Became the Escort Knight of the Villain in the Romance Novel - Chapter 117



117 – Smoothly (7)

“Evan Fried, I trusted you.”

Would it be easier if I died? Evan couldn’t bear to lift his head at the place where he seemed to be stabbed all over his body.

Without Irene, only the duke and the two of them were drinking alcohol.

The Duke found out that Irene was pregnant, and Evan just… Shuddered like a rabbit in front of a beast.

What if a bottle of alcohol flies at your head?

If I avoided this, it was obvious that I would be caught by the collar.

A cold sweat dripped down Evan’s cheek as he closed his eyes with that thought.

“… I have no face. I’m somehow responsible for-“

“Shut that filthy mouth. Before my last patience crumbles.”

Garot snorted harshly and glared at Evan.

Pregnancy, I could understand. They loved each other, and someday they will mix their bodies, so why not see their grandchildren someday?

By the way, do you mean getting pregnant before marriage?

The glass in Kwa Deuk-Garot’s hand could not overcome her strength and shattered.

Evan swallowed her drool as he saw the glass being powdered and scattered on the floor along with the liquor.

Wouldn’t it be like that if I made a mistake?

Garrot looked at Evan, who was shaking her shoulder, and put her broken glass aside, widening her eyes.

How should I dispose of that garbage? I wanted to lock her up in the basement and whip her, but I was concerned about my daughter’s notice to do so.

Isn’t it obvious what you’ll say to yourself if you treat him too harshly? Garot was no fool.

I was already well aware that my daughter’s priorities were with Evan, She

She also knew she could be hurt if she touched her wrongly.

By the way, but…

How the hell can I put up with this? It was a premarital pregnancy. Even a child who has just become an adult!

“Go, Your Excellency the Duke.”

“I trusted you! My daughter believes in you! Is this the answer…!”

Garrot, who lost her temper for a moment, grabbed Evan by the collar and shook it. She

Didn’t she say that you can call her a craftsman? She let go so far… How can she repay you like this?

Even if she was ungrateful, she was not enough. This was just a bad guy.

To a bastard, to rubbish, to have an eye on other women!

Garrot, who had been shaking her Evan like wet laundry, threw her Evan on the floor and took her by the arm.

Can’t we hit just one hit?

Is it right for me to keep this alive? I was told I was 8 weeks pregnant.

I heard that she officially dated three months ago, but she made Irene conceive within a month of dating.

Garot laughed at the absurd fact even though she went through it herself.

She swung the empty bottle around and threw it wildly towards Evan’s seat.

Clang!

Evan dodged her shrapnel and knelt down on her knees.

There was a small chance that she would forgive her if she begged here, but now was the time to do something.

Shall I bow her head? Just like that, Evan beat her forehead to her floor,

A shard of glass on her floor scratched her forehead, causing her blood to flow.

“Sorry, father-in-law.”

It was a mistake to call him a father-in-law, but upon hearing that, the duke felt the back of his neck loosen up.

Something hot exploded in the back of the head, and Garot, who was staggering and sat down on the chair, groaned.

Irene liked it so I left it and I thought it would come back like this.

If I could turn back time, I’d kick out the escort knight or something…!

However, Irene is already in her 8th week of pregnancy.

Now, if I kick Evan out, my daughter will follow Evan out of the duke’s residence.

Unable to do anything on my own, I untied her necktie roughly and brought a whiskey from an intact bottle to her mouth.

Gulp- Gulp-

The drink that touched his throat was hot, but not as much as the flame that burned in his chest.

Rather, the alcohol cooled my heart and made me look around a little more calmly,

Seeing the blood flowing from Evan’s forehead, Garot gritted his teeth and let go of her anger.

The irreversible was the reality. Garrot, who looked at Evan for a moment, then pointed her finger at the seat in front of her and opened her mouth.

“For now…Sit down.”

Evan sat down without even wiping the blood from her forehead.

To be honest, when I heard that Irene was pregnant, I didn’t think much of it.

When she thought about it, she seemed to be able to understand the Duke’s anger at least a little.

What would I do if my daughter had a relationship with a man and suddenly came back pregnant?

As Evan sat down, Garrot took out one of her empty glasses and placed it in front of her Evan.

She then placed her one in front of herself as well, pushing her bottle and pointing at it with her chin.

“Pour me a drink.”

Garotte, who was staring blankly at the yellow liquor poured into the glass,

Then she ran her hands over her face and let out a heavy sigh.

