Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 638

#638. I wish you well.

* * *

It’s been a long time.

How eight kinds of things start, continue, and change.

It took as much time as reading a few books just to lay out each of the phrases in words.

But it was a short time.

Just by reciting the phrase once in a while, the transmission is over.

Even so, no princess asked Maia to tell her the rules again.

They are the princesses of the Seven Dragons.

It was because he was a descendant of the dragon who was born with the instinct to deal with psionics in addition to the intelligence that could memorize all the rules just by hearing it once.

like that.

The Seven Dragons Association is over.

“You learned well, Maia.”

The first thing I went to was Yekatrice.

As the best genius of the Seven Dragons, she was the first to finish memorizing the rules and turned off the video with a smile.

But there was still no smile in his eyes.

“…I will make sure to repay this debt.”

Rose disappeared next.

As the conscience of the Seven Dragons, she promised to repay her for teaching the seasons and disappeared.

Instead, it doesn’t say what the reward means.

“I watch. You learn it quickly and it helps Lee.”

Another farewell was Ainsha.

With an expressionless face as always, the girl left the seat with a promise.

Looks like we’ll see you later.

“…”

and Hasneti.

The video of her without even leaving a greeting disappeared after silently smoking a cigarette.

Like ignoring Maia.

The four princesses who even passed on the family’s vision of the Great Law of Yin-Yang Joy, but all of them disappeared leaving only cold eyes behind.

If she was ungrateful, despite her ungrateful appearance, Maia was neither disappointed nor angry.

already said it yourself

The other princesses end up with tools.

It’s just a safety device to prevent Limon’s coin poisoning.

He didn’t think he was gracious, and it was understandable that he harbored envy and jealousy toward himself.

Because she would have been too.

“Li Qingyu.”

So it was.

Four princesses leave.

Why did Maia quietly ask the last remaining girl?

“Do you have anything to say to me?”

“What are you talking about?”

“There is nothing to be ashamed of.”

carefree attitude.

calm voice.

Looking at Li Qingyu, who seemed to be asking a question unexpectedly, unlike the reaction as if he expected his question.

Maia held on to her cynicism.

“You are resentful of me for stealing the bride position after being asked to treat you by a swordsman.”

“Resentment… Do you see it that way?”

“Is it wrong?”

“well.”

I just smiled a little bitterly.

A girl who neither affirms nor denies.

That’s why Maia didn’t let go of her sharp gaze even when she saw Li Ching-yu, who couldn’t even find a hint of resentment.

because I remembered

If you can’t heal Limon.

that I would definitely kill myself.

The way she spoke coldly.

So Maia could be sure.

Rather than other princesses who openly showed hostility, this girl who is hiding her true feelings is the most threatening enemy she must be wary of.

Could it be because he read that caution?

Li Qingyu, who had been staring at her blankly, finally spoke calmly after a while.

“I want to ask you a few questions before I answer them.”

“What do you mean?”

“Are you sure you’re all right, Swordsman?”

“On the contrary, I’m healthier than before, to the point where it’s difficult.”

He said that even after being together for days and nights, it was not enough, and he was so full of energy that he even fainted from exhaustion.

Even after hearing her blatantly provocative words.

Li Qingyu was not shaken.

I just asked again and again.

“Are you eating well?”

“I personally take care of three meals and snacks

.”

“At least it never happened while I was sleeping next to you, and if I did, I would have tried my hand first.”

“…okay.”

too insignificant

trivial.

That’s why I heard Maia’s cold answer to the question that made me even more nervous.

Li Qingyu calmly agreed.

And after looking at Maia with dark eyes as deep as the night, he opened his mouth again.

“Mya.”

“What else?”

“thank you.”

“…”

To Maia, who hesitated at the unexpected words.

Li Qingyu continued.

“If there is anything you need help with, just let me know. In the name of the founder, Black Dragon God, I will definitely help you once.”

“…why?”

“This is the only reward I can give you.”

Isn’t it only the green dragon clan that knows Eun-won?

Heal Limon.

In addition, he said that he would repay the grace of suppressing the dragon’s desire for monopoly and teaching everyone the Great Law of Yin-Yang Joy.

After speaking calmly.

Li Qingyu stood up.

And quietly, unnoticed.

However, he bowed his head to her with the utmost respect and ended his speech.

“Please take good care of swordsman in the future.”

Phaging.

like that.

Li Qingyu’s video was turned off.

Thanks to that, Maia, now left alone in the conference hall, frowned.

“…I don’t know what the plan is.”

Is it because Li Qingyu, who expressed gratitude, is more intrusive than other princesses who openly showed envy?

Or is it because of that attitude?

Unlike other princesses, a girl who led the world peace project and formally married Limon.

Although the race begins.

Even if the engagement was ambiguous.

When I only looked at my qualifications as a bride.

At the end of staring at the vacancy of the only competitor who can threaten him at this point.

Rising with a sneer, she took off her glasses and left the conference room.

“God Barbara…”

“God Arbella…”

“Greetings are over, please guide me to where the swordsmith is.”

As soon as they left the conference room, two sisters greeted them.

