Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3)

However, this incident was nothing more than an ordinary matter that had no relation to his beliefs.

Pedro, bishop of Soara.

A bishop directly sent to the North by the Vatican and a person who has fought against evil, heresy, and wrongdoers all his life.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Bring it here.”

“Bishop. beacon A letter has arrived.”

To seek justification, he even granted indulgence to the street thugs, but in the end, it only ended in a miserable failure.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Perhaps I should resign from my position as bishop because of this incident.

The mirror of San Marello, which was a source of pride, shattered, and now he finds himself under great pressure from San Logino and the Mayor of Soara.

The northerners have long been considered a thorn in the side of the Vatican.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

If you want to achieve a greater cause, sometimes you have to know when to retreat.

“…But that’s okay.”

Still, it worked.

Because in the end, this letter ended up in my hands.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

There was a time when I believed I could do that.

“A knight with dragon’s blood could end Ramashthu’s life.”

I always wanted to walk the right path.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“It was incredibly rewarding.”

However, Pedro had long realized that the world cannot always walk a straight path.

The path to God’s will is not always bright.

A letter brought by a priest.

“How is it? All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com crystal Have you thought about it?”

Vlad passed by the town hall and visited Goethe, who was working in the stables.

***

At the bottom of the small piece of paper was the seal of the Dragulia family.With them, we can once again show the foolish northerners the bright light of the Holy See.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Goethe was speechless at his suggestion, but he didn’t seem particularly offended.

“I’m not sure being expelled from Soara is a big deal.”

In any case, he was in a situation where he was being expelled, and from Goethe’s perspective, that meant giving up his stable job.

“You’ve done it before. matrix Let’s do something big together.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“….”

“I’ve said what I wanted to. legend Of course, the decision is yours.”

It was a situation that anyone could understand.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Because everything he could do, Vlad could also do.

Goethe was clearly a useful person.

However, being useful is not the same as being necessary.

Unlike Vlad, who had been confined to Soara for most of his life, Goethe had a wide range of knowledge as he had wandered from place to place, and he was also a versatile person who could perform a variety of jobs.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

I know he tried to take advantage of himself as an opportunity to rise to a higher place.

“…”

“I’m planning to leave early tomorrow morning. sphere If you change your mind, I’ll see you at the gate.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

However, even though it started as a superficial scheme, he was the one who stood by me until the end in times of crisis, so I approached him with all my heart.

“Are you leaving already?”

Even if Goethe rejects the offer, it will be his last courtesy.

“I’ve taken care of all my business here.”

Even if Goethe doesn’t come and I end up alone, it won’t matter.

Because now I have the qualifications to stand alone no matter where I am.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

***

At the end, I couldn’t meet with Joseph.

The back of Vlad, who turned without hesitation, said that.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

I wanted to bid a final farewell before leaving, but as an outcast no better than a criminal, that wasn’t allowed.

“I spoke with the Kannor family. arcade Harven will bring the fish from Sturma on his boat when the river thaws.”

Distinction between public and private like a sword.

Joseph even declined his greetings to avoid giving an inch of justification until the end, but the reason he still wasn’t offended was probably because he learned a lot from him.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“If possible, we should prepare for the next task.”

Always think ahead.

“Have you already found a business partner?”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Mmm.”

Now that he had to be alone, Vlad decided to take seriously the advice he had learned from Joseph and Jager.

Always prepare for the worst.

“Otar. alien He’ll assist Harven’s business. action Having him by his side will help.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

He gave Harven, who had a boat, a connection with the Kannor family, and placed Otar by his side in case of an unexpected situation.

“But what about you? Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. shadow If you’re going to be out, you’ll need money, right?”

“I won’t need that much. arena Sometimes I’ve lived without money.”

It may be just the two of us may not be enough, but since it’s still a small business and there will be people available to help, I think it will be possible.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

In the past, when there were five bosses, when a season like this came around where it was hard to make a living, each boss would collect food to eat in the alleys.

Vlad quietly pulled out ten shiny gold coins from his pocket, which now only had 18 gold coins left, and handed them to Harven.

“With this, we could help some of the kids out there. airport Bosses usually do something like this around this time.”

