3. Ashera Glaad & Chersha Kalua (29)

***

Regular visits to the Glaade Mansion by envoys from the Marquis of Birwalce continued. Did he not give up while looking at Ashera Glade, or did he have any regrets?

In fact, it was to the point where we could feel each other very clearly now.

A one-sided proposal for an arranged marriage.

However, even so, Ashera was cleverly passing his words well, and as time passed, Tolish himself was gradually getting tired of the results with no possibility.

Even when he left Birbalce’s mansion in the capital, his self-confident appearance gradually disappeared as if it was permeating the darkness.

No Tolish Again, in the back of his mind, he might already know the outcome.

He had earned his father’s trust by keeping his word, and he felt even more nervous because he had kept his word.

And even now Tolish he couldn’t get any results.

Even after talking for about two hours, Ashera’s attitude toward arranged marriages was unwavering.

“Let’s stop here for today.”

Filia, unable to see Tolish’s appearance as if he was hanging on over the line, intervened.

“…Yes.”

Tolish, who finally regained her reason at Philia’s cold voice, nodded her head slightly. In a way, it seemed that he had resigned himself or that he was showing signs of desperation.

After seeing them off, Ashera returns to her office looking exhausted.

After she was in the drawing room, she didn’t want to go back there because she thought she would recall the conversation again.

‘Persistent.’

I wanted to keep Ed as an escort and notice them whenever they came. Ed, whose position had risen as a result of the sparring a few days ago, could no longer be his escort.

While slowly changing the impression of him within the family, he had to gradually prepare to succeed his successor.

Azelan Glead left the family just yesterday.

As a result, her succession plan was effectively over with Ed.

Her grandfather consistently answered silently, and most importantly, I myself did not have the heart to seek succession, so it was a natural order in a way.

Because of the vassals who came to visit him after yesterday and asked if he would change his mind about the succession, the fortress was to the extent that he became accustomed to dealing with people.

Clap.

When she arrived at her own office and sat down in her seat, the maid Selua, who had been walking beside her, helped organize the papers on the light desk and began to organize the surroundings.

Selua didn’t have time to rest as she kept hanging around and helping Ashera.

“Still, visits from other families have significantly decreased due to the delegation of the Marquis of Birwalce.”

“That’s true, but…”

Because of Birbalce’s persistent will to get married, other half-married families gave up their opinions long ago and stopped visiting.

It could be said that if you had some time to spare, you didn’t feel so relaxed when you directly faced that attitude that was more persistent than you thought.

“Should I tell Ed?”

“No, this is the end for today. I’ll go myself.”

Good.

Ashera, who gathered her documents and placed them on one side of her desk, looked lighter as she thought of the next meeting.

It was like an unspoken promise to have dinner with Ed before he knew it. However, since there were frequent days when he finished all his duties and trained, he usually made dinner by visiting the underground gymnasium.

“I will take care of the minor after-effects.”

“Then, please.”

Asera stood up from her seat and saw her leave her office, her Selua saw her off with a small smile.

**

A special gymnasium in the basement of the Glead Mansion that is said to be available only to those who have been given the Glead Castle.

There now Ashera and Ed. The two were clashing swords.

Chang!

Chang ㅡㅡ!

Swords collided with swords and a sharp piercing sound rang out.

“This much growth in such a short period of time…”

Asera, who crossed swords, looked at Ed with a small surprised expression and smiled lightly.

I felt excited as if Ed’s growth was his own. As far as he himself knew, Ed he had apparently been in the ranks of the advanced knights for less than a year.

In the meantime, he had risen to the highest level and was getting used to everything from the use of aura to the mana worn on his body.

‘As a high-ranking knight, there was something uneasy about elevating him to the position of successor.’

From noble mtl dot com.

There is no big problem in promoting Ed as his successor now.

The victory in the confrontation with Tolish a few days ago definitely had a big impact, so couldn’t you feel the eyes of the family members slowly changing when they looked at Ed?

To the point of being half-assured, I felt that his talent was only now blooming.

His appearance now was at such a dazzling rate of growth that it could not be explained otherwise.

“Even though you are doing your best, Lady Ashera still has plenty of room.”

Ed, who had no longer felt inferiority against Ashera, let out a natural smile as he slashed his sword.

Chang!

Asera, who had cut off the sword as if shedding it, took a step closer to Ed and stretched out her hand that was not holding the sword.

I grab his knight’s uniform as if pulling it and throw it to one side of the gymnasium as if throwing it as it is.

“Queup!”

