Chapter 232 – Wolf (2)

“It seems that Wolf’s relatives are speeding up the arrangement of the mansion and other property. After Mobius died, the atmosphere in the capital has deteriorated quite a bit. It is often said that nobles are beaten to death, and stones often fly through the windows of the Hero family. I think the people from that family will escape sooner than I thought.”

I cut Isabel’s thigh and nodded her head. When she turned her head a little, the warm sunlight was beating down from the window. A small break during the day. I said, touching her cheek as she was concentrating.

“So, what will the Plancia family do?”

“I think you want to ask us that. I’m not sure what to do. I guess they don’t want to judge.”

“Isabelle, what do you want to do?”

Isabelle heard my question and shook her head.

“I am… I don’t know. They say they are quietly running away, but I wonder if we have to interfere, and I wonder if we need to use more force, since the moment Hero Wolf dies anyway, they are no different from treason criminals in this kingdom. I would never come back.”

Crossing the sea required a lot of money and a sense of adventure. And it took more courage and recklessness to cross the sea again than the one who ran away. It was an obvious future for them to commit evil deeds and corruption on other continents, but isn’t that someone else’s business after all?

There was no reason to judge him for a sin he hadn’t committed yet. The time was not right to judge them for their sins. In a situation where the hero is unstable like now, I didn’t want to buy the hero’s wrath by killing the hero’s family. We had to build our strength by living as if we weren’t there until the others took away the hero’s strength.

“What do you want Evan to do?”

Isabelle looked down at me with her clear eyes, she asked. I said, stroking her nose.

“Let’s just let it go. Please tell me to treat you well.”

“Okay. Evan. Then…”

Isabel smiled and picked up her pen and paper when I heard a voice calling me from outside her window.

“Evan! It’s training time again! Come out quickly!”

It was the voice of Petunia Titi. Having adventured with the hero, she was helping with training to deal with the hero. She squeezed in some time and the fatigue and muscle aches returned to her body as she lay down. She was meticulous in her training, in contrast to her lax behavior and her sloppy personality.

Isabel looked at me with a sad look on her face, and I got up and kissed Isabelle and her. Her soft lips pressed together, and the faint scent of flowers wafted out. They stuck out their tongues, rubbed the tips together, and shared a breath while smiling. Rubbing my flushed face once, I jumped out the window and said,

“I am going right now!”

“You can just walk out.”

Said Petunia Titty, thrilled as she watched me cling to the railing and descend like a monkey. A stern but faint smile hung on her face, and I said holding onto the second floor railing with both of her arms.

“I’m being taught by elves, so I’ll have to practice climbing trees.”

“Elves don’t climb trees like that, do they? Even in the act of climbing trees, we pursue elegance.”

“Okay? How are you riding?”

Petunia Titi jumped her to the railing from which I was hanging, then she stood on tiptoe on the railing and said:

“Look Carefully. For now, it’s important to stand on her toes. You stand on your toes, distributing your weight.”

She stood on the edge of her balustrade and lifted one of her legs like a ballet dancer. And she began to turn her body slowly, as the ornaments on a cuckoo clock turn on an alarm. I put her hand on her railing and stared at her.

“Oh, great. Awesome.”

Petunia Titti seemed a little lifted by the sound of her voice praising herself. She twitched her lips, pricked her ears, and began to lean back.

“And when you get to that level of balancing and weight distribution…”

Her body slanted diagonally like a flag on a balcony railing. However, even in that state, her toes were still firmly attached to the edge of the railing, and her lean body swayed in the wind, but showed no sign of falling.

“This way, I can balance my body at the same level as a tree branch.”

After briefly sweeping the yard, Elena tilted her head and moved her head to follow my gaze as I stared blankly at the second floor.

“Wow, what is it? Is it magic?”

Petunia Titi shook her head at the word magic, spun in the air and landed on her floor. She landed effortlessly, and there was not a single sound of her footsteps. Petunia Titi looked at me and Elena and said with a proud expression.

“How is it. Isn’t that great?”

“Awesome. After all, they are the elite of the elven forest.”

Petunia Titti said, shaking her head more vigorously at my praise.

“Okay. I mean, I’m not someone you can tease all the time. I wish I knew by now. Shall we start training then?”

