41 – 41. Owl House (2)

Margot smiled at Irina’s question.

And he shrugged his shoulders slyly, as if enjoying her gaze.

“We’re not just close friends. “We even shared a room together.”

The second princess’s smile even disappeared when she heard that she even had her own room.

She looked at me with a white face.

I felt his gaze and answered that it was no big deal.

“It’s about when I was five years old. “At that time, regardless of gender, we all grew up in the same room.”

However, Irina was still cold.

Looking at her like that, Margo grinned.

“By the way, Bale, you guy, you’ve achieved your dream?”

“dream… ?”

The witch put her hand on my shoulder.

Then, they looked at Irina together and spoke quietly.

“Yes, you said that if you become a knight, you will definitely marry a rich girl and live a comfortable life.”

I pinched Margo’s lips with my finger.

Then the witch panicked and grabbed my hand urgently.

“I’m sorry, miss. This guy told a story 10 years ago… .”

I quickly apologized to the princess.

However, unexpectedly, Irina’s expression brightened.

“No, Bale also had cute times like that, right?”

She giggled again, shyly covering her lips with her hand.

Margo watched this with strange eyes.

Then I called over to the large employee who was looking at the counter.

“Well, it’s been a while since I came to the store, so should I drink something? Would you like a beer?”

I was disgusted by the word beer.

“What kind of beer is this? “We didn’t come here to have fun.”

“Ah, it’s about blood trace investigation. I can do it 100 times even if I drink 2 bottles of whiskey.”

Margo said it was okay and waved her hand.

Then, seeing my uncomfortable expression, he raised his eyebrows.

“Oh right. “You really can’t drink, right?”

Irina looked surprised at those words.

Encouraged by the princess’s reaction, Margo begins to tease me even more.

“Even though he looks like a swallow, he can’t even drink alcohol. “At the coming-of-age ceremony, I could barely afford two glasses of rum.”

“Rum is strong, beer doesn’t get you as drunk.”

When I said this angrily, Margo countered by saying that she had been waiting for me to say that.

“Okay, so let’s just have one beer.”

The two-tailed witch then looked at Irina.

She thought for a moment when she saw the neat face and pale skin visible through the robe.

“I guess you’re bad at drinking too?”

Margo tries to cross the line.

I cleared my throat to stop the witch from targeting the princess.

but… .

“No, I know how to drink.”

Irina stared straight at Margot with a stern expression.

And he asked for a drink too.

“miss… .”

I told her with a troubled expression.

However, the princess did not give up her will, like a noble saint who had decided to save her country.

“Veil, it’s been half a year since I had my coming-of-age ceremony. “You don’t have to treat me like a child.”

Margot smiled, saying that she liked her strong appearance.

“Good good-. “Bring three glasses of herbal beer here-.”

The witch commanded in a gruff tone, as if imitating the lady.

Then the waiting mercenary brought three huge beer glasses.

The cup was so big that it was almost like a bucket.

“Ha, one drink…” ?”

The princess’s emerald eyes sparkle at that sight.

I also sighed and closed my eyes tightly.

“A drink here is almost like a bucket. That’s why I refused… .”

“Gwae, it’s okay. “Because I drink well!”

Irina, who didn’t want to lose to my lament, grabbed the cold beer glass in front of her with both hands.

And then he slowly drags it in front of him.

Owl House beer with fresh cream foam rising beautifully.

Herbs filled with mana were floating on top of the bubbles.

“There are herbs in the beer?”

“Herbs from the Cornell area play a role in maintaining carbonation. Of course, the alcohol content goes up ‘a little’, but-.”

Margot took a gulp of beer and took a deep breath.

Thanks to this, her sharp cat-like fangs flashed.

“It might be a bit difficult for people who grew up beautifully like you, because that’s the way of rough people ‘like us’.”

Is it because alcohol entered the body?

Margo, who was in a good mood, hugged me by the shoulder and emphasized our origins.

‘Like us.’

At those words, Irina pursed her pink lips.

And soon… .

He said, grabbing the spoon next to him.

“No, I grew up a bit harshly for someone I was born with.”

The princess slammed her spoon into the beer glass.

Then, he stirred the deeply soaked manachos and made the drink stronger.

‘Where did you learn that… ?’

Afterwards, Irina held the heavy beer glass and drank it down with all her might.

Deep enough to arch her soft neck.

“sulfur… “No, miss!”

My eyes widened and I tried to stop her.

Then Margot gently blocked my arm and whispered.

“Hey, hey. “Leave it alone.”

When I looked down at Margo with serious eyes, she smiled sweetly.

“Looking at it, it looks like we haven’t made any progress yet. Let me help you.”

Her black eyes sparkle.

Margot, who had long pupils like a cat, shook her head to avoid my gaze.

“Ugh… .”

Soon the princess put down her half-drank beer.

And then he carefully wiped his foamy lips with his sleeve.

“Well, it’s not that harsh, is it? There’s nothing special about back alley drinking.”

