Chapter 138

Hwiig-! (the sound of the sword)

Just before reaching the scarecrow. The wooden sword stopped suddenly, leaving only a narrow gap enough to fit a piece of paper.

Huaaakkk-.

The straw powder flew. A gust of wind blew around with the sound of a wave.

But as time passed, and the wind subsided, the scarecrow didn’t even get any scratches.

They reached the stage of spouting the sword, but they were not yet gathered at the end of the sword and scattered every time.

Eclise lowered the sword that had been pushed in with an expressionless face. Disappointment flashed through his dull gray eyes.

-You’ve got a lot of thoughts these days.

-There are so many thoughts about the guy who came to practice every time.

Yesterday, I remembered what my teacher, Sir Spencer, said, hitting his head with a wooden sword. Eclise shook his head sharply and raised the sword again. And he looked at the end of the sword.

However, the concentration did not last long. It was because of the face of someone who grew up instead of black at the end of the sword.

-Eclise.

His only owner has no smile, it was cold and cold. But he was still lonely and alone. Even to anyone, he did not give his heart to the slave he himself bought.

Eclise knew better than anyone. That she is buying and taking care of himself at a high price to achieve a purpose.

Unlike her beautiful mouth, she said she was worried every time, but her eyes staring at himself never had warmth…..

And yet he could not tell why he was waiting for her.

Eclise hated her until she bought himself saying she would send him back to the auction house if he didn’t prove useful. In fact, he hated not only her but all the empires.

‘Stupid bitch.’

He had vowed to thoroughly use the stupid woman who had bought him 100 million gold. Now I’m acting like a dog licking her mound, but when I get the chance, I’m going to break her slender neck and leave the fucking Duke and the Inca Empire.

(note: my blood pressure got high when i translated this)

But the pledge was broken with a woman’s smile every time. The cold and cold-hearted master sometimes smiled and was as beautiful and fascinating as the queen of the magicians in the legend.

Often when I closed my eyes and whispered to me, I wanted to give up everything and settle down. Nothing changed, even though I started learning swords from outside the Duke to guard against him.

-You’re a very important person to me. ‘The important person.’

What does that mean? She said she needed it.

A defeated country slave. Unlike other empires who spit when they know my status, she held himself desperately every time.

-You are a very precious person to me, Eclise

Penelope’s words, which were ringing in his ears were a little different from the reality. But he didn’t care.

‘I’m precious to you.’

The grayish-brown pupils were disheveled. The tip of the sword shook. ‘Even if I escaped from the Empire, there is nowhere to go back.’

Master was right. Now the homeland was completely destroyed and neatly disappeared on the map. The Delman people whom I met not long ago were resentful, but surprisingly most of them were alive and happy.

Unlike the barren land of Delman, this place was rich in resources and civilization is much more developed. Besides, the treatment of slaves was not so bad. It’s less than the ordinary people, but it pays a certain amount of money.

Some people even said this place is like a heaven compared to Delman, who was starving to death due to drought.

Eclise couldn’t say anything to them. On the farm, his life was so prosperous that he couldn’t even talk about it compared to the slaves.

‘My master did everything I asked her to do, and what i wanted.’

Treatment, hunger, learning, even free time was not allowed to slaves. Hnowing it was a crazy idea, he found it difficult to control this seething feeling.

Since when did it start? Her mysterious ulterior motives, which had been constantly wary of, were now appalled. It was okay to use myself. In other words, it meant that he wanted to keep herself around as much.

It was good to pray like a dog kneeling in front of the Empire without any pride. He had no money to repay her. So he could break the flower stalk and make a flower crown to offer it to her and cry miserably for it.

(note: i wanna cry when i translated this)

‘As long as you can stay by my side, whatever.’

His eyes, which had been released looking at the azalea’s bright hair glaring in the air above the wooden sword, were flashing in a moment.

“Hi.”

A small voice echoed behind his back. Hwiig- (the sound of the sword)

Eclise turned and aimed the sword reflexively, only to throw it on the floor.

It was different from before. The body, not the head, first recognized who the owner of the soft voice was. Like an instinct.

It wasn’t an illusion, but the azalea colored hair that appeared as a reality made me dizzy. “Master.”

Eclise called her in a panting voice.

*****

I was amazed at the action of Eclise. Also, I didn’t want to have an experience that would have been hit by a wooden sword, so I stood up from a distance. However, he threw a wooden sword on the floor and turned his back.

As he turned his shoulders and I smiled awkwardly and slowly approached him. “You didn’t go to swordsmanship class today.”

