CH 11

A flower garden with pink roses in full bloom.

In front of me, there are plenty of appetizing cakes and fragrant black tea.

In the meantime, tense eyes turned to Easton, and free hands to Noah’s soft cheeks.

So I was having a small tea time in the flower garden.

[I met you for the first time.]

In that situation, Easton pretended to see me for the first time.

Why the hell, why?

Maybe Easton thinks I’ve really lost my memory of that day.

If so, I can understand his attitude to some extent.

“…….”

I stared at the eastern in front of me without saying a word.

Exactly, I was looking at his brow. So that you don’t make eye contact.

Somehow, every time I was conscious of him, my heart seemed to drop, and my beat quickened rapidly.

I keep hearing what he said.

Sounds like it has something to do with this situation.

I squeezed my eyes shut and recalled the memories of that day.

He said, ‘You’ll forget all about it anyway.’

He’s okay now, but is this related to the fact that he’s a demon of desire?

Keep feeling, I’ll forget everything anyway… La.

Does that mean that I feel the same way every time I see Easton, and then forget the memories of that time?

But I was doing exactly what I remembered.

Moreover, even in the original story, Lucas also remembered well that Easton was a half-race of the demon clan.

They even threatened him with it.

Oh, what the hell!

Something has gone wrong in my body, what?

Or is it that I have similarities with Lucas?

But I don’t resemble Lucas at all, either internally or outwardly!

“…….”

As my thoughts intensified, so did my touch on Noah’s cheek.

But Noah nonchalantly picked up the cake with his fork and shoved it into his mouth.

Easton, who had been watching from the front, raised his teacup as if to match the mood.

As a result, a suffocating awkwardness began to develop.

Maybe they won’t talk until I open my mouth?

I tried to sneak him up in the back-and-forth conversation, but I can’t do any of this.

We had a good conversation earlier, and then all of a sudden, I thought, why are you doing this?

Noah wouldn’t be such a silent personality either.

‘…… Yes, I’m the one who invited you to tea time.’

Eventually, defeated by impatience, I had to open my mouth.

Let’s see, Easton looked at me like he had never seen me before, right?

“I’m sorry I disturbed the class, is our Noah learning well?”

It was a bit of a parent-teacher question, but Easton smiled faintly.

Is that a sales smile?

Easton said, setting down his teacup.

“Surprisingly, he had no awkwardness when wielding his sword. He was very learned.”

“Oh my.”

Is our Noah so good?

After all, as the main character in the novel, the fraudulent nature seems to be stuck without going anywhere.

I smiled broadly and stroked Noah’s head. So Noah came to my touch, squealing like a cat.

Then Noah smiled broadly and said:

“I’ll show you!”

Yes?

“If you want, I’ll show you my swordsmanship!”

What…… Is that alright?

The people who had gathered at the flower garden for tea time at most were returning to the swordsmanship practice area before they knew it.

In order to float Easton, I laid down the plate, and suddenly I became their audience.

I picked up the parasol again and found the best spot to look at them.

I’m going to take a look, so let’s get down to business, whatever.

Think positively. When can I see my favorite practicing swordsmanship?

‘Rather boring!’

With a twinkle in my eye at the sudden sensation, I hurried to take a seat so I could see Noah’s whole picture.

Annie, who was observing, led me to the shade of a tree and held a cool ice pack in her hand.

Noah glanced at Easton, leaving me behind, and then he squeezed his wooden sword straight.

And Noah’s wooden sword quickly turned to Easton’s.

Tak.

The dull sound of wooden swords clinking, the crunching of sand, filled the air.

Noah swung his arm and used the step of his foot at the same time. Then, in time for one swing, he was able to attack again.

I put my hands together and pressed them to my cheeks with a small admiration at the sight.

“Ugh!”

Our Noah is the only kind in thousands!

I’m just getting to see that.

Ha, I feel like I’m getting more emotional as it’s late.

Alas…… I’m really excited about Noah’s future.

If you continue to improve your skills, you may even aim for the position of Marquis Eriz, the head of the Imperial Knights.

Not. He may overcome it and become more famous.

‘Noah is the best! Noah is the bravest in the world!’

But there was something that penetrated my thoughts.

“Well…….”

It was Annie’s questioning voice.

Annie tilted her head and began to make another whimpering sound.

I quickly looked away, and Annie whispered to me softly.

“I… Lady, is this your first-time watching swordsmanship?”

“Why?”

Could it be that Annie was as surprised by Noah’s swordsmanship skills as I was?

Well, it’s worth it! I was really surprised.

“Our Noah is so good!”

Unlike me, who answered with a bright smile, Annie flinched for a moment and then smiled awkwardly.

“Oh, of course. That said, . . .”

