Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 738



Chapter 738

If someone asked Jin to choose a word that represented the person Eldmia, Jin could have chosen two without a moment’s hesitation.

Truth and Revenge·

Rather than talking around the corner, avoiding the answer, or twisting the words cleverly to cause the other person to misunderstand, I never lie about even trivial matters or light jokes.

If you didn’t do anything wrong, you will definitely get revenge.

Since he already knew the principle of that behavior well, which he didn’t even try to hide, Jin felt a cold sweat run down his back from the moment Eldmia called the little girl standing next to him a princess, and he had to think about where the most soundproof place would be.

The problem was that this was not as easy as it sounded. There was no way that an ordinary worker in Ogwen could have a secret room that could completely keep the story he was telling with the princess of the empire confidential.

This was something Eldmia also agreed to, and in the end, the two of them wrapped their heads around each other and decided to head to Eldmia’s cabin to visit their parents’ graves.

“That’s a very good idea… Okay, let’s go.”

“Is that okay? It’s a bit far, so I’ll have to go by horseback.”

“No matter how weak your body is, it’s not to that extent···”

And in the process, Jin unintentionally noticed a strange atmosphere.

You don’t feel that distant from the Iron-Blooded Princess of the Empire…? You didn’t even feel distant from the woman next to her named Cheryl, but that was just the beginning.

“···? Why are you looking at me like that? Was there something you wanted to ask me too?

“No, there’s nothing. Let’s go quickly. I’ll just borrow the horse from Herekson for a moment.”

“Herexon? Shepherd Herexon?”

“Now I am Herexon, the stable keeper. As soon as I saw the carriage business targeting adventurers heading to the dungeons was going well, I sold all my sheep and bought some land.”

“He may be crazy, but he was a crazy guy with a lot of business acumen. He must have made some money.”

“If you ask the grooms in Ogwen where they can take good care of their horses, they will tell you that it is the Wool Stables in Herexon. Lately, they say they even take care of the lord’s horse.”

“It’s clear that he traded his talent for making money for his talent for naming things.”

Despite the fact that they were talking about trivial things among their hometown friends and not paying any attention at all, the two girls were concentrating on the conversation with their ears perked up. It was easy to see that they were enjoying just seeing Eldmia, who was talking to Jin, in a different way than usual, and that they were concentrating not only on the content of the conversation but also on the content of the conversation.

“You’re also a terrible naming expert.”

“How can you put my clever naming method, including wordplay, on the same level as Herexon’s naming method, which is just a bunch of sloppy naming methods···”

Sending a honey-dripping gaze while lightly scolding others.

“Then most of the people in Ogwen know···?”

“Not anymore, but back then, if you didn’t know me in Ogwen, you were an outsider.”

No matter how you look at it, the princess, who speaks with a delay in her words and actions while hiding her original noble speech, shows great interest in Eldmia’s past.

At this point, not knowing is like being an idiot… The Eldmia that Jin remembers was a man who had all his other abilities leveled up but was oblivious to others, so he wasn’t sure about this situation.

“Brother, what is your relationship with those people?”

So, as soon as I got out of the city gates and borrowed a horse for free from Herexon, I just asked him outright:

“That’s what you’re asking about? Not about Ash?”

“I already knew it when I told Michelle. You don’t lie, do you, brother?”

“Oh, it’s like that again.”

Jin muttered, “I’m done for,” and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, but even though he had already figured out the answer, and even though he had deduced a truth that would shock the world, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

A considerable amount of time has passed, and now the boy has risen from the sole survivor of a nameless village to the position of a warrior in a flash, and I couldn’t help but laugh at how consistent he is.

“Why are you laughing…? Did you notice even though I didn’t say anything?”

“The fact that you already have a concubine, including the Iron-Blooded Princess? Is that something to laugh about? It’s something to be surprised and shocked by. I just suddenly laughed because I thought that you really haven’t changed at all.”

In Ladan, the value of nobility is higher than that of nobility. Nobility can be adorned as much as you want with money, but nobility is considered to be something that is innate or can only be acquired through continuous effort.

That is why nobles try to prove that they and their descendants are born with outstanding character. They buy luxury goods, hold banquets including commoners, and gladly invite travelers, provide them with rooms, and provide them with food, clothing, and shelter. It is for this reason.

