The Unbound World’s “Normal” is Difficult

14. "Ordinary" charitable activities (5)

Samu......

Anna watched as her white breath melted into the night sky, holding her arms with both hands.

I returned to King's Landing for a few moments.

Elma, who was still hanging out like a shadow, is now pulling herself into the next room because of Baldo's sleeping.

Anna, who wanted to be completely alone, looked at the stars from the hotel balcony.

The light scattered in the night sky seems rather sparse than seen from the village of the hometown or from the Rodrigo weather mansion.

Perhaps the brightness of the stars is blurred by the brightness of the castle and castle town of Rouden.

It's such a big country.

It was Anna who somehow leaned on the handrail, but suddenly noticed that it was worn off, and she smiled bitterly.

That strange maid pushed me from behind and grabbed me.

(... no, it's not funny.)

If they throw you off the fourth floor, you can't normally be safe.

I stepped on it with the reflex nerve in front of Anna, and I managed to get over it.

I thought my heart would stop, but Elma told me that the goal was to be able to tolerate tension and restore calm immediately.

Ana-sama seems to be experiencing intense emotional ups and downs. It's a beauty in itself, but you still have to discipline yourself, the queen. It's all right, but Anna-sama can definitely do it. "

Always hugging the baby, she told her without fear.

No, in fact, for her, it's based on goodwill and even "normal" training.

She keeps on taking her heart rate with discipline and constantly recommending and encouraging water.

Is it about fifteen seconds before your heart rate calms down? Hmm... let's do it again. "

Hey, eh...

How many times have you been targeted since then?

Not only that, he was blown with a poison arrow and said, "Avoid it," he was sprayed with tear gas and said, "Avoid it," he was suddenly hypnotized and said, "Try to solve it."

Along with that, they beat up academic disciplines beyond the scope of women's cultivation, and were tailored to chemistry experiments.

(... what is a queen...?

Anna's eyes became empty for a moment.

Even when I was educated as an assassin in Rodrigo's Mansion, I didn't expect such a high level of skill.

(... what's he really thinking...)

Ana has a doubt about how many times she has traced it.

His identity as an assassin is well known.

Still, Elma didn't stick Anna out to the Knights because she decided it was easy and she felt it was worth it.

(... no, no. That's not true.)

Anna shook her head plump.

Rather, I can still understand that.

Despising assassins from other countries as tokens and making good use of them is a trick that nobles like anyway.

But this is not the case with Elma.

She always takes good care of Anna and stares at her with respectful eyes.

The exercise itself is quite harsh and unusual, but I feel a little bit more worried about words and manners.

That contradiction confuses Anna.

(He'll say, "That's right.")

Elma immediately praised Anna.

At that time, I would never use a pillow such as "for peasant origin".

Instead, she pointed out that she was deeply impressed by Anna's training in the cold village, such as "You have a sticky waist that makes you feel years of training" or "You have a perfect synchronization between the rhythm of the sun and your body."

Even Rodrigo, when praising Anna, used to say, "You've worked so hard to get out of prison."

(Even today...)

Unlike Elma, who shows unprecedented activity, Elma praises herself for dealing with it using tools and knowledge that can be handled by anyone.

Especially today, when we showed off the weeds that can be eaten, we said, "It's a new fact of knowledge with flesh and blood... a shocking shock to the soul...! After that, I was still very touched.

Apparently, she only knew about the edible weed in the book, where it was classified as "poison".

Although other plants had grown abnormally, the weed should have remained small for good reason.

"As long as it's big and embarrassing. In exchange, Anna-san's knowledge is all very closely tied to your experience, and it's wonderful."

It's been a rare experience for ordinary people.

It's going to be a great study.

Elma murmurs such words with all seriousness.

When I saw his straight eyes and his mysterious expression, I immediately realized that he didn't dislike it.

She's really impressed with Anna.

I'm not a nobleman, I couldn't write until a few years ago, I'm from a prison.

When Elma was in front of me, I kind of felt like I was filled with people.

(No. What are you thinking, me?)

Anna shook her head again.

What should I do if I am easily deceived?

Shinsen is the maid, the man of Rouden, and no doubt aristocratic.

A man who has exploited money from the village of Ana and Espiana, and has lived to expose his wealth.

(As I drew the blood of the sinner, as I rode through the winter at the grass roots, the blue bloody child lived on top of me in the sunny room. That's not fair.)

Grip your fists and consolidate your thoughts.

And yet, why does Elma's respectful gaze come back from the side?

Anna exhaled in disgust and finally got over the handrail.

Travel the pillars in a smooth motion before reaching the ground.

These technologies have also improved remarkably in the past few days.

He must have raised his level as an assassin now.

(Assassination... Kill the King of Luden.....)

While crushing the frost that fell on the lawn in a playful manner, she said so in her heart.

I felt uncomfortable with the task I had never had any doubts about before.

Reward Luden for exploiting Espiana and free the gentle Marquis Rodrigo from his troubles.

What's wrong with that?

I don't know myself.

The poor Anna is the victim.

The Marquis who saved me is a good man, so this act is justice.

I think so, but something catches me. And I don't know who that is.

The frustration made Anna's thoughts aggressive.

(... if that woman didn't brainwash you before I knew it, I would.)

Such an idea flashes in my mind by surprise.

I suppose our pace has been shattered since we met Elma.

I've been hypnotized before, and it's no wonder you were implying it without Anna's knowledge.

Anna scratched her thumbnail.

That said, the opponent is a cowardly Luden.

In front of you, even if you're kind, the truth is...

"What are you doing there?"

At that time, I heard a low voice, so I raised my face.

A tough man in a bra showed up with a starlight on his back.

Judging by his outfit, he was the knight in charge of today's surveillance.

(Shit, I was alarmed because of poor security)

Though the hotel is heavily guarded, few people are assigned to Anna, who is from a border country.

And now, just as the dropped candidate was leaving the building one after another, many of the knights were supposed to be concentrated at the entrance, including the height.

That didn't work.

But, ironically, thanks to Elma's guidance, his courage was quite impressive.

Anna didn't give a shake or anything, but she shook her neck like she was scared.

"I'm sorry, too. I didn't sleep so I thought I'd take a walk and went out. I'll be right back."

"Take a walk or wear it indoors?

"Stay indoors?... no, it's true! It's embarrassing."

While pretending to have noticed now, I whispered my tongue inside.

How dare you notice a man's footwear?

"Because you were blurry. I've shown you something."

"Oh, 'cause I was blurry'? I thought," I've come down from my room, Anastasia Don Rodrigo. "

Anna became more vigilant when her name was clearly called.

Retest the man in front of you and quickly collate the information in your brain.

Then he secretly took a breath.

Black-haired, blue-eyed, gentle man.

He saw it several times at the screening meeting.

Yes, as an eccentric who is more capable of royalty than the present king, but who has a reputation in other countries as a knighthood -

(Lucas von Rudendorf)

Anna jumped her alert level to the maximum at once.
