Chapter 25.1: Tair Bamon (2)
At my words, the knight’s movements stopped.
He glanced at Asher and me with an expression that looked like he would break out in a cold sweat at any moment, then glanced at the woman again.
“What are you doing?! That bastard called me vulgar! Kill him quickly!”
Shouting loudly, she seemed to have finally lost her mind. It looked like a child throwing a tantrum.
It’s annoying, really.
I said;
“If it sounds like empty words, pull out your sword. Or take that noisy thing and go away.”
The knight glared at me, then finally removed his hand from the hilt of his sword.
He seemed to have realized the difference in his skills after directly competing with Asher.
Instead, he opened his mouth and spoke in a menacing voice.
“I don’t know who the young master is, but he’s making a big mistake. She’s the daughter of the mayor of this city…”
I didn’t reply, but waved my hand at Asher.
As she brought her hand to the hilt of her sword, the knight fell silent and shut his mouth.
“This…!”
The woman, who was upset at the sight, trembled as if she couldn’t overcome her anger, and she slapped the knight on the cheek.
The knight just silently let her hit him as she slapped his face several times.
The woman who had taken her anger out like that turned her gaze back and glared at me ferociously.
“You’re really going to kill me. Do you know who my father is? He’s the mayor of this city. This whole city belongs to my family.”
“…”
“I’ll make sure you pay the price for fooling around with that lowly tongue. You’ll never be able to walk on two legs again without crawling between my legs and begging.”
Then she turned around and strode out of the store.
Her escort knight also chased her out, and the restaurant fell silent. All eyes were focused on this direction.
Ha…
That’s really great.
Admiring how the other could be that big of an idiot, I looked at the place where she had disappeared.
Baros also looked at the door from which she came out with his cold, sunken eyes, and spoke cautiously to me.
“Just give me a word and I’ll meet the mayor of this city in person. That cheeky bitch…”
“Don’t trouble yourself.”
This was not my territory, so I didn’t want to make a fuss.
It could reveal my whereabouts to the other Lords, and if that happened, someone might unnecessarily take an interest in me.
But since it happened like this, could I do anything?
I knew from the moment I intervened, things would get annoying.
Thinking of seeing the face of the mayor who raised that great idiot tomorrow, I soon turned off my nerves.
“Are you okay?”
Asher raised the fallen employee.
The manager and other employees who had been watching approached them with belatedly apologetic faces.
She handed them over to them, and Asher returned to her seat and sat down with her head bowed shyly.
The man who had been standing awkwardly came this way.
He was the man who was threatened by that crazy woman, having his wrist cut off and all. Which didn’t happen because Asher intervened.
“Hey, thank you. Young master has helped me to survive. I almost lived as a disabled for the rest of my life.”
I nodded my head as I saw him conveying his thanks with a smile on his face.
Judging by his attire, he was a man who looked like an ordinary traveler.
Still, he was the only one among those who watched the mad woman’s atrocities and tried to stop it, so his personality seemed pretty good. I was not blaming those who didn’t step up since it’s understandable if they couldn’t.
…?
But wait a minute…
Having felt something familiar, I inspected the man’s face.
It’s the same feeling as when I first found Asher.
When I stared at him, the man also looked at me with puzzled eyes.
I asked him.
“What’s your name?”
“Yes?”
He seemed taken aback for a moment, but then responded with a laugh again.
“My name is Lian, young master.”
Lian.
Only then did an NPC character appear in my memory.
A blond, green-eyed young man with the same appearance as the one in front of me.
Hah…
Surprised inwardly but also feeling awed at this bizarre coincidence, I repeated his name in my mind.
Not the pseudonym he just mentioned, but the real name he’s hiding.
Tair Bamon.
The youngest prince of the neutral country, Earth Hill.
He was not to the extent of being the main character in the world of RaSa, but he was a person who could be said to be the main character among the supporting actors.
The episode of Earth Hill’s Neutral Country related to him was one of my favorite main stories in the game.
Yes, since it was five years ago, he had not yet returned to the kingdom and was wandering around Calderic…
“I… the dish is ready.”
The waiter came to the table holding the finished dish.
The fried chicken pieces that looked appetizing came out in a basket full of them.
I stared at the chicken, then at the table where Lian was sitting, then back to him.
And I asked
“This is also a fate. Shall we dine together?”
“…Yes?”
What kind of nonsense is this? – That was probably the guy was thinking as his eyes widened.
Asher and Barros, who were sitting in the seats in front of me, also looked at me with curious eyes, probably curious why I was doing this.
But this was a good opportunity
I wanted to have a conversation with him.
It was because I thought that there might be something to be gained from this relationship that happened by chance.
