Chapter 339

#339. what are you doing here

I guess I’m lucky

When Limon refused, the slaves did not recommend such outrageous clothing any more.

I was very sorry.

So Limon suffered even more headaches.

It was obvious that the reason the slaves were making this fuss was because they thought that Hasneti truly loved Limon.

Well, seeing that the warehouse was bursting with gifts, it was understandable to make such an illusion.

The problem was why Hasneti was doing this.

‘What’s the purpose?’

‘If you throw it only in the palace and see that he doesn’t even poke his nose, it’s probably not because he really likes it.’

‘Could it be that I’m suspicious and want to tie my feet naturally?’

It is basic that slaves are always following them around, and because of the spread of rumors about a huge gift offensive, attention is drawn to them wherever they go.

In the midst of this, if you hastily wandered around looking for a seven-color bird, you might be suspicious.

If Hasneti’s purpose was to keep an eye on Limon, it would be very successful.

‘Strangely for something like that, there doesn’t seem to be any monitoring…’

Is this a trap?

Or does it have some other purpose?

Limon had no choice but to worry.

However, it is impossible to go back after deliberately coming here and wasting time.

‘It can’t be helped.’

In the end, Limon came to a conclusion after much thought.

And the first thing he did was meet someone.

* * *

“You found me?”

“Yeah, I don’t think I’ve been able to say hello since I saw you on the first day.”

“Um, sorry about that. I should have visited and said hello earlier, but I’m busy these days, so I’m late.”

A girl in a baggy military uniform.

Nadia scratched her head.

This before and after processing has kept her really busy.

It was enough to ignore the call from the secret room.

Nonetheless, it was out of curiosity that Nadia dared to respond to Limon’s call.

Hasneti, who did not even pay attention to men, welcomed her as a concubine because, of course, she wanted to have a proper talk with the opponent who stopped the war.

Of course, the biggest reason was the huge gift offensive that is happening these days.

‘How much money is that all about…’

An elaborately crafted gold necklace.

A gold bracelet studded with various gems.

In addition, a high-quality rowincloth and a gold belt were deliberately made to order.

I don’t wear much, though.

Nadia, as the Red Dragon Clan’s financial manager, felt a little bitter at the sight of Limon, who decorated everything in pure gold.

click.

“I heard you like sweet things, so I prepared refreshments there.”

“Because I had a lot of brain work…”

Nadia admired.

It might seem arrogant if you don’t even raise your hand and serve refreshments by only slaves.

It was because Limon felt a sense of dignity when he did it.

He looked like a pure-blooded aristocrat who had only worked as a slave for decades.

‘Certainly, a nobleman is a nobleman…’

Besides, he naturally digested those expensive accessories, and the golden color made his soft brown skin stand out more.

Even Nadia thought for a moment, ‘It’s not a waste of money.’

Of course, after that, he erased it, freaking out at the crazy idea he had thought of.

‘…Or maybe it’s just an innate sense of affection.’

Why did Hasneti take such a boy as his concubine? It was a while to feel the part of that demonic (?) and shudder.

Suddenly coming to her senses, Nadia cleared her throat and opened her mouth.

“Hmm hmm. Are you feeling uncomfortable about anything?”

“there is.”

“If there is… is there?”

I thought the answer would be that I was very satisfied, as I was treating him the best as Hasneti instructed.

Nadia, who had a bewildered expression at the positivity that came out without a moment’s hesitation, turned a sharp gaze at the slaves.

If he felt uncomfortable, it was the slaves’ responsibility.

It was the right thing to be whipped right away and demoted to a slave soldier.

When the slaves who knew that fact were completely blue.

Limon said casually.

“Because of the Pharaoh.”

“yes?”

“It’s only for a just cause, but it became a concubine for now, but you haven’t seen your face since you came here, right?”

“Ah… you mean you feel uncomfortable.”

“That’s how it is.”

Whether or not the slaves are relieved by the gaze that was withdrawn only then.

Nadia said shyly.

“That’s because the princess is busy right now. It’s not because you’re indifferent to Rimor.”