I’d rather it all be a dream. Unfortunately, reality proves that all of this is true.

Now, when her daughter was 8 months old, she would give birth to a child, and she would be her grandfather.

“Wipe off the blood. What would Irene say if she saw that?”

“……”

After wiping off the blood, Evan quietly put his handkerchief into his chest.

As a master, the wounds had already completely disappeared.

Perhaps even if Garot raises his fist and beats her up, not a single wound will remain on her.

Knowing this, Garrot’s fists trembled, but Garrot tried to contain his anger somehow.

She’s reason rather than emotion, if only she hadn’t ruined her Irene childhood herself.

Garot held back the urge to hit Evan on the head with a bottle of wine with superhuman endurance.

“Sorry-“

“Don’t say you’re sorry. Don’t you know that it won’t end with just a few words of apology?”

Whoa.

Garot let out a drunken breath and looked at Evan gently.

She knew that although she was watching me, there was nothing wrong with her usual behavior.

The hero of the empire, the knight who is making the most contributions to combating extinction.

He was sincere, and his demeanor and appearance set a model for all knights.

And… The thief who impregnated my daughter before marriage.

Garot grabbed his head as he saw the two opposite images constantly colliding in his head.

Concerned that the more he thought about it, the more he would become violent toward Evan, Garot drank his drink again and opened his mouth.

“Did you pay attention?”

“…Yes?”

“Irene. We know that pregnancy is not normal. If you don’t take care of it, who will take care of it?”

“Oh, I am trying.”

Garotte’s eyebrows twitched at the word “Effort”, But Evan calmly continued to speak even after seeing such a situation.

“We used to drink warm water instead of tea, refrain from strenuous exercise, and go for a walk together. When I said there was something I needed, I went out and bought it myself, and I managed and carefully selected the food for Irene to eat.”

At Evan’s words, Garrot nodded quietly. It was clear from this that she was putting in a lot of effort.

If Evan hadn’t done this even though Irene had conceived,

Garot was seriously considering hitting her on the head with a bottle of alcohol.

As Garot put down the bottle, Evan sighed in relief and looked at Garrot.

“Even if I apologize now, nothing will change, but I will… Take responsibility.”

“I once said that I was responsible.”

Tuk, Garot touched the rim of the empty glass with his finger and smiled bitterly.

The word “Responsibility” Could be uttered by anyone. Since he himself once said that he would take responsibility,

Garot gently closed his eyes as he recalled his companion who was now out of the world.

“However, few truly do it.”

“……”

“Two months until the total lunar eclipse, eight months until Irene’s birth. Is there any guarantee that you, who have already died once, will not die again?”

Evan couldn’t answer that confidently.

Because he died once in a fight with Bil Tane, he couldn’t easily say that he would never die.

If Extinction succeeds in reviving the old dragon, they will have to fight to the death again.

“It’s something I’ve been through once, and as much as it hurts, it’s me, not Irene, who is most anxious. Even though Irene made a big mistake when she was young, she is still working hard as her father.”

His wife, who gave birth to her Irene, was sickly.

Although she was stronger than anyone else in front of her family, Garot knew that she was slowly getting sick inside.

When she finally lost her wife, Garrot held her Irene to forget her sorrow.

From noble mtl dot com

No one to grieve anymore, no one to lose.

She repeated with her own hands what she had been subjected to as a child and vowed never to repeat it again.

Because she had inflicted irreparable wounds, it was all she suffered internally.

What was the reason for not telling me that Irene was pregnant?

Maybe it’s because he knows that Evan will be angry,

Her biggest reason was that her father wasn’t fatherly. She

Lost her wife and was abandoned by her daughter, too. He laughed hard, but the laugh was close to a lie.

“Someone said, don’t live lying down, stand up and die.”

Garot shook her head. That was the wrong word.

She wouldn’t know if she was a person with nothing left, but if she was a person with a lot left, she had to live somehow.

A knight named Evan now has a lover named Irene and even has a child. She should never have risked her life.

“If I make Irene a widow, she will pursue you even if I commit suicide.”

“…I will keep that in mind.”

“I will chase her to the ends of hell and curse her ears. I will make you regret your death forever, until you try to immerse your soul into the Three Tales of Heaven.”

Evan gave her a small nod, and Garrot, who had emptied her glass again, swung her whale.

The reason she found out that Irene was pregnant was minor.

When she heard that she liked to drink lemon tea instead of her usual darjeeling and took a book instead of her sword, she just questioned her maid just in case.

