Chapter 42 42 : What Behind The Storage Room



"MISTENKT! WHO ARE YOU?! WHERE IS ISKARIA!"

Inside the storage room, Allen was ambushed, or rather pounced upon by someone.

This happened after he cleaned Thurstan\'s room. Since Thurstan told him to rewrite the criminal code, he was about to take more ink from the storage room.

On his way to the storage room, he met Iskaria, who was running while holding her hand, which seemed to be injured. Iskaria only turned her head slightly toward him and just ignored Allen.

He met Iskaria on his way to the storage room. She was running while holding her hand, which seemed to be injured, but Iskaria just turned her head a little bit and didn\'t say anything to Allen.

After Allen reached the storage room and was about to get the ink, something pounced on him from the side.

"WOAH!"

Allen fell down, and the person who jumped on him squished his body. They gripped his hands so tightly that he couldn\'t move them; it felt like his hands were stuck to the floor. He could move his legs, but it wouldn\'t have helped him get away because the person on top of him was so heavy.

Allen\'s face and his eyes were covered by ink, making it difficult for him to see that person clearly. But from the size of their hands and their voice, he could tell that it was a kid who was probably about his size.

"WHO ARE YOU!" shouted Allen.

"SINT! Don\'t ask me back! Who are you?! Don\'t you dare shout, or I\'ll cut out your eyes!"

Slowly, Allen opened one eye.

He saw a dirty and shabby-looking girl. Her skin was tan, and her eyes were red, just like him. Her hair is very thick and long—maybe longer than her body.

And then

Her hair color is white.

\'She\'s Norttish!\' thought Allen.

Allen tried to rebel but was useless; she was very strong. much stronger than Allen.

\'How could such a small body be so heavy and strong?!\'

Then Allen looked at the hole where Iskaria came out; the hole was open. Allen concluded that this Norttish had something to do with Iskaria, who was running while holding her injured hand.

Allen stopped rebelling, and he said

"What have you done to Iskaria?"

When Allen said that, the Norttish girl\'s angry face turned sad, and her grip became weak. As soon as it weakened, Allen immediately used his knee to kick the girl\'s ass, and he was now able to escape from her grip. Allen immediately removed both blades from his waist\'s sheath and stood up.

As a result of Allen\'s kick, the Norttish girl rolled backwards until she hit the door. Her clothes were slightly open at the abdomen, and Allen saw Wolverlope\'s family crest there.

\'She\'s one of Isabelle\'s slaves!\'

Allen recalled Iskaria\'s strange behavior in the past few days, and all the puzzles seemed connected in his mind.

Then he recalled one of the contents of the criminal code that Thurstan read.

\'Hiding a Norrtish is a first-degree felony; the hider and his family will be sentenced to death.\'

\'Isabelle must know about this. Because of how quietly Iskaria went to the storage room and the Wolverlope family crest on the girl\'s body. She hid Norttish under her house. I can\'t believe she broke the law.\'

Allen re-sheathed his blade and approached the Norttish girl.

"Hey..."

As he approached, the Norttish girl pounced on him again, but of course, Allen was expecting that. He used his left foot to kick the girl\'s chin as hard as he could.

As a result, the girl vomited, and she was now in pain, clutching her injured chin.

\'That\'s strange, Theobauld said people would faint if we kicked their chin, is my kick still not strong enough? \'

"Hey, why are you attacking me?" asked Allen.

"SINT! Of course, it\'s because you want to kill me! Iskaria said, a lot of assassins are after me!"

\'What is sint? a new vocabulary that I didn\'t know?

Allen sighed. He then lifted his shirt up to his chest, showing the Wolverlope family symbol on his chest.

"!!!" The girl was shocked; she also lifted her shirt and looked at the symbol on her stomach.

[ILLUSTRATION]

"OVERRASKET! It\'s the same symbol! So it\'s not just Iskaria who has the same symbol as me!"

The girl\'s resistance immediately disappeared. She crawled close to Allen, and then she sniffed Allen\'s body

Feeling uncomfortable, Allen immediately pushed the girl\'s face with his hand.

"Hyggelig. You smell a bit like Iskaria; who are you?! Who haaah?! Tell me, human boy!"

\'What smell is she talking about? The smell of soap? The smell of ink? And what is hyggelig?\'

Allen wiped the ink off his head as he walked to the hole at the end of the room.

In the hole, there was a set of stairs that led back down. And there seemed to be a room below it. Which meant the Norttish girl had been hiding there the whole time.

"Forvirret! tell me who you are! Why are you looking at Illska\'s house?!"

\'House? So this little hole is a house to her.\'

"I\'m Allen, and I\'m also one of Isabelle\'s slaves, just like you."

"A-Allen... a-are you from the outside world?"

"The outside world?"

