Chapter 83
Dust rose on the training ground.
About 10 seconds have passed since then.
Let the dirt in the training ground disappear.
“Whoa….”
Between the two appeared Thomas, the head of the Davidic family.
With both hands wrapped around the auror, he blocked the attack of the two men.
“It’s too intense for a Dalian.”
“Ahahaha.”
At that, Kane smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of his head.
Willy also scratched the side of his head to see if he was embarrassed.
“ha. I’ve heard a lot of rumors that things have changed. I wish I had grown up like this. That’s amazing, Kane.”
“I was just trying to die.”
Trying to die doesn’t make you strong that fast. son
I wanted to say, but it wouldn’t be any good if I had to say it.
Thomas sighed and looked at Willy.
Unlike before, she looks at Kane with respect, not with contempt.
“Willie. How was it against Kane?”
“… strong.”
strong.
Willie spit it out.
To say that she is strong enough to say that she is the son of the David family, I would not be ashamed to say honestly.
In other words. Willy is saying he approves of Kane.
For a moment, Thomas looked at his hands.
“········.”
If I hadn’t stopped him, maybe Kane would have won.
Even so, the one who blocked Kane’s attack hurts more.
However, if we fight again, it is clear who will win.
‘Willie will win.’
The only reason Kane had the best chance of winning now was because of her carelessness.
If we fight again, Willy is sure to not be vigilant anymore.
That was then.
“Lord.”
A family assassin appeared before him.
Thomas turned his head to him with a pleasant smile.
“why. Is that so?”
“that····.”
The assassin spoke quietly so that no one around him could hear it.
When the assassin finished speaking, Thomas narrowed his eyes.
“okay. i get it.”
With those words, the assassin disappeared from sight.
Thomas sighed and exclaimed.
“ha. all. Now stop watching and let each one do their own thing!”
Except for Kane and Willy, everyone in the family responded by bowing their heads.
Soon each of them left to do their jobs.
Thomas turned his gaze to Kane.
“Kane. You want to talk to me for a moment.”
“yes. All right.”
Kane nodded and followed him.
***
The place where Thomas had arrived was none other than Gajul.
Follow him into the room.
“Knox, the butler of the Ford family, meets Thomas, the head of the David family.”
Knox stood up, placed his palm on his left chest, and bowed his head.
rifford clan?
A duke family whose name and settings only appeared in the game.
As I remember, I tried to bring my daughter who ran away from me when I was young in order to connect with the Valentina family, one of the most famous families on the Leicton Continent…
‘Is it the setting that your daughter is dead?’
In the end, her daughter died and she could not be associated with the Valentina family.
uhm. nothing but this
why. I don’t know if the duke’s family has anything other than this in the setting book, but I’m guessing it’s ruined.
Otherwise, there is no reason why the Duke’s family doesn’t appear in the setting book properly.
While I was thinking about the game settings for a moment. Thomas opened his mouth.
“okay. I barely heard the story, but can you explain it again?”
“yes.”
Knox nodded, sat down and drank the tea on the table.
“yes. The reason I’m here is none other than the daughter of the duke.”
“First of all, about the young lady, she was not loved by her family when she was young. There are many reasons, but I think it may be because it was defective.”
“error?”
He tilted his head at Knox’s words.
Well, is there something lacking somewhere?
“that. To put it simply, that’s what the Lipfords call someone with just a bit of talent.”
“ah·····.”
just. It means someone who has no talent.
“Anyway, because of that, when I was young, the young lady was very depressed because she didn’t receive love, but she had the only friend to open her heart to, so it was better at the time.”
“But, for some reason, that friend also began to separate from the young lady. And so, again, the young lady was lonely even though there were countless people in the mansion.”
“After living alone like that, the young lady suddenly ran away from home. He probably did it because he thought that if he ran away from home, he would get attention. So anyway. At the time, I was trying to find the young lady, but the family stopped me from doing it.”
Knox clenched his fists in anger at the thought of those days.
Then he takes a deep breath and continues.
“Whoa. So, in the end, the family did not find the young lady and left her alone… Something happened recently.”
“Work?”
Knox nodded at my question.
“yes. The Lipford family… Frankly, it lacks a lot compared to other Duke families. From finances to the military.”
“As a result, the elders and head of the family were very nervous, but an offer came in from the Valentina family.”
“Aren’t you planning on getting your son and his daughter engaged to him?”
It was about engagement.
Well, in fact, there is no reason to bring a runaway daughter to you unless that is the case.
Convincingly, he rolled his eyes for a moment and looked at Thomas.
He folded his arms and closed his eyes with a serious expression on his face.
what? Why are you making that face?
Thinking about it, something is strange.
I understand what’s going on with Knox in front of you.
