Episode 89

It’s now clear that everything I’ve been through in the forest is not a dream, but a reality.
Then it was also true that the enchanted cloth in that luggage bag in the forest gathered countless monsters.
‘It’s just a guess yet.’
However, in the context, it must have been the enchanted cloth. He would be like that because no matter how much I looked at, it was difficult to doubt other things in that luggage bag.
Think about it. Did the compass call the monsters? Or a maid’s uniform? Or a fake I.D.?
‘Does that make sense?’
The enchanted cloth makes the most sense. This was the only thing that was most plausible.
I brought my luggage bag and opened it.
A piece of light blue fabric with a distinct presence between the odds and ends has complicated the mood.
It would be nice if I could check it.
It’s a simple way to check. I can take the enchanted cloth to the place where there are a few monsters.
‘But it’s easier said than done, the monster is not a local dog, and that time was the first time I’ve seen the monster in this life.’
Monsters were rare creatures that ordinary people would never see in their lifetime.
Except, of course, those who live in the South.
Because of the monster attack there, they have to see the monster every few years, even if they don’t want to.
Come to think of it, the southern forest was called the monster’s nest instead of its original name because no one knew how many monsters there were.
‘If I go there and check it out, I’ll find out for sure.”
Of course, it’s too far and too dangerous to try in reality.
If I’d rather go than the Southern Forest, the Northern Forest where I’ve recently encountered a monster…….
‘Hold on’
I hesitated to think that far.
The Southern Forest?
“I feel like I’m forgetting something……the monster subjugation!’
I remembered. I bounced off my luggage bag and stood up from my seat.
Ash, what the hell did you do with the subjugation?
Considering the distance from here to the south, it could never have been finished already.
‘Don’t tell me, he just threw it away……….’
I was embarrassed by the late realization and hurried out of bed.
Then I opened the door to go to Ash, and there was an unexpected face in the hallway.
“Lady.”
I took a slight pause in the opponent’s calm mid-low voice and opened my mouth.
“……Sir.”
The subtle discomfort made my expression dimmed.
“Where are you going?”
I shut the door behind my back with my red hands, as if I had suddenly lost my place to go.
Then I answered with a vague stare somewhere in the air, not to Sir Davery.
“It’s… it’s Ash.”
It was not easy for me to look straight at Sir Davery.
The reason is not different.
‘Because I’m guilty………’
Before I left the mansion, I had asked Sir Davery to be taken away and sent him away on a fake errand.
Then this was the first time we faced each other properly. I saw him last night, but it was so crowded and just for a short moment.
If you are not tormented and embarrassed by remorse in this situation, I couldn’t be called human. The guilt in my heart was beating me with great excitement.
‘Let’s avoid him slowly.’
I wondered if he knew that I was eagerly avoiding his eyes with a sinner’s heart.
“Okay, then I’ll take you there.”
“You don’t have to.”
I exclaimed in astonishment.
My voice rose unknowingly at the thought of walking down the hall with this torturous and agonizing heartache. Oh, but did I say it too loud? I added as an excuse.
“So I mean, well, I don’t want to bother you.”
“It doesn’t bother me much.”
“No, I’m bothering you. You can’t bother doing something you don’t have to do.”
“What do you mean something I don’t have to do?”
I could feel Sir Davery’s gaze while I was avoiding him while staring at me – corrected my words.
“This is my job. Isn’t that right? To assist you anytime, anywhere.”
“……”
“Even though I was abandoned at an important moment because of a lack of sincerity.”
‘Oh! No!’
An inner scream broke out at Sir Davery’s last words. I held my hand forward and stirred it hurriedly.
“No! It wasn’t a lack of sincerity, it was rather too much…I mean, since you’re working so hard… It’s…….”
The gibberish that I don’t know what I’m saying was finally put together in one word.
“… I’m sorry.”
Yeah, there was something else he wanted to say to me. I connected in a husky voice.
“It’s my fault.”
“I didn’t mean to hear your apology.”
‘Lies.’
