How to Live as a Wandering Knight
Chapter 119.2: ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฌ๐ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ (2)Hunting was almost over and on the way back, Caenerna rode next to Iselia. Iselia looked at Caenerna with a wary look in her eyes.
Even if she was not a member of Johanโs army, Caenerna was a wizard with an ominous charm that made her feel suspicious because she could not tell her identity.
โDo you have any thoughts?โ
โ. . .What do you mean?โ
โThe bad thing about wizards is that they canโt just stand by and watch stupid things happen. Iโm here to give you some advice. No need to be wary, so listen carefully.โ
Caenerna said with a smile, but Iselia seemed to be even more wary.
But after all, she was Johanโs advisor. She couldnโt not listen to her.
โ. . .Iโll listen.โ
โWhat do you think the knight of the Yeats family wants from you? You didnโt think it was an absurd idea that he fell in love with your appearance, did you?โ
Iseliaโs face turned red at Caenernaโs words.She also knew to some extent what the standard of beauty was among elves. She had to be of a decent height and thin, so she was the opposite of her.
โI-I know that much. Isnโt it necessary to have a stable partner to rule the countship?โ
โThatโs right. You must have been promised that your safety would be guaranteed if you cooperate. You look uneasy, but let me tell you one thing. That promise will be kept.โ
โ!โ
โYou look like a frightened little bird, but I understand how you feel. Itโs only natural to be afraid. But think about it calmly. Does that knight look like a man who would break his oath? Has he ever done anything that would make you think that?โ
Caenernaโs words were persuasive. Johan was a very conscientious and blameless man, except for his inherent fear.
Iselia smiled involuntarily, relieved to hear the words she wanted to hear.
โOf course, thatโs only if you cooperate properly.โ
โI am cooperating properly. I have not entertained any other thoughts.โ
Caenerna snorted.
โThatโs not cooperation. Is it cooperation to sit there like a wooden doll? If you go hunting, you should stick to his side and show it to others. The same goes for the castle. You should stick to him in front of the servants and spread rumors, but if youโre so scared and stay in the corner, what kind of rumors will spread instead? If you want the other person to keep his promise, donโt make him angry. Acting counts. Everyone has their limits of patience.โ
Iseliaโs face turned pale at Caenernaโs words.
โDo you know why the Emperor tried to put a necklace on his lover?โ
โBecause the other person committed adultery, isnโt it?โ
โNo. Itโs because he couldnโt give what the other person wanted. If you were still in love, how could you have dared to put on the necklace?โ
Caenerna tapped Iseliaโs head and said.
โIf you want to live, think about it. If youโre going to say itโs impossible because youโre a knight, you might as well just die.โ
Caenerna galloped forward. Suetlg asked curiously.
โWhat did you say to her like that?โ
โA little wise advice. I think Iโm too lenient.โ
โ. . .Donโt tell me about curses or strange secrets. Bad rumors are already starting to spread.โ
Suetlgโs words were true. The reason for the bad rumors was mainly because of the priests.
The priests who were torn apart because of Johan were angry and chewed and scratched Iselia.
If you only listened to their words, it seemed like Iselia was born with the bloodline of a succubus who could enchant people with her eyes.
Of course, these rumors were not very effective, unlike Suetlgโs worries.
If it were a stranger, it would be unknown, but Iselia was a person who had been in the fiefdom for quite a while.
People also had a rough idea of what kind of aristocrat Iselia was.
Priests fumed that it was a sin of lust to seek each other on Saturdays or Sundays. People, however, had a knack for picking and choosing what to hear from priests.
As a result, rumors spread in a different way.

The church sent a long letter. The letter contained similar content to what the priests felt. They couldnโt refuse, but they would like to think about it again. . .
If you look at it, you might think the bishops are ex-lovers.
Johan smiled and passed it on. The churchโs actions were as expected.
Once the preparations were finished, the procedure proceeded quickly. The priests swallowed their tears and posted a notice in front of the temple, and prepared a festival for the wedding for the people around them.
Before the marriage, there were often sharp negotiations over various rights and property contracts, but this was not the case. In fact, Johan was going to get it all.
The marriage was basically concluded with the bishop blessing inside the temple. There was a reason for saying โbasicallyโ. There are more things to do after getting married as a feudal lord.
He had to provide a banquet for those who gathered and praise his vassals.
โRecord those who didnโt come.โ
Now that he had also acquired the fiefdom, he needed to squeeze the vassals who had been standing still while advancing.
He also needed to prepare for the cost of the wedding festival and military funds. . .
The best thing at this time was a clueless guy. A guy who doesnโt know that his reasons are piling up and just stands still.
โSir. Sir. Now, you have to stop and go and unite before God.โ
โIt doesnโt sound strange even if you express it in a noble way.โ
โWhat did you say?โ
โNo. Itโs nothing.โ
The conclusion of this ritual was the union performed while the priest and attendants waited outside. This marked its complete end.
From Johanโs perspective, he wondered, โ๐๐ฐ ๐ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ด๐ฆ๐น๐ถ๐ข๐ญ ๐ง๐ถ๐ฏ๐ค๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ด ๐ธ๐ข๐บ?โ but he had no choice. It was better to adhere to the custom if possible.
โYou seem to have exerted too much strength. It would be better to relax your body a bit.โ
โIโm. . . Iโm relaxing. My dear.โ
โYouโre still tense. It will hurt if you donโt relax more.โ
Iselia nodded her head and took deep breaths repeatedly. Johan, after waiting, clicked his tongue and said,
โEnough. Iโll make you relax. Just stay still.โ
โWai. . . Wait. . . Wait a moment! My dear! Just a moment!!โ
Not long after, a voice began to emanate from inside, weeping with exhaustion from pleasure and screaming, with only one personโs voice audible. The priests from the order gritted their teeth and grumbled quietly.
โSuch a lewd and vulgar demoness. . .โ
โShh. Be quiet. Itโs disrespectful.โ

โCongratulations, Your Excellency!โ
The republic envoy greeted Johan with a happy face. They gave generous gifts to the wedding. It was a natural investment considering Johanโs relationship.
How pleasant it would be to have a reliable ally in the southern part of the peninsula.
โHave you prepared the declaration to send to the Empire?โ
โI am preparing it now.โ
As the count of Coolia, Johan was planning to send a declaration to the Emperor.
It was filled with well-packaged diplomatic rhetoric, but essentially it was close to โ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต ๐ด๐ฉ๐ช๐ต.โ It meant he would stop being a vassal.
โI have good news and bad news. What would you like to hear first?โ
โLetโs hear the bad news first.โ
โMarquis Crucho landed on his fiefdom by crossing the sea.โ
โ!โ
Johanโs face hardened. He returned even though the situation in the Empire was dire. Was he so impatient with the mercenariesโ looting?
โWhat is the scale?โ
โIt is estimated to be between 3,000 and 4,000. There are about 500 cavalry and at least 1,000 heavy infantry, I hear.โ
โI see. What is the good news?โ
โMarquis Crucho was defeated as soon as he landed. He is said to have escaped with his life by the skin of his teeth.โ
โ. . .Whose words are they?โ
