Chapter 17: The Princess of Ran (1)

Jamie saw Bena weeping, still holding her forehead.

Since you had a proper headbutt with the Behemoth, you will not be free from a lump on your forehead.

So, who attacked?

The cost of a surprise attack on the Master is so great.

All those who would come under him had to be careful.

You should be aware that if you don't care, you'll get a lump on your forehead.

Bena grumbled with tears in her eyes.

"It's too much. Whatever it is, to make a lady's forehead look like this."

"What is too much? He was aiming at my head with a hammer and swinging it."

"It's not right anyway!"

"I avoided it, and you did not. What about this skill gap?"

blood!

Bena sticks out her tongue and turns her head in a sullen look.

Jamie put honey chestnuts on the head of his unrepentant subordinate.

Ouch! Why again!"

"It's a punishment for your cocky attitude. Rather, Behemoth, are you okay?"

"This is not a big deal."

Behemoth, who returned to the small size, was muttering an apple next to him.

The attitude that I did not care about the owner I met after 5 years was very impressive.

It made me feel a little bad, so I gave him honey chestnut.

"Kaak! You said you wouldn't even touch a dog while eating!

"If the master comes, welcome him. And are you talking nonsense again? ????????"

" I did."

"It's not like I said it. This guy."

Jamie smirked as he bit his tongue at the unchanging appearance of Behemoth.

"I'm glad that both of you seem to be doing well. Nice to see you again."

"I missed you, Master!"

"I'm glad the owner seems to be doing well Yo.

When Jamie expressed her pleasure in meeting for the first time in five years, Bena and Behemoth responded with bright voices.

In particular, Vena was different in many ways compared to five years ago.

His appearance has also matured a lot more than before, and above all, his personality has become brighter.

"Did you have a good time with your mom?"

Hehe. Yes. I enjoyed the lost 10 years so much that I don't regret it. Master too... but master. Isn't it too big?

I couldn't speak because I wasn't in a good mood earlier, but Bena was very surprised by Jamie's transformation.

Five years ago, he was only about the size of his chest, but now he has grown so big that he has to lift his head to see his face.

He thought he had grown up a lot in five years, but compared to Jamie, he was nothing.

"It is you. My hair is a little darker."

"It's starting to resemble my mother's color."

Benna said, pulling her pink hair for nothing.

If it was bright pink before, is it hot pink now?

color has darkened

It will become more and more red as time goes by.

'Certainly the queen's genes.'

When the current queen abdicates, Bena will become the queen leading the Valkyrie.

Five years ago, in that terrible place, the child I met is now the queen of the Valkyrie.

Jamie wondered if the meeting had been a draw of fate.

"But why are you here? I thought you were going to be with the Queen."

"Bena came here a year ago."

suddenly?

"It didn't come all of a sudden."

What are you talking about?

"I heard that the Master is dedicated to magic for five years. That's why I came this way. I thought that if I was in the frontier, the Master would come."

So, it means that Bena has crossed over to the frontier to wait for Jamie.

When Jamie was silent, Bena said with a pleasant smile.

"That's what Master said. Be strong and come back. I've been trying for 5 years. I didn't want to be a burden to the Master like before, so I worked hard. And I came here thinking I was ready."

vena.

"Look at this! It's a testament to my hard work."

Bena held out her hands in front of her.

Jamie's eyes widened slightly.

Her hands were a mess.

There were all kinds of calluses, old scars and recent scars everywhere.

There were many places where the nails were also damaged.

At least for several years, it was a hand that would have been seen only by those who had been practicing weapons.

"Because I worked really hard."

to stand by your side.

Bena had not forgotten the promise of that day.

Jamie clasped her hands tightly and smirked.

"You couldn't fight something like that, did you?"

"No, Master!"

Hahaha. It's a joke, a joke.

Jamie joking around, and Benna shouts out loud.

This part hasn't changed much from before.

As Bena puffed up her cheeks and gulped, Jamie placed her hand on her head.

Good job. You worked hard."

Bena, who was courageous at Jamie's bright smile, stared blankly at him.

He looked like he was genuinely happy.

At this moment, Bena realized that his Master was different from before.

He was a person who did not show any emotion except for anger.

He was the kind of person who was appropriate to say that he was dry.

But now she smiles brightly.

I could feel that it was not a formal smile, but a joy that came from my heart.

What made him change like this?

Bena was happy to see the changed Master, but at the same time, it was bittersweet.

There must have been a reason, but he wasn't there at that time.

What is it?

Jamie shook Bena, who was still, with a blank expression on her face.

on? Oh no. Master has changed a lot."

"Have I changed?"

Huh. A lot has changed. I never knew how to smile like that before."

"What am I funny about Ah.

Jamie, who put her hand on the corner of her mouth at Bena's words, realized only then, and quickly removed her expression.

"That, just. People can laugh."

"The owner is someone who laughs or doesn't laugh well."

"Hey what am I! What am I laughing at... !"

host. A lot has changed."

After Behemoth and Behemoth said that, Jamie stopped looking confused.

I thought that there was no need to hide my current form from these guys.

