My Viins Episode 339


    58. Reunion (8)


    The battle ended with the death of the troll medium.


    The spirits faded away like candlelight, swept away by the cool wind, and the troll warriors who epted the spirits of the beasts and ran amok groaned and cut their throats.


    Most of the bloody mane mercenaries were scattered immediately, and there were only a handful of them stirring up the main force of Count Os.


    Of course, he fled in all directions to save his life right after the whole troll troll had been ughtered.


    The Antrum Army was exhausted from the battle that started with the night raid, and the Ulkar Army was too weak to run through the night, so they couldn’t pursue it. Of course, Utequai and Fritz and some other rambunctious guys chased the enemy, but they returned after getting drunk for a while.


    And finally, the time to unwind hase.


    “Nix.”


    As they approached by driving the bicorn, Atnta, who had been holding her breath, threw down her white spear and flew away.


    “Ugh. Hey, be careful-”


    As if it didn’t matter what she said, she took off my helmet and started kissing me.


    Reason ordered Atnta to be pushed away, but instinct paralyzed by the sweet scent of jasmine stopped it.


    Great.” The subordinates, including Confidre, came this way and stopped. Except for Dervish, who was whistling with a sinister expression, everyone was pretending to be embarrassed.


    Atnta, who did not pay attention to the gaze of my men, stopped kissing only when six or seven horsemen dressed in red cloth and iron rings came running.


    “Oh hy- Napidot!”


    “……uh?”


    The middle-aged man running in the lead among the nude cavalrymen seemed familiar. Who was it?


    “Sir Phoenix.”


    The warrior who caught my gaze greeted me with an iron helmet under a ck hood. It was only when I heard the voice that I remembered his name.


    “Agos.”


    “long time no see.”


    Argos is an archer who freely handles a longbow as tall as himself, and was one of the Nu Dane warriors who apanied Atnta when he cooperated with Longville.


    “…Thest time I saw you, I was greatly blessed. I will never forget the mercy shown to me and the entire al-Qadari n back then.”


    It was this Agos who begged for her life when Atnta lost her sense of reason for some reason and ran amok and was subdued by me.


    After epting his greetings, he looked around and saw that six men and women d in thick armor and armed with curved swords were following him. It was clear that they were elite warriors of the Nudein tribe called ‘Hareskis’.


    “Sir, excuse me for a second.”


    After bowing politely, Agos poured out words as if reprimanding Atnte. It was thenguage of the Nudin people, otherwise called ‘Gon’.


    Atnta did not hide her annoyance and answered in theirnguage, then passed the white thorn to Argos.


    “Oh, enough of the nagging. I’m busy.”


    “Napidat.”


    “Stop, stop. Everyone must be tired, so go get some rest. I will take care of myself.”


    “……Uhm.”


    Agos let out a deep sigh with the face of a father seeing his immature daughter, and retreated with the Hareskis.


    “uh?”


    Atnta opened her eyes wide as if she had finally discovered my men.


    “Are these the kids you have?”


    “What is that?”


    “It’s the first face everyone sees.”


    Cathedral knight Kabar had returned to the camp first, and Fritz was nowhere to be seen. So the only ones following me were Confair and five other soldiers, the night watchman, Dn, the spearman, McKay, and the iron-d Taggart.


    “I don’t see him. Who is that….


    A boring kid? shooting a bow.”


    “who? call?” “Oh, call. Can’t you see him and the short bald head?”


    “You mean Steedman?”


    Iughed bitterly and scratched my cheek.


    “I’m somewhere else for some reason.”


    “Hmm?”


    “That’s not what’s important now, what the hell happened? How are you here?”


    Atnta was perched on the front of the bicorn saddle, facing me.


    It was a bit embarrassingly close-knit, and thanks to that, some of the subordinates who had never heard of her wondered, ‘Who else is that woman?’ I was looking at you.


    Either that or not, she just touched my ear lobe with a twirling face.


    “I remember? We met before.”


    “…You mean quasi-dimensional? That your n’s camp?”


    “It wasn’t a dream after all.”


    “of course. It was at that time that we talked about Iope.”


    “that’s right. Then, do you remember when I said that I went under Prince Ulkar for a while?”


    “O” Heh.


    You said you nned to rely on Ulkar to gather forces before reiming the n’s homnd.


    I nodded my head and added ament.


