Chapter 248 – Sea Nights Are Hot and Rough #03

Douglas Santana, the captain of the St. Michael, was a keen sailor who spent more than 40 years at sea.

His mission this time is to safely escort the Imperial Knights and important personnel to the mainland.

The crew of the St. Michael were very nervous because there were as many as two knights and their leader, the vice president of the academy and Agnes, the imperial princess, were on board.

It was for this reason that the captain, Douglas Santana, personally visited the VIP room to report on the voyage.

The first mate and the boatswain, who are like his own limbs his, are, of course, imperial people, so is n’t he asking the captain himself, who is from the Republic of Korea, to do the job for this one time while arguing?

I understand. Among the imperial people in the VIP room, there were few people of high rank, so if I made a mistake out of tension in such a situation, I was afraid of what would happen to my family on the mainland.

Of course, it is not certain that such nobles exist in reality, but sailors are a corporation sensitive to superstition and jinx, so they want to avoid such risks in advance.

But now, Captain Douglas was in deep regret that he should have beaten his men and not come in person.

“Princess, are you okay?”
“… Ha.”
“Cheer up, Princess… The captain is here now, so you have to keep your cool!”

Even at the cry of Norman, the head of the escort, Agnes, who was lying on her table her, showed no signs of recovering. Douglas, who was standing there to report, couldn’t help but panic.

‘What? Is this…A new way for land people to daunt sailors?’

Native land people tend to ignore the sailors who fight the sea with the little world of ships. How much did Douglas suffer from the aristocrats’ abuse when he was on board as a second mate?

Among the bullying, the most painful was the force of abuse that made him stand in front of him and wait. To stand still for over an hour and not be able to do anything was to distress the patience of the sailors, who were in the field.

However, it was hard to think that what happened now was simply a landlord’s abuse of power to prey on the sailors. It was because I could understand the atmosphere just by looking at the troubled expressions of the knights standing on either side of the student girl called the princess.

“Chetong… Yes, chetong. I have to keep my body tight too. Yes? Because Artin’s face has fallen to the ground.”
“Isn’t that what you mean? Princess Agnes…!”

Captain Douglas’ guess was actually true, but Agnes had been half stunned ever since the bizarre sight of Artine parading atop a Unicor in front of everyone.

Some people know that the girl is a Unicor, but not everyone who witnesses it knows that.
In other words, the story that Artin’s current image is descending vertically.
It was hard for Agnes herself to know what kind of rumors would be circulating among the students now, when there would have been no end to the cubism of the luxury men.

“It was something that would happen someday in the first place. How dare a low-ranking noble in a kingdom without such a foundation be the princess’s fiancé!”
“Lark, be careful with your words. What kind of habit are you talking about to Princess Agnes’ fiancé!”
“Captain Norman, this is not her fiancée to take sides! Isn’t the honor of the imperial family on the floor!”
‘Damn it, why did I come here…’

Now, seeing the knights arguing with her princess in front of her, Captain Douglas felt like he had come to a place where he shouldn’t have been, so he couldn’t help but notice.

“…Okay, I’ve decided.”

At that time, Agnes, who had been staring blankly at the empty space in this mess, jumped up from her seat.

“I’m going out for a while!”
“Yes? What is that…?”
“There is no answer to worrying alone! I want to talk to someone who knows Artin better than anyone else!”
“Yes? Princess? Where are you going suddenly, princess?!”

Agnes suddenly jumped up from her seat and ran out of the room.
Leaving the knights, ladies-in-waiting, and captain behind, who had been staring blankly at the sight, Agnes hurriedly ran to the magic circle of the portal connected to each ship.

“Is that why I came? Why?”
“Because of all the people I know, you know Artin the best.”

When such Agnes opened my door without knocking and came in, Zorba put on a very embarrassed expression.

It’s a different form from Artin, but for Zorba, who has his own harem, this dungeon practice is one of the few opportunities to enjoy the silence.

Of course, he knew that the Demon King’s army would attack soon, but he it was decided to be protected by the Heavenly Demon along with Teacher Senia when the battle broke out, so he was halfway resting as if he were on vacation.

“Is it okay for someone who even has the nickname of the arrogant ice princess in the student council to come into the room of an outsider like this?”
“I have never had the experience of being in danger of chastity from a man weaker than me. Zorba Pelkas. I know very well that you are not that kind of man.”
“… Wouldn’t it have been neat to just say the latter? Anyway, take a seat.”

Only then did Agnes realize that the behavior of herself, who had rushed into his room her, was not so desirable, and she cleared her throat and sat down in his seat her. Agnes looked at Zorba as if he was very curious.

“It’s definitely amazing. The Princess Agnes I knew was someone who always meticulously arranged her demeanor her for the sake of her outward appearance her. Is she saying that this is the power of love?”
“Are you kidding me? We wouldn’t have been that friendly.”
“If you can’t even joke like this to a person who came to consult with you about your worries, you’ll use it, but you’re one of those people who know better than anyone how much I do for Artin.”
“That…”

It was true. Zorba was the biggest help to Agnes when the warrior she was traveling with became a woman, the rumors spread as more women around her, and even when the author called her second sister her spread strange rumors.

Isn’t Zorba taking Cayenne’s friend Claire around these days, and despite Artin’s long-awaited promise to take care of her Claire, Zorba did n’t express himself and asked the women of his harem to go to the countryside with flowers in their hair. Taking care of a virgin

Artin didn’t know it, but it was Zorba’s influence that kept his harem alive. It is because Zorba is the person who takes care of the daunting political movement with Agnes alone.

