Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 79 Celebration (3)

But Baroness Rose was a graceful and smart woman, so she gave a simple nod before saying, "I'll leave this matter to you."

The knight gave another bow to accept this order.

When we thought that the knight would leave after this, he suddenly came over to me. As he stood there in front of me, I couldn't help being surprised by what was happening.

I looked at him with a strange look, but I waited for him to speak first.

Then in front of everyone, this knight gave a slight bow to me that caught everyone off guard again.

Everyone just looked at the knight with a confused look as they waited for the knight to explain what was happening.

As his head was slightly down, the knight said, "Thank you for saving the head knight. If it wasn't for you, we would have lost her and maybe the entire town."

Hearing this, I couldn't help being even more taken aback. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝒎

I never thought that anyone would mention that matter since it was the priest and Cecilia who had taken down the Goblin General together. What I had done was almost negligible.

I looked over at Cecilia who had a blush on her face seeing the knight act like this and I knew that it wasn't something that she put him up to.

While this was happening, there were several knights and soldiers that also came over to bow to me.

I just couldn't understand why they were doing this until I took a closer look at them.

I saw that there was sincerity in their stance and could hear the sincerity in their voice. They were thanking me for what they thought I did with the bottom of their hearts.

I knew that these were subordinates that had followed Cecilia for a long time and had been personally trained by her, but I never thought that their relationship would be this close.

It seemed that Cecilia was an even better commander than I thought.

At the same time, I started to understand why they had stood up for me in the first place.

I came forward and took the knight by the shoulder, helping him up before saying, "There's no need for this. If I had the chance, I would do the same."

Hearing this, all of the knights and soldiers revealed surprised looks as they looked up at me. Then after a pause, all of them suddenly revealed smiles.

These knights and soldiers were all part of the group that had been called out with Cecilia to attack the monster wave. They had been out on the field when I had gone out to save Cecilia and they had seen everything that I had done.

So it wasn't strange that they knew everything about what had happened.

The knight looked at me with a serious gaze before he gave a nod and also revealed a smile.

This was a celebration feast, so there was plenty of food and drink to go around.

The knights and soldiers picked up a few flasks and brought them over. The knight that led them also handed one of the flasks to me and raised his own towards me.

I immediately understood what he meant and we knocked our flasks together before chugging it all down. Instead of fake drinking, I actually drank this time.

That was because instead of being in a dangerous situation, this was a celebration feast for this town that I belonged to.

If I didn't take the lead to liven the festivities, then who would?

The rest of the feast went on as planned, the guard that was taken away didn't ruin anyone's mood.

But this time, no one dared to disrespect me like they had before.

The townspeople never had a deep disdain for me in the first place like the soldiers and knights had. Now that the soldiers and knights were showing that they were warming up to me, the townspeople couldn't help becoming curious about me.

After drinking together and having fun together, the bad reputation that I had in the minds of the townspeople was written over and they started warming up to me.

It wasn't enough to make them love me as much as they did Baroness Rose, but at the very least they no longer looked down on me like before.

By the end of it, I was completely drunk.

I didn't remember how much I had to drink, but it definitely wasn't a small amount.

Baroness Rose and Cecilia had been watching from the side with a smile, almost as if they were holding back. They knew that if they came out now, they would take the spotlight away from me and it would make it harder to open up the hearts of the townspeople to me.

So they decided to take the backseat this time.

At the same time though, they were happy to see that everyone was starting to open up to me.

After I passed out from being drunk, I didn't know what happened to me.

I could hear a few voices that were softly ringing out around me that sounded very familiar.

Also, I remembered being carried by a few soft hands.

When I woke up, I found that I was in complete darkness.

After taking some time for my eyes to adjust to this darkness, I found that I was back in my room. Based on how dark it was outside of the curtains, it should be the middle of the night right now.

As I laid there, I tried to remember what happened before I passed out.

But as I was thinking, there was a throbbing feeling that came from my head.

This throbbing feeling made me remember just how much I had to drink at the feast and I realized what had happened…

I couldn't help revealing a bitter smile as I remembered this.

But then I realized that something was off.

Cecilia and Baroness Rose weren't here with me.

They normally slept with me when they were free and they had more free time during this time. So the fact that they weren't here was strange.

I was about to stand up and go look for them, but when I made noise as I sat up, the door suddenly opened.

I looked over and my chin dropped when I saw what was waiting there for me.
