Don’t Run Away My Lord

Chapter 70

70 – She Came (8)

It was refreshing to not see that gloomy dragon anymore, but it also felt uneasy.

Ciliafari is a dragon whose mental state is difficult to say is normal.

But it is an ambiguous state that is not completely crazy.

Something may be going on in places you can’t see.

If you shoot a signal spell at the island…

No. I don’t know anything else, but I wouldn’t do as much as that.

She has shown Celia Paris a strong will that she will never return to the island, and she knows it.

She is obsessed with me and she must have realized that in order to get what she wants, she must never touch it.

If you gather your blood relatives to subdue me, it will truly be a catastrophe.

To Celia Paris, I am the glass on her head.

The moment you move your body even slightly, it falls and breaks.

But still… I wonder where and what kind of evil plan they are plotting…

* * * * *

After Cilia Paris disappeared, construction began on the lord’s castle.

It was something truly unusual: a steel structure was installed that protruded sharply diagonally from the ground at the bottom of the fence of Yeongju Castle.

She said it was to prepare for the black dragon that had recently appeared and disappeared in the lord’s castle, and the other vassals agreed that it was a good idea, so she approved it.

Do you think you can stop a dragon with just those thorns?

Of course not.

Liana is trying to prevent Ciliafari from coming back and standing around the castle again.

Should I call it strong, persistent, or thorough?

After the meeting, Keita quietly approached me.

“My lord, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“Let’s go to the office and talk.”

Keita entered the office and placed an anti-eavesdropping spell on the door.

This is a spell I used in the Barony of Gilan in the past to block the vibrations that come out when speaking, preventing the sound from leaking out.

“Don’t worry. The chamberlain went to a separate working meeting because of the construction budget.”

“Is that so…”

Keita sat down on the chair, somewhat relaxed.

“What’s going on?”

“I don’t know if it’s okay for me, a wizard, to say this…”

Keita, who hesitated, opened her mouth.

“Chief Chamberlain… I feel like it’s been too close these days.”

As she nodded to continue speaking, Keita lowered her head slightly.

“These days, I feel like the lord is not a lord, but the chamberlain is like a lord. I feel like the lord has already become a big lord… I’m sorry. I don’t mean that the lord will hand everything over to the chamberlain and do nothing. …”

“Yes, I know. What it means.”

“Yes…”

Keita swallowed her saliva and continued her words.

“Of course, the Chamberlain is smart and has the right sense of personal interests and interests. He is the perfect person to assist your lord. But… Ever since I came here, it seems like the chamberlain has been crossing the line. I’m sorry for saying this, but my lord. A treacherous wife who bewitches and manipulates from behind…”

“hahahahaha!”

I shouldn’t have laughed, but I burst out laughing.

A conniving wife, that was quite an appropriate metaphor.

At the sound of my laughter, Keita closed her mouth and shrugged her shoulders.

“Sorry. It was funny.”

“Ah, yes… Anyway… So, the lord will leave you alone like that…”

“What would you do?”

Keita seemed embarrassed by the reverse question and bobbed her head from side to side.

“Hmm… If it were me… I don’t know… I think I’d call him in first, scold him harshly, and if he doesn’t get better, I’d strip him of his position for a while. Since he’s a smart person, I’d rather not go to extremes and understand enough through conversation. Wouldn’t it?”

Not at all, Keita.

In fact, it is the opposite.

You can’t suppress Liana through conversation because she’s so smart.

That’s the same as asking the sword master to fight with swords.

“If I’m stupid enough to feel that way, the lord would have already put some kind of plan in place. But I’m so worried that I can’t sleep at night.”

“What are you worried about?”

“The territory is stabilizing, but I’m afraid there will be discord between the lord and the chamberlain.”

“Are you afraid that your nest will disappear?”

Keita’s face turned red as she got to the point.

Although Keita is young, she is a human from over 500 years ago.

Five hundred years is a short time for dragons, but for humans, it is a very, very distant past.

Keita, who came over from there, was lucky enough to become my subordinate and is now working as an exclusive magician for the lord’s castle.

But if we hadn’t met, we would have had a hard time adapting to the new world.

Just as I regard the territory as a nest, so will Keita.

So, you must be very worried at the thought that the territory may collapse.

It’s cute.

“Don’t worry. That won’t happen.”

“Then I’m glad…”

I smiled and moved my finger to disable the eavesdropping spell on the door.

Keita let out a short exclamation at that action.

I called the secretary in the annex and had her bring tea and snacks.

“So, Keita. Are you practicing magic a lot?”

