The Regressor and the Blind Saint

A few more days passed, and the work of cleaning up the forge was finished.

Doban, who came out to the yard, felt a strange feeling when he saw the packed luggage.

Even though I’ve lived my whole life in this blacksmith’s shop, I really need to get rid of it, so I only have 3 bags of stuff. I was starting to feel something I didn’t know about because I wasn’t very conscious of it.

“I guess I lived a frugal life than I thought.”

It was a bit of a joke.

Renee covered her mouth and replied with a smile.

“I think it’s a good habit. Especially in the Holy Land.”

“I don’t know where to put my body.”

Doban smiled broadly and answered that question, then handed what he was holding to Renee. It was a black wand.

“Take it. It’s just a bribe I’m just asking for a favor.”

“This… .”

“It’s a stick. It will probably be usable for several decades. He’s a strong guy.”

Renee swept the staff that had been in his hand, savoring the sensation.

A little heavier than the original cane I used. A smooth feel that can be felt when swiping the surface. And when you touch the ground, the clear sound of ‘click’.

Renee expressed his gratitude with a shy face at the thought that Dovan had made this himself.

“thanks. You must have been busy cleaning up.”

“You don’t have to worry. Like I said, think of it as a bribe.”

Dovan smiled as he watched René clutching his wand, and then added those words.

“I added a few small features to my wand.”

“A function?”

“Would you like to hit the floor hard? Oh, to put divinity in the staff.”

Rene tilted her head at Doban’s sudden words, then nodded up and down to awaken the divine.

A white divinity hovers over the staff, and Renee taps the ground in that state.

Wow-!

A white wave spread all around.

“∑!”

Renee’s whole body shook. A look of surprise appeared on his face.

“This… .”

It was a tone full of surprise. It was because he couldn’t believe what had happened to him before. Dovan looked at Renee like that and continued explaining.

“Only three times a day, infuse the staff with divine power and touch the ground, and you will be able to discern objects around you. It is the principle of reflection of waves hitting an object. I made this in hopes of helping you in case you ever have to be alone.”

Vera, who had been silent until then, asked Doban. It’s because Vera came up with something that he couldn’t even imagine.

“Do you think you can handle magic engineering?”

“I touched it for a while when I was young. Well, I quit because it was too complicated for this worm to try. That thing was made mostly thanks to the materials.”

The doban pointed to the wand with a chin.

“It was made by mixing the remaining prodens from making the sword of the Lord.”

“Froden… , you mean?”

“Yeah, isn’t he amazing for his mana conductance alone? By using it, even a shallow knowledgeable person like me can imitate magic engineering.”

Vera then looked at the staff, recalling the light of understanding.

However, there was still something I didn’t understand.

“The color is black for the use of proden.”

It was that the color of the wand was black. If proden was mixed, it would have been white no matter what iron was added due to its nature.

A question floated across Vera’s face. Dovan, who looked at it, immediately said to Renee with a sly smile.

“Lady. Would you like to turn the handle of the wand counterclockwise?”

“Ah yes. yes!”

Renee made a blank face the whole time at the sensations he had felt before, and then came up with an answer belatedly.

It was a really mysterious feeling. it wasn’t visible It was literally felt. It is possible to know the information about what is in the place where the spread wave collides and what shape it has.

An unbelievable feeling. Rene, unable to find words to describe it, could not continue to think, and followed Doban’s words and turned the handle.

OK.

Surung-.

A cold sword rang.

rattle-. Renee’s body stiffened. Vera’s body stiffened too. Dovan laughed.

“I planted a knife. Shouldn’t I have a weapon for self-defense?”

A word spoken with thumbs up.

At that, Renee pouted her cheeks and nodded her head.

“Go, thank you… .”

“Well, you don’t use it often because you can’t see, but… , Still, holding it is reassuring, isn’t it? what are you doing Find the enemy’s position with waves and swing your sword! I think there’s also some romance.”

Doban’s words continued one after another.

Renee remembered those words.

‘Should I thank you? ?’

No, thank you, though. It is true that I received something as a gift that I never thought of.

Still, for some reason, Renee’s expression started acting strangely in a feeling that he was not grateful for it.

Vera, who was watching it from the side, looked at the white Froden’s sword and then nodded and said:

“There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Holy Lady, if you would like to learn swords, please let me know. I can teach you basic gripping techniques and posture.”

Suddenly, Renee felt a feeling of wanting to cry.

wanted to say I’m not like a combat weapon.

However, wondering if it would be disrespectful to Doban, who gave the gift, and Vera, who was worried, Renee nodded with a slightly mournful face.

“yes… .”

It was a car that thought in his mind that he would never swing a sword at all.

*

It was the day to leave.

They loaded the luggage they had brought so far into the wagon, and then the party started moving in a straight line towards the empire.

“Wow… !”

Aisha’s resilience.

Renee burst out into laughter at the sight of Aisha, who vomited out her laughter as soon as she stepped out of the smithy and got on the wagon.

The young Aisha was showing excitement the whole time, whether it was just the excitement of going to a new place.

“Rene, Renee! There is a lake there!”

“so?”

“yes! it’s so big… !”

Aisha’s eyes twinkled. The tip of his tail began to wiggle.

