2. The Lord is with you (1)

It was a familiar dream now. memory of a man.

A flag symbolizing the Legion fluttered above the tent. It was an army stationed in the plains. The exhausted and injured soldiers stood out. Their eyes do not even feel the slightest hope.

It was like dried fish.

As soon as I got off the horse, I heard a mocking voice.

“Hey, look over there, did the crows come?”

“Are they masters of escape?”

He must have been annoyed, but the man’s expression did not change. He fastened the black cloak over his armor and moved without hesitation.

There was no soldier to stop the man. It was the same until they entered the red tent, the tent where the commander was staying.

Sitting in it was a woman with a pale complexion. The detailed appearance was unknown. Only those tired eyes were locked in his brain.

“It’s been a while since I saw you, Sir.”

“… … It is an honor to see you again.”

The man bowed his head in a moderation manner, but he did not attract the attention of the woman who was reviewing the pile of papers. I only glanced at his existence.

It didn’t take long for the papers to drop on the table. Only then did the woman move her weary eyes to the man.

The man quietly opened his mouth.

“I am curious about the situation on the eastern front in the islands.”

“… … What is the situation?”

“Huh,” she laughed. It doesn’t seem funny.

The woman slowly got up and walked outside the tent. The man naturally followed suit.

She showed me the battlefield beyond the tent.

The blood-stained ground, the devoured corpses, and crows roared, creating a bleak atmosphere. And beyond that, unidentified trees made up of six pieces were growing thickly.

The woman, who had been staring at the scenery indifferently, said to the man.

“It is always the same. There are not enough soldiers, there are no competent knights, and the number of enemies increases day by day. At least give them supplies on time.”

“… … I will make a suggestion when I return to the system.”

Even at the man’s words, the woman only snorted. A look that doesn’t even look forward to it.

After that, silence fell for a while. The eyes of the woman who had been staring at the battlefield indifferently were dyed with a gloomy light before she knew it.

“Please, please. I can’t stand it anymore.”

“I am doing my best. However, as you know, the situation on the western and northern fronts… … .”

The man’s words were unfinished. It was because before that, the woman pointed her finger across the battlefield. A wriggling, moving tree made of flesh.

No matter who saw it, it did not belong to nature. A vague fear settled in the eyes of the man who had not shown any fragment of emotion until now.

“… … Delphirem is coming.”

A trembling voice filled with fear and hatred.

The eyes of the woman staring at me were the last.

Panting, I got up from the bed.

It was that unknown dream again. A sense of reality as if the boundary between dream and reality is collapsing, and a pillow drenched in cold sweat.

He suffered from a shattering headache and a burning thirst. I gulped down the water from the canteen I always kept by my bedside when I slept, and soon noticed a sense of incongruity.

A flipped calendar and an unidentified letter on the table.

“… … f*ck this.”

I was taken aback at first, but it was a precedent. My hand quickly opened the envelope.

My eyes read the sentence quickly.

To. Dear, to my Ian Percus

Have you ever thought about love?

These days, I have a deep concern about that feeling. I don’t know if it’s because I started dating, or it’s been a few months since I’ve been separated from my lover.

Looking back, I think love is a tree. You don’t even notice it until it sprouts from the seed. Then, before I knew it, it had grown in size, and now it is casting a shadow over my chest.

Of course it’s about you. I still get a fever when I think of how he flirted with the innocent me and pretended not to know. Confess honestly. Was it on purpose?

It is also true that the training dispatch for that year was decided to be sent to an orphanage. Requests to scout out and wipe out the surrounding monsters were everywhere. Of course, among them was a village located in the Percus Territory.

You once said that if you are a noble, you should serve to protect your family fief. Then, why did you decide to send the trainee to the orphanage that year? After much thought, I have come to this conclusion.

‘This man has had his eyes on me for a long time!’

That’s why I played with my naive heart, which had never been in a relationship before. It’s a shameless thing to do. May the heavenly judgment be upon this wicked playboy.

And be blessed again.

If you’ve been keeping an eye on me beforehand, thank you for that too. Love is such a scary feeling. The fact that I became your woman makes me think that everything in the past is a blessing and a fate.

I’m glad I fell for you, Ian. Thank you for letting me know what happiness is.

Above all, even if your intentions were impure, there is no way to disparage the heroic struggle you displayed that day.

It doesn’t help your grades, and no one has ever forced you to sacrifice, but you raised your sword for the weak and defended them even when they were in disrepair.

I knew then. At first glance, they are fearsome and hide many things, but in fact, there is innocence inside them.

