The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist

68. Become a member of our family!

banquet hall.

The head of the house seemed to have heard all the news. In the banquet hall, only me, Master, and the head of the house were filling the seats.

“Ethan, I heard everything about Aen from Sylvia.”

I was taken aback by his calm tone. I didn’t know what to say, so I just kept looking.

‘Never tell your father that you’re using magic.’

‘… I will.’

‘If you know, your neck may run away from the spot. This is a secret between you and me.’

Could it be because I exchanged such a promise with Master once? For some reason, I was not comfortable with the current situation, as if my conscience was pricked.

“Ethan, Sylvie. We, the Lynchesters, will take care of this.”

“Yes. Please.”

“This is not only your and Sylvia’s honor at stake, but the Lynchester family’s honor as well.”

That meant burying Aen’s affairs.

In the end, Aen entered the Demon Realm and was deemed dead due to an attack by a group of demon beasts.

He didn’t like the death of an attempted criminal with honor, but it seemed inevitable.

“And Ethan… .”

“Yes, my lord.”

“This Beneck von Lynchester was impressed. Doesn’t it mean that she threw herself into protecting Sylvie, my daughter and your teacher?”

It was true, but it was a little strange to hear such words.

However, Benek looked at me with rather impressed eyes and nodded.

“Therefore, Beneck von Linchester wants to accept you as a member of the Lynchester family.”

I almost spit out the tea I was drinking.

I swallowed the tea that was barely in my mouth and rolled my eyes hard.

“Well, what do you mean by that?”

“I will accept you as my adopted son. Don’t you have a family to look after you?”

That’s right.

To be honest, I don’t even know what Ethan is doing. In fact, let’s go! In fact, as a secret of his birth, Ethan was a scion of a prestigious family!

Even if I said that, I was confident that I wouldn’t be surprised.

Still, this is a bit sudden.

“Ah, are you hesitant about marrying Sylvie?”

That’s not it.

Sylvia was getting nervous again at the word marriage.

“father… ! The story of that marriage has already been talked about… .”

“Shut up. Sylvia von Lynchester. I didn’t talk to you.”

“… sorry.”

Sylvia pursed her lips and began to be silent again.

“Ethan. I hope Sylvie gets married soon and is truly happy. Because that is the heart of a father.”

“I see.”

“But I’ll regret it if my only daughter shows up sad about a marriage she didn’t want.”

“Yes Yes. I think you will.”

That’s why I came to the conclusion that I need to become stronger within 3 years. That must have been a compromise between the two.

“But, unlike marriage, there is nothing wrong with your being a member of the Lynchester family? After all, you, who do not share a drop of blood, become my adopted son.”

My opinion was a disregard for it.

“father! That’s because Edan’s opinion is also important… .”

“Shut up. Sylvie. You’ve been climbing quite a bit lately because you have a disciple?”

Master became sullen again. Seeing such a reaction breaks my heart.

To have such an authoritative man as his adoptive father?

There is nothing to worry about for a long time. It is an absolute specification.

I hated the high-handed top-down subordination system, so I did everything I could to leave Logness. It was because he endured the eccentricity of being branded as a madman.

I don’t think I’m going to fall under such a party.

“Dear Benek von Lynchester.”

“okay… speak.”

“I was well aware of the broad mind that thought of me. Thank you very much. However, I have Sylvia as my teacher.”

Benek’s brow narrowed slightly.

Just narrowing the gap between the eyebrows is such an intimidating feeling. I spoke hastily.

“But if I were to join the Lynchester family, I would have to prioritize the head of the family as a member of the family. So please, I beg you to allow me to serve Sylvia as my teacher first, as I do now!”

Hearing my words, Benek’s expression strangely softened. Soon, Dangju burst into a cheerful laugh.

“Kuh, keuhhahahahaha!”

Laughter continued until the banquet hall left.

“You completely kick away the promised wealth and honor! Is my daughter-in-law good enough to reject the head of the household?”

Why is it interpreted that way?

But he had neither the strength nor the mind to die. It was because I had my heart sink because I was caught by Master in the morning.

“I know very well how much you love my daughter. Since there is such a man, Sylvia is also smiling like that.”

dizzy

It felt like my mental strength was being cut into chunks.

“Yes, Ethan. If you don’t mind, keep serving my daughter. But come into the family.”

“yes… ?”

“I will not give you any high-handed orders. The same goes for my daughter. What if that’s the case?”

Benek was smiling.

Wow, this doesn’t give you a hole to escape from. Does this honest momentum come from age?

At this rate, it seemed like he would get caught up in that pace.

“Will you give me a chance to think a little?”

In the end, I ended up using the cheat key.

On the way out of the banquet hall, Master’s eyes met. Somehow the atmosphere turned awkward.

“What are you glancing at? Do you want to spy on your master?”

“Oh, no.”

A smile spread across his lips at the playful question.

“still… , I know well how you feel toward me. You might be a little happy.”

Master’s cheeks flushed slightly. that was pretty cute

“Thank you for looking at me like that.”