“I know. If you’re really indifferent, you wouldn’t give me presents like this every day.”

“Yes,

I am.”

Watching Limon show off his gold bracelet, Nadia murmured inwardly.

As much as he is doing all the work himself, he only sends gifts and listens to reports from the slaves even though he has plenty of time.

Just because he didn’t come to see him in person, Hasneti’s interest in Limon didn’t seem that great.

“So I’d like to give Pharaoh some presents too.”

“If it’s a gift, don’t you send me a piece every day?”

“That’s a tribute. Gifts are different.”

“Is it something else…?”

“Getting money on your birthday is just as different as getting a present you like.”

“I like the money.”

“….”

As if there could be a better gift than money.

Limon, who was silent as he watched the blinking Nadia, slightly raised and lowered his gaze.

And he continued to speak shamelessly as if he hadn’t heard anything.

“Anyway, in that sense, I want to ask you, is it true that Pharaoh likes birds?”

“How did you know that?”

“I happened to hear the summoning lord say that.”

“Is that horny fly?”

“…The evaluation of the summoning lord is pretty amazing.”

“Oh sorry. The princess has a habit of talking.”

Nadia was embarrassed.

This is because Hasneti regarded the summoning lord, who had been persistently beating him, as nothing more than a fly.

That’s why it was all the more strange that she willingly welcomed such a boy as her concubine.

“Anyway, with that in mind, I’d like to carve a bird for the Pharaoh?”

“That sounds like a good idea.”

“But if I don’t have a model, I’m not good at sculpting.”

“yes? I think I heard that the first birdie piece you gave to the princess was done without a model.”

“…meaning that if you have a model, you can make a better piece. Isn’t it better to make the best possible gift for this gift?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“In that sense, it would be nice to have some birds to model for. Are there any places in the palace where birds are kept or where I can observe them?”

“That’s…”

Nadia rolled her eyes.

As much as Hasneti loved birds, there was an area on one side of the palace dedicated to birds.

The problem was that it was a place where outsiders were absolutely prohibited from entering as much as Hasneti frequented it

…

“Since Limor says so, I will guide you to a good place.”

“thank you.”

“This is also for the princess.”

Hasneti is still looking forward to Limon’s sculpture.

Nadia asked with a shy smile, saying it was only natural for her to help as an aide.

“So when are you okay? Please tell me next time I can afford…”

“Right now.”

“…yes?”

“I have a lot of free time these days.”

“….”

* * *

In the end, Nadia had to guide Limon without even touching the refreshment.

I was already overdue for work, but I couldn’t bear to say that I didn’t have time because it was for the princess.

Thanks to that, Limon was impressed when he saw ‘The Birdcage’.

“A bird cage that takes up an entire garden is amazing.”

“Because the princess doesn’t want the birds to be cramped. It is a place where the birds can live as freely as possible.”

Of course flowers and trees.

To the cliffs with waterfalls and springs.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a vast garden that contains almost a whole small mountain.

Nadia, who was proudly speaking while guiding the huge cage that completely covered the large space, soon her shoulders drooped.

“Instead, it costs a lot to maintain.”

“Originally, freedom requires a price.”

One more time to pat Nadia on the shoulder.

Limon said with a refreshing smile.

“Then, please guide me. If possible, focus on places with rare birds.”

“…Yes, it should.”

Looking at Limon, who comforted her but also ordered her to do something, Nadia thought to herself.

Unexpectedly, this boy might be a good match for our princess.

In a strangely relentless way.

Anyway, as work is work, Nadia diligently guided Limon.

“If you’re looking for a bird to model for, how about that ice-snow bird in the cave under the cliff? They have pretty snow-like feathers.”

“They die at the slightest temperature. I think a stronger bird would be better.”

“In terms of being strong, the cassowary over there is strong. It is a rare bird of prey with a legend that lived on a continent that disappeared long ago.”

“They’re too ugly to model for.”

“Then what about the solemn eagle? There are several of each type at the top of that cliff.”

“Eagle isn’t bad, but it’s a bit common.”

“…Then which bird do you like?”