It was from that day. What interested you.

Until then, I had only felt threatened, but I inadvertently thought that you had a reason for doing so.

If you hadn’t threatened me, I wouldn’t have been able to repel the raid and destroy the nest.

Thank you very much again. Because you played with my heart as an innocent girl, because I suffered for a long time from the fever of love, and because I was able to stand by your side in the end.

Everything is by your grace. Immanuel.

I miss you, Ian. I am always praying for you.

P.S. 1: Didn’t the Empire’s bastard recently get an appointment to Arankot at the western end of the continent? It’s ugly.

PS 2: Don’t be relieved that you are in the system. The celestial spirit is watching over all the world. If you cheat, you will be punished.

From. Recalling love far away, from Lucia.

On the second day of the Wheel Month in the year 571 of the Imperial calendar.

It was still a letter full of enigmatic words. I put my forehead on my forehead for a while and captured various contents.

The last letter was ‘hunting festival’, but now it was ‘practice dispatch’. Judging by the timing, it seemed like they were talking about a substitute practice for the upcoming final exams.

Are there any problems there too? why the hell

The expression ‘raid’ was ugly to look at. It was the same at the last hunting festival, but he didn’t know if he would have to prepare for a life-and-death battle. My back hurts already.

Why did the heavenly god give me such an ordeal? I wanted to go to the temple right away and argue, but my eyes, which had been skimming through the lines before that, suddenly stopped.

It was where the sender was written. The name of the person who sent the letter from the future is ‘Lucia’.

It wasn’t ‘sepia’.

I couldn’t help but burst out laughing in disbelief.

“It’s rubbish, it’s completely…”

Apparently, the future me had multiple fiances.

I was dumbfounded and evaporated and let out a deep sigh. My head was blown away. As I was about to put the letter in my arms, I saw the writing on the back of the letter.

‘Observation’

Scribbled, two letters with different handwriting.

I stared at the writing without a word, then put the letter in my bosom.

Oddly enough, that word was engraved in my brain.

**

The second letter arrived, but my work did not change.

I had to go to class first. I had to train, and I had to take the elixir.

‘Dragon’s Blood’ was an item belonging to the upper class among elixirs. If taken carelessly, fatal side effects may occur.

It was better to take it under the guidance of a trusted expert like Professor Derek.

However, my efforts to collect the ‘dragon’s blood’ had no choice but to hesitate.

The box containing the ‘dragon’s blood’ was empty. I moved my magic just in case.

Then, like a waterfall, a flow of magical power poured down the blood road.

Startled, I immediately had to calm down the rampaging mana. The amount of magic in his body had more than doubled. Then there was only one possibility.

It meant that he had already consumed the ‘dragon’s blood’. I don’t have any memories like that at all.

“I’ll turn… … .”

I was afraid. I lost my memory again. In the meantime, I wondered what the hell I had been doing.

Last time, I beat the ceria until it was kneaded. After that, I managed to sort it out somehow, but my teeth still grind when I think about the events of that day.

As a result, it worked out well, but the process was very difficult. It was a month that did not suit my stability-oriented temperament at all.

But on the other hand, thinking about it, I wondered if I had done something I couldn’t handle again.

My skills have grown incomparably compared to a month ago. I had reliable colleagues like senior Seria and Elsie, and a teacher like Professor Derek that I could trust and consult with on anything.

In any case, I didn’t have any trouble. I forcibly eased the anxiety that was creeping up on me.

Fortunately, the whispers didn’t follow me as soon as I went outside.

I heard whispers a few times, but it was inevitable because rumors about me had already spread.

A sigh of relief escaped from my mouth. Heck, if I had another accident, it wasn’t me. The enemy who pretended to be me.

The moment I was walking with such a comfortable thought.

Hook, something pulled my arm. Between adjacent buildings, into dark alleys.

The strength was beyond my imagination, so I had no time to resist. And with a thump, my body pushed right up to the wall.

My dumbfounded eyes scanned the culprit’s figure. It was a familiar face.

Silver hair that seemed to be woven with melted silver thread, and light pink eyes that tickled the hearts of many men.

And the immoral body that reminds me of disturbing thoughts hit my eyes one after another. So I couldn’t understand even more.

Lady, why?

However, she chewed her lips and just glared at me with eyes overflowing with hostility and hatred.

“……What are you thinking?”

What are you talking about, before you even ask.

The saintess shouted while holding my collar. A voice heated with resentment and anger.

“You’re asking what’s your intention!”

It’s because it’s more like dealing with enemies.

All I could do was mutter to myself.

what the hell did you do
