Knights, Let’s Smash Them

84 – Superstar Knight (3)

“Hello, may the spirit of happiness accompany you in your life.”

Anyone who walked proudly into the interview room was an elf.

Long ears, a fine face, and green hair that stretched long enough to look like a beautiful woman from behind.

‘But strangely, it’s hard to tell the difference between elves.’

Since all of them are pretty and handsome, from my point of view, there was a limit to distinguishing them based on hair color, clothing, and tone of voice.

She said she had seen three elven siblings before, but then she thought they were real triplets.

But of the elven adventurers I know, very few have reached the diamond level.

In the first place, not only did elves not have many jobs called adventurers, but as they are a race that loves the original nature, they didn’t show interest in things like hunting and exploring dungeons, which are the main jobs of adventurers.

Well, a rookie elf adventurer who appeared like a comet. Is it that way?

Because it is a race that is not known as much as its mysterious image. It’s not strange at all that a talented person who has lived in the forest all his life suddenly falls down.

“I am Baron Alroy of Luverne, a loyal vassal of Count Dionaos Rupel and administrator of the Snow Leopard Knights.”

I lightly bow my head to the elf, and he responds with a grin.

“This is Regius.”

“I heard that you are a diamond-class adventurer. Is there any reason why you have come to our knights?”

If you are a diamond class adventurer, you will be treated wherever you go.

Adventurers, like mercenaries, are relatively scorned occupations, but to rise to the rank of diamond in such a harsh place means that one skill alone is outstanding.

In the county’s knights, there are cases where gold or platinum level adventurers are sometimes knighted.

I have never seen a case where a diamond adventurer belongs to a knighthood.

Originally, a successful freelancer earns much more money than an ordinary office worker.

The elf who identified himself as Regius slowly nodded at my question and opened his mouth.

“It was because you were here, Luverne Alroy.”

Uh…….

What…… ?

For a moment, even though I was dumbfounded by the completely unexpected answer, Regius put an additional wedge into it.

“I was wondering who the hell you are.”

I felt my lower legs getting chilly, and my body trembled involuntarily.

‘If I’m not mistaken…… This is clear…….’

I hurriedly got up and politely declined.

“Oh, sorry. I am heteros*xual.”

f*ck.

This is my first time seeing a gay elf.

***

Evil! I love spirits, elf adventurer!

Would you mind if I ask you to deny your request to join the Knights or try asking for permission!!

…… Fortunately, nothing like that happened.

“Hmm, what kind of story is that?”

“Yes? I’m heteros*xual…….”

“Are you familiar with Wolfgang, the leader of the Sleepywood troupe? He is a close friend who was born and raised in the same hometown as him.”

“Ah!!”

That’s right.

How could an elf be gay?

I was able to regain my composure by quickly passing through the situation that made my spine run cold just thinking about it.

“I heard from Wolfgang that the magistrate named Lubern Eilroy is very capable. Even among the villagers here, the trust is strong.”

“Ha ha ha, thank you.”

So you really decided to join the Knights against me?

If the other person was a human, I would have thought he was completely distracted.

Since Regius was an elf, I couldn’t judge him that way.

I’ve been living here for several years, and there are many cases where the different races have a slightly different way of thinking and lifestyle than humans.

For example, dwarves were a crazy race that ate rice with alcohol, and in the case of some beastmen, polygamy was accepted as a natural thing.

Rather, a male prisoner was surrounded by women and was taken advantage of?

I can still vividly see those eyes asking for help.

From noble mtl dot com.

Really male and female chastity in the world.

As a result, I have no choice but to approach this part very sensitively.

Because we cannot commit the error of hasty generalization with an unprogressive narrow perspective.

Maybe the elf in front of you also lived in such a tribal society.

From the beginning, they are a race that loves the beautiful harmony of body and soul, faith, faith, nature and leisure, and peace.

If you are close friends with Wolfgang of the Sleepywood Wanderers who once stayed in Tiffen Village for over a month, there is a possibility that he expressed his intention to join the Knights simply based on his popularity…….

But Regius ruthlessly shattered my expectations this time too.

“But what do you mean by joining the Knights?”

“What? Aren’t you here to join the Knights?”

“No.”

“?????”

The guild leader also looked like he had no idea what was going on.

“I simply came to look for a magistrate named Lubern Eilo.”

The confusion that arose came to an end when Regius, who quickly read the airflow, clearly revealed the purpose of his visit.

Era Sifal.

Yes, it was a bit strange for a diamond level adventurer to abandon his identity and join the Knights from the start.

But it was really a waste.

Why would the torture of hope be the torture of hope?

It was a 5-star gacha limited pick-up angle…….

As I suddenly lost my vitality and shrank, the guild leader next to me looked at my expression and noticed.

“Ah, the staff must have had a little misunderstanding. It hasn’t been long since that friend came in.”

“It can be. It can be.”

Happenings stemmed from a slight misunderstanding.

I’m not such a narrow-minded bandaeng that I can say anything about this.

“Then you came simply to talk to me.”

“I went to the Knights Headquarters and heard that you are here as an adventurer’s guild.”

