I Am The Commander Of The Second Male Lead’s Knights - Chapter 2
Nina was born in the countryside.
It was a poor, nameless village, but it was very peaceful.
It was when she was 5 years old that she remembered ‘the other world’.
For a five-year-old child, it was like a man passing by just mugged her.
Nina cried as her little head processed all the memories of her past life.
“I’m not Nina!”
“This is not my home!”
“You’re not my family!”
People thought Nina had gone crazy after she witnessed her parents’ accident.
Nina was born late. Her remaining family members were her brother, Allen, and her sister, Berry, who were both at least ten years older than her.
The two took good care of their youngest sibling, who was excited and talked nonsense.
Still, Nina was confused.
There were times when Nina would scream and run out of the house. The villagers. Who witnessed the scene, would click their tongues in disapproval.
“Did that kid go nuts again?”
“She keeps going round and round as if her feet are on fire.”
Her sister would always glare at the villagers, who gossiped at Nina, while her brother always looked for her.
During the farming season, her brother always came out looking for her from sunrise to sunset, even after farming for a whole day.
“Nina, let’s go back.”
“Nina, where are you?”
“Nina, it’s alright.”
Our youngest and the prettiest in the whole world.
Nina, the cutest in the whole world.
Nina, Nina, Nina, Nina, Nina.
He would always call her kindly and gently.
Even with the confusion that swept Nina’s mind, her family held her hand and won her over.
It would be a little funny to say that she won by struggling against her memories, but victory is still a victory.
Nina’s memories of another world became a part of her and have completely become one with her as she grew up.
Her memories are pieces of the mosaic that formed Nina.
Memories can’t beat reality, and the dead can’t beat the living.
Overcoming that obstacle, Nina became a very smart child thanks to her memories.
She learned how to count and write much faster than the other children her age. Berry and Allen were very proud of her.
Berry always tied Nina’s brown hair into pigtails. The kids in the village could tell that Nina’s family takes really good care of her just by looking at her hair.
The strings that tied Nina’s hair were specially colored by Allen.
Nina would flutter the red ribbons around while chatting with her brother and sister.
They were happy.
Until the Bellacs appeared and took everything away from her.
Memories keep popping up inside her head.
Nina knew she was dreaming.
‘No, why is there a lantern here?’
The Bellacs were a group of robbers who broke into their village. Nina was caught by them and sold to human traffickers.
A dream.
She also had a dream at that time.
A voice whispered to her and patted her head gently.
– It’s alright. As long as the things you say come from your heart, it will sound sincere to everyone. And everyone will know your kindness from within your soul……
That was her dream.
She couldn’t remember anything else anymore, but she felt energized when she woke up the next day. Her sister and brother were in that dream……
Weren’t they?
It was the Duke of Luvwayne who bought her.
The words ‘Duke of Luvwayne’ sounded familiar to her.
It wasn’t until her brother and sister died that she realized that the place overlapped with a story she read in the other world.
So when she was sold as a kitchen maid, Nina was curious about one thing.
Would Adrian, the second male lead, be here? Or not?
This has the same time frame as the book she read, doesn’t it?
Surprisingly, there was indeed an Adrian in that house.
Except, Adrian in the book was in his 20’s. Adrian here is only 9 years old and a year younger than her.
Adrian, the son of a duchess, became an ordinary man when he was 8 years old.
The duke remarried when he was eight, and the new duchess began to reject Adrian.
It was when it started.
When Adrian was 9 years old, the duchess had her first child, Gerald, and started her plans against Adrian.
The duke supported the duchess’s plan with indifference.
Adrian’s maids, nanny, and other servants were all removed.
The only one who called him ‘Young Master’ was Nina.
When she found Adrian, she couldn’t help but feel excited. She thought all the light in her life was gone, but she found a new source of happiness.
The time has finally come for her to stop being tormented.
Nina, who was poor, pitiful, and lost her family, wanted to be someone who could help someone, too.
Nina was determined to stay by his side.
No one ever called Adrian, ‘Young Master’.
Except for Nina.
The contents of the book she read were roughly like this:
The villain tries to destroy the world, and the saintess, who is the heroine, together with the male lead and second male lead, will defeat the villain.
That’s right, the second male lead is Nina’s master.
‘Well, it’s also good to be a second male lead.’
Should people always succeed in love?
People get dumped at least once in their lives, too.
But that was not the problem. It was the growth and future of the second male lead.
1. He was abused and his whole body has become numb.
2. He was appointed as the commander of the front liners in the battlefield against the Bellacs by the duchess’s ruse.
3. The duchess attempted to poison him multiple times. + That leads to poor health.
4. His knights were annihilated because of the villain’s plan. + It scarred his heart and mind.
5. Killed the whole family and became the duke.
6. Stayed away from impoverished territories and from hunting Bellacs.
Now, look.
Isn’t it too much that the heroine hasn’t even appeared yet?
Everything gets a little better once the heroine appears. The heroine takes care of the land, finds special products, and invigorates the land. So, in an instant, everything can change into something better, from the poorest to the richest!
Wow. Nina applauded.
By the way.
The second male lead, whose health deteriorated because of the poisons his stepmother fed him, dies shortly after the final battle.
And left everything in the hands of the heroine and the male lead.
‘No.’
Isn’t that a great story?
To leave the second male lead out of all the sweet and wonderful stuff?
Nina didn’t want her master to live like that.
Let him die like the original story? That’s funny.
‘This is a life where I know everything that happens.’
First, she had to get close to Adrian.
“Young Master.” Nina sang, but Adrian didn’t even give her a glance.
He ignored her call and acted as if she was not there.
In the end, Nina had to use her last resort.
‘I’ll get something to eat!’
But she can only do so much. Nina made food out of the remaining ingredients in the kitchen.
She hid it well in the garden and opened Adrian’s bedroom window.
Sneaking through the window like a thief, she called him. “Adrian.”
She thought it would be weird to go over a bedroom window in the middle of the night and call him, “Young Master.”
A maid should just do her duty as a maid. And someone who shouts “Let’s play!” by the window in the middle of the night is not a maid.
But a friend.
A friend does not call their friend, ‘Young Master’. Nina was very nervous but she tried to look calm.
Adrian wasn’t sleeping.
The boy just looked at her indifferently and Nina smiled broadly, her teeth clasped together with tension.
“Let’s have a picnic!”
She thought he would say no, but he simply followed her and ate the food.