The princess answered in a calm voice.

However, as I served her, I was able to quickly notice.

Irina’s face started to turn slightly pink.

“Hey, isn’t that great? “Maybe we would be a better fit than a prestigious family.”

Originally, beer was considered a cheap drink among nobles.

Nevertheless, Margo raised the corners of her mouth at the sight of the princess drinking without prejudice.

“Can’t we just talk about clues now?”

I got to the point, wondering what kind of disrespect Margot would commit to Irina.

Then the owner of the Owl House nodded as if he was satisfied with the princess’s reaction.

“Yes – it must be quite urgent for a rich girl to be this active.”

Margo jumped up from her chair.

Then he pointed to the dark back door behind the counter.

“Follow me, Veil.”

“I want to go with you.”

Irina struggled to get up when she saw me following her.

However, Margo shook her head, saying that she could not give in this time.

“If an ordinary person who can’t handle mana comes in, they might get hurt.”

The witch tapped my waist and led me.

Seeing that, I pushed him forward, telling him not to climb up.

“I’ll be back soon, so please wait a moment.”

I briefly turned my head and looked at Irina.

She clenched both hands tightly.

I pursed my lips as I watched us moving away.

Margot carefully closed the door.

Then, he flashed his animal-like pointed eyes and revealed his true colors.

“Now, who offended our mad dog?”

She took out the wooden wand she had kept in her bosom.

An ash wand that only formal witches can use.

The moment she lightly stirred in the air.

The open windows began to close all at once.

And the curtains automatically went down, making the inside of the witch’s room dark.

Eventually, only the brazier where the pot is placed is ignited.

I handed over the vial containing the female prosecutor’s blood stains.

The witch took it and leisurely approached the pot.

The girl who was full of fun a little while ago has long since disappeared.

Margo, transformed into a creepy shaman, opened the glass bottle with her skillful hands.

He carefully placed the blood drop on the back of his hand and observed it intently.

“Um, you’re a girl?”

She knew the gender just by looking at the shape of the blood drop.

He recited the information he had discovered, as if it was quite interesting.

“He has red hair and is 168 cm tall. My weight is 55… .”

“There’s no need for that, just show me what you look like.”

“It’s not fun.”

Margo pouted her lips.

From noble mtl dot com

Afterwards, he grunted and dropped a drop of blood into the huge cauldron.

The transparent water surface gradually shakes.

Soon, the face of a woman, the owner of the blood drops, began to appear on the surface of the water.

“oh… .”

“What is coming?”

“Is it pretty? “Do you know someone?”

Long red hair and scarlet eyes.

And even the red uniform that clings to the body.

“I know your face. “Because I’m a candidate for the next Knight Commander.”

The name is Echina Flamer.

She is the daughter of the Southern Grand Duke of the Red Flame Knights who supports the crown prince.

“Why did you fight with such an amazing person… ?”

Margo’s eyebrows furrow at the appearance of the big man.

“It’s long.”

I looked around, indifferently looking down at the beautiful woman reflected in the water.

It would take ages to explain this damn palace secret struggle.

He seems to be around my age, but I already recognized him when he was dealing with Sword Aura.

He will probably become a perfect knight commander five years after the purge takes place.

“I guess it has something to do with the girl outside?”

Margot, like a witch, was quick-witted.

She approached me and looked up with worried eyes.

“Who on earth is that young lady?”

“I can’t tell you that much.”

When I withheld the information, Margo pursed her lips as if she was upset.

“Well, from the looks of it, she must be the daughter of a really great family… .”

Margot whined and put the potion box down in front of me.

And while choosing a potion to give me, he spoke in a low voice.

“It’s good to succeed, but don’t risk your life.”

“what?”

“just… “If you die, it’s of no use.”

“don’t worry. “Because I will never die in vain.”

I chuckled and stroked the little witch’s head.

Then Margot avoided my gaze and muttered softly.

“If it’s okay, you can live here like before… .”

I lowered my head to listen to her again.

“what?”

“no.”

The witch said not to worry and passed by my collar like a cat.

Then he changed the topic by putting a glass bottle containing a potion in the basket.

“So what are you going to do about that female prosecutor? Are you going to kill me?”

As if responding to this, I stood up.

And as he opened the tightly closed door, he spoke firmly.

“You can’t kill the Archduke’s daughter.”

I looked at the store visible through the gap in the door.

At one corner of the table, there was a princess sitting with her robe down and a sullen expression on her face.

“I will catch it before the crown prince.”

Before she knew it, her face had opened up.

She straightened up when she saw me coming out with Margot.

however… Something is strange.

A swaying body.

She staggered towards me and put her head on my chest.

“you… .”

And he asked in a voice I had never heard before.

“How dare you leave this body alone…” “Do you really want to die?”

Margot covered her lips with her hand as her voice mixed with a nasal voice.

And he moved his eyebrows while looking at me.

“oh.”

I closed my eyes tightly at the sight of the two tiny women.

‘As expected, I had to come alone… .’
