The Escort Knight Who Is Being Obsessed Over by the Villainess Wants To Run Away

22. Who are you, my master… Do you touch someone else’s owner?

“Feed me.”

The servants passing by looked at Judas and Elijah in astonishment.

Judas wished it was a dream.

It’s fine even if it’s a nightmare.

But it was real.

Elijah put a spoon in Judas’ hand and urged him.

She couldn’t help it either.

This morning, I came to the dinner table with more joy than usual.

Thinking of Judas yesterday.

But what?

The moment she ate the soup alone, her appetite plummeted.

It was objectively better than the porridge I ate yesterday.

Even so, I didn’t want to eat.

Elijah easily guessed the reason.

The presence or absence of Judas.

That was the only difference, so it was natural.

So I called Judas.

I wanted to, and I had the right to.

This situation arose for that reason.

Originally, it was something Elijah would not have done.

Complaining about food.

Even wanting to feed them.

It was rude enough for an immature child, but now Elijah couldn’t think of it as usual.

If you dare to point out who was responsible, it was all Judas’ fault.

Therefore, Elijah did not dispute her own complaint.

Judah couldn’t bear to refuse Elijah, who smiled brightly.

I don’t know what’s going on with her.

However, this was also a kind of self-employment.

The situation she caused.

In the end, Judas raised the spoon while receiving the stares of numerous servants.

For Elijah’s sake.

“… ….”

I couldn’t bear to say the crazy words like yesterday.

She just kept calm and was careful not to make mistakes as she fed Elijah this and that.

Elijah accepted and ate it with a smile.

She couldn’t keep her eyes off Judas while she ate.

Like a baby bird waiting for food.

Judas was a little embarrassed by that gaze, so she eagerly put food into her mouth without making eye contact with her.

“I’m full now….”

Today Elijah ate a little more than yesterday.

All that was left of her was Judah’s.

As if he was flustered, he ate the food.

The meals eaten at Elijah’s house were just as delicious and plentiful.

Around the end of the meal, Elijah hinted at the question.

“Have you thought about the reward we talked about last time?”

“Neep?”

Judas, who was eating dessert, raised her head.

Her face was a mess.

Cream on her nose.

Bread crumbs on his mouth.

It was kind of funny, so Elijah lightly let her laugh out.

Judas wiped her blush with her tissue.

“You said you would do anything.”

“Ah.”

I also remembered Judas.

When you saved Elijah from Lamech’s assassins, she promised her reward.

Judah put her on hold because she didn’t think she deserved it.

Besides, she thought she would leave someday.

“Didn’t you think?”

“I did, but….”

“Talk to me.”

He hesitated and spoke with difficulty.

“I want to learn to write…. I don’t know where or how to start.”

“Writing?”

“Yes. I wondered if learning would be helpful in any way.”

“Hmm.”

“I don’t even want to be a teacher. If you can get me at least one textbook worth studying on my own, I can do the rest myself.”

“Is that really enough?”

Elijah thought of something grander.

About one house?

I don’t know if you’ll be satisfied, but I can give it to you if you ask for it.

After getting her grounded, she was willing to give her something better.

By the way, Judas’ answer was very wrong. By her standards.

Even in her dreams, she could not understand that Judas was leaving this place to prepare for her future life.

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes. Enough.”

“Hmm. It’s writing….”

Elijah immediately came up with a good idea.

“Let me tell you.”

“… Yes?”

“I will tell you.”

Elijah said lightly.

Actually, she was confident.

She has already mastered grammar, vocabulary, and rhetoric to a level where she doesn’t need anyone else’s education.

Although she is new to teaching others.

“Oh, well, that….”

Judah had nothing to say no to. She

She said she wanted to learn, she said, and she accepted Elijah.

She just didn’t expect that she would let me know.

Her mind wandered.

Whatever she does, she goes deeper and deeper into the swamp.

It’s an insecticide. Always.

As he hesitated, Elijah asked in a low voice.

“… No?”

A cold shadow fell on her expressionless face.

Judas sensed her visceral threat and shook her head quickly.

“No. It is an honour. Thank you.”

“Isn’t it?”

