The Knight Wants To Be in a Relationship - Chapter 49
49. I’ll come pick you up later
* * *
After the village feast, Eri returned to her house and lay on the bed, chewing the cud over what happened earlier.
Precisely what Evan said to himself.
‘What? If I can’t date anyone, I’ll accept you?’
Just imagining it was a word that made the fire soar. It was even more absurd that she actually heard that.
Do you think I looked so easy just because I liked you first? Do not be ridiculous. I won’t accept this…….
─ Smart.
“Kyaaak…… !?”
And then someone knocked on the window. Since no one would come to her house this late at night, and no one would come through the window—— Eri looked at the window in amazement.
A dark night when only the stars illuminate the town. Outside the window stood someone wearing something as black as the night sky.
“…… Evan?”
If you look closely, you can see that he resembles Evan. As she cautiously opened her mouth, her man hanging outside her window opened her mouth cautiously.
─Eri, Eri.
“What, it was Evan. Don’t be surprised.”
─Eri, Eri.
“What’s the matter with you coming here at night?”
With that said, she had something in mind as to why Evan had come. She must have come to apologize for the things she just said to herself.
If not? I wouldn’t even accept a conversation. She promised However, Evan outside the window only said the same thing.

─Eri, Eri, Eri.
“Ah! Seriously, what’s going on!? Don’t just call me names like that—”
Arried by Evan who kept calling me by name, Eri opened the window and looked at Evan standing outside the window.
The moment Evan and her eyes met, Eri looked stiffly up and down at Evan, who was hanging on the window sill.
‘Was Evan this furry…… ?’
When she peeked out in the dark, she had the same face and the same clothes as Evan – but when she saw it right in front of her nose like this, something completely different from Evan was standing there.
The black hem of the coat, which I thought was a coat, was hair that grew from the body, and the muzzle was stretched out strangely, and the limbs were also strangely elongated.
─Eri, I like you.
“Kyaaah!?”
The monster who spoke her words entered the room through the open window. Before Eri, who came to her senses belatedly, screamed, the monster that entered her room kidnapped Eri and left her room.
In the room, only the hair shed by the monster and the mud-stained footprints remained.

