The soldier shouted save (88)

Episode 12

A letter with the royal family’s seal.

As I returned to my room and looked down at the letter, what Park Jun-hee had said flashed through my mind.

‘You said the palace was suspicious of me.’

I open the letter without delay and check its contents.

The letter contained a request to summon Allen Hower, known as ‘Walker’s Blue Flash’, to help subjugate the demon race.

‘That’s a lie.’

It said that my help was needed to subdue the demons, but it was just an excuse without much thought.

A party of warriors who practically rule the palace.

If just one of them comes forward, we can easily deal with the demons.

‘They suspect me of being the fake Professor Mateo.’

It was only a matter of time before the palace became suspicious.

Not only was he related to the candidate for sainthood by blood, but he was also a renowned swordsman who was so good at handling the sword that he wouldn’t feel out of place even if he were to disguise himself as Mateo.

‘Since you were blatantly hiding your face while you were at Walker, your suspicions must have turned into certainty.’

It doesn’t matter what triggered your suspicions.

Because the fake Professor Matteo’s face exposed at the Academy will soon disappear.

‘It’s time to come.’

I sit on the bed and wait for the results of this expedition.

-dripping.

The sound of a relentless knock on the door.

A familiar face opens the door and enters the room.

“… … I roughly drew the face you want to change into. Would you like to see it?”

Oh Seo-young hands over a portrait drawn on white paper.

A beautiful face without scars.

Distinct eyebrows.

Mysterious blue eyes.

I nod my head as I look at the portrait, which gives a different impression from my usual face.

“What a great drawing skill.”

“… … Well, that was my major.”

“Does your face really change like in this portrait?”

“I’ll check it out and if you don’t like it, I’ll change it back for you. Don’t worry, I’ll save your current appearance separately.”

I feel more comfortable after traveling with you.

Seoyoung Oh, who doesn’t stutter, reaches out and grabs his arm without hesitation.

[Oh Hye-jeong used the ‘Appearance Change Ticket’.]

[Do you ‘agree’?]

“I agree.”

What do you see before your eyes?

Her fingers dance busily in the air.

“The eyes are blue, the skin is scar-free… If I change the cheekbones, nose, and eyes to this… … .”

Oh Seo-young stops her busy fingers.

He nodded, looking back and forth between the portrait and me, as if satisfied.

“I think it’s similar.”

I check my face in the mirror that Oh Seo-young holds out to me.

In front of the mirror, I saw a noble young man who seemed ignorant of the ways of the world.

“… … I can only see the eyes.”

Blue eyes that seem to look at the sea.

“How is it? Should I edit it some more?”

It wasn’t bad, but he became a completely different person from his usual face.

“Let’s include the old features as well so that you don’t feel uncomfortable.”

Oh Seo-young nodded and moved her hands busily again.

“How about this time?”

At my request, they added scars back to the previously clean skin, and adjusted the hair to make the blue eyes look slightly visible.

The impression that the old face and brotherly feeling have changed.

Look in the mirror and be sure.

“At this point, no one would think of him as the same person as Professor Mateo.”

“… … Hmm, I’ll just slightly adjust the tail of the eye.”

Detailed finishing touches that took an hour.

“Now, wait a minute! Let’s just have the tip of the nose like before.”

When Oh Seo-young stops me from getting up from my seat, I sigh.

“… … That’s the 8th time you’ve said that.”

I turn my back on Oh Seo-young, who is constantly trying to change my face, and leave the room.

“… …Allen?”

My steps led me to the office of the lord’s mansion.

Marie Walker, who was looking at my face with a confused expression, nodded her head with an “Ah.”

“So you changed your face with the customization I mentioned before… …?”

Marie stares into my blue eyes with a blank expression.

With this level of response, the new face must be considered a success.

“Don’t you want to go for a walk together?”

“……yes?”

“I think I should show you my face.”

He winks outside, where spies are swarming.

Marie smiles as if she understood without any further explanation.

“Okay, I’ll get ready and go.”

He nods and leaves the office to change clothes.

‘It would be better to show it clearly.’

It’s better to give the impression that the atmosphere has changed rather than the appearance.

To freshen up the mood, wear the other-worldly suit you bought at Sunlight.

‘The clothes seem too small.’

I wait for a moment at the entrance wearing the stuffy otherworldly clothes.

“I was trying to surprise you, but Allen came wearing other world clothes too?”