As Renee thought, Aisha had already taken over her heart.

go to a new place Go to the wider world Such thoughts may be one of the reasons, but the biggest reason is that there will be no one to bother Master anymore.

There will be some things where you don’t have to see the sad face of Master you’ve seen once.

Aisha, who remembered the excitement, was pushing her head out of the carriage window.

“Aisha, what do you do if you fall? Put your head down.”

“Ah yes.”

Dovan stopped Aisha.

Doban knew it too. How much Aisha cares for her.

Suddenly, a small emotion appeared in Doban. It was an environment in which it would not be strange to go out any time, but it was because the disciple, who was growing up to be a good person, was proud of him even though he did not take care of him for a long time.

Peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

Suddenly, Aisha put her head inside the carriage and began to stir her legs, uttering those words this time.

“Rene-nim, will there be many cool people in the Empire?”

The cheeks were slightly recalled.

No matter how tough Aishara was, she was a 12-year-old girl anyway. It still retains the fresh romance that only a girl of that age can embrace.

Doban’s face hardened slightly at Aisha’s words. A laugh escaped Renee’s lips.

Renee nodded and said.

“Is that so? Well, there are people who just come to mind.”

“who?”

“The Second Prince of the Empire. He is a very famous person.”

He was a person who spread the word on the continent.

You might think it’s strange that the second prince, who is not even the prince, is rumored so much, but if you listen to the words, I think you’ll get it right.

“What did you say, the youngest Imperial Knights Commander, the heir to the Masterpiece… , and all the sounds that I heard as a very handsome man were that kind of thing.”

“Wow… !”

Aisha’s tail stood straight. The cheers that were heard held up more intense expectations than before.

“Can I see you?”

“Um, well? If you are lucky, there will be a festival to commemorate the foundation day soon.”

“greatness! Hmmm!”

Dovan coughed in vain. Renee giggled again at Doban’s uncomfortable expression, this time turning to Vera.

“Oh, Vera is from the Empire too, right? Has Vera ever seen the Second Prince?”

“… Yes.”

Vera’s head nodded. The words that came out were a little shaky.

Second Prince Albrecht de Frich. Right now, he is called by a different name, but after the Demon King calls him, he will be called ‘Kyungae’s Knight’, the name of the leader who leads the heroes.

Of course, Vera, who was playing with those heroes, couldn’t be ignorant.

That is the reason why there is a tremor in his voice.

… You could say so, but it was for a slightly different reason that Vera was showing this sign now.

Why are you embarrassed by yourself?

Renee talking about Albrecht. It was also the reason why I didn’t like what I said as a good review.

“how about it? Are you really a gossip person?”

“yes? Tell me! Is the 2nd prince really a very handsome man?”

These were the words of Renee and Aisha, respectively. After going to Aisha, he was even given the title of ‘Second Prince’.

Vera looked up at Aisha with a sullen look on her face, as she suddenly remembered the words Aisha had grumbled that the nobles are all garbage.

The words that came out of his mouth were also in a rough tone.

“Looks like a swallow.”

“… yes?”

“It makes me feel bad when I look at it. The voice is sinister. Well, it’s good to see swordsmanship, but I’m better at it.”

It was an evaluation that added subjectivity to subjectivity.

Renee’s head tilted, and contempt crept over Aisha’s face.

“Why are you suddenly bragging about yourself?”

“Shut up.”

“Bee… .”

Aisha stuck out her tongue and swung it around.

The atmosphere was starting to feel awkward for some reason.

Confused, Renee quickly tried to rectify the atmosphere.

“Well, isn’t there a reason for the rumors?”

“I do not know. The most famous rumor about the second prince I know is that he is a sodomy.”

Vera’s bottomless conspiracy failed.

Vera thought. It’s not a lie.

In fact, there were rumors that the second prince would enjoy sodomy.

From https://readwn.com

Of course, it was rumors made by the girls who were kicked by him because he was so far away from women, but that didn’t matter to Vera.

What is important to Vera now is to devalue the second prince in Renee.

Vera’s attempt certainly paid off.

… in a slightly different direction.

Renee’s lips creaked.

“That’s right… .”

southern blue.

To those words, ‘always wrong intuition’ reacted this time as well.

Renee, who had shuddered without realizing it, tried to erase the thoughts that had come to him, but it was not easy.

‘Oh, no… .’

The man crossed the line. How does it mean to be s*xually abused by men?

Renee’s complexion darkened.

2 prince. overwhelming power. In Vera’s words, a sinister human.

Renee thought. Perhaps the second prince may kidnap Vera and imprison him with his power.

– You are mine forever.

Ososo-.

Goosebumps all over the body A widespread form of rejection comes to mind on the face.

A sense of crisis rang the alarm.

He is starting to show his dislike for the 2nd prince. Vera’s complexion softened at the sight, and Aisha questioned.

“What is a southern blue?”

“You don’t have to know.”

“Eh? Excuse me!”

Doban, who watched the whole situation from a little corner, shook his head without realizing it.

‘I don’t think it’s easy.’

Neither Renée nor Vera looked like their clothes were about to burst.

A thought suddenly popped into Doban’s mind.

‘Can I see these two dating before I die?’ it was a thought
