Duke, Please Repent! chapter 72

17. The beginning of the journey with the Duke (5)

As we approached the street where the night market was held, it was crowded with people.

Various convenience stores are lined up along the roadside. From food and souvenirs to other daily necessities. there is nothing

Now that I'm out here, let's eat and start!

"Are you eating again?"

The time is 10 o'clock at night. It is the time when humans crave late-night food the most.

I've never heard of such a thing.

When the drip was blown with a serious expression, did you think it was a real story? Serpence showed serious concern.

Either way, I took him to the nearest yakitori shop. I bought one spicy and one sweet.

I brought snacks on the train and ate them... Then I might gain weight.

"Where did I alone eat? The three of us ate equally?"

If you just spread it out and eat it, you can serpen

I was afraid that Suga would not be able to eat it, so I cut it into three exactly and placed it in front of each of them.

"Besides, thanks to whom did I move the most on the train?"

I'm glad it became a sport.

The way he talks and smiles mischievously is very ironic. He was stopped from trying to transfer the spicy seasoning while pretending to toast with skewers for revenge.

Instead, I bought a bottle of soda and toasted it.

"By the way, Lydia-sama earlier. Did you do that on purpose?"

Did you get a lot of tea?

A little? As usual, it's best to listen to both sides first, isn't she? Is she very uncomfortable?

Serpens, who had hesitated a little, nodded slightly.

"Do you have any dislikes too?"

There was a slight hint of guilt on his face when he asked that question.

Who would treat everyone in the world only with love and affection? There's a lot to be sorry about.

Even the wind that blows on the leaves

I am inclined to do it with Law.

"Of course there is. No, you already know one, right?"

" Well?

Hansmal. You clearly saw the fussing. What kind of question do you call such a question?

"Ah that's right. Even though I know it, I can't quite imagine how reluctant you are and hate someone."

If that's possible, where would anyone be?

Don't say anything rude, and hit the bottle once again, meaning to drink or drink. A clear and 'clear' sound is crying

to spread

'It doesn't taste good, but the bottle is pretty, isn't it?'

When I said that the amount was too expensive for a subject, it was like putting a drink in the bottle to prove that it does not leak while selling.

It should be kept as a souvenir.

One more thing, I have a question for you.

Lots of questions today.

Usually, there are a lot of things I don't know, so I asked him about this and that, and he told me.

Ask as much as you like. I can't answer.

I'll answer everything except that.

"Why did you do that on the train a few days ago?"

If anything that happened on the train, Serpence would ask you about it. was it at that time?

Occasionally I would look at him with pitying eyes. Seeing the questions asked like this, it seems that there is really no point to point out this time alone.

"Is that also related to information that cannot be said right away?"

No. I'm just being forced to fight something I don't want.

Looks like I do... Ha, that's right.

He was about to ask a question with a bewildered expression, but he stopped and blew himself up.

You spit it out yourself, and you didn't even know it was me. It's really stupid.

Will you please stop cursing my boss?

You can't take it off.

Originally, subordinates are laws that exist in order to discredit the boss.

He's a guy who will dig down endlessly once he starts to get depressed, so 'Serpence Pre-Flight Syndrome' will develop.

I'll have to pull it out first and start over.

"Coming back to the point. Defining oneself is difficult for anyone. If you force it, you can pull it out, but it will be full of distorted or missing parts. It's like asking for advice.

It is not for nothing that the clichés of experiencing one's unconscious or traumatic ordeal and awakening through it in various novels are rampant.

Humanus also in [Master of the Holy Sword]

It happened to me, so I said it all.

"You sometimes you wonder why you usually act like that.

It's said that if someone who doesn't normally show an unexpected side from time to time, gets a much more positive evaluation, isn't it? Everything is planned!

Lies.

That's right. I'm just living impulsively from time to time. I got the answer right, so I got something... .

Ah, that's right! I promised to do it, but I forgot!

"I have no memory of receiving such a promise!"

He looks at me with contemptuous eyes. Also, it seems that the U-Ju-Ju was not delivered.

But what I'm going to do is, can I buy you a box of candy and give it to you?

Finally. Is there anything else I've been worried about since before, can I ask?

You've already asked a lot of questions. Do whatever you want.

" why are you holding my hair?"

I ask too early. of another question

Have you been pushed out of your priorities?

Ever since he asked me who I didn't like with a guilty expression, I've been holding on to it.

Escape collar...? The grip is very good. Where do you sell these?

"Are you crazy at last?"

No, who the hell taught my child such radical language?!

It seems that he has developed a bad language habit by constantly wandering around in the dark.

Serpent asked anything he wanted to ask

Well, he pulled his hair out of my hand.

"Would you like to see more?"

Are you just going to buy some snacks that you can eat as a snack? Since you have all three mouths to eat, it's going to go down quickly.

I said this, but I couldn't do it my way.

In the end, I put only this in my mouth, watched and played hard. It was only when the stores were closed one by one, that I returned to the inn with regrets behind.

