59. I miss you so much Tail
Chapter 59. I miss Tay so much
A girl was sitting in front of a desk in a gorgeous room.
The soft blonde hair was slightly disheveled.
The fair skin has turned pale.
She had hardly slept, and the dark under her eyes looked very unwell.
It was Chloe who had been very emaciated for several days.
Chloe bit her fingernails with a nervous expression and let out a short sigh.
“Ha ha.”
This was the first time since I came to the academy.
I couldn’t eat anything for a week because the thought of Tail made me sick.
Her Chloe was lost in her thoughts as she fingered her very skinny arm.
To be honest, Chloe thought her feelings for Tails were the affection she had for a friend from her long past who made her the sweetest memories.
Because I am always grateful and a precious friend.
It’s hard to find a friend like this, so it’s natural to be greedy.
I thought so.
So, later, when he was waiting for me at the monastery, I was thinking of giving him a title and a large seat.
So, like when she was a child, she wished to support herself.
By developing the power to protect him no matter what the threat.
Please wait until then, she hoped.
And she took it for granted.
That’s why I’ve been putting up with it.
From the moment she returned to the imperial palace, her mother and the chancellor constantly talked about the tail.
Even if I become a little lazy.
Even if you make a small mistake.
They took her hostage, her ‘tail’, and swayed her to go the way they wanted.
So she had no choice but to act as if she forgot her tail at some point.
She didn’t want to listen to the tail for blackmail anymore.
Little by little, little by little, it was around the time when the mother and the chancellor calmed down and stopped talking about Tails.
Tail suddenly appeared here at the academy.
That was also the moment when I saw him smiling brightly with another woman.
Chloe’s heart skipped a beat.
She collapsed helplessly.
All of her emotions, which she had endured so far, ate away at her.
It wasn’t just jealousy of her friend.
This.
It was love.
It’s absurd, but as a princess, she had hidden him, a commoner, in a corner of her heart with the feeling of love.
I’m not greedy because I’m a friend.
I was greedy because I loved her.
‘Why? Why are you realizing this now?’
From the very beginning, the button was wrong.
She bit her lip.
She didn’t know what to do next.
It was something that anyone who saw it would scream that I was crazy.
She sobbed a little.
‘I miss Tail so much.’
I missed you so much.
His soft hair.
Eyes containing warm energy.
A mild and charming smile.
After realizing her feelings, she became more desperate.
With his name on his lips.
I wish I could have my own face engraved in his eyes.
I wanted to see all of him and have it.
But at the same time I hated him too much.
A coldly shot word.
That look back then when he calmly turned around.
Even the eyes that were colder than ever.
The more I thought about it, the more my heart broke.
I didn’t know which one was the real heart.
It was hard for Chloe to come to her senses with her heart going back and forth every second.
In this situation, she heard one news that really bothered her.
At the time I thought about the news.
Smart smart.
Someone knocked on the door.
Chloe, who sensed who it was, swallowed her sigh.
“Come in.”
As the door opened, a man with a sporty hairdo on her rugged body entered.
As expected, it was Alan.
“It’s been a while. Sir Alan.”
“Yes. How are you so far? Princess.”
Alan’s words made Chloe laugh lightly.
She said it wasn’t okay.
Then she said with a smile.
“How did the person who told you to come eat her heart?”
Chloe smiled sweetly.
Her words were immediate.
You didn’t come on your own feet.
Please tell the person who bought it quickly.
This was it.
Whether she noticed it or not, Alan smiled softly.
“I heard that Pharaon Academy has so many talented people, so I came here because I was curious.”
Alan continued.
“And I just came from class.”
“Ah. How was it?”
Alan scratched her head at Chloe’s question.
“I don’t know for sure yet, but I do know one thing.”
Alan’s eyes turned to Chloe.
“That guy. He grew up well.”
Cheap.
From noble mtl dot com
Chloe’s stomach sank.
I immediately figured out who the guy Alan was talking about was.
She smiled lightly as usual.
