“Huh? M-Me?”
What did I do?
“Did you not seal the broken barrier with the spirit? Thanks to that, the pollution disappeared, so all we had to do was hunt the raging Bellacs.”
“Oh, I see.”
Nina recalled the seal engraved on the barrier. It must have been the moment she made Sun come down.
‘I got help from them in many ways.
“The Bellacs didn’t come around the barrier, so we used it as a base and hunted them down one by one.”
Louis said while flipping his lowly tied hair behind his back.
“We’ve passed the critical point of death many times. It was like those days before His Grace succeeded his position.”
“I’m glad everyone survived.”
Nina sighed.
Jean reached out and ruffled Nina’s head
“The same is true for you. What? Why is your hair so soft?”.
“There’s a story behind this. More than that. So what happened next?”
Adrian gave a brief explanation.
“The plague broke out.”
“The plague?”
Huh? This is something I didn’t know.
Since the story begins with the appearance of the heroine Fiona, Adrian’s past was somewhat a mystery
Except for the big things that had an effect on the original plot line, Nina didn’t know what had happened to him.
“It raged all over the empire. The old and the weak were the most victimized.”
Unusually enough, none of the Dark Knights, who were stationed at the door during the battle against Bellacs, were infected.
Doctor Kirill’s management was also thorough.
The plague struck the Duchy of Luverne, and both the Duke and the little master died of illness.
The only legitimate successor was Adrian.
Adrian, who was an illegitimate child but was listed in the Duke’s family register, had the right to succeed him.
“And then?”
When Nina asked about the details of the story, Jean scratched his chin.
“Well, it was crazy. Before the prayers even finished after the funeral, the Duchess allied herself with the Duke’s brother, claiming that his Excellency had poisoned and killed them.”
“It was a headache trying to leave the castle.”
Louis recalled with a bitter smile.
Adrian was the only one who seemed to be aware of the situation beforehand.
Thanks to him calling the Dark Knights nearby in advance, the party was able to escape safely.
And internal strife broke out on the Duchy.
Adrian and the Duke’s younger brother fought for the succession.
Most of the vassals were on the side of the Duke’s younger brother, supported by the Duchess.
It was a fight that seemed to have no chances of victory because Adrian had much less power.
But he never lost.
Unless fleeing by strategically retreating, he always
won.
As if he easily took a white stone from the ground, Adrian easily handled the rebels, an action that seemed to be natural just as breathing.
It was a cruel and thorough victory.
Just by seeing their flag, they’re hands and feet trembled that they couldn’t hold the spear properly.
Half a year.
After only half a year, the infighting was settled, and Adrian rose to the top as the new Duke.
At that time, Louis felt both admiration and fear.
It felt like riding on the back of an unstoppable fierce tiger.
A fierce tiger that runs endlessly until the moments it reaches its own destruction.
‘But….. Louis glanced at Nina.
Wouldn’t it be okay to let go of her worries a little now?
Nina sighed helplessly.
“There really were a lot of things that happened without me.”
She was really sorry for not being together when he needed her. However, she was glad he didn’t hurt his family with his own hands.
She was happy that the future she wanted to change was changing
That’s what she thought….
‘What?’
As we entered the crowded street, she noticed the bumpy road.
‘What is this?
People’s clothes were also shabby.
Suddenly, Nina became anxious and turned her gaze back and forth.
“Is my vegetable garden done?’
I talked a lot with Adrian about how to grow the garden.
“No, there was a civil war, this isn’t the time to care, about the garden.’
Thinking so, Nina saw the Black Shield Castle and covered her face with both hands.
“Oh, my god. We’re poor.’
.*.
There were only two castles in the Luverne Duchy, one is the Black Shield Castle near the Violet Forest and the other is the Silver Lake Castle in the center of the territory.
And since the latter was the abode of the Duke, so few Lords stayed in the Black Shield Castle like Adrian
The Black Shield Castle was similar to a battle fortress, had small windows, and it was old and had some ruined parts.
It was filled with stains that would never disappear even if you rubbed it with a brush of pig hair.
The window frames were also dirty. It was a place where stickiness, and slime, remained and could not be removed no matter how much you wiped it.
The inside was simple and almost empty.
No people, no furniture, nothing.
Nina was embarrassed because she felt like a caveman living on a stone floor.
“Was the castle originally this empty?”
“They’re just making the place crowded.”
As she looked at Adrian’s frowning face, Nina understood what he meant.
“He must’ve not like the interior….. Adrian sure has meticulous taste. Right.’
She guess he would rather rip off all the parts and put them in the warehouse than see something he doesn’t like.
The fight for succession was squashed in half a year, but the post-war construction and organization would
have taken a longer time. There was no time, no money, and no room for interior decoration.
“My God! Nina!”
Doctor Kirill opened her mouth when she saw Nina. Nina grinned and said.
“No dissecting.”
“That’s very unfortunate.”
Kirill strode up and said,
“Let’s have a checkup first.”
After the examination, Kirill said that she was very healthy, and Nina was barely able to free herself from the doctor’s hands.
In the meantime, a drinking party was prepared and the party gathered and had a cozy commemoration
As it was literally in a bar, it was not too formal to be called a banquet
Meanwhile, Nina looked at the castle and the attendants at work.
“The population of the people was small, the castle was cold, and there’s really nothing inside it.
Of course, it was at the drinking table that she felt most strongly the level of bankruptcy.
“Why are the snacks mainly made of potatoes? Mainly POTATOES!?’
It’s not like there was no meat, but there were more potatoes than anything else.
Potatoes are food eaten by farmers and not by nobility. Thus, potatoes were a valuable crop that was not included in the tax.
When Nina was young, her sister and Nina used to farm potatoes instead of her brother, who was busy farming wheat.
“But why does a potato come out on the Duke’s meal? Of course, potatoes are also delicious…….
Nina told her story while eating a similar dish of shredded potato pancakes.
Everyone opened their eyes wide in incredulity when Nina said she met The Spirits face to face, and even got her body repaired, Kirill declared that they would do an “extra-check” one more time.
Jean said with a strange face.
“That’s why it was strangely light.”
“What was?”
“Oh, you’re strangely light. Not like a human being, But it’s understandable if it’s because the Spirit has healed you.”
“Am I light?”
When Nina asked Adrian, who sat next to her, he reached out and lifted her by the sides.
Even Nina herself was surprised.
“Huh?”
“It’s light.”
After Adrian said so, and put her down, Nina somehow became unhappy and got up from her seat.
“But I became stronger! I can even break the firewood with my bare hands! Now, I can even hold Young Master up.”
“I’ll pass.”
Nina, saddened by Adrian’s refusal, found a side table next to him.
It was an old and heavy-looking side table with bronze legs on a marble top.
“Look!”
Everyone admired when Nina lifted it up with one hand. Jean said while trembling.
“Wow, you can go join a circus and show your super strength.”
“You can swing it like this, like this, lightly.”
As she swung the side table while people scurried, away. Nina then put down the side table and said,
“But I think it’s not very efficient because once I use this strength I get very hungry….”
Then she ate the steamed potatoes in no time.
Kirill tilted her head in wonder.
“Do you have to eat as much as you use your energy? That’s interesting.”
Kirill reached out and patted Nina’s head.
“You had a hard time, kid.”
Nina sighed.
“I think you all suffered more than me.”
Tired of the internal strife and struggle, Jean smacked the table and said.
“It would be better to deal with Bellacs than to deal with those humans.”
