The Knight Wants To Be in a Relationship

6. Cheap Missions

***

After she was formally assigned her duties, Rebecca took her and me into her consulting room.

The blind woman who entered the room immediately opened her mouth.

“It is called Seolhyang.”

“My name is Evan.”

The woman who introduced herself as Seolhyang began to explain her request by placing her hand on her chest.

“I want to go to Avirens, a city in the north.”

“Avirinth…?”

“You’ve never heard of it? It’s just a quiet town in the north.”

When I glanced at Rebecca at her place name, which I had never heard of before, she immediately took one of her maps and pointed me to the location of Abi Lyns.

A city tucked away in the corner of the north, a week by car from where you are now.

It was a city that made one wonder what the hell was going on in such a place, but it was an unwritten rule for adventurers to not ask about the circumstances of the client.

“What are you going to Avirens for?”

Of course, Rebecca, who is not an adventurer, immediately asked Seolhyang for her purpose as if she did not know such rules. As if Seolhyang was nothing, she immediately opened her mouth.

“There is someone looking for it.”

“I see. It’s okay to go all the way to Avirinth, and it’s not a bad quest if you’re taking on an escort mission in the meantime…… Evan, are you really going to do it?”

“I have to. Because you said you did.”

“I can’t stop you from doing it, but…… All right. Then Seolhyang. Appointment request, thank you. Evan’s ransom, a low-ranking adventurer, was calculated based on the industry average…….”

“It’s cheaper than I thought.”

“…… You’re a low-level adventurer. Right. Have you arranged a carriage to Avirinth? If it’s still there, at a cheap price from the guild-“

Rebecca, who knew that it would be a huge loss for me to be a first-class adventurer in a short time, taking on such a mission now, was reluctant to accept a nomination, but I did not dwell on the money.

What was the reason you decided to become an adventurer in the first place? To find a lover For the beauty in front of you, it’s not a waste of a few pennies.

However.

‘…… The person you’re looking for isn’t a man, right?’

Remembering what Seolhyang had said earlier, I was very worried.

I wonder if he’s going to deliver a woman to another man.

* * *

Even after accepting the cheap request, the guild did not neglect Evan. Rather, he took the lead by arranging a wagon and preparing consumables necessary for the trip, and provided considerable convenience.

The fee to be received for the nomination request was instantly blown away, but Rebecca didn’t care at all.

“Don’t worry! Doing anything for adventurers is the guild’s motto!”

By the way, Evan had never seen an adventurer other than himself get a glass of water from a guild employee. So I could see that Rebecca’s words were, of course, lies.

From anyone’s point of view, the guild’s actions to earn one’s favor. However, Evan didn’t bother scratching it to make a bruise, just nodded politely and climbed into the carriage.

“Adventurers Guild…… They take better care of you than you think.”

Seolhyang, who climbed into the carriage after her, burst into exclamations of exclamation as she saw the guild’s ability to execute, which had even arranged for the carriage overnight. With a look on his face, wondering if there was anything left to do to all the adventurers.

From that expression, Evan knew that she was misunderstanding something about her, but he didn’t have to tell an outsider what was inside her.

Than that.

“I have a question. …… Is the person you are looking for a man?”

“Why are you curious about that?”

“Just…… I’m curious.”

“I am a man.”

After hearing Seolhyang’s words, Evan let out a sigh. Man Rani, how easily her first love (not) of her own ended so easily… ….

“By the way, it’s not the kind of relationship Evan thinks.”

Over the head of the frustrated Evan, Seolhyang’s behind-the-scenes words flew. Upon hearing that, Evan immediately raised his head and restored his sanity.

As expected, you have to listen to what people say. If not, he still had a chance.

Evan thought so and scanned Seolhyang’s face as she turned her head toward the outside of his window.

‘…… Pretty.’

Pure white skin, black hair in contrast. She had her eyes closed, so I couldn’t tell what color her eyes were, but she was a beauty with a charm that gave off a mysterious feeling when her eyes were closed like that.

Someone must have braided it, and the half-tied hair was contributing to the atmosphere of a girl who grew up in a noble family.

Gulp-Evan, who swallowed, didn’t know why he had swallowed, so he quickly covered her snout. But she was one step too late.

“Whoa, it’s embarrassing if you look at me like that.”

“Bo, can you see?”

“I wish I had, but…… Unfortunately, that’s all I can hear.”