“But I like men who are stronger than me.”

“… … ”

Master gently held my ear and secretly whispered in my ear.

“Hehe, if you plan on taking me before then, don’t even dream about it.”

Naturally, I remembered Master’s naked body that I had seen at the hot spring. It felt like my ears were going to explode.

Master please… . Please don’t use that expression.

However, the moment I said that, I shed bloody tears in my heart, knowing that Master’s obscenity would continue.

After a rough breakfast, we headed to the personal training grounds. Even though Master had been poisoned, he seemed to be in good health.

“Edan, there is something to check. Did you use a mixture of techniques when defeating Aen?”

“Yes, Ilseom and Swordsman. I used a mix of both techniques.”

A feeling of resentment crossed Master’s face. Booung! A stick loaded with magic passed past my shoulder.

“Never again, never mix techniques like that again.”

“Master!”

“It is no exaggeration to say that I created these technologies. He prides himself on knowing the pros and cons of technology more than anyone else. Your body can’t stand it if you use it that way.”

Master is right for me and let’s start.

It seemed to say so. It was a little bit embarrassing.

Thanks to that technique, Master and I are both alive.

“Answer me.”

“I will never mix technologies carelessly again.”

“From the look on your face, you don’t like my decision.”

After all, lies don’t work for Master?

I didn’t even want to imagine what would have happened to Master if I hadn’t used such a mixture of techniques.

“… I couldn’t have won.”

“How dare you talk back?”

“I… , Just to protect Master… .”

widely. Master kicked me down as if skimming the bottom. It didn’t hurt. It’s not like he was trying to hurt you in the first place.

“Who told you to save me like that?”

“… … ”

“All of this seems like disloyalty for failing to properly teach you.”

Master’s sigh flew like a dagger and pierced it. Haven’t you been kicked by Master since morning, don’t you hear such bitter words? At this point, I also had a sneaky savage heart.

“Swear to me. Ethan.”

“What do you mean by oath?”

“Even if you pour out all the basics of swordsmanship in the future, if you encounter an enemy you cannot face, run away. It means to swear in front of this teacher that you will do so. In any case.”

Master’s beautiful eyes were shaking.

Are you worried about your student’s body before your own safety?

However, I was also a stubborn person.

“I don’t like it. Master. Even if I turn back time, I will save Master again.”

Suddenly, I remembered the end of Sylvia that I read about in the original work.

“… Lee, I rather wanted you to live, even if I had to do something bad.”

“Then I will seek Master again, even if my body is damaged and crippled.”

The stick Master held rose high. Fearing that I would fall, I hurriedly took a guard stance.

But in vain the stick returned to its place.

“Teacher is rotting inside. Do as you please.”

I had never seen Master so upset.

“Master, please beat me until I feel better.”

“I won’t do what you want. Repeat the last thing you learned.”

The training with Master that day was over.

Sylvia’s room.

Sylvia was sitting in her chair, very angry.

‘You damn bastard. Who does it look like? If I said that, did you think I would like it?’

His heart for his teacher was admirable, but he felt sick to his stomach because of the disciple who didn’t take care of his body.

Usually, when the master said so, the disciple had to go on to know. But Ethan was stubborn.

He was honest, as if he couldn’t lie.

It was the same when he attacked Aen. It was to the extent that he thought that it might be better for the disciple to leave him behind and run away.

Because he was such a disciple, he felt the demonic energy and felt a greater sense of betrayal. And after knowing all the facts, I regretted it.

After all, it all stemmed from my own misunderstanding. What kind of treatment was this to the disciple who risked his life to protect himself?

Since that day, I haven’t been able to sleep for two days already, so my eyes are watering. 48 hours have passed since I was awake.

‘under… . I’m really sorry about this, I should apologize properly… .’

smart.

Dania went to Sylvia with a bunch of papers.

It was a document that contained a lot of information related to swordsmanship.

‘Ummm… Sylvia-sama, you look really bad today.’

These days, Sylvia’s expression has become richer. There was no way that the quick-witted Dania would not have known that it was because of Edan.

At times like this, it was Dania’s job to ask questions first.

“Silvia-sama, are you worried?”

“I don’t know what to do with the disciple.”

Just as expected.

Sylvia, who was so lucky, confided in Dania about her disciple who didn’t listen to her. However, he did not say a word about Rien either.

He just said that he was sorry for Edan and that he wanted to mend Edan’s mindset.

“Silvia-sama, I think it would be good to use the carrot and stick strategy then?”

“Carrots and sticks… ?”

Dania lowered her voice and expressed her opinion in a whisper. However, Sylvia’s expression was not satisfactory.

“… So what you do with your body.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Dania.”

Then came a light honeycomb. Dania came to her senses at the intensity that did not hurt.

“What’s the difference between that and a prostitute?”

“Hey… . It hurts. Sylvia.”

“Okay, go back.”

Dania bowed her head once and quietly withdrew. Left in the room, Sylvia thought to herself.

‘If that really eases Ethan’s heart… . maybe it’ll be okay… .’
