I Am The Commander Of The Second Male Lead’s Knights - Chapter 130

After fully appreciating Jean’s agony, Nina explained the situation making Jean contort his face and scream, “Oh, really, Nina La Dell!”. Nina burst out laughing.

You’re really fine, I didn’t have to worry, give me my worries back.

Having said that, Jean took a deep breath of relief. She was not pretending to be okay, she was really okay.

Still concerned, Jean spoke gently.

“You can take a few more days off from training.”

“I think so, too.”

Nina replied leisurely. She cried so hard that she lost her energy. She thought about taking it easy whenever she could afford to relax.

Jean looked at Nina like that and said.

“Hey.”

“Yes.”

“I’ve seen you using spirits for a long time.”

“Yes.”

“I know there are spirits too.”

“Right.”

“Then won’t I be able to sign a contract?”

“Of course.”

Nina answered calmly, and Jean was rather embarrassed.

“Oh? Really?”

“I can’t believe you’re asking that back. You are a person who doesn’t have faith. Call the spirit with faith.”

“That faith is vague.”

“Trust! Believe that the spirit will surely lend their strength and bang!”

As Nina tapped the table with her palm, frost formed on the table and melted down.

“What do you mean bang······.”

“Do it, do it.”

At Nina’s urging, Jean waved his hand.

“No, I’ll do it later. Afterwards.”

“What spirit do you want to make a contract with?”

“Water is good… and fire is good······.”

Jean glanced at Nina asking if he was too greedy, but Nina only nodded her head.

“Both are fine.”

“Really?”

“Sure. Both water and fire are highly available to the eyes.”

Nina picked her finger.

“The Winter and The Sun feel more like spirits than those two.”

“What makes them feel more like spirits? But, other than The Sun and The Winter, do the spirits of water and fire exist?”

“They do.”

“What if there isn’t? What if I can’t sign a contract?”

Nina put her chin on her hand.

“How can you sing a contract when you are so distrustful?”

Jean sighed deeply.

“I know.”

“But anyway, there are only a handful of spirits users, enough to be counted in the hand and Jean is strong enough right now.”

“Not enough to deal with A-class Bellac alone.”

“No….There’s no one who can deal with A-class Bellac alone.”

You have to bring the knights along, usually.

“You are there, you. And his Grace can also do it.”

“You are greedy.”

When Nina pretends to touch her non-existent beard with an Ahem, Jean became depressed.

“Oh, yes, yes. After all, I`m not a walking spiritual incident.”

_{(TL: He’s talking about when Nina became OP when she accidentally summoned two High-Grade Spirits at once and lived to tell the tale.)}

“That’s not-.”

Nina was about to say something and scratched her head.

“I don’t know If it’s going to work, but let’s think of an image of the water spirit.”

When he began to seriously think, “It’s water……”, he was rather sulky.

“Next time, next time.”

As he waved his hand, he snatched the fan Nina was flapping and started to flap himself.

“Hey, why are you taking someone else’s fan? Buy one.”

Nina held out her hand. Jean pushed Nina’s hand back and forth. Looking at the fan he asked.

“What….is this ivory?”

“That’s right.”

“Crazy, what’s this? Did you buy it?”

“Do you think I would? I got it as a present.”

“Who gave you such an expensive gift? Did you get it from a weird guy?”

“It was given to me by the noble Lady Adele.”

“Ah.”

Jean quietly folded the fan and returned it to Nina. Lady Adele is now one of the two people who were major authorities in the social circles of the Ebensel Empire.

She was a foreign woman who, after marrying Count Jenkins, was still called Lady Adele.

“By the way, I was invited, would you like to go with me?”

“Eww-.”

He made a disgusted face, making Nina laugh.

“Why? Jean is really popular?”

“Every time I say something, everyone smiles, what’s popular with that?”

He felt bad. Nina smiled again as Jean made a bruised face to her.

Because of his direct way of speaking, the ladies lightly burst into laughter at him, but Jean seems to not like it very much.

