Disciples Who Have Become Too Strong Are Chasing Me

39 – The next head of household

After the sparring between Kalheron and Finn, the party was able to reach the Dekaron family’s territory without any major problems.

“If you go a little further, you will find the lord’s castle.”

As Carl Heron said, the lord’s castle was so close that he could see it right in front of him.

Not long after that, the carriage arrived in front of the lord’s castle.

“Meet the boy and the young lady.”

It was a knight guarding the castle gate.

Looking a bit older, he greeted Xenia and Zeke with a courtesy.

“It’s been a while. Sir Dipole. How have you been?”

“I’m always doing well here where the duke is. The Duke is waiting for you, so please go in quickly.”

Thanks to the knight who recognized Zeke and Xenia, we were able to enter the lord’s castle without any special checks.

Students who first visited a noble’s castle were busy looking around.

Flowers and trees carefully tended by gardeners, gymnasiums whose size is difficult to measure, and knights training diligently in such gymnasiums.

All of these scenes were enough to take away the eyes of the students.

“Then, my sister and I will go see father. Everyone, please go to your inn and rest.”

“See you later.”

Now that I have returned to the family, it was only natural to say hello to the head of the family.

So Zeke and Xenia left.

Remaining students and pins. And I arrived at the accommodation with the guidance of the servants.

While taking a warm bath to relieve the fatigue of the trip, I said something I hadn’t been able to say until I entered the lord’s castle.

“Pin.”

“Why?”

In the first place, Finn wasn’t part of the group.

So, the duke’s house couldn’t prepare a room.

Fin, who didn’t get a room, was sharing the same room as me.

It wasn’t that Finn was unhappy about sharing a room with me.

There was something more incomprehensible.

Why does Finn still know us, and he’s following me?

I wanted to know that.

“How long will you follow me?”

“Are you following me? What do you mean I’m following my master?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have any evidence?”

“The fact that you are here now is proof that you are following me.”

“What is that…….”

Interrupting Finn’s rebuttal, I continued.

“If I had only come to take pictures, I would have liked to have parted ways here. Why are you still here?”

Before I came this far.

A photo was copied in a village.

And I gave it to Finn.

Fin got what he wanted and all he had to do was return to the North.

But the pin was still with me.

I didn’t doubt it at first because there was a Decaron territory on the way to the north.

But after seeing the pin that followed the lord’s castle, I was convinced.

It’s clear that there’s some ulterior motive.

“No, I was just going the same way?”

“Then you can go your own way, so why are you here?”

“Do you want to break up with a student you haven’t seen in a while?”

“If possible.”

It’s not that I hate pins.

It’s just scary that the girls behind the pins are trying to grab me.

Lucia wasn’t the only one behind Finn anymore.

The mad b*tch of the north.

The madman who imprisoned me was now behind Finn.

So I had no choice but to be reluctant to have Finn follow me.

“You are not doing too much!”

“Pin. There is a way to make Graina come here right away. Quickly tell me what your purpose is.”

Grania’s shadow swayed beneath Finn’s feet.

Attacking that will send a signal to Grania.

Of course, I will never attack.

If Grania arrives, she will expose my location to Lucia.

It was just a threat.

If you thought about it a little, you would have thought that I would never sing Grania, but Finn didn’t have the brain to think of that.

“No, I’ll tell you! Say! So don’t call him! It was nice that she went alone after a long time…… I’ll tell you everything! Never call!”

After that.

The story that came out of Finn’s mouth was shocking.

“So, are you saying that the Grand Duke is one of those invited to this party?”

“Yes, the lady said that she was invited this time.

The b*tch who imprisoned me is coming.

Will it bounce?

●●●

A place called the heart of the duchy.

The Duke’s office.

There, two men and women were looking at a man with their backs straight.

A sharp-looking man with black hair, dark eyes, and a large build.

Duke of Jade Decaron.

He looks at his children and opens his mouth.

“Zeek. Is it true that you beat Xenia?”

“It is true.”

“It is true.”

The duke’s words affirmed at the same time.

Meaning it’s not a lie.

“Amazing.”

His face, which usually does not change his expression, moved slightly.

instant noodle scks tho

That means I was surprised.