“Aha.”

Then the guild leader sighed and stood up from his seat.

“Then I will leave. Aren’t you done with the interview schedule?”

“Well, I guess.”

“I have another schedule scheduled for the evening, so I think I will have to go soon.”

“Please enter carefully. Thank you so much for your help today.”

An adventurer’s guild leader is also a surprisingly busy job. Not only in Petalonto, but also in the small branches scattered throughout Rupel Manor, he had to manage them one by one.

“The two of you can talk leisurely here. I’ll ask the staff to bring you some simple refreshments.”

The guild leader disappeared just like that, and soon the mistaken employee scratched his head and brought refreshments.

It was a set of high-end snacks brought by the guild from the capital the other day.

He apologized again to me and Regius and quickly left the drawing room.

It must be quite embarrassing to be the one who made a fuss for no reason.

It might have been because it was the first time I had ever seen a diamond adventurer. Because Pirhaq stayed only in Tippen Village last time.

Only me and Regius were left in that large drawing room.

Awkward silence.

Regius silently bit off a few pieces of cookies, then he made direct eye contact with me and said.

“Magician Alroy of Luberne, what happened to Lucy?”

“Keu-huh-! Fu, Kelok Coke!!”

Similarly, I, who was drinking tea in a very awkward airflow, immediately spurted out a cool word at one word that came in with a hook.

Before Regius took a direct hit from the hydro pump that protruded from my mouth, he gestured lightly to clear the secretions from the air at once.

A magic that requires no casting, wands, or spells.

It is spiritism.

If you’re a diamond-level adventurer and an elf, of course you’re an elementalist.

With just that simple movement, I was able to vaguely realize how advanced Regius’ spirit art had reached.

“Have you seen Lucy?”

“Yes. He was running around the city with the children of the city. I was a little surprised.”

“…… Do you even know his identity?”

At the question he spat out, the lofty elf answered without hesitation.

“The blood of the gold dragon flowed. It is also very strong.”

You’ve definitely been identified.

Only like this, it was clear that abstaining would not work.

My elf, Wolfgang, had also encountered Lucy, but she didn’t show any sign of feeling anything.

“Did you tell someone else?”

Anyway, he is someone who knows Lucy’s identity.

As her safety is a serious matter, let me be a little wary.

Regius held out his palms and placed them on the table as if to reassure him.

It was an unspoken expression that I had no intention of hurting you.

He didn’t just express himself, he even gave his real name.

“My real name is Learlique Girdo Uraos. It means rain clouds covering the outer forest. I’m not trying to harm her.”

For an elf to tell a human his true name means that he has sincerely acknowledged that person.

As long as they live for an eternity, the name of an elf in itself represents a long history and traces of time.

Since the opponent has come this far, it is impossible to remain vigilant.

“Just…… How did she get her. I am just curious about the reason.”

At least there is no hostility.

Nine out of ten cases in which an elf expresses hostility first is when the other party has done something wrong, or if that is not the case, it is only when the elf’s individual sensory judgment keeps them away.

Elves were especially worthy of being compared to magical races such as dragons, among many human-type heterogeneous races.

Rather, Regius must be trying to figure out the intention of ‘I’ who brought Lucy, the lineage of the gold dragon.

I finally decided to tell the elf in front of me about my current situation.

“She is half-human, half-dragon. She is the child of the dragon knight Orgius and the gold dragon.”

From the goblin lair near Tiffen Village to the red dragon Perthuscaron.

A long story has begun.

***

“That’s how it turned out.”

“I have it purely for protection. When it grows to a certain extent, then the truth will have to be told.”

“You made a wise choice. I really appreciate your kindness.”

Regius bowed his head in gratitude. I was just doing the obvious thing, but there are a lot of people in the world who don’t do the ‘obvious’ thing.

“Mr. Luverne Alroy.”

“Tell me.”

“I heard that they are looking for members of the Knights.”

What? Wait for a sec.

To say such a thing at this timing…….

“Yes, I am.”

“Is my race or status a condition that prevents me from joining the Knights?”

My head went white again. At this point, the question comes to mind again.

“Do you really intend to join the Knights?”

“If possible, I would like to see her grow. The spirits accompanying me seem to want the same.”

Spirit.

An elf who has left her beloved hometown, she travels by following the spirits’ guidance rather than settling in one place.

Sometimes, if a spirit suggests to settle down in an area for a while.

As the saying goes, elves settle down and live there.

From as short as a few days to as long as decades.

For elves who live a thousand years lightly and for spirits who are more than material beings, decades of time are regarded as mere fleeting memories.

This was the case with the former Imperial Ranger elves who participated in the last expedition.

Hasn’t Wolfgang, who was leading the wandering troupe in question, settled down in Tiffen Village for a few weeks?

“If my species is a problem, there is no need for you to join me. Just living and watching in this city…….”

I grabbed the hand of Regius, who was making a sad face, and shook his head vigorously.

“No!! Of course you can sign up!!”

Anyone can see that human rights catchers with fraudulent performance are rolling in on their own feet?

Ah, how can you put up with this?
