seen him use black magic, so why is he engraving that pattern on his palm?

Bianca asked Jamie if she was confused, with a look of disbelief.

Then, as he remembered something, he opened his eyes and said.

Come to think of it! When fighting with me, I must have divine power !"

I only remembered Jamie's strength, but I couldn't remember the specific situation, but when I saw the pattern, it flashed in my mind and a memory came to mind.

Jamie lowered her hand and answered.

"This is a sign of a saint."

"A saint? Are you saying you are a Pyro saint?"

"You showed me."

When she raised her left hand again to awaken the Pyro's divinity, she gave a displeased look and stepped back.

As an undead woman, divinity was like poison.

Jamie said with divinity.

"Well, that's it."

"It's hard to believe. Can a warlock become a saint? It wouldn't be possible. Warlocks are the enemies of mankind that everyone is the target of subjugation. He wouldn't have been allowed to even survive, let alone a saint.

"Because my powers are different from those bastards. And the power you have was originally mine too."

Saying that, she snapped her fingers and the black mana inside Bianca's body reacted momentarily.

Bianca clasped her chest at the sudden resonance and glared at Jamie.

Jamie only shrugged.

"The reason why you were able to become such a strong Death Knight is that, in the end, my influence was quite large."

" what the hell are you I thought he was no ordinary man, but his very existence was beyond my understanding."

"Do not try to understand with a mortal head."

Jamie's eyes turned purple.

"I will no longer speak rudely. Choose Will you come under me or will you leave this way? I promise, if you come to me, your wishes will surely come true. But if you leave, that's all. I will never seize you again."

Bianca swallowed dry at the sudden change in Jamie's tone.

Intuitively, she also knew that this was her last chance. But I was still worried.

I understand that you are not an ordinary (?) warlock.

Through the words he uttered, he also guessed that he was a giant beyond imagination.

But wouldn't it be premature to hold the hand of an unknown person?

In a short period of time, Bianca had a lot of trouble.

Then I had a thought. I thought that worrying like this was pointless.

I ."

Jamie looked at Bianca with her mouth shut.

The wind blew and her blonde hair fluttered beautifully.

She said.

"I will make a contract with you."

Jamie said with a smile.

"The contract has been made."

A purple light enveloped the two of them.

And when the light faded, there was a knight kneeling in front of Jamie.

"Knight Bianca Adrey. I have you as my lord, and I will swear allegiance."

"Just ask me one thing. Why did you choose to come under me?"

"Because there was no reason to worry."

Bianca lifted her head and looked at Jamie.

As she had made up her mind, there seemed to be a stream of brilliance in her eyes.

Even if it's undead.

It was proof that she was special.

"What do you mean?"

"That means you don't have to choose any means or methods to get revenge."

All the members of the Royal Palace Knights who lived together and treated him like family, all died.

She was obliged to take revenge on the enemies who killed her companions.

The fastest way to get revenge is right in front of you, but it didn't make sense to kick them just to protect the knight's honor.

is it.

Jamie nodded with an incredulous look on her face.

Then, raising the corners of his mouth, he pulled the skirt from his waist and lifted it over his head.

Bianca bowed her head again.

Slowly lowering the sword over her head, he declared as he held the sword to both shoulders once.

"Bianca Adrey. I appoint you as my knight."

"I will do my best, my lord."

"Welcome, Bianca."

In the forest where no one is.

With only the gaze of the stars, the ancient warlock obtained the Death Knight.

* * *

Jamie summoned the Gate of Reverse Heaven.

"This is the space where my power was realized. It has become part of my family, so you can stay here."

" It's a very old door."

What. It will be cozy though."

"Are you sure?"

"Don't worry, go in. There are some intelligent guys inside, and I'll introduce them properly later. I think it would be a little difficult to make friends right away."

"Why?"

"You can see it for yourself. I have some work left to finish, see you later."

As the door opened, Bianca looked at the black interior for a moment, then went straight into it.

Even though it looks a little small on the outside, she must have instinctively sensed that this was a safe place.

What worries me a little is those guys.

"Liza will intervene well."

I don't know if I'll be able to subdue the two rampaging guys on my own, but I won't die anyway, so I'll take care of myself.

Jamie headed back to Pivion's house.

He must have calmed down to some extent, so I had something to talk about about his future treatment.

He moved in front of Pivion's house at once.

It was very dark because there was no candle, but the sound of family members sitting around and talking could be heard outside.

"Mom will try hard again. With Finn and Pion, I will eat whatever I want, and try my best so that I can wear what I want to wear."

"I hate that only my mother suffers. I will work hard to help."

me too! me too!

"There are only my children."

Jamie listened to them for a moment.

It felt like it warmed my heart.

"Are you all going to sleep by now?"

Father Earl Wellton, mother Sears, and sister Sarah.

They are far from here, but Jamie knew they were always there.

Because I think and think every day.

Family is like that.

Even though they are far apart, they think of each other, people who are closer than anyone else connected by blood.

The same goes for Phoebe's family.

They once lived a luxurious life, but even if they lose everything overnight, they are living this difficult life depending on each other because they are a family.

Of course, not all families are like this, but Jamie felt there should be more people in the world who had this kind of warmth.

That's me.

Ah! I will leave now."

"Let's go together."

"I want to go out!"

I only said one word, and the whole family came out.

"Where have you been? Anyway, I was just trying to say thank you. there This is nothing, and I have nothing to offer."

Irina handed Jamie wrapped in a precious cloth.

Even if you look at it, it seems that it was something from the days when she was enjoying a noble life. It would be of little value if it was not sold and kept until now when life became so barren.

This ."

"It's an ornament I used. He gave me a present when I first met him, but even if life gets difficult, I can't sell this alone."

"Are you telling me to get something like that now?"

"Fufu. It would be a pity in the end to keep having this. I think I will be able to live again only if I shake off the lingering regrets. So please take it."

Jamie smiled as she looked at the furoshiki with ornaments. Then he shook his head and pushed the furoshiki toward her.

"The priest has no desire for such things. And because I just did what I had to do, it's enough to say thank you."

However ."

"Give it to your children later when they are all grown up. So, by the way, I'm here to make a suggestion."

"Any suggestion?"

As Irina tilted her head, Jamie said, thinking of someone who would best understand their situation and even deal with them.

"Go to Harmonia."

"Are you talking about the Kingdom of Harmonia?"

Yeah. You should take this with you."

Jamie gave her a pre-written introduction.

"Go to Khim, the capital of Harmonia, show this to Captain Hawks, and he will show you where to stay."

on ? Why did the chief of the guard there tell us where we were going ?"

"Because it's a place I have a relationship with. It will do you well. It's a busy time, so I'm sure I'll get a job soon. It will not be difficult to prepare for a new life."

"Hey, why are you doing this to us?"

"There is no big reason. just ."

Jamie said as he looked at the Milky Way across the sky before he knew it.

"Let's just say I want to."

" May I know your name?"

Well. second let's say Then come on."

Wait!

Irina tried to hold on to Jamie, but it vanished right in front of her eyes.

And there was a small stone in the place where he was standing. It was a luminous stone that could light a fire.