He could be proud of knowing the difference between Zeke and Xenia better than anyone else.

That’s why he couldn’t help but be more surprised.

“What happened to Barisada?”

Xenia replies to his words.

“It was said that it was completely destroyed and could not be restored.”

“I see.”

It’s Barisada.

The symbol of the next family head and the heirloom of the Dekaron family.

From noble mtl dot com

It was no wonder that Jade got angry because she destroyed something like that beyond recovery.

Said Zeke, lowering his head.

“My fault. If you want to punish me, I will accept it sweetly.

“Bee? Did you say punishment now?”

“Yes, that is correct. It’s my fault, so I’ll be punished. And this…….”

Zeke untied the scabbard he was wearing around his waist and set it down on the headmaster’s desk.

“What is this?”

“I’ve been looking for a sword to replace Barisada, though it’s not enough. I’m not trying to avoid punishment with this. It’s just my little sincerity.”

Sureureung.

Jade pulled out the gram that Zeke had put down on the spot.

His eyes scanned the sword from side to side.

Jade, having seen enough, put the sword back into the scabbard.

“That’s good, maybe it’s a sword that’s more than a barisada. But it’s a sword I don’t need. Take it.”

Jade threw Gram at Zeke.

Zeke accepted Gram with a surprised face.

Looking at Zeke, who hurriedly received the gram, Jade said.

“Do you know what Barisada means?”

“It is the symbol of the next family head.”

“Yes. As the head of the household, I don’t need the symbol of the next head of household. You should have it.”

“Yes? Then the punishment.”

“It is my punishment for you to do so so that the meaning of the sword will not fade and the world will know what it means. Know that.”

With Jade’s remarks, Gram became the symbol of the next family head.

Jade gave it to Zeke.

The position of the next head of household was moved from Xenia to Zeke under the declaration of the head of the family.

“Can you do it well?”

“Boo, I will try not to show my shy side!”

“Yes, that is the attitude.”

A faint smile forms on the Duke’s mouth.

Zeke stands proudly in front of such a duke.

Xenia, who was watching her from the side, smiled softly.

●●●

She is screwed.

Yes, I really screwed up.

I thought about running away hundreds of times.

What will I lose if I run away now?

The academy’s teaching job, the wrath of Atalanta, the students’ disappointment, and more.

There was so much to lose.

But no matter how much I thought about it, nothing came to my mind except running away.

I finally gave up on thinking.

“Yeah, it’s been so long since we haven’t met, can you still remember?”

More than 10 years have passed since I first met her.

I must have forgotten.

I’m the victim, so I’ll remember it until now. I’m sure she, the perpetrator, has forgotten.

Originally, perpetrators don’t remember what they did.

“After…… I’ll have to chill out a little while looking at the garden.”

The Tekaron family is more than just a name for swordsmanship. He had a garden that would have been better named Garden House.

The garden was so grand and beautiful.

I found peace of mind by walking around the garden.

“Hey, are you a guest?”

In the meantime, a girl who seemed to be a gardener started talking to me.

“Ah, nice to meet you. My name is Derian, who was invited to the party this time.”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Labia, who takes care of the Duke’s garden!”

Meeting her wasn’t bad. She kindly dragged me from place to place and showed me around the garden.

“Oh right. I have a perfume I made myself, would you like to try it?”

“Let’s take a look.”

She sprayed perfume on my wrist.

The familiar scent of flowers began to spread from my wrist.

“It smells like lavender. It’s my favorite scent. It must have been hard to make. Thank you.”

“What? It makes me feel good when you say it’s good.”

After that, I had several conversations with Labia.

“Come to think of it, do the plants here look a bit unusual?”

“Ah, these are all children I raised myself. I tried to improve it a little bit, but some of them seem to have failed.”

“I see.”

To try to improve it yourself was a great gardener.

She enjoyed talking to her, but she couldn’t stay here all the time.

The sun was going down.

I had dinner plans with the students, so I had to part with them.

“I have to go now. Thanks to Ms. Labia, I was able to smell the good scent and enjoy the view of the garden.”

“What? That’s my job See you next time!”

“Enough then.”

That’s how I broke up with Labia.