I nodded, and Elena moved away again as we prepared for her training. Just in time, Sophia whined as she was dragged by her taffy’s hand.

“Master can become stronger, but why do I… !”

“Just in case. Training. I need.”

Taffy said plainly, wearing her wide-brimmed hat. Her taffy was a bit smaller, so the sight of her Sofia clinging to her felt rather odd to her. Sophia said, hanging like a barrel attached to her pulley.

“The owner said he would protect you!”

“You’re whining. Not good.”

Then Taffy said one word firmly, and Sofia, her face whitening, looked at her floor and said,

“Ah, yes…”

I asked Sophia and Taffy.

“What about Milia?”

“Magic. I’m teaching you. To Sylvia.”

It seemed that he was teaching her an advanced course that the Mage Tower old maid had not been able to teach her. Later, when I finished my studies, I thought that I should definitely sort out our relationship with Milia. Who is higher is implicitly determined, but unconfirmed relationships inevitably lead to uncomfortable variables.

“Then we should talk a little later. Other than that Milia, she doesn’t do anything else, right?”

Sophia shook her head and said.

“No. She’s been to the basement a few times, saying she had something to experiment with.”

“Experiment?”

“They say it’s not dangerous for us, but it’s good. I’m not sure what.”

She was a very unknown woman. No matter what she asks, she repeats that she has forgotten or doesn’t know, like a politician, and always smiles. What does she want to do? What does she want from me?

Can we remain partners?

Thinking so, I nodded to Taffy, and Taffy gestured to Sofia to take her place.

“Now then, today, continuing from the last time, moving while maintaining the center of the body…”

Taffy’s words rang pleasantly in the wind. On the second floor, Isabel, who deliberately dragged a table outside, was watching us as she wrote her letter. Looking at the sky, it seemed that it would be clear for a while.

*******

The Plancias were doing their best to help members of the Hero family dispose of their property. Each member seemed to have a lot to say about this heartless family, where the hero was about to flee abroad at the moment of greatest danger, but everyone kept silent.

Rats listen to night talk and birds listen to day talk. Everyone knew what would happen if you made fun of your mouth.

And everyone knew what a little silence would pay off.

It was inconvenient to know that the reward for keeping the faith of everyone in the family, given by the family of Plancia, was that of Isabel. It was because he somehow became Isabel’s servant and was in a position to follow her orders. The other members were busy keeping an eye on each other as they watched the leadership of the faltering family.

“Oh my…”

But that didn’t mean there were any tricks. If I didn’t join hands with Isabel here, the ending would only be one of two things. Either die with the hero or join hands with the idiots and be killed by the hero. The hero was getting weaker day by day, but even so, he was not a being that could be dealt with with the power of a single noble family.

The clumsy plot and the presumptuous vanguard were only elements that reminded us of the futility of fate.

To stay in the shadow of success by grabbing a solid backing. It was the value and goal that the Plancia family had pursued throughout their lives. The family of Plancia thought that Isabel’s back boat was the most likely to gain power.

And when the being came to power, he thought he could become his closest aide.

“Once this job is over, I’ll push old Isabelle away. I don’t know what that bastard is up to, but he’ll realize that I’m a more resourceful and decent person than that bitch.”

The family head of Plancia muttered that. She had no one to answer. The lord of Plancia did not like to reveal such a dangerous idea. He was alone, smoking a cigarette, looking at the huge ship prepared in the dock.

The people of the warrior family were on a boat to leave with gold and silver treasures, but the family treasures were still in the warehouse.

Depending on the letter Isabel sent today, it was determined whether the box would contain stones or gold and silver treasures. In the distance, the patriarch saw the messenger running toward her, gasping for breath. He held out the letter that had arrived at the family, and the family head threw a silver coin and patted him on the back.

“Let’s see…”

Gaju started reading the letter with a face full of anticipation.

[Content has been delivered. I would like to receive the cargo comfortably.]

A short reply sent because there is a risk of being stolen by someone.

But that was enough. Gaju laughed and tore up the letter and threw it into the sea. And he said to people far away.

“Who doesn’t have crabs!”

The large workers raised their bodies and answered.

“Yes, Lord!”

Gaju said.

“Very comfortable! Work on it so you can serve it!”

“Yes!”
