My Wife Waited in the Wheat Fields

#11 Knights (3)

It was an unwelcome sensation that came up from time to time.

Memories from a long battlefield are blurry in memory like this, but at an unexpected moment, they stick their heads out.

Maybe it’s because I dreamed of being a child soldier today.

will be sensitive There is no need for this at all.

Veron is not that child soldier, and his parents and grandfather, Old Man Herman, are not living well.

After all, this isn’t a battlefield, is it?

A peaceful hometown, Yubin.

Secluded Wibin becomes festive when a cow gives birth.

I think consciously, but my breath seldom returns.

Elric’s hand naturally found the dagger that died on the day of the bosom.

As I slowly reached out my hand and recalled the sensation of the cold iron, my breath began to return.

“… man, why Are you feeling unwell?”

Elric shook his head as Old Man Herman’s worried voice was now clearly audible.

“no. I was so surprised to see my Veron.”

He calmed himself down and smiled softly.

“You have grown so much. But you still remember me.”

Elric stood up and patted Veron on the shoulder.

He was too tall for a 14-year-old now.

He was at eye level with himself, so if he continued like this, he might grow up to 2 meters, following the inspiration of Herman.

“Are you helping grandpa with his work?”

When Elric asked, Veron laughed as if he was embarrassed but also pleased.

“yes! My mother is always worried! Even though my grandfather is old, he doesn’t let go of young things.”

“Heh heh, it seems that the old man’s stubbornness is still the same.”

“Are you in a position to insist on me and say something?”

Veron chuckled as Herman clicked his tongue.

Veron’s gaze turned to Wolyeong only then.

“But these people… .”

“Ah, these are the knights of our territory.”

“oh!”

Veron’s eyes widened.

The scarlet eyes that seemed to contain the flames of that brazier burned brightly.

“Are there knights in our territory too!”

For a moment, Elric was taken aback by how much he liked it so much that Herman laughed and said, as if he couldn’t stop it.

“Isn’t this guy making a fuss about wanting to become a knight a while ago?”

“Ha, Grandpa!”

“Why you bastard! Aren’t you going to beg to be put in as a seed when the Knights are in operation? The old woman said she would help with that!”

“Yeah, but… .”

As the grandson’s conversation continued, Elric suddenly felt a jolt in his stomach.

As soon as he imagined Veron holding a sword, he was automatically drawn.

Rejection, or a sense of guilt?

As Elric swallowed his embarrassment, the arrow returned to him.

“Dude, this is such a strange situation. Why are you doing this?”

“Elric hyung?”

My fingertips trembled.

Elric tried to calm him down. The timing was so bad.

If I hadn’t had that dream, there would have been no reason to react so hypersensitively.

There is nothing to say about the level of difficulty because the empty feelings that the unpleasant feelings that remained sticky are seldom pulled out.

said Elric, barely genuine.

“It was burdensome because it seemed to be paying too much attention to the knights that hadn’t even been created yet. These guys are already less adapted to receiving seeds.”

I wish it was a suitable refusal.

Elric immediately turned around.

“Anyway, old man, can I entrust you with making their armor?”

“Um, well, what should I do when I’m the only one who can do it? Don’t do that.”

“Thank you. I’m busy with my other schedule today, so I’m going back. Should I keep them for measurements?”

“Okay, leave the dirty ones here.”

“Insufficient… .”

The corners of Danal’s mouth rose with a creak.

Elric stabbed his side alive.

Only then did Danal’s attitude become polite.

“i look forward to. old man!”

His voice was a little weepy.

*

Elric returned to the mansion alone, leaving Wolyeong behind.

It was a car that felt better after being exposed to the cold air.

After passing through the barren wheat field and finally returning to the mansion, the one I ran into was Tyria, who was just there.

“Honey, how did you come alone?”

Tyria was breathing in an old fur cloak.

After that, a quiet mansion was set in the background, and Elric felt a sense of security without knowing why.

A smile came to mind.

“… It’s going to take a long time to measure the armor, so I came first. But your wife is out on some business.”

“Oh, I was looking at the flower beds because I had some free time.”

Her gaze turned to the dirt floor of the mansion.

It was the height of winter, so it was a brown flowerbed with not even a trace of flowers to be found.

Then something came to mind.

“I decided to plant flowers when spring comes.”

“… yes.”

“It did. I guess so.”

Elric slowly approached her and stood beside her.

Tyria started staring at Elric.

