Chapter 135 - Volume 2
TL: One more chapter coming in about two to three hours later. This chapter is kind of complicated and I’m not sure if it’s easy enough to understand. Just ask which part you don’t understand and I’ll see what can be done.
Chapter 80 – The story of fishes swimming in chaos (2)
Amandina watched Redi’s back as he limped away, while Yula was beside helping him walk.
“Are you letting them just leave, my lord?” She asked.
“What do you expect me to do here? Instead of letting them pile onto our problems, it’s better to dismiss them.” Brendel answered simply.
“But I still feel like you’re scheming something.” She glanced at him with slight suspicion.
Brendel rubbed his nose with a dry smile: “Is my character that awful in your eyes? I thought that I did things openly in the past.”
“Yes, it would appear so. But I have never thought that my lord has ever done things that appear to be as simple as they look. I recall that you arranged miss Freya to enter the Royal Cavalry Academy, which could be seen like a friend’s encouragement, but I would think that it is because you noticed the fights between the Royal Faction and the Regional Nobles.
He pointed towards Brendel’s injured hand.
“Do you see our lord’s wounded hand? I’m willing to bet that he took less than a minute to deal with that high ranking contract demon, and he probably did it with less than ten moves. Only a veteran can see through the Lord of Throns attacking style and approach this monster quickly. Even though it has a wide range, it is far less threatening to fight in close combat.”
Amandina listened to his explanation and understood about half of it. It was evident that the veteran soldier was immensely respectful of Brendel. As she looked at Brendel’s injuries on his back and hand, she suddenly realized something.
The current generation of Aouine nobles were ‘soft’, and unlike their ancestors.
[Brave, wise, decisive and tough. A lord like this makes me wonder how far his accomplishments will go.]
Amandina exhaled quietly.
