Chapter 273

Episode 273 After a few more days of the first outing with Lacia,

the sons of nobles, who seemed likely to stay forever, withdrew from the viscountcy.

All that was left were the royal troops and Princess Celestia, the Marquis of Marchen.

After the nobles left, they investigated for three more days, but it was far from easy to find evidence as Ray decided to keep his mouth shut.

In the end, the royal troops were thinking of withdrawing as they had not found any clues so far.

The two knights who were escorting the princess are awaiting punishment for failing to properly escort the princess.

It was impossible to make a knight on probation work, so Celestia’s escort knights had to choose three from among the royal knights.

All three are knights whose names have spread widely.

One was an advanced Auror user, and the other two were at an intermediate level.

At this point, the king also ordered the Marquis of Merchen to withdraw, perhaps feeling relieved.

Of course, the Marquis of Merchen didn’t like it, but that doesn’t mean you can ignore the king’s order.

It has been two weeks since the incident at Viscount Gade’s house.

All troops from the capital withdrew.

* * *

Ray never felt the need to remain at Viscount Gade any longer.

I ate enough to eat and slept enough to sleep.

After a good rest, it was time to go back to work.

“Now that the checkpoints are gone, the village must be functioning properly.”

There must have been quite a lot of requests to the guild.

Ray, who had packed food and stuff in his backpack, left the private room.

He had greeted Viscount Gade in advance so that he could leave the mansion at any time.

Illisia felt very sorry and tried to catch it, but was terribly rejected by Ray, who was harder than adamantine.

After escaping from Daejeon, Ray stopped in front of a private room that looked gorgeous even at a glance.

A knight stood guard in front of the door.

The knight, who looked around with sharp eyes, found Ray and started talking to him.

“What is going on?”

“I want to see the princess for a moment.”

“...”

The article glanced at Ray once more.

He wears a suspicious-looking mask over his face and wears a robe of white rags crushed by grass.

From the outside, he looked more grotesque than a well-dressed bandit.

Rumors of the saint did not spread as widely as expected.

Moreover, as a royal knight, he had no chance to hear rumors because he had never left the royal castle.

Who could think of a beggar-looking human being as a saint?

The knight shook his head.

‘You’re crazy. I can never let them in.’

“Go back. The princess is not someone you can just meet without thinking.”

Ray’s complexion brightened at the knight’s words.

“Can I really go back? You won’t regret it, will you?”

“This guy is still! Get away!”

As I spoke with the momentum to pull out my sword, Ray said “Oh, it’s hot” and withdrew.

As the knight watching him leave sprang up, the door to the private room opened and Celestia and a maid came out.

Celestia, who was holding a book, asked the knight if he had been reading.

“What happened?”

“It’s nothing, Princess. I sent Tyler back because there was a rough one.”

be ruthless

Is there anyone in this mansion who can be called a rogue?

As she mentally imagines her appearance, her face somehow overlaps with someone she knew.

“...How was your dress?”

The knight answered her question as if there was nothing more to say.

“It was very poor. I don’t know where he rolled on the grass, but he was wearing a faded white robe and even had a mysterious mask on his face. I could tell at a glance that it wasn’t normal.”

Celestia’s complexion turned blue as she listened to the knight’s words.

In desperation, she leaned forward and asked again.

“Where are you now? I bet he didn’t leave!”

To be precise, they kicked it out.

The knight was taken aback when the normally quiet princess came out like this.

“The bar just left.”

Killing two birds with one stone seems to be saying something like this.

Ale waved his hand slowly with unconcerned eyes.

“Go away. Well, it’s formal, but take care of yourself. Watch out for bandits.”

Rey, who had a history of robbing bandits in the past when he was in the Holy Land, answered.

“I will be careful.”

Unlike Ale, Sain seemed a bit worried.

“Ray, you help me well by my side.”

Ale replies before Ray can say anything.

“You too. You have to worry about who to worry about. With my skills, would I be beaten to death by a bandit?”

Absolutely nothing to worry about in reality.

However, worrying about the fact that their child is going outside for the first time was the heart of a parent, so I couldn’t help it.

When it seemed that the departure would be delayed, Ray packed his things and hurriedly left the house.

“Do not worry. I’ll be back soon.”

“I’m coming.”

* * *

The two of them left the house vigorously.

Lacia walked around with a single smile.

It’s the first outing in my life.

Excited like a child playing late at night for the first time when she should be sleeping, she asked Ray.

“Brother, are you going to the village with the bill you said last time?”

“that’s right. It’s the only adventurer’s guild there.”

“Hmm... What should I do in the guild?”

“Usually I take requests. Well, it won’t be difficult, but a request isn’t about eating and playing, so don’t expect too much.”

“Ho-ho-ho. I’m satisfied with my older brother.”

Ray laughed as he clung to his arm with a voice full of aegyo.

How long did you walk like that?

The two left the forest.

Then the village began to appear in front of me.

Lacia’s eyes lit up at the sight she saw for the first time.

“Wow....”

A beautiful square with a fountain view and a decent market noise.

The clock tower in the center of the village rang just in time to announce the time.

Deeng— Deeng—

Lacia’s expression brightened up at that majestic sound she’d heard before.

“It is a nice town. I think I know why my brother lives outside.”

“I’m glad you liked it. Our destination is the large building to the right of the clock tower. We still have some time left, so let’s look at other places.”

Ray is not blind enough to go straight to his destination.

The original purpose was to request a healer, but there was no problem at all in leaking into the side road for the sake of the younger sister.

Lacia didn’t come along to look around.

He just followed his older brother because he was curious about where he was going and what he was doing.

She thought as she glanced around with dry eyes.

‘It’s a pretty nice town. At this level, I’d be fine with my older brother. pass.’

After looking around, the two arrived at the adventurer’s guild in the evening.

When I entered the building for the original purpose, the eyes looking at Ray from the surroundings were not good.

As if he had already gotten used to it, he didn’t take it too seriously, but it wasn’t Lacia.

‘I don’t even know the subject.’

She shot a sharp wave of energy at each seated person.

As sharp needle-like mana flies away one by one, those who were sitting still startled and fell from their chairs.

“Ku-k-k-k-k.”

Laughing out loud, Ray patted her on the head.

“It’s not the mana rod that made me do that.”

“But the other side first quarreled with my brother. They’re like bugs crawling on the ground. That’s a lot of patience.”

On the contrary, he looks at me with eyes asking for praise saying that he endured a lot.

Ray looked at him and shook his head.

My sister’s love for her family is evolving day by day.

It was right to say that this was a disease at all.

“It’s serious. I can’t fix this either.”

He gave up treatment.
