Festival (4)
145
It was bittersweet to have no one to share memories with.
Lay closed her eyes with a slightly confused face as she pondered the fireworks festival she had seen at the Han River Park in Yeouido long ago.
The face of the friend who was the culprit of this situation came to mind for a long time and then disappeared.
Whoops!
The fireworks that had lit up the sky were extinguished before the setting sun had completely set.
It would have looked a little more glamorous if the fireworks were launched at night when the sun was completely gone, but it was difficult to control the people after the festival was over.
As the splendid rays of light disappeared, people blinked as if they had just woken up and burst into cheers.

Now, only the last event of the festival remains.
Mohammed began his swordsmanship demonstration in the midst of a wide gathering of people.
A long, dark blue flame spread out between the gloomy background, and then they caught each other and spewed out wild and colorful flashes of light.
Many people were startled by the mysterious and daunting sight and backtracked.
Mohammed slashed through the air a few more times and then swung his sword at the huge pile of rocks that had been prepared in advance.
The swords were disassembled and turned into dozens of swords, falling on a pile of rocks.
Kwagga Gaga!!!!!
The hard rocks flew into dust with an explosion.
Lopilen, who had prepared a barrier in advance, locked up the rock fragments within the barrier to prevent damage from onlookers.
Count Phillips and Mohammed praised Count Phillips and Mohammed by the people of the Territory for a spectacle that could never have been conceived of by the same human being.
With this, today’s festival is over.
There were small events left until tomorrow, but this festival was almost over.
Rey approached Luna and stroked her hair.
“You worked hard to prepare for the fireworks display. Thank you. Thanks to you, everyone had a good view.”
Luna, who smiled calmly, stood quietly and felt Rey’s touch.
Rey patted Luna’s head and turned to Yohana.
Yohana still had five feet out of her mouth, and if she had sent her back, she would have to suffer for a few more days.
“Yohana, you dress up a little too sometimes. You look much better today.”
“What did you say.”
While grunting, Yohana slowly turned her head to the other side.
He didn’t want to show Rey the corners of his lips fluttering.
After saying goodbye to each other and parting, Ray headed to Yeongjuseong.
Alesia, who was waiting at the front door, smiled broadly.
“My knight!”
“What are you doing here?”
“I’ve been waiting for you!”
Alesia, who raised her voice in a welcoming way, immediately made a pale face.
“It seems that the older you get, the more things you need to worry about…”
Even if she was a little younger, Alesia would have won the Count’s permission by swarming her to participate in the commoners’ festivals with Rey.
However, now that she is a grown-up girl, the scope of her stubbornness has drastically decreased compared to before.
As a child, Alesia had to try to restrain herself in this and that way, as her character who had all kinds of accidents when she was young is nowhere to be found.
“Life is tiring!”
“You’re full of iron.”
Ray grinned.
Ray felt like a daughter-in-law raised by Alessia herself.
In the past, it was a bunch of mishaps that were difficult to put out, but now I can only see her as an aristocratic lady.
He was especially honest in front of Rei, but if he put it outside, he trembled easily.
Alessia, whether she knows Rey’s heart or not, is excited to talk about the new warhorse the Count has acquired.
It was something Rey knew most of the time, but as if hearing it for the first time, he adjusted the rhythm to Alesia’s story.
A warhorse was actually expensive, and the warhorse a knight rode was much more expensive.
In particular, among the horses that knights rode, those that wanted a good breed were treated as luxury items, and prices often fluctuated.
This time, Earl Phillips found three really decent warhorses, which boasted enormous physique and strength, weighing nearly a ton.
Jenkinson’s eyes widened.
Alesia entered the castle with a smile that the horse’s head was far above her eye level.
“I’m looking forward to Dalian.”

Now that the commoners enjoyed the festival, it was Alessia’s turn.
The knights of Count Phillips were going to compete with each other at the training center inside the Yeongjuseong Fortress.
It will be played in a tournament format and the winner will be awarded a horse.
They wouldn’t rush to each other to kill each other, but they weren’t all that different in skill, so it was going to be a pretty interesting matchup.
“I wonder who will win! Ray, what do you think?”
“Well, Sir Jenkinson will win.”
“Still, you still support the Master as a seed.”
“I’m not cheering you on… um. You’ll find out later.”
Rey and Alessia entered the training center inside the lord’s castle.

