Rodrick's body stiffened.

I couldn't think of anything to say as an excuse.

‘No, if you keep your mouth shut like this, you will be more misunderstood.’

Last night.

We literally just talked.

Since the lord has not done anything that could be misunderstood, he may be able to rectify

he thought he would

“Young lord. in fact… .”

“Is she the village maiden she entered the castle yesterday?”

"Yes? Yes, it is."

The lord's face changed into a grim look. He hated losing what he had.

Had I known she was such a beauty, last night she had nothing to do.

“Rodrick. I trusted you and gave you confidence, but you hit me in the back like this?”

“Lord! You are mistaken!”

"Get out now!"

As Rodrick faltered, a guard came and pulled him out.

"in fact… .”

“What is the truth?”

Rodrick was speechless.

what do you mean by explaining

He didn't want to reveal to Phrygia that he had come to spend his first night pretending to be a lord.

But I didn't want to say that we were just talking and nothing happened.

‘I don’t want to show such an ugly face in front of Freesia.’

Eventually, Rodrick fell into the hands of the guards.

He was dragged and imprisoned in a dungeon.

Freesia looked at the lord who closed the door and left with an expression that she did not understand the English language.

What would you do?

Hurin asked Soon-won.

Originally, I was going to watch and see what kind of prank Kunlun was playing, but things were going strangely.

Let's wait one more day.

Soon-won came up with one possibility.

♦ ♦ *

Imprisoned in prison, Rodrick nodded due to lack of sleep, so he lay down on the floor and fell asleep.

how much time has passed

He woke up in a dungeon with no windows, so he didn't know how much time had passed.

He couldn't tell if it was day or night.

“Is anyone there?”

Shout out to ask the guard about the situation.

I looked, but there was no one in the hallway.

Since it is a place that suffers from a shortage of manpower, it is natural that no one resides in this place where people are not often locked up.

'I need to clear up the misunderstanding... .'

Even if he gave up his pride, fell flat on the floor and apologized, it was clear that he would return.

‘Should I be lucky that I didn’t get hit with a whip?’

If I could make freesia my own, it would be a shame to lose a good job

didn't

But she said she just lost her job because she had her fiancee.

“Whoa… .”

A sigh came out.I wanted to go to a bar and have a cold beer.

rumble!

I looked at the place where the sound was coming from and the iron window was open. Obviously no one was there, but the door opened by itself.

"what?"

It's not even an old lock, it opens by itself

He wondered if he was possessed by a ghost.

“No, this is a heaven-given opportunity.”

He opened the hearing and went out.

The old hinge made a noise, but no one came down to check it. Rodrik cautiously climbed the stairs and looked outside.

quiet.

Because the geography of the castle is quicker than anyone else's, he moved to a path not visited by nobles as much as possible.

I met the maids, but they

I thought that I would not have heard of his punishment already.

"Hello. Rodrick.”

Seeing him smiling and talking, it was clear that he didn't know yet.

“Where is the lord?”

“They said that Count Janello’s eldest daughter was coming, so we went outside to meet him.”

“Is it the North Gate?”

"Yes? Yes.”

"I get it."

It's an opportunity.

Rodrick flew and ran to his guest room. There was Phrygia, who was eating the food the maid had brought.

“Lordrick?”

“Come out.”

She grabbed Freesia's wrist and ran. He took her horse from her stable, put her on her back, and exited through her south door.

‘I didn’t come out with food or money just because I came out in a hurry.’

She was just as crazy as she was.

‘First, go to a friend’s house, change clothes, borrow some money, and go home.

let's go back and… .'

I looked back.

With a surprised expression on her face, she saw Frysia's face asking where she was going.

“This is the Lord’s order. You can bite her tongue, so keep her mouth shut. Come on!”

Rodrick lied.

* ♦ *

"what? Rodrick ran away?”

bang! The lord got angry and smashed his desk. Then the captain of the guard broke the spark

Fearing that it might happen, he bowed his back and tightened it.

“It’s my fault.”

“Where was the jailer and what was he doing?”

“When Andrea-sama is coming, he told me to mobilize every single guard... .”

“No, in common sense, if there is a prisoner, you should have left a guard!”

The guard captain obviously asked the lord about that part.

I remember he told me to bring the jailer out, but if I ask the lord about it now, the ashtray will fly in my face

It was clear to hear

“… Sorry. I will go and catch you right now.”

“Wait, who was the girl who came in yesterday because she couldn’t pay her taxes?”

"I'll check."

It didn't take long to confirm that Freesia had disappeared.

The captain of the guard came along with the chief maid in case all anger would come upon him.

“Say it!”

“… I think Lord Rodrik took him and ran away.”

In the end, the lord's anger exploded.

"What are you doing? Go get it right now!”

The captain of the guard did not rush to leave and turned his body to look at the lord.

“If you do not comply with the arrest… .”

“You can kill him. Bring the woman unscathed.”

"all right."

A pursuit team was formed.

♦ * *

Why did you unlock the lock?

Thanks to the unexpected item, I was able to figure out how to get Master Kunlun's soul out of that woman's body.