It’s a little surprising that I know every single move, and Eclise’s eyes are grew a little bigger.

“I heard that the family’s boilers went to outside camp training, so wouldn’t you feel lonely if you were left alone?”

(note: idk who is the boilers mean)

When I added the reason he came with a smile, and he said, ‘Ah!’ and made a brief silence.

“Because my teacher has something to do… So I decided to go late in the afternoon for a few days, Master.”

“Really?”

In fact, it wasn’t that important whether he went or not. I held out the big package I brought to him. “Here.”

It was bulky and wasn’t as heavy as I thought. Last time, the clothes were delivered through the servants, and it was a relief that I could give them myself this time.

“What is this?”

“I’ve got some ointment and herbs.”

He stared at me with a curious look. I spoke in a calm voice so as not to appear too vivid.

“Didn’t you say that you had to go through the mountains because there was no medicine to cure the injured?”

“……..”

“I’ve only packed good ones, so take it and hand them out to the people in need.”

I couldn’t give him the money to buy medicine. Because the defeated slaves may gather and form some kind of party. This was all I could do.

“Master.”

I thought you’d be happy, but Eclise expression was strange. He looked at me with a subtle look, as if he were lifting up again and sticking out a crumpled flower crown. An unknown passion swirled in his pupils.

“You’re self-respecting, don’t you want to take it?”

I asked carefully with a sudden fear. Eclise shook his head quickly. “No, it’s not that.”

“Then what are you doing. Come on without answering.”

At my urging he soon slowly raised his arm. I saw your hand tremble faintly towards the sack I put out. ‘Are you impressed?’

It wasn’t possible by facial expression, so I brushed my fingers pretending to hand over the sack. Immediately a white square window appeared before my eyes.

Would you like to confirm the favorability of [Eclise]? [12 million gold/200 reputation]

‘Crazy, 12 million?!’

No matter how soon I was about to become a rich man, the uncontrollable surge of favoritism also shook my stomach at the confirmation price. I clenched my teeth and struggled to choose [12 million gold].

Subtract [12 million gold] to check the favorability of [Eclise]. (Remaining funds: 46,000,000 gold)

[Favorite 96%]

However, as soon as I saw the figure floating above his head, the thought of a waste faded away far away.

‘4%·······!’

Joy came. It was really soon now. Soon. I thought, now trying not to show my trembling heart with joy. ‘But maybe it’s because the ending is coming up soon, so it doesn’t rise as much as it used to be.’

In the past, when you hand something over, 5% went up to the basics, but certainly recently it’s gone. I had a little bit of a bad appetite for the significantly reduced increase. It was then.

“Thank you very much, Master.”

Eclise gently lowered his eyes and murmured in a small voice. Before I knew it, I saw a black red gauge bar and a letter that changed to [Check for Likes.].

It was still an ominous color, but was the high altitude right before us? It wasn’t used as much as it used to be. However, the ending had one more condition besides 100%.

“By any chance”

I took my gaze over his head and faced him as naturally as possible. “Don’t you have anything else to say to me besides that?”

“Yes? What”

“Oh no, nothing.”

As I glanced, I shook my head at once in his bewilderment. ‘Because I have not filled 100% yet.’

I grinned as I tried to press down on my nervousness.

“What a lovely day. Do you want to go somewhere together today?” “Play?”

“You’re tired of training everyday.”

His eyes were smiling like a schoolboy who didn’t know anything about it. It was a moment when I couldn’t even look back at Eclise, who had lost his breath, in the joy that this tedious life was just around the corner.

“Miss Penelope!”

Someone called me at a distance. As I turned, someone was approaching at the entrance of the fence with a quick step.

“Butler?”

I tilted my head at the sight of the butler, who came to me suddenly. Whether there was an emergency, he reached me and Eclise in a month for urgent business.

“I’m afraid you’ll have to come back to the mansion, my lady.” He breathed violently and spat out like a rapid fire.

“What’s the matter?”

“Please give me an ear for a moment”

The butler, who glanced at him as if Eclise was bothered, lowered his head. I turned completely to the butler and gave him an ear.

“The Crown Prince’s aide visited the mansion.” “What?”

I was panicked by the sudden news. But soon I could see why The Crown Prince sent his subordinate. ‘There must be something left about Soleil.’

It was a game, but there was no delay because it was an imperial order with national security. “Let’s go.”

I immediately followed the butler. No, I was about to. The hem of the skirt suddenly became tight. I turned my head in surprise.

“You came to see me, Master.”

I could see the face of a mess of Eclise.
