Chapter 109 (1/2)
In a pub that gave off a daed as Aleist stood to face Eunius' table
More than hiive the fact they looked down on Millia as a demi-human While those around Rudel instantly stopped him, the women from the defenders were unable to do the same for Aleist
He glared at the knights who flocked around Eunius, and the one who said it stood, a grin on his face
Aleist was the black knight, the eldest son of the Hardie Count House Even that title, before an archduke was overshadowed No ht was tot eh country, his role in the palace was cleaning duty It was surely only natural that the knights th, they had never seen it in humans
Humans had a tendency to lend an eye only to as most convenient
The laughing knight was tall in stature, over a head above Aleist When Aleist glared at hi manner
”Oh, how scary Our little black knight is angry”
”You lot better take back those words”
Rudel watched as Aleist ignored his foe's reactions, closing in and telling them to take back their reh the eneth, he saw that two people weren't necessary But his eyes drifted to Eunius While Eunius directed fed-up eyes to his followers, he didn't give off the same intensity he had at the acadenation
”Hah, don't push your luck, newbie Noyou say you were at the acadehts here We're in a different class froames”
”Class? You definitely do seem low-class”
Receiving that provocation, a few hts stood to take on his offer Unable to watch any further, Eunius breathed out a sigh as he apologized
”My bad, Aleist You lot sit down We have an important expo the day after tomorrow I don't want any trouble”
”S-sorry”
Before the knights who took their seats, Aleist was still unsatisfied, Grabbing the lapels of the knight who provoked him, he forcefully lifted him to his feet
”That's all well and good, now apologize Eunius' apology and your statement are a separate matter!”
His lapels grasped, the knight's face turned red as he gripped his fist There, the defender fehts finally stepped in to stop Aleist Millia seemed unmotivated, while she had stood, she just watched without holding him back
”… You're being a bother Sit down”
”Eh? … Okay'
Seeing Aleist dejectedly step down on Millia's words, those around put their best efforts into containing their laughter Frohs escaped, and so
Though the air surrounding Eunius and Luecke, and those around the else
”Even so, it sure is quiet”
Rudel reached a hand for the food and ale brought to the table as he spoke
Luxheidt put in an order for soht their food as he cheerfully answered Rudel's doubts
”Of course, e have three archdukes, plus so to be tense The only ones who'd dare make a ruckus in this heavy air are our little Enora in love, and that black knight over there”
While it didn't sound like the sort of thing anyone'd laugh over, Luxheidt was also a dragoon He had gone through his share of experiences, and obtained a dragon It was natural for him to be able to stay calm
Rudel looked at Aleist's table, seeing a situation where Aleist wanted to talk to Millia, but everyone around kept getting in the way
Looking at Izumi, she simply ate herWhen he thought nothing had changed, Rudel notices those around hie, little by little But more than that, Rudel showed soained soed as well, he thought…
”Love? Enora has someone she likes?”
”Hey! … It seeue”
While Enora was caught off-guard by Rudel's sudden stateazed at Luxheidt It was here that Rudel
”What's this? So the two of you were dating?”
”Wow, even I'ht you could look at that smile on Enora's face and come out with those words Rudel, look a little closer… her eyes aren't sht?”
Hearing that fro at hiht it was a little early for her to be drunk, but heout
”Oy, Luxheidt It doesn't look like Rudel gets it”
Even Rudel had to deny that one
”How rude I understand now that those two aren't going out”
Rudel was certain that he understood what Saas was trying to say, and both Saas and Luxheidt sighed Seeing the two of thehed
”Hah, it's scary to see hooht over there? Is he as creepy a guy as he looks?”
Luxheidt looked tiredly at Enora And after turning his eyes towards Aleist, he asked Rudel about his nature
”You're interested? He's a little strange, but he's a good person From what I know, he had five fiancés, but… looks like it's on the rise”
”For real? Just what sort of oddball does he have to be for you to call hie?”
”Saas, I get the feeling you'refun of me”
When Saas sent a truly surprised look at Aleist, the other dragoons looked at him as well They were curious just what sort of oddball he had to be for even Rudel to think he was a strange person
… But if they made a ruckus in that quieted-down store, then naturally, the other party would hear it as well On top of that, receiving pitiful eyes frooons, even Aleist would notice
”Hold it! I don't want to be called strange by you, Rudel! I haven't destroyed any training grounds or facilities!”
To a teary-eyed Aleist, a voice came from an unexpected place
It was Luecke
”Oh, now that's quite an intriguing state the annual budget has been wasted on the defenders”
Resting both his elbows on the table, Luecke folded his hands to cover his lared at Aleist For some reason, his follower civil officials also sent some bitter expressions at the defenders
