Never Die Extra - Chapter 288
Chapter 288
[Well, thank god I got some help. After talking with all the AT translators, someone decided to work overtime and make-up these last 4 chapters for me! I’m glad that we’re finally moving forward. They finished these 2 chapters and are submitting the last 2 from the old team in a couple of hours. I’ll upload it if I’m awake… regardless. WE’RE GOING TO BE CAUGHT UP. These chapters were worked on by the Sword King translator, so they should be pretty good in quality. BTW, not that any of you care, but I drove 700 miles today lol- I’m so proud of myself. (1/29/21)]
Evan D. Sherden, Makes an Infant Class (2)
“I’ll follow you too, brother!”
Elizabeth D. Sherden was the daughter and apple of the Marquis’ eye. She had just turned seven years old this year. Elizabeth then cried out in all directions.
“I’m coming with you! I’m going with brother Evan!”
“Liz, I’m not going out to play.”
“I’m going to follow brother Evan, toooo! I’m going to travel with my brother!”
On the evening when Evan decided to go on a trip, he decided to visit the Marquis and had dinner with his family; the exhibition was brought up during dinner. Elizabeth began to throw a fit the moment she heard Evan was leaving.
“You can’t do that, Liz! You can’t be so stubborn!”
“I don’t care! I’m going to play with Evan!”
Miriam, the second wife of the Marquis and Elizabeth’s biological mother, tried to appease her, but could not stop Elizabeth’s stubborn outburst.
“Liz, come here. I’ll give you a hug.”
“Okay!”
Eventually, Evan had to hold her in his arms to calm her down. Evan looked with great regret at Miriam, who was gasping for air as Evan was holding Elizabeth.
“Mother Miriam…”
“I can’t even beat my seven-year-old daughter by force! What am I supposed to do?”
“Then, do you want to catch some slime too, mother Miriam?”
“No, I don’t want to!”
Elizabeth, in Evan’s arms, became wonderfully calm and wriggled Evan’s hand. She wanted Evan to hand over a slime. Evan summoned one and smiled bitterly at her.
“Oh Liz, I guess it’s too late for you to grow up to be a gentle aristocrat that the elderlies will favor.”
“It’s good that she’s active. Liz is going to stay unmarried for the rest of her life, so it’s okay.”
“Liz is marrying brother Evan!”
“Well, is that so…?”
Marquis Soline was discouraged by Elizabeth’s argument, which had not changed since she was three years old. How long will his daughter remain a fool for Evan, at least another decade?
“But Liz, I’m going out to the dungeon this time. It’s very dangerous, so I can’t go with Liz.”
“Huhu….”
Elizabeth was in tears because she could not complain about it when he spoke face to face. Only the small slimes burst out one after another in her trembling fist.
Miriam spoke in a sad tone as Evan patted Elizabeth on the back silently.
“You know, Liz is looking for you every day. Just come and play with her when you have time.”
“Hmm, mother Miriam. Why don’t you just send Liz over to the Astray headquarters? Even if Evan is away, there will be many people there to hang out with Liz.”
This was Eric’s words. Evan replied back because he felt dumbfounded.
“Brother, are you going to raise our sister as a warrior?”
“I’m sure she won’t grow up to be a polite lady anyway.”
“Hmm….”

Eric’s sharp comments shut Evan and everyone in the room. Evan couldn’t help but agree.
Unlike Sherden, which gave equal treatment regardless of gender due to its characteristics as a dungeon city, the Silk Line, the country where they lived, was still far below the modern level of values of people, especially nobles.
They regarded noblewomen as family property, or men’s decorations. In fact, the Silk Line’s King is also trying to make Evan his ally by pushing Serena and Evan to be together. That was why Serena was resisting against the King.
“I don’t think father is going to force Liz to play the role of an aristocrat, and I think it would be better to leave it up to Evan to develop Elizabeth’s skills early on.”
Eric, who gained confidence once everyone had gone silent, spoke firmly.
“You all know that Evan has an outstanding talent for nurturing skills. Right now, thanks to Evan, I’m stronger than ever… Liz seems to have a talent for dealing with physical abilities, so I’m just trying to educate her about other gifted children.”
