Chapter 515
My Villains Episode 515
67. Lord of Icebovald(8)
The place Egon hurried through the short hallway and entered was a kind of drawing room. The boy swallowed his saliva at the scenery that unfolded before his eyes..
The reception room, located out of nowhere on the top floor, was cozy and luxurious at the same time..
The walls were covered with a thick layer of cotton cloth dyed with yellow-green dye. Beyond the loose iron bars of the fireplace in the middle of the place, a soft flame was slowly burning the apple and cherry trees..
The velvet curtains on the windows as tall as Egon glowed softly in the fire and candlelight, and a carpet with harmonious patterns of five colors completely covered the floor..
Colors that are instantly soothing to the eyes, warmth that melts stiff shoulders, a scent that soothes the mind, and softness underfoot.…….
It was a pitifully cozy room, but Egon felt nervous once again. This is because there was one woman sitting on the large leather sofa and the table across from it..
Egon looked at their faces and opened his mouth again. This is because the two women were also rare beauties in the world..
“Oh, you're all here together.”
It was the person sitting on the sofa who said that..
She was wearing a plain white doublet and dark brown-dyed sheepskin pants. In addition, a top buttoned all the way, sturdy boots, and a belt with a long sword attached. It really looks like the typical knight in plain clothes..
However, paradoxically, it was also an outfit that made her femininity stand out even more..
The long legs that reached down to the slender ankles were like that, the white blonde hair that was curled up and the white nape of the neck that stretched straight down were like that. The highlight of all of them was the thin waist exposed by the tight belt and the chest that showed great presence even though the body was generous..
After checking the silver pendant on her chest, Egon was certain of the woman's identity..
‘It was Theodora who was called ‘the Lady of the Sun’, ‘the first Paladin of Calandari’, and ‘the Anointed One’..
She is the legitimate daughter of Duke Strom, and at the same time, she is a noble woman who inherited the blood of the Zeore royal family through her mother's line. However, she was ordained by the three Scarlet Bishops and gained an even more noble status by throwing away all her worldly status.…….
On the other hand, it was true that it seemed strange at first glance that Theodora would be living here. Even now, as a holy priest of Calandari, she is still firmly keeping the vow of chastity she took as a nun of El Ganor, and she is a resident of the ‘Mansion of the Fiancés.’.
However, she was the one who persuaded the prince, who was a follower of El Ganor, to convert to Calandari and introduced him to Aramos, the 'Red-robed Bishop of the Blooming Flower', so that he could be baptized. As a close associate of the Red Lord and a leader of his faith, it is not necessarily strange for him to stay in a mansion close to the lord's residence..
“I thought you were preoccupied with boiling herbs again, but you personally guided me. Well done, Miss Ellen.” Ellen walked into the living room and sat next to me.
As she buried herself in the chair, Theodora smiled softly..
“Guide? I ran into you in front of you..”
“ah. So, did you come out after hearing someone pretending to be popular during the experiment? Yeah, it's not polite to make guests wait..”
“what is that-”
The witch, who was about to say something with her brows furrowed, could only sigh with a lumpy face as the paladin's hand stroked the top of her head. And he gestured towards the table..
“Give me a cup of tea too.”
“Ah, yes.”
The young woman, who had already woken up, headed to the shelf next to the fireplace..
“I also need the cars for the three of us here..”
Theodora's kind light green eyes turned to the guard captain, sergeant, and boy..
“Why are you standing there blankly? Sir Dylan, please sit down too..”
The guard captain, wearing a helmet, bowed slightly and bowed..
“Thank you for your kind consideration. The only one I have business with is this boy, so we'll just leave..”
“Then, grab a cup of tea and go. Miss Opiya's tea leaves skills have improved day by day and are now comparable to Miss Hayla's, so if you miss this opportunity, you will definitely regret it..”
“Ah, Theodora.-”
The woman who was putting down the teacup on the table groaned as if she was embarrassed..
‘That's the 'half elf'.’
She had bare calves exposed under a long, loose tunic, and had a strange appearance that made it easy to tell she was of this ethnic group even at first glance..
Looking at his fine facial features, he seemed to have come from the East, the subtle reddish-brown color on his skin resembled that of the Nudein, and he was as tall as any other Ghelan man..
Add to that the long, thin limbs, small head and slender torso, and mysterious dark blue hair, and I could understand why she was called a half-elf. Because there is beauty in an unfamiliar impression, it looks like something other than a human being..
Judging by his face alone, he looked to be in his mid-teens at best, but his height was tall enough to reach under Egon's chin, his unfamiliar features, and his mysterious eyes made it difficult to guess his age..
‘Are all the inhabitants of the prairie like that??’
The boy suddenly became curious about what kind of place the prairie was that stretched far to the west. I heard that both the beautiful shaman in front of me and the terrifying ‘Thunder Giant’ came from there. Maybe the prairies are the land of fairies and giants.
“I would like to thank you again, but due to my responsibilities, I cannot afford to enjoy my free time..”
“If that is the Lord's will, then there is nothing we can do. I'll take a good look at the boy, so you can leave..”
