Episode 11. Escape (1)
The palace of the emperor is said to be the most splendid and luxuriously decorated within the vast imperial family. The garden, where a leisurely tea time takes place, is filled with rare flowers that the owner likes.
Emperor Yeo, the most senior member of the imperial family, her body deteriorated day by day. Princess Elina, who was supposed to be her solid successor, suddenly joined the warrior party.
A lovely prince loved by the empire. Karsen Arita. The sphere of influence he now had was absolute.
Despite the situation in which all sorts of speculative conversations were going on between the servants, it was as relaxed as this place. A well-looking man with brown hair gently put down the teacup.
A lot of snacks were set on the table, including macaroons and dacquoise, which are popular among men. In particular, the piece cake topped with strawberries is the most appetizing.
In the warm sunlight, Karsen’s blonde hair shimmered. There was an anecdote that everyone did not know about when a painter who came to paint his portrait shouted that an angel had descended.
“The weather is nice. Derek, isn’t it?”
“… I mean.”
Carsen laughed with a kind smile. He liked ‘Derek Ortini’, the prince of the Duke of Ortini, as if he were his older brother. At least in terms of looks.
“How far have you been talking? Ah. Until the hero sent me a letter.”
“… I’m really envious. Her Highness, the Crown Princess Her Highness didn’t send me anything. It seems that the hero really has your highness in mind.”
“A. Brother, don’t be sorry. It’s because my sister is so busy.”
Karsen, who had a triumphant expression on his face, quickly offered comfort. But Derek’s answer did not give him peace of mind.
“Brother, do you have any concerns?”
“… That is.”
Derek stroked his hair and pursed his lips. He was reluctant to speak the shame of the family himself. Unable to contain his curiosity, Karsen urged his words.
Actually, he wasn’t showing off, but Karsen was excited. A person who I usually thought was perfect would look like that. Somehow, I felt a sense of superiority.
“Brother, what the hell is going on? Could it be that you can’t tell me something?”
At Karsen’s urging, Derek let out a deep sigh. If you keep asking, you’ll find out someday. It was better to just speak with your own mouth.
“I think my sister has love affair.”
“… Ah.”
Hearing the answer he wanted, Karsen shut his mouth tightly. Derek’s expression was worse than I thought.
Originally, love stories are the most fun. If that statement was true, there was a strong possibility that rumors would spread in the social world.
If it wasn’t for the hero who appeared miraculously, he might have gotten into an arranged marriage with such a crazy woman. Of course, it’s someone else’s business for Karsen.
“Brother, don’t worry too much. Women sometimes lose their eyes for a moment, don’t they? But it will come back eventually.”
Carsene spoke in the most friendly tone. But that was also what I was saying to myself.
“So. Who is the Youngshik who stole the heart of the ‘Princess Ortini’ of the world?”
Karsen with a mischievous smile asked Derek. But he still looked troubled.
“… Ha.”
At last, Derek sighed. Karsen wanted to stop, but it was impossible given his character who couldn’t stand being curious.
“… Are you sure you are not spiritual?”
“It’s too embarrassing to even talk about it.”
I was able to understand because of those words. Karsen, who felt her superiority, kindled a spark of sympathy for her a little.
The Duke of Ortini has two princesses. One was an illegitimate child, but had excellent magical properties, and the other was a daughter, but living a dissolute life was famous in the social world.
I heard that he goes in and out of the window with a group of people following him. I like to gamble, so it’s quite a headache.
“Wait a minute.”
“… ….”
Derek put his hand to his forehead as if his head was pounding. Feeling apologetic for some reason, Karsen turned her words around to lighten her mood.
“Ah! Come to think of it, I was able to let that man go with the wisdom of my older brother the other day.”
Derek, barely getting off the topic, let out a small sigh of relief. He answered, grabbing the cookie from the plate.
“That was entirely the work of Your Highness. What have I done?”
“hahahaha. If it wasn’t for my older brother’s advice, it would have only ended up as a plan.”
“He will only harm you. You know.”
“Of course. Of course.”
You can never ignore a man’s intuition.
I knew at least that the hero and the princess were interested in strangers. To those otherworldly people who are of no help whatsoever. The two men were ashamed of that fact and couldn’t understand it.
Derek looked around and lowered his voice. He opened his mouth very carefully.
“Are you sure you handled it properly?”
“Of course. I sold it to Changgwan.”
Carsene smirking. It looked really refreshing and refreshing.
But Derek’s expression became subtle.
“… Does that mean you didn’t kill him?”
“Wouldn’t that be more painful?”
Derek’s expression twisted in dissatisfaction. But as if that was only for that moment, he smiled again.
“Your Highness, I must have said last time that I should end my life.”
“… Brother, are you angry with me right now?”
Derek lowered his tail at the sight of Karsen.
“That’s not it. It’s because I’m anxious. If you ever come back….”
Only then, Carsene smiles again.
“Brother, you are very worried. Rest assured, you will never come back. Unless you die and become a ghost.”
“… There is nothing I can do about it if Your Highness says so. I will believe you.”
After that, the two men continued to chat. They started to slowly look around after having a conversation without knowing how much time had passed.
“It’s already time like this. Your Highness, then I will withdraw.”
