Chapter 535

#535. isn’t it too much?

“Why is that?”

[…Wait, something crawled into my clothes.]

“Is it an insect again?”

[Hmm.]

Rose put on a puzzled expression.

Of course, being a sword master doesn’t mean that bugs will avoid you on their own.

But it was strange that he, who wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow even if he was hit by a knife, was only agitated enough to be bitten by an insect.

[Anyway, the situation here is better than I thought.]

Whether you know her question or not.

Limon said suddenly.

[This is all because the Liberation Brigade showed off the resurrected Sword Master early. If I had used them while hiding them, I would have been able to ignore the justification.]

A kind word that seemed to reassure myself on purpose.

however.

Why?

The reason why those words feel like trying to turn the conversation around hastily.

[Instead, since the establishment of the World Federation has accelerated that much… Um. It will be more annoying later on.]

And another one.

Sometimes the body trembles.

Your voice gets a little muffled.

The reason why the eyes are shaking strangely.

[Anyway, it’s fortunate for now.]

“….”

[Count?]

Maybe it’s just a mood.

Or is there another reason.

Rose, who was staring at Limon to find the answer, suddenly opened her mouth.

“You wear earrings.”

[Ah yes.]

A gold necklace.

Bracelets with gems, etc.

Fidgeting with earrings with red diamonds that stand out among all kinds of accessories.

Limon looked away.

[…It’s a gift from the Pharaoh.]

“…Hasneti seems to be treating it well.”

[Well, I’m the Pharaoh’s concubine, at least formally.]

“Is it formal?”

Rose wiggled her horse’s tail.

It wasn’t just because Hasneti questioned whether he could deal with Limon only as a formality.

It’s embarrassing to dress up.

Limon slightly averted his eyes.

Uncharacteristically, a strangely confused look.

In addition, the lightly reddish brown skin stands out bewitchingly by the thin clothes and fancy accessories.

It automatically catches the eye.

Tighten your heart a little.

Rose involuntarily opened her mouth.

“Can I go see you for a moment, Swordsman?”

[No!]

“…”

[No, the Count knows that too, right? It’s dangerous if we move hastily now.]

“Yes, I’m sorry for being forced.”

Rose smiled bitterly as she saw Limon scratching his cheek and persuading him after answering in surprise.

Currently, the Seven Dragons are in an exhibition system.

It was not a time when even Rose, who could cross space, was free to leave.

Especially if it was to secretly meet Limon.

However, because of the urge to see him in person, smell his scent, and share his body temperature with him.

and unexplained anxiety.

Reflecting on the thought that it would be okay if it was only for a moment, Rose calmly opened her mouth.

“If you still need me, call me. If you call, I will come to you immediately.”

[…Don’t forget to call me right away if you think the Count is in danger.]

“Of course.”

Because she is the Blue Dragon Princess,

she can visit him at any time.

Just call me whenever you need comfort, not when you need strength.

Rose said with a light smile and said goodbye to him one last time.

“Then, please stay bye… Limon.”

[Yes, the Count too.]

That was the end.

Limon turned off the video before we could say hello.

It took a while for him to make an expression mixed with regret and suspicion at the last appearance, which seemed strangely nervous and rushed.

Rose immediately shook her head.

‘It must be because he was busy.’

The entire Seven Dragons Society is in a wartime system, but Africa is currently at the forefront.

It was natural for the busy Limon to be pressed for time just by being on guard against the World Federation and the peacekeepers.

Even though I knew the fact, I couldn’t stand the longing, so I just contacted you.

In that sense, I was lucky.

I wanted to hear at least his voice, but through the hologram, I could see Limon’s cute side.

‘…I should thank Hasneti.’

I’d rather not bother.

I thought I couldn’t help.

Recalling Hasneti’s willingness to use the virtual conference system, Rose reflected on her narrow-mindedness.

And I thought while fiddling with the ring on my finger.

I must pay off this debt.

* * *

“Whoa….”

Meanwhile, at that time.

Limon sighed.

It just went unnoticed because of the balm that was applied to the skin.

The cold sweat that covered his entire body before he knew it showed how flustered Limon had been and how relieved he was now.

back.

But that’s for a while.

To the stimulus that was suddenly transmitted to the back.

He flinched again.

And, feeling fortunate that the video call had already ended, I looked back with resentment.

“…Pharaoh, isn’t this a bit too much?”

“What do you mean?”

“What is it? I am talking about this now.”

Because only Limon’s appearance was reflected through the hologram filter, Rose could not be seen.

That is, sitting in a chair made of rubies.

With Limon sitting on his lap.

The one who watched it from behind the whole time he communicated with Rose.

Hasneti asked with a cold face as always.

“Are there any problems?”

“So you don’t think there will be?”

Limon raised his eyes.

Suddenly, he reached under his clothes and stroked his slender back, scratched his thighs with his fingernails, and so on.

How much I was embarrassed by Hasneti’s sudden action during the video call and how many times I had to suppress my voice.

No matter how Noh Kang-ho he is…

No, that’s why I couldn’t stand the embarrassment even more.

“is it.”

But Hasneti showed no signs of apologetic.

He just stared at Limon sitting on his lap and tried to operate the communication device again.

“…what are you doing?”

“It looks like you couldn’t talk to Rose freely because I didn’t show up, so I’ll let you communicate freely this time.”

“To communicate with the Count again like this? No filter this time?”