“… Is there something wrong?”

“hmm?”

“Your complexion is not good.”

Tyria stretched out her hand.

Before long, a thin, white hand touched Elric’s cheek.

Elric was startled, but she didn’t care and ran her thumb over her cheek.

“It doesn’t look like you have a cold.”

It was a worried voice.

What is the other reason why my head goes white at this kind of skinship?

And why do you want to lean on it?

Hesitantly, Elric put his hand on top of hers resting on her cheek.

The cold hands soon warmed up.

“… !”

I could feel the tension in my fingertips.

It was quite enjoyable.

“It must have been a bit of a headache trying to create an order of knights.”

It was strange.

As we looked into each other’s eyes, my heart, which had not calmed down even with a dagger, regained complete tranquility.

It felt like I was on the shore of a lake where there was no breeze.

“I feel like a great wife again.”

“Suddenly, you mean?”

“It’s not like managing all of these estates. My head hurts even with just one knight.”

“… Maybe it’s because I’m not used to it. The first time in anything is hard.”

Her gaze then turned to the floor.

The hand fell from the cheek.

However, Elric’s hand was still holding hers.

I woke up thinking that it would be too cold if I let go of this hand.

If you hold my hand tightly, it becomes a shape with interlocking grips.

Elric turned his gaze to the flower bed.

“… So, what flowers are you going to plant?”

As I turned around to distract my attention, she wiggled her fingertips and said,

“It is an herb.”

“huh?”

“Among the herbs used for trauma, there are white and red flowers. It is firmly rooted and has strong vitality, and the blooming period is also long, so you can enjoy it for a long time.”

“… It seems to be a familiar plant.”

“Yes, it is a herb that can often be found in the back mountain where the demons appear.”

“no wonder.”

“Did you say you wandered around the back mountain like that when you were young?”

“… Talk about when you were young.”

“Puff… .”

slap! Elric’s head turned.

Was it an illusion that I heard the laughter just before?

No, he must have been laughing.

Elric asked, feeling upset as to why he was expressionless.

“Is it funny?”

“no.”

“I think I heard laughter.”

“The wind is strong.”

“ma’am?”

“Now let’s step in. I have to finish my work, and since the head of the household is here, I think we can do it together.”

“ma’am?”

“There is a lot of paperwork to deal with.”

“… .”

She gently held her hand.

The stiff mane of the fur cape touched the back of his hand, tickling him.

Can’t I just smile one more time?

I want to see you smile brightly for once.

The regret was thicker than usual, but this knife-like woman seemed to have no intention of letting go.

“Come on.”

From noble mtl dot com

Elric had to suffer from letting go of his growing sadness.

*

“You’re so damn sick.”

Returning to the mansion, Danal looked at Kasha and his wife, who were clapping their hands together.

“Guys. look over there I’m doing the fucking plague of plagues.”

His face was full of charcoal soot.

His expression was tired, and his shoulders were heavier than ever.

It’s because of his blacksmith.

Also because of the blacksmith’s grandson.

– Guys! Can’t you straighten your back?

– Knights! Don’t you need seeds? No, more than that, what about the article? I’m training mana these days… .

How much did you suffer?

It was the same with other Wolyoungs.

“Captain, is this correct?”

“Can’t we just run away now?”

“The people we deserve to be treated like this… .”

“Right.”

Danal laughed blankly and dismissed their words.

“Are you our escaped assassin?”

What does it mean that he turned his back on Wolyeong and committed himself to Kasha?

It means that he is a traitor who leaked Wolyeong’s secret to Kasha.

Running away like this and living a wandering life?

There was no way it would succeed.

The main body of Wolyeong will go in pursuit.

Even if that wasn’t the case, Kasha might have rushed to block the mouths of those who knew who she was.

Either way it’s terrible.

It’s better to hide behind the tiger’s back.

Because I can block Wolyoung and receive Kasha’s protection.

Danal said while looking at his weak-willed subordinates.

“If you run away, what can you guys do?”

“… .”

“What can you guys do?”

“… .”

“We can’t do anything, you guys.”

There were dew in Danal’s eyes when he said that.

At that moment, the subordinates also shed tears.

It is the position of Dongbyun Sangryeon, and also the position of the community of destiny.

The former Wolyeong and the current Portman family’s prospective knights were growing in unity today as well.

“We only have each other. know?”

“It always has been.”

Wolyeong hugged each other.
