Episode 18
Chapter 18.
Sarah’s screams echoed through her alley.
The whereabouts of the sword thrown by the assassin could be known by stabbing someone.
“Le…Leni…!”
Arya saw Lenny bleeding beside her. She couldn’t tell what the situation was because she couldn’t see where she was stabbed, but she could guess.
That it must have been stabbed in a dangerous position.
The blood running down Lenny’s body quickly began to form puddles on the floor.
‘Why am I dying…’
She wanted to change her destiny, but she did not want it to remain in this form. I should have just left everything and ran away. I regretted that my life ended like this.
“Don’t draw your sword and stay still.”
Sera appeared out of nowhere and warned me not to pull out my sword next to me. It seemed to her that perhaps she wished to prevent an avalanche of excessive bleeding.
“Don’t die Lenny..!”
Aria looked worried as she held my hand. Still, it was a good moment in my heart to have changed my destiny.
‘Ah, it’s comfortable…’
Except for the pain in my chest, it was a good situation. Even just lying on the floor felt happy and comfortable. It was safe to say that it was some kind of escape.
I felt my vision getting darker and I closed my eyes.
•••
A loud noise came and went in the warrior’s mansion.
“Are you still a warrior?”
“…”
An angry Sarah was blaming Eren for Lenny’s injury. She had a say in her because she was the one who actually dealt with all of her assassins.
“No, you mean there’s a loud noise in the alley, but you can’t find your way?”
The hero had been listening to Lenny for half his life, so he didn’t know where to go. She was a terrible gilchi.
“…Sorry.”
Since she was well aware that she was also responsible, she was Eren apologizing when she saw Lenny lying down.
Lenny passed out for a moment due to bleeding, and she gave first aid on the spot, so her life was not threatened.
She thought it was really fortunate, but Sarah didn’t like that Lenny was hurt.
‘Wouldn’t it hurt if I locked it up somewhere..?’
When Lenny saw her stabbed, new feelings began to bloom in her. Her sadness and anger over Lenny’s injury.
‘It would be fine if you stayed by my side..’
The feelings of greed were gradually blooming.
“There’s nothing wrong with Lenny’s life..?”
Aria, who was sitting next to Lenny, asked. She was quite shocked that Lenny was hurt.
She thought that Lenny was hurt because she went to the festival alone, and that was the truth, which made her feel even more depressed.
“There is nothing wrong with her life. She lost her mind because she lost a lot of blood.”
“Everything is good..”
Hearing Laysha’s definite answer, Arya finally eased her mind.
“By the way, the princess is living with her in her mansion from today?”
“Yes..Yes..”
Aine decided that keeping Aria in the imperial castle was impossible, so she made a new request to the hero party.
‘Please let Arya stay in her mansion.’
As Prince Henry’s momentum grew stronger, Arya needed to move her residence.
So, she came to the warrior’s mansion while informing the world that Princess Arya had left the empire to recuperate because of her ill health.
“I don’t like it.”
Sera alone is too much, but Princess Arya is also in the mansion? Eren’s heart was deeply uncomfortable.
“Because I don’t like it either?”
It was the same that Arya didn’t like the current situation. It was because of the conditions Aine had asked for.
‘Please hire Arya as her servant instead.’
I wanted to keep Aria safe by letting her live near the hero, so I asked her to help with the maintenance of the mansion and use her as her attendant.
From noble mtl dot com
‘U.. Maintenance fee..?’
There was no one who wouldn’t be tempted by it, and Laysha’s influence was the strongest. The saintess said that she needed money for Lenny’s treatment, so she extorted more money from Aine and allowed Aria to live in her mansion.
That’s why Arya’s status was demoted from her princess to her attendant in one day.
It was Aine’s idea of wanting Aria to grow up.
“First of all, Deacon Lenny needs to calm down. Let’s talk about it when we’re out and come to our senses.”
At Laysha’s words, they were the ones leaving Lenny’s room. Laysha looked closely at Lenny lying down before closing the door and leaving.
‘To disobey the will of the goddess. It’s nonsense’
Ray Sha was both surprised and suspicious at the change in her fate. It was the moment when Lenny was classified as a dangerous person to Laysha because beings who interfered in the fate of others were called ‘devils’.
