Morgan, who had thrown out this bait for Ritter to eat, believed that even if Ritter didn't come to eat it now, he would come to eat it in the future as long as he kept adding bait.
"…Am I worth it? Miss."
Ritter didn't answer Morgan's question, but instead asked her the same question.
In fact, ever since he found out that Artolia was a 'she' and not a 'him', Litte had lost his value. Artolia's actions had made him realize that he was wrong, and wrong beyond belief.
Now, with Morgan's enticing bait, Ritter didn't know how much he was worth.
Of course, although Ritter's question was a little ambiguous, Morgan didn't feel it at all. The reason was that Morgan knew that Ritter was referring to his loyalty.
"I don't know what others think, and I don't want to know, but I think it's worth it, because I have supreme power but haven't given everything to me.”
Morgan, who originally wanted to say 'subordinate,' thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate, so he replaced it with the most suitable one.
After hearing Morgan's answer, Ritter tilted his head and stared at her big eyes, which were the same color as Artolia's, for a while. Then he said with a smile,""Hehe…as you wish, my young miss. But not now, after my lord doesn't want me. As for why not now, I can only say, my lady, you wouldn't want a treacherous scum who had joined his or her master's side before his or her master abandoned her.”
After 'picking up' Morgan's offer, Rittery didn't intend to betray Artolia, nor did he intend to make her angry and abandon him. Instead, he wanted to give her a chance to make up for her dead and living compatriots after she abandoned him.
Morgan, who was dissatisfied with Ritter's refusal to become his now, raised his fist and ruthlessly knocked on his head twice. Then, he looked at Ritter's head, which was making two thumping sounds like he was knocking on a pumpkin, with the two branches that had been peeled off and were stained with honey."You're too annoying, unruly citizen! Also, not only am I tired and angry, my mouth is also very dry!”
Morgan, who wanted to find a place to rest and drink tea, didn't directly say this because he wanted to see how Ritter would react. If his reaction was as he expected, he wouldn't care about him not becoming his now. Otherwise, he would 'care' about him to death.
Fortunately, she would only tell him what she wanted when he was alone with her. When there was an outsider, she would be like Morgan, who was a fool who refused to say what she wanted. Rittery, who knew what Morgan meant, looked around and saw that she had stopped moving as soon as she finished speaking. She crossed her arms under her chest, making her already bold chest even more bold."Do you want to go to the tavern in the commoner district or the tavern in the noble district? Of course, the tavern not only sold wine, but also some fruit juice and tea, so you could rest assured. Besides, if you don't want the nobles who know you to see you with me, we'll go to the tavern in the commoner district. Although it's very messy, but…hmm…I'm a regular there, so there won't be any unpleasant things happening, probably.”
Excluding the unstable factor of outsiders, Ritter dared to pat his chest and guarantee that no one in the tavern would dare to provoke him, unless someone was drunk enough to need his help to sober up.
Ritey, who had once caused a scene with Kel in the tavern, was famous for being a " little bastard." Not only was he ruthless and not fatal, but he could make people never forget what he had done to them. For example, he would make Kel grab the legs of the drunkard who harassed him and lift him upside down, then order ten bottles of wine to pour into the drunkard's nose.
If the drunkard accidentally choked on the wine, Ritter would ask Kel to kick the drunkard's back to relieve him of this state. Then, he would continue to pour wine into his nose until the drunkard sobered up or fainted.
Of course, it wasn't that no one came to stop Ritter and Kel when they did this, but that those who came to stop them were all beaten down, including some soldiers who often came to the tavern to drink.
As time went by, the people who drank in the taverns had formed a habit, that was, whenever a drunkard intended to harass Rittey who wore a cloak all day long, or Kai who always stayed with him, or Artolia who rarely came here, they would immediately throw him out. Otherwise, that d * mned b * stard who was drinking rum and torturing drunkards with rum would definitely trigger an all-out war.