An item received as a reward from The King after conquering the Tower of Cthulhu.

I saw how to use it and thought I would never use it, so I put it in a space, but it came to be useful like this.

How can I take it out?

Hurin lay down in the sky as if on a cloud. Pillow up her arms

As if lying on her head, she was slowly flying through the sky as Soon-won led.

Her feelings should intensify. That's the condition.

Wouldn't it be more intense if you just hold up her knife and threaten her?

It is not driven by such one-dimensional intimidation. A little more complicated and subtle emotions that need it.

E.g?

I believe this situation will lead to such a situation now.

Soon-won believes from a dozen meters above

I looked down. Since she was using invisibility magic, there was no chance of being caught with Hurin and Jihee.

'After all, a pursuit team is attached.'

The captain of the guard and Rodrick were quite close. They knew each other so well that they knew exactly where Rodrick was going to run away.

That was something Rodrick himself was well aware of.

"this."

As the horse was galloping down the hill, I could see the guards running out of the castle from afar.

'After all, Padrang knows where I'm going.'

The problem is that the mouth is light.

After drinking and discussing personal affairs, he is expecting to visit a friend who lives in a nearby area.

‘But I can’t help but hear it there.’

The horse he was riding gasped for breath.

Running on a hill with full power is also difficult because two people are riding it.

“Hold on a little bit. As long as you go up the hill, it goes downhill from there.”

Fridge, who has never ridden a horse before

Frightened, he hugged Rodrick's back.

Rodrik felt that he wished time could stop at this moment.

Will a woman named Freesia accept Rodrick's heart?

Jihee said.

Wouldn't she slap her ears if she told the truth?

Hurin said with a smirk.

no. lets think. If she spends just one night with the lord, she will go back to the village and get married, boast of her engagement, and live well, but now because of a man named Rodrick,

I'm being chased by hypertrophy.

Soon-won also agreed with that idea.

A man is filming a romance, but for a woman, there is no other horror film.

Although the three of them couldn't hear their conversation, Frygia noticed that things were taking a strange turn.

“Lordrick.”“Speaking can hurt your tongue. Be still.”

“Where are you going now? Are you trying to get out of town without any explanation?”

“I will explain when I arrive.”

"no. If you don't listen now, I'll jump."

Freesias are not plants grown in greenhouses. She was born the daughter of a farmer, and she grew up doing heavy work in the fields.

As she was confronted with a situation completely different from the world she had seen all her life until now, she was surprised and calm, but when she came out of the castle, she was able to come to her senses.

“Wow!”

Eventually, she stopped talking.

Rodrick was nervous, but he felt it was right to explain her situation to her.

heard.

“I'll be honest. Do you want to enter the lord's concubine?”

"Yes?"

Freesia's eyes widened in surprise at her unexpected words.

“Freesia. Your appearance is so beautiful that even I, who is not interested in women, fell in love at first sight. She got mad at me in the morning because the lord thought so too.”

“What do you mean?”

Rodrick is finally forced to explain the conversation she had with the lord last night.

it was

“I went to see you yesterday to solve the night area, and I fell in love with you, Phrygia. If you go on like this, you will be captured into the castle and the night power will be activated, and you will never be able to return to the village again, Phrygia.”

“What the hell is that? Please explain properly!”

Rodrik glanced at the road he had passed, as if hesitantly. There was a fear that the guards might come running right away and pierce him in the chest with his spear.

“Uh-huh, I’m only going to explain it once.

Please listen.”

Rodrik summed up the situation and explained it. Phrygia said she wasn't stupid enough that she didn't even understand that, and that's when she figured out the situation.

“It’s like that.”

“Yes, do you understand? Come on, get on your horse!”

Freesia shook her head.

“I will not ride a horse.”

“Did you not understand what I was saying?”

“No, I understand.”

“You don’t mean to live as the lord’s concubine, are you? how unfortunate it is

Do you not know?”

concubine's life.

Beautiful times are going to pass quickly.

If she becomes the concubine of a nobleman, she will enjoy a prosperous life like a lady for several years, but the lord will take a young woman as his concubine again, and her footsteps will be cut off.

If she was the concubine of a wealthy aristocrat, she would give her a house and some slaves to run a farm with paddy fields in a secluded place, but the lord of this area was not a wealthy man.

“If she is abandoned in less than 10 years and returns to the village, it is fortunate that she is not beaten with stones because she was attached to and eaten by a nobleman. She wants to go into the woods and live her life, then quietly grow old alone?”

“That kind of life wouldn’t be bad. In the meantime, my family won't go hungry. and… .”

Freesia ripped her long skirt as if it was cumbersome.

“Even if I run away, I will go to my house. Sir Rodrick. It's only been one day since I met you. I do not love you.”

"then!"

Rodrick was shocked.

Hopefully, she hadn't considered her option of rejecting her.

‘No, why didn’t I think Freesia would make this choice?’

That's weird.

Usually 2nd option. Contrary to my confidence in thinking and moving all the way down to the U, the choice was too accidental.

"what? why me… .”

Rodrick grabbed his head.

At that moment, Soon-won could feel the subtle magic flowing from Freesia's body.
