Benzel was instantly red-hot with shame that he could feel his whole face burning.
It was fortunate that it was dark.
When he arrived, the Duke of Luverne also arrived accompanied by his escort.
“Again?”
Nina smiled slightly at his words.
“This wicked man was bothering this lady here. I stopped him and asked for a duel in her honor.”
This is the result.
Nina tapped the passed-out person under her feet as if she was touching something dirty.
“Are you hurt anywhere, Young Lady?”
The Lady with brunette hair nodded when asked by Nina. Tears were left on her cheeks, but her sparkling eyes were fixed on her.
“I’ll escort you to the party.”
Nina reached out, and the Lady put her frozen hand on her arm. The moment the two disappeared, Adrian slightly touched his forehead and called Jean.
“Vice Commander.”
“Yes, yes.”
Jean dragged the outstretched human on the floor to one side and woke him up before warning him.
The angry man realized who his opponent was at first glance and immediately lost his spirits. Then Jean said, ‘Go back to sleep,’ and hit him.
The man dropped to the floor again with one blow.
The appearance of being familiar with all this embarrassed Benzel.
Adrian asked him.
“Is the conversation over?”
“Yes. Thank you for your generosity, your Grace.”
“You’d better lift your pen first from now on.”
Benzel bowed his head, remembering Nina’s words to contact her first.
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Over-wondered, Nina was seen letting the Young Lady go back to the party. As Nina leaned down and kissed the Young Lady on the back of her hand, she seemed to hear a “kyaaah.”
Nina soon returned with light steps.
“I’m here, your Grace.”
Then she gave Benzel a look of, ‘What, you’re still here?’ Then she quickly pushed Jean away and took her original position before asking.
“What about Kell and Pan?”
“Still upstairs.”
“They’re both very popular.”
“They’re good at acting.”
In the exchange of words, Benzel felt a sense of alienation. Before the party left him, Nina glanced back at him and waved slightly. Benzel greeted her back with his hand on his chest.
He felt better because it seemed to have ended neatly.
At that time, the collapsed man groaned as if he had already come to his senses, and Benzel decided to warn him one more time.

– I failed. It’s impossible.
– That’s all right. I’ll help you.
– Really?
– Yes, you just have to summon me. However······. There’s no other choice, I’ll help······. By······. I will······.
The words were cut off, and she couldn’t hear them well.
Nina thought that they’re talking about something important.
– It’s easy······. So······.
– It’s okay.
Am I the one answering?
It sounds like my voice.
– If we can meet again.
“What?”
Her eyes were opened wide and a dazed voice came out of her throat.
Nina, who stood up in a daze, scratched her cheek.
‘What kind of dream is that?’
She has never had such a dream. Dreams are usually accompanied by images, however, this dream was only lightly heard by her.
It was a very unique dream.
‘Besides, isn’t that the title of the original book?’
It seemed like a conversation between her and someone, but she couldn’t tell who the other person was.
‘I don’t know······.’
If it’s really important, she’ll remember in time.
Nina thought so, crawled out of her bed, then opened the window.
‘The weather is nice.’
She grinned with laughter.
It’s the day Lord Louis comes.
────── •❆• ──────
The Dark Knights were on complete holiday after a long time.
Adrian said, ‘I’ve had enough of it, stop following me.’ So Nina decided to obey.
He wasn’t even going to a ball, so he gave everyone a two-day vacation, and for the first time in a while, the knights were on vacation.
Kell watched Charlotte choose a small portrait at the market.
“Do you want it?”
At his question, Charlotte glanced at him and nodded her head lightly. Suddenly, Charlotte came to talk to him first, but she only said very little and that she wanted to go to the market.
Kell said he would gladly guide her, and Raja followed them like a bonus person.
Raja mumbled quietly.
“Hey, are these all portraits of our Commander?”
“I think so······.”
He was curious as to what kind of portrait they were selling and he can’t believe it’s the portrait of their commander.
Kell looked at the portrait with an astringent face. The range in sizes from small ones drawn on lockets to palm-sized ones, and the qualities were poor.
It can only be seen that she wore black and had silver hair and pigtails.
Charlotte poked her nose almost as if she was getting sucked in and looked at the portrait of the small lock she picked.
The two men immediately saw what she chose.
“Oh, it’s kind of similar.”
“Yes, the image.”
Charlotte nodded satisfactorily and snapped the lid shut.
The owner of the store, listening to the conversation of the three, opened his eyes wide and asked.
“Are you members of the Dark Knights?”
Charlotte shut her mouth like a clam, and Raja scratched his head. The good-natured Kell stepped up, smiled, and said.
“Yes, we are. It’s amazing to see the Commander’s portrait.”
“Hey! These are the Dark Knights!”
“······That······.”
Kell dropped his words in the unexpected situation.
“What? The Dark Knights?”
“Wow, you’re so tall!”
“Handsome!”
“Are you really a member of the Dark Knights? Where is the black and silver uniform? Did she really beat people 100 to 1?”
“No, I heard she cut down thousands of bellacs at once.”
“I heard she saves Young Ladies from bad noblemen.”
“She’s nice.”
“You are hot.”
“Hey, what’s your name? How old are you?”
“I have a daughter.”
Charlotte began to falter back. When Kell saw her shoulder slightly shaking, he grabbed her by the shoulder and said.
“I’m sorry. We will be leaving now. Raja, pay for these.”
“What? Why would I, uh, hey!”
When Kell started dragging Charlotte, Raja cursed with his mouth and bounced a little silver coin.
As the owner snatched the silver, Raja quickly escaped from the crowd and started running. Light pink, beige, and light purple hair crossed the square.
Due to the large crowd, there was no difficulty in getting rid of the people.
“Ah, really! You’re good at running by yourself aren’t you?”
“I ran away with Charlotte. Haha.”
Kell smiled then raised the hand that held her and released it. Charlotte said to Raja.
“The money······.”
“Forget it. Just buy me a beer. I’m thirsty because of all the running.”
Charlotte’s eyes blinked quickly. As she nodded, the three entered a suitable nearby pub.
Since she decided to place an order herself, she approached the faraway counter hesitantly.
Apparently, it was Charlotte’s first time coming to such a place, so Kell felt like seeing a baby duck floating in the water.
Raja glared at him.
“Stop it. She’s grown up too.”
“Yeah, but······.”
After placing an order at the counter, Charlotte returned to the table and sat down.
“Thank you, both.”
When she greeted politely, Kell smiled and said, ‘That’s nothing, we’re colleagues anyway.’
Raja said as he quickly looked at the locket around her neck.
“By the way, our Commander is amazing, but······. I didn’t expect her portrait to be sold like that.”
“Amulet.”
Charlotte looked up.
“What?”
When Raja looked at her, Charlotte opened the locket and said,
“The maids said it’s sold as an amulet to defeat bellacs.”
“······What would the temple say if they knew.”
Kell was speechless and muttered. Raja hummed and snorted.
“What would the temple say? Everyone knows our relationship with the temple.”
The beer was served, and Charlotte touched her coin pocket and said,
“Order side dishes, too. It’s on me.”
It was a very courageous social statement for her, so the two did not fail to order a cheap snack.
