Love Letter From The Future chapter 668

668 – 8. Will (42)

‘Kill Dalton Alpenhauser.’

If it had been said by an ordinary person, it would have been dismissed as a joke, but I was Ian Perkus. Although it has become rare in recent years, the man was called ‘the mad dog of the academy’ for his various eccentricities.

There was no such thing as impossible. The facial expressions of those in the crowd that instantly hardened proved this.

Of course, I didn’t say it without thinking.

“Isn’t Dalton the person who most directly caused the Hasta family’s tragedy? He may be able to hold himself accountable for the current situation.”

“Well, but behind it was the imperial family…” ….”

“It’s not the imperial family.”

My voice was firm as I responded to Senior Siene’s cautious rebuttal. When the story of the ‘Imperial Imperial Family’ came up, not only the princess who was looking for no reason, but also Leto’s slanted gaze caught a faint look.

As if he was going to wait and see what he said.

I immediately resumed my persuasion in a heated voice.

“Isn’t Dalton’s lord Princess Iris?”

“And he is unconscious right now.”

Knock, knock.

Leto, like a close friend, quickly understood what I meant. He quickly added commentary to my explanation and was tapping his index finger on the table, forming a certain rhyme.

This probably means that the possibility itself will not be denied.

The princess and senior Siene, who are famous for their intelligence, seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, and their expressions became even lower.

“Someone has to take responsibility anyway. Of course, the imperial family cannot take full responsibility for this situation…….”

“Do you want to cut off your tail?”

Tap.

Leto’s palm fell down on the table and the periodic sound stopped. Although Leto had a somewhat puzzled expression on his face, Shien and his senior Shiene immediately began examining the feasibility of my plan.

“This is a problem that Iris cannot take responsibility for. The incident has become too big, and it will take quite a bit of pain to cut off the head of the person who inherited her dragon blood.”

“If it were at the level of my uncle, it would make an appropriate sacrifice…….”

Senior Siene’s expression as he talked about having to kill his uncle was indeed subtle. I would be lying if I wanted to, but I knew the true nature of the Alpenhauser family.

A born businessman and politician.

You could tell just by looking at Dalton’s attitude towards Senior Siene. At least now he is no longer Siene-senpai’s ally.

Then there was only one answer.

Isn’t eliminating political enemies a specialty of a copyist?

Of course, as with most plans, there were more than one or two problems to be solved. You can tell just by looking at the flame burning in senior Siene’s silver pupils.

“…… “I guess you want to relieve Celine Hastur of her responsibilities.”

What should I say about the eyes of Shiene-senpai who mutters like that?

It looked even sharper compared to the bandage soaked in blood and pus. It was natural that I would be thinking of the enemy who had taken the life of one arm, one leg, half of my face, one eye, and my twin brother.

I wonder if Senior Siene will betray her.

I thought about it for a moment, but I had already given up. Since he wasn’t someone I could fool anyway, I let out simple words of acknowledgment.

“Yes, that’s right.”

There was no reply. It was just that Shiene-senior was quietly avoiding my gaze and was deep in thought. In fact, this would have been the same for Shien.

The Empire’s second princess, Iris.

One of the two people closest to the next seat of power, he was also close to Shien. Even though she is her half-sister, she would think it would be unexpected for her to stab her older sister in the back with her own hand.

Yes, I definitely thought so.

“Senior Siene, didn’t you just say you would listen to anything you say?”

Shien was scolding senior Shiene in a voice that did not waver at all.

“Of course, but…” …..”

“Iris is in a coma, and has been abandoned by the Alpenhauser family… Who can protect you? And what about Senior Luna?”

At the same time, no trace of emotion was reflected in Shien’s eyes as she sipped her tea with an elegant posture.

Like a scientist explaining self-evident facts.

“Aha, it looks like you have a hidden connection. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have shown my feelings in such a foolish way…….”

“Well, it can’t be!”

Senior Siene ended up screaming at her calm speculations.

The body that was shaking causes a gentle tremor. Soon, the woman’s eyes slowly turn to the floor.

It was a declaration of surrender.

“My master will always be Her Highness Iris.”

“Not anymore.”

If she had been Siene’s senior in the past, she might have been able to hold on a little longer.

That was the end of the woman’s defiance. Her small shoulders dropped, and then senior Siene, who had a gloomy look on his face, nodded slightly.

It was immediately after that that Shien smiled the bright smile that I remember from her.

“Then let’s kill him!”

