57 – Unexpected Accident

about 2 years.

It may not be enough to clear away all the misunderstandings and sorrows between family members that have accumulated so far, but it was enough time for them to change their views on each other and quietly return to their place.

Over breakfast, they share each other’s current situation, then gather together and drink tea together.

It was an ordinary sight that could be seen in any family, but even this daily life was so fresh and precious to the Loveheim family.

“Ed did that yesterday? Is it too much for your father to see?”

Today, while we were sitting around drinking tea and talking, Ariel’s complaint came out briefly.

Most of the things she could complain about were related to one person, so it was a sight that the Loveheim couple were quite used to by now.

“Heh heh, that’s right. Where is this father going to call me and give me a scolding?”

“Well, I don’t want that much. After all, he can’t even move with just one word from me.”

When he heard that Yulken, who was no one else, would scold him, Ariel hurriedly stopped him.

A soft smile formed on Helene’s lips as she watched this from the side.

It is a very cute lie to say that the boy is unable to move at a word from his daughter.

There seemed to be dozens of scenes Helene could refute that statement, but for today, she kept her mouth shut to cheer up her daughter.

“Well? Come to think of it, it’s already been quite some time. Didn’t you say you had an appointment?”

“Ah, yes… It’s not even a promise.”

Recently, Ariel has been learning swordsmanship and other martial arts from Edgar whenever she has time.

There were many better teachers than him, but Edgar was the only one he could learn from most comfortably.

Besides, it has its own good harvest, so it’s not too bad.

“You are working hard these days, daughter. Is it because Ed taught me well?”

“Well, what did that idiot teach you well? I’m just working hard because there is progress in my learning.”

I made up my mind to be honest with myself, but I still often say things like this in front of others.

Meanwhile, Helen, who had been watching this with sharp eyes, opened her mouth again in a coy tone.

Recently, I watched my daughter because she wanted to be honest, and if she came out like this again, she had plans.

“Oh, so? So how about learning from a new teacher this time? our daughter?”

“Bird, new teacher?”

“yes. Recently, Creed also said that he has quite a bit of time left. If it’s Creed, since I know you well, it’ll be easy to learn, wouldn’t it be fine?”

Ariel’s eyes widened at the unexpected single shot.

If it was Creed, he was definitely a teacher who fit well with Ariel’s requirements.

Basically, I know her well and have seen her often, so it won’t be awkward, and since she’s a former knight commander, her skills are at a level that makes her mouth hurt.

Isn’t Creed the one who even taught Ariel to Edgar?

In other words, it means a higher level teacher who taught the current teacher.

“How are you? If you want, Mommy can talk to Creed.”

“That, that… … .”

At the moment when Ariel was unable to do this or that in a situation where the front and back were blocked, a voice like a savior resonated quietly in the room.

smart.

– This is Edgar. May I come in?

“Come in.”

To think that the person who has risen to the topic personally steps forward.

Yulken smiled intriguedly and squirmed at his favorite savory biscuits.

“Sorry, Ariel didn’t come all along so I stopped by for a while.”

“What do you have to be sorry for? I had something to say, so I’m sorry.”

Now that he had reached the age of eighteen, Edgar gradually matured in his way of speaking and his voice became that of a full-fledged adult.

As for Helene, the friendly tone of the old days was more to my liking, but this solemn tone was not bad either, so I didn’t say anything further.

“Are you going to sit down too?”

“Ah, thank you for your consideration, but it seems difficult to fit in with Ariel’s schedule.”

“I can’t help it.”

Yulken licks his lips as if he is truly regretful.

Although his daughter was so pretty and precious that it wouldn’t hurt to put it in his eyes, it was quite enjoyable to talk with Edgar as he had longed for a son.

However, as a father, he couldn’t ruin his daughter’s schedule, so Yulken nodded lightly and encouraged Ariel to go.

Ariel cautiously got up from her seat and headed towards the door.

“Then I will go.”

“Okay, don’t push yourself too hard.”

“Yes, mother.”

The first time she mentioned this title, she shuddered with awkwardness, but now she’s quite used to it.

I couldn’t call her mother like a child forever, so I changed my mind and called her from the day I turned 17.

After saying goodbye to her parents, Ariel left the drawing room with Edgar.

I was still in my normal clothes, so I had to go back to my room and change clothes first.

* * * * * * *

I think this is one of the places Ariel visits the most these days.

The gymnasium right inside the castle.

Edgar always stuck to the backyard, saying that it felt good to move outside in the fresh air, but Ariel chose this place as her training spot because she didn’t want to show off her unsightly appearance to others.

In fact, there were a few other reasons as well.

“No, there are still a lot of superfluities. Swing it like this.”

Edgar’s teachings were very easy to understand and concise.

