65. Silver Wolf (4)

Audience pouring in.

I left the crowd with Irina.

Is it because I bumped into many people?

I could feel the sound of her heart pounding through her arms that were touching hers.

“….”

Even though the distance between her has widened, she still has her arms crossed.

And the soft feel of the knit on my arms.

Then I cleared my voice and spoke.

“Everything is out.”

“Huh? Huh… , When did it all come out?”

From noble mtl dot com

2 The princess twitched her body like a wild animal.

Then, she raised her head from her lowered position and looked at her surroundings.

People who took a wide step back.

They were glancing at Irina in her casual clothes.

“Could it be that my identity was discovered?”

Irina whispered to me in an urgent voice.

“I don’t think so.”

At this, I firmly shook her head.

Most people looking at the second princess were men.

These guys are seeing Irina for the first time because she usually wears a recognition-lowering robe.

They looked at her in fascination, with her clothes that showed off her figure and her beautiful silver hair.

Irina tried to control her voice and looked away from them.

Then she saw me and her arms still crossed, and her eyes widened.

“I can breathe a little easier now. Yes?”

She slowly uncrossed her arms.

And then we touched our arms, which had become moist due to each other’s body temperature.

“Yes, theater definitely doesn’t suit my taste.”

“Next time, should we invite the actors directly to the mansion?”

It certainly seems like the financial situation has improved a lot these days.

I was amazed to see her growing further and raised the corners of my mouth.

“Yes, that’s right. “I’m looking forward to it too.”

Satisfied with the words that she would look forward to it, the princess nodded her head.

She then placed her hand on her chest to steady her heartbeat, which had not yet subsided.

But.

Her heartbeat was still pounding.

“Uh… ? My Rosario….”

Because her mother’s keepsake that she cherished has disappeared.

The shy expression has long since disappeared.

She began to look around as calmly as possible.

The same goes for me too.

She looked around her street, focusing her eyes on Mana.

“Her necklace string may have broken while being swept away by the crowd.”

We waited until all the audience disappeared.

But even after that, nothing could be found on the floor.

“Did you lose it in the theater?”

Irina wondered if she should go back inside.

In the meantime, I watched closely the people around me, not the streets.

Then suddenly.

A back alley far from the theater caught my eye.

A miserable boy heading through a shady, narrow gap.

A subtle wave of mana felt in the boy’s pocket.

It was a phenomenon that appeared when the jewels and mana embedded in the Rosario reacted.

“Irina.”

The second princess was about to enter the theater.

She looked at me with a sad expression.

“Did you find it?”

“Yes, please follow me. “It appears to be a juvenile act of petty theft.”

I took the lead in the alley the child was heading towards.

Then, Irina asked with sparkling green eyes.

“If he is a young petty thief, is he perhaps an orphan? ?”

“That is highly likely.”

“Then let’s go this way. “I have a guess.”

Irina pinpointed the corner where the boy disappeared.

“It’s probably here.”

“It seems you know orphans well.”

“Yes, while supporting the monastery, I saw the path that children often walked on.”

Irina led me into the dark shadows.

Then, she explained why she supports her orphans.

“There is additional punishment for those who harass children in my territory.”

“I heard it so well. “It was a good rule made by the Second Empress.”

“Yes. However, there are people who abuse that rule.”

Irina sighed deeply.

“They are intentionally causing children to commit petty theft or blackmail.”

“That…” .”

I furrowed my eyebrows and Irina nodded her head bitterly.

“Because things like that happened so often, the residents began to completely ignore the orphans. “She stopped paying attention at all.”

Soon, the princess reached a dead end.

Then she pointed to a fence that was just as tall as me.

“He probably went beyond here and went to the hideout.”

A princess with a mithril long sword at her waist.

She jumped and tried to peek over her fence.

However, it seemed impossible for her to climb over the fence alone.

“Bale, can you please look up for me?”

“It’s dangerous. Wouldn’t it be safer to turn around?”

I watched her in silence as she bounced around with all her petite stature.

Then, the princess shook her head resolutely.

“It will take a while to get back from here. “By then, she may have already passed Rosario off as stolen goods.”

Irina tapped her palms as if calculating.

Then, she looked around to see if there was anything she could stand on.

“I understand.”

She pulled up the sleeves of her shirt.

Then she leisurely approached her and looked down at Irina.

“….”

She always wore only loose-fitting dresses or loose blouses and skirts.

Is it because the princess was wearing tight-fitting leggings and a knitwear?

It seemed quite difficult to touch her body.

However, she doesn’t care.

She stretched out her arms towards me with a serious expression.

“Can you please lift me up?”

As if responding to her request, I approached her closely.

And then, Irina placed her hand on her thigh instead of her hand.

“Uh… ?”

Irina knew how to touch her arm.

Her face turned red at the feel of my hand wrapping around her thigh.

However, I also didn’t care.

Because this stance is the most efficient for throwing her opponent over her fence.

“Be, I’m asking you to raise the veil like this just for a moment…” !”

He placed one arm on her thigh and the other arm on her back.

I could feel the rough texture of the hand she placed on my back, but I didn’t pay any attention to it.

“Huh… !”

She just focused on getting her princess safe.

Irina tightened her body.

Then, when she got to the top of the fence, she hurriedly sat down.

“….”

She covered her face with both her hands.

She glanced down at me between her fingers, as if she couldn’t believe what had just happened.

I lightly jumped over the fence as if nothing had happened.

And then I gently sat down next to her.

“Are you okay? “Her face is red.”

She opens her eyes narrowly and glares at me.

