#9 Capital (5)

Aman was embarrassed.

As soon as Tyria and Madame disappeared, her complexion suddenly changed and she acted so disrespectfully.

‘I’m sure you said he was a no-nonsense guy?’

It was information from someone you could trust.

Tyria’s husband who returned to Wibin Mansion… So, Portman’s family head is obviously a thunderbolt who has not been properly educated as an aristocrat.

There’s nothing to be ashamed of, he’s a guy who calls in knights from the neighboring territory to hunt monsters.

But what about this look?

‘what… .’

It didn’t seem like a big deal at all.

Instinct is always more honest than reason.

Aman’s body stiffened.

His eyes were so sharp that he could hardly come up with a proper rebuttal.

It was a very unfamiliar feeling for Aman, who had lived as Nimrud’s spirit child.

Fear of unfamiliar things, unfamiliar situations, and unfamiliar people.

As is the habit of the human species, Aman began to show an inertial response to him.

“dare!”

“dare?”

“Are you rebelling against Nimrud without even knowing the subject!”

reverse

In Perdin, Nimrud was a family with a decent status.

Anyway, the connections his father, Count Nimrud had, were enough to establish a new law in this kingdom.

He spread his shoulders wide and shouted loudly, but it was empty.

No matter how frightened herbivores tried to stretch their bodies, the predators could only see them as fat.

Ahman’s cry, not knowing it, continued in a fit of convulsion.

“Do you think only Wee Bin can protect you! what? teaching? Culture? Do you think you are in a position to challenge me for that!!!”

There was a destination for the words leading up to pointing.

“I mean, you know the subject! If you are a baron in a secluded country estate, bow your head! The horse is like that… .”

“Pheh!”

A mischievous laugh escaped Elric’s lips.

No, it was a mockery.

“Kuhhh… .”

His shoulders trembled and he smiled, but his expression was very strange.

“Malbonsae, Malbonsae… .”

He brushed his chin and salivated, “um,” but his gaze was not on Aman.

You seem to be thinking differently.

That feeling came to mind, and it was actually right.

“Sorry for laughing. Suddenly, I thought of the old days.”

Elric sat down on the sofa and leaned back.

Aman stopped looking up at him.

But I wasn’t at all relieved.

It felt like I was out of breath.

It felt like my knees were going to bend.

Elric’s usual suppressed energy flowed out, and it was a natural reaction.

“It’s a bit old. So it was the fall of my 16th year… .”

Elric suddenly started talking about the old days.

“At that time, I wasn’t really smart. It still is, but more then. Besides, since the place you lived in is a town far from caring for young people, isn’t your personality very dirty?”

“What… .”

“I had a very bad habit of speaking. It was a time when everyone cursed or squeaked, regardless of top or bottom… The person who was managing me at that time said that.”

Tuk, tok, Elric tapped the floor with the tip of his cane.

A look of longing flashed across his face.

“Words are human vessels. So try to be as polite as you say what you think in your mind. Then your bowl will grow that much.”

“… .”

“So from then on, I started to change my tone. At that time, I thought the tone of old people was polite, so I started to learn it.

I couldn’t figure out what the point was.

Aman couldn’t get out of the thought that he was scorning him.

It was the moment when I was about to open my lips.

“Well, putting that aside, the important thing is that I eventually became a person who can pretend to be polite on the outside.”

His gaze turned to Aman.

Something seemed a little more red than before.

“However, it seems that the fundamentals of people do not change much.”

It was right after the word stuck in my ear.

“Sometimes my personality leaks out. That man’s words don’t seem to be very trustworthy.”

whirk-

With that sound, Ahman’s view of the world turned upside down.

bang!

It wasn’t until after the impact hit his head with a sound that Aman realized that he was pinned to the floor.

“Oops!”

The pain was indescribable when he was hung head first on the floor.

It was a very embarrassing pain for Aman, who had never felt such pain before.

The snow rolls around.

It was to find the reason why the body was hung.

In the meantime, he saw the cane slung over Elric’s shoulder before he knew it.

Then my ankle hurts.

He hit his ankle with a cane and knocked him down.

“This, this… .”