    “Apart from that, I heard some news. I heard that you are stationed in Port Auduenne.”


    “uh. I was pushed back by the fish guys for a while, but I got it back quickly. That was almost two months ago.”


    “So you came here in the meantime.”


    “yes. For some reason, the ‘Witch of Praise’ quietly withdrew, and what was urgent at the time was the ‘King of Death’ and the undead army.”


    At that time, Ulkar summoned most of his troops to his High Castle. It was a n to confront the Elector Counts of Mittergend after fighting the undead army.


    “But the work was cut in half. Thanks to you.”


    Since the undead army was crushed at Seteniora Monastery, the Ulkar army prepared for a battle with the Elector Counts while protecting High Castle.


    “In the meantime, that woman found a wyvern. Did you see dozens passing over the clouds?”


    Atnta pointed to Ulkar, who was talking with General Meil and others in the camp where ck smoke rose far away, and pointed to the knight guarding the side.


    “Everyone calls him ‘The Birdhawk Knight,’ but it must be because he likes his eyes.”


    It was Gis Winged, called the sixth knight of the Silver Prince.


    From the outside, she looked like a pretty woman wearing a lily-patterned cape, but she was a famous knight who had been known for ten years.


    He hadn’t met me since he had been away for a while on family matters. But apart from that, it seemed that he had a pretty deep rtionship with Ulkar.


    …No, I think it’s more than that when I look in your eyes. I’m a bit confused.


    “Is that why the prince came in person to chase down the dragon knights of Topal?”


    “uh. It was a situation where reconnaissance was needed anyway, so I only brought the best


    among the guardsmen .”


    “You said there was a situation that needed reconnaissance?”


    “Bloodmane mercenaries. About a week ago, I got information that it crossed only the de.”


    Well, we from Antrum expected the arrival of those dragons, so there’s no way that Ulkar, who was guarding the teau, didn’t know about it.


    “Did you get in there?”


    “Even my kids are not good at dealing with horses. And somehow, I just got the hang of it.”


    ” persimmon’?”


    “Yeah.”


    Atnta smiled wide and cool. His eyes were dark, and his eyes were dark amber, and thanks to that, they were in a subtle harmony with the purple hair of the void.


    What is that hair color called? Is it ash gray or ash purple?


    “I thought I’d meet you if I followed the prince.”


    “How do you know that?”


    “I told you. Because it’s a feeling.”


    “really?”


    “Well, I heard that you will bring reinforcements from Lianwell.”


    I also had a need for face to keep the upper body in close contact with each other, so I stopped the bicorn at an appropriate ce.


    It was around the time that the reins were roughly tied to a por tree that was still intact without a trace of soot at the edge of the camp.


    “…It’s been a while, isn’t it?”


    When I turned around at Atnta’s cold voice, I saw a beauty riding a dark horse approaching among the men driving horses.


    “He.


    “You must be tired from waking up, soe and sit down.”


    Blinking quietly, at my invitation, she got off her horse and handed the reins to Umberta. Then he walked slowly and met Atnta’s eyes.


    “Yeah, it’s been a while.”


    “How are you today? If you still get it wrong, do you solve it in a fun way like ‘then’?”


    “no.”


    “Oh yeah? Maybe you’ve decided to change your strategy’?”


    “no.”


    “…No?”


    “huh. I didn’t have to use it that way. for a while.”


    We didn’t even say a few words, but the morning air was doubly cold.


    “You are very proud. Where are the Nyx bunch and Ellen?”


    “…Each of them has their own circumstances, so they’re in different ces for a while.” “aha. So that’s what he did.” I let out a deep sigh at the not-so-friendly atmosphere between He and Atnta.


    “…is this deja vu? I think I reconciled them once in a simr situation.”


    “that’s right. We made peace.”


    Atnta shrugged her shoulders with a calm expression.


    “But isn’t it strange that I greet him with a smile hahahoho?”


    “Do you think so too?” He replied with an expressionless face.


    “well. Anyway, I can’t sell anyone a smile.”


    “what?”


    “The Nudes are good at that.”


    “Har carbatu.”


    He turned her head away as if it was not worth responding to Atnte’s muttering, which could be guessed to be abusive even from a cursory listen.


    I cupped my forehead and there was silence for a moment.


    Eson, covered in dirt, said, ‘What is this. I can’t breathe…’ Dervish muttered, covered in dark green bodily fluid of unknown origin, and replied, ‘Shut up, idiot.’