Elijah quickly regained his smile.

Since the decision was made, there was nothing to hesitate about.

Elijah took her blanket and doll and led Judas by the hand to the study room.

Judas felt that her own life had become her ball of yarn.

Elijah is the cat playing with it.

‘I can’t live up to my name…. Before I can see the tragedy, I will die of my soul being robbed….’

The study room was too large to be used simply for studying.

Elijah sat down first and said.

“Sit down.”

Judah sat down facing her.

“Ria. Bring out some talking books.”

Elijah familiarly recites the names of several books.

Even a blank notebook to practice your notes.

While waiting, Yuda looked around the study room.

Elijah It is too wide to use alone.

Wouldn’t it be lonely if I studied alone here?

“Look here.”

“Yes.”

“Do you know how to write text?”

“Roughly… yo. This?”

“Try it.”

Elijah held out her blank paper and quill.

Judas wriggled her hand at the pen, trying to smear her ink on her nib.

“Wait. Why are you holding the pen like that?”

“… ….”

All he had ever caught in his life was someone else’s collar or cuffs.

Of course, there was much less work to hold a pen.

It wasn’t that I couldn’t catch it at all.

It wasn’t my first time catching it, so I couldn’t say I didn’t know how to catch it.

It wasn’t just a standard method, and the strange gripping method that I developed as a child still remains in my body as a habit.

Moreover, the first quill pen I ever held was a very difficult item.

The overall result was enough to make Elijah not satisfied.

Elijah took her pen and gave her a demonstration of how to hold it with her own hand.

“Like this. First, hold it with your thumb and forefinger, and hold it together as if your middle finger assists your index finger. Try again.”

“… Like this?”

“… ….”

Stiff hands.

The center of gravity of the pen is sloppy somewhere.

Because of Elijah’s nervousness, he held it more awkwardly than before.

Elijah couldn’t stand it and got up from her seat.

She went directly to Judas and took each of her fingers and healed her.

Her little fingers moved wildly around Judas’ hand.

“Like this.”

“Yes….”

“Try it.”

Elijah waited with her arms crossed.

Judas wrote her letters carefully, feeling like she had a strict teacher by her side.

The result was a mess even in my own eyes.

Somewhere strange result.

The scrawled handwriting was something more than bad handwriting.

It’s hard to just say that it’s not written well….

It’s a recognizable handwriting if you want to recognize it, but even this falls short of Elijah’s standards.

Elijah fell into profound reflection.

Looking back on the past.

Did she say this to herself?

No, the day she first picked up the pen wasn’t like this either.

She studied hard and got to where she is today, but she also had a natural talent.

She just doesn’t realize she is.

“Rewrite.”

“Yes….”

After that, Judas learned to write while being scolded for her mess.

*

“At this level, it’s better than before.”

Elijah looked at her notebook and nodded her head in satisfaction.

Judas, who was sitting across from her, had her hand go numb and she was about to die.

It’s harder than training.

“This is enough for today.”

“Yes…. Thank you….”

“Oh no. Take this.”

Elijah handed over a red blanket and a stuffed cat.

Judas stared down at the two objects in her hands.

‘They didn’t throw it away…. Are you sucking it back?’

Are you no longer needed?

I don’t know when I had it because I needed it, but that’s not what’s important now.

‘… What is it, why are you doing this?’

The object of why she did this was not Elijah, but she herself.

Now, Judah was disappointed.

Not a lot, but a little.

Really very little.

It is not a gift that was given in anticipation of receiving it in the first place.

A red blanket was also given to me without hesitation.

Even if Elijah returned it, there was nothing strange about her, but she was somehow disappointed.

Especially since she has been carrying it around for a while and then gives it back right away….

She was very awkward and disillusioned with herself.

The unruly concerns were dispelled by Elijah’s next words.

“Sleep with that for the time being. And give it back later.”

She didn’t return it at all.

She recalled her question, ignoring her relief.

Why?

What does this action mean?

Is this a new kind of abuse?

She did not have the heart to dispel Elijah’s question.

The secret that Judas did not know was simple.

After washing her, she didn’t smell like she used to.

The unique scent that calms her mind has disappeared.

