2 Fiancee (1)
A private gymnasium in the basement of Chimseonggung Palace.
self-
The inside of the gymnasium was filled with black mist.
A black mist that moves around itself and spreads around as if it were alive.
It looked like the night sky in a way.
Countless stars were shining in the spreading fog.
And one black star that exists among those stars.
The image of the spinning black star swallowing up all the light emitted by the surrounding stars was blurry, but it had an overwhelming presence.
How much light would it have swallowed and rotated?
self-
At some point, all the stars, including the black one, and the black mist surrounding those stars began to be sucked into one place.
And there was Zion, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
‘ I’ll be able to climb to 1 star soon.’
Shion slowly opened his eyes and raised his body drenched in sweat, clenched and opened his fists.
Black Seongha.
It was a power that only Zion himself could handle in the world, and it was a foreign power that negates everything else.
Normally, he should have climbed earlier, but it was delayed due to the attack that occurred when he opened his eyes in the body of Zion Agnes.
No matter how powerful the Heukseongha was, it was more influenced by the soul than the body, but to stop the assassins with an untrained body, it had no choice but to overdo it.
In addition, due to the battle with the knights who betrayed him, his recovery was slow.
Of course, they were all fully recovered now.
‘ The problem is with this body itself… … .’
There was no disagreement that Heukseongha was the strongest power, but the load on the soul and body was also considerable.
However, the body of Zion Agnes who had to deal with it was not only terrible, it was even wonderful.
It’s amazing how you walk.
‘ It might have been easier if there was even that.’
Shion, thinking of his ‘weapon’ for a moment, shook his head.
It was meaningless to think about things that did not exist here.
For now, the only way would be to constantly train.
‘ More than that, the bite will come sooner than later.’
After training, Shion thought as she walked towards the door.
The attack on Chimseonggung that took place a few days ago.
Not only did the attack fail, but there was no reaction to it, so the body of those who took the lead must have been quite sweet.
In addition, the news of all contacts was cut off, so it would have been even worse.
at that time.
“ The Prince.”
Fredo’s voice came from outside along with a knock.
“ Come in.”
With Shion’s permission, Fredo carefully opens the door and enters the dance hall.
Fredo’s eyes were wet with emotion when he saw Shion immediately.
Sion’s body is covered in sweat.
It was incomparable to the past, when the only training was walking.
‘ Finally, His Majesty the Prince… … .’
In addition to that, the strength he showed during the attack on the Chimseonggung Palace and when he dealt with the knights, and the iron heart that cuts his throat at once.
It was hard to believe they were the same person, but Fredo was delighted with the change.
Only then will we be able to survive in this imperial castle.
‘ You have awakened the blood of the Agnes family.’
The only disappointment that Fredo had was that he could hardly see his face since fortress Shion lived in the gymnasium.
“ What’s going on?”
Fredo’s eyes were burdensome, so Shion quickly asked what he was doing.
“ Ah, a guest has arrived.”
“ Who?”
“ This is Priscilla-sama.”
“ Who is that?”
It was a name he had heard somewhere before, but he couldn’t remember it well, so Shion asked Fredo.
Fredo, who had a strange expression on his face, answered him.
“I am your fiancée.”
* * *
“You ’re a fiancee… … .”
After wiping off the sweat, Shion muttered as she headed to the drawing room where Priscilla was waiting.
Come to think of it, a prince would have had at least one fiancée.
If it was Sion Agnes’ fiancee, she would not have appeared in the ‘Chronicles of Plosimar’, so she had no choice but to know, as she had no memory of Zion.
‘ But why do you think you’ve heard it?’
Surprised by the contradictory feeling, Shion opened the door to the drawing room he had just arrived at.
Then, two men and a woman sitting on an antique sofa and tilting their teacups caught my eye.
Among them, the eyes of the woman who was thought to be her fiancée met Zion.
A woman looking at Zion with cold eyes that can even be called a snowy field.
‘ Now I see.’
At that moment, Zion knew where he had heard the woman’s name.
Priscilla Bamel.
He was a character mentioned several times in ‘The Chronicles of Flosimar’ .
A woman who will later be called ‘The Princess of Misfortune’ due to a certain incident.
He didn’t appear in the chronicle, so I don’t think he remembered it properly.
‘ That Priscilla Bamel must have been this guy’s fiancee.’
Her appearance identical to the one described in the text, especially her dark red eyes, made her convinced of such a thought.
“ Why are you here… … .”
“ Can you two go out for a while?”
When two men who seemed to have a temper looked at Zion and tried to open their mouths, Priscilla stopped them and gave them a congratulatory address.
The men went out of the drawing room without even responding to him.
Perhaps they were followers of Priscilla who were attracted to her beautiful appearance.
“… … .”
Soon after, Priscilla looked at Sion, who was sitting opposite her, without saying a word.
Shion looking into her eyes like that.
How much silence had passed?
“ It’s been a while.”
Priscilla spoke first.
A cold voice that matches his eyes.
It was a tone that could not be thought of as a fiancee.
“ Is that so?”
“ Yes. It seems like a lot has changed since I haven’t seen you before.”