When she just found out about it, she was furious to the top of her head, but…

Now, Evan Fried, who had apparently been chosen as his son-in-law, could no longer be harsh with his knight.

Aside from being angry with Irene, she always had a good opinion of him, so he didn’t even want to be angry with him.

From now on, all he could do was believe in him, and if he vented his anger while putting pressure on him, it would only backfire.

“Heh heh…”

When I stop thinking about getting angry, all that remains is a dejected smile.

Laughing at the empty space, Garot rubbed his eyelids and swallowed the sighs that kept leaking out.

It’s something to celebrate and something to be happy about, so why are you so depressed?

Perhaps he intuitively sensed that the time had come for him to take a step back.

When Irene gives birth to a child and Evan officially becomes a couple with Irene.

Wouldn’t it be okay to pass on the shield now?

It was enough for Irene and Evan to get married, give birth to grandchildren, and make them laugh a few times.

It was a much humbler future than the ambitions he had when he was young, but Garot wanted a little more of that kind of future.

Defeating extinction and becoming a hero, standing tall at the center of the 5 major families of the empire and reigning.

It was all good, but now what does it mean?

Although he was still too young to be called his grandfather, Garot was skeptical of this reality.

If it’s the faction that Irene recently created,

It was clear that he would remain as a strong force supporting Julis even after he left.

If he put in some time, he could become the head of the household of Julis. Garot leaned his head against the chair after thinking about that.

“The alcohol is bitter.”

However, the face looked much more comfortable than before.

What was built on his lips was a smile without a trace of regret.

Garot, who had soothed the drunkenness rising from inside with mana, opened her mouth to Evan.

“When will the wedding be held?”

“…Not decided yet. Everything about extinction should be dealt with, and perhaps the ceremony should be held after the child is born.”

Where is the bride who wants to wear a wedding dress with a full body?

Making a marriage proposal is even before giving birth to a child,

I was planning to hold her ceremony properly only after Irene’s physical condition improved after giving birth.

I thought I wouldn’t change even if someone cursed at me.

Evan was determined to stick with this idea, unless Irene herself said to raise her ceremony before that.

“I will not be in a position to argue about it. Yes, I will become a grandfather.”

Every time Garot opened her mouth, Evan felt like her mouth was on fire.

She certainly doesn’t sound like a story she’s bringing up to denigrate herself,

When she was in the position of committing a crime, every word she said pierced her heart.

She doesn’t seem to be drinking even if she’s drunk, she just wants to get out of here and go to her room.

Irene would understand this feeling. Evan, who tried to soothe her sore throat with alcohol,

As Garot’s expression gradually got better, she desperately hoped that time would pass quickly.

“…Yes, I think I have finished what I have to say to you today.”

When Garot said that after seeing her completely empty bottle, Evan lowered her head slightly and made a serious expression.

Even though she wanted to leave this place, she knew all about what he meant to say to her.

Losing her wife, carving into his heart the words of a man hated even by her daughter.

Evan slowly stood up from her seat while supporting Garrot’s body.

“I don’t think you intend to tell Irene everything about the blood that flowed from your forehead earlier. If you have a conscience.”

“Has the scar gone already? I will not inform Irene separately.”

“…I’ll see. Keep in mind that I am constantly watching with her eyes to see if you are really a good fit for Irene.”

Evan nodded, and Garot, who was sitting on the bed, rubbed her reddened cheek.

I could get rid of alcohol with mana, but today I just wanted to stay drunk.

Just one thing that she had forgotten came to her head, and after thinking about it for a while, Garot opened her mouth.

When she is in her 8th week of pregnancy, when her gender is gradually differentiated, shouldn’t we know whether it is her grandson or granddaughter?

“So, son or daughter?”

“…Ah, that’s it.”

Evan sneaked up to the door and looked at Garrot without answering for a moment.

If the duke heard this answer, how would it react?

However, no matter what you imagine, the end will be catastrophe, so Evan smiled awkwardly and pursed her lips.

“I heard they are twins… So, one son and one daughter…”

“Twins.”

“…Yes, twins.”

Heh heh.

Garot, who just let out the laughter that leaked out of her mouth, smiled warmly.

Then, lightly holding the empty bottle next to her, he tossed it at Evan and roared.

“Evan- Fried!”

In an instant, at the gigantic shout that duke Inama rang out, Lopena, who was waiting under her, let out a sigh.

When will the duke calm down?

Perhaps, unless Irene directly steps forward, the Duke’s wrath towards Evan will not stop.