“well. A bird with tenacious vitality, coolness, and splendor, so it’s nice to see it, but at least it’s a rare bird?”

“…”

Nadia thought again.

Not only is she merciless, but she also seems to be a good match for the princess in that she is secretly picky and capricious.

Instead, the practitioner himself would die of hunger.

But what can I do?

I was the one who gave myself the guidance.

Eventually, Nadia sighed and turned around.

“I can’t help it if that’s the case… I’ll show you my trump card.”

“A bird in the spleen?”

“yes. I didn’t want to show it to you because it’s so wild and uneducated, but it’s a pretty rare and cute bird.”

“Hmm, is that interesting?”

It’s like he’s been waiting for that word.

Nadia led Limon with a grin to a small hut in the corner of the garden.

And the moment Nadia, who took out a small cage from the cabin, took off the cloth covering the cage.

Limon was silent.

“How are you?”

beep?

It seems like I am confident this time.

To Nadia’s elated question, Limon had no answer.

Beep beep! Beep beep beep!

A small bird that opens its eyes as soon as the cloth is removed, then jumps wildly when it sees itself.

Looking at the blue bird, which was so unfamiliar and even boring to see the white feather sticking out from the middle of its head, Limon muttered as if moaning.

“Blue, what are you doing here…?”

* * *

In the end, Limon chose a bluebird that shed its fluff as a model.

Finding the seven-colored bird was important, but more than that, I had to find out why Na-kyung Yun was here.

And after half forcing Nadia back that no guide is needed now.

The approximate circumstances he heard from Yuna-kyung left Limon at a loss.

“In short, a shipping accident?”

Beep!

Originally, it should have been sent to the Kilimanjaro Autonomous Government via the Leviathan branch in Egypt.

Maybe it was because the shipping address was changed in a hurry later, but it seems that it should have been sent as a gift to Limon, but it was presented to Hasneti.

Looking at Yuna-gyeong, who explained hard by tapping on her smartphone, Limon made a mysterious expression.

‘How come it doesn’t seem like an accident?’

I don’t know if anyone else

Li Qingyu made such a mistake.

Limon, who was tilting his head at the feeling that something was going on, asked with a puzzled face.

“Nakyung, have you ever had a grudge against our princess?”

…beep?

A moment to even flinch.

Yuna-kyung rolled her eyes and shook her head.

It wasn’t that there weren’t any slight snags, but that was already a thing of the past, and it was because the missiles had scorched their feathers and paid off.

“Hmm, then it’s fortunate… just in case, be careful.”

beep?

“It’s not as thorough as the green dragon clan, but instead, the black dragon clan has the longest end.”

….

If you incur even a small grudge against Li Qingyu, you will likely get involved in many accidents, even if you don’t openly get revenge.

Seeing Limon scratching his cheek and giving him advice, Yuna-gyeong caused an earthquake in her pupils.

“Anyway, it just happened to be good.”

I don’t know if I know how Yuna-kyung feels.

Limon grinned.

It was difficult to attract attention, but with Yuna-kyung, the search became much easier.

‘Why did the princess laugh meaningfully when I said that sending additional members of the clan was not allowed…’ Youn/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

can’t call Yuna-kyung a member of the Black Dragon clan.

Laughing at Li Ching-yu’s ability to skillfully use that loophole to send additional help, not additional manpower, Limon spoke to Yuna-kyung.

no i was trying to

‘Huh? This sign…?’

widely!

Unless someone suddenly grabbed him with a strong hand.

Limon had to look surprised even though he had already sensed the touch with the sword master’s superhuman senses.

It wasn’t just camouflage.

Perhaps it was because the actions of the opponent who grabbed her were so unexpected.

“Who is it?”

Sharply raised eyebrows.

Eyes burning with blood.

Even the clear footprints left behind.

The culprit, who even used the chile-ton primates, ran like lightning and grabbed Limon’s slender wrist.

Hasneti shouted with a voice filled with anger as hot as fire, her face distorted like a demon, which had always been cold until now.

“I asked who allowed you to come in here!”
