Running Away From The Hero!

Ambition - Memories of a Lady (36)

# 47 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

The battalion moves with the rattling hoof of a horse.

A large-scale expedition of the Empress' troops was completed.

I worked hard in my own way... But what could I do without my strength?

Of course not.

I was just dragged away helplessly to join the war with the Empress.

Is it fortunate that we are going to a region that has not yet been fully at war and to support the great imperial master, General Felstein?

Not acting alone reduces the risk a lot.

But there's something awkward.

“That's amazing, sir! ”

“Really?"

“Yes!”

It was a young man staring at me with a sparkle in his eyes.

“You look good. ”

“Only then can you serve him with the esteemed Ser Ast! ”

If you bring 10 passers-by and ask them what they look like, they will say they look good, whether it's a boy or a girl.

He's that handsome and smiles well.

If a handsome guy broke up, he would look like shit to the man.I thought he was just like this guy.

However,

“Hey, what are you? ”

“Yes?”

I could feel that it was strange to like too much.

“People, they can't be perfect. ”

“What's that supposed to mean? ”

“A good-looking man with a handsome face and a good personality? You think that makes sense? ”

“Ah, Lord Ast? ”

The guy who arrived not long ago is handsome and understands the good things in the house, but also has a good character.

The best part is, no matter how far away the heir is from the Earl's youngest, he still looks at me well!

There's no way those nobles can do that!

If a peasant is born with a trending aristocrat, isn't it the noble's heart that wants to trample him down?

Respect? There's no way a person with such a foolish mind can survive in a noble world where a Hand Helper is busy!

It is a world of nobles that is harder to survive than the jungle, a world of thorough herbaceous cultivation.

There can't be such a thing as the discipline of a high-ranking noble living in such a place!

“Where did you come from? ”

“W-what does that mean? ”

“Isn't he from an organization? ”

“That can't be right! ”

The man who shouted the drain is gathering his gaze.

Everyone was curious about what was going on.

“Ugh... ”

She lowered her head in embarrassment, gathering a lot of gaze at herself, and said to me in a grumbling voice.

“Sir Ast, did I do something wrong? ”

Wrong? If wrong, too perfect was wrong.

I can't believe my butler's successor is such a perfect guy.

It doesn't suit you, does it?

Think about it. The princess and Lord Leah, and me and this guy together.

Huh...? Looks good on you.

Like a cute and beautiful princess, Lord Leah comes out with a picture if she just stands still. W-we were beautiful women.

And the new butler, Earl Cesar's youngest, Marev Cesar!

Oh, I see. They all fit together...... You look great without me!

Why are there only handsome, beautiful people around me?

I, too, look good!

He's not handsome, but he's not ugly!

It just looks so normal and the surrounding specs are too high!

“Damn……! ”

“Yes?”

“You are a spy. It's a spy. It must be a spy! ”

“Go, what are you talking about? ”

I keep chasing down the embarrassing underling.

This guy must be a spy.

Can't be the perfect guy for me, right?

Must be a spy from somewhere.

“Sir Ast, don't you like me? ”

I was spied on to see if my horse had been hurt or if the grass had died.

Huh! You lousy spy!

If it were a disciple from a higher noble, ‘Ha! Where is the insult to this body, the son of the late Earl Cesar?’ It is normal to ask for a duel.

Once again, the world of aristocrats is a scary world full of plumbers!

The one who makes that poor face with such an unfair voice is a world that cannot survive.

Because if you look weak, you'll get eaten!

“Ahh... What are you doing again, Ast? ”

The Empress looked out of the wagon's window and stared at me slightly.

“N-no, I was talking to my subordinate for a moment. ”

For a moment, I almost said I was interrogating a spy without even knowing it.

I was so excited, I almost said something dangerous.

An Imperial spy named Erl Cesar's son.

Even if it was a real spy, Earl Cesar couldn't stand for it.

“Your Majesty……. ”

When my thirst stopped, he looked at the princess who saved him with tearful eyes.

“Phew……. You said Maref, right?”

“Yes. I am Marev Cesar, the youngest of Erl Cesar. ”

“Well, I don't care about the family. What I want is his unique ability. Do you understand what I'm saying? ”

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

“Yes. Even if he looks like that, he's quite capable.... ”

The princess who was looking at me tilted her head.

“Anyone?”

No, why does it end with a question?

“Your Grace?"

“Mmmm... Ast is capable... Hmm... Do you have it? Is that an ability? Growing a job is a skill, but it's... ”

It was so sad to see her moaning alone.

Of course, I did not regret the content.

“Maybe there is. Maybe.”

Thought about it for a long time, the king gave a vague answer.