A fragile-looking woman who doesn’t fit in with the grand mansion.

Stare at the unfamiliar sight and make a sound.

“… … What are those clothes?”

It was a dress that seemed to smell like flowers.

A tight-fitting pink dress, not the lavish dresses often worn by nobles.

It was Mari wearing clothes from another world.

“It’s an otherworldly one-piece dress that’s being sold at a general store. It’s more comfortable than I thought.”

Even though his appearance changed, the lord’s dignity did not disappear.

As Marie leads the maids with powerful steps, the others follow her one step behind.

“Hello, my lord!”

“nice to meet you.”

The people of Yeongji greet each other as they see Marie Walker.

He looks around while holding the scabbard equipped on his waist.

“… … Oh my goodness, look at your lord. You are so pretty.”

“Hmm, I heard that otherworldly clothes are against the etiquette of nobles… … .”

“What about manners? Our lord is wearing it, so the trend will change now!”

“… … By the way, who is that person next to you?”

“Who are you? You are the commander of the knights, Allen!”

“… … Really? It seems like you’ve become more gentle than before?”

People who are looking at Marie Walker and my face and muttering.

But the ones who should be watching the reaction are not these people, but the spies in the palace.

“… … Are you sure about Captain Allen Hower?”

“Looking at the lord’s appearance, it is true that the escort is not a simple knight.”

It was as expected.

I enhanced my hearing with mana and focused on those who were late to mingle with the crowd, and a meaningful voice was heard.

‘I’m not sure if it’s Allen.’

Spies staring at my face, wanting to gain confidence.

Marie, reading the hesitant atmosphere, smiles and grabs my arm.

“Sir Allen, I will go and buy a gift first.”

“…What kind of gift are you talking about?”

“I’d like to eat something. Druids only eat things found in the forest.”

Marie smiled and linked arms friendly.

Then, the spies mixed in with the crowd secretly exchanged voices.

“I’m sure the author is Allen.”

“What makes you so sure?”

“The only man that Walker’s lord can be so friendly with is Blue Flash. Bring the painters over quickly!”

I didn’t intend to simply remember the face.

They were even planning to draw a portrait of me to show my exact face.

‘I have to make sure this face is imprinted on my mind right now.’

The spies had to be given time to finish the portrait.

He slows down and points to the front of the convenience store.

“How about that as a gift?”

A man is seen putting unfamiliar ingredients into a pot and boiling them, perhaps to demonstrate something.

Marie smiles as if she knows what it is, having checked the pot with the onlookers.

“It’s ramen. If you boil the noodles fried in oil with the prepared seasoning, it tastes amazing.”

“… …Is this food from another world?”

“Yes, it’s a different world food that I tried a few days ago. I’m sure it’ll soon sweep up the continent’s gold coins once again.”

Judging from the reaction, it seems that they are considering ramen as a new specialty to follow in the footsteps of Raoul Poole.

“Buy plenty.”

At Marie’s words, the maid comes with a purse and buys a bundle of ramen.

“I’ll take this as a gift.”

As I was patrolling the switched walkers and buying gifts for the druids, the sun began to set.

“Okay. You drew it exactly the same. Let’s go back.”

Spies who stop following and turn around after getting what they wanted.

When their presence disappears, the bridge stops.

‘Now you can’t connect me with the fake Professor Mateo just by looking at his face.’

There was no longer any reason to wander aimlessly through Walker’s streets.

She takes the ingredients for the ramen from the maid and turns around to walk away.

“I will make sure to deliver the gift to the Druid.”

When I revealed my intention to go straight to the World Tree Forest, Mari smiled with a regretful expression.

“If you need any help, just let me know, Allen.”

Leaving Marie behind, who was seeing me off with a smile, I headed towards the bushy area.

“Crunch!”

A gray wolf came out to greet us at the entrance.

As we followed the wolf who claimed to be our guide, a familiar face came into view.

“Sir…? Are you sir?”

Hyelin runs over to me with a curious expression on her face and stares at my face intently.

“Wow, that’s really interesting. Your impression is completely different when your eye color changes.”

A lively appearance without any signs of fatigue.

“What are they?”

When we point out the accessories that don’t match her youthful appearance, Hye-rin shows off her fingers and ears.

“What is it? These earrings are the eyedrops of mana that I received from Mr. Park Won-cheol, this is a ring called the breathing lake, and also… … .”