"Sanne, you came from that gate, right?!"

\'Did she think her world was only inside that little hole all this time?\'

Allen nodded

"That\'s right," he replied.

"FLOTT!!! And then... do you live with Iskaria?!"

"That\'s right."

"Is it true that there\'s a big light out there that we can\'t see directly?!"

"Yes."

"Then then then... what about the bunch of small lights in the dark sky?"

"Yes, they exist at night."

As Allen looked at the girl, he was reminded of himself in the dungeon. He didn\'t know how long the girl had been in the hole, but it must have been so long that she didn\'t know about the existence of the sun and stars.

"Don\'t you ever leave the house?" asked Allen.

"Sikker, Illska move around a lot! But Illska had never been to the outside world. That\'s why Illska wanted to go to the outside world, but Iskaria forbade me to go."

\'Of course, with that hair of yours, if you go out, you\'ll die instantly,\'

The girl\'s face began to look sad.

"Iei seg. Iskaria has always been good to Illska, she brings Illska delicious food almost every day, but she always forbids Illska to go out. Then, because Illska insisted on going out with her, she slapped Illska instead, and Illska accidentally struck her hand. Illska felt really sorry."

Allen then picked up the book he had dropped earlier and picked up the ink again.

"Forvirret, where are you going, Allen?" the girl asked, seeing that Allen seemed to be about to leave.

"I\'m going to my house too. As Iskaria said, there are many bad guys in the outside world; you must stay inside if you don\'t want to be hated by Iskaria."

"LEI SEG, wait! Can\'t you stay here? Illska wants to talk more! If Illska can\'t go to the outside world, at least Illska wants to know about it!"

Allen turned around and walked back to the Norttish girl.

"You shouldn\'t need to know about the outside world. Maybe your little home is better than the outside world. No, it must be better. The outside world is not as good as you think. You\'ll wish you never left your home when you get out."

"Forvirret... Why? Is there really nothing good in the outside world? So different from what Illska heard from Olaug."

\'Who is Olaug?\'

"The best thing for you to do now is to stay inside. Don\'t ever come out. Sometimes other people enter this room not just me."

The girl\'s presence also interferes Allen\'s plan. If, for example, she came out and was seen by someone else, and that person reported it to the church, then Isabelle could be killed.

\'At least for now, I still need Isabelle,\'

"Bonfalle... If Illska went back inside the house, would Allen see me again?" the girl asked with a pitiful face.

Allen let out a long sigh. Of course, he didn\'t want to meet her again. He had a lot of things to do. He had to learn to use the sword, amnis, as well as read and write. There was no time to look after this Norttish girl. But now he had to do it, to get this girl back inside.

"Alright alright. I\'ll see you again."

The girl smiled widely, then jumped, and hugged Allen\'s head.

"TAKK ALLEN!"

"Let go!"

"Takk... My name is Illska!"

"Yeah, I heard it many times. See you soon."

Illska went back into the hole. Allen came out of the room.

\'How dangerous is that hole not locked from the outside?\' thought Allen.

Iskaria was standing outside when he opened the door. Her face looked so shocked that she didn\'t expect Allen to be there, and she seemed to assume that Allen had already met Illska.

"Did.. Did you see her?"

"About that child? That\'s right. Next time, lock that hole first." said Allen, who was just walking past.

Iskaria then pulled Allen\'s hand.

"Allen, listen, don\'t let anyone know about this. If someone finds out..."

"Aaah okay okay, take it easy. I still need Isabelle however." Allen withdrew his hand that was held by Iskaria, and continued walking towards his room.

.

"I see... Allen already knows," Isabelle said as she inhaled her cigar. She seemed to have just finished work.

In front of her was Iskaria, who stood with fear on her face, afraid of being scolded by Isabelle for being negligent in her duties. She forgot to lock the hole and made Allen meet Illska.

"So, what was her reaction?" asked Isabelle.

"He said he wouldn\'t tell anyone because he still needs you,"

"Hahaha, the answer I expected. Looks like I don\'t need to give Allen any more orders."

"Lady! Are you serious?! What if he betrays and tells the church?"

"That\'s impossible. That kid is only thinking about his grudge against Leofric. As long as he keeps quiet, it\'s no problem. I want to rest. You can leave."

Iskaria bowed her head and left the room.

\'\'Lady, you are too kind to children. I never agreed to hide that creature in this house in the first place,\' thought Iskaria.

The next day and the next, Allen always met her after studying amnis. He was forced to listen to Illska\'s stories, and he was also forced to tell her about things in the outside world.

As time went on, Illska\'s curiosity grew, and her desire to go to the outside world also grew.

So she talked about this to Iskaria, and Iskaria forbade her to talk about the outside world any further.

"Unfortunately, you can\'t ban it forever, Iskaria."