But I could feel the corners of her mouth quivering.
“Tail…. Are you talking?”
“That’s right.”
Alan’s simple and clear answer made Chloe unable to speak for a moment.
‘What should I do?’
Chloe wasn’t sure how much they knew, from the Empress and the Prime Minister to Alan.
“The Princess.”
Then I heard Alan’s voice.
“Tell me honestly.”
His clear eyes met Chloe’s.
“I will not divulge it anywhere else. There is no change in the fact that my master is the princess.”
* * *
Chloe could not answer Alan’s words.
Alan, can I trust him?
Is there any guarantee that Sir Alan won’t talk to the Chancellor?
Wouldn’t talking make Tails dangerous?
When Chloe’s expression turned confused, Alan smiled softly and continued her words.
“If the princess wants, you can take the oath of a knight.”
A knight’s oath.
It was an oath to secure one’s position and chivalry.
If you fail to keep it, you could be deprived of your knighthood.
Like Alan, the more knowledgeable a person had about a knight, the more cautious they were about the oath of a knight.
Because with just one word, you can lose everything you’ve built up.
But if this is enough to write here….
‘Can’t I trust you?’
After thinking for a while, Chloe slowly opened her mouth.
“I met Tails.”
Alan nodded briefly.
“And he told me to leave the academy.”
Chloe’s expression was filled with pain as if the memory of that time had come to her mind.
“Why did you do that?”
He was the one who wanted to be close to Tail.
Alan wondered why Chloe had said that.
“Still, he is a child who helped me in a small way. When he was young, he was a commoner who was so important to his mother and prime minister that he was scolded.”
There was a bit of regret in Chloe’s eyes.
“I thought it would be better to go back than to be ruined here.”
But he was too hasty himself.
He seemed to have been conveyed to him differently from his sincerity.
After hearing Chloe’s story, Alan was silent for a moment.
And when he opened his mouth again, Alan spat out something really heavy.
“I was dispatched according to the opinion of Prime Minister Edward.”
“Jae-chan?”
Chloe’s heart sank.
And at the same time, her expression became pale.
Alan was silent for a moment when he saw her poker face fail and her expression finally collapsed.
Then, looking at Chloe with her pitiful eyes, she continued her words.
“The picture the Prime Minister is drawing is far-reaching. In it, the commoners who will become his chess pieces will be sacrificed for the sake of the generation.”
Chloe’s face hardened.
That was right.
Because the chancellor warned that a minority could be sacrificed for the sake of the majority or for the sake of a purpose.
He was as cool and cool as he was competent.
Alan, who was looking at her worriedly, opened her mouth again.
“If the princess cared about that commoner. I will try to convince you one more time.”
Chloe bit his lip lightly.
Even in this situation, there was nothing he could do.
Even at the moment when Tails could be threatened, he couldn’t do anything himself.
“… Please. Please.”
At Chloe’s words, Alan said he would understand and stood up from her seat.
Only then did Chloe realize that he hadn’t treated Alan properly.
“Ah. Come to think of it, I couldn’t serve tea.”
“It’s okay.”
Alan looked at Chloe with a warm gaze.
“Stop skipping food instead. Princess. I am afraid that it will cause problems.”
A part of Chloe’s heart tickled at the tone of warm concern.
“Okay. Okay.”
“Then take a break. Princess.”
After saying that, Alan bowed his head for a while and then left Chloe’s room.
* * *
After closing the door, Alan let out a laugh.
As expected, Princess Chloe has grown a lot.
Although she looks tired, he considered it a growing pain.
And at the same time he felt that he was right.
She couldn’t forget her tail after all.
And I seemed to have noticed the feelings about it now.
“Then we should check.”
The chancellor’s goal was to put Chloe on the throne.
But Alan’s goal was a bit different.
His goal was Chloe’s happiness.
She said she wanted to become emperor, so I just help. It was nothing more.
Is that why erasing the existence of Tail is not for the throne but for Chloe herself?
I had to check it out.
Alan’s eyes twinkled.