“Didn’t you say you don’t have to lower your head? Brother, we will soon become a family.”
The best seat for the most noble man in the empire.
Gukseo.
Derek gave a gentle smile. It was a desire he could not hide.
Karsen liked that low desire. Derek also liked Karsen’s stupidity. The day was passing by without knowing that each other was taking advantage of each other.
⁕⁕⁕
After parting with Derek, Karsen returned to his bed immediately. Having dismissed his attendants with his grumpiness, he immediately called for his limbs.
“Rika.”
At Karsen’s call, his knight immediately appeared. The pink-haired woman in her eyes answered in a rather firm voice.
“Your Highness, did you call?”
“Have you deciphered that?”
Rika lowered her head at the somewhat sharp question. She didn’t have to ask more. It meant failure.
“Can’t even do one of them right?”
“Sorry.”
Muttering that it was useless, Karsen listened to the letter again. When I saw the really worthless paper, I started to get really angry.
A woman who should be the warrior who will save her world and her own Bride . A letter from Inna Yoo.
The biggest problem is that the recipient is not himself. In fact, at first she thought she was graffiti.
“You must have learned the imperial language.”
Ironically, the address was in the imperial language. On the one hand, the pride of the warrior who quickly mastered the imperial language rose.
Karsen was furious. He was so willful. How could he hate himself.
She writes a letter to a man other than herself. She didn’t understand common sense.
The hero who saved the world, which often appears in fairy tale books, marries a prince and has a happy ending. It was Karsen’s long-standing romance. Or fate.
How can a warrior who appeared for himself do that?
He was the number one groom in the empire. He was next to Derek.
Karsen looked at the contents of the letter again. The hard-to-understand characters looked like pictures or scribbles.
She found it difficult to interpret even though she took quite a bit of time and effort.
“Okay. Just burn it.”
“Your Highness, that is!!”
Carsen approached the fireplace with the letter. He shouted at Rika, who came to stop him in surprise.
“Do you know what I mean by what I am about to do? Think of your family.”
Rika flinched at his words. She was helplessly pushed away by Karsen’s feeble strength.
“I don’t need this.”
The stationery is burned in the roaring fire. Only then did Karsen, who was relieved, straighten his twisted breathing.
“We won’t be able to see each other forever anyway.”
Karsen closed his eyes and remembered.
She will eventually become the woman she is.
Ah-ah- my hero.
A small smile appeared on Karsen’s face as he looked at the fireplace with a nonchalant expression. Unaware of the guilt in Rika’s eyes looking at the same place.
⁕⁕⁕
As soon as I came out, the escort I was waiting for led me to the inn. It was used for each room in a building that was not too bad than I thought.
Maybe I should say that welfare is surprisingly good. Except for the basem*nt. Photosynthesis seems to have to give up.
“Don’t like it too much. Because everything goes into debt. Even the food you eat now.”
The gentleman sitting next to me took a picture of the salad with his fork. Is it a diet or what?
“So how did it go?”
“What is it?”
“What, didn’t you? With the boss!!”
As if the meek man was frustrated, he slammed his chest. At that, the food he was eating almost came out again.
The situation automatically replayed in my head. I tried to hide the reddening of my face as much as possible.
“Ah~. What are you doing?”
“Yeah. Did this kid have something? The smeared lips are all visible.”
It’s a teasing tone, but somehow it felt wary. For some reason, it seems closer to displeasure than borderline.
“… Really? When we work together, the atmosphere is so damn good.”
“That is.”
I have nothing to say. It’s honestly my fault.
“Sorry about that.”
“No. To be honest, what did you and the boss do? I can’t believe you came out unharmed.”
“What do you mean?”
Then the mild-mannered man smiled and answered. It’s as if he didn’t know that. How do i know that
“Your boss hates men.”
“Are you misogynistic?”

No way. Doesn’t seem like it at all.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
No. Why does it keep playing that passionate kiss.
“What do you think will happen to those who have an accident in the room like you?”
“How does it work?”
I swallowed my saliva at his words as he spoke quite seriously. If so, maybe it will be sold somewhere else.
“I’ll give you a Pun.”
“A punishment?”
“Okay. What you don’t know is medicine.”
I looked around. There were many men who were in the same situation as me. However, the number of staff keeping it was significantly less.
“I think surveillance here is weaker than I thought. I think we can run away.”
“Can’t you see the magic tool up there? In the first place, the location of the accommodation is close to a forest where people are rare. Dangerous.”
“Is there no way to contact the outside world at all?”
“There is nothing but guests.”
I see. It’s not easy either.
“Do your best. If you can But it will be much quicker to pay off the debt. Maybe?”
“… I’ll never pay it back. Has your brother paid off everything?”
“I am here because I like myself?”
Oh my God. It was surprising, but I decided to respect it roughly. Because I am the most urgent.
My debt is close to 50 million gold. I assure you, no matter how hard I try, it will be difficult to repay. It’s not even my debt in the first place.
“I’m done eating, so I’ll get up.”
“Uh-yes.”
I got up to return the bowl. Still, it was fortunate that the gentleman was judged to be a good person.
As I turned around to say hello again, I saw his face.
But his expression.
It was even more distorted than when I was talking about a prickly man behind my back.