I could tell without even hearing an explanation what role the mismatched accessory played.

“Isn’t there any chance of experiencing mana exhaustion anymore?”

“Yes. As long as it’s not a random shooting, there’s nothing to worry about.”

“… … What does that mean?”

“Ignorance fire? It means shooting without thinking, but there’s no need to know anything about it… … Wait a minute! Th, what’s that?”

Before I could answer, Hye-rin snatched what was in my hand and examined its contents.

“Crazy… … Is this really that thing?”

“They say it’s an ingredient in a food called ramen.”

“Wow, wow!! Can I eat this now?”

As I nodded, Hye-rin ran over with an excited face and raised her voice to someone.

“Please prepare a pot and fire!”

A druid nods his head at the unexpected remark and prepares a bonfire.

I stopped Hye-rin, who was trying to follow the Druid with a possessed look on her face.

“Finish the basics and eat. Where is the rest?”

“…It’s over there.”

Following Hye-rin’s guidance, we enter the Druid’s house.

“… … Ah, customizing?”

The chief inside stared at my unfamiliar face for a few seconds, then lowered his gaze back to the wad of parchment and spoke.

“The important figures of the palace are listed there. When you’ve looked through them all, come this way.”

Examine the parchment pointed to by the chief.

The parchment contained the personal information of the main characters, as well as the special privileges they possessed.

‘… How did you find out about the privileges of key figures?’

Information that is difficult to find out even if the leader infiltrates.

The thought didn’t last long.

Because there was only one person in Walker who knew this information.

“Park Jun-hee opened his mouth surprisingly easily.”

Park Jun-hee, the hostage taken from Giru.

The chief sighs deeply as he thinks of him.

“Don’t trust it too much. It’s information easily leaked by someone who claims to be loyal to the palace.”

What kind of change of heart did you have?

According to the leader, they had only had one meal in the World Tree Forest, but they suddenly became cooperative.

“There must be an ulterior motive.”

“… … It’s obvious, but I think it’s sincere. It’s almost identical to our information. It could be bait, but it’s worth memorizing.”

The ‘Mailbox’ privilege that allows you to send items to others anytime, anywhere.

Finding out what he was thinking was a priority over memorizing information.

“It would be good to create an intimate environment and take a look. When you eat otherworldly cuisine, invite Park Jun-hee along.”

“… … Otherworldly cuisine? Oh, is it ramen or something?”

“I’ll boil it right away!”

Perhaps because she couldn’t wait, Hye-rin ran out and started cooking in front of the campfire.

“Please bring Park Jun-hee.”

When the Druid calls out to Park Jun-hee, he comes supporting a blind woman.

“… … I never dreamed that I would be eating ramen here.”

“Is this your world food? What does it taste like?”

Did he prioritize his lover over the palace?

The two look happy despite being watched by more than ten druids and animals.

He says this while watching the food Hye-rin is cooking.

“It would be better to start preparing to eat now.”

“It’s not ripe yet?”

“If you divide it into bowls, the noodles will get soggy.”

“Oh, I see. Then I’ll divide it into bowls?”

“… No, if I do that, the side of the pot will be a shame… … Ha, I’ll just do it.”

Park Jun-hee, who was watching the noodles fall into the bonfire, accepts Hye-rin’s ladle.

“Take it.”

He skillfully arranges them on plates and places them in front of each person.

“Oh, oh. Is it spicy?”

“Me, me too… .”

Unlike the chieftain, who frowned arrogantly, the two from another world were busy eating.

-Hurururup!

The noodles being sucked into Park Jun-hee and Hye-rin’s mouths.

“Wow, wow! Is Jaehyun crazy too?”

“… … Excellent.”

He raises his voice while glancing at Park Jun-hee, who is licking his lips with soup.

“You acted like you would die for the palace, so why did you suddenly become cooperative?”

When I ask this question absentmindedly while eating ramen, Park Jun-hee stops holding the utensils.

“…I just had doubts.”

“doubt?”

“Because there’s no way Prell could be lying when he said he saw you and me together.”

Unlike me, Park Jun-hee believes that the scene that Prell saw in ‘scene flashback’.

“After thinking about it for a while, I came to this conclusion.”

He looks at my face and says.

“Play multiple times. Maybe this is the second world.”

His words were difficult to understand.
