2 – Irene Uris(2)

“Hey, Evan!”

“Ah.”

I was dazed for a while at the emotionless gaze that was holding a pen in front of me and looking at me with a languid gaze.

I blinked at the screams pouring down on me, and as if I didn’t like the article, I sent a ferocious look at me.

“…Sorry.”

Her still insensitive gaze. As she bowed her head, her knight cleared his throat and opened his mouth.

“He is the person you should serve from now on. It’s embarrassing for me to show you this from the beginning!”

“All right. You don’t look that old anyway, but it could be because you’re surprised.”

Her grace flowed naturally in her gestures, saying that it was okay. It was clear that her age was probably not that different from mine.

Her face still looks young. Even considering her age, no one would find her strange.

However, admiration arose in the knight’s eyes at her elegant gestures, as if she was born with such behavior.

Greetings to Julis’s next shield. As the words came out of her knight’s mouth, her face hardened.

It was not much different from before, but it was still an expression that could be said to be insensitive.

I could notice the cracks that had passed across her face for an instant.

The reason she hates that title, probably has something to do with her father.

I thought my taste was bitter.

At most, the insensitive expression of a person who is no different from a young girl who is the same age as my current body, who is still a long way from being an adult.

It wasn’t a good scene to watch as I was sincerely saddened by her situation.

The strict discipline that has been going on since childhood, because of that, he may whine like any other child.

She asked me to buy something. She must have looked like that because she had never used it before.

She is an actress who always plays perfection, her face has returned to complete expressionlessness.

By the time those deep blue eyes returned to light, her red lips softened.

“So, what’s your name?”

As soon as the voice that cut through the silence reached me, I flinched and lifted my bowed head.

Name? I almost couldn’t answer for a moment, but I remembered the words written on the side of the bed earlier and calmly opened my mouth.

“This is Evan Fried.”

“I see, Evan. Was it the son of Count Fried?”

Was it the son of a count? Hey, isn’t it the status of someone who will serve the eldest daughter of the duchy?

It would be much better to have a verified identity than gossip.

The words ‘to serve you in the future’, muttered by the driver earlier, floated around in my head, but I thought it would be better to think about it later, so I straightened my stance.

On the one hand, I was interested in the place called Count Fried, which was no different from my place of origin.

Considering that it is a family that has never been mentioned in [My Love of the Rose Thorn], It is probably an earl, but its power is limited.

Still, since he was a knight candidate for a ducal family, he seemed to have good skills.

After thinking for a while, I sharpened my pupils, which had been blurred for a while, and soon our eyes met with blue eyes again.

“…I’ve heard of the great name. He is a genius that will come only once in a century.”

“Genius.”

Seriously, it was the first time I heard it, so when I shook her hand, Irene’s mouth moved slightly as she stared at me.

She was taken aback by the sight of her level mouth wagging its tail above her, but then calmly opened her mouth.

Genius, it was a word he had heard before, so he knew exactly what it meant.

A person with talent, someone who can accomplish feats that will leave a mark on the world before he dies, even if he just replicates the efforts of others.

Perhaps this body had that kind of talent.

As she lowered her head, barely holding back the corner of her mouth trying to twist, Irene opened her mouth again.

It was very surprising that faint emotions were mixed in the uneven voice.

“You are humble. I like that he is not arrogant even though he has reached the stage at that age.”

“Thank God. Do you like it? What are you doing, don’t hang your head.”

Huh, holding back the laughter that was about to burst out, I shut her mouth.

Gyungjira, although it was a romance fantasy worldview, there was no exact standard for force, but it was possible to gauge the level of it by the characters who appeared in the work.

For example, the emperor reached the highest level in the sword, that is, the master. In magic, it was said that the mage tower had reached the 9th circle, the ultimate state.

However, when people talk about it in the world, being able to say that you have reached a certain level is a word that can only be attached when you reach a certain level or higher.

So, my sword-wielding body is probably just below that of a master.

It must be that you have put your body into the realm of being an expert. I deliberately lowered my head, lest my embarrassed face be seen.

Only then did I realize why Irene had called me.

The fact that the knight introduced the son of a ducal family to such a person, who is called a genius in swordsmanship, and introduced him as the person he will serve in the future…

“The reason I called you today is because I was thinking of entrusting you with my escort.”

I bowed my head as I watched her immediately get to the point, as if she didn’t need Saddam.

Howira, I tried to remember Irene Uris’ escort knight. My eyes narrowed for a moment at the thought of a memory I couldn’t recall.

In the first place, she was a villain, and her past only appeared briefly.

When she explained that she was a villainess and what kind of powers she possessed, she only had a few paragraphs.

Irene Uris’ nanny, maid, knight, and family. All of that I didn’t know.