“It's not that you're talented, but you say you will be, and you probably will be? ”

“So what do we do? I can't remember. ”

“Just tell me you don't. ”

“I told you I only use people with special abilities, but it's weird to say no. ”

“I'm nothing special. You don't have the skills, so you have to cut it! To His Majesty, and furthermore, to His Majesty! ”

I've got a chance.

The Empress herself said it first, so it can't be said no.

As a royal, you won't be able to take back what you said out of your mouth once!

So cut me off!

Cut off this incompetent butler with no special skills!

“Sir Ast is incompetent, no way! ”

The spy, or his nephew, who was listening next to him shouted.

... Why are you so mad if I don't have the skills?

“The Imperial Chamberlain knows how great Sir Ast is. ”

“Oh, yeah? ”

A rumor I don't know was circulating among the Imperial Chamberlain.

Was I the only one who didn't have contact with Imperial Chamberlain?

“Lord Ast has become a commoner and heir to Her Majesty, and a nobleman in the shortest time in the imperial court! ”

“That's right. ”

The princess nodded her head and listened to him like she had never heard before.

“You were there with Earl Maures to uncover the truth of the assassination of the envoys in the Kingdom of Peleros and to reveal the evil plot of the Kingdom of Mercia under all circumstances! ”

I had to slightly avoid the compliment of being overwhelmed with reasoning and mobility.

It's not the right time to say you got it.

“His powers of deduction and insight have already gone viral in the imperial court. I even heard that Elves came to the Imperial Court by rescuing Elves from the evil conspiracy. ”

“Have you heard the rumors? ”

I kept it a secret, but I couldn't help but hear the rumors.

I came to say thank you... I mean, I've seen a lot of Elves come here to take a High Elf who doesn't know what they're doing.

No. Before that, the appearance of an Elf sleeping in a flower bed was hard to miss among imperial servants. It was a rumor even I heard.

“Lord Astor is powerless! Then which Imperial Chamberlain is capable? ”

I can't thank you enough for putting gold on my face!

“I heard.”

Something about the king seemed to make me feel better. I had to bow my head.

“Is that so?”

I missed my chance to get fired.

And what I missed out on was,

“What is this? ”

He was a serious wreck and a dead Felstein general.

# 48 Their Reason: The Reason of a Spy

- What kind of man is that?

As she drifted away, she had no choice but to shout at the Empire Empress.

- Hmm……. People……?

- People are people. Why can't you be sure?

- We don't know why he took the wreckage. How am I supposed to know what a dragon doesn't know?

It is too disrespectful to speak to us, called the Great Race.

Ordinary humans may ask for the sin, but this child has inherited our blood. On behalf of my clan, I was forced to carry a fragment of evil.

We promised her that we would listen to anything if it didn't threaten the balance of the world, and that promise was valid even now when she didn't have a fragment of evil.

That's why I couldn't treat it lightly.

- He's noticing me!

However, there was only the Empress who knew who I was, so there was also only the Empress who could express this anger.

- What are you talking about?

- I know I'm a spy. They're telling me I'm a spy! You didn't tell him who I was, did you?

- Is there a reason?

I will not.

The Empire is also confidential about the fragments of evil.

I had no reason to inform a commoner's butler or anything like that.

- Well, how?

I have lived as a human for a long time through teachings.

I thought you said the Lord chose me as his watcher because he thought I could melt easily into the human world!

Detecting my acting like that in an instant, finding out I'm a spy!

I thought I wouldn't be discovered until after I finished investigating the wreckage of evil, and I didn't think I'd be found out in two months!

I couldn't even imagine.

- Did Ast really notice?

- Otherwise you have no reason to call me a spy!

- Maybe it's just a word.

- A mere mortal carries a spy on a nobleman's boy? Is that common sense?

Even among the nobles, it was a minimum duel request.

He has a family and he says he's a spy. What kind of insult would that be?

- That's right.

- Yes, he noticed! What am I supposed to do now that they're going to stop me?

You won't even notice I'm a dragon.

I can't imagine a human being who can tell a dragon he's a spy.

Perhaps a human, but for some other reason a spy entered the Imperial Court must think that much.

- We need to get his eyes back.

- It's not easy. That guy......

It was quite a long silence.

He frowned and wondered what to say.

- Because he's crazy.

- Is that so...?

The princess grumbled for a long time, and I couldn't answer anything. Astra doesn't know much about Humans.

Isn't the reason I came here in the first place to learn about the human and evil fragments of Astra on behalf of the tribe?

And after a while,

“This……. ”

“Let me write you a letter. ”

A letter to the generals of the Kingdom of Mercia who launched a surprise attack without even declaring war.

< How are your parents? >

From the beginning, I saw that I asked my parents how they were doing, and I picked up my pen and wrote the first periodic report to my family.

< This bastard is crazy. >