‘He would rant that he said things with serious intent, yet everyone laughed at him.’

That’s why everyone likes and cherishes him. But she has no intention of forcibly taking someone who doesn’t like it.

“Then, shall I go alone?”

“Take the kids.”

“Which kids?”

“Kell, Pan, or Charlotte is fine. Oh, Hayden is fine too.”

Look at this. There are kids that you think are cute.

At Jean’s words, Nina smiled and nodded her head.

“Okay, let’s do that.”

Jean then made a face of relief. At the same time, a servant approached from the other side.

“Viscountess Dell, the merchant you have called has arrived.”

“Ah, thank you.”

As Nina got up from her seat, Jean asked, “Merchant? Did Lorocomo come with something?”.

“They didn’t sell it at Lorocomo’s.”

“What did you buy?”

Nina chuckled.

“Dress.”

────── •❆• ──────

“Viscountess La Dell has arrived!”

With the sound of announcement, Nina entered the hall.

During the imperial social season, balls were also held in town houses and mansions.

“Viscountess Dell.”

Adele smiled brightly and glided towards Nina. She sprinkled a lot of silver powder on her platinum blonde hair, making her sparkled like starlight.

“Lady Adele.”

Nina bent over and kissed the back of Adele’s hand, stretching her back she smiled softly. Adele blushed and flapped her fan like a little girl.

“Really, how come Viscountess Dell is always so cool?”

She gets attention just by wearing a black uniform with her long coat. The popularity of the Dark knights was so high that it pierced the skies. Among them, she was the knight commander, and Nina, who was tall and had a beautiful appearance, drew attention from young and old alike.

In particular, she was sweet to women, so it was everyone’s wish to dance with her at their coming of age debutant.

A cool face and silver hair that goes well with it. Golden eyes like the cold moonlight, red lips, and a graceful appearance. Everything was top of the line.

Young debutants used to pass out of adoration, saying that the way she held the sword was too cool to be true. In the past few years, there has been no hesitation in answering ‘Viscountess Dell’ when it comes to first love.

Adele was happy that Nina accepted her invitation.

“The designer you introduced to me was great. thank you.”

“You’re welcome. Can I hope to see Viscountess Dell in a dress?”

“If the time and place are right.”

Nina answered and looked back at Kell and Charlotte.

“Go and play.”

“What?”

“All right.”

Charlotte opened her eyes in a circle, and Kell smiled, crossing his arms in front of his chest.

“I didn’t call you as an escort, so go and enjoy the ball.”

Nina said so and disappeared among the crowd while talking to Lady Adele “is the Saint coming today?”. Charlotte who was left behind was embarrassed.

She looked around for a moment, and then sneaked up to a wall and stuck to it like glue. Kell hurriedly moved away from the approaching people with shining eyes and approached Charlotte.

“Are you going to stay like this?”

“The atmosphere is enough.”

“How about hanging out with people?”

“Like you did a few days ago?”

Kell smiled awkwardly at her words. Charlotte saw him getting slapped in the face. It wasn’t even at the ballroom since the other party came to the Duke’s manor.

Charlotte was training, so she politely and coldly cut off the other party asking her to leave, the girl stepped down while huffing. Even though Charlotte didn’t interrogate Kell, he just looked at her and made a series of excuses.

I didn’t even hold her hand.

I only listened to her stories.

Charlotte nodded her head at his words.

“Right.”

Her words were light but firm, so Kell was somehow relieved, but Raja, who also heard the story later said, “I guess so,” with a bitter face, so Kell was somehow jittery to prove his innocence.

As Kell looked down at her with a troubled face, Charlotte spoke softly.

“Go and play.”

He burst into laughter for a moment.

“Are you going to imitate the leader now?”

Her cheeks were blushing under her beige wooly hair.

“No.”

“Sigh.”

Kell resisted the urge to press her fluffy head.

Then Nina suddenly got in between the two.

“What are you doing?”