“aah!!”
“Cowardly Jenkinson!!!”
“Are you still talking about the pride of a knight?!”
The other knights were furious and rebuked Jenkinson.
Jenkinson wielded Moros as everyone else said it or not.
“Ah ha ha ha ha!”
Seeing that scene, Rey rubbed her forehead.
It is said that knights are less efficient than wizards, but they are relatively so. Of course, the level of equipment was also important to the knights.
Moreover, Moros was a top-level artifact that did not exist even in the Empire.
If they had similar skills, the one holding Moros just ate the opponent.
“Great!!”
Jenkinson’s opponent bounced back helplessly this time.
Moros amplifies most of the energy the user transmits.
As well as increasing the power of the sword, Moros also amplifies the kinetic energy, which makes the sword speed considerably faster.
Jenkinson easily smashed the other knights into the finals.
On the other hand, Didier, who managed to reach the final due to luck, shouted in anger.
“Cowardly, Sir Jenkinson!!”
Didier also had the Moros loan.
It wasn’t that he never thought of borrowing from Rey, but he didn’t even mention it because he thought it was too petty.
But Jenkinson is going to hit the back of the head like this.
Didier, who inevitably said that he should have hit the player if he had known this would happen, swung his sword.
Jenkinson swung Moros in a burst of madness as if he had forgotten his shame.
When he thought that what he was holding in his hand was the new sword of the empire that led the myth, he burst with joy and took away the proper accident.
“Khahaha!!”
“Ugh!!”
Didier let out a painful moan as he was pushed back one after another.
Alesia, who had hoped for an honorable battle between knights with equal skills, muttered with a disappointed face.
“Today’s Sir Jenkinson is a little ugly…”
“…”
Count Phillips also couldn’t hide his apathy, beckoning Ray to come closer.
Rey approached the Count without saying a word and stood with his mouth shut.
The count’s expression looked quite serious.
I felt angry when the result was completely different from the originally intended aspect of Dalian.
“Lay.”
“…Yes, Count.”
Rey flinched and looked into the count’s eyes.
The Count, who was watching Dalian, asked with a serious voice.
“Maybe next time I can swing it too?”
“…”
Ray, who frowned for a moment, pointed to Jenkinson just in case.
“You mean Moros?”
“Moros.”
“…”
Rey looked at the Count.
In a serious expression, only the count’s eyes were shining with anticipation.
Lay had a lot to say, but it was only herself that was a pity, so she made a pretty smile and put it on her face.
“You can tell me whenever you want. I’ll lend you ten or a hundred times.”
The count’s face brightened even more.
*
All the festivities are over.
The festival ended successfully, and there were no incidents.
Jenkinson, who won the battle between knights, was given a war horse with a smile.
The other knights vomited their anger, but they couldn’t change the outcome that had already been set.

Now Mohammed had to visit the ecliptic in person in the near future.
Thanks to the support of Count Phillips, children were able to accompany them to several zodiac.
Ray decided not to think that Moros had a big influence on the count’s decision-making process.
“where…”
About a week left before departure for the ecliptic.
Ray sat down on a chair and opened the stationery.
It was a letter from Floria.
[Ray, long time no see.]
Because there was a possibility of being seen by others, the letter written as if it were a subordinate contained a lot of complaints from Floria.
The main gist of the story was that his father’s head was hurting because unknown ‘damn junk’ hit a bang in the sea off the port.
Floria, who had been swearing for ‘damn junk’ for a while, only expressed her concern for Ray at the end of the letter.
I heard that you were injured in an accident, but you are well. Take care of yourself in the future. after that has passed.
The last line was especially written over and over again.
[I will be praying for El-Ram’s blessing to be with you.]
“Hmm…”
As Rey clenched her chin and smiled, Leah, who was next to her, shouted.
“Love letter! Read my brother’s love letter!”
“Sister, do you know what ‘love’ means?”
“Hold hands and kiss!”
I knew exactly what I expected.
Leah leaned closer to Rey with a slightly admired face.
“I’ll go too.”
“Where?”
“The emperor! I want to go with the emperor!”
“If you go there, it’s hard to get out alive.”
In any case, Leah clinged to the sound of no.
“I’m going too! I’m going too! I want to go with you!”
“…”
Rey looked at Leah for a moment, then took a small chair where Leah could sit and tapped it.
“Sit here.”
Leah, without any doubt, went to the chair that Rey was knocking and tried to sit down.
The moment Leah bends her legs and lowers her hips to sit on the chair.
Ray pulled the chair back.

Naturally, Leah’s buttocks plummeted to the floor.
“Wow!”
Cong!
Leah, who grabbed her stinging tailbone, looked around, understood the situation and burst out crying.
“aae!!!!!!”
“Hmm…”
Rey stretched out her hand towards Leah, who was crying and jabbing.
Rey grabbed Leia’s eyelids and raised her eyes, staring at her red eyes, and used her detox power.
The flow of dragon blood mixed in Leah’s blood was engraved on her head, though weakly.
‘Not yet… survive.’
Even in the midst of intense emotions, the flow of mana from the dragon blood was stable.
However, the situation was different with the fragment of the Dragon Heart planted in Leia’s heart.
Rey’s power caught the appearance of starting to be overloaded little by little.
“I wish you were only half like your dad.”
“Lea looks just like her mom!”
Leah protested even while crying.
In fact, Leah looked a lot like Bella.
However, Rei wanted her to resemble the talent of the first prince Karius.
He hoped that Leah would imitate his foolish and incompetent talent.
But Leah was a smart kid.
It seemed that he could only cry now, but his language ability developed much faster than his peers.
The energy he had in his body was never small either.
“…Stop crying.”
“aae!!”
“I can’t go with you, but when I come back from Hwangdo, I’ll buy a lot of delicious food.”
“really?”
“I said I’d buy it, but I didn’t say I’d give it to you.”
“aae!!”
“This keeps crying habitually.”
After holding Leah and riding the wooden horse, Rey shrugged her shoulders and left the house.
Soon, Leah’s laughter could be heard above her head.
“Wow!”
Rei continued to shrug her shoulders and looked in the direction of the ecliptic.
This trip was planned to show children a wider world.
I will never leave the Counties with such a pure purpose in the future.
So, Ray wanted this trip to be comfortable .