“Thanks to the lord’s help, it has improved compared to before.”

Keita chanted something with a proud expression.

Then, with a pop-pap-bak sound, several luminous bodies simultaneously jumped out of both her hands.

Dozens of small luminous objects like fireflies slowly moved and became letters in the air. It was my name.

Moving multiple luminous bodies precisely is a level of magic that is above average.

This would have been impossible for the old Keita.

“You’re good.”

“Thank you.”

The secretary who brought the refreshments pursed her mouth in surprise when she saw the luminous object.

Then, the luminous bodies moved in a complex manner, creating another letter.

‘I’ll eat it deliciously.’

You’re cute, Keita.

* * * * *

The construction to strengthen Yeongju Castle’s defenses, promoted by Liana, has progressed steadily.

Iron structures were built like hedgehogs around the fence and in the courtyard, and large crossbows were installed on the spire and rooftop.

In addition, Liana trained her Keita to install warning magic here and there above the lord’s castle.

The iron structure is an obstacle that prevents the dragon from landing, and the large crossbow is for attack.

The alarm magic is designed to automatically sound when a dragon approaches.

It would be completely ineffective against dragons and fatal against humans.

At least they could be used by humans, so even if it cost money, they didn’t say anything.

“My lord.”

As I approached Liana, who was supervising her site, she greeted me with a smile.

“What do you think? How does Yeongju Castle look like an impregnable fortress?”

“It seems very effective and useless.”

Liana, who understood the meaning of my words, smiled.

“But our will will definitely be conveyed.”

“Are you talking about your will?”

Liana tilted her head.

“Are you saying it as if you are not a lord?”

“Well, of course, I’m not happy about the ciliafly coming back either. But my way of rejecting it is different from yours.”

“I don’t know what the difference is. In the end, both me and the lord are trying to kill that dragon.”

“I’m trying to kill cilia flies?”

Liana’s eyes were curved like a crescent moon.

“She only has eyes for Erga-sama, and when she uses her violence against the evil spirit woman who followed her here and tells her to go away, does that mean she’s not telling her to die in the end?”

Her words were very sharp.

“At that time, she seemed like a mentally unstable woman. She seemed to have an obsessive obsession with Ergan-sama. Now, that dragon only has Ergan-sama. But Ergan-sama rejected that woman. The reason for living. “They were forcibly deprived of their rights, but that’s not an attempt to kill them?”

“Liana. But Cilia Paris…”

“I know.”

Liana touched my cheek and spoke softly.

“I know, my lord. You can’t kill that dragon or accept it. That’s why I’m here.”

Her hand, which had been stroking her cheek, moved to the back of her neck and Liana hugged me.

“I will protect you.”

Liana whispered softly in my ear.

“Erga is mine… I won’t give it to anyone…”

“Liana…”

“Ever since you saved me in the desert… I decided to be with Erga for the rest of my life…”

“Me too. I want to be with you until you grow old and die. But.”

She slowly released Liana’s arms and pushed her away.

“That doesn’t make me your property.”

“I never thought about it like that.”

I responded with a smile to Liana’s innocent smile.

“Then it looks like you’re acting without even realizing it.”

“Oh, I see.”

For a very brief moment, an eerily cold aura passed by Liana’s face.

But it was really just a moment.

“Then how about doing it this way? I become the lord’s property.”

Liana added as we looked at each other in silence.

“Half of my body already belongs to you, my lord, right? I’m telling you this now, but no matter how close we are, we don’t touch each other’s breasts or kiss.”

“Then?”

“It’s something that can only be done between lovers or a married couple. In fact, didn’t the lord think of me as having that kind of relationship to some extent?”

Liana smiled coquettishly and suggested secretly.

“Do you want to mate with me all night tonight?”

“Mate…”

“Take me, my lord. I will become yours. Then you will have a reason to tell that b*tch, right? You broke off the engagement and brought in a new female. How do you feel?”

She answered Liana, her eyes shining with anticipation and desire.

“This is something I found out recently while researching the window pipe you made.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“They say you can do that as much as you want if you pay money, even if you’re not your lover or your wife.”

“Yes…? No way… I’m a prostitute…”

Liana’s voice began to tremble suddenly.

“I don’t mean that. But at least I’m trying to let you know that you won’t be able to make things go the way you want right now.”

“Ah… Yes… Uh… I understand…”

Looking at Liana’s eyes getting moist, she felt a little bad.

Even though she is beyond her limits these days, Liana is still her closest human being.

Let’s leave it at this.

This should be enough to keep Liana down for a while.
