The Eldest Daughter Walks the Path of Flowers Episode 179

Eve was definitely a cat person, but now that she thought about it, she actually liked dogs more than cats.

And she preferred big dogs over small ones, and seeing Ban made her realize that the bigger they were, the cuter they became.

‘So big, so cute…!’

She stealthily glanced at the sleeping Ban and walked toward his front paws.

Like his nose, his large paw pads still had a slight pink tinge and gave off a savory scent that tempted her.

Radis confirmed that Ban’s eyes were closed.

Ban usually said his front paws were his most sensitive area and absolutely wouldn’t let her touch them.

But wouldn’t it be okay now that he was deeply asleep?

Radis carefully burrowed into Ban’s embrace and sat in front of his front paws that were curled up against his chest.

Ban was sleeping with both front paws gathered toward his chest, looking like two large teddy bears lying side by side.

“Gasp…!”

Radis unconsciously covered her mouth.

“So cute…!”

Unable to hold back any longer, she tightly hugged Ban’s large paw pad.

The startled Fenrir’s blue eyes snapped open as he shouted.

[What!]

Ban lifted his head to check his front paw and discovered Radis clinging to it.

[Master, again…!]

“Ah, sorry…!”

Ban pulled back his lips to bare all his teeth and let out a growling sound.

Radis had no choice but to let go of Ban’s front paw.

Ban half-raised his body and shook his head vigorously.

Then his large body instantly shrank and transformed into human form.

Radis let out a disappointed sigh.

“Ban, I always tell you this, but I like your true form better than your human appearance.”

Ban replied irritably.

“Master, I always tell you this, but when I’m in my true form, you treat me too much like a dog.”

Ban in human form had the same bluish-white hair flowing down as when he was in Fenrir form.

His appearance somehow looked like a mix of Eve, Olivier, and Robert, probably because those three were the only human men Ban found beautiful.

Radis thought to herself.

‘I guess monsters and humans have similar taste…’

Ban yawned languidly like a wolf, showing the inside of his red mouth with his beautiful face resembling Olivier and Eve, then asked.

“Coming today means you want to go to the past, right?”

“Yeah. Please take care of it, Ban.”

“It’s not even difficult.”

Ban sniffed with his perfect nose that resembled Olivier and Eve.

“What’s that?”

Radis realized she was holding a bag of cherries.

“Oh, this. Akut asked me to deliver it.”

“That fool. I’m carnivorous. If he’s going to send something, he should send meat. Well, it’s not bad as a snack though.”

Ban took the bag of cherries from her.

Then he put his hand inside his clothes and scratched his perfect abs that resembled Eve and Robert.

“Should we go now?”

Radis pulled his hand away from scratching his stomach.

“Ban, there will be many people where we’re going, so you can’t just expose your stomach and scratch it like that.”

Ban seemed hurt by her words.

Multicolored light began to spread from deep within his blue eyes.

“I am a being who reigns over the earth according to the will of the gods! Born with the soul of Chronos, manager of time, in the body of Fenrir, king of monsters – a king among kings! I cannot be bound by the mere laws of humans!”

After thinking for a moment, Radis said.

“Exposing your stomach and scratching it is similar to lifting your leg to mark territory.”

At her words, Ban’s handsome cheeks immediately turned red.

“Ma-marking territory! I, I don’t do that!”

“You do. Secretly.”

“Grr…!”

“Anyway, you can do it, just do it secretly. That’s how it is. Got it?”

“…”

Ban apparently didn’t want to discuss this matter any further.

He turned his reddened face away and spoke quickly.

“Fine. Let’s go.”

“Now?”

Without even responding to Radis’s words, he waved one hand.

Then a long tear appeared in the space before them, as if clawed by fingernails.

Beyond it, they could see people busily moving about.

Ban stepped into it.

“Come with me!”

Radis followed behind him.

The next moment, they were standing in the middle of a crowd.

Realizing they had come to the past, Radis admiringly patted Ban’s shoulder.

“Ban, you’re really amazing! No spells needed, you just tear space and it’s done?”

“…I’m Fenrir. I’m a magical creature to begin with. I don’t need spells or anything.”

Ban twitched his pretty nose that resembled Olivier and Eve as he looked around.

“Amazing. Are these all humans? Why are so many humans gathered in one place? Is this some kind of human breeding ground?”

“Everyone except you is human. And this isn’t a breeding ground, it’s an arena.”

Radis pushed through the crowd and moved forward.

“To be precise, this is the arena where our vice-captain dueled with another Master when he received his Master seal. We came to watch Robert’s duel.”

After pushing through the crowd to the front, an open circular arena appeared before their eyes.

Radis found a suitable seat and sat down, then looked at the arena with sparkling eyes.

Ban, who had been looking down at her with an incredulous expression, plopped down beside her and asked.

“Robert? You mean the mercenary group’s vice-captain, right now?”

“Yeah.”

“But Robert is with the mercenary group.”

“He is.”