But why do you have to tell us that?
When I’m pensive for a moment Knox goes on to say:
“People in my family thought that if the engagement to the Valentina Sons were made, they would have good talent, so they gladly accepted it.”
“I started looking for a young girl who ran away from home in my family like that a few months ago.”
As Knox finished speaking, I suddenly remembered what happened in the field experience study.
Riche, who was in color after seeing the request in the Royal Capital Guild.
At the time, she didn’t say anything for some reason, but what if the girl Knox was talking about was Riche?
Everything is right back and forth.
The Lipford family must have been desperately looking for her.
Then, of course, the most likely place for her to be is none other than the royal road.
It’s easier to find a job there compared to other provinces.
The Lipford family must have sent a request to the guild.
The picture I saw on the request page was none other than a picture of a very young child.
It also resembles Richie.
Yes… then everything will be explained.
The setting house stated that the runaway daughter had died.
In the original, Riche would have been killed by Kim Soo-yong.
So the game settings are the same.
······f*ck.
Let me curse inside for a moment.
“And the lady we were looking for was the maid David von Kane was carrying.”
The guy did a confirmation kill.
There was silence at those words.
The maid I carry with me.
You know who you are just by looking at it.
That’s right, except for Riche, everyone knows about the past.
In fact, it’s no different from just plainly saying that your exclusive maid, Richie, is a girl from our family.
“therefore.”
“····yes?”
“So what, what?”
“········.”
Knox, who stood still without saying anything to me.
I ignored the guy’s reaction and pushed him.
“Why are you blatantly trying to bring back Richie, who ran away from you when they were young, and left it unattended? Do you have no conscience?”
“········.”
He didn’t know what to say, so he kept his mouth shut.
“If you have any conscience, turn it off.”
“no. Take me.”
As I finished my words, Thomas opened his mouth.
Hearing his words, I opened my eyes and looked at Thomas.
“father. just now·····.”
“Did you say Knox? Take Richie.”
“·····yes. All right.”
“And it would be better not to show up in front of us again.”
“yes····.”
With those words, he disappeared before us.
Soon I opened my eyes and looked at Thomas.
“father. Are you sure you don’t plan on letting Richie go like this?”
“········.”
Thomas keeping my question silent.
He slowly opened his mouth.
“Kane. I didn’t see anything no matter what you did.”
“yes?”
“No matter what you do, no one in our family has seen anything.”
“·····yes. All right.”
With those words, I also went outside.
***
“Whoa….”
okay. Let’s calm down.
Would Thomas, the owner of the house, honestly want to let Richie go?
He probably didn’t want to let Riche go.
However, unlike the others, he is the head of the family.
A position to protect the people of the family, not to protect one Riche.
So, there is nothing that Thomas can do.
Because you can’t play with two dukes.
Are you sure you didn’t see anything?
That’s the same as saying that I will tolerate whatever I do.
Well, Thomas must have said something like that because he thought I wouldn’t do anything openly.
‘how will we do it····.’
As I was walking with that thought in mind, Knox and Riche with a gloomy expression behind him appeared in front of me.
Richie and my eyes met.
“for awhile. Is it okay if I talk to Riche alone?”
“yes. All right.”
In response to my question, he nodded without hesitation as to whether he had a narrow conscience.
“Rice. Let’s go to my room for a moment.”
“yes·····.”
About three minutes have passed since then.
Soon it arrived in front of my room.
went into the room.
“········.”
“········.”
Cold air circulates in the room.
It was none other than Riche who broke the silence first.
“I heard about my past.”
“uh. I just heard from the butler.”
“yes. To be honest, I looked at the royal road guild request last time and thought that something like this might happen someday. I never knew it would be today.”
“········.”
“For some reason, today’s dream was not good…”
Saying those words, Richie lowered her head.
I thought about the game settings for a moment.
The Lipford family collapses as the original.
Of course it’s not definitive.
It’s just a guess.
However, since Richie died in the original, the engagement ceremony must have failed.
Therefore, the Lipford family would have gone to hell.
Of course, I don’t understand why people go all the way if their engagement ceremony fails, but the important thing is that I thought so.
Whether the Lipford family was destroyed in the original or not, you just have to destroy it.
“don’t worry.”
“······?”
Richie tilted her head at my words.
I told Richie the answer she wanted.
“Whether it’s the Duke of Ford or the Valentina, I don’t care if they get in the way. You will never give it away…”
It doesn’t matter which ones
Church, Kingdom?
no matter what kind of bastards get in the way
“I will come to the rescue. I’m waiting for you.”
Richie will never let it go.
House Lipford turned me into an enemy.
So it is destruction.
They were in communion with the denomination.
there is no evidence
But it doesn’t matter.
If you don’t have it, you can create it.