* * *

I fell asleep late in the morning, but the departure time was not delayed. I woke up early in the morning, ate breakfast in the middle of the night, and got on a street carriage.

"Did you have fun yesterday?"

Of course! There's a lot of excitement here and there, so I'm excited too.... Eating delicious food, watching. It was so much fun!

You did. I guess I meant to go with you.

We'll have another chance later.

...Perhaps?

I'm sorry for Eugene, who shows a slight regret, but I can't give you a definitive answer.

I believe that one day she will be able to work hard.

Even after 10 years have passed, Humanus is still the same, but Euges knows the escort master's side... . Wouldn't that be a bit more advantageous?

If you go out of town, you'll be riding horses instead of horses. Are you two okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

"Do you think it will be okay to some extent?"

His gaze flew and focused on whether there were any such answers.

'But I don't know if it's really okay, what do I say!'

In fact, Serpense's question is nothing more than a courtesy. This is my next schedule, so I'm telling you to remember it.

Eugene, the number of years we have lived is several times longer than ours, and since he was an elf, a friend of plants and animals, there is no need to ask.

Shion, the second son of the noble family, is also

He must have judged that he had learned horseback riding as an enemy.

yes i learned Not me, but Zion.'

There is no way an ordinary modern person can ride a horse. It was too vague to say that I couldn't ride.

The question of getting suspicious doesn't make any sense anymore, so put it aside.

'There's nothing wrong with talking, wouldn't it be okay to ride a horse?'

Of course, this was not what he meant

Should I call it a memory left in my body?

I wondered if the unconscious realm would react to it, and I put my hopes on Shion's body.

How much do you mean...?

Isn't it possible to walk enough?

You don't have a problem with your motor nerves, so why..., ah. You shouldn't have sent anything else, but a horse...

There are no horses in the Rivelon, so do you know that I didn't learn to ride a horse properly? Although I have always said that I am a family member of a very small family, my name is the Countess of the Empire.

It doesn't make sense to say nothing... . Words

Let's stop joking around now.

It's not like that! It's just that I'm not interested in horseback riding.

"Ummm if you had told me beforehand, I would have taught you."

I also thought that I would never be able to ride a horse myself, so I just left it alone.

'If you can't ride a horse, you can ride a wagon, and if you can't ride a wagon, you can ride a serpent, right?'

Just like the day I went to the dark side, there was a way to get to him if I could, so I completely stopped thinking about learning.

But after I get back to this, I'll have to learn it properly from Serpens.

I learned the truth of life that it is better to learn in advance and have nothing to write than to not be able to do anything when it comes to life.

I can't run a horse in the city anyway, so I'm riding a wagon. When I get out and ride a horse, I plan to mobilize my divine power.

For some reason, I thought that the estimated consumption time indicated by Serpence was too small, based on the distance on the map.

It was simply that the accumulation was wrong, or I did not understand the speed of the horse properly.

I thought it was my fault

But you will actually experience the madness of running with buffs on your horse.

'I'm in disguise, but now Serpens was the duke's version, wasn't it?'

Naturally, he had to expect that he would overuse his divine power.

"Your riding skills must have been so clumsy .

Sa, please save me!

It wasn't enough to say it was serious, but Serpence was seriously thinking about it.

was on the way.

But when he asked me to spare my life, he reflexively burst out a low-pitched laugh and opened his mouth.

I can't let you die, can I?

The answer has changed.

'Why am I killing my aide?' was the sequence. I could even feel the former Yul.

'Is this the reward of raising a child!'

I swam to my heart's content in the unexpectedly unfolding sea of emotion.

'Everyone, look! This is my child!'

An ugly (twenty) four-year-old kid who spent a lot of time on a fictitious day and pushed him away with only shouting, 'No!' and 'Go away!'!

When he grew up like this, he declared filial piety, saying, 'I will live with you from now on.'

Then I'll just buy two horses. You and I will ride together.... Can I leave our luggage with Lydia-sama's horse?

Yes, leave it to me!

Euges replied willingly.

After all, the load was very heavy. In [Master of the Holy Sword], Humanus and the group used something like a subspace pocket like a general store... .

The problem is that this is a technology from several hundred years ago, but there was a setting that it was lost due to a problem inside the tower.

Nevertheless, Humanus was able to obtain the subspace pocket.

'It's a giyeon like a general store, well.'

I found it by chance at a secret base in Daedo, which suddenly disappeared hundreds of years ago.

I remember that it was full of all kinds of treasures other than the subspace pockets, and I sold them and used them as funds for activities.

Thanks to this, there was no shortage of money even in a situation where there was no support.

'Isn't that a no-no now?'

As long as Serpens does not interfere, there is no way to spare financial support for Humanus, the prince and the owner of the Holy Sword in the Empire.

I turned my gaze to Serpens sitting next to me, and he looked at me with an expression that asked if he had anything more to say.

'I have a debt to repay to this guy .'

It's not a psychological metaphor, it's a real debt.

It's a place full of traps, so I don't think I can go to sleep alone, so I'll have to ask them to go to prison later on the condition of sharing the stake.