The words he spoke did not seem pure at all.

He tried to stab his sister in the back without hesitation, so it seemed like the imperial family was just as he had heard.

It was a time when hopeful observations were gradually accumulating.

“Ian, you seem to have quite the brain for someone like you… “You don’t think she can save Celine that much, do you?”

It was a tone that did not contain any particular emotion.

In fact, it was said as if it was nothing, so I had to look at Leto with doubt.

What are you talking about?

The person who was probably more worried about Celine’s safety than anyone else was Leto. Nevertheless, the sight of him predicting Celine’s end with tired eyes was calm.

To be more precise, the expression ‘I gave up’ would be more appropriate.

“It’s already too late. From the moment you join the Dark Church, you will be labeled as a ‘traitor to humanity’… “You even touched the imperial family and the southern ten kingdoms.”

I tried to add something to that statement, but then I sighed and closed my eyes.

Because I didn’t want to act like a child again.

“I know. But just in case, I just want to secure at least a small possibility.”

“If that’s what you want.”

Leto then clapped his hands together. The whites of the eyes, where the veins had burst, looked particularly red.

“The detailed plan will be handled by two people who are skilled in political maneuvering… I will continue my research first. “As long as you don’t do anything strange, you can secure a certain level of safety.”

In this way, the division of roles was completed.

In the mouth, Ian Perkus. Established, Fifth Princess Sienne and Siene Alpenhauser. Lastly, the study was done by Leto Einstern.

If the situation doesn’t change suddenly, this will be the best I can do.

Yes, as long as there is no drastic change.

I don’t know why, but I was never able to shake off the pain in my heart. Until the very end.

“You’re not going around doing useless things, are you?”

These were the words spoken by the saint who arrived first in the private room of the temple where we temporarily stayed.

Perhaps due to her recent overwork, her saintly voice naturally became a little sharp. Even the light pink eyes that glared at me reminded me of an interrogator interrogating a criminal.

Of course, I couldn’t even make a grumbling sound. Because it was a body full of sins.

I was just playing it off.

“What am I doing? “If he overdoes it, he vomits a bucket of blood.”

“Yes, I did. However, we overexerted ourselves and ended up in this situation.”

Hmm, I cleared my throat and glanced to the side.

I had nothing to say. It occurred to me once again that as my priest, lover, and wife, the saint had the right to abuse me.

Even if they tried to confine me to the intensive care unit, there was nothing they could do. If my position had been the opposite right now, I would have done whatever it took to stop the saint.

It was fortunate that they were allowed to go out.

But no matter how cold it was, the saint was a saint.

When I showed my obvious dejection, a small sigh escaped the saintess’ mouth as she stared at me with her arms crossed. Eventually, the woman’s arms spread out.

“Come here.”

It was a sober tone, but the meaning was clear. So I had no choice but to smile even more awkwardly.

“Now? I’m not a kid…….”

“Quickly.”

But how can we overcome the voice of the saint who calls us again?

Finally defeated by her temptation, I hesitated and buried my face in her arms. The soft feeling of motherly love, the smell of the woman’s flesh that she misses, and the dizzying sense of relief that makes her lose her mind for a moment.

The gentle whisper of the saint who embraced me fills my ears.

“Ian, you look so nervous. At least the first one I’ve seen.”

“…… Is it?”

“Yes, anxiety is a kind of poison. “It gradually paralyzes your thinking and ultimately leads you to make mistakes.”

For some reason, my eyelids slid shut. I was a little startled as all the strength in my body went away.

I wonder if I have given this much strength to my life.

What the saint said was right.

“You don’t necessarily have to do it. I, no, we… I’ll try my best. “Now close your eyes and rest.”

I couldn’t help but sigh and swallow my laughter.

The saint was right. I ultimately failed, and I may have been a child who thought that if I persisted, things would work out somehow.

Should I just give up?

Do I have to become an adult like that?

The moment when I fell asleep peacefully in the arms of a saint with various thoughts in mind.

“Ian.”

I suddenly came to my senses at the sound of a voice. Perhaps it was an illusion, but in a dark space, I saw a woman with reddish-brown hair. Light green eyes, black robes with ominous blood-red embroidery.

Unfamiliar memories overflow. I wanted to know at least a little bit about what was going on, but a fierce headache interrupted my thoughts. There is only one thing to know.

She was smiling.

“It’s already too late.”

A short dream, when I opened my eyes again, it was already the next day.

I woke up with a gasp and noticed a note on my bedside table.