Ed, who took a narrow fall, hurriedly got up, avoiding just rolling on the ground.

‘… That’s this much power from those slender hands.’

In an instant, when he confirmed that the knight’s uniform held by Ashera was hanging down, he wondered how much force he could pull to make it wolves.

“Ed, your swordsmanship itself has been perfected to some extent. Moreover, the blue wave is at a level that I don’t have anything to point out…. But you still lack practical experience.”

As if waiting for Ed to stance, Ashera spoke slowly and lowered her sword.

At that posture that seemed so defenseless, Ed exhaled lightly and took off.

At the same time, Ed’s body, wrapped in blue waves, rushes toward Ashera once again.

Shhhhh.

The blue waves grow in size with a strange sound as if the air is shaken by the waves.

Asera, who continued to take no action while looking at Ed like that, suddenly raised her left hand, which did not hold the sword.

“I am serious!”

Ed shouted in bewilderment as he looked at him.

It was the moment when his body was already accelerating, and he reached Ashera in an instant.

“I’m not trying to take care of you again, so just hit it and come back.”

After Ashera’s words with a soft smile, Ed’s whole body wrapped in blue waves collided with the defenseless Ashera.

Not clear. Seemed to collide.

“… How.”

Ed, who was dazedly expressing blue waves, exclaimed in admiration at the unbelievable sight that happened in front of him.

He was the Blue Wave, the type 2 swordsmanship that Glad had expressed from his heart.

Rising to the highest level, the intensity and strength of the wave went up to a far higher level.

“As I said earlier, I have no intention of breaking your confidence. However, being flawless in your swordsmanship would sometimes put you in danger, Ed. I just wanted to let you know.”

Asera, not holding a sword Her hand was wrapped in something like a strange blue film.

And the huge blue membrane covering Ed’s whole body was blocked by the blue membrane surrounding Ashera’s slender hand, preventing him from moving forward.

‘Is this possible…’

It wasn’t long before Ed came to a realization.

With her hand that doesn’t hold her sword, Ashera realizes that she is manifesting a type 2 blue wave.

It must have been the principle of the blue wave type 2 to create a flow while swinging the sword, and to continue to express that flow….

“It is only an extension of the manifestation of the black aura. What I’m manifesting now may seem lightly manifested to you, but I’m expressing it with all my might. To put it in principle, if you can express an aura even with a hand that is not holding a sword, you can express enough blue waves.”

Expresses an aura with a hand other than a sword.

Asera She was talking as if it was too easy.

“… After all, you can’t beat the lady.”

As I listened to the lady’s explanation, which I didn’t understand at all, I remembered the contents as if I was imprinting them in my head.

How strong is the strength of a young lady who is at a level where even she, who has reached the highest level, cannot grasp that level? Rather, it seemed that fear would arise as the level of knowledge increased.

As she slowly released the blue wave that enveloped her, Ashera also released the blue curtain-like wave created by her hand.

“Then did I win this sparring?”

“Yes. I lost.”

Seeing Ashera asking her about the result of her sparring, Ed calmly admitting his defeat was drawn to her momentarily by her strong attraction.

Just as Ashera pulled Ed’s arm, she so naturally made him come to her, and she slowly surrendered herself into his arms.

Obviously, it was done as if being pulled by Ashera, but at the end, a form was created as if Ashera was being embraced by Ed.

“…Then hold still for a moment.”

Seeing Ashera whispering in Ed’s arms, Ed slowly relaxed. From that tone of voice, I read Ashera’s tiredness without knowing it, so she just stayed still as she did.

Ed he knew that she was overdoing it these past few days.

As many of her other Glade brothers have left her life or left the family, most of them, from their line to her tasks to be resolved, have turned to Asherah.

Conscious of Ashera’s expression as she exhaled softly in her arms, she slowly raised her hand and caressed her hair.

Awkward.

Ashera trembled slightly at Ed’s hand touching her own head. It was a really small gesture, as if he hadn’t expected Ed to act like that.

“Ed, but I’m older…. Stroking the hair is…”

A little bit dissatisfied with her voice, I couldn’t help but smile.

I often forgot even the age of the lady because I called her a lady every time.

The slender body of the young lady held in her own arms sometimes did not give the impression that she was older than he was. It felt even stronger now as he carefully stroked her shoulder-length blue hair.

As she is, she herself, maybe the young lady will not accept it.

“You can lean on me sometimes… but I’m fine.”

“Saying that… Is really cowardly.”

But unlike those words, Ashera just rubbed her face in Ed’s arms, as if she felt a pleasant sense of comfort.
