Chapter 28's
"Again! Your hands again!”
While shouting, Margaret glared at Yurhi, whose face was filled with tears and snot.
“Can't you at least have beautiful nails?! If you bite like that, everything is ugly!”
“Uwaaaaaa!” Yuri crying.
“There's no hope in these fucking Tilrods. They cannot be saved! What happens when there is money? Everything was in spite of the incompetent and foolish hands of the patriarch. All the children I gave birth to were all gone, which gave me nothing but pain in my stomach. And your sister? Take a good look at how the disgusting virgin is trying to survive. And yoursister? When will your sister wake up?”
“Uwaaaaaaah!”
"Shut up! You know nothing but crying, right?”
Margaret shook her little daughter's shoulder like crazy.
“Yurhi Tilrod, all this time you've been torturing me!”
“AHH! Mommy, stop! Please stop!"
As Yurhi screamed in fear, Margaret pushed her away.
Yurhi further fell to the floor as she hit the floor hard.
Crying on the ground in a state of chaos, Yurhi looked extremely pitiful.
Yurhi could not even breathe properly and started wheezing as she cried.
Surprisingly, after seeing her daughter's miserable appearance, Margaret felt relieved.
“Wake up, Yurhi Tilrod!”
“Huk, uhuk, uhuuuk!”
Even as it felt like the entire world was collapsing on him, Yurhi reflexively raised her body.
The boy was filled with fear. If he did not listen to his mother, he would be completely abandoned by his entire world.
Yurhi's fear was not unfounded.
Didn't her mother also abandon her older sister, Radis, to that extent?
“Hiik, huuuk, uwahhh!”
Yurhi kept trying to think that Radis was not abandoned.
However, he still had a premonition, like an animal instinct.
Like, on a rainy, windy day, her mother had bitten her sister's neck and came out of the hive—and she instinctively knew what she had done even if she had not witnessed it firsthand, the silent death of her sister. .
Sucking, suck!
Yurhi sucked her thumb and desperately held on to Margaret.
Sucking, suck!
Yurhi sucked her thumb and desperately held on to Margaret.
Margaret glared at Yurhi with her eyes wide open.
“Why are you acting like a baby? You've been fourteen years!”
But strangely enough, after seeing her daughter's increasingly aging behavior, Margaret felt calm and better.
A terrifying smile appeared on the corner of Margaret's lips, not knowing if it was a smile out of excitement or despair.
It was a dangerous smile, like an old queen reaffirming her dominance through acts of tyranny against those who would accuse her.
Margaret wiped Yurhi's tears and runny nose with the tip of her dress, then she spoke in a stern voice.
“You must be kind to your mother, Yurhi Tilrod. Don't you know how much I sacrificed because of you? Don't you want to return your mother's favor? You have to be a great man and marry well. That's all I want, okay?”
Looking at half of his thoughts, Yurhi continued sucking on his thumb while nodding.
"alright. Go take a shower now. Oh my God, your face is a mess. Oh, my God, where do my senses fly. I have to go find the enemy. It is clear where the enemy will go now.”
Pushing her daughter's heart further into the abyss, Margaret stood with a face greatly relieved and pulled a rope to call the maid.
After asking Irene to take Yurhi and bathe her, she improved her own appearance.
Of course, he'll find Jade.
Maybe Jade was drunk in a regular bar right now, or maybe she was sitting at the table with the cards dealt to her, her shoulders strained after being there for a long time.
If he wasn't in that place, maybe he was in Flora's house, living in that rat-hole-like place all along.
However, Margaret's plan fails due to an unexpected guest.
"I'm Felice Roschilde."
Felice, a man from the Roschilde knight family whom Radis met at a banquet.
Although she was a guest who came unannounced, Margaret knew what she had to do because it was Roschilde.
There was no other choice but to invite Felice in because she came from a prestigious family, so her trip outside was postponed.
Before a waiter could even bring tea for them to drink, Felice went straight to business.
"Mrs Tilrod, did you hear about me from Miss Radis?"
She had no idea what she was talking about, but the moment she heard Radis' name spoken, Margaret felt that something unpleasant was about to happen.
Try to lift the corners of her lips as much as possible to make a smile, replied Margaret.
“Umm, she's not home right now. The boy really cannot be stopped. I didn't even hear from him about you, Sir Roschilde. Did he do something wrong?”
“I'm sorry for the irreverence. I was really impressed with the young lady. As the eldest daughter of the family, Madam Radis seems to have deep thoughts about the future of her household. He asked me for a position in the Roschilde family's conquering army.
