After thinking for a while, he still couldn't understand why. He then returned to the display case and picked up the quill pen in the ink bottle on the display case. He began to write something on a clean piece of parchment that only he and his father could understand.
At the same time, Ritey, who was walking on the bluestone road leading to the commoner's district, kept a certain distance from Altoria. After tying the bulging bag of gold coins on his belt and covering it with his cloak, Ritey looked at Altoria, who wanted to seize the opportunity to snatch the bag of gold coins back to little Stick."Give up, my lord. You can't take that bag of gold coins from me.”
After saying that, Rittery took a big step to the left and dodged the attack of Artolia. At the same time, he quickly grabbed her hand and stopped her from falling down or getting hurt.
At the sight of this, Artolia, who thought that her chance had come, reached out her other hand to Ritter's waist where the bag of gold coins was hanging.
Unfortunately, even so, Artolia didn't succeed because Litte knew that she would do this when he grabbed her hand. He easily grabbed her hand with his other hand and said,""My lord, why didn't you listen to my advice? Moreover, this bag of gold coins was given to me by Little Stick voluntarily. I didn't force him to give it to me, nor did I ask him for it. You…even if you step on my foot, I won't return this bag of gold coins to Little Stick.”
Before he could finish his words, Artolia stepped on his feet and interrupted him. After taking a deep breath, Rittery gritted his teeth and said those words, which would make others feel that he was a greedy villain who loved gold coins as much as his life.
Looking around at the people who were pointing at Ritter and Artolia, Kel quickly took out a gold coin from the gold coin pouch tied to his waist. He didn't want to make a big deal out of this matter. He looked at the two who didn't want to pay back the money and said,""Litte, Toria, I'm asking the two of you to consider that it would be very troublesome if Merlin or my father were to hear about this matter. You can decide whether to return it or not by throwing gold coins.”
Kel's words made Ritter and Altolia, who were in a deadlock, look around. Then, they looked at Kel, who seemed to be on the verge of tears. Finally, they looked into each other's eyes and nodded hard, saying," Okay."
Kel quickly threw out the gold coin in his hand before Ritter could say anything else. He looked at Ritter and Artolia and said,""Choose, front or back.”
After saying that, Kel came to the two of them and handed the gold coin to them under the watchful eyes of many people, including Litte and Artolia.
Remembering whether the gold coin had been heads or tails before Kel caught it, Ritter smiled cunningly and said,"I choose straight…"
"Head on! Because I'm right!"
As soon as the word " serious " came out of her mouth, Artolia interrupted her and Ritey couldn't help but laugh. She realized that she had been tricked.
However, when Artolia was about to change her mind, something even more unfortunate happened. When Ritter let go of her hands, he said something like that.
"Behind! Under the witness of the passing ladies and gentlemen! I choose the back!"
This sentence attracted the attention of the onlookers to Kel's hand. He had originally wanted to go back on his word, but he could only give up and obediently open his hand."The back…Toria, it's not my fault! Why did you…Ritter bastard, I'm not done with you!”
Kel, who was punched twice in the chest by the exasperated Artolia, was not angry at her, but at Ritter. It was all Ritter's fault.
Rittery didn't care about what Kel said at all. He looked at Kel with disdain, then made a gesture to Nasha and caught up with Altoria who walked out of the crowd angrily."My lord, why didn't you wait for me to leave?”
“……。”
"You don't want to talk to me anymore? Or do you not want to vomit…Cough cough…This is really ruthless, I almost vomited.”
While talking, Rittery was rubbing his belly. He knew that Artolia would be so cruel to him before he said that. However, he had to do this to make her pay attention to him. Otherwise, Artolia would ignore him completely until he sincerely apologized and returned the bag of gold coins to little Stick.
Glancing at the people who were talking about Ritter, Artolia turned to the other side, where Ritter was standing. She looked at him with a frown and puffed cheeks."Cow and chicken!"
Artolia's words might have been meaningless to others, but they didn't sound like it to Ritey. He quickly nodded.""Yes, my lord. However, should we go to the usual place or go to the market before going home?”
Ritey, who was much shorter than him, asked her with a smile that only Artolia could see. He was the one who Merlin acknowledged as the one who understood her the most.
Of course, Merlin, who had admitted this, was also worried that Littey, who understood Artolia the most, would develop into a lover from a master-servant relationship and a special friend relationship with her. However, despite his worries, Merlin did not take any practical action. He only gave Littey a verbal warning because nothing could separate the two of them except death.
At this point, Merlin, who had watched Ritter grow up and regarded him as his proud student and child who had sacrificed his life to save Altolia at such a young age, could not kill Ritter. Therefore, Merlin could only let fate decide the relationship between the two.
Artolia made a decision after a brief thought. When she saw Nasha walking behind Litte, she opened her pink lips and said,""Go to the market first, then go home.”
Altolia was telling Litte that she wanted to eat the steak and roast chicken that he had cooked.
After understanding what Artoria meant, Litte turned back to Nasha and nodded at her. When Artoria walked away with a satisfied expression, he slowed down his pace and whispered to Nasha,""Go home after you're done shopping. Of course, don't misunderstand. I'm not chasing you away. I'm just asking you to go home and recuperate your little hands, so don't cry.”
After saying that, Ritey raised his right hand and touched Nasha's cheek.
Nasha's eyes turned red when she heard Litte say that she should go home. She sniffed and looked at him with a smile on her face."No, I'm not going back…Alright, I'll listen to you and go home to recuperate.”
Nasha reluctantly changed her words after being stared at by Ritter's big blue eyes. She knew that if she didn't change her words, Ritter would get angry.
Ritter ignored Nasha's expression and nodded in satisfaction. He spoke in a gentle tone that only she had heard before,""Take care of yourself at home. If you encounter any bad people or danger, tear up the paper with the hexagonal magic circle I gave you last time, do you hear me?”
In order to protect Nasha, Ritey, who reminded her what to do when she encountered bad people and danger, risked being beaten into a fool by Merlin and shamelessly asked him for two magic scrolls that could save her life at a critical moment.
As for who Ritter had given the other one to, he must have turned to look at Nasha's lower body with a slightly red face because the remaining scroll had been secretly sewn into the underwear that he had given Nasha.
Of course, it was Merlin's good and bad idea that Litte would sew the scroll into Nasha's underwear. Otherwise, even if he was smart in other things, he would not be able to figure out where to sew the scroll.
By the way, when Ritter sewed the scroll onto Nasha's underwear, he was so embarrassed and scared that he wanted to die. If anyone other than Merlin saw him holding a female's underwear sewing scroll, he only had two choices. One was to commit suicide, and the other was to be killed.
Fortunately, there were only three people who knew about this matter in the end. One of them was Riteeroya himself. The other two were Merlin, who had seen everything with his crystal ball and was laughing secretly in his workshop. Nasha, who had been told everything by him, was so red that she could bleed with a pinch.
Nasha's face instantly turned red when she heard Ritter's words. When she saw that her face had turned the same, she lowered her head and fiddled with her white apron as she replied in a mosquito-like voice,"I heard you, don't worry."
"... luckily my hearing is as good as my eyes.”
After a moment of silence, Rittery quickened his pace and stopped walking side by side with Nasha, following behind Altoria.
Even so, Rittery would turn back to look at Nasha from time to time to prevent any bad accidents from happening. But soon, Rittery did so again because Nasha had sped up and appeared between him and Kel. She was behind Altolia, so Rittery didn't need to do anything to see him…
