I Am The Commander Of The Second Male Lead's Knights

“Really? Here?”

It’s not his lab, it’s the Duke’s townhouse.

I don’t think there are many supplies for research here, but I can’t believe he’s already mostly done. Nina admired Randell’s ability anew.

He shook his head.

“It takes materials to make ready-made products, and I think it’s still going to take a while.”

“For the moment, it’ll be enough to go back to the estate.”

“That’s about it.”

Randell swept up his hair.

He was working on creating a sealing ball to seal the pieces of spirit fragments. Nina tiptoed her heels and looked over his shoulder.

“Can I come in and open the window?”

“Well, no.”

Nina tilted her head and looked at him, who was resolute not to let anyone in the room he was using as a lab.

“No?”

“No.”

“Then open the window yourself······.”

“No.”

“Why not?”

“It’s annoying when the wind blows and the paper flies.”

“There was such a reason.”

Nina anxiously looked at him. Randell liked to face her golden eyes.

Light seems to be moving constantly inside. He stared at them as if bewitched, but soon, desperately closed them, because he thought there would be no end to it.

“Go now.”

“You’re heartless.”

“No I’m not.”

He wondered how to explain the superhuman ability he had to employ, to open the door during his research. Normally, he would have ignored a hundred times, even if it was the Emperor.

At least, Nina was the only one he didn’t get angry with when she came out of the door and talked face to face.

“Are you eating?”

“Yes.”

Nina squinted her eyes.

“It’s not just bread and water, is it?”

“No, I’m really okay?!”

Suddenly she grabbed his arm. As she pulled him out of the room, Nina turned her body around and slammed the door on her back.

BOOM-!!

There was a heavy sound of something exploding inside. Dust fell as the whole house throbbed.

“That surprised me.”

Nina took her back off the door. Randell opened the door and ran inside as if he were jumping. Nina followed after him.

“Randell? Cough, Cough. What the hell’s going on?”

“The barrier is broken. As expected, the durability of the material was weak.

“It’s going to explode like this when the barrier is broken? It’s dangerous. Don’t do this in a townhouse room.”

“Nina, don’t move. I can’t see the bead.”

Nina stopped with her eyes squinting at the words. In the meantime, people flocked to the door.

“Nina? What’s going on?”

“Dame Nina, are you all right?”

“Commander?”

“Yes, Yes, I’m fine, and Randell is fine. It’s nothing, so you can go back.”

Nina waved to Jean as he was coming in.

“No, Jean, don’t come in. It’s–.”

Then something touched the tip of her toes and Nina leaned over as she swept through the smoke.

“Randell, stay there.”

“Wait, Nina, don’t touch······.”

Nina held up the crystal bead with both hands. Her face looked very unpleasant, but there seemed to be no other problem.

“Nina, are you okay?”

She nodded her head.

It’s okay except for the unpleasantness of touching rotten meat.

“It’s all right except for the unpleasantness.”

She said cheerfully, but her voice snapped. The crystal bead began to burn brightly in her hand.

“Nina! Don’t!”

“What I don’t······.”

Nina frowned.

She started to lose energy. Two lines of spirit crests engraved in her arm shone in five colors at the same time.

‘These things?’

No, can the spirits force people like this?

Her field of vision turned black for a moment.

-I am the real Proxy!
-Get lost, Nodolu.

A flash of light and words passed by in a moment.

– A heavy burden on you –
– I’ll give you a present instead.

These are the voices I heard in my dream.

– I’ll give you my protection.
– You’re the only one who trusted me. So-.

Nina fell on one knee as her body could not hold out any longer the loss of energy.

She didn’t even realize she was kneeling.

She felt dizzy.

At that time, the buzzing sound in her head stopped and a word rang violently.

– Destroy it.

The next moment, the bead broke and its insides were vaporized and flew away.

Kiekiekie.

A small scream was heard.

“HUK!”

Nina touched the ground with both hands. Her eyes were spinning.

“Nina!”

Someone held her immediately. Just by covering her with his arms, Nina knew who it was.

“Adrian······.”

“What are you doing!”

His voice was fierce. Nina became resentful and shut her mouth.

“No, I’m not······.”

She couldn’t say well that she didn’t do it.

Instead, she said drooping.

“I’m hungry.”

Adrian frowned but began to walk among the people without further ado.

“Everyone go back.”

At his words, the employees disappeared after looking at each other, and Jean and Louis sent the knights back.

Randell followed suit.

“It’s because of me. There’s a problem with my experiment, so… is Nina okay? Nina.”

Nina barely raised her hand as a sign that she was okay. Her hands tremble with hunger.

“Nina is fine. Sieur Randell, go and look at the lab.”

“No, rather, Nina······.”

It was the first time he saw Nina fall or get hurt in front of his eyes, so Randell’s hands trembled and he felt sick.

How can the Duke of Luverne be so calm?

‘I’m losing more strength. Is it because I’m relaxed?’

Nina closed her eyes and leaned over. But her mind went back quickly.

‘The piece is gone.’

It’s gone.

I didn’t purify it like a saint, but I could get rid of it.

‘No, the story said that only the saint could do that. It said no one else will be able to do it except her.’

But why am I capable of doing it?

And what the hell is that voice?

‘Am I capable of destroying the pieces? Maybe it’s because I signed a contract with two higher spirits, but I’m so exhausted.’

After grumbling, Nina knew she hadn’t lost her mind this time.

‘It’s better than last time.’

The threat was eliminated and she was fine too. She was hungry, but this was a reasonable compromise.

As soon as they came down to the kitchen, the kitchen maids lowered themselves, taken aback by the sudden appearance of their master.

“Anything that can be eaten quickly.”

“Master, we’ll make it for you. Please head to the dining room.”

The butler from Count Chara house came running in a cold sweat and laughed.

“Give me something to drink for now.”

Randell jumped into the kitchen, moved skillfully, and made sugar water.

The maids were embarrassed, “No, that precious sugar.” “Oh, that sugar.” But there was no one to stop the Sage in front of the master.

“Nina, can you drink this?”

She didn’t have to be treated as critically ill, but Nina drank the sugar water he gave to her mouth.

“How do you like it? Are you okay?”

Randell’s eyes were shaking so much that Nina even laughed.

Giggling she reached to touch his cheek.

“I’m fine.”

Only then did Randell’s face become relieved.
