Chapter 98: 055 Charlotte Heraiz (Part Two)
The way I see it, sure, it’d be really great if I could surround geration to say Charlotte was soest time with, out of everyone I’ve met so far
She was also the only one that I did trust implicitly in this world too, which hy this kind of left a bitter taste in my mouth
If it was her… She could’ve lived a happy, fulfilling life as a si of the un you couldn’t do with a sanetheir antics froe point, she should be well aware of that fact But even then, she still volunteered to beco to do with her unyielding deterht However, it won’t do for a Paladin serving me to have a face like that”
Charlotte flinched and hurriedly lowered her head
“T-this was…” She hesitated with the answer before finally th of hness”
Maybe the thing about sparring causing her injuries wasn’t a lie? That onlyherself instead
“What kinda middle-schooler syndrome nonsense is this?”
Iinjured
“Who cares about soet hurt, I’ll just heal you and that will be all”
“…?”
“You said you’ll be my exclusive Paladin, didn’t you?”
Charlotte’s eyes opened soat her surprised face, I poked her forehead withso
“In that case, you won’t have to worry about getting hurt, you know? But if you do get injured somehow, I’ll definitely heal you”
I injected a little more divinity
All the bruises, wounds, and old scars dotting her face gradually disappeared
I reached out with es wrapped around her head
“Whether it be s wound, I’ll make sure not even a rees cale blemish revealed itself, and the pair of red eyes on that face began tre you back to life even if I have to straina better look at Charlotte’s face
“So, what could possibly be the probleer, and took another large bite out of it
Clearly looking dazed, Charlotte didn’t say anything for a while
I pushed forward her untouched burger towards her and asked, “What’s your answer?”
A change happened in her expression Her previous emotionless face crumbled away and a truly radiant sht There aren’t any problems”
(TL: In 3rd person POV)
The sun set beyond the horizon and the night visited the world once ; Oscal was furrowing his brows rather deeply
He was observing Charlotte’shis head this way and that
‘Soed’
She was currently sparring against the Golden Cross knights
Herwouldn’t be possible just because she had her body healed
Her eyes that seey were now filled with hardened resolve
Every tihts had to take faltering steps back
‘…It isn’t just the fatigue of her body, but even her mind has been refreshed Did she find a pillar of support that she can lean on?’
Oscal continued observing her with great interest
Charlotte sucked in a deep breath She was recalling the event from earlier in the day
-I wish to becohness
For the first time ever, she spoke her true intentions to the I his Paladin
And to reach her goal…
‘I will not give up’
…She needed to becoround and then performed a powerful upward slash with her sword
The Golden Cross knight flinched in surprise and raised his scabbard to block the strike
Her sword and the knight’s scabbard collidedout and the knight’s scabbard was shattered to bits
Even his armoured body was powerfully knocked away, and he crashed into nearby trees before bouncing back to the ground The Paladin forgot about his pain and stared at Charlotte’s sword, his eyes beneath the heluise his shock
Divinity was perht as if the holy energy from the Gods and metal had infused to becoround
His expression became utterly stupefied as he muttered out “…Truly excellent You are indeed a ed to reach your level at your age!” He shot up fro Charlotte, he extended his hand after failing to suppress his exciterow even further And for the sake of the Imperial Family…”
“I don’t want to”
“What?”
Oscal’s steps came to a halt
He stared at Charlotte and tilted his head
She had her face turned towards hie my loyalty to the Imperial Family”
Oscal’s dazed expression instantly cru right now?! You are a member of the Order of the Golden Cross! We brave even death to fulfil our duty histo my oishes I’m not anyone’s puppet”
From this moment on, she wanted to clearly state herself
To announce to everyone that she was a puppet of no one but her own