She murmured quietly with her trembling lips.

“You’re all good, but sometimes you seem so clueless….”

“You mean notice?”

When I tilted her head to bring her to eye level, she turned her face away.

She muttered, her voice crawling.

“No….”

Irina rubbed her body, which had become sensitive due to the smooth feel of the knit.

Then, she looked down her fence to focus her tracking again.

“Shall I give it to you again this time?”

“No.”

She answers firmly.

After swallowing her saliva deeply, she jumped off herself.

Cheolkeong.

The princess’s mithril long sword on her waist swayed cheerfully.

I also jumped off the fence together.

We slowly wandered through the dark alleys together.

And soon….

「―――.」

I stopped at the sound of children’s voices coming from around the corner.

“Shh.”

Irina pressed her finger to her lips.

And she quietly stuck to the wall and overheard her.

“Did you bring it?”

“Yes, here.”

Both have voices that look like boys.

However, the person who asked if I brought it seemed a little older.

About a 10 year and 14 year age difference.

“Oh-Rosario?”

The child wearing a dull shirt handed her familiar necklace to the boy.

Then, she saw a man who carefully checked the condition of the jewelry.

“It’s not in very good condition – but it looks like the real thing, so I’ll give you 1 gold.”

He carelessly threw a faded gold coin from her pocket to the boy.

“Well, it’s only 1 gold… ? “How did I get this away!”

The child asked back in a puzzled voice.

“It was a scary-looking man and a very pretty-looking older sister. “It will definitely be more expensive!”

“Well, I don’t know about you. “It takes a lot of money and time to sell.”

The boy snorted at the child’s retort.

And then he proudly hung the rosary he had received around his neck.

“If you count all the costs, I have nothing left.”

After looking around for a while, he prepared to leave.

But, the child grabbed his arm.

“Then give it back. “I’ll sell it myself!”

I shouted in an urgent voice and pulled him.

“This is really… !”

A striking sound so strong that it can be heard from far away.

Along with the sound of the blow, the sound of someone falling was heard from around the corner.

“Am I like your friend because I sell for you?”

The 14-year-old boy approached the fallen child.

And he looked down with a cruel expression.

“Don’t be mistaken. “I took it back because I was a little quick.”

The guy raised his hand to give the kid another slap on the cheek.

And the moment when you are about to hit it.

The feeling of someone grabbing his wrist made him stop in his tracks.

“What…?” ? What kind of bastard… !”

A fearless man who will soon become an adult.

He raised his head and looked at someone grabbing him.

Then, his eyes widened.

Because the person who captured him was no one else, but a neat-looking silver-haired woman.

“You… Tobiji? “From the Sunbeam class at the orphanage.”

“How did you do that…?” .”

“How long? “I’ve been to your orphanage several times.”

Irina shot him a stern look.

“I heard you’ve been skipping school lately, so you’ve been acting like a fencer?”

She supported an orphanage and sent her children to school.

However, I heard that some kids are missing school and doing bad things. It seems to be this kid named Toby.

“What is school in my subject…?” .”

Toby indifferently slapped the princess’s arm.

And he spoke in a cocky tone.

“If she went anyway, she would be made fun of because she was an orphan… “If that’s the case, I’ll just make money.”

“If you want to make money, earn it by working hard. “You don’t resell what you stole.”

“You’re stealing, do you have any proof?”

Irina held out her palm. She

She And She Demands Rosario Back.

“That necklace is mine.”

“What, was it from you?”

From noble mtl dot com

Toby took out a cross from his pocket with a sour expression.

And then he roughly threw it into her palm.

“Take it. “I wouldn’t make any money if I sold it anyway.”

The moment I saw that.

I couldn’t bear it any longer and asked the boy.

“Why are you so rude to the person who helped you?”

The guy turns his head in response to my question.

He said with an expression that he was invincible as long as he was in this town.

“If you are a donor, you only donate, but you keep interfering with our lives.”

Toby put his hands in his pockets.

And then he looked down pitifully at Irina, who was supporting her fallen child.

“There is only one reason why rich women like that donate anyway. “It’s money laundering.”

Toby looks like he is mistaken that he is an adult.

He shrugged his shoulders and continued talking.

“The government takes a lot of tax money, so we pretend to donate it to the orphanage and come back later.”

This is the guy who boasts that other donors have always been like that.

He said, putting a sack full of stolen goods over his shoulder.

“If the head nun who donated it writes something, she gets angry and asks why she used it?”

I glanced down at the feet of the chattering guy.

The soles of his shoes were tattered as if they were old.

‘He’s quick on his feet.’

If you want to catch it without getting hurt, you will have to be careful.

“Okay, I’m going now. Next time, don’t interfere with what I do.”

The guy swaggered and turned around.

And he tried to leave his alley at a leisurely pace.

I quietly followed that guy.

And then hit his neck to paralyze him for a moment.

“Stop.”

I stopped my actions when I heard a cold voice coming from behind.

And, just as Toby turned his head cynically.

Baaa!!

His fist ended up in the guy’s face.

“Ugh… !!”

The pain I have experienced for the first time in my life.

The guy grabbed his cheek and shouted at the person who hit him.

“Ji, you just hit me… ? Is it because you don’t know what happens if you hit a child in this territory?”

Toby looked up with a look in his eyes that said it was a good decision.

‘Irina’ who hit him.

“Oh, I know. “Because it’s a rule my mother made.”

A dark shadow fell on the princess’s beautiful face.

She said, tightening her hair tied behind her back even more.

“It’s okay. “I’m going to abolish that rule today.”