“Well, that’s definitely good, too. I’m sure my family is more free-spirited and not that conservative. If we raise our daughter strong, people might be positive about Liz’s rather-active personality.”
The Marquis was intrigued! Miriam was already pouting her lips for fear of making her little daughter suffer, but Lady Redine, on the contrary, shone with interest.
“Evan was nine years old when he started training properly, right? Now Liz is seven years old and… perhaps Liz will be stronger than Evan?”
“No, that’s too much, Mother.”
“Dear Redine, that’s impossible…”
“Euonni! Don’t say such a thing as a joke!”
“Oh, what’s wrong with everybody’s reaction? Mother Miriam? Why are you avoiding my eyes?”
If Elizabeth was as strong as Evan, wouldn’t it be good? Evan had a sullen look on his face, and suddenly the Marquis looked bitter.
“But if that happens, we won’t be able to see Liz.”
“No, Father. I’m not asking you to send her away. Liz is young, and she should spend time with her parents. Don’t you know that the Royal Road has educational facilities for nobles and their children?”
“Aha! The Royal School!”
‘Oh, the Royal School?’ Evan opened his eyes wide. Certainly, such concepts had also appeared in the Yo-Ma Great War series. High-quality educational facilities located in the capital and royal islands of each country.
It was a kind of academy that each country had ambitiously created to cultivate talented people with both culture and combat skills by teaching history, language, mathematics, and even martial arts.…
‘In games, it was always used for the main character……’
When the main characters of the Yo-Ma Great War 3 and 4 were invited to the Royal School, they were always associated with the Royal School, where the children of the aristocrats laughed at them, and immediately after the scene, the main character’s amazing power was shown.
“I think the royal schools in this country have a lot of problems with their educational policies because there are always idiots in the places where they teach children.”
It didn’t matter if it was actually different from the game, of course. Evan was not going to the Royal School; it should be Must Save who needed to go there!
Eric continued when Evan was organizing his thoughts on the Silk Line Royal School in his head.
“Like this school, we can send Liz in the morning and bring her back to the mansion in the afternoon so that Liz can spend enough time with her father and mother.”
“Well, then…”
“No, honey, are you really going to raise Liz as a knight?”
Miriam shouted in surprise, and the Marquis nodded without hesitation.
“There’s no reason not to raise her as a knight. It’s a chaotic time, Miriam. If an individual can have strength, it’s better for them.”
“But if Liz grows up and meets a man strong enough to protect her, won’t that issue be solved…?”
“Liz is marrying brother Evan!”
Elizabeth, who insisted strongly again as soon as Miriam tried to refute, opened her eyes wide, and soon sighed and stretched her shoulders.
“Do as you please…”
“Okay, let’s strike it while it’s hot, I’ll send Liz right away starting tomorrow.

“Yes. I’ll see Liz off tomorrow.”
Evan originally intended to leave tomorrow, but this was inevitable. Evan seemed to be in charge of judging Elizabeth’s skills and establishing basic training methods.
“Hey, Evan.”
“Yes, Mother Miriam.”
“Since we are educating her, is there a way you could teach her academics? I know you excel in it.”
“Oh….”
Rather than academics, he was treated as a genius due to his peasant level knowledge about the Yo-Ma Great War video game series and liberal arts. Evan couldn’t overcome Miriam’s eager gaze at him and finally nodded.
“I’ll make sure she’s at a level where she won’t get looked down on.”
“Yeah, that’s all I ask. Thank you, Evan. Liz doesn’t listen to me, so even if I try to make her study, I can’t….”
‘You tried to make your seven-year-old daughter study? That would make her 8 years old in Korea, in elementary school, learning 1+1.’
Evan shook his head and hugged Elizabeth, looking at Miriam, who was reminiscent of Korean mothers, having traditional ideas and showing excessive enthusiasm for education.
“So, come to the Astray headquarters as soon as you wake up in the morning tomorrow.”
“Are you going to teach me from now on?”
“It might be a little hard. If you don’t like it, tell me in advance.”
“No, I like that! I like everything when I’m with you!”
The stars then twinkled in Elizabeth’s eyes. Evan laughed at the way she liked it so much. There was no guarantee that his younger sister would like and follow him forever, so he thought he should at least spend more time with her.

