“Would you like to check the documents together?”

“Yes!”

Blake smiled broadly and nodded.

As Blake liked it, the corners of Tenstheon’s mouth naturally turned up. But the smile didn't last long.

“I’ll show them what I used to do! I’ll put them in jail!”

“Thwey must be wiped out!”

(They must be wiped out.)

“I’ll get back at them! I’ll teaw their limbs to pieces and kwill them!”

(I’ll get back at them! I’ll tear their limbs to pieces and kill them!)

It was a document about the crimes and punishments of nobles from all over the country

There was nothing wrong with Blake's words, but seeing him spitting out such words as a child, Tenstheon felt like he had made Blake do something terrible.

“You'd better stop.”

“Why!”

Blake protested, but Tenstheon cleared the papers in front of him.

“Stop it.”

Blake, who had been happy working for the first time in a long time, was suddenly robbed of his papers.

He quietly got off the sofa without further protest.

“Blake, where are you going?”

“Just walk.”

“Let's go together.”

Tenstheon followed Blake.

“No need.”

“But it's still dangerous..”

“I’m nwot a real kid!” (I’m not a real kid!)

“……”

When Blake screams, Tenstheon pauses.

“It was mowe dangewous back then. If you were so worried, ypu shwouldn’t have abandon me.” (It was more dangerous back then. If you were so worried, you shouldn't have abandon me.)

There was sorrow in his voice. It was the first time that Blake himself brought up a story of the time when he was cursed.

Blake bit his lips and went outside. Tenstheon couldn’t follow him.

***

Blake walked in the garden alone, forcing the knights and servants not to follow him.

‘Why did I do that…what’s wrong with me? I’m not a kid.’

He regretted what he had said and covered his head with his small hands.

But then he heard a child's voice.

“Oh! It’s my wife!”

Wife? What do you mean? Besides, this voice is…!

Blake looked up in surprise. As expected, Coby was running toward him.

“I’m alwready married!”

When Blake refuted, Coby raised his fingers to his mouth.

He smiled as if it was cute seeing a child lie.

“……”

Blake shut his mouth without refuting.

He was a child anyway. There is no reason to argue with the utmost effort. He doesn’t think he’ll hear it even if he says it anyway.

In addition, he hurt his pride because he couldn't pronounce better than him.

“But how dwid you get hewe?” (But how did you get here?)

When Blake asked, Coby beckoned with embarrassment.

“Come here.”

Blake followed Coby. Then Coby cleaned up the lush grass under the high wall and showed the hole under it.

It was a historical royal villa, but it had been left unused since Tenstheon took the throne. As a result, it was not properly managed.

“Dwid you find it youwself?” (Did you find it yourself?)

“Yes, I'm great, right?”

Blake was amazed to see the proud Coby.

What should he do with this guy who is proud of invading the royal villa?

“Where awe youw parents?” (Where are your parents?)

“I don’t know!”

Coby turned his head. Did that guy also fight with his parents…?

“Lwet’s go.” (Let’s go.)

“Where to?”

“I’ll take you home.”

Blake was going to tell the knights, but he just decided to just take him home.

If he tells the knights, he'll definitely get in big trouble.

Of course, if it were just him and Ancia, he would have been sent back with moderate admonition, but Tenstheon was strict with rules and laws. So he might punish him.

If this is known, he could have severely punished Coby’s family as well.

Blake didn't want the case to get bigger.

Besides, his mind was a mess, so he wanted to go out for a while.

He’s going out for a while, but it'll be okay. He’s not even a real kid.

***

Blake came out of the villa with Coby through a hole.

He asked Coby to show him the way. However, Coby only circled the alley near the square. Blake felt like it was on purpose.

Blake asked impatiently.

“Whewe is youw house?” (Where is your house?)

“I don't know.”

“Say it.”

“No.”

Coby pouted.

“Youw parents awe worried.” (Your parents are worried.)

“Mom hates me!”

“What happened?”

Blake asked with anxiety.

“Mom only likes my brother! She bought him a sword, but not me!”

“Becwause youwe young.” (Because you're young.)

“I'm not young! I'm all grown up! I'll be a knight!”

“……”

“She also doesn’t let me eat candy! She’s telling me to eat fruits! I want candy, not strawberries!”

”……”

Blake was worried that there might be some reason, but it was only obvious that he grew up with love from his parents.

“Don’t tell me if ywo don’t like it. Gwo back and tell them.” (Don't tell me if you don't like it. Go back and tell them.)

Blake decided to go to Coby mother's fruit shop.

It's deep in the alley, but we could find it quickly if we went to the center of the square.

“I don't want to go. Let's just hang out.”

“No, youw parents would be worried.” (No, your parents would be worried.)

Blake spoke firmly to Coby, who was grumbling.

“Ck, I want to play with you.”

Unlike Coby, Blake didn't have the slightest desire to play with a real child.

By the way, the child had good physical strength. It was not enough to hide in the royal villa, even though we circled the alley, he didn't show any signs of fatigue.

“I’wll give you a sword, so go back.” (I’ll give you a sword, go back.)

“Are you going to give me a sword?”

Blake said to Coby, whose eyes were twinkling.

“Yes wooden sword.”

“Ck. I like a real sword.”

Coby grumbled. He looks only six years at most but he wanted a real sword. That's why his parents are against it.

“You cwan’t use a real sword. The one who’ll be in danger is youw opponent, not you.” (You can't use a real sword. The one who’ll be in danger is your opponent, not you.)

“Wow, how do you know that?”

“……”

Listening to Coby, Blake recalled his childhood.

“It is impossible to hold a real sword in this state. You can put your opponents in danger.”

Tenstheon had taught Blake the sword. He had a lot of fun when he learned the sword from him.

The only time he had fun, other than with Ancia when he was cursed.

“I hweard it somewhere. Anyway, Iw’ll give you a real sword if you pwactice hard.”

(I heard it somewhere. Anyway, I'll give you a real sword if you practice hard.)

“Really?”

Anyway, he had good stamina and was sharp enough to figure out the holes hidden in the villa.

He had some qualities to be a knight.

If he truly tries, he might be able to support him.

“Yes.”

As Blake nodded, Coby grinned brightly and hugged him.

“Thank you, wife!”

Blake felt the urge to cancel his offer right away. “Hey, kids are fast these days.”

Then, a group of men appeared.

Blake looked up at them. At a glance, they looked like beggars

“That little boy looked like a rich kid.”

The man with a big scar on his face pointed at Blake and said.

“Look at the hair color and the eyes. Maybe the kid’s not just a rich kid, he’s part of the royal family.”

As the green-haired man spoke, the person that came with him looked at Blake with greedy eyes.

Is he a trafficker? How annoying.

Blake wrinkled his eyes.

“Coby.”

He whispered and called his name. Then Coby, who was trembling, replied quickly.

“Yes.”

“I’ll stop them, you run.”

“Bu, but…”

He hesitated. He doesn’t think he can leave Blake alone. But from Blake's point of view, it was much more annoying for Coby to be here.

“Kid, do you think you can run away from us?”

The traffickers giggled. Blake pushed Coby on the back, hesitating.

“If you’we here, you’ll bother me. So go ahead.”

(If you're here, you’ll bother me. So go ahead.)

“Yes.”

When Blake spoke firmly, Coby nodded his head.

“Hey! Get him!”
