In the end, the scared and angry Altolia drew out the steel sword from her waist and slashed at Ritter's leg.
"You're mine. If I want you to leave, you have to leave. If I want you to stay, you have to stay. If you don't listen to me, I'll cut off your legs so that you won't be able to go anywhere!”
Artolia's tone was cold and serious. Merlin, who had blocked her attack with his staff, was both helpless and surprised because he did not expect Artolia to do such a thing.
Even so, Merlin did not forget to give Litte a look to make him apologize to Altoria and make her happy.
Rittery, who did not expect that Altoria would do such a thing, rushed to her side without hesitation and hugged her body. He spoke in a voice that Merlin, who was in the same room as him and Altoria, could not hear clearly, asking her to put down the steel sword in her hand.
Upon seeing this, Merlin was curious about what Ritter had said to Artolia, but he still left Ritter's house quietly, leaving the two of them alone.
In the end, the next morning, Merlin, who had wanted to observe the situation with the crystal ball after he went back yesterday but did not do so for some reason, learned that Artoria had taught Litte a harsh lesson after he left.
As for how Merlin knew this, it was not because of Artolia or Litte, but because he saw it in Litte.
Ritey, who never wore a cloak at home, was limping. Anyone who saw him wearing a cloak that day could guess that he had been beaten up. Except for Merlin, Artolia, and Ritey himself, most people who saw him that day thought that he had been beaten up by Merlin.
Morgan looked around at the curious and doubtful passersby, then withdrew his hand and walked away.""Where are we going? When are you coming back?"
Morgan's tone was still unfriendly. If it wasn't for the fact that Ritter had just taken the antidote, she would have poisoned him again when she was pulling on Ritter's cloak. It was a colorless, odorless, and slow-acting poison that could make people weak.
Ritey, who was walking on Morgan's left, was tidying up his cloak that had been messed up by her. After thinking for a while, he looked at the familiar peers in front of him."I don't know where I'm going, when I'll be back, and I don't know either…I'm not lying. I really don't know where I'm going, and I don't know when I'll be back.”
Because he had been telling the truth from the beginning to the end, Ritter didn't change his words even after being punched by Morgan. The reason was that he felt that if he changed his words, he would definitely end up in a miserable state.
In fact, Ritter was right to think so, because when he spoke…no, when he punched him in the ribs, a cold killing intent flashed in Morgan's eyes. He was already prepared to kill him if he changed his words, and he used his poisonous nails.
However, Morgan, who was prepared for this, still didn't let go of his posture of being able to kill Ritter with his poisonous nails at any time. Instead, he narrowed his emerald eyes and stared at Ritter for a while. Only when Ritter felt a little scared did he straighten his left hand that was like an eagle's claw."Unruly person, why did you go out to gain experience? Want to become a knight? Or does the person who raised you want you to go out? If it's the former, I can help you, even if it's very troublesome.”
Morgan, who had extended an olive branch to Ritter, no longer hid her intentions. The reason was that she realized that if she continued to hide, Ritter would continue to act dumb.
Of course, Morgan did this because she wanted Ritter to be hers.
However, Ritter wouldn't accept Morgan's olive branch. The reason was that he couldn't give up everything he had now.
He should have been surprised to find out about Morgan's intentions, but he found that he wasn't surprised at all. After smiling for a while, he looked at his peers who were walking towards him with unfriendly expressions and said to Morgan,"Your appreciation makes me feel honored, but unfortunately, Miss, it's too late. Everything about me, including my body, is no longer mine. In addition, no matter what happens, I will never become a knight. The reason is…hmm…to put it nicely, I have no good feelings towards knights. To put it bluntly, as a 'quasi' warrior, I disdain to become a hypocritical knight who speaks of benevolence, righteousness, and morality.”
After saying that, Ritter tilted his head and smiled at Morgan. Even though his face and eyes were covered by the cloak, Morgan couldn't see his smile due to the angle, but he could see his smiling eyes. Therefore, Morgan, who understood why Ritter was smiling, also smiled at him.