She guessed that when Judas took it and she returned it, she would fly again.

Because it is similar to the incense that comes from him.

Not knowing that it was body odor, Elijah just ordered it.

“Let’s hug each other tightly. Understand?”

Judah had no choice but to follow her master’s command.

“Yes….”

***

“Guek….”

I fell on the floor and vomited.

Gawain in front scratched his neck shyly and said.

“Hmm. Sorry. You mismanaged your powers.”

“Geeek….”

I didn’t even have the energy to answer.

The accident happened in an instant.

It seemed like it would be easier to release magic than before, and it actually succeeded during the sparring with Gawain.

However, the power seemed to be much stronger than Gawain expected.

Gawain reflexively used great force to counterattack.

This is what happened right after that.

‘It’s understandable, since my magic stat has reached 28 all at once….’

I understand, but it hurts terribly.

“… Are you sick?”

“Geek….”

“Um….”

A person who usually doesn’t notice even when he’s hit hard seems to be pretty sorry.

Looking at them constantly asking questions and pacing around restlessly.

Well, I used more mana than expected, but I can’t help but feel sorry.

“Whoa…. I’m kind of fine now….”

I finally felt better.

I sat down against the wall and took a slow breath.

I have a little more time left for her personal training with Gawain, but I can’t do it today.

It seems that Gawain thought the same.

“Let’s finish here for today.”

“Yes….”

“This was clearly my mistake. Sorry.”

“No, that’s fine.”

I smiled airily.

“Isn’t the fact that you raised your strength, even for a moment, as proof that I’ve grown to that extent?”

If you think about it that way, it’s not too bad.

It hurts, but it hurts, but it’s like this sometimes when training.

Gawain stroked my beard and stared down at me, as if my answer was amazing.

“You have a surprisingly positive side.”

“You mean unexpectedly, what do you usually think of me?”

“… It is nothing.”

I really want to.

He’s a man with a slightly dumbfounded side.

“But I am not wrong. You’ve definitely become able to handle magic autonomously.”

That’s right.

Unlike before, when I couldn’t release my magic no matter how hard I tried, now I can control it according to my will.

You can’t control it perfectly like turning a switch off and on. Not yet.

You will only be released after getting hit a few times and getting a fever.

That’s why the threshold for release conditions is lower than before.

‘… Isn’t that just one step closer to anger management disorder?’

It’s quite strange, but it’s true that it’s easier than before.

That alone is enough to satisfy.

“And the size of the short new mana has also become much larger and stronger. It is difficult to compare to the past.”

It’s because of the characteristics and quest rewards, but it’s inexplicable, so I kept quiet.

“The results of hard work are seeing the light.”

That’s also true.

The influence of traits and quests is great, but I’ve never neglected training.

“Your growth is faster than I expected.”

“We benefit a lot from Sir Gawain’s teachings.”

“Mmm.”

He nods his head with a sound of satisfaction.

I just said it, but the reaction was that I liked it quite a bit.

‘I’m not saying it’s wrong.’

Of all my training routines, the time to compete with Gawain is the most intense.

You will be affected that much.

“I stopped the assassin who came looking for the lady. Even at the risk of death.”

“Oh, yes. Suddenly….”

“You did a good job.”

Gawain tapped me on the shoulder.

He smiles more clearly than ever.

It’s a look that looks very proud of me.

“Very good. Judah.”

This is the first time that I have been trusted so much by the person I am teaching.

I smiled along with him.

“Thank you.”

“Hmm. Good night. The second test is a simple fitness test. You will remember.”

“Yes.”

“With your skills, you should be able to pass easily.”

“I think so, but don’t let your guard down.”

“Hmm. That’s a good attitude. To advance in the future. You already know it well, but don’t forget and remember it anyway. Just like when I stopped the assassin this time, don’t hesitate in any situation.”

Don’t hesitate.

That’s what he always says every sparring.

Whatever it is, whatever it is that needs to be done, he advises never to hesitate.

“I know. Without hesitation, a sincere counterattack against the target….”

“I will go now.”

As Gawain ran away, but she walked away with a solemn gait.

I looked at him and laughed.