Although they met after 5 years, they were also family to Jamie.

"Nice to see you again, children."

Jamie laughed.

* * *

Ho, you're fighting with Mr. Hawks?!

Bena got up, kicking her chair with a shocked expression.

Behemoth asked, scratching his back paws if he doubted his ears.

host. Are you seriously fighting with the Hawks?"

"Why are these so surprising?"

Jamie didn't like the reaction of his subordinates.

It's as if you're fighting an opponent you shouldn't fight.

"How did you end up fighting Mr. Hawks?"

"Whoa. What I was worried about finally came to fruition. Because of the owner's personality, it didn't seem like it would fit with the Hawks.

" What do you mean I'm going to lose?

Bena and Behemoth were silent with similar expressions.

He really seemed to think so.

It wasn't funny.

What do you mean by looking at people and thinking that you are pushed by such a new head?

So I asked myself.

"Why do you think I will lose? I won't be angry, so let's all talk.

Well ."

"That ."

The two looked into each other's eyes and hesitated to speak.

Even though they'd seen each other for the first time in five years, they knew what Jamie was like.

Obviously, if you say something offensive, you will start feeding them honey chestnuts.

Jamie's honey night was painful, so it was difficult to make an honest confession.

"Okay. I won't hit you with honey."

"Really?"

When I said that I would not hit the honey chestnut, Behemoth walked out with bright eyes as if waiting.

I didn't like it, so I ate honey chestnuts.

"Ok! Oh, I told you not to hit me!!"

"It hasn't started yet."

"Too good!"

so. Tell me why you think I can't win. I'm not going to hit you this time.

Behemoth was still looking at him with disbelief, but he immediately opened his mouth, thinking that he should have something to say.

"If the owner had seen the Hawks himself, he would have known how strong he was. I'm not sure what the current owner is, but I'm sure it's going to be a tough fight. I think it would be wise to avoid this fight."

Behemoth's words were theorems.

The Hawks Jamie saw stood on the edge of the Grand Master.

If given a chance, he will break through that thin wall and enter the realm of the talisman called the Grand Master.

Such a strong person was also selected in the human realm.

Tarix Pan the swordsman, Darius, the undefeated champion of the Dark Arena, Kryon, the sword of Zenith .

I know there are several others out there, but there is no guarantee that even they will fight the Hawks and win.

'I don't know if it's about swordsmanship.'

Besides, Jamie can't use black magic, so it's like fighting with a handicap.

But I didn't think I'd lose.

OK. I will win."

master. Are you really okay?"

okay. And above all else, I have to fix the bad character of that bird head."

"I thought it was a rough idea, so I couldn't stop it."

Behemoth sighed.

Having been here for five years, I knew the Hawks better than anyone else in the group.

The Hawks are strong to the strong and weak to the weak, and at first glance, they look like a righteous joiner.

In fact, he was also quite just and kind.

The problem is, he's racist.

In particular, he greatly ignored humans, claiming that humans have clear limits and cannot rise above a certain level.

It wasn't because humans hated the race.

They think that there are only three major races that are superior to the Joining race, and they only think that humans are truly a weak race.

It was a very arrogant idea, but his ability was still proving it.

He was defeated several times without even passing a feather on his limit several times.

"For one thing, the Hawks are very seasoned hunters. I think his strength is enough to hold on to that era."

"You are pretty much appreciated."

"He's actually a strong guy. It's nothing compared to the owner in his prime."

"I'm talking natural. Anyway, thank you for saying it because I was worried. Don't worry about Bena. What you worry about will never happen."

I'll trust you, Master.

"That's it."

It was almost the end of the conversation between the three of them.

smart-

An unfamiliar voice was heard along with a knock.

"Jamie Welton. Isis invited you to dinner."

"I am leaving now."

When I opened the door, a Chinese man stood politely.

The Chinese were in control of the whole village, and it seemed that they were also running errands.

said the Chinese.

"They ask us to have dinner together in an hour."

Okay. Thank you.

"Then rest in peace."

When the Chinese had finished speaking, they left.

Jamie returned to his seat and checked the time.

"I couldn't talk properly before, so I called separately. How about the Isis you saw?"

Well. Isis is... ."

"It's hard to explain."

Bena and Behemoth looked troubled at words to describe Isis, but both gave up and shook their heads.

"It's easiest to get to know each other in person."

"Bena is right. Isis is hard to describe in a few words."

"So, every time you send me a letter, you say that you only ate an apple?"

"That, that ."

done. It's my fault for infiltrating you as a spy.

"The apples here are a masterpiece, master!"

Shut up. Before hitting the honey chestnut again. Anyway, I guess I'll have to see and judge for myself.

good it's min Perhaps.

Benna nodded as if she would.

Clearly, she wasn't an ordinary woman.

When I saw him briefly earlier, he looked like a boss suffering from a troublesome subordinate.

In reality, I was expecting a little bit of what kind of personality he was.

'If many people are loyal, at least he will be a good vessel.'

What is the leader who leads the huge organization called Frontier?

Jamie waited for dinner with a look of anticipation and half excitement.

And an hour passed.