Looking at Morgan, who had the same mocking and contemptuous smile towards the knight who was full of benevolence and morality as him, Rittery maintained this smile and made a gesture to invite her in. Morgan, who had long discovered those teenagers who were a few years younger than him, elegantly walked to the place where his hand was facing.
"A few minutes?"
"What's the matter?"
"It's nothing. I just saw something that interested me.”
"Oh, then…um…two minutes, if nothing unexpected happens.”
Standing up straight, Ritter looked at his peers, who had already walked a few meters away from him, and answered Morgan's question. The moment he finished speaking, he moved his neck and wrists, making a crisp cracking sound.
"Ritter, you saved my mother's life. I, Zach, owe you my life, but you said it before, one yard is one yard, so you ran away last time. I happened to see you today, so I'm going to beat you up! Besides, you turned around and ran away when you saw us last time. Are you trying to be a hero in front of the noble lady? Coward!"
The person who said these words was a young man with short brown hair and a pair of greyish green eyes. He was also a filial child who ran to Sir Eckart's residence to beg Ritter to save his mother's life last Christmas because his mother was sick but had no money to treat her. His name was Zac Demik.
Ritter, who was eating a roasted chicken leg in the small restaurant, immediately dragged Zach to Merlin's residence with the chicken leg in his mouth. He asked Zach to tell Merlin about his mother's illness and symptoms. After listening to Merlin, Merlin gave Zach a bottle of potion and rushed out of Eckart's residence to his house to feed his mother the potion.
However, Ritter did not leave after doing all this. Instead, he pulled off the Christmas present Merlin had given him from his waist. According to Merlin, he had bought a white silk gold coin bag with more than fifty gold coins from a Persian merchant. He threw it to Ritter and said these words before he ran away without waiting for Zach and his family, who looked extremely sick.
"Take this bag of gold coins and use it, but you have to use it in a good way. For example, buy some nutritious things for your mother, buy some delicious food for your family, and then buy a piece of land. Of course, this bag of gold coins is not for you. I'm lending it to you, so don't forget to return it to me. By the way, this is here and that is there. If I see you holding any delicious food in the future, I will still snatch it.”
Ritey, who had already opened the door when he said the last sentence, left Zach's house before Zach could even kneel down to thank him. He panted in his thin linen clothes and narrowed his eyes. He disappeared from Zach and his family's sight.
Zach and his family were so anxious that they didn't notice that Rite's eyes were blue. After Rite's mother recovered, Zach and his family accidentally remembered that Rite's eyes were blue when they talked about Rite. However, Zach and his family didn't tell anyone about this. Instead, they swore to keep Rite's secret even if they had to die.
Before Ritey could say anything, Morgan, who was watching the show, said,""This kind of lowly unruly person can scare you into turning around and running away. You disappoint me too much, unruly person.”
Morgan's tone was filled with mockery as he fanned the flames, so he knew that she probably wanted to see how much strength he had. Ritter casually shrugged his shoulders and tilted his head to look at her." Even if you're so disappointed that you don't want to see me again, there's nothing you can do about it. Because a certain idiot who's envious, jealous, and hateful, but can't beat me, sold my whereabouts to him. I've never brought a weapon with me for the past two years. Then, he gathered the scum in the slums and the slums who were bullied by me on a daily basis. They would look at me with bloodshot eyes like rabbits. That's why I had to run for the oranges and apples with a bag of oranges in my left hand and a bag of apples in my right hand. By the way, these scums were all holding weapons in their hands, and more than half of them were holding swords, real swords.”
Ritter, who had explained to Morgan why he had turned around and fled when he saw Zach and the others, did not lie. It was useless even if Zach did not want to admit it. The reason was that the many knights and soldiers in the royal city could prove that Ritter was telling the truth.
In fact, this matter was very big at that time. When the highest commander of the palace garrison received a report of hundreds of armed teenagers on the street, he thought that these teenagers were brainwashed by the pagans and wanted to rebel. However, after more than half of the soldiers were dispatched to suppress them in a gentle way, the commander of the palace garrison learned about this. The young man, including his son, had gathered together to beat up the little rascal who was under Merlin's cloak…