“I can hear you… ….”

“Yes. Instead of her blindness, she developed ears, senses of touch, and other things. Ah- you can do this too.”

Saying that, Seolhyang let go of her staff and stretched out her hands toward Evan’s face. Evan, watching what she was doing, stiffened at the touch of her hand on her own cheek.

Seolhyang, who grabbed her Evan’s face, didn’t stop there and began to stutter her Evan’s face. What does her forehead look like, what does her nose look like, what do her eyelids look like. Scanning her face with her hand, her seolhyang opened her mouth.

“You look like this, Evan.”

“Yes, yes yes…… Uh, what does it look like…… ?”

“A bit young, but also handsome. A face that will be popular with women.”

“Ah, that, then. Do you like my face, Seolhyang?”

“If you only ask me whether I like it or not, then of course I like it, right?”

Looking at Seolhyang tilting her head as if asking something obvious, Evan felt his heart pounding. My heart beats so much that it hurts.

‘I like it, I like it…… !’

But I didn’t mind the pain at all. Now that she’s actually confessed to liking her. I didn’t have the mind to worry about such trivial things.

Evan spoke with her seolhyang, enduring the pain of her chest being squeezed.

Seolhyang seemed to like him too, so he first chatted with him. Evan was able to find out a lot of things unexpectedly. She found out that she was from a fairly high family, and that she knew what her favorite food was.

“Ehehehe… ….”

But, who is the man she wants to go to Avirinth to meet?

I didn’t open my mouth that much.

***

A week has passed. Outside the window was a world I didn’t know. Among them, the most notable was the snowy mountain. A snowy mountain with only the top of the snow.

‘There are mountains that look like that.’

It looks as if the bread was held upside down and dipped in milk. The top part is snow-covered and pure white, but the lower part of the neck is just like that, shining blue.

As he looked around with his mouth wide open at the first snow mountain he had ever seen, Seolhyang, who was sitting across from him, cautiously opened his mouth.

“Are you almost there?”

“Yes. We are almost there.”

“What city is this?”

“The snowy mountains are pretty…… Well, other than that, it’s an ordinary city.”

As she explained to her about the city, she felt her carriage slow to a halt and she quickly looked out her window.

The carriage that arrived at Avirinth Castle slowly slowed down for inspection.

─Please enter.

The wagon, which simply finished the checkpoint, entered the city of Avirinth. I hoped that the man she was looking for would not be easily found.

‘I haven’t even talked about dating yet… ….’

Whether he knew my feelings or not, the coachman increased the speed of the wagon.

* * *

‘Here it is.’

Seolhyang felt her eyes heat up, and she was sure that the man she was looking for was in this city. The way she reacted to the wounds inflicted on him, she was certain.

The car stopped, and Seolhyang took Evan’s hand and got out of the car. The city was so lively that you couldn’t believe the man was there.

“I’ll find a place to stay first.”

“Yes, please.”

Evan casually guided her to her quarters. I could feel Evan’s hand shaking as he held hers. Seolhyang slightly regretted hiring Evan.

She was so insecure that when she faced the man, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be of any help.

‘Well, some people won’t be helpful against that man… ….’

After a while, Seolhyang arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the dorm and sat at the table for a while, waiting for Evan to come after making a deal with the owner of the dorm.

However, I wonder if that short time was too long for the hanryang who were sitting in the dorm during this time, and Seolhyang heard the footsteps of several of her men approaching her.

“Sister. It’s the first time I see your face An outsider?”

“What happened to a city with nothing to see like this?”

“…… Are you two residents here?”

“Sure. I’ve lived here my whole life.”

“Why? What are you looking for?”

“Yes. There is someone looking for you. ─Do you know a man named Cyrus?”

The moment Seolhyang mentions the name, sweat begins to flow from the bodies of the two men. My heart beats faster, and I feel my pupils dilate and then narrow. Significant nervous response. Seolhyang realized that the two of them knew the name.

“You, you- no. Who are you, who are you, what is your name…….”

“Oh, we excused ourselves! Boo, please life…….”

“That person, where is he now—.”

“—What are you doing you crazy bastards!”

And then, Evan came running after negotiating with the owner of the lodging. He stunned the two archers surrounding Seolhyang in an instant.

And then, like a puppy looking for praise, he smiled at Seolhyang.

At this situation, Seolhyang hardened her expression coldly.
