The Knight Eldania S2
44: Eldania

“ KKHAK….!. “ 

The sneezing sound immediately disturbed the sleeping Eldania. With her eyes still mamai, Eldania glanced to the right. “ Ehmm....., it turns out that a bird like you can sneeze too. “ Eldania muttered to Everst who had just sneezed in her arms. “ Looks.....there are those who do not like you, tuh. “ said Eldania with selamba.

[Nothing, but there are many. ]Everst stared flatly at what was in front of him. His eyes were completely greeted by that charming looking neckline. 

“ Miss Eld.....have you woken up?. “ Outside the tent, Evan is standing waiting.

“ .........?, yes. “ Eldania who was about to close her eyes again to continue her sleep, immediately disengaged his intention because there were guests night-night. “ Log in. “

Innocently, Evan accepted the invitation to enter. So Evan just walked in. “ Coincidentally there is something I want to give you. Then I'm in. “ Politely, Evan slightly lowered his head as he passed the tent door, while uttering. “ Excuse me. “

“ So what items do you want to provide?. “ Eldania asked suddenly just as Evan had just taken two steps in.

“ .............?!. “ Evan who slightly held back his surprise, immediately made to turn to the left side while answering. “ I just want to give this to you. “ Deploying a piece of paper to Eldania.

“ What is this?. “ Eldania instantly received that scroll of paper and directly read it.

“..................!. “ Evan who was only aware of what he saw at this time when he saw the clothes worn by Eldania was quite minimal, at that time Evan immediately turned his back on the girl and said. “ Better put on your clothes first. “

“ What?. Didn't I wear my clothes?. “ replied Eldania without seeing her interlocutor. Because there is something more interesting than just discussing the clothes he is wearing, which is reading his letter. [What am I naked for?. But this is interesting....why did that guy give me this much money?. ] His eyes were wide open when he saw that there were many zeros behind the number four in the midst of the many sentences listed in the letter. 

" But it's like a dal-garment..... " Evan immediately stopped his mouth to speak more.

" This is indeed interior, but not underwear as well" replied Eldania once again in a casual tone. " Hey Everst….. "  With a sumringah face, Eldania called out her name happily.

Everst immediately flew off and landed on Dania's shoulder. His head then looked at the piece of paper he saw in front of him.

" Aren't there a lot of zeros here?". said Dania as she stretched her hands forward while poking the width of the paper she held.

" It looks like it. But do you look proud of that little money?" he asked.

" Hmmm!. Because money is money. You can't enjoy life without money, can you?." replied Eldania using his mind.

Indeed, without any money Eldania could live. But money is the object that makes him able to enjoy his life more luxuriously. So it doesn't matter if it's a little or a lot, because now he can get some money to collect.

Therefore, he did not care about the little words spoken by Everst. Because there is one pride in itself, the money that Dania earned was the result of her own hard work.

" Why are there so many zeros?. All I remember, the job as a mercenary and plus my other job, was at least 3000 gold coins. But this......, 40 million?. "his eyes immediately frowned. He tried to re-correct how many zeros were listed on the paper.

Eldania felt no problem with his vision, but it was truly forty million!.

" Aren't you doing the most important work of our problem that hasn't been solved in years?" replied Evan, still turning his back on Eldania as he kept trying to keep his manners as a man.

" You mean about that big creature?. Durandal?. " 

" right. If not for you, until this second we would still have to eradicate the monsters to the point of being overwhelmed. Plus, now there are not many mercenaries who are willing to accept the offer from the duke master, want how many offers we have given. “

[My question was actually just a formality, because I already knew I would be paid a lot. But who would have expected this much!?. ] In his heart he won big. 

While making a smile for himself, Evan secretly glanced back. Looking at Dania's completely naked hands to the point of showing her shoulders, her belly is also visible, as well as the over-the-knee shorts that Evan thinks are ****** *****.

But…….

".............. " Evan saw the two arms of the girl wrapped in bandages.

" Sir Evan, your master didn't write the numbers wrong?. " 

" Do you not believe what is written in the letter?. "

" It's not….. " Dania then folded the paper into a small fold, and kept it in the pocket of the shorts she wore. " I'm just confirming my question. "

Evan turned back to him and replied. " That's right, since you've contributed a lot, that amount is the reward you deserve. " And Evan added. "  There's one thing I want to ask you before I leave. "

" What is that?. " 

" I was actually curious a long time ago, why are you talking casually to all of us?. "

[ What?!. Why would he ask such a question?. It's not why I have a bird that can turn out to be big, or why I have so much skill, or it could be, why I'm good at cooking food that they never eat. ]and without a second thought, Eldania answered immediately. " That's, first in my place I'm used to this way of speaking, second because your face looks young from your actual age, it was also one of the triggers for the way I interacted with you. Also.....for me that formal talk, instead of being very tiring?. " 

" Hm.you're too honest. "

[Don't you want me to answer honestly?!. ] The elbow crossroads on his forehead immediately appeared.

" Then, as the lady said this evening about the Arga knights. He's waiting for you up ahead. I will not interfere in your conversation, so good night and hope your journey tomorrow is smooth until the destination.“ Evan walked out without looking at the interlocutor who was not given the opportunity to answer his good night.

“ Yes..good night. “ Eldania replied with a flat gaze. “ What's with that guy?. He looks rushed. “ 

“ Do you not understand. Your current clothes undermine that person's idealism. “ replied Everst. “ So it's good to wear your clothes now. ;

“ Ha..?. Why are you a fussy bird today?. Like what I want to wear, I have my own right to determine my clothes. “ Eldania immediately replied to her words Everst firmly.

But because of that, Eldania when getting a gift from Everst.

PLACARDS…

“ Ahw...” Eldnia groaned, as his head was struck by Everst with his wings. 

“ Why don't you obey?. It's for your own good. “ Everst said firmly. [It was also for my own good.] And Everst took a sharp turn behind the door of the tent. There really was someone standing there waiting for Dania. 

[He hit my head hard?!. Did he get revenge because I hit him in the head?. But I just hit him lightly, but he….. ] Eldania was still taking a sharp turn at Everst because she was still dissatisfied with her actions just now.

“ Didn't you listen to me?. Wear your clothes se.ka.rang. “ said Everst with great emphasis. 

“ Yes..iya...the basics are noisy. “ muttered Eldania cursing, not liking everything that Everst did today to him. 

But despite not liking, in the end Eldania obeyed his words. Although his heart and mind still felt irritated and irritated, Eldania strangely realized that his body instinctively obeyed his words.