With those words, Priscilla, who tilted her teacup, looked at Zion as if she was scanning her, and opened her mouth again.
“ From looking straight into my eyes… … Even what made me wait.”
It was very cocky for a nobleman to say to the royal family, but everything she said was true.
So far, Zion has never made her wait.
He always greeted her at the entrance of Chimseonggung, and he paid close attention to whether there was any inconvenience when staying at the palace.
Still, he never made eye contact with his head bowed as if to always show his fragile nature.
“ Then should I wait for you?”
Shion answered Priscilla’s words with a grin.
Priscilla’s eyes lit up at Shion’s attitude that she had never seen before.
Something is different.
“… … That’s not it.”
But she decided not to care, and after closing her eyes once, she immediately brought up the subject.
“ The reason I came here is to break up my marriage with Your Majesty.”
It was something I had been thinking about for a long time.
imprisoned prince.
The shame of the Agnes imperial family.
abandoned pure blood.
All of them were referring to Zion Agnes in front of her.
Befitting such titles, he had no power or ability, and he was a prince of life that was inferior to that of aristocrats.
Rather than that, the biggest reason for the breakup was that she didn’t like her.
Regardless of Priscilla’s own will when she was young, all that was meant to be a relationship was a promise between the families in order to establish a relationship with the imperial family.
“ If you don’t accept it, I… … .”
“ I do.”
“… … yes?”
“ I understand that there is no more business.”
After saying those words, Zion got up from his seat and headed towards the door.
From the beginning, Zion had no intention of worrying about an engagement or anything like that.
And he had no intention of getting involved in the events that Priscilla would later face.
It had nothing to do with him anyway, and the time allotted was limited.
However, there is one reason why I took the time to meet her like this.
I was wondering if Priscilla had anything to do with the recent attack.
Because the timing of the arrival was so coincidental.
‘ But Priscilla doesn’t know about the raid.’
Had I known, I would have commented on him or at least asked how he was doing.
Or, even subconsciously, Zion would have looked into his own body.
However, there was no sign of that in Priscilla.
So I didn’t want to waste any more time.
It was time for Shion to leave the drawing room after thinking like that.
“ The Prince.”
One of Priscilla’s followers, who was waiting outside the door, stood in front of Zion.
A man with a big head that is big enough for one head.
The clothes worn by such a man as if he was the son of a fairly high-ranking nobleman were very luxurious.
“ Go back in and apologize to Priscilla.”
Did you even hear the conversation inside?
The man looked down at Zion and opened his mouth in a coercive tone.
Sion asks while looking at such a man.
“ What do you mean?”
“ The fact that you stopped talking to Priscilla-sama and came out before the conversation was over. Priscilla-sama does not deserve that kind of treatment.”
“ Ha… … .”
A sigh escaped Zion’s mouth at those words.
It was Sion Agnes, not the other person, but a sigh of relief.
It was unimaginable for an ordinary noble to treat the imperial family like this.
How powerful would you be?
How much do you want to live?
Does that mean that even these guys are being ignored?
Did Zion’s sigh like that bother him?
Another follower, who was watching the situation from the side, nervously opened his mouth.
“ At least, no one deserves that kind of treatment from the imperial family who was abandoned by the imperial family. Isn’t it?”
A man who looks like a wizard with a skinny body and a robe.
“ I mean.”
Shion’s eyes were looking at the two who were blocking their way.
“ I don’t like having someone in my way.”
It started to bend slightly.
“ Ha… … .”
A sigh of absurdity came out of Priscilla’s mouth, who was staring at Shion’s back as she disappeared out of the door.
Prince Zion already knew that he had a lot of affection for him.
Therefore, she thought that the backlash would be severe, and she had also devised various methods to remove it.
But he couldn’t even speak a word, let alone use it.
Because Prince Zion had accepted the breakup before that.
‘ It’s like… … .’
I felt like I was driving.
Even if it wasn’t, it was unavoidable that my self-esteem was hurt.
The strange discomfort that came with him.
‘ I can’t. Even if the marriage is broken, it’s not like this.’
He had to take the initiative or at least end the conversation.
After thinking like that, Priscilla got up from her seat and walked towards the door.
Then it was time to open the door of the drawing room to call out to Shion, who had left first.
“ Um?”
A little far away from her eyes, Sion came into a confrontation with the two nobles she had brought.
Grego and Arto.
Each of them was the son of a prestigious noble family, and they were those who had the ability to rank among the followers who were chasing against her beauty.
Those who allowed them to travel with them because they were very useful.
However, the expressions of the two of them looking at Zion were very distorted.
‘ What?’
Was there any friction between them?
A face that looks like it’s going to explode at any moment.
In fact, one of Grego’s hands was moving towards Zion.
‘ No!’
With him, Priscilla’s eyes narrowed.
Once angry, Grego had nothing to see.
Even if Grego, who possesses the level of a superior knight, pushes him lightly, Prince Zion will surely be seriously injured.
“ Stop right now… … !”
At that moment, an urgent cry was about to come out of Priscilla’s mouth.
That moment.
she could see
190 cm tall and has the size and strength to be called a half ogre.
Quajiic!
The scene where Zion is thrown from the head to the floor.