She wasn’t the main character, so it wasn’t covered.

I thought the breath coming into my lungs was cold. Even though it was hot enough for the sun to shine.

When she finally let out her breath due to the incomprehensible stuffiness that settled in her heart, she went on with her words again.

“Of course, I am not talking about taking on an escort right away. Sir Chris will be there to help. After gaining experience like that, after a few months, you will officially become an escort.”

“However, I will not be on the front lines unless it is a very urgent situation. You will have to solve everything yourself, and your judgment will soon take the life of the Soga Lord.”

Be careful.

She frowned for a moment at the words that seemed to weigh on her lungs, then nodded her head.

It was heavy. I couldn’t have been happy with the responsibility that came so suddenly. However, I felt that I wanted to do it anyway.

You didn’t know anything about Irene Uris.

It was as if a strange curiosity that I wanted to know whispered to me.

The brief tears I shed while sympathizing with her situation, if only those tears had brought me to this point.

“I will not spare my life.”

Before returning to the original world, wouldn’t it be okay for a short while?

Her bowed head was heavy, and her words when she opened her mouth to me felt infinitely light.

“Please take good care of me.”

Are you serious? I lowered my head, and my face contorted in an instant.

After I was told to leave the room, a lady-in-waiting came from far away and held out a long bundle of cloth to me.

As she accepted the cloth bundle with her two hands in her serious mood, the maid opened her mouth with a calm voice.

“It is a sword. Since it is an escort knight, the duke personally bestows it, so please give that thanks to Iron Blood.”

“Okay.”

Iron blood is the spirit of the Duke of Julis. It was a shield that had to be protected from all enemies of the empire, so it was a word that originated from the ancestors’ will that even its blood should be like iron.

-My Sangvis rejects you.

When I first saw her heroine, I remembered what Irene said to her.

It was the beginning of all tragedies, and the beginning of an opportunity for the main character to change his status.

If she hadn’t said that, she might not have miserably lost her neck on the scaffold.

After staring blankly at the empty space for a while, the door opened with a rattling sound.

“Let’s go, Evan.”

“…Yes.”

My eyes widened for a moment, but soon the answer came out of my mouth as I returned to normal.

Unlike the dresses others wear, it was a plain navy blue dress with few decorations.

It seemed as if Irene had innumerable jewels carved into it, shining brightly.

I heard that hangers are important, so I guess that was true.

Irene, who had been looking at me, opened her mouth as I hung the sword that came out of her cloth bundle around her waist.

“It suits you well.”

“Thank you.”

Irene, who was staring at me like that, immediately moved her steps and continued her words.

“Today is a simple outing. Unless you have really bad luck, nothing special will happen. So, I hope there are no mistakes.”

“Yes.”

As if she liked her concise answer, she said nothing more and walked in front of her.

Chuck-

The captain of the guard, who confirmed her going out, lowered her head in a moderation manner, and Irene nodded her head once as if she was used to it.

And then the next step.

As if the duke’s residence wasn’t just a façade, when I left the mansion, I saw a street crowded with countless people.

I almost looked away because it was strange to see the medieval streets, but I sighed lightly when I realized that I was an escort.

“…Ha ha.”

What the hell should I do next?

I realized the moment I held the sword earlier, but I thought I could handle it well.

The slight resonance you feel as you grip the hilt of the sword, the feeling that reacts to every single cell in your body, that thrilling sensation.

But apart from that, I was just vague about my future situation.

Should I continue to act as an escort and find a way to return?

However, since the possibility of finding even that was so vast, I couldn’t decide anything hastily.

For now, we should focus on escorting.

I thought as I touched the sword at my waist.

Until now, I didn’t know a single clue that would help me return to the original world, and since I was suddenly brought into a body like this, shouldn’t I spend time adapting for the time being?

“……”

Then, I suddenly realized that Irene had stopped.

Just like before, the expressionless face was looking at one place.

When she turned her eyes to follow that line of sight, what she saw there were countless figures of young ladies.

“Oh, this is definitely-“

“This is a brooch made by Reve, a designer from the capital. It’s really classy just looking at it.”

“This is a sapphire necklace made by Pania. Unbelievable!”

Women who gather in the store and chatter loudly, shining their eyes at the accessories on display.

She just stared at Irene and the young girls who looked exactly the same age as her.

As if he were in a completely different space from those young ladies.

She was alone in the silence of the crowded and noisy street.

“…Let’s go.”

As if she wasn’t particularly impressed, she casually moved her steps, and I also followed her.

But the look in her eyes as she was looking at the young ladies earlier got caught in my eyes, and somehow I felt like I was dragging my steps.

What was reflected for a moment in the eyes that were no longer wavering was clearly longing.