‘There are interesting corners when you get to know them.’

*

I was sitting in a corner of the playground at the training center.

I finished the second test today.

I passed the test.

It is time to take a break before going back after digesting the afternoon training.

I put my chin on my chin and stare blankly at the sky.

The sky is clear and the sun is warm.

Maybe spring is about to come soon.

Even in the corner of the playground, unknown grasses and flowers bloomed sparsely.

In that bright season, I was serious alone.

‘Am I such a bad handwriting….’

It was just that thought all along.

I’m sleeping with the doll Elijah gave me. It’s nothing to worry about.

It’s the first time in my life, but it’s not difficult.

Yesterday, while learning to read, Elijah scolded me.

No, rather than being scolded, what should I say….

Elijah has a calm and cool personality.

She doesn’t raise her voice or show her emotions well.

The same is true when it comes to education.

She didn’t point out or scold.

Just, he pressed me down with his gaze.

How could this be? I can see all my thoughts with my eyes.

The gaze of a genius who does not understand the general.

That’s it.

‘I may not be able to write…. It was funny though, saying that I improved after each class.’

Remembering the smiling face, I smiled unconsciously.

It was a laugh.

‘What the hell is this all about?’

Trying to run away from Elijah, she is being educated by Elijah.

There is no comedy.

‘If it weren’t for that tragedy….’

How to avoid tragedy.

The most certain thing is to make Elijah a reason not to kill me.

‘To be stronger than Elijah…. Common sense makes it impossible.’

Wizards are very strong.

Elijah was born with the greatest talent in her history among wizards.

There is no one to compare her to.

In effect, it is equivalent to asymmetrical power.

‘Elijah liked me….’

… Oh no. It doesn’t mean that, but as a moderately close master-servant relationship, wouldn’t that kind of tragedy happen, well….

‘Then has it already been achieved?’

I don’t know.

Because I can’t know what others are thinking.

In her first place, Elijah sees me as his own.

This means that it is not a person.

In other words, I wonder if I can always try to get rid of it if I don’t feel like it.

“Haa….”

Elijah strangles me.

Elijah laughing in front of me.

‘Which one should I believe….’

“Judas?”

Someone suddenly called my name.

“Why are you sighing so much?”

It was Lindel and Richard.

“I just have some concerns.”

“What? Worry? Like last time, uh, it’s like that, but are you just hiding it?”

Richard looked down at me suspiciously.

“It’s really no big deal this time.”

“Then is it a different concern? What’s wrong with you?”

The news spread that I almost died while protecting Elijah.

After that, Richard teased me whenever I had a chance.

Compared to Hermis, he’s quiet, but….

I shook my head and fought back.

“Senior, is things going well with Beninita-noona?”

“Well, you have no idea what that means?”

Richard’s tone has become gross and grotesque.

‘This is absurd. I’ve seen him get married and live a tight life.’

While Richard was alone, I asked Lindell.

“What are you doing? It looks like you have something to say.”

“Oh, what. It’s nothing.”

Lindel sat down next to me.

Richard was still running around like chasing bugs by himself, making excuses that sounded like alien words.

We tacitly agreed to ignore him.

“You know, when I sparred with Gulliot in the past.”

“It was already a long time ago.”

“At that time, after sparring, I asked if I could inform you.”

“… Ah yes. I remember. Is that now?”

“Hmm. What if you are comfortable?”

Anyway, today’s training is roughly over.

I have a little time to go back.

From noble mtl dot com

I woke up shaking my ass.

“Let’s try it.”

Reminds me of the old days, it’s good for me.

I have taught quite a few people after quitting my career as a player.

I am proud of my ability to teach.

If you follow the rules, you should start by teaching the technique of falling, but I am a little different.

If someone who has just started to keep falling, it will be boring and they will fall off.

‘In the beginning, it’s better to give them a sense of accomplishment and interest in learning something with a simple gripping method and a power struggle.’

After that, if you tell them along with the falling method right before the technique, they will follow you well.

I stood facing Lindel.

Richard watched from the side with an impudent face as if nothing had happened.

He said he wanted to learn too.

“First of all, let’s start with a situation where you don’t use a sword. Catch it here.”