“It is very difficult to hold back. Aren’t we supposed to treat things that don’t even look like human beings? I don’t think I can be that kind of person.”

Again, Ahman was in the posture of looking up at Elric.

No, it’s more miserable than before.

Aman had to crawl on the floor and look up at him.

That was the moment.

“From our point of view, this seems right.”

Elric said with a cool smile.

“I’m thinking of looking up somewhere. I don’t even know the subject.”

Took, Elric’s staff touched Ahman’s forehead.

It was insulting.

I couldn’t resist either.

Elric’s atmosphere had a sense of alienation, different from the human atmosphere Ahman knew.

Even the fearful father was not so afraid.

The snow is drooping down.

One, what is his pride? Aman’s mouth was spitting out one more word even while it was shaking.

“Yes, I thought you would be safe even after doing this… .”

“What are you going to do?”

Elric pushed Ahman’s forehead with the tip of his staff.

It was to turn the angle and make eye contact.

He was still cool, relaxed, and savage.

“Are you going to run up to the proud count and complain at least to ask him to punish you? Or would you hire a knight and challenge him to a duel? Either that or what… Would you like to fight yourself? Personally, I like the last method quite a bit. I’m familiar with this one. I will give you my life.”

What is the source of that confidence?

that size? And the power to knock people down with a cane?

Whatever it was, the only thing Aman could do right now was tremble with shame.

It was natural.

How can the seven powers of the continent, who are said to be masters of the battlefield, and Yeong-sik, an aristocrat from the eastern countries of Korea and the US, be on the same line?

It was also not possible to use status or back boat.

It might not have been Edward, the goldsmith, but Katya, the Sword Demon, was not a man to be afraid of.

All who knew him in the West said, without exception, that he had the most savage temper a man could possess, and that he was the most alien to worldly status.

He was a maniac who would use a knife if there was something he didn’t like.

“I wonder if there is anything more to say between us. In fact, what I want is far from a conversation.”

Tuck, Tuck.

Hitting Ahman on the head with his staff, Elric said.

“Go ahead. Get your head around anything and think of a way to repay this insult. wait with joy You only need to keep one thing in mind.”

That moment,

“Keep it… !”

Aman’s throat was strangled.

It was a phenomenon caused by categorizing killing, but there was no way to know such a thing with Aman’s knowledge.

My whole body was shaking and I was short of breath.

There was only fear in him.

“You can try anything you want on me, as long as it doesn’t affect my wife.”

It was a word he handed over clearly, as if he were going to imprint the proposition in his mind.

It was indeed valid.

Aman’s untrained and soft mental power was still tearing up and spitting out affirmations.

“Keuh uh… .”

Shivering, Ahman began crawling toward the door of the dressmaker’s shop.

Elric didn’t catch on.

I just looked at the water left in his path.

“It must be like a snail. A cod that leaks bodily fluids as it crawls.”

Ahman was peeing.

Elric even waved his hand to see him off.

“See you at our banquet. I will be very happy to wait for you to fight back.”

Suddenly, the moment the dressmaker’s door opened, Aman rushed out without looking back.

Elric took a long breath and looked at the door where Ahman left.

‘What should I do with this?’

I was angry, but I also wondered if I had acted too hard.

One regret did not last long.

‘If anything, I’ll have to negotiate with the count.’

Looking at Aman Nimrud’s speech, I am convinced once more that his father, Count Nimrud, is quite prestige.

Elric knew what those people had in common.

In general, they tended to value the interests of themselves and their families more than the face of their children.

If he wanted, Elric could even contract him to wield a sword for him.

‘There’s nothing more to think about.’

It’s not too late to think of a way to do it until then.

In the first place, Aman Nimrud had nothing to fear no matter what he tried.

With that thought in mind, Elric waited for Tyria to return, and it was only later that he could find out why Aman Nimrud had come all the way here to flirt with her.

“… He was the person I picked as my fiancee in Yubinga when I was young. Of course, there was a rejection from that side, and Yubin’s situation was also not good, so it was canceled.”

The moment Elric heard that, a handful of regrets melted away in Elric’s mind.

“Is it?”

Elric felt very offended.

This, too, was an unexpected feeling that surprised even oneself.
