TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter Thirty-Four: Temporary

"Roasted animals," I answered him habang nakatingin ako sa mga pagkain na nasa harapan ko at napalunok naman ako.

"Let's eat before the food gets cold," He said, kaya agad akong kinain ang nasa plato ko at tinikman ang mga iba't-ibang putahe na nasa harap ko.

"It seems like you didn't eat for how many days," He commented as he sips to his wine.

"Not really, it's just I miss this kind of food since all I have to eat are roasted wild animals in the forest," I said after I swallow the food in my mouth.

"How many days you are eating those?"

"It's been a year, I think," I said.

"A year... What a year?!" He said as he wipes his mouth since nailabas niya ang kanyang iniinom na wine.

"Yep, so thank you for feeding me," I said as I take a sip on my wine too.

"No need to thank me since it's not free, you need to pay for it," He said kaya napabuga ako sa iniinom ko at agad na lumingon sa kanya. I thought he changed a little since he didn't see me for years but I think it is really hard to change in just 2 years.

"What?!" I said to him but he just continues to eat as if I was not there.

"So, you have to work very since I am paying for you now," He said as he smirks at me. Really this guy is getting into my nerves but he has a point since I need money right now.

" Fine," I said as I continue drinking since it is been a while when I drink a glass of wine and it is really delicious.

"It seems you are enjoying it," He commented kaya tumingin ako sa kanya.

"Of course, I miss this feeling since I've been living like a traveler for a while so yeah, I am enjoying it," I said as I swirl the wine in the wine glass.

"I can see that since you act barbaric until now though I didn't take it much because you are a commoner so it is understandable," He said, hindi talaga mawawala sa kanya ang pag iinsulto although he's been like that -.-.

"Yes, yes. I know, a commoner like me is lacking in etiquette even though I was a former knight but since I am a commoner they look down on me for whatever even if I did my best but it was not enough for them because I am not a noble." I said, and I think I am tipsy so it's better to go to sleep.

"..." He didn't say anything so I drink up my wine as I stood up.

"I have to go, Marquess. Thank you for the food and Good night." I said as I left him kahit na medyo nahihilo na ako at buti nalang nakabalik pa ako sa kwarto ko as I lay down on my bed.

"Yes, yes. I know, a commoner like me is lacking in etiquette even though I was a former knight but since I am a commoner they look down on me for whatever even if I did my best but it was not enough for them because I am not a noble." He said as he was looking at me and I can see the pain in his eyes as he says that. I feel guilty after listening to him even though I didn't mean to say that so I didn't say anything. Napansin ko din na medyo tipsy na siya kaya baka is a din iyon na ng trigger sa emosyon niya at nung tumayo siya ay medyo natutumba siya but he still walks straight.

I am really curious where he had been since Lady Miary told us that she sent him on a mission but she didn't tell us specifically as we let it slide a month after he left. After 6 months, she didn't receive a letter from him so she was really worried about Avy's whereabouts and that's when Prince Renz help her to investigate and surprisingly Ian volunteered when he doesn't usually help without Prince Renz commands him. No progress on his whereabouts even after a year and Miary still waiting for a letter but no letter. Napapaisip na din siyang baka mangyari sa kanyang masama and not thinking the worst which is she will found out that Avy is dead somewhere else.