“But you specifically came to the past to see Robert?”

“Yeah.”

“Why?”

Just then, people began to cheer loudly.

Radis pointed at the arena and said proudly.

“This is the only moment we can see the vice-captain like that.”

Robert was walking out from the edge of the arena covered with white sand.

He wore silver armor engraved with the emblem of the Black Knight Order and had a black cloak with the shield-shaped insignia of House Russel embroidered on it flowing long behind him.

His appearance was so majestic that even Ban asked.

“That’s Robert?”

“Right. Vice-captain, you’re so cool—!”

Ban looked confused.

“That Robert who’s under Noeri’s thumb?”

“I told you it’s him!”

Radis laughed joyfully and shouted loudly.

“Our vice-captain is the best! Our vice-captain who wouldn’t be embarrassed anywhere…!”

Ban still looked like he couldn’t believe it, but he seemed to have developed an interest in the match as he placed the bag of cherries on his lap and took a proper viewing position.

Radis blinked her eyes when she saw that bag of cherries.

“You brought this all the way here?”

“It just happened? My mouth was bored, so it worked out well.”

“Hey, you really did well. I want to eat some too.”

They crunched on cherries together while looking at the arena.

They could see Robert and the past Radis, along with his sparring partners Lord Zenon and Rollard, approaching the dais where the Emperor stood.

Ban suddenly burst into loud laughter when he spotted her red hair.

“Uhahahaha! That’s Master, right?”

Unable to deny it, Radis had to hold her forehead and bow her head.

“No, why is Master following Robert around like a subordinate?”

“…You know, in that other future, Robert was the captain of our extermination corps.”

“Even so, that looks too much like a faithful lackey!”

“Be quiet, Ban.”

Emperor Claude’s short speech ended, and it was time for the senior knights to remove the cloaks of the Master and Master candidate entering the duel.

Radis, who had been dry-washing her face, covered her face with both hands and said.

“I’m not going to watch.”

“Uhahahaha!”

“I’m not watching.”

“M-Master! Are you stupid?”

Because of Ban’s loud laughter, Radis eventually had to slyly open her eyes between her fingers and look ahead.

In the center of the arena, her past self was walking stiffly, holding up Robert’s cloak in an endlessly clumsy posture.

She had thought it was pathetic even at the time, but seeing it like this made her head spin.

Ban didn’t know her feelings and giggled while holding his stomach.

“Uhahahaha!”

“…That’s not what’s important. Don’t mind that side. Last time I couldn’t watch the match because of that Rollard guy or whatever, and I was so frustrated about it.”

Radis said with an indignant face while crunching on cherries.

“Focus on the match, Ban.”

In the center of the arena, Lord Zenon in his characteristically avant-garde armor and Robert were slowly moving while keeping a certain distance, as if probing each other.

The midday sunlight was hot, and heat shimmer was rising from the pure white sand covering the arena floor.

The atmosphere between the two knights moving slowly in the middle was truly explosive.

Then they could see Lord Zenon slowly bringing his hand to his sword hilt.

Ban muttered.

“Ooh.”

The next moment, Zenon’s sword was drawn and began pouring sharp attacks toward Robert.

Radis focused on Zenon and Robert’s match with shining eyes.

“Lord Zenon’s swordsmanship is typical northern swordsmanship. Light, irregular, and sharp.”

Ban said.

“Like a gnat.”

“…”

“Why is the vice-captain struggling so much against that gnat-like guy? Why doesn’t he just get rid of him right away?”

“…Wait a bit.”

To Radis’s eyes, Robert seemed somewhat flustered.

However, to Ban and others, Robert appeared to be completely overwhelmed by Zenon’s momentum.

Indeed, as if already getting bored, Ban turned his gaze from the center to look at the edges of the arena.

Suddenly Ban grabbed her elbow and shook it.

“Ooh!”

“What.”

“That guy threw a glove at Master!”

Excited Ban whispered in a low voice mixed with growling.

“I saw it in a book. Isn’t that a duel challenge?”

“Ah, I told you not to look over there!”

Radis grabbed Ban’s chin and made him look at the center of the arena.

At that moment, Robert’s sword emitted a brilliant light.

Moved, Radis shouted.

“This is it! This is what I wanted to see!”

“What, sword aura…?”

“Yes!”

Ban now had a truly incredulous expression.

“I really can’t understand. If you wanted to see sword aura, couldn’t Master just create it yourself? Why did you specifically come to the past to see this?”

Radis ignored Ban’s grumbling and focused on the match.

She could see Robert, who had been briefly conversing with Zenon, removing and throwing off his feather-decorated helmet.

Under the intense sun, his platinum hair caught the light and sparkled, soon revealing his ruggedly masculine face.

Then the noble ladies in the front rows of the arena let out happy screams.

Radis wanted to scream too.

But she couldn’t do that in front of Ban.

Radis had to cover her mouth, which was blooming with a smile.

‘Vice-captain, the best…! Hah, I’m so glad I came…!’
