660 - - Art. 660 Meeting With Angels
Albe woke up with a start when he felt a big shock on his body.
He hears a noisy noise. It seems that they have arrived. He crawls away from the place.
Albe is in the back of the wagon. He had approached a carriage that happened to pass by just before dawn and asked for a lift to a nearby village.
The driver of the carriage was a stubborn and eccentric-looking old man with a white beard. The man looked at the gold coins offered by Albe, then snatched them out of his hands and took them.
The cart was covered with a top, so that he could not see what was inside from the outside, but there were large baskets of vegetables crowded in the cart. He managed to sit down in between them and finally got some rest.
The smell of greenery tickled his nose. He felt a little intoxicated by it, but gradually felt a sense of relief to be leaving this place of abomination. With each step the carriage took away from the place, he felt as if he was truly free from all the unfortunate events of the past. Perhaps because of this sense of relief, he fell asleep before he knew it.
Light was shining through a gap in the hood. Albe reached out his hand to the edge of it and looked at the world outside. The dazzling light flashed in his eyes.
After a while, his eyes became accustomed and he could see the scenery around him. It seems to be a very bustling city. People are crowded together.
Albe gets off the back of the truck and quickly leaves the place. He knew that he had to thank the old man for giving him a lift, but he was not very good with that kind of people. He wandered around the city aimlessly, thanking him in his mind.
It was a fairly large city. Food, clothes, ornaments ......, everything you could think of was for sale. Despite the chaos, the whole city seemed to be alive, and Albe liked it intuitively.
...... still have money. I think I'll live here for a while and think about the future.
He thinks about this as he searches for an inn. He also wonders about the effects of the poison he threw into the river yesterday. Probably the town where the river water flowed into is in an uproar right now. I am sure that I would be able to hear about it from the city.
Thinking of this, he looks around for an inn. At that moment, his eyes caught sight of an unusual group of people.
Two very large men were coming toward him from the front, intimidating those around them. Upon closer inspection, he saw that both men had their hands on the swords at their waists. They looked as if they were ready to slay anyone who showed hostile intent.
Behind the man was a small woman. Albe was transfixed by her face.
Her skin was white. Her eyes were bright and charming. Stunning golden hair. ....... She looked like an angel from a fairy tale that his mother had told him long ago. There was such a beautiful woman in this world. ....... Albe gazed at her with open mouth.
Then the procession stopped. He looked and noticed that the woman was staring at him. Albe looked back to see who she was looking at, not expecting that she was looking at him. But there was only a wall and no human being in sight.
When he looked back, his eyes met the woman's again. She was still staring at Albe. At that moment, the woman's mouth opens in a line and she smiles at me, showing her white teeth.
Albe's body trembled.
"Miss, what ......?"
A well-built man was calling out from behind the woman. Apparently, she was accompanied by two other men behind her.
The woman is still smiling. Then she closed one eye.
Albe's heart beat faster. He can feel his heart beating very fast, pounding, pounding. He continues to look at the woman, gasping for breath. No, he could not move from that spot. He couldn't even move his fingertips.
The woman took her eyes off Albe with a smile on her face and started to walk slowly forward. The men in front of her started to walk in sync with her movements. Albe looked away from her in a daze.
"Hey!
Suddenly, Albe was grabbed by the chest when she thought she heard a loud man's voice. The man's face, with a grim expression on his face, was at close range.
The lady wants to see you. Come here."
The man grabbed Albe by the collar and dragged him away.
The man grabbed Albe by the back collar and dragged him away.
"Here we are."
I wonder how long we walked. Actually, it was probably only a few minutes, but to Albe it seemed like a tremendous amount of time. When he came to his senses, he found himself in a large house with a large garden.
"Here, this is ......."
"This is the residence of Lady Miralda."
"Miralda?"
"He is the most powerful man in Jerichy."
"Jalousie?"
Yes.
Um, why?
"The lady likes you. If you want to save your life, you'd better watch your language.
"Oh, um, ......"
"Come."
Interrupting Albe's words, the man turned on his heel and began to walk away. Albe had no choice but to follow him.
When he opened the large door and entered, he saw a man dressed in a purple, ornate-looking costume. The man who had brought Albe with him was kneeling down on one knee.
"Master, I'm home!
"Oh. ...... who's that guy?"
The man looked at Albe as if he were looking at something dirty. You can clearly see that he is completely suspicious of you. Unable to bear his gaze, Albe lowered his eyes to his feet.
"This one, my lady, is ......."
"Milwa? Again ......."
The man clicked his tongue, looked as if he was biting a bitter bug, and fluttered his hand, urging us to leave. The man who had been waiting stood up again, bowed deeply, and turned to Albe.
"Follow me. Let's go."
Albe began to follow the man again. As they walked down a long hallway, the man suddenly stopped, opened the door to a room, and walked in.
"My lady, I have brought you..."
Come in."
A woman's voice came from inside. The man beckoned Albe to come inside the room.
Inside, a large canopy bed was set up. Inside was the woman who had just smiled at him.
"Well, I'll leave you to it.
The man who had led the way bowed reverently and left the room. Albe was not sure what to do, and could do nothing but remain silent. Then he heard a crazy laugh coming from inside the bed.
"Cahahahaha! What are you so frightened of?"
The woman talks to me, still with a big smile on her face. Albe stands there with a tight smile on his face.
"You have great desire, don't you? No, I'd say it's a lot of desire. Isn't that right?
Albe's body trembled as he was hit on the target unexpectedly. The woman looks on, giggling.
"I understand. It's not just lust. You have something that can do it. I love men like that. Say it. What do you want? Money? Honor? Women?"
"Let ...... all the women in the world ...... line up ...... beautiful women ...... my ......."
Seeing Albe struggling to squeeze out a few words, the woman burst out laughing again.
"Cahahahaha! I see. A woman. I like it. I like it."
A woman got off the bed and approached Albe. .......