“And, I’ve already taken care of what you want to ask for.”
“Yes?”
“The rumors about Artin. They just pretended that Heavenly Demon-nim made a strange request. Didn’t it be easy to catch rumors because the Heavenly Demon-nim did all sorts of outlandish eccentricities?”

As Zorba said, she sipped her tea while sitting across from Agnes. It seemed that this man, Zorba Felkas, could be seen in the way he talked about clean-up that no one else would have even thought of, as if he were cleaning a room.

One of the most capable men in the academy. A man rumored to be running half of the academy with his hands and feet. If the OBs of the student council, including Agnes and Marianne, graduate, he is the most likely man to become the next student president. And Artine’s biggest helper.

Agnes smiled in relief at the fact that such a man would help her or Artin without any black feelings or cost.

“…Thanks. I have no idea how to solve this problem at all.”
“Thankfully, I didn’t do it for the princess, but for Artin. It’s your older brother’s duty to take care of your younger brother, right? Artyn is finally living free, and we can’t let anyone get in the way.”
“Anyway, it would have been nice if Artin had refused such a strange request…”

This departure ceremony will be seen by many VIPs. Artin himself should have known that fact better than anyone else. And you probably know that the ones that receive the most mention and attention at this departure ceremony are Chunma, Cayenne, and Artin.

The Heavenly Demon is a living legend that everyone longs for if it is a warrior and reveres it even if it is not a warrior. And the warrior, Cayenne, and his companion, Artin, are disciples of the Heavenly Demon.

So, Artin had to show his best side on the spot…

“Am I angry, Princess? Because Artin looked so ugly?”
“…Not angry. I knew very well that Artin was such a person.”
“Hmm?”

Unicor’s stupid request, Artine, who insisted on accepting such a request, might seem like a pug, but Agnes didn’t think so.

“Because she was asked by a woman she was not very close to, she must have fought in the civil war of the Empire. That’s why, if your lover asks for it, he’ll listen.”
“Oh, is that the story from the previous episode that I only heard about?”

Agnes nodded his head at that.

The time when he and Artin met properly for the first time, called the 3rd round. At the time, Artine and Agnes, who were fighting against the massive invasion of the Demon King’s army, were never close friends.

A comrade I met on the battlefield just a few times, a rising war hero. He was a man called the Displeased Prophet.

“In that episode, my brother died at the hands of the demon king’s army and his father was corrupted by the demon king’s servants.

The Demon King did not miss that gap. All the corps commanders and their subordinates came forward to knock on the borders of the Imperial Army, support the rebels, and start attacking the Empire from inside and outside.

In the greatest crisis of the empire, there was nothing Agnes could do at that time. She was called the Princess Knight, and she, who commanded the battlefield, was reduced to a helpless woman protected by her warriors and their companions her.

“I still remember what Artin said then. It’s something I still don’t understand.”
“Hmm? What did you say?”
“So, obviously… “

– “Don’t cry, Agnes. Because I don’t want to see my favorite girl cry.”

“..My favorite?”
“Usually, it’s a word attached to a character that appears in a creative work. I mean she is my favorite character.”
“No, I know that… “

Isn’t that something you would say to a real woman?

Zorba, who was about to utter such words, saw Agnes’ expression of her and shut his mouth of her.

“Maybe Artin had a crush on me from then on. It’s such a romantic story that before I knew Artin… Artin loved me all the time.”

Zorba, who had a deep relationship with her women her, knew. In the mood, she said, there’s nothing as stupid as smashing a woman’s dreams. So she decided to just chide her in without any denial.

“That’s so romantic.”
“Yes? So Artine came to me again. For me who can’t remember everything, so actively…”
“Is that why the princess is so generous to Artin? Fighting against the Empire for you and coming to you who lost your memory?”

When Zorba asked with a puzzled expression, Agnes put on a worried expression for a moment.

However, he shook his head lightly.

“No, it’s just that I love Artyn, and Artin loves me. He is so violent that he knows that not even death can separate us.”
“Something romantic.”
“Right, romantic, like the male and female protagonists in novels.”

Looking at Agnes with a dreamy expression on her face her, Zorba felt strange.

Would the women of her own harem love her like that? If not, how much do you have to give to be loved like that?

‘I’m a little envious.’

Thinking so, she began to feel envious of Artin, who had been struggling to embrace her lover who was beyond her ability her. A relationship like that wouldn’t be possible to buy even if you paid a thousand gold.

“Come to think of it, did Artin say he wanted to be alone today and that he wanted a solitary room?”
“Yes? Right. He said he wanted to take a break and have some alone time before the battle…”
“How about visiting? Artin might be lonely.”
“Cha, to find him… Artin said he wanted to be alone? But being rude is…”

At that, Zorba shook her head.

“Isn’t it a battle with the Demon King’s army? Of course Artin must be nervous too. So she thinks all the more that her beloved lover should be by her side her. Just like he was with you.”
“…”

Agnes’ body her trembled. I don’t know if that statement is true.
But Agnes missed Artine at this moment. I wanted to hug Artyn with all my might, so that when we met, his bones would be crushed.
If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be okay if I used that as an excuse to visit him? Artin isn’t the kind of person to be angry with something like that.

“Go ahead, knock first when you come in next time. I also have a thing called privacy.”
“… Thank you, Zorba Pelkas.”

Agnes got up and left the room without taking any further reply. Zorba laughed out loud at the same reckless behavior as when she first entered the room.

‘I had no intention of even helping with the love story.’

Well, this is what my brother does. Thinking, Zorba headed back to her window.

The calm night sea was peaceful and calm. Until a storm arrives on this sea, you may enjoy that peace.