“Ah, I understand…”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Well. alert You’re right.”

It may have been nothing more than a formality to garner public support and solidify the base, but indeed, there were people who survived thanks to the food they provided.

“Now that there are only two bosses, the kids outside are starving.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

However, as remote as it may be, it would be prudent to at least take care of the children.

Moreover, these days, the eyes of the children looking at him remained trampled.

The belief that if you’re weak you’ll be trampled and that you must fight to survive remains the same.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

I decided to do it because I could and was in a position where I needed to.

I decided to voluntarily give about 10 gold coins for the children who looked at the knight who was born and raised in the alley.

“I know.”

“…The kids keep looking at me.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

If that’s the case, at least no child will starve this winter.

Now that he had taken care of all the alley children, he had almost finished everything he had to do.

“I think it’s all done now…”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Vlad’s eyes were focused on a room on the fourth floor.

“But not until the end.”

It was Zemina’s room, whom he had dragged right next door, saying he would block out the conversation with his voice.

There was a time when I stood in the mud of the road and looked at the old blacksmith’s sword.

“I’ll buy it for you later when I receive payment.”

***

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

As I stared at the shiny sword, there was a red-haired girl who was always by my side.

“Do you think your body is worth 5 gold coins?”

Faced with the cruel choice of being a damned beggar or a prostitute selling her body, Zemina smiled and said she would buy him a sword.

“You said it only costs 5 gold coins, right?”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

For those who lived in the alleys, even protecting someone was a luxury. auction However, Zemina handed over a sword.

Amid jokes and teasing, the boy and the girl laughed, but in reality, no one was laughing.

“Even if you buy it for me, it’s damn foolishness.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Where are we going?”

The abundant red hair shown in exchange for the sword was like the last weapon for Zemina, who had nothing.

The sword she bought with the tears of the girl that day made him a knight.

Perhaps all the achievements with the sword up to now were thanks to Zemina. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Vlad went out, carrying Zemina, who was locked in the room, over his shoulder, and quickly ran through the alley.

“Let’s run a little.”

“…Aren’t you going to answer?”

“It’s later than I thought.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Zemina buried her face behind Vlad’s back, probably because she was embarrassed by her swollen eyes.

He could feel Vlad’s breath through the cold winter wind.

“So, do your best.”

“…Do as you wish.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“What?”

I thought I would finally stay, but for no reason I did something stupid and created this division.

Zemina felt neither sadness nor anger at the proximity of another separation, but only heavy emotions.

They used to run away, but now they have been expelled.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“…Where are we?”

“Here. attic Is this the place?”

He couldn’t even put on his shoes because he was suddenly dragged out.

The place Vlad took him to for a long time was not the alley he usually saw, but the central square in the center of Soara.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

If I had known they would kick me out like this, I should have asked in advance.

If they were in an alley, it’s time to turn on the lights, but if you’re an ordinary person, it’s time to close your business and go home.

Still, Vlad only had time today, so it was inevitable.

“Is the door closed?”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Open the door!”

Boom! beacon Boom!

“Hey! meadow Are you crazy? galaxy What are you doing!”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“The guards are watching!”

The guards patrolling approached Vlad, who was banging on the door.

“Owner! action I told you to open the door!”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

I could have confidence even in front of the guards, whom I always feared.

The alley girl, who always had no choice but to cower in fear in front of the guards, felt embarrassed and grabbed Vlad by the nape of the neck and shook him, but in reality, there was nothing more to be done.

“…Ah.”

“What does it matter? portal I’m a knight.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Who is it at this hour?”

Now, Vlad has become someone who can at least protect Zemina, who is standing behind him.

“I booked something, didn’t I? galaxy Are you finished?”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

The shop is open again, even though business hours have passed.

“…Please come in, Mr. canvas Vlad.”

No one could treat Zemina carelessly when she was with Vlad.

It wasn’t just fear, but Vlad’s authority and honor that made it so.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Wonderful fabrics that made me feel like I was stepping on cold ground even though I was barefoot.

Zemina couldn’t keep her mouth shut in the brightly lit shop, just like the sudden change in attitude of the owner.