I made Lindell grab me by the collar.

“Like this?”

“No, like this. Hook your middle, ring, and small fingers like hooks.”

“Is this right?”

“No, again like this….”

As I was fixing Lindell’s finger, I suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.

‘… Is it the same as when Elijah taught me?’

The gaze of a genius who does not understand the universal.

To be honest, I felt the same way when I was teaching the general public.

Why can’t this work? While doing.

Of course, I never showed it off.

I am a person who made it my vocation, and those people learn as a hobby.

The fact that I suddenly came to understand Elijah was a little funny.

“When pulling, you should basically think of pulling with your body, not your arms.”

“… What do you mean? Are you pulling with your body?”

There have been several adjustments since then.

Then, Richard also joined, and the people in room 13 rushed in one by one, and all of a sudden they gathered.

And I was teaching judo to each of those 11 people.

Education continued right before I left.

“Today I will stop here.”

I wonder if it was fun, they stayed behind to train.

I left the training center behind them.

I met Hermis on my way back.

“Ah, Mr. Judas. Are you done?”

“Yes. I’ll just go back.”

“Can I ask you one question?”

“What is it?”

“Do you remember when I asked you to find out about Judas-sama’s origins?”

“Ah, I did.”

“It belatedly reminded me that I should have asked Juda-sama if he remembered anything first.”

Hermis smiled shyly and scratched his head.

“Miss Elijah was waiting for me at the time, so I made a mistake.”

Says sorry.

… I’m sorry too, but I don’t know myself very well.

It won’t make much of a difference whether you ask then or now.

I followed her and laughed at her shyly.

“That…. Actually I don’t know either. I don’t remember.”

“Yes? Are you saying you have no memory at all?”

“As for my parents, yes. That’s right.”

If you make unnecessary excuses for no reason, it will only hinder your pursuit.

You have to say that you don’t know.

I can’t help it even if it’s an absurd excuse.

“Huh…. Did something like that happen….”

But for some reason, Hermis seemed to take pity on me.

“You must have suffered a lot.”

“… ….”

“You don’t have to worry. According to Yuri, many children looking for their parents do not remember anything from their childhood. Maybe you fell before you knew your parents….”

Perhaps to comfort me, Hermis started talking.

I felt guilty, but I couldn’t say no, so I listened in silence.

After the conversation was over, Hermis added.

“Ah. Today, the lady has informed us that she cannot join us for dinner.”

“Why?”

“Oh…. Are you pretty actively curious? Are you sorry you can’t eat together? Or do you miss it and just miss it?”

“… Let’s just go.”

She explained with her smirk.

“You did not give detailed reasons. He said he was inevitably absent due to important and busy work.”

“Hmm…. Girl, you’re always busy. It can be.”

It’s a pity, or something like that. Really.

I was just a little worried.

I’ve been feeding him breakfast and dinner lately.

Is it said that lunch without me makes you tickle?

I don’t eat alone.

‘I need to feed a lot…. How busy is this short guy going to skip dinner?’

Besides, I skipped breakfast today.

You say you have no appetite.

Even then, his expression was worse than usual.

I wonder if something is going on….

“You there.”

We were about to go back with Hermis, but someone suddenly blocked our way.

“Are you Judas?”

A sharp, high voice.

Woman.

He is short.

Are you the same age as me?

But I can’t see what it looks like.

Because of the deeply worn hood that covers the face and the robe that covers the ankles, the identity is unknown.

Hermis stood in front of me as if on alert.

“Who are you?”

“Huh. I have no interest in knights who take orders.”

He is quite arrogant and has a cheeky tone.

“Because I came looking for the one next to it. Cheonmin there. Are you Judas? Why no answer?”

She looks like a model of a noble lady who doesn’t care.

First of all, it is not Elijah.

Our Elijah is not like that…. No, who is our Elijah?

Because of a strange thought, the answer was delayed again.

“Huh. As expected of a dirty illegitimate child, it’s not very attractive to look stupid. No, should I say they look good together?”

“… Who are you? Where did the worm come from?”

Unbeknownst to me, a sharp tone came out.