Maia, who cut off Barbara and Arbella’s greetings with a gesture, immediately gave instructions.

The last few days and nights of being held captive by Limon had been a mountain of delays, but that was no reason to hold back from wanting to see him.

But after a while.

Maia raised her eyes.

It was because the two sisters who were supposed to guide her right away were hesitating with a very embarrassed expression.

“Why don’t you guide me?”

“…Princess Swordsman is not here.”

“He went out with his pet because he had business for a while.”

“Outside? Where are you talking to?”

“That’s…”

Maybe because he felt something.

In response to her question, which raised her sharp eyes even more, the two aides spoke cautiously.

Before leaving with the blue bird.

The destination that Limon told me.

* * *

After turning off the video conferencing device.

A closed room covered with silent darkness.

Where no one can see and can’t see.

Li Qingyu, alone in silence, recalled the image of Maia he had seen at the Seven Dragons Conference today.

The declaration of being Limon’s bride.

Guild of experience with him.

More than anything, the moment I thought of that emerald ring.

Throbbing.

Pain that cuts through the heart.

It was as painful as being stabbed by a knife made of salt water, but the heavy pain felt like being crushed by a massive stone.

She tightened her grip.

Also thanks to Maia.

That I would repay the favor.

never lies

But that didn’t hurt that Limon had taken Maia as his bride.

Rather, as it had happened several times, I felt a deeper bitterness than any other princess present.

‘This must be right.’

Still swallowing the pain.

Li Qingyu closed his eyes.

Maia, who conquered the world by making nectar, is definitely qualified to become Limon’s bride.

No, it’s not just Maia.

Whether you used a shortcut.

whether the result of contention or not.

Every princess recognized by Limon deserved to be his bride, to be loved with all of her body, and to be loved with all of her heart.

…at least than Li Qingyu herself.

That is why she persuaded Limon to ask him to accept other princesses as his brides.

Either for Limon.

either for everyone else.

that this is the best

Even if everyone in the world didn’t know, only she knew.

‘If I wasn’t envious, it would be a lie.’

Even so, she couldn’t give up her position as Limon’s bride.

While lamenting and saddened by his own vulgarity in not being genuinely happy that he had taken another princess as his bride.

Li Qingyu muttered inwardly.

‘Is it two in the future?’

As long as Maia has officially declared that she has become Limon’s bride.

The competition will intensify.

Perhaps neglecting even the World Federation, there was a possibility of trying to drop another princess or using even more drastic measures.

Especially since the remaining two are the two most demanding princesses in the Seven Dragons.

‘It’ll be fine though.’

However, Li Qingyu was not anxious.

I just smiled quietly.

‘Because he’s a swordsman.’

Swordsmith Limon Aspelder.

The absolute among true absolutes.

Heiming is the only one who can save this world.

Reminds me of a hero who couldn’t help but admire and love himself that no one believed in.

Swallowing the pain in his chest, Li Qingyu left the conference room.

In order to deal with the work that must have piled up like a mountain during the Chilryong Branch meeting.

But right after that.

She had no choice but to completely forget what she had to deal with and even the pain that pierced her chest.

“It took quite a while.”

“…”

“Why do you look like you’ve seen an incarnation shouting that God is dead?”

feet on the table.

Arms across the back of the sofa.

Even a glass of whiskey in one hand.

After watching the gray-haired man sitting on the sofa and sipping whiskey so casually, I was frozen.

Li Qingyu opened his mouth.

“Why… are you here?”

“huh? Wasn’t it supposed to be?”

“yes. no no Of course, swordsmiths are always welcome, but…”

Maybe it was too unexpected.

Seeing Li Ching-yu, who was rarely flustered and stuttered, Limon smiled.

“Don’t worry about your body. I even got confirmation from the doctor that I’m fine now.”

“That’s…”

I’ve already heard from Maia.

The words that came out of my throat.

Li Qingyu managed to swallow it.

The Seven Dragons Association was held without Limon’s knowledge.

It was a tacit promise between the girls that they would not tell him what they had been talking about today.

That’s why she hesitated.

Limon said calmly.

“Besides, you have to make sure I’m safe like this so you can stop bothering the other kids.”

“…Are you saying that you came to see me right away for that?”

“I have other things to do, though.”

Only then did Li Qingyu, realizing why Li Mon came, put on a more complex expression.

Limon emptied the whiskey glass he was holding.

And put down the empty glass.

Looking at Li Qingyu, he smiled.

“It’s a princess.”

“…”

“It was a lot of hard work.”

He said that he had endured the persecution of the other princesses alone in order to hide his state of infidelity.

short.

Calmly.

But that’s why it’s more honest.

At the end of his eyelashes trembling with an indescribable face after hearing his words that acknowledged his hard work.

Li Qingyu took a deep breath.

and refreshing

with a smile

Originally, he brought out what he should have said.

“…Welcome, swordsman.”

As always, he reached out to the bride who greeted her with a smile.

overlapping lips.

Limon likewise said what he had to say.

Pain for Li Qingyu.

Forget the cramps and bitterness.

Instead, a two-word spell that will make you feel warm and happy.

“Yes, I went.”
