71. Drinking party under the moonlight (2)

“Is your left hand okay?”

“… … .”

After I let go of the grumbling Finden Eye, new faces came to me this time.

The sorcerer’s judge, Tyrin Ol Velocus, and the Royal Knight Commander, Gloria Grace.

The two were wearing civilian clothes, not the usual robes or armor, which was also the king’s consideration.

Because of this incident, not only the archmage, but I and I became opposed to each other, but in fact it was a misunderstanding, so if there is a goal of emotion, it means to solve it at a drinking party.

“Kuhm.”

That’s why Gloria is awkward, so she clears her throat but speaks clearly.

“I am the one who follows Your Majesty’s orders. With his sword, he can only move if he wills.”

“… … .”

“If Your Majesty issues the same order next time, I will silently obey. However… … .”

Watching the lengthy talk, Tyrin next to him let out a dejected smile. I sat there silently, looking up at her.

“I didn’t think His Majesty was wrong. sorry.”

Self-reproach that this would not have happened if he had noticed, and guilt for not noticing that there was a problem with the king as a sword.

I take a sip of my drink as I look at Gloria bowing her head to me.

“Does not matter.”

“… … .”

“You just did your part. I have no feelings about it, so don’t worry.”

Gloria slowly raised her head at my answer. Tyrn, who was next to him, laughed and said.

“Look. Aren’t you the type to care about that? It’s a big crowd.”

“Hmm, I also heard that you will become a member of the royal family in the future. i look forward to.”

Gloria asked for a handshake, but one hand was wrapped in a bandage and the other held a glass.

Thinking it was a mistake, Gloria tried to withdraw her hand, but I put the glass down and took my hand.

“Please take good care of me.”

Considering the progression of the story, she is not someone who can just pass by.

That’s why I was thinking of making a strong relationship first.

“Aren’t you two talking? It seems like they’ve become colleagues who will serve the same king anyway.”

“Um, then… … .”

“Do whatever you want.”

Gloria, who glanced at me slightly, nodded with a more comfortable face at my answer.

“Okay, I’ll take care of you.”

That was the end of the conversation between the two of them. We weren’t close enough to have a long conversation anyway.

People flocking around to see if the huge meat that was being grilled is slowly getting cooked.

I was still sipping a drink in the same spot. There was no sign of taking it.

“Are there any seats available?”

Then another man approached me. It was King Orpheus, who should be resting.

I tried to get up, but he gestured and sat down next to me.

“I want to drink too, but they told me to wait for stability.”

Orpheus opened and closed his hands as if empty. I needed a break right now because I was possessed by a demon.

He turned his gaze to the fire and grinned.

“Yes, you have overcome all three trials. congratulations I honestly never thought I could do it.”

“It’s only natural that the difficulty was high.”

“Kuk-kuk, that’s right. Even thinking about it, I can’t help but feel vicious.”

Defeat the Sorcerer’s Chief Tairin Ol Velochus.

Solved Eleanor Luden Griffin’s nightmare.

Finally, the mystery of the will of the previous king, which can be said to be the secret of the royal family, was solved.

“You will be rewarded well enough, but is it really all right?”

“… … .”

His gaze was already on mine. The emotions contained in it were worries and worries.

“It is going to be a very confusing time. You will receive ridicule, criticism, and even more than you think.”

“It’s not just me, it’s the kingdom as well.”

“Isn’t that the responsibility I have to shoulder?”

That was right.

It was just right, so I nodded my head in satisfaction without knowing it.

It was only natural for the royal family to receive criticism and criticism in relation to black magicians.

However, being the subject was me, which Orpheus did not like.

“Why don’t we move forward step by step while revising the law for warlocks?”

I shook my head when he asked if it would be better to get rid of my perception of them.

“It’s too late. It will be even more unacceptable.”

“Hmm.”

“Don’t worry.”

When I answered firmly, Orpheus gave a small nod and said he understood.

It was a part where I could feel his infinite trust in me.

“Oh.”

Orpheus claps incongruously and glances over.

“How old did you say you were?”

“Twenty-eight.”

“Um, that’s right.”

Orpheus, who nodded exaggeratedly, clears his throat and deliberately changes the subject.

“Well, did you often spend time here with my sister?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“I heard that you two spend time quite often, so you must be more intimate than usual, right?”

“… … .”

“… … Did you notice it?”

To Orpheus scratching the back of my head, I didn’t bother to answer and only wet my lips with alcohol.

He sighed and said with a pat on the shoulder.

“Think about it. Eleanor seemed to like you quite a bit, and I’d welcome you enough.”

“… … .”

“And at twenty-eight, isn’t it an age where it wouldn’t be strange to be married and have children?”

