057. This is Rofan (4)

She had planned to tell Iriel about Zeke’s amnesia from the beginning.

The reason Serena said this first was simple.

‘In a situation where the instructor might die at any moment, I want to avoid regretting later after hiding the cards for no reason.’

Iriel wants to protect Zeke.

Knowing that feeling, Serena hoped that Iriel would actively help Zeke.

‘Even if Justia doubts it, it will be much easier to secure safety if she acts as a buffer in the middle.’

In order to do so, the sharing of information was inevitable anyway.

I wasn’t particularly good with her, rather it was more like a relationship aiming for each other’s back.

It was unknown how far she could provide unconditional support in the name of ‘for Zeke’.

However, because of the destructive past of being a childhood friend,

A base of jealousy welled up, and he only suspended judgment for a moment.

There was also a reason for being relieved when Zeke returned safely.

‘But it’s me, not you!’

Serena lifted her chin with a confident face.

“Whoops.”

However, what Serena hadn’t thought of was Iriel’s position to accept this fact.

Iriel’s eyes trembled.

She doubted her ears to see if she was hearing correctly.

‘what is this sound!!! Zeke has no memory!!’

Then, it wasn’t that Zeke was trying to keep a distance for himself and pretended not to know.

Wasn’t it for yourself to be close to Serena?

Besides, isn’t it saying that everything he sacrificed for himself is a lie?

I couldn’t believe it.

No, I didn’t want to believe it.

but,

Really.

If that’s true.

Why did Zeke treat him like he was seeing him for the first time?

How did you say such a harsh thing that you’ve never said before?

Why did he, who was so cautious about even putting a finger on himself, hit himself?

Also, all the strange habits that have changed from the past… … .

explained.

Iriel met Zeke’s eyes.

His eyes trembled as if he was confused.

Is there love for yourself in it?

Is there a warmth that you always feel when you are with him?

Does it contain his upright conviction that he said he would protect me?

Iriel tried to pretend to be calm and opened his mouth.

“… … Zeke, that’s true… … ? is that a lie? Please tell me lies.”

back. Zeke closed his eyes and nodded.

“Serena is right.”

cooong.

A large stone fell into Iriel’s chest, causing a great ripple.

“No, I don’t remember anything… … ? Uh, since when… … ? Since when did you not remember!?”

“… … It was the day I was assigned to Ramieli Academy. It was the day I got out of the army.”

That grave expression and blunt way of speaking were definitely Zeke’s.

It feels like you’re going to kneel in front of me, calling me lady.

Iriel couldn’t tolerate him who felt so strange.

“Uh, how… … . That’s when you first saw me. I couldn’t even remember my name… … ? my face too… … ?”

“Yeah, I don’t remember at all.”

“No… … uh.”

Iriel slowly shook his head from side to side.

“Sir, I don’t like… … .”

Her fingertips trembled.

“no!”

don’t remember anything

so stupidly

fleetingly.

Our precious memories are gone.

How can you say something like that so easily?

“Then why, no why… … .”

Iriel blurted out his words in a shocked voice.

He didn’t even know what he was going to ask.

Just then, Serena’s face came into view.

Iriel pointed at her with his finger.

“Then what is that woman! That you saved me!!”

“I ran into him on the way to my appointment as an academy instructor. They’re being attacked by goblins. That’s when I came to the rescue.”

“nine… … , saved you? him… … ?”

Serena nodded.

“That’s right, that’s why I kept the instructor here as a benefactor.”

“I forgot the words I told you to come to my mansion… … ?”

“I don’t remember.”

Iriel felt his breath quicken from the great shock.

Then he quickly raised his head and spoke to Zeke urgently.

“Dagger skill! You taught me the dagger! You should be able to protect at least one of your own bodies.”

“I don’t remember.”

“Well then, baguette bread! What is that bread you are carrying!”

“… … Did I like baguette bread… … ?”

She inquired about the past one by one, starting with the big ones and ending with the small ones.

However, Zeke was only in trouble.

‘Ah, Mr. It’s not that I don’t remember. It’s not me at all, how do you know… … .’

Despair grew thicker in Iriel’s eyes.

“really… … . Forget everything… … .”

Iriel clapped his hands.

“Well, then you will remember this. Zeke. I can’t help but remember!!”

“Iriel.”

Zeke tried to stop her. It would be pointless to continue this question and answer any further.

Also, Serena was impatient.

However, Iriel did not give up.

“Seriously, I’m done with just one last question. Zeke. If you really can’t even remember this… … .”

Iriel bit his lip.

ha-.

It is a path that should have been passed at least once in the future.

As long as I have to be involved with her in the future, I can’t pretend to know her every time.

