성황의 아이들 [2]

267. Bertrand & Lee (1)

I heard that after the fall of Ortona, a large number of northerners, tired of their increasingly difficult lives, turned to bandits.

However, who could stand in the way of a procession led by the 'Knight of Grace' at the front and escorted by a Lilium detachment driving horses with flashing white livery on the side?

The road back to the ecliptic was more peaceful than when heading to Sigismund.

Meanwhile, Seongjin spent most of his time in the carriage with Logan or Sir Martha.

I've had lunch with Logan at the Pearl Palace before, but this is the first time I've been stuck with him all day like this.

Thanks to this, Seongjin learned just how extreme the Lilium Detachment Unit was.

In particular, the peak of these were the Three Musketeers of Lilium, Otto, Ellie, and Sir Duchamp.

"Sir, here are some scriptures and holy water for your morning prayers."

"Ah, thank you again, Sir Otto."

"Sir, I combed Roxanne's fur this morning."

"Good job, Sir Ellie. You don't have to do that, Roxanne would have been very pleased."

"Sir, I know you will be on your way, but would you like me to recite a collection of poems by your favorite Ortona next to you?"

"No, it's okay. Thank you for your attention, Sir Duchamp."

Seongjin stuck out his tongue.

The Lilium Detachment was also a detachment, but Logan was just as amazing. How can he just smile and get over those annoying writers with their eyes shining all day long?

[Why is it so bad? I heard that in the past, that guy tolerated Mores' evil behavior like a saint?]

'hmm... ... .'

Seongjin became solemn for a moment at the devil's point.

"They are so diligent and lead by example in everything they do, so I can't help but say that they are truly a role model for Holy Knights. I am always learning a lot from them."

"...You're kidding, right?"

Manager Bruno, who could not be seen from the side, also frowned at Seongjin.

"That's what the Lilium Detachment was like. I can admit that they serve His Majesty Logan wholeheartedly, but I can't help but think that they are truly extreme."

Seongjin looked at Director Bruno with dumbfounded eyes.

No, leader? I don't think it's normal for you to drink hot Melbourne tea after every meal, right?

However, Seongjin did not criticize him openly. The taste of the manager's tea, which I thought couldn't get any better, was getting better.

Howl.

[Ah, it's really good. I feel like all the fatigue in my body has been relieved!]

The demon king who shared the taste of tea was so happy that he rolled around in the flame crystal.

Although it was such a peaceful journey, discord broke out in an unexpected place.

It was the relationship between Max, the wolfdog, and Roxanne, Logan's rottweiler.

Ureung... ... .

Purr.

From the day they first met, an unexplainable, uneasy atmosphere flowed from the gazes of the two animals.
