Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3)
As he collapsed slowly, only a lamentable trail of black blood remained behind him.
A middle-aged knight, helplessly leaning against a wall, coughing up blood.
“Ugh.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
The man heard the sound of someone walking towards him.
Jab-jab-jab
The sweat dripping down his face weighed down the corners of his eyes, but the knight tried to stay awake.
It was all over, but he was the one forced to witness the end.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Blurry vision, buzzing in his ears, and distant shouts.
“Have you been here?”
Mixed with these things was the sound of approaching footsteps, silent yet unsettling.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“…You made it here, after all.”
The knight whose duty was to protect it looked at the man who had traversed the hallway.
Now, a mansion dyed red with blood.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It can only be death.
“My lord’s honor comes first… Cough, when you say your honor is second, I don’t think you mean you just follow orders.”
What one sees in the last moments of their life is only…
“My lord’s honor is second…”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
The man standing silently beside it only listened to the last words of the slowly collapsing knight.
“That’s why they all died…”
“The knights of Count Gaidar were not like this.”
The blue glow of moonlight entered through the hallway window.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It was a beautiful light, out of place here.
“That light, too, will eventually die.”
A sword, shining in the moonlight, entered my increasingly faint vision.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“…..”
The backlight of the moonlight made it impossible to see his expression, but you could almost tell.
“…Godin. autumn Deliver this to Count Gaidar.”
With those words, the moonlit blue knight raised his sword high.

Fuuk-.
Winners above, losers below.
“I’ll be waiting for you in hell.”
All according to the decision of the victor.

A mansion somewhere that had been filled with screams moments before.
Red blood dripped down the white hallway.
Now, it was silent, bathed in the blue light of the moon.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
A boy rested his face on the carriage window sill, looking outside with a disgruntled expression.

Everywhere the moonlight shone, the screams were painted red.

“You said we were almost there a while ago.”
“We’re almost there.”
“When will we arrive?”

He knew his home was in Sturma, and he would reach it in half a day, no matter how long it took.

“….”
Vlad was annoyed.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
This was a punishment for Vlad, who was already tired of traveling by carriage.
“At this time of year, our whole family goes to the summer house. crystal The meadow grass is sprouting.”
But instead of half a day, Vlad had to leave Sturma and travel for one more day.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Portly’s family had now moved to a villa outside the city, not within Sturma.
“I’m sorry….”
“If we were going to the countryside, you should have told me from the beginning.”
But what’s done is done, so what can you do?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
There, they would enjoy it much more, explained Portly, but Vlad was only annoyed that two days of his precious vacation had been spent traveling.
“I hope you like the scenery; I wanted to show you this.”
“Oh…”
But that feeling didn’t last long.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Indeed, Portly was right, and after just one hill, Vlad’s eyes were filled with a completely different sight.
Even Vlad, who had his face glued to the window sill, was stunned by the coolness of the scene.
“If…”
Meadows as far as the eye could see.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It was the transition from spring to summer.
Everything was green, and the grass poked its head in response to the warmer weather. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
Vlad couldn’t help but marvel at the scene before him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Really?”
With few trees, the meadows stretched to the horizon, and Vlad felt like he was in the middle of an ocean of a green field.
“The meadows here extend to the front of Varna. legend Normally, monsters appear from time to time, but this winter is cool after Lord Joseph’s monster slaughter, so we shouldn’t have to worry about that.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Oh. abstract That.”
Every action has an intention.
“Yes. canvas You know, what you said you did.”
I realize that my first encounter with Joseph that winter day last year was to make sure the meadow would be safe to use.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“I want to shout.”
“So I have something to do with the landscape.”
Vlad felt a vague pride, as if he had participated in creating this lush meadow.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Feeling like he knew what it must be for the horses frolicking in the distance, Vlad stuck his face out of the carriage and opened his mouth wide to breathe in the rushing air.
“Aaaahhhhhhh-!”
“I understand. timber I want to do that sometimes too.”
A world of intense green that makes me want to slam the door and run out.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
After a lifetime of darkness and confinement, all Vlad wanted was to unleash himself with a constant flood of fresh emotions.
The boy’s scream echoed strongly in the middle of the meadow.