Zeke felt mental fatigue and nodded.

“Yeah, if that makes you feel better.”

Iriel cautiously opened his mouth in a creeping voice.

“You promised me… … . I don’t remember that either… … ?”

“… … .”

As Zeke frowned, she hurriedly added her words.

“At that time, I was a freshman at the secondary academy, and that day was the day before you left.”

With the mindset of grabbing at least a straw, Iriel

I brought out precious memories that I hadn’t told anyone before.

* * *

“No Zeke! Don’t take me!!!”

That day, Iriel kicked in the door of the room and wrote an aura.

Don’t take Zeke away from me.

However, none of Justia’s adults listened to her words.

My father was furious that he had given his heart to such a base thing.

Her aunt also admonished her, saying that her behavior was unbecoming of a noble lady.

“Iriel Justia. What a disappointment. How can you show such ugliness just because of a guy like that? I won’t be able to come out of my room for two weeks from today. Hella at the academy, let me tell you.”

Her father ordered her to a mansion pension.

There was a large lock on Iriel’s room.

That night.

Iriel sneaked into the next room through the window at dawn and came out into the hallway.

And the basement of Justia Mansion, which I visited again.

However, there was no boy in Zeke’s room, and only a dreary and bleak room remained.

“Zeke! Where is Zeke!”

Iriel went around the mansion where everyone was asleep and looked for him.

However, the dark-haired boy could not be found anywhere.

She recklessly left the mansion and started looking for Zeke.

“Zeke!!!!”

Without knowing how far or how long she had walked.

continued to step.

Iriel became hoarse from calling Zeke anxiously.

The tender skin was blistered and the soles of my feet were sore every time I walked.

At that time, a group of men murmured from behind.

“Hey, what is that kid?”

“Ohh, the clothes look expensive?”

“Hey, don’t you think it’ll make some money if you take that and sell it?”

“Clothes are also clothes, but if you grow a little to have a smooth face… … .”

They grumbled and slowly followed her.

At first, she thought she was just a stranger

As the men came closer, I could hear them talking.

‘Abduct me!?’

It was a situation she had never thought of as a princess of Justia.

Her steps quickened little by little.

Correspondingly, the sound of the men’s footsteps also became faster.

ride on it!!

Iriel, who thought he would be caught at this rate, started running.

However, there is a clear difference between the speed of an adult male and that of a young girl.

The distance was getting closer and closer.

Eventually, when their hands were about to grab Iriel’s hair.

“They’re rushing around to grab a little girl. They’re trash.”

Suddenly, a man appeared and came between Iriel and the man with a sword.

Iriel widened his eyes.

‘Who is it?’

Anyway, now is the time to run away again.

Iriel ran away without looking back.

My breath fills up to the tip of my chin

Until your feet can no longer move.

ha.

“Zeke… … . Where are you? How could you go without saying hello to me?”

Tears welled up in her eyes.

“I am so scared… … . Zeke.”

Iriel didn’t even know where he was anymore.

Even if you try to go back to the mansion, there are only forests and trees in dark shadows around you.

Then, a voice came from behind again.

“Hee-eok, hee-eok, fuck, hey, are you okay?”

“Keugh. I was hit with a knife. fuck. A very strange man came out of there.”

“Wielding a sword was no joke. You did a good job frying.”

“I almost got really fucked up. ha, what? Is that!?”

“Didn’t you miss it earlier? Because of that, we became Lee Ji-kyung. Let’s catch that one.”

“Where is it for real!!?”

They pointed at Iriel.

Looking back, Iriel’s eyes vibrated violently.

My body trembled with fear.

She tightly closed her eyes.

In an instant, a face pops up in my head.

It wasn’t always a strong, strict father

It wasn’t even the aunt who seemed to have no gap with a sharp expression.

It wasn’t even a trustworthy and reliable article.

black hair and black eyes.

A boy with no expression but a warm heart.

She opened her mouth and shouted.

“Zeke!!! Help me!!!”

Percussion!

At that moment, a person came between them and hugged Iriel tightly.

“uh… … uh.”

Huh Eok-

Huh Eok-

Huh Eok-

A warm and comfortable embrace.

Zeke Kleiman.

he came to me

He looked at my face with worried eyes.

“My lady, are you hurt anywhere? Where are you uncomfortable? Are you okay?”

“Zeke… … .”

Tears welled up in her eyes.

When Iriel didn’t seem to have been harmed, Zeke put on a relieved expression and patted her head.

“If you come this far, it will be difficult for me to find you.”

Zeke put his cloak on Iriel.

“Wait a minute.”

The boy’s dark eyes were cold like the cold wind of the north wind.