Just as the guard captain and sergeant were about to politely turn around, Theodora quickly added,.
“Oh, and - I think I said it once, but please come visit often..”
“……To come and find me?”
“The nose.”
“ah.”
Ellen agreed, taking the teacup handed to her by EOP while lying down on the sofa..
“Okay, get some treatment. Don’t go around feeling frustrated all the time..”
When pointed out the worn-out helmet, Dylan quietly shook his head..
“The princess's time and power cannot be consumed by trivial matters. And it's not as stuffy as it looks.”
“what. Who cares about you? People who see it feel frustrated.”
“ah.”
The paladin, who looked at the witch with a sour face, looked back at the guard captain and added,.
“Don't feel pressured. If you set a generous deadline of about six or seven months, the effort you have to put in per day won't be that big..”
“yes, i understand.”
The guard commander retreated with the sergeant, leaving an ambiguous answer. When the door closed, Egon was left alone and his body stiffened..
“please sit here.”
Iopiya filled her teacup and winked at the boy..
“Don't be too nervous. We are just trying to confirm at the request of Poynix..”
“If you say OK,.”
“Oh, that- what did you say it was called??”
“This is Egon. E Gon from Sobanhalz..”
“okay. We brought you here, Egon, to see what secrets are hidden in your blood..”
“……Blood, you mean??”
The boy's face turned a little pale, wondering what he was imagining. Anyway, Ellen sipped her tea and looked back at Theodora..
“How does it look??”
“Hmm, well.”
With a click, Theodora put down the teacup and looked at the boy with a cautious look. For a moment, her peridot-like eyes began to shed white light..
The hair and eyebrows, which were already light gold, turned white from the auspicious light emitted from the eyes. At that moment, Theodora's face was completely pure white, and she looked like an imaginary angel..
The naive Egon felt fear before beauty. The boy who was taking a step back soon fell on his butt..
““Huh, huh.” After a moment of feeling as if she was being lifted to the bottom of her heart, Theodora finally opened her eyes to reveal the truth. Returning to her usual light green eyes, she crossed her legs and shrugged her shoulders..
“I'm not sure.”
“That's right?”
“hmm. Lord Phoenics said that he thought it was a similar case to Mr. Goleman, but I am not sure..”
Glancing at the boy who was out of breath, she slowly added,.
“One thing is certain, that boy's 'special ancestor' is not a being with a divinity (God W)..”
“Once revealed, there doesn't seem to be any trait. I don't feel any unusual magical power, so it doesn't seem like blood from another dimension is connected..”
“Well, what do you mean?.”
When Egon asked a question with a confused face, Ellen's cold eyes turned to him..
“you. Have you ever heard of a family story??”
“Family crest, Seolhwayo?”
“It's a story that has been passed down from generation to generation from our ancestors. Well, my great-great-grandfather once took a female troll as his wife..”
“Yes, eh?”
She quietly shook her head at the boy's reaction..
“Look at that stupid face that doesn't know anything. “I’m certain they are descendants of trolls.” Egon blinked dumbly and then asked a question..
“Are you saying that some of my ancestors are trolls or something strange??”
“At least there are beings that are not human, your lord said..”
“Your Excellency the Prince?”
“okay.”
Perhaps to reassure the boy, Theodora nodded with a smile on his face..
“Lord Poynix is both an unknown and high-ranking knight and an advanced blood magician, with eyes that can instantly distinguish between humans and non-humans. In his opinion, you are far from a pure human being..”
“that••••••
“There is no need to be suspicious. Lord Phoenix's insight and insight into this race is very broad and deep. He saw two beings who displayed the powers and traits of their ancestors. Although they were both descendants of giants.”
“flaw. alternative.”
Descendants of this race.
At a story he could never have imagined, the boy sat down on the floor and blinked. The paladin looked down at him with soft eyes and then turned to Io Piya, who was sitting at the table..
“Since it is neither sacred nor rooted in another dimension, it is time for you to step forward..”
“uh……
The shaman called the half-elf rolled his wide eyes back and forth..
“That would be okay, right? My brother-in-law told me not to use magic related to the soul carelessly..”
“I heard from Lord Phoenix that it was just a trick to look into the soul.?”
“Oh, that's right..”
“It may be something that grabs and shakes the human soul like necromancy, but it is okay to observe it. I'll take care of the consequences, so you can relax..”
“……Is that so??”
As the shaman's sparkling eyes turned towards him, the boy took a deep breath..
“Wait, I don't feel relieved at all.-”
“Rest assured.”
IOPYA slowly got up from her seat and before she knew it, she was spreading a gloomy silver energy with her fingertips..
“Because it will end soon.”
A whispering voice echoed in the boy's ears. No, it was as if it was ringing inside my ears. Egon screamed at the strange sensation, but he couldn't hear himself scream..
“Take it easy, take it easy-”
‘'It's not comfortable, it's not!' was the only thing that lingered within my lips..
The very moment Egon, who was struggling, accidentally made eye contact with the half-elf, he fainted..