“…Yes. antique I understand.”

“He’s my family’s butler.”
In front of it, someone greets a carriage.
As a buoy in a green sea, the country house announces its presence with various colors.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
I thought he was a relative because he greeted me so amicably, but he’s a butler.
“Do you have such a big house that you need a butler?”
“Oh. legend A butler.”

“…Really?”
“We have a total of two butlers in the family.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
I befriended Portly with that in mind, but the wealth of the Kannor House was beyond the imagination of a street-raised child.
The Kannor House may not be a noble family, but it holds its share of influence in Sturma.
“Long time no see, Butler!”
“It has indeed been a while, Young Master.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
And right now, Portly was a perfect example.
Puppies, regardless of their size, were always eager to be embraced by their masters.
Somehow, the old butler’s legs trembled as he held the chubby puppy.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
But no one else besides the butler had come out to greet the guest, even though Vlad, who had been eagerly awaiting their arrival, was right in front of him.
“Well…”
“And my father?”
Portly, the younger son of Kannor, was apparently very dear to the house, judging by the way he spoke with the butler.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
You have an unexpected guest.
“My lord is busy receiving our unexpected guests… So why don’t you take a look at our family home first.”
Expressing his embarrassment with a bitter smile, the butler asked Vlad to forgive him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Whatever.”
“Thank you for your consideration.”
Seeing the butler’s puzzled expression, Vlad responded with indifference.
It was almost rude to ask him to wait, as another guest had arrived, but Vlad didn’t mind.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
‘…I didn’t mean that.’
Seeing Vlad, the wrinkles on the old butler’s face widened.
[Well done, a generous heart will return a favor someday.]
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Vlad replied quietly as he heard the voice.
Even now, though he had faded into the background, it would be a dream compared to what it had been. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
When had they treated him well?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“I’d rather see the horses first. abstract I have high hopes.”
So the boy decided to be as bold as possible in everything he did.
And if you expect to be treated well for what you did in Deirmar, you’re going to be slow-witted and stiff in whatever you do.
“Of course, the lord himself will introduce you to the really expensive ones, but it wouldn’t hurt to have a preview of the rest.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.

Make concessions but never lose; that had been the boy’s life until then.
Instead, I’ll have to find and eat the ones that allow me.

¡Thump, thump, thump!
Cows, horses, and sheep. anxiety And dogs.

“…This can’t be serious.”
All the animals in the meadow had seen Vlad, and they were scared, fleeing.
Portly and Vlad had seen it coming, but the old butler, who had never seen anything like it, was beyond belief.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Yes, my identity is endorsed by Father Andreas.”
“Have you ever been to… church?”
“Oh, my apologies.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
The deacon, who had asked if you were cursed or something, could only bow his head at the name that came out of Vlad’s mouth.
As the butler of the Kannor family, whose lineage had been dedicated to farming and livestock for generations, he was an expert with animals.
But he swore he had never seen horses and sheep flee from someone like they were doing now. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

Whether the old butler next to him seemed surprised or not, Vlad could only stare blankly at the empty enclosure.
I can’t even ride a cow.
Vlad felt dejected.
Goethe had jokingly suggested that maybe he should try riding a cow, but even that seemed impossible now.

“….”
“Go see all the ones on our ranch; there might be one for you.”
I’ll show you all the guys here.
Portly, watching the scene, felt sorry for him and reassured Vlad.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Of course!”
“But I’m sure there’s at least one that will follow me, right?”
I’ll show you each one of them, fighting, riding, working, killing, whatever.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Still, there were a couple of people tracking the ranch, just in case, but they were too busy trying to avoid Vlad.
But promises don’t always come true.
Meanwhile, the beloved butler had a hard time.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It felt as if the handful of hope he had left was being crushed.
Vlad had been prepared for this to happen, but now that it was happening in front of him, he was going crazy.
“Still, I never thought it would be this bad…”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It doesn’t matter if he can use aura.
“I’ll be walking, eating dirt, while everyone else is going on cool rides and stuff…”
“I still have some good horses that my father brought me…”
He can’t even ride a horse.