“What did I do wrong?”
Evan, who was rolling an egg round the cheek Eri had slapped, muttered that, and Anya, who was helping her clean the house, was startled to hear that and said to her Evan.
“Geo, Sword Saint-nim, you haven’t done anything wrong!”
“I didn’t do anything wrong, so why am I right?”
“Mu, of course, if my childhood friend had said that to me, I would have completely cut off all ties…… Because the swordsman is the swordsman! Are you okay!”
“…… Does that mean it’s not okay?”
Infinite affirmation, Anya’s words were also studded with thorns. No matter how ignorant Evan was, if he was this far, he was bound to notice something.
Evan jumped up from the sofa and asked Anya as she was cleaning.
“If no, if this happened to you— what do you think I should do to forgive you?”
“From the moment I said this, I think forgiveness should be given up… ….”
“I heard it’s okay because it’s the Sword Saint!? Any way!?”
“Ummm…… If he was such a precious person, wouldn’t he have said that in the first place?”
It was a theory. Evan stared blankly at Anya, lost in her words. Only then did Anya realize the seriousness of the matter and began to come up with various methods in a hurry.
“Women love pretty and shiny things, so why not give them flowers or jewelry! Oh, and the dress is nice too! I like sweet things, so buying favor with cakes…… !”
“If a girl stuck in the countryside had jewelry or a dress…….”
“Women are women, whether in the city or in the countryside!”
“Really? Then no, do you believe me?”
“Yes! Undoubtedly! Ah, from my point of view, Miss Eri doesn’t seem to be honest, so I think it would be better for Sword Master to go out a little more recklessly!”
In that short time, Anya, who even grasped Eri’s personality, provided Evan with the perfect solution.
Evan, who picked up a pretty jewelry roughly in the space, waved her hand saying he would refer to it and left the house. She greeted Evan in the middle of the night in the countryside, where there was no lantern, let alone her magical lamp over the city.
However, Evan, from the countryside, was accustomed to walking her path by relying on her starlight. Isn’t she the hometown where she has lived her whole life? Although she had been out for a few months, she hadn’t lost that familiarity of hers.
‘Eri is also a woman…… It was, indeed.’
She has been with Eri for 15 years. Since she was a child, because she is the same age, we eat together, play together, and wash together.
The village elders made us stick together as if they had already marked the two of us as a married couple.
When I think about it now, I wonder if she dared to date her lover because of her rebellious spirit to resist her destiny.
“Eri— are you sleeping?”
Arriving at her Eri’s house, Evan called her vigorously at her door. There was no one in her house.
Her parents weren’t home either, as the adults after a long party were enjoying second tea all night with leftovers.
‘Couldn’t you say that you’re angry and won’t even answer me? Not a child.’
Realizing that she even had her window open, Evan let out a huh-sigh and ran upstairs.
What to do when bugs enter…… With that thought in mind, Evan, who was hanging from the window sill on the second floor, tilted her head as she confirmed that no one was in her room.
‘What, where did you really go?’
Evan opened his eyes at her strangeness and realized that she had left footprints full of dust and a single long hair in her room.
In the house, I’ll change into indoor slippers, so there won’t be any soil like this, much less a single thick hair that’s too black to be Eri’s…….
‘…… Lover?’
Evan, who momentarily wondered if Eri had another lover, opened her eyes and stared at the fur. Luckily, she didn’t seem to have human hair.
I don’t think the fur of the hairy old man who has the thickest fur in the village is as thick and tough as this. She didn’t look like human hair at all.
“—He doesn’t look like a human.”
Evan, who was pulling her taut hair on both sides, looked out of town while saying that. An invisible darkness covered the village.
* * *
“Kyaaah-!”
Cheolpuduk-! Eri, pinned to her ground, fiercely glared at the monster who had laid her down.
Whether she knows that she is being hated or not, the monster that kidnapped her began to flirt with her by shaking her body lightly from side to side.
─I like it, I like it, I like it.
“Noisy, Loud! Don’t copy Evan’s voice!”
—I like you, Eriri. I like you.
“Well, do you know who would like that!?”
Eri screamed and realized the identity of the monster in front of me. Demon mimic. It was a monster that imitated the appearance and voice of humans and lured and kidnapped others.
It was a monster that could easily be avoided without the intelligence to open it if the window was tightly closed, but she stupidly opened the door after hearing Evan’s voice.
She didn’t even think that this monster would follow Evan’s voice after a long time.
‘Damn it…… And because of Evan…….’
Something always happens when he is there. See this again If Evan hadn’t come back, she would never have opened her door like she always did, and then this wouldn’t have happened.
She Hadn’t Evan, She Hadn’t He Had Existed, She Hadn’t Loved Him…….
“Evan, Evaan… ….”
Save me.
Because of you.
Because you made me this way.
I want you to save me from here.
─Uhik, uhihi-.
Seeing her dripping and weeping, her mimicry began to snort and make beastly noises as if she liked the way she cried.
Eri glared fiercely at her mimic while shedding tears.
─I like it, I like it.
“What, what are you doing- kyaaa!?”
The mimic tugged on Eri’s arm very carefully. However, just as an elephant can’t handle an egg with care, the egg can’t be intact——her Eri’s arm was pulled out very naturally.
With her shoulder dislocated, Eri rolled on her floor in great pain. Seeing Eri with her arm stretched like mine, her mimic giggled and aimed at her other arm.
“Oh, no- that’s not… ….”
─Eri, I like you.
“I hate it!”
The moment the Mimic got hold of Eri’s left hand like that, the sword energy that flew from somewhere cut off the Mimic’s arm.
Looking at my arms rolling on the floor, the mimic, startled, began to pull herself back quickly, screaming loudly.
“—Damn it.”
But no matter how fast she moved, she couldn’t dodge the sword that cut even the clouds in the sky. Leaving behind the monster that had become so sluggish in an instant, Evan walked towards Eri who was rolling on the floor.
Seeing Eri shedding tears with her arms missing, Evan lightly chuckled.
“Wow- A crying face. Ugly.”
“Hey, uhhhhh-! Evaaan!”
“…… Oh, isn’t it time to joke?”
Seeing Eri being hugged by her, Evan sighed and looked at her arm.
“I missed it. Hang on a minute.”
“Huh? Whoa-!? aaagh! It hurts, it hurts!”
“Enough. Drink the potion.”
“Ahhh! It hurts!”
How many times has a young girl helping out in the countryside experienced an experience similar to the pain of her arm falling out? For her, what she went through today was one of those experiences that were so intense that she would remember her for the rest of her life.
Having heard a lot of stories from people in her city or guild who have been through this, Evan realizes that if she doesn’t put this memory over her, it will haunt her for the rest of her life, and even more, it may become her trauma. Remembered.
I didn’t immediately think of something strong enough to cover the pain in this situation, but fortunately I remembered what Anya had said.
─City or country, a woman is a woman!
That’s right.
Like Evan, who dreamed of wielding a sword while reading the story of a warrior.
Eri must have dreamed of becoming a princess in that story.
If you saved the princess, there’s only one thing left after that.
“Eri.”
“Huuu…… !”
“Look at me.”
Her eyes meet Eri’s eyes as she raises her head with her tears dripping down her face. She looked at herself without stopping her moans.
Funny faces. Seeing her face, Evan let out a smirk and cautiously approached her.
“I’ll come back to pick it up later.”
“Hey, what… ….”
Page -.
Her After kissing her, Evan slowly parted her lips and said.
“My first kiss.”
“… ….”
For a moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.
Eri, who had been staring blankly at Evan, forgetting even to cry, began to carefully fumble her lips.
And the next moment.
“Mi, you crazy bastard!”
The same words I heard during the day.
But the tone was different.
Hearing that, Evan burst out laughing at her.

She succeeded.