Morgan carefully thought about whether it was more appropriate for him and Ritter to go to a tavern in the noble district or a tavern in the commoner district. With a disgusted expression, he said,"Let's go to the tavern in the commoner district. Even if the people there recognize me, it won't be a problem. Even if there's a problem, it's much smaller than being recognized in the tavern in the noble district. But let me remind you in advance, if anyone in the commoner district tavern dares to make me unhappy, I will…Hmph, you know what I will do!”
Morgan, who sounded like she was acting coquettishly and even wrinkled her nose at Ritter, looked very cute, but her words were not cute at all. She meant that if anyone made her unhappy, she would kill everyone in the tavern.
Ritter knew what Morgan meant and wanted to say," I want to go home." However, when he thought about how he might not be able to go home again, he brought her to the pub in the commoner district with a desperate expression. At the same time, he prayed in his heart," Don't let any drunkards or blind guys find trouble with me or Morgan."
After a while, Ritter, who was holding a jar of honey in his left hand and a bag of sweet oranges in his right hand, appeared outside the Commoner's District Tavern with Morgan, who had been kicked several times in exasperation after being rejected by him on the grounds that he was about to arrive.
Morgan stood under the shield-shaped wooden sign with a brown bear carved on it, which was hung on an iron rod embedded in the wall. He was listening to the noise inside through a single door made of wood, cast iron bars, and cast iron nails. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Ritter push open the door and walk in. Morgan, who wanted to say," Go to your house for tea," stomped his feet in exasperation. Then, he followed in with his white princess dress and kicked Ritter.
"Stinking troublemaker! Why…did I suddenly become so quiet? There was more! Did this young miss allow a group of lowly and unruly people like you to look at this young miss?! Immediately retract your disgusting gazes! Otherwise, I'll dig out your eyes and feed them to the dogs!”
Morgan's mood had already been ruined by Ritter, and now he had exploded at the sight of Morgan, who had just been very noisy and was now quietly looking at him.
However, what surprised Morgan, who thought that these lowly people had quieted down because they saw him, was that the moment he finished speaking, these lowly people turned their gazes to Ritter.
Morgan looked at the group of despicable people who were on guard as if they had seen something dangerous. Morgan gently shook Ritter's arm."Unruly people, what's wrong with this group of lowly unruly people? Why would he…"
"They miss me too much, so…you guys really make me sad. It's fine if you don't give me face and say that you don't miss me, but after saying that, you even asked me to get out quickly.”
Before he could finish speaking, he was mercilessly interrupted by the group of people. The moment his words fell, he assumed a charging posture.
Seeing this scene, a flirtatious woman in her early thirties with brown shoulder-length curly hair and a pair of gray-blue eyes, who wore heavy makeup and was twice as revealing as Morgan, helplessly sighed and clapped her hands."Pa, pa, pa…Alright, let's stop here! Otherwise, get out of here! Other than the young lady beside Little Rascal.”
This woman's words caused the group of people who had been tortured by Ritter and Kel to fall silent for a while. Then, they collectively turned around and ignored Ritter and Morgan.
As for Morgan's words, they didn't care. Even if Ritter wasn't here, they wouldn't dare to care. They weren't blind, stupid, or crazy.
"Alright, alright, since Mary has said so, I'll give her some face. Let's call it a day. We'll have a good exchange tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, gentlemen.”
Ritter, who had no intention of attacking from the start, was simply trying to scare people. The reason was that if he really wanted to attack, he wouldn't hold onto something he bought with gold coins.
However, Litte's words made the group of people shiver. This was because this guy was telling them that he would bring Kel to settle today's score with them tomorrow or the day after.
Morgan, who saw the group of people shiver at Ritter's words, smiled happily. He shook Ritter's arm again with a smile that didn't match the atmosphere."Rogue, don't forget to look for me before you come here tomorrow or the day after. If you forget, I will make your right ear deaf! Also, I'm very tired and thirsty. Hurry up and find a place to sit and something to drink for me!”
Morgan didn't like to watch people kill, but she didn't hate watching them either. What she liked the most was beating people up, which was torture. That was why she made such a request that made Ritter's cloaked lips tremble. After that, she made other requests, which deprived him of the right to reject her outright.