Maybe the teacher he studied with is very good, but basically, he did well in education tailored to the opponent’s eye level.

As he tested the posture and showed off the shape of the legs and arms, Ariel tilted her head as she copied the figure.

“like this?”

“No, it’s a little different.”

It was quite angular, but not the feeling Edgar wanted.

It is necessary to hold this posture at the beginning without any superfluities, so that it will be easy to move on to the next movement later when it is used in actual combat.

Even when he was being taught by Creed, he knew it well because he had built a solid foundation from this.

“I don’t know… Can’t you tell me directly?”

“Ah, um… Okay.”

Recently, Edgar has a problem.

I like Ariel’s willingness to learn with all her heart, but when I teach her something, she wants me to correct her posture after subtly misbehaving.

If you ask what’s wrong with that, in this case, you will inevitably have to use skinship to correct your posture.

Edgar was also one of the decent men, and I couldn’t help but be conscious of this situation.

That’s why I didn’t teach it directly, but the gongnyeo, who was busy tick-tick every time, followed me straight, but it was ambiguous to refuse for personal reasons.

It’s just that I’ve been in trouble that I can’t even do this or that.

“What about the legs?”

“Ah oh… Like this… … ?”

“Idiot, so I don’t know where to go or what to do. tell me properly.”

“… … .”

Am but, isn’t the bridge a bit dangerous though?

It wasn’t even just a leg, the place he said was about the middle of the thigh coming down from the waist.

Of course, it’s covered with pants, so it’s not bare skin, but there’s a line that should be followed even if it’s close.

‘I was so conservative.’

No, Edgar could be sure that it was definitely not that much.

In this case, it would be correct to say that Ariel became strangely open.

In the past, if you put your hand on your head incorrectly, you would be busy screaming, but I guessed that something had changed in my mind.

Anyway, the important thing now is not to make inferences about what has changed in her state of mind.

It was because he had come to watch Ariel’s training.

You should show appropriate behavior.

“For now, we have to do it this way here. How do you feel, these muscles are a little tight?”

“Yes. It feels a little pulled from the inside.”

“That’s right. This way, when you move on to the next movement, you will have momentum and it will be cleaner.”

In the end, after confiscating her face, he grabbed her thighs and corrected her posture.

“Once you’ve done this, let’s rest for a bit. You are sweaty too.”

First, basic training, then simple sparring with hands and feet.

Finally, briefly reviewing what he had done today and finishing the arrangement, Edgar lay down on the floor of the gymnasium.

“yes. Oh, and the water… … .”

“I brought it. wait for a sec.”

Ariel was also quite tired and sat down on the floor, so Edgar had no choice but to stand up and bring a small bag.

Inside, there was a water bottle, medicine for emergencies, and simple clothes in case the clothes were torn.

“Why lie down? You want to sleep?”

“I have no plans to sleep, but I am a bit tired. I had a drink with Creed yesterday.”

“It’s stupid. So why did you wake up so early in the morning?”

Today, Ariel also woke up fairly quickly, but Edgar had risen earlier to greet her.

It is safe to say that he woke up almost immediately after dawn.

‘If I’m tired, I’ll sleep more and come out.’

Ariel looked at her childhood friend who was lying on the floor with her eyes closed and gave a pitiful look.

It was good to fit her schedule, but I was worried that I might be overdoing it.

“Ed, how are you?”

“… … .”

The sound of his breathing gradually faded, so Ariel called out just in case, but it seemed that he had fallen asleep in the meantime.

Ariel, who had turned her head to look around the empty gymnasium, quietly approached Edgar from a seated state.

‘I must have been very sleepy.’

Today was the day her friend Sylvia was visiting, so I couldn’t waste too much time.

But waking him up from such a sound sleep made me feel guilty.

On the other hand, I also thought that I wanted to keep watching you sleep.

‘Somehow pissed off.’

Ariel pursed her lips as she watched him exhale gently.

When he is next to me, I get nervous for some reason, so it’s hard for me to act normally, let alone sleep.

He must not have known that his heart almost exploded when he acted as aggressively as he did earlier.

Ariel held her face over his sleeping face.

A strange sense of distance, neither far nor near.

I wanted to give him a shot for being careless like this, but he didn’t know anyway, so I couldn’t even get revenge.

Seruk. Cock.

At that moment, Ariel’s hair, wet with sweat, stung Edgar’s face.

Perhaps because it was around the eyes, which was a sensitive area, Edgar frowned and rubbed his eyes as he stood up.

Embarrassed by that, Ariel hurriedly tried to pull her face away, but the reaction was somewhat delayed.

yet,

“Now, wait… What!?”

Her shrill scream echoed through the gymnasium, and their lips overlapped.

And for a moment, everything around me stopped in place.
