A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Episode 136 – Chasing the Trail of ‘Him’

The kingdom of Alberium, an elven country nestled in the middle of the great forest, was no different from the elves’ hometown.

Not all elves live in the Great Forest, and not all elves are citizens of the Kingdom of Alberium.

However, for the beings living as a unique race called elves, the Alberium Kingdom and the Great Forest area were like their hometown.

The vast majority of elves are born in the Great Forest, live in the Great Forest, and then return to the bosom of Mother Nature.

That was the life given to elves, and the way they lived.

So, Daesurim was not only their physical hometown, but also their spiritual hometown.

From noble mtl dot com.

Even the elves who were born outside of the Great Forest were going to meet their end in the Great Forest and the Kingdom of Alberium.

Elves born in the Great Forest live in the Great Forest and take it for granted that they die there.

So they tended to seldom venture out of the Great Forest.

There is no great inconvenience even living in the Great Forest, but he couldn’t find a reason to go out of the Great Forest.

However, not only elves live in this world, there are humans, animals, and countless other monsters.

Even elves were much stronger than ordinary people.

However, other races boasted an overwhelmingly greater number than elves.

And, a large number meant that many talents would appear, and among them were humans who had reached a level previously unattainable by elves.

There was only one way for elves to survive in a world like this.

That was an active exchange with external forces.

It was clear that the elves could survive only through active exchanges with the outside world.

However, for the closed elves, the outside world was a very strange and difficult place to adapt to.

Therefore, the World Tree, the mother of elves and the progenitor of all elves, chose an elf and gave him the surname Alberium.

In other words, since he was given the surname Alberium, he was the representative of the kingdom of Alberium and the representative of the World Tree chosen by the World Tree.

And the World Tree gave an order to the elf to whom he had given the last name of Alberium.

‘Elf alone cannot survive in this world. Select talented people with the abilities given to you. And, accept the good things of the outside world through them and save the elves from the outside threat.’

Because the World Tree loved the elves, it knew that their closed tendencies would eventually lead to regression rather than development.

If time went on like this, there was a high possibility that the elves would not be able to respond properly when an external threat appeared.

If that happens, the kingdom of Alberium, the home of the elves, will be ruined, the Great Forest will burn down, and the power of the World Tree will weaken.

So, for the elves, those who were given the mission to communicate with the outside world had to realize the importance of that mission.

However, as time passed, the elves who were given the qualifications and missions to interact with the outside world gradually forgot why their mission was so important.

The rate of acting for the safety and future of one’s own tribe was decreasing, and they were busy satisfying their own curiosity and desires.

In the meantime, the incident happened.

Seluna Emeraldia, the Queen’s bodyguard and the vice-captain of the bodyguard.

Due to her arbitrary judgment, the eldest son of the Maydern family, a renowned swordsman of the Breggern Empire, was brought to the brink of her death.

In addition, an evil spirit descended on his dying body and stole his body and ran away.

Of course, there were Imperial Knights of the Bregern Empire at that place, and the Spirituals of the Alberium Kingdom were also there.

In the end, due to Seluna’s arbitrary judgment, Alberto Salihar Maydern went missing.

This meant that the amazing talent who would later be responsible for the national power of the Bregern Empire had vanished.

The Bregern Empire, which did not want the situation to escalate, covered up this incident, but for some reason, the World Tree, which had been silent for some reason, appeared.

The World Tree appeared before her Queen Rumio and said to her.

“Seluna Emeraldia. Because of that child’s foolish judgment, the person who might become our elf’s benefactor was almost put in danger. Seluna Emeraldia, I can’t forgive that child any more. Banish that child.”

Rumio immediately responded to the World Tree’s command with action.

“Seluna Emeral Dia. The Emeral Diara given to you will reclaim her castle, remove you from the position of lieutenant general of her bodyguard, and permanently banish you from the Kingdom of Alberium and the Great Forest. All of this, It will take effect immediately.”

Seluna disappeared in the Great Forest as soon as Queen Rumio finished her words.

No, to be precise, her world tree had driven her out of her great grove by her own power.

The World Tree appeared in front of Seluna, who was thrown outside the Great Forest.

“You foolish child. With your narrow eyes and misguided thinking, all elves have been put in danger.”

“Mighty world tree! Just once! Give me one chance!”

The World Tree looked at Seluna with her majesty and said. Seluna held onto the legs of the World Tree in the shape of a green-haired woman and screamed as if she was screaming and asked for a chance.

Seeing her with her contemptuous gaze, the World Tree closed her eyes and let out a sigh.

“You foolish and pitiful thing. I want to forgive you too, but the price you committed is too great for that.”

The World Tree looked at Seluna with a pitying gaze and said.

“Mother, is there really no other way?”

Seluna was clinging to the feet of the World Tree, like a drowning person grabbing at a straw.

“The crime you committed was to threaten the safety of your own people. I don’t know what will happen if the person who suffered damage because of you holds a grudge against the elves.”

“Ah…ah!”

It was only then that Seluna realized what she had done.

Alberto Salihar Maydern.

A genius who became a sword master at the age of fifteen.

An evil spirit had stolen his body.

The descending power of a divine being varies depending on how strong the owner of the body used for the descending is.

In other words, he was saying that he had given the most suitable person to the evil god as a vessel for the divine existence.

And what if the evil spirit that occupied his body attacked the kingdom of Alberium?

When she remembered it, Seluna could vividly imagine what was going on in her head.

Elven warriors that fall like autumn leaves.

Giant trees over hundreds of years old that are cut down by the sword wielded by the descending evil spirit.

Burning Great Forest and Alberium Kingdom.

And even the appearance of the world tree split in half and burning.

Seluna was frustrated.

What the hell have I done?

Why did I judge someone who did nothing wrong with that thought?

Why did I do that?

When she remembered the wrong she had done to Alberto, Seluna felt the pain stabbing her in the chest like a nail.

“Mother, is there any way I can atone for him?”

“Why do you want to atone for him?”

To Seluna, who trembled with her fear and asked how to atone for her, the World Tree asked why you were trying to atone for him.

And Seluna had nothing to say to the question of the World Tree.

“Is it for your own comfort, or is it because you’re genuinely sorry for him?”

“That, that’s…”

Seluna couldn’t answer exactly what she was.

Why is she trying to atone for him?

For my own safety?

Or, are you trying to restore her social status that she has built up over the years?

Or else, to return to my hometown of Alberium Kingdom and Great Forest?

When she thought about so many things, she was able to see what she was missing.

Ah, that’s right.

I didn’t really feel sorry for him and tried to atone for it.

When she realized that, Seluna was so ashamed that she wanted to hide somewhere.

However, in front of the World Shroud, there was hardly any space for her to hide herself.

Seluna realized who she should ask for forgiveness.

However, there was a problem.

“Mother. Where is he? Where is the man who was framed and writhing in pain because of me?”

That’s right, I didn’t know where Alberto was.

If she found out his location, she was going to run right away and apologize to him, begging her forgiveness until he forgave herself.

If he wanted his body, he could give him his long-held virginity.

If she wanted to live as a maid, she could live as a maid for him.

It would have been nice to simply be a person who satisfies one’s desires as a pastime.

If only I could ask for his forgiveness.

In response to her question, the World Tree sighed and pointed somewhere with his finger.

In the direction she pointed, there was a road leading to the El Pario Empire.

“Go, seek, seek. You will not return until then.”

At the words of the World Tree, Seluna raised her body and slowly put her body on the road leading to the El Pario Empire.

She started walking aimlessly.

To apologize to Alberto and ask for his forgiveness.