    “Sir Phoenix!”


    A very cheerful voice from somewhere broke the tension.


    “Ah, Princess Theodora.”


    “Oh, that was great.”


    Theodora had thrown off not only the three-color brilliance, but also the heavy full helm. Light blonde hair, light green eyes, and a bright smile seemed to drive away the darkness.


    “What are you talking about?”


    “These boots. I guessed that it was a magic tool, but I never imagined that it would fly like a bird. It was to the point that I admired your boldness without realizing it.”


    “Ah…


    “The ‘Fall from the Sky’ that I showed you before must have grown the wall of the sutra. My hamstrings still tingle when I think of the memories of that time, but my heart beats at the thought that one day I will ovee that ordeal and gain great courage.”


    Seeing Theodora smiling brightly and chattering away, He just blinked her eyes. Atnta murmured, ‘What is Alkarf like?’, but the voice she spat unconsciously was quite loud, so the princess immediately turned her gaze to her.


    “Oh, there was also ‘Aran Hares’.”


    “Aran Hares?”


    At my questionable gaze, Atnta stepped out with an awkward smile.


    “It’s a Gon word for a high-ranking female warrior, and it’s simr to my nickname… Whispering that, she bowed to Theodora.


    “It is an honor to have the opportunity to meet you again, Princess.”


    “Yeah, nice to meet you too.”


    Theodora, who had been chattering with her pure appearance until just now, showed a very natural attitude befitting her status.


    “I saw you and your warriors in action. It was great. With the blessing of the Lord, my maternal uncle received great blessings.”


    “…thank you.” I heard that the nude people’s religion ‘Gon’ has the same roots as the Kwangmyeong Church, but there is a big difference in doctrine in that they worship a personal god.


    It was for this reason that the Church of El Ganore and the Church of Cndari, who regarded each other as brothers on the surface, regarded Gon as an obvious heretic.


    Whether she didn’t know this, or if she knew it and pretended not to know it, Theodore continued with a gentle smile.


    “You seem to know Lord Phoenix Aran Hares?”


    “I’ve been in a rtionship before… I didn’t know that the princess was acquainted with Atnte.”


    “There is nothing to say that we know each other. Did you just say hello through your lodging? Since he is an arcanist with excellent skills, I wanted to see his skill once, but it turned out to be an impossible battle.”


    At thatpliment, Atnta scratched her neck with an awkward expression. Theodora continued with a smile.


    “But as my pdin, I had to warn you.”


    “yes’?”


    “It can be misunderstood to be somewhat inappropriate. Although the ethnicity and culture are heterogeneous, there arews that must be followed, so be careful.”


    “…What do you mean by that?”


    When Atnta asked back, dumbfounded, the princess deliberately put on a stern expression.


    “Sir Phoenix and Miss He here are engaged in marriage. Even if you share your feelings as arade, you must keep the line when dealing with the opposite sex. You’d better keep that in mind.”


    Atnta was speechless, and He looked up at Theodora, blinking her slightly erged eyes.


    w…… Uh ”


    M3


    Theodora is the granddaughter of King Mnol and the niece of Duke Topal, and at the same time an anointed member of the Church of Cndari.


    From her point of view, since I was a knight of my maternal uncle, there was a justification for being out of ce. Also, as a priest, she had the right to preach on thew.


    In the end, it would be best to shut up in this situation, but seeing Atnte with a gloomy expression, I couldn’t stay still.


    “Princess.”


    “hmm? Tell me, Sir Phoenix.”


    “Thanks for the advice. However, I will take care of the problem you mentioned, so don’t worry, Princess.”


    Theodora seemed a little surprised, perhaps because the words were quite direct.


    “…Yes, I understand. I said something wrong.”


    After saying nothing, she stepped back and touched the stain on the surcoat.


    This time with a sullen face. Subtly, the change in facial expression is dramatic.


    A strange current flowed around He and Atnte Theodora. The bizarre atmosphere that no one, let alone me, could talk about….


    Just at that moment when I was thinking about running away. A savior has appeared.


    “I made you wait a long time.”


    As if the conversation with General Meil had ended, Ulkar was approaching with only a few of his closest aides.


    “Prince!”


    He was so handsome with a cheerful smile on his face. It was definitely the first time in my life that I had been so happy to see a man.