Eventually, you were abandoned or something like that. But I swallowed the rebuttal because I was in a position where I did nothing well.
Sir Davery said as if he had read my mind.
“I’m telling you, I don’t think you did anything wrong to me.”
“……”
“Sweet gentle cooking boy was in a place that was harder to find than I thought, and the meringue cookies I had obtained had to be shocked and grieved only to realize that I was deceived, but I don’t think my lady is responsible for anything.”
“I’d rather if you swear openly.”
I thought I’d be much more comfortable.
Sir Davery heard my honest voice and soon gave me an airy laugh.
“Just kidding. I’m really fine. So you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
“……..”
“I’ll just stand here and take you to the place where you were going, and keep doing my job. By the way, is your ankle okay?”
Sir Davery said he would help if walking was inconvenient. I glanced down at my right ankle, tightly bandaged, and shook my head.
“If I walk slowly, there’s no problem.”
“Then I’ll keep the pace slowly.”
“…… thank you. But Sir.”
Sir Davery tried to take the lead and turned this way. I hesitated and brought up the words.
“Are you not angry?”
“Do I have to be angry?”
“No, it’s…… in a way that I deceived you…It’s… it’s.”
I tried hard to find the right word, but it eventually popped out.
Sir Davery, the man I was fooled, laughed his head off.
“It’s common in every epic story that a rich lady ostracizes a guard to move freely. I understand if you think like that. Frankly speaking, I think we’re not enough of the ones who are just being left out.”
“Don’t say that. Because I feel more guilty.”
“I didn’t mean that. The point is that I don’t want to blame you. Please think so.”
I could tell it was true. I listened to Sir Davery’s calm voice, which stuck in my ear, and then took my step off my seat.
Then I said,
“Sir Davery……It’s your heart is bigger than it looks.”
I think it would be better if I could take out ‘than it looks’.
“This is hard, this is the first time I’ve seen you become honest like this. ”
“I’ll change it. I think I hated you a little, my lady.”
My steps became light. After exchanging puns, as usual, I felt a lot of awkwardness in my guiltiness.
How long did we walk so light but slow? Sir Davery suddenly took the lead.
“But next time….”
“……?”
“If a similar situation comes again, I’d like you to take me with you then. I’ll follow you.”
It won’t happen again, a similar situation. I already promised I won’t do that again by beating Bessy’s and my fingers twice.
But instead of bringing it up, I put another question in my mouth.
Because, Sir Dover’s words,’I will follow,’ felt strange.
“Sir Davery is Ash’s man.”
“Yes.”
“But you’re going to follow me? Even if I left Ash and ran away?”
Of course, that won’t happen even if I die and go back to life again.
“Yes.”
“…….”
“After speaking, it’s a little weird for me to say.”
“You know that, but why do you still say it?”
“I know. Well, I’ve been with you for a while, and now you seem to like my master. I didn’t know I was such a weak-minded person.”
“What is it?”
There was a silly laugh. It sounded funnier because I knew it was nonsense.
Sir Davery’s loyalty to Ash was extraordinary. Everyone in the mansion knew it. Of course, me too.
If Ash asks him to die, then he will follow his will to jump in front of him and cut himself with his own sword.
I answered lightly in a manner that dealt with the joke.
“Well, that’s good. I’ve been walking around with Sir Davery all the time, and you’re like a man of my own.”
“…..”
“If this happens again, then I’ll take you without leaving you out. What do you say, it’s an honour, right?”
Sir Davery had no answer. The silence that had fallen in a single moment seemed unusually quiet.
What is this? I got the rhythm right, so it’s embarrassing.
The moment I thought so, the answer came back.
“Yes, it’s an honour. From the bottom of my heart.”
At this time Sir Davery was walking half a step ahead of me.
So I couldn’t see his face from my position.
What kind of facial expression will he have? I suddenly heard such a question, but I was suffering from a subtle internal conflict because it didn’t seem to be enough to check it out.
Meanwhile, Sir Davery changed the subject.
“By the way, I’m glad you’re walking smoothly.”