“Isn’t that what you want?”

Limon hardened.

Some time ago, thanks to the filter, I somehow got over it.

But what if you could see him sitting on Hasneti’s lap?

Could Rose not know what happened earlier?

And if you know, can you stand it?

No matter how much I thought about it, I could only see the future where Rose would appear here and wield a sword.

“Haa, I was wrong, so excuse me.”

Limon raised the white flag.

Because I couldn’t let the princesses of the seven dragons fight each other again in this situation.

However, Hasneti did not accept the surrender.

I just asked quietly, with one hand still on the communication device.

“What did you do wrong?”

“The bites of the Pharaoh were called insect marks.”

“Is that all?”

“You didn’t decline when the Count said you could call him anytime?”

“and?”

“You said that it was the Pharaoh’s formal concubine…?”

“…”

“…what is the answer?”

When her hands became especially rough, I looked at Limon, who finally asked a question in his unchanging gaze even after talking about all the conversations.

Hasneti slowly raised her hand.

And tearing off the bandage that was stuck on the nape of Limon’s neck.

whispered

“-All.”

“…”

“Hiding my traces.”

“….”

“Although he is my concubine, I am close enough to contact another woman.”

“….”

“And being too good at lying.”

He chewed the teeth marks left on the nape of Limon’s neck again to make them more vivid.

Scratching the skin, leaving a slight red mark.

At the end of whispering in the ear where the earrings hung.

Hasneti finished.

“Don’t even think about lying to me. I have no intention of being fooled as easily as Rose.”

“Don’t worry, I don’t really want to fool the Pharaoh…”

TDD.

Limon couldn’t finish his speech.

It was because before that, a short mechanical sound had been heard from the communication device attached to the armrest.

When Limon broke out in a cold sweat, knowing what the sound meant as he had already heard it.

Hasneti checked the message on the communication device and spoke quietly.

“This time, Ainsha-kun.”

“Hey Pharaoh? Come to think of it, don’t we have something to do? The peacekeepers must be…”

“Take it.”

“….”

As always, a muddy voice.

However, it seems that he is going to teach the reckless concubine, who has been bewitched by other women, what theft is.

With hot eyes that do not allow objections.

Again, while manipulating the filter function on the imaging device, feeling the hot hand digging through the clothes.

Limon couldn’t help but sigh as the ground was gone.

“Is Egypt really involved in the peacekeeping force?”

“This nonsense…!”

After Egypt announced extensively that it even signed an agreement with the World Federation.

African countries turned upside down.

It was because it was unimaginable that Hasneti declared cooperation with the peacekeeping force and even signed an agreement.

Still, the vassal state of Egypt was cured.

After all, they were in a position where they had no choice but to do what Egypt told them to do, and it was fortunate that they did not have to fight peacekeepers in that respect.

The problem is other countries.

In particular, they were military governments that waged war a little more frequently and excessively looted and set fires.

Even a three-year-old could have known that once Egypt had missed the target of the peacekeepers, they would be next.

So they had to choose.

surrender to Egypt.

surrender to the World Federation.

Or just run away.

I don’t even dare to fight against Egypt and the 7 guilds alone.

The fact that the two had to deal with the united peacekeeper was a battle that was already decided by anyone.

But…

“I wonder who the damn one will be obedient to!”

“What kind of peace is peace for those who are 7th guild, Nabal, and have no choice but to exploit Africa?”

“This country is mine. Even if I die, I can’t hand it over!”

Not everyone is rational.

Chiefs who value wealth and power over life willingly chose to confront the peacekeepers.

Especially a few months ago.

The experience of defeating Egypt united in the name of the Continental Alliance gave them reckless courage again.

So it was.

Abuja, a large city with a population of 1 million.

The reason Pascal, Duke of Plague, had no choice but to frown before the event.

“It’s a street fight… troublesome thing.”

Pascal clicked his tongue.

At best, they signed an agreement with Egypt and brought in peacekeepers.

This is because the military government, which was first selected as the target of suppression, chose to fortify and hold on to the city, putting it in a difficult position in many ways.

Pushing troops into a fortified city would cause great damage to the citizens.

Then the name of the peacekeeping force was bound to be ruined.

Unfortunately, his skill was not useful in this situation, befitting his nickname as the Great Duke of Plague.

“I can’t help it.”

Pascal sighed.

And reluctantly, he turned his head.

“Please.”

“What are you asking me to draw? That’s what we came here to do in the first place.”

Billy smiled and nodded.

And asked Joan of Arc, who was messing with potatoes next to her.

“Would you like to be a senior?”

“You want to give in, junior?”

“If it were a wilderness, I would have done it, but that’s a city, right? There’s nothing I can’t do, but the power control is a bit tricky.”

“Well, it’s a bit too much for me to do alone. I think it will take some time.”

“Is that so?”

Even if it’s annoying, I’ll go out on my own.

Or would it be better to leave it to Joan of Arc, even if it takes time?

When Billy scratches his head and ponders.

A gentle voice was heard.

“I will.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“…a priest?”

“Fortunately, I have a lot of experience with this sort of thing.”

“Hmm…I’m asking just in case, but you know you can’t kill everyone, right?”

“Be at ease.”

The brown-skinned monk did not erase his smile even after receiving Billy’s shy gaze.

leaving the army behind.

taking a step alone

He just spoke in a soft voice.

“As you know, I am a pacifist.”