Then the other person said “Uhhhhh” And laughed.

As if he had been waiting for that word.

***

Sarah D. Bebel.

The fifth child of Balak and Narsisi.

She is the youngest daughter in the direct line, except for Elijah.

She was originally scheduled to go to Elijah’s mansion with her other family.

In order to investigate Elijah’s abduction of Narcissus, all of her immediate family decided to visit.

Sarah did not go with them.

After dropping out due to a stomachache, she went straight to Elijah’s escort driver candidate training center.

‘Did you say Judas? The girl’s favorite boy.’

She did not dare to forgive Elijah for his cruelty to her mother.

But she couldn’t even bother Elijah herself.

A few years before she became independent from her family, Elijah’s personality had deteriorated.

She didn’t budge on anything. She

She said she was a fearsome wizard besides her.

So, instead of Elijah, she wanted to harass her object she cared about.

‘I’ll humiliate you in the face.’

The other person will be angry, and if you reveal your hidden identity then everything is over. Her

Her Sarah has always confirmed her status and power in that way.

Every time that happened, most of the lower class and the common people hurriedly lowered their heads in amazement.

Sarah hoped that Judas would too.

After fully savoring her sense of superiority, she will give instructions to the knight she brought and beat him up.

There is no way the lowly people would dare to tell Elijah what happened to him, the legitimate youngest daughter of the great nobleman, Archduke Balak.

So she has no way Elijah would know about this, and even if she did, it would be too late.

Sarah’s plan was perfect.

“… Who are you? Where did the worm come from?”

The opponent bit the bait.

Sarah laughed, feeling uncontrollable joy.

“Ha! Did you call me you now? And besides, buggy?”

Sarah threw off her hood and robe at once.

The hidden side is revealed.

Glamorously shining blonde hair was tied into two pigtails.

The clear red eyes resemble Elijah in that color.

The one-piece she was wearing was so elegant.

As expected by Judas, it was a young girl.

“How dare you speak stern words to the fifth child of Archduke Balak, Na Sara di Bebel!”

Sarah exclaimed vigorously.

She hides her duties and waits, then she reveals at the right time, and she never gets tired of this moment when she presses her opponent down.

The future in which that cheeky-faced boy would slam his head into the ground was clearly drawn.

“I immediately get down on my knees and apologize….”

However, Sarah’s expectations were wrong.

“Why me?”

“… What, what?”

“What does it mean to say that you are saying to buy something, and that you come to a person who is still and insult someone else’s owner without permission, apology?”

Sarah blinked her eyes quickly.

Her own hearing was questionable.

Judah didn’t wait for her and spat out more.

He had no intention of hiding his animosity.

“And where did you learn to hide her identity and reveal it as if you waited? Learning from the bad stuff. I think it’s all a lame aristocrat with a lot of time.”

“You, me, who am I….”

“Okay, come over here. Tear off both ends. No, just stay there. I’ll go….”

Sheep, chop off the sheep?

Sarah was out of breath.

There shouldn’t be anyone in the world who treats himself that way. She

She is the youngest daughter who always needs to be held up and loved by everyone….

“Yu, Yuda! You must be patient!”

Hermis hurriedly grabbed Judas and stopped him.

“Let go of this! Why are you so strong!”

“Please, Mr. Yuda!”

“Hey man! I can’t! I can’t go, so you come!”

Sarah trembled in her limbs.

Her legs felt weak, and for some reason, she had hiccups because she was sad.

“Heeuk….”

Sarah didn’t know who the opponent was.

Except that her name is Judah and she is favored by Elijah. Nothing.

Among the lowly and common people, she picked out and harassed only the weaklings who were expected to succumb to her, she could not have imagined such a thing now.

And then.

Someone appeared between them.

*

When Elijah returned home from his errands around evening, he confirmed that Judas had not yet returned.

Let’s count the number of cases.

The situation where the family decided to visit.

And considering the individual tendencies of the family, the reason why Judas still won’t come….

‘… Sarah?’

Instantly, the pupils are colored with crazy fire.

I felt annoyed for a moment.

‘Why today….’

She immediately used teleport.

Towards her training camp, the place where Judas will be.