“Come on and hug Eir.”
“Ahhhhh!”
“Whaaat?”
After dinner, Evan and Bernard left to study the elixir at the Brotherhood Pharmacy. This time it was Bernard who suddenly put his daughter Eir in Evan’s arms.
“Hi, Evan!”
Evan’s pheromones did not discriminate against gender or age; thus Eir was also very fond of Evan. She smacked Evan on the cheek and laughed.
“Yeah, yeah, Eir, I think you’ve been doing fine. …What’s wrong, Grandpa?”
“Little boy, please do me a favor.”
Bernard gazed slowly at his pupil, who was no longer a little boy.
“Can you take care of our Eir?”
“What?!”
“…Grandpa, Eir just turned two years old.”
“She will be three years old this mid-November.”
‘Whether she’s two or three, she’s still too young!’ Before Evan could refute, Illoin appeared next to Bernard.
“We’re asking you a favor, Evan. To be honest, I can’t enjoy my honeymoon with Bernard because of Eir.”
“Are you still going to pretend you’re newlyweds?”
“I’m serious, Evan. I’m so stressed that I can’t stand it.”

“It sounds even more ridiculous because of that!”
‘You could’ve at least covered your daughter’s ears before saying something like that!’ Thinking about it, the wind was already blocking Eir’s ears. It was a good thing she had common sense.….
“Illoin, Evan’s misunderstanding it because of the way you said it. I’ll explain it to him properly…”
“…Misunderstand?”
“Illoin…?”
Bernard and Illoin seemed to have different views on the matter. As Evan stood with a stunned look on his face, Rose, who suddenly appeared like Illoin, explained it on their behalf.
“You know that Eir has dark magic, don’t you?”
“Yes, you already told me about that.”
“It’s a shame that she was born with dark and light. That’s why her growth is slow for a Mahwa.”
“A shame!? That’s what I should be saying!”
“Hmm… I mean, her growth is too fast for an elf.”
“Ho-oh, you’re sharp as expected.”
Evan saw straight to the point, despite not having heard much. Come to think of it, Eir was quite big even though she was not three years old yet.
Her body was slender like an elf’s bloodline, so she looked younger, but in terms of height and features, she looked similar to Elizabeth, with a bit of exaggeration. People would believe it if they were told that they were sisters born a year apart.
“Moreover, neither her dark nor light magic is strong. So, I was wondering how to teach this child in the future…”
“And then we came to think of it, there’s a guy nearby who handles both dark and light magic. That’s you.”
“No, Grandpa, I’m not carrying dark magic directly in my body, but I’m able to do that because I have boots with the energy of a Demon…….”
“Ah, enough of that. You think just anyone could handle dark magic because they wear those boots? Anyway, this is the situation, so you teach her. Aren’t you good at that? Finding and nurturing the skills and talent of a mentee.”
Evan didn’t expect to have the same conversation with other people today. Furthermore, it was for Bernard, who had taught Evan for years. He could not possibly say he didn’t want to teach his daughter…
“…Oh, that’s great. I actually took my sister to the Astray headquarters to teach her. You should send her at the same time. In the morning.”
“Oh, the little girl? She can be a good friend to Eir.”
“I’ll have friends?”
Around that time, the magic of the wind was released, and Eir listened to them. Evan gave her a light smile and stroked her head.
“It’s Elizabeth Unnie. I’ll introduce you two tomorrow, Eir.”
“I’m excited! I like Evan!”
Eir, who felt like she didn’t have a single ounce of dark magic, smiled and kissed Evan on the cheek.
‘I appreciate it, but there are already so many people who like me, so I Eir would calm it down a little bit…’ Evan sighed, thinking this to himself.
“Maybe it’s all a trick to make Eir marry me.”
“Oh, I’m telling you he’s smart because he’s my student.”
“I’m fine! I’m seriously fine!”
“Evan, you don’t like me?”
“That’s not it! That’s not it!”
Evan was trying to soothe Eir, who was about to cry, and he shot Bernard a dirty look.
This led to the creation of an early childhood education class in Astray. He wondered if this would end with two children or more. Evan couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of uneasiness…
