TL-Mechatronic

Once they attack us, I will make sure that it is not us that will be defeated.

Jean said with a serious face.

“When we get back, I’ll lessen your training time.”

“Deal.”

“What?”

“No, it’s good.” Nina laughed.

Whether Nina was right or wrong, there will not be an assault until the next day. Both removed and robbed the expensive items left in the barracks. Nina said she would like to give some to Adrian, and packed two or three of the smooth leopard skins.

“What a waste of this barracks….”

Jean touched the thick tent with his hands and sighed.

“We can come to pick it up later. It’s our land anyway.”

At Nina’s words, he smiled wide and jumped on the unicorn. The two unicorns were loaded with tons of things, but even with that weight, the unicorns didn’t even budge.

The two, who put up the Black Hawk flag on the plain, returned to the Black Shield Castle. In the meantime, the victory news spread throughout the plain.

Even though Count Rava tried to hush the rumors, everyone knew that the Duke of Luverne had won the Match. However, ‘All of them were defeated by one person’. Was the only rumor no one believed.

The nobles paid more attention to the Duke of Luverne, who regained the Great Plains. Count Rava was also angry. He was now pressuring the Duke of Luverne to pay his debts in full immediately.

Adrian sent a letter in elegant writing saying, ‘Wouldn’t it be until next year’s exchange?’

In short, it means, “But don’t you still have to restore your honor?”

It is not known what kind of opinions came and went within the Count, but in the letter that returned, [Next year will be the last.) was written on it.

This means that they earned another year.

Adrian buried himself deep in the chair. The leopard leather covered in it was soft and smooth.

And the return of Nina’s party was warmly welcomed.

“Well done, Nina.’

When Nina offered the leather saying, “This is the prize that I got for you, young master.” Adrian burst out laughing. It felt like a primitive tribe that succeeded in hunting and returned to share the spoils of war.

Spoils of war.

“Yes, let’s just say this is the first trophy.

Finally, the Dukedom of Luverne has regained its original form. But the joy was brief. The administrative power had been delegated for eight years, and the work was hectic.

Adrian clung to the papers all day except for a short nap when he closed his eyes. It was hard enough that even Louis became worried about his health.

Nina snapped Adrian’s hand when he was about to pick up the next document.

“Nina? When did you get here?”

She grinned as Adrian looked back in wonder.

“It’s grave if you don’t even know I’m here.”

Adrian said, rubbing between his brows.

“I’m just concentrating.” “What did you say to me before? Didn’t you say I didn’t have to hurry? I think you really need a break. You have been at it for the whole three days nonstop. Take a break with me today.”

Adrian had no choice but to follow her as soon as she grabbed his arm and pulled it, saying she had already prepared everything. She climbed up to the end of the castle and opened the watchtower door.

A picnic basket woven from rattan was placed on the narrow watchtower.

“Now, sit down, Young Master.”

He sat down as Nina tapped the blanket on the floor.

She took out some light food and tea from the basket and finally, two garlands made of wildflowers. Nina put one in her head, and the other on Adrian’s head.

Adrian burst into laughter at the wildflower garland

“Because we can’t go out now, let’s just feel the mood, of a picnic.”

At Nina’s words, he laughed even more.

She made a flower crown. She learned it from her brother when she was young. Whenever she went out, Nina would make a flower crown or a flower bracelet for him.

He always reverently received her garland, feeling like a king in a coronation.

She smiled and called Frost to make the cup cold, enough to rustle.

Adrian, taking the cold tea she handed over, looked at Nina wearing a flower crown full of yellow flowers. Nina pointed at the sky with her finger.

“The blue sky, the cool wind, the glorious sun. People need some time to relax, right?”

Looking up, following her words, the sky was surprisingly blue, and the clouds were blooming as if they were showing how_high the sky was. Leaning against the cold watchtower wall, Adrian cooled his head.

“Nina La Dell.”

“Yes, would you like a biscuit? I also prepared jam.”

When she was prepared to spread it with her hands, Adrian held a butter knife to her and said.

“You’re right.”

Sun, water, air. And you.

Everything he needs to live as a person is here

“Right? You need some free time, right? Well, it’s not for me to say since I was the one forced to take a leave from you.”

Nina handed him a biscuit laden with butter and jam.

It was not difficult to find wheat in the Duchy, it was only difficult to find it in the castle. Extreme strictness on the financial budget was the cause of the food, shortage in the duchy.

“It wasn’t enough for everyone to eat white bread.

After picking up the biscuit and tea, Nina got up and sat on the edge of the lookout. She shook her hands in the air to drop the crumbs and enjoyed the wind.

Her pigtails flapped gently in the wind.

She wore a top embroidered on the edge of the neck collar, and a comfortable outfit with a waistband and trousers. Nina said, tapping her knee lightly.

“Come on, lean on, and be silly.”

“So I can do whatever I want?”

Adrian replied with a smile, and Nina said, “That’s it,” and proudly told him to come to her. But he didn’t move. Nina sighed and got up from her seat.

“I can’t help it. I’m doing this only because it’s Young Master.”

Nina went to his side and sat down on the watchtower.

“Hurry up and lean on me.”

When Adrian saw Nina with sparkling eyes, he turned, and leaned against her leg. When he looked up, Nina smiled and reached out her hand to create shade around his eyes.

Time passed slowly.

There was no noise above the watchtower except for the fluttering of flags.

A feeling of floating in the sky, wrapped around his body.

Nina’s voice was low and soft. All they were talking about was things that were light enough to just pass by his ears, nevertheless, they were all shiny like wool in the pouring sand.

He didn’t have to listen to it nervously, nor to think about it seriously. The tension that had been tightening his whole body was being relieved.

The string of nerves, which had become tense, became loose.

He reached out and pulled her hand, which was shadowing him. Nina’s upper body tilted forward as her arm was pulled.

They even faced each other so closely that they could see the iris pattern of each other’s eyes.

“Nina.”

“Yes.”

“Nina.”

“Yes.”

“Nina.”

Nina smiled and answered again, “Yes.” like she was willing to answer a hundred and a thousand times, Adrian closed his eyes. It was difficult to see a straight smile of hers. When he closed his eyes, Nina raised her body.

Nina knew well that Adrian was only being playful and coquettish. She stroked his hair and lifted her eyes to look at the Violet forest beyond.

The watchtower where the two of them were currently at felt like the end of the world.

“Let’s come up often, Young Master.” Nina muttered. “Yes.”

She laughed when a small short answer came back.