The day’s sun, sinking on the horizon, only dyed the slumped shoulders of the young man in red.
Vlad returned to the cabin with a heavy heart, his hopes fading away.
But he would need to get the lord’s permission to bring them back.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Upon entering the restaurant, Vlad was left dumbfounded. beacon Meats relentlessly roasting over braziers tended to by servants. amateur The warmth of the room heated Vlad’s heart and lifted his spirits.
I’m glad to be here.
“Tadak-tadak-tchik-”
“….”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It had been worth it.
“Welcome, and I apologize for not being able to greet our honorable guest in person!”
Although he had complained about the distance from the carriage, Vlad sincerely thought the same as he beheld the scene now.
Vlad stood stiff as a board in front of the rotating meat, rolling his eyes.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“I know, I know; rumors about you are already spreading all over Sturma!”
Orsen Kannor, the head of the Kannor House and Portly’s father, patted the boy’s back with a thick hand, seemingly amused by Vlad’s carefree reaction.
“Nice to meet you, Vlad, squire of House Bayezid.”
Orsen Kannor smirked as he watched Vlad bow, a gesture he had learned from Countess Oksana.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
The birth of a new star was always welcomed.
The people of Sturma, upon learning that the boy was in their city, spoke of Vlad with a certain pride.

It had been a long time since the boy invoked the discipline of the Sword Master.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Orsen Kannor’s stomach growled, even though he hadn’t eaten, as he looked at the lanky boy before him.
He looks so clean, trustworthy, and, above all, like he wants to be given a lot of dry food.
‘Looks like Portly has made a friend!’
He had been concerned about Portly adapting to life in Bayezid’s mansion, but the sight of the boy in front of him made his worries fade away.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Vlad observed Orsen’s behavior, trying to deduce his disposition from his alley habits.
“Sit down,” he said, “for it’s been a long time since I heard a Sword Master talk about discipline!”
There was sincerity in his gaze and behavior, and an air of dignity in his broad smile.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“I’m very happy to own this house, as today we have very distinguished guests!”
While Vlad listened to Orsen’s words, he remembered that he wasn’t the only guest here today.
He had the air of a hospitable man, and judging by his eagerness to attend to guests, he seemed quite outgoing.
In other words, he seemed like the right kind of person to do business with.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Besides, everyone here is from Bayezid, so that’s an advantage!”
Vlad was unfamiliar with the norms of noble or wealthy families, so he could only assume that the owner of this place would know. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
“Do you have guests from other places?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
It was then that Vlad realized the identity of the other guests and followed Orsen to his seat.
Vlad scratched his head upon hearing that the other guests were also from Bayezid.
“Bayezid?”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Men with a strong aura, too, with a refined sense of momentum.
Vlad might have held his head high when he knew nothing about them, but now that he had glimpsed the world, the strength they exuded was overwhelming.
Their strength.
“….”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“Long time no see, how have you been?”
The man with familiar dark hair smiled at Vlad.
The man resembled his master, but instead of dark tones of sadness, he wore a confident smile.
And then there was the man sitting in the midst of them, looking at him as if he owned the place.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Rutiger Bayezid, the eldest son of House Bayezid.
He was smiling at Vlad.
“I didn’t know I would be in a place like this, Lord Rutiger.”
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Before Rutiger could finish his sentence, the knights sitting beside him began to grow furious.
“I don’t know if you’re allowed to eat with me today, but these are too good to pass up.”
And rightly so.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
The brat who had rejected his lord’s favor was sitting in front of them.
Rutiger grimaced, pointing his thumb at the whole roasted pig that kept turning endlessly behind him.
“…..”
Looking at him, Vlad thought.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
For a man with such fierce momentum.
“…I’ll be fine today.”
So why insist on eating peanuts?
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
“…Really?”
But Vlad didn’t lower his head, even though he shivered.
“I was looking forward to it too.”
He just looked ahead, decisively gripping the fork in front of him.
Translation of Star-Embracing Swordmaster - Chapter 43: A vacation that doesn’t feel like a vacation (3) by Indra Translations.
Rutiger smiled slyly as he saw the boy staring at him with fierce blue eyes.
