YM778.TV Chapter 37.2
“I was wondering who was looking for me. Aren’t you a kid from the Draco Family? I didn’t expect to see you in a place like this.”
Elga, still with a flushed face, frowned and roared like a literal lion.
“What is a person who can’t even stick her nose into Angmar’s Court doing at a foreign country’s tavern like this!?”
“…….”
The eldest daughter of the Draco Family, Mirna, simply opened her slender eyes without responding to Elga’s provocation.
Her red eyes were trailing down to Elga’s legs… To be precise, she seemed to be looking at Elga’s glass shoes.
“Those shoes. I had them specifically made for my little sister. Give them back.”
“Oh, this?”
It was only then that Elga realized why the Draco Family’s Young Lady had come looking for her.
Now that I thought about it, the store owner indeed said that the shoes were reserved for someone important, back when we made the purchase.
Yet Elga just ignored it and bought the item at a higher price…
Who would’ve thought that it was the Young Lady of the Draco Family that had dibs on the shoes!
However, I was a little confused.
Why was the Draco Family here in Gracia, the Church’s lands?
I knew they stayed abroad, but they should be in Angmar at this time….
Ah!
Then I remembered that I had successfully suppressed Belmott’s rebellion.
Originally, this was the time in which the Draco Family had to return to their homeland to deal with the chaos caused by uprisings that were taking place all over the Kingdom.
But because I had made the rebellion itself non-existent, the purpose for the Draco Family to return to Angmar also ceased.
“Give them back, if you don’t want to see things turn rough.”
Seueuk.
Mirna Draco then reached out towards Elga.
On the other hand, Elga frowned and muttered, “Rough… ?” before laughing with her mouth full of fangs.
“Give them back? I already bought these and they are MINE! If you’re so upset, you should have just come earlier. Yet you are blaming me for your slowness!?”
“If you don’t return what’s rightfully mine, you will be in real danger, Lioness girl~.”
Jolgok, jolgeurok.
The figures in black robes, who were escorting Mirna Draco, began to draw swords from their waists. The sound of cold steel filled the room…
Perhaps lurking beneath those black robes was all sorts of heavy armor. Were they the famous Dragoons of the Draco Family?
Sususu-.
The patrons in the tavern were starting to get restless from the unsettling aura this confrontation exuded.
━Is it a fight? This is gonna be fun!
━Give me some more drinks!!
━A battle of nobles…. Where else can you get a front-row view like this?
━Who will win? I vote for those in black robes.
No, I was not really scared.
However, being well aware of the situation, I couldn’t help but get nervous.
If Elga and Mirna fought in this narrow place, many things would surely be destroyed.
Here, in this country, we were foreign students. A riot caused by nobles from another country would certainly cause rumors to spread throughout the city overnight.
And such rumors were sure to bring bad things. After all, I was on the receiving end many times and knew how bad it could get…
“Cowardly Draco bas†ards! You lot always hide behind someone’s back! Are you just scared to fight one-on-one against me~?”
“Hmph. Why do I have to dirty my own hands like you fools?”
It appeared that Elga and Mirna were dead set on fighting. The option of ‘reconciliation’ or ‘compromise’ seemed to not exist in their heads.
This was why the Lioness and Draco Family had been rivals for a thousand years. You could even call them archnemeses…
So, I decided to intervene with the thought that since I couldn’t stop the fight, let at least change locations.
“Everyone, I’m very sorry to interrupt, but if you’re going to have a showdown, you shouldn’t be doing it here… How about at least moving to an empty area where there would be no people?”
“What do you think you are doing, Theo? Why are you interfering?”
Thinking that I was meddling with their confrontation, Elga got angry. Usually, she would have already smacked me on the head by now.
“…….”
Yet, Elga only looked at me and deeply exhaled, as if she was helpless of the situation.
“… Okay, fine. It would be easier to move in an empty space anyway. Hey, you infant lizard. Do not try to run away!”
Then Elga left first, walking outside the tavern. Meanwhile, Mirna Draco simply observed the situation with interest.
Seuk.
Soon, her red eyes turned to me. They were as creepy as blood, which made me unknowingly flinch.
“Even if I go out, don’t ever think that it is due to your will, Gospel, servant of Tarantera.”
“I’m sorry, but it’s not ‘Tarantera’. The person you need to address is Lady Aira Von Tarantera VIII, Her Majesty the Queen.”
“‘Her Majesty the Queen’. Really?”
Then, along with the black-robed figures, Mirna walked outside with a thumping noise.
「You sure are a skilled trainer!
Gained job experience for ‘Tutor’. +50」
Dismissing the notifications with my hand, I thought of the keywords from the conversation we just had.
‘Servant of Tarantera’?
There was a kind of contempt in those words…
Hm, yes. As far as I knew, the Draco Family didn’t recognize Aira’s Tarantera Family as the Royal Family.
Angmar was the only one they acknowledged as the ruler of the Angmar Kingdom. Naturally, they weren’t satisfied with the Tarantera Family usurping the throne.
And at the end, she put emphasis on the word ‘Gospel’, a surname that proved my lack of parents.
Basically, she wanted to say that I was just a homeless orphan, right?
Anyway.
They were Angmar loyalists.
But, in the end, they also rebelled against the Angmar Royal Family for some unknown reason.
For now, it didn’t change the fact that they were a target of my potential revenge.
However, I might also be able to turn them into my subordinates….
While I was deep in thought, many people in the tavern began to rush out together.
━Ya! Let’s go take a look!
━Hehe, this is going to be fun!
… This would render changing the fighting area useless, you id¡ots!
You were going to get hurt!
I, too, hurriedly ran outside.