Of course, not all nobles who act like that are noble. The mask that is forced on will eventually come off.

No matter how good-willed and mission-driven a custom or culture may be, it eventually fades over time.

“Do you remember when I first came here?”

“Remember, it’s not that common to see someone lying around with a look of bereavement, not caring if dirt gets in their eyes.”

Was that so? When I heard it, it really seemed like that. Jin continued talking, laughing as he realized that the soreness in his eyes for a while was not due to fatigue but due to physical factors, and he thought that he remembered such trivial things well, and gave an evaluation that he had surprisingly accurate insight.

“A look of bereavement… I think that’s an accurate expression. I came all the way across the sea to Ogwen, determined to survive, but when I heard that it was all for nothing, I really lost my motivation.”

“Why are you talking about the past? Have you had a change of heart?”

“I don’t know about that yet, but honestly, since your love life is such a secret, wouldn’t it be better for you to know at least one of my secrets?”

“It’s okay because no matter where I go I feel like I’ll be treated like a crazy person.”

“ha ha ha·”

It is true, the vagrants and the minstrels might be dazzled, but who would believe it to be true?

Still, Jin thought that all of this was an opportunity and a connection, so he decided to say what his heart told him to do.

“My original destination was not Ogwen, but the village where my brother lived.”

“···Huh? Our town?”

“Yes, to be more precise, I was on my way to see my brother’s father. He was my godfather.”

He was the only one I could trust among the few people who could prove my identity.

“I am actually a member of the Ladan royal family. Your father was once a member of our royal guard.”

“······Huh?”

Jin met Eldmia’s gaze, which seemed to be looking at him with an expression that seemed to say that he couldn’t understand for the time being, and brought up a story that had been buried for a long time.

“Your father’s name is not Ladan Ega. His original name is Rayehdan Yeriega. He is a famous self-made man who rose from an ordinary hunter to a member of the royal guard without any background. He is recorded as the founder of the Yeriega family, so strictly speaking, your older brother is a member of the noble family of Ladan…”

“Wait, wait! Aren’t you just casually spilling the secret of my birth? Really? Are you sure you didn’t do anything wrong?”

Eldmia was unusually flustered, and the other two were equally shocked, but Jin shrugged his shoulders confidently, as that didn’t change the facts.

“Really. You even left a letter asking me to come visit you sometime.”

Of course, from Rayehdan’s perspective, it would have been just a joke. How could a royal family member, and the only heir to the royal family, go to see a former bodyguard who had abandoned his duty and even turned his back on his country and left for the sea? When he received the letter, the former king also laughed it off as a joke typical of Rayehdan.

At that time, I never dreamed that it would turn into my last hope and then fade away in vain.

“···Wait a minute. Are you the successor who left that house?”

“There are a lot of misunderstandings out there, but yes, that’s right, I am Eugene Vie Sibylla Ahradan, the sole heir to the Royal House of Radan.”

It was so strange to say his real name after such a long time. He had been living as Eugene for over ten years, but Jin, who he had known for less than half that time, had become more familiar to him.

“But it’s a misnomer to say I left home. I ran away because my life was threatened amidst intrigue and plots. Come to think of it, it was really dangerous back then. Why else would I have thought of coming all the way here?”

“Uh… That… I think it must have been very difficult for our father? In the palace intrigue of Radan? How could he be of any help?”

“Oh, I guess the expression I just used is a bit weak and may be difficult to understand. The master is not just famous for being self-made, he is a kind of legend among the common people.”

In order to stop the threat to the royal family of Ladan, he displayed his abilities and rose up to accomplish his goal, and at the same time, he gave up all honor and status and disappeared like the wind, the desert falcon Rayehdan.

“When the royal family is in danger, the falcon will soar again. It’s a story that even a beggar knows. In the first place, how can an ordinary guard become the prince’s godfather?”

“That’s… my father?”

“Yes, wouldn’t it be okay to consider this as sharing a secret with each other?”

It was an interesting reaction

The person concerned frowned and questioned, while the two women nearby accepted it indifferently, saying, “Oh, I see.”
