Chapter 119
Chapter 119
Noel decided to clean up the annoying assailant cadets first.
“Really? To my ears, it sounded like you were harassing someone by exploiting the power of the Duchy.”
“. . .”
“I am young, so I must have heard it wrong.”
Noel smiled innocently and asked. “Is that right?”
Then the flustered cadets repeated gibberish only saying that it ‘was not’. In the end, they bowed deeply to Noel and apologized.
After that, he could see them running away quickly with hurtful expressions.
Well, since you were scolded by a child like me, your pride must be hurt.
But if you didn’t want to be scolded, you shouldn’t have done something bad in the first place.
If Rieta had been there, she would have been terribly angry.
No matter what anyone says, Rieta was akin to a hero of justice.
Noel grinned as he thought of Rieta’s face with her eyebrows raised, and then immediately remembered the person who was bullied by them.
The foolish cadet who didn’t know the greatness of the Duchy.
“Are you okay?”
Noel asked, lowering his head.
Then the cadet leaning against the wall raised his head and looked up at Noel.
“. . . !”
The moment their eyes met. Noel’s eyes widened.
“You!”
Noel, in shock, pushed his head closer and shouted.
But that was a very risky move.
Immediately, he lost his balance and began to lean out of the window.
“Oh. Oh?!”
Noel groaned in bewilderment, and tried to straighten his posture, but he had already fallen off of the window sill.
Although it was only one storey high, it was still scary for a young boy.
“Uwaak!”
Noel squeezed his eyes shut and screamed.
If I fall to the ground, it will hurt a lot!
As he thought of that, power surged through his body.
But when he actually hit the ground.
Noel was surprised that it wasn’t as hurt as he thought it would be.
Maybe it’s because he had spun around as he fell, landing butt first.
My butt is so strong.
He lifted his head cautiously, praising his proud buttocks.
“. . . !”
And he realized the truth.
Noel hadlanded safely on Elisha Maureen’s body, who was the cadet that was sitting leaning against the wall of the building.
He hadn’t done so on purpose, but it was possible that Elisha had caught him.
Because Elisha’s hand was on his waist.
Noel’s face turned red because he was too embarrassed to receive Elisha’s help and to sit on his stomach.
He didn’t know about other guys, but he didn’t want to receive this guy’s help!
Soon, Elisha started talking to Noel.
“@#$%^&*?”
Elisha spoke in the Kingdom language that Noel could not understand at all.
“. . .”
As he stared at Elisha, Elisha smiled as if he had forgotten.
“Sorry. I was an idiot to expect that the Lord’s Kingdom language might have improved a bit.”
“It has improved!”
“Is that so? It is very unfortunate that we cannot confirm that.”
“Ugh, Elisha Maureen!”
“Yes.”
“Is that how you treat your savior?!”
“Savior?”
Elisha dared to copy that part of Noel’s words like a parrot.
“Yes, your savior.”
Noel lifted his chin slightly.
It was because Elisha’s face, which he faced as he came down like this, was really pathetic.
It must have been that he was being beaten before Noel arrived.
“I see. Savior.”
This time Elisha glanced down on his stomach, repeating the same words.
Perhaps he wanted to place emphasis on the fact that he had just saved Noel from a fall.
“I have wounds all over my body from catching the Lord.”
“Do not be ridiculous. You were just getting beaten up a few moments ago. You are here on the recommendation of the Duke in the first place, so why are you being told that you know nothing about the Duchy?”
“Because all they know is that I am a foreigner.”
“Are you being beaten so stupidly for that?! Are you still Rieta’s servant?”
“Ughh . . .”
As Noel was arguing, Elisha held his hand near his heart for a moment.
“Uh, uh? Are you sick?”
Noel panicked and hurried down from his stomach.
“Yes. It’s been such a long time since I’ve heard the Princess’s name from someone else’s mouth . . . I feel as though my heart is pounding at that beautiful sound.”
“. . .”
“If possible, could you repeat your words? I want to hear it again.”
Noel was worried that Elisha’s ‘Rieta disease’ had developed to a fairly serious condition.
He is so moved by just hearing her name.
“. . . A guy that doesn’t even write a letter, and he gets beaten up.”
“Ah?”
“A letter, a letter!”
Noel recalled the sight of a gloomy Rieta, saying that no letter came.
If he had transcribed his feelings into the letter, if he wrote that he would have enjoyed nothing more than hearing her name spoken out loud . . . Rieta would have been so delighted that she would leap on the spot, at the front door.