Looking at the countless clothes surrounding her.

“Wow.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“It was finished, but you arrived late, so I was planning to give it to you tomorrow.”

“But why did you come here?”

This was the most famous tailor in Soara.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Instead of answering Zemina’s question, Vlad simply waved his hand.

“I’m sorry for being late. palette Let’s put it on now.”

“For me?”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Give it a try.”

“Who else here would wear this little dress but you?”

Zemina’s eyes naturally turned to where Vlad’s hand was pointing.

A dress swaying in the hands of the tailor.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

***

I opened the door of the jewelry shop and received a necklace and earrings. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

The bright red color, luxuriously dyed, suited Zemina’s hair well.

I passed by the tanner’s house and received a pair of bright red shoes.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“When I saw it at that moment, it looked good.”

I brought the cosmetics I had ordered and an elegant fan from the jewelry shop.

“…”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“How crazy.”

As dusk loomed over Soara’s square, the place grew darker, but Zemina’s outfit shone even brighter than before.

“I made it just the right size because it looks like you won’t grow anymore.”

Vlad was taking the items I had reserved one by one and putting them on Zemina.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Now wear your own clothes instead of borrowing from Marcella.”

That time when Zemina came with a bright red dress to bring the black horse.

At that moment, she wasn’t a street girl saying she would sell her body, but a lady anyone could recognize.

Vlad reminded her.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Since I borrowed something from someone else, there’s no discomfort anymore. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.

“…How much does all this cost?”

The dresses and accessories made exclusively for the girl made Zemina shine even more than I had seen that day.

“How could it be 5 gold coins?”

“Probably around 5 gold coins.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Alright. ability It’s pretty.”

Vlad put both hands on his hips and looked proud.

I’m not sure because I’ve never bought it, but a dress made of bright red velvet would easily cost more than 5 gold.

Zemina grabbed the hem of her skirt and smiled as if it were ridiculous.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Still, I was glad to have been able to use Soara’s last night entirely for Zemina.

A week was a very busy time for arranging things I had decided to do up to now.

“I wish I had done my hair, but I was too busy.”

It was hard to believe she was a woman who had been crying in her room a moment ago.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“What’s this?”

Vlad nodded as if he were finished and handed Zemina a piece of cloth.

“Here.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

A rough handkerchief that doesn’t match the bright dresses and jewelry the woman is wearing.

“This is the handkerchief I made.”

It was a handkerchief that Zemina had personally made for Vlad, with someone’s name clearly engraved on it.

“I didn’t know, but they said nobles do this.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“…What are you doing?”

Vlad knelt when he saw Zemina looking at the handkerchief he had made.

The aristocratic manners he severely learned from Oksana.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“Could you please give me your handkerchief? arrow Lady.”

Zemina was bewildered by Vlad’s sudden actions, but there was an elegance that couldn’t be expressed in words in each of his appearances.

Although she wasn’t born with noble blood, the girl was something Vlad had to protect and repay.

And a woman whom a knight must protect naturally deserves the title of Lady.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Zemina calmly handed him a handkerchief with her name engraved on it.

And Zemina was a qualified woman.

“You can give it to me now.”

“Eh? apron Yes.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“…”

When Vlad asked for a handkerchief, I felt a seriousness that I couldn’t dare to refuse.

There are two ways for a knight to receive a handkerchief from a lady.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

“…Why are you looking at me like that?”

One way is to receive it with the tip of the sword.

The other way is to receive it hand to hand.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

Although it looked different from Alicia’s soft hands, it was still a hand that he couldn’t help but feel affection for.

Vlad looked at the dirty back of Zemina’s hand that he held.

“Make sure to apply what I bought you on your hands.”

“If I wash the dishes anyway, it’ll come off.”

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

In an empty square with no one around.

While Zemina laughed as if it were absurd, Vlad also started to laugh with her.

Now we don’t have to hide our feelings with laughter anymore.

Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 101: When the snow melts (3) by Indra Translations.

It was a vow to protect her.

A knight knelt before the Lady.

Their handkerchief passed from hand to hand, and although Zemina didn’t know it, Vlad made a silent oath as he willingly assumed responsibility.