Taking my mouth off the glass, I replied slowly.

“I have a fiancee.”

“what?!”

Orpheus looked at me with a puzzled look on his face that he couldn’t have imagined.

“Shut up, I almost crossed the line. I’m sorry.”

Orpheus bit the horse because he was nervous.

Although he did not break off his engagement to Erica to make it easier to end his relationship with Gideon.

‘I have a use for it too.’

Being engaged to her is a good way to put an end to other people’s meddling.

‘Maybe going back to the academy would be enough.’

Certainly, if it was Erica, I think she would have found her original self-reliant self enough to bring a letter of breakup.

After that, I wouldn’t be able to use the shield called my fiancée, but I planned to use it a lot when I could use it anyway.

“I didn’t know there was a woman you were in love with.”

“It’s a family engagement.”

“So it is.”

The reaction that I knew would be something bothered me.

I see a lady-in-waiting running from far away. It seemed that he had come looking for King Orpheus.

“Okay, I heard you. I’ll just let you go.”

“I hope you have a restful night.”

“Yes, you too, drink in moderation. He is now the only warlock recognized by the kingdom. It is a precious body.”

The footsteps of King Orpheus, who tapped him on the shoulder, contained strength.

Through this incident, neither his mind collapsed nor his body taken over by demons.

Looking at the back of him who had definitely grown up, I hid the smile with a glass of wine.

“Deus! Come over and eat some!”

Darius calls out to me while holding the grilled meat and waving it in the air.

Deia also glanced at me and gestured, so I slowly got up and approached the two of them.

“Drink while eating snacks. Don’t stretch out drunk like in the mansion.”

I’ve heard quite a few stories about Deus walking around the mansion in a stupor in the past.

No matter how much alcohol he has tolerant to, he doesn’t even get drunk no matter how much he drinks.

“Ah, a hand.”

Deia, who handed me the meat, looked at my left hand and hesitated for a moment.

Then, slowly, he pushed the meat toward my mouth.

“I made it that way, so I take responsibility.”

“… … You may not eat.”

I didn’t feel like eating meat. It was a refreshing night, so I wanted to enjoy the alcohol alone.

“Are you going to embarrass me?”

Deia is annoyed and glaring at me. He had no choice but to sigh and accept the meat she gave him.

“Oh, oh!”

Darius, who was watching it from the side, looked at us with a moved expression.

Even though Deia and I looked rotten at the same time, he didn’t care and held out his glass.

“Ego! The closeness of our three siblings means the strength of the Verdi family! Hand me the cup!”

“Ah, not even a mister.”

From the side, Deia immediately frowned and glared at Darius.

Took.

I reached out and clinked the glass.

“Five! Ohhh!”

Touched by that, Darius half-cryed, and both my gaze and his gaze turned to the youngest at the same time.

“Is this a betrayal ?! oh, really.”

In the end, Deia held out her cup as if pushed.

The glasses of the three of us collide against the background of the campfire flame, creating a cheerful resonance.

I slowly took out my drink at a scene that suddenly reminded me of the Taoyuan Resolution I had seen in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

“to be touched! I didn’t think we had anything like family love!”

Darius, who is very happy, comes between me and Deia and puts their arms around their shoulders.

In an instant, I quickly pulled myself away from the gunshot wound on my left shoulder, and Deia, on the contrary, threw out her anger.

“Drunk?! I know he’s you! You don’t have to be careful!”

“Mi, I’m sorry.”

Darius immediately curls up and apologizes. In fact, in terms of the degree of injury, Darius was worse.

“Uhh, are you okay?”

Two people caught my attention. I peeked at my left shoulder and casually said to Deia, who was worried.

“Shouldn’t you have shot a little more lightly?”

“… … Well?”

“yes?”

Two people looking at each other with the same voice at the same time. Then, with a nervous expression, he starts talking about something gibberish.

“Cho, was the gun able to shoot lightly? ah! Well, it’s a gun with mana, so if you adjust it… … .”

“Was that even possible? If the power is determined by the skill of the user, it seems to be a fairly sophisticated item.”

Looking at the two people who were taking it quite seriously, I felt a little awkward and said as if tossing it for no reason.

“It’s a joke.”

Two hardened people.

They looked at me at the same time again, and about 3 seconds later.

let out a sigh

“Nongdaaa?! What about Deus? That Deus was joking?!”

“No, where did you learn that! Indeed! A guy who lived with only alcohol and women every day… … !”

The commotion spread in an instant.

“You said the professor was joking? Gee, really? What did you say?!”

“The owner ignored my words, let’s hear what Ji said.”

[Does the disciple have a cute corner?]

Seeing people and ghosts flocking in.

“Sigh.”

Annoyance flooded in.