Of course, he was under a misunderstanding.
What Radis asked Felice was a position for himself, not David.
However, Radis' explanation was not enough because of his unease, and Felice had a clear prejudice that a young woman would not ask for a position in a conqueror's squad for herself.
So Felice suspected Radis was making a request on behalf of her brother, not for herself.
“Recently, the academy has been considered as the gateway to becoming a knight, but it wasn't like that when I was young. I believe that it is an experience and not an academy that cultivates true knights. ”
“Experience you said, Mr. ..”
“Traditional ways. Get out of the hive—family—and start from the bottom as a bodyguard in the order of other family knights! There is no other way than that to become a great knight.”
Hearing the word 'great knight', Margaret widened her eyes as if a thread of gold was beginning to dangle from heaven.
Seeing Margaret's expression, Felice continued to speak with a delighted expression.
“Actually we have not opened a recruitment. However, even though she is a stranger I have never met before, I cannot turn a blind eye to Miss Radis' sincerity. He took a lot of courage to ask me for this favor.”
“Yeah, geez!”
Margaret's mind went into a frenzy.
Objectively, David's current skills would only make him enter the third grade academy, but even so, he would have to spend a lot of money just to enter it.
His admission would be made possible with the money Marquis Russell gave him, but unlike the Imperial Academy, the third-rate academy was a place where David might struggle to even obtain an apprentice position after graduation.
Wouldn't it be better to trust and follow the words of Felice Roschilde?
Margaret cheered inwardly.
'Radis, that virgin! He must have asked Marquis Russell for help like this! Even if he pretended to be strong, he couldn't turn a blind eye to his family. But ck, I'm sure it would be better if it was with the order of the Marquis knight...!'
Margaret smiled and nodded excitedly.
But there's something Margaret doesn't know.
When the conquering squads were more famous, it meant that there was more time they went hunting demon monsters, and the members of the squads would only be treated well if they worked hard enough. And, the lower their ranking, the harder the job—they have to roll around and literally spill blood.
Not many thought to see why the noble families refused to send their children through traditional means starting from below. That was why they would go to the academy instead even though a lot of money was needed.
However, Margaret was fully convinced by Felice.
The blind faith that a parent has for his or her child sometimes leads to total blindness.
Margaret gladly accepts the contract without asking David's approval, hoping her son will change.
Looking at the contract, Margaret asked carefully.
"Is ... Is there no salary?"
Hearing Margaret's words, Felice's face turned red as if she had been insulted.
“As the Madam knows, resources and money are spent on new recruits in the conquering squads only to educate them until they can carry their own burdens.”
"God! So!"
“In fact, there is a reason why I personally have not been sick lately. It was because I was energized by raising a young man as a great knight, and the cost of this labor could not be ignored. ”
“Yeah, geez!”
With Felice's good speaking skills, Margaret began to feel that this was a better opportunity than getting David into the Imperial Academy.
He hastily signed the contract out of fear Felice took it back. He didn't even read the contents.
After he finished signing it, Felice smiled sweetly and picked up the papers.
At the same time, he did not forget to add this.
“As I said before, recruitment is not officially opened, but I am trying to come here.”
“Ohoho! We will not forget this gift, Sir Roschilde!”
"Ha ha ha! After seeing Miss Radis doing this for her younger brother, I can remember how much my own sister suffered because of me, so I can't help it.”
Felice spoke while reminiscing.
“I've been a good knight now, but I often got lost when I was young. My sister suffered a lot because our mother died early.”
"Geez, what an amazing sister."
Hearing this statement, Margaret felt sorry for David, whose own sister was nothing like that.
"Sir sister Master is amazing, is she okay now?"
Felice laughed happily at Margaret's question.
“Hahaha, I believe so!”
Compared to him who said how grateful he was to his sister before, his answer now felt indifferent.
But when Felice saw Margaret's curiosity in his expression, Felice added.
“He already has his own family. Her husband was a stranger, so there was nothing strange if she did not hear from him after he got married. No news is good news, right?”
Margaret nodded, though her expression was bitter.
“O... hoho.. I-That's true..”.
And so, their conversation ended.
After a while, David Tilrod, the eldest son of the Tilrod family, learns that he is now the bodyguard of the Roschilde household conquering squad, the shield that protects the empire from demonic monsters.
It was only natural that, even though he had been told that the contract had been signed, David shouted with all his might.
