Raised in Dungeon



Chapter 210

"Huh, even though it's Miss Rachel's request, I shouldn't have to risk my life like this."

I was one of the soldiers working in the Boldenville residence, one of those weaklings who didn't have the courage to challenge the dungeon.

I had tried registering and entering to explore the dungeon, but my limit was only up to the first floor. Going down to the second floor, I was already almost killed by the rage wolf's attack. With nothing else to do, I was introduced by one of the Boldenville residence's soldier recruiters. And now I'm a soldier there.

People say being a soldier is dangerous, but as long as I've been working with Lord Reynold, we haven't had any attacks. Even if there are, they're just ordinary thieves.

Lord Reynold is a cautious man, so he always brings 50 to 100 soldiers when he leaves the territory. With such numbers, bandits wouldn't even dare to approach us.

In essence, being a soldier at the Boldenville residence was very advantageous. You wouldn't be exposed to danger, nor would you have to work much, but you could still receive weekly money.

One of the joys of being a soldier was that I could travel to any city to escort Lord Reynold. Normally we commoners wouldn't be able to travel the city due to danger and the need for a lot of money, but since I'm a soldier, I can travel for free.

But lately, Lord Reynold has not been meeting with the outer nobility.

The reasons are threefold.

One, is the Throne War. The fight for the crown had bred an aura of unease among the heads of prominent families, as each of them had already made their choice on who they believed should ascend to the throne. With their preferences firmly established, they found it arduous to engage with other noble households that held different opinions. Yet, amidst the tumult, Earl Boldenville stood as a beacon of impartiality. As one of the revered high nobles, he maintained a neutral stance, navigating the delicate balance that had come to define this tumultuous affair.

Two, the birth of the successor of the Boldenville family. Lady Ayde successfully gave birth to a healthy boy, as Lord Reynold's wished. Now Lord Reynold spends a lot of time with his son so that he can become a good successor to the family.

Three, the Boldenville family is now in mourning because of Lady Felicia's heroic actions; she experienced a long sleep that was said to have been asleep for three years

And now...

Three years have passed...

I don't know where Miss Rachel found out, but Lady Felicia had reportedly had a reaction to waking up.

And right after Lord Reynold and Lady Ayde heard that Lord Reynold paid a visit to the palace. I don't know the relationship; perhaps he was ordered to report it directly to the royal party.

On his trip to the kingdom, I didn't go along.

The reason was

"Bedell, while Lord Reynold away, please fetch Allen at Barkaley for me," Miss Rachel said that to me.

Allen, the black-haired boy who was Lady Felicia's knight.

Knights were mostly nobles and commoners who had reached the Palladium level above. Especially for the Earl, there was no way they would take a commoner as a knight. But it seemed that the boy was Lady Felicia's favorite. There were too many rumors around saying that Allen and Felicia were already engaged because their closeness was no longer a relationship between knight and master.

Actually, we had a bandit attack once during our journey to the kingdom to celebrate the Whitmoon Festival and Prince Francis' birthday. At that time, the number of bandits matched that of our own troops, indicating a formidable adversary. Fear gripped my heart as I contemplated the danger that lay before me. I really thought that my life was in trouble.

But...

Almost all the bandits were defeated by that black-haired kid, Allen.

The sight of him methodically slitting the bandits' throats one by one filled us with an overwhelming sense of terror. It was hard to fathom that someone so young could possess such a level of expertise, far surpassing even of lazy soldiers like us. We had become accustomed to a life of safety and comfort, untouched by the world's harsh realities. However, in that moment, it was clear that this child possessed an unmatched skill, a prowess that surpassed our own.

Without his swift intervention, many of us would undoubtedly have met our demise, and I too would likely have fallen victim to the merciless bandits.

Allen proved to be the unexpected hero who defeated nearly all of the bandits, saving our lives from imminent peril. We did thank him a little, but none of us could say it to that child.

Everyone was afraid of him. We often met him in the training room. But if you engaged him in conversation, he would prepare his hand to draw his knife, and then he would look at you as if he could kill you at any moment.

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm I'm afraid of him too,

And now I was told to find the boy in Barkaley territory and bring him back to Boldenville.

"Bedell, please; Lady will wake up soon. Please find Allen in the Barkaley area; I'll give you enough money!"

I really wanted to refuse her, but how could I refuse her when she begged me so desperately?

Every soldier here likes Miss Rachel, and so do I. Why not? Miss Rachel is a commoner who has the behavior of a noble. As the head maid, Rachel must look beautiful next to her master. So unlike the other maids, Rachel uses the same grooming as the nobles. If Lady Felicia is an unattainable flower, then Rachel is a beautiful flower that you can attain.

But even if she begs me, I won't comply with her request at the cost of my life.

That's how it should be...

"AAAARGH! WHY CAN'T I REFUSE!"

I always do; I'm too weak to refuse people's requests. Especially my crush's request, how could I refuse her when she made that face!

This is a mission without Lord Reynold's concern. Because I've gone this far, I must take Allen back. In the end, Lord Reynold will kill me if he knows.