She looked at Noah ponderously and tilted her head again.

“Isn’t it more appropriate to say that you’re not good at it than he’s good at it?”

“What?”

What are you talking about. Noah, who has been holding the sword for less than a week, is good at it. Wait a minute, no, wait a minute.

That?

“……!”

I looked at Noah, who was swinging his sword again at Annie’s comment.

No-frills handiwork.

Untwisted steps.

Certainly, the first time he held the sword, it was quite different from the one who held it many times.

No matter how bad you are in swordsmanship, you won’t be ignorant of this difference.

For example, Annie and I didn’t recognize it.

Speaking of which, Easton too…….

[Surprisingly, he didn’t show any awkwardness when he wielded his sword.]

He spoke as if Noah knew the sword.

Even if it’s usually packaged as a sales ment, it’s like, ‘I’m talented,’ or ‘I’m talented!’ Why don’t you say that?

I silently looked at Noah with the same question as Annie.

It’s really weird. Noah would never have learned swordsmanship.

Does this include “because he’s the lead in a novel”?

It’s not a small possibility, but… Proficiency and talent are two very different words.

In case you don’t know, you should keep an eye on it.

That proficiency is probably out of the original novel, just in case…….

But it was at that moment that my thoughts deepened.

“Ouch!”

Noah’s feet began to twist as he meekly stepped on the ground.

And those steps were enough to knock Noah up.

An unspeakable voice came from Noah.

“Noah!”

I was so surprised that I stopped thinking and ran to him to check on him.

Sure enough, his legs were bleeding.

Oh dear. I guess his legs are broken.

“I’ll call the doctor.”

“Yes, please.”

Annie rushed to call the doctor before I could order it.

After all, I guess I was mistaken about Annie and Nana.

What kind of swordsmanship is such a young kid doing?

“Noah, are you okay?”

Noah cried at the anxious question.

“It’s a mistake. It was a mistake, sister.”

“Yes, yes.”

In spite of the careful stroke on his head, Noah was clinging to me and whining in disbelief.

But that was the moment.

“…….”

A white handkerchief pressed against Noah’s leg.

“That’s all for today’s lesson.”

The owner of the touch was Easton.

Easton said, not stopping his hand to press Noah’s leg.

“I’m injured in a situation where I’m moving, so I’m going to need someone to move me.”

“Then I’ll pick it up.”

“No, I don’t. I’ll pick it up.”

In spite of my answers, he still took Noah in his arms and said to me:

“Can you guide me?”

“Oh . . .”

I hesitated, alternating between Noah and Easton, and then stepped forward to lead the way.

But there was someone who prevented it.

“Sister.”

It was Noah.

Noah said, reaching out and grabbing the hem of my dress.

“I’ll show you around, go back to your room first.”

“How do I go back first?”

My brother was injured, knowing that how could I go back!

Oh no, of course, he has a wound on my leg, which is mild, but…….

I exhaled heavily, full of determination that I had no intention of backing down. Then Noah let out a small sigh.

Soon, though, Noah’s eyes widened and he spoke.

“Sister! I’ve left a tie in that garden; can you get me that?”

Tie? Of course, I’ll all the maids now…….

“Oh.”

There’s no one.

I looked around, only to sigh at the empty practice field.

Correct. Except for Annie, the rest of the crew was crazy and I told her to leave.

“…… yes.”

I was hesitant to leave because of the undesirable circumstances, but I raised the white flag in response to Noah’s continued requests.

What’s the big deal of me going there to bring it?

After Rosent left, Easton looked at Noah and sighed.

It was as if he had been waiting, and he had let out a choked breath.

At that, Noah was staring at Easton sullenly.

“You look anxious about stealing something.”

With fertilization, of course.

Easton frowned slightly at Noah’s sudden change in mood and then said quickly:

“What do you want to say?”

The fact that I’m left alone in this way means that I’m going to tell a story that no one else should hear.

Easton decided to say something about it.

“Duke was casting a spell on himself.”

“…….”

“Then his body was disturbed and he fell.”

Easton’s voice hardened.

“Isn’t it?”

And at the sound of that voice, Noah …….

“Didn’t Rossotervan did it first?”

He responded with a broad smile.

T/N: Guys, bad news! I have a very bad fever. I’ve been vomiting since yesterday. Also, I don’t know what happened to my laptop. It’s not charging. I plugged in the cable, but my charge is not going up from 0%. What should I do? I went to the service center, and they told me to change the battery, when my Abbu called the upper management, they instantly changed it and told me my laptop has no issues.

They told me to buy a new charger but never identified the real issue. These money-grabber people. They have no conscience just like the stealers who steal my translations despite having lots of readers. Can anyone tell me the solution to my problem? I can’t translate anything if my laptop is not fixed.