After everyone inside left, Lenny’s room found peace, and the passed out Lenny had the longest sleep of his entire life.
•••
It wasn’t until evening that Lenny awoke from her slumber.
She felt a throbbing pain in her chest, but she felt better despite her scars, perhaps thanks to a good night’s sleep.
‘Wasn’t I dead..?’
I thought I was dead because my chest was pierced by a sword, but I was alive with a bandage wrapped around my chest.
‘What happened to Aine and Aria? Has her fate changed?’
I felt anxious because the fate of the two could not be determined, but my heart was relieved when I saw the existence holding my hand while sleeping.
“…”
Arya, holding her own hand and intermittently calling her ‘Lenny…’, Sat on her knees on her floor.
Looking at the towel next to her, it seemed that Arya took care of my injured body.
“I’m glad…”
Her heart was relieved when she confirmed that Arya was alive. In the end, it happened because fate changed.
ㅡ Sseudam.
As I stroked her silvery white hair, I found a piece of stationery lying on her desk. Thinking it was my letter because it was on my desk without being opened, I reached out and grabbed it.
Who sent it? I had to open the letter to check. Carefully lowering Arya’s hand that was holding her own, she tore open her letter with both hands and checked the contents.
ㅡ Hello, Deacon Lenny. First of all, I want to say thank you…
The letter contained the message that he was grateful that he had survived because his fate had changed thanks to me.
ㅡAria will be living as an attendant in the mansion while the imperial castle is stabilized for the time being.
The reason Arya was in my room was explained. It seemed that she was due to keep Arya in her mansion until Aine drove her prince out.
‘Isn’t that nice?’
It was good news for me because I was able to see Arya’s condition myself, so she didn’t have to worry about the imperial castle. Although it is a problem that Arya works as her servant.
ㅡAnd there is one last thing I want to ask you.
ㅡPlease don’t cover up Aria too much.
Princess Aine knew. She knew that if she and I were gone, she, Aria, she would be just a doll that couldn’t do anything. She meant to work in the mansion and help her aria grow.
‘Is my education the problem?’
The thought of having surrounded Aria so much made me feel strange. It was a bit of a shock to hear that she didn’t know how to do anything for Arya.
“Hee hee…”
As she was thinking about my education, watching Aria smiling in her sleep, the door opened and someone entered.
ㅡKikiiik..
That figure was the hero Eren, and when she saw me standing up, her red eyes widened.
“Seo..Sir..!”
She was running towards me with her eyes wide open.
ㅡ Kek!
Arya, who was sleeping while holding my hand, was pushed by Eren’s body and fell behind her, and Eren climbed onto her bed and hugged me.
“You’re fine, right? You’re not sick, are you feeling uncomfortable?”
It was Eren who asked me a quick-fire question about whether I was having trouble while I was sleeping.
‘It hurts the most because of you.’
Her wounds hurt because of her hugging me, but she decided to endure it because she didn’t want to break her emotions.
“What..What are you doing..!”
As soon as she woke up from her slumber, Aria exclaimed, startled to see me and Eren embracing each other. It’s one step too late to realize that the problem isn’t that.
“Uh..? Lenny..!!”
It was only then that he seemed to have noticed that I had woken up, and he got up from the floor where he was sitting and came running.
“My…I’m sorry…”
Aria’s blue eyes were watery as she apologized to me because she was at fault for this situation.
Eren said to her, who looked like she would cry if touched.
“I know it well. It’s because of you”
It was Aria that her mind flashed at those words. She said to Eren, who interrupted her touching reunion with Lenny.
“Who are you to say that? Don’t mind Lenny and nothing.”
I was emphasizing the aria that laughed at Eren and became more attached to Lenny.
She said she had been living with Lenny for a long time. It was Eren who noticed it.
“What’s my relationship with the house?”
Aria, who knew nothing about Eren, was funny. She didn’t know how close she was to him.
“This kind of relationship.”
Eren was more jealous of Aria than anyone else as she held Lenny’s body tight and she put her lips to his mouth.
“The teacher is mine.”
I will never take it away from you.
She was Eren, who had her qualifications towards Aria, who had lived a life that was the exact opposite of hers.
