Northern Princess-1
Sitting at a round table with only one teacup, I stare at the empty garden.
Theresia said that she would definitely break off the engagement and left the place as if she were running away.
Some would say that there was a twist between me and Theresia.
What kind of rumors will spread about the breakup between lovers who would have been good just a few days ago?
I think that Theresia will probably take care of it on her own.
If you want to save your brother, even if I don’t tell you otherwise, you’ll be careful.
Even so, her family will die…but it’s none of my business now.
I can’t save a person who will die anyway, and there’s no reason to save him.
“Is your fiancé gone? You died early.”
“Since you’re not my fiancé now, you can call me comfortably. Call me Miss Violet, whatever you feel comfortable.”
“Yes…?”
Renald, who brought the tea, had a dumbfounded expression, but he just smiled and shook his head.
Word of the breakup will soon spread.
However, there was nothing to be afraid of.
YuRia wouldn’t care about my affairs, and it was a marriage that my father was against in the first place.
On the contrary, he was genuinely happy about the breakup and didn’t know what gift he was going to give me.
Wouldn’t it be said that feelings such as love are nothing, and that he has finally come to his senses?
A sudden laugh leaked out, and I raised my teacup to cover my mouth.
The scent of chamomile fills the garden.
What I remember, having been through so much, was that Theresia loved this chamomile tea.
Let’s take a sip slowly, feeling the refreshing scent of tea, and the fragrance of herbs spread in the mouth.
“I will never come back here again.”
In 100 lives, there was never a woman named Theresia missing.
She was always my betrothed, and was often with me when I died.
However, this life will not be like that.
In his 101st life, he didn’t want to see a woman named Theresia anymore.
She was the first thing that reminded me of my past foolish life, so shouldn’t I forget it now?
While I was soaked in thought, my hand slowly tilted and soon water began to flow from the teacup.
“Bocchan, the car…”
“it’s okay. Because you do it on purpose.”
I think as I watch the chamomile tea dripping down to the floor.
Was chamomile tea effective for sound sleep?
I think I’ll probably get a good night’s sleep tonight.
very, long time ago

Maybe it’s because of the efficacy of chamomile tea, or it’s because I cut off the past that no one knows about.
When I woke up in the morning, my physical condition was so refreshing that I could say it was the best.
How long has it been since you fell asleep like this?
I used to have nightmares every time I lay in bed.
A dream in which you go through the deaths you have experienced in the past one after another, and at the end, head towards the death you have experienced recently.
I suffered at first, but now I’m fine, but now that I’m not dreaming, my body feels much lighter.
It would be nice if it was like this all the time.
I ran my messy hair around and ran it over my face with dry hands.
The ‘tomorrow’ experienced after returning was not always a very good day.
He once died on the second day, so it wasn’t good to relax until at least he saw the prince’s face.
But, well, that’s about it…
“Are you fine.”
It’s not okay, it’s very good.
Yuria was a family member, so I couldn’t separate her, but Theresia was someone I didn’t really need in my life.
The first thing she thought of as she started her 101st life was that there was no need to hold on to Theresia anymore.
You don’t have to struggle to live anymore.
There was no need to work hard for an unknown variable or for a wish that I had foolishly cherished.
The process is to cut out what needs to be cut, take what needs to be taken, and try to buy.
What will be at the end is my eternal rest.
Let’s think a little calmer.
With that thought in mind, when I dipped my hand into the water brought by the attendant, something came to mind with a cool sensation.
It was the same on the day of the return, but there was a schedule for the next day as well.
However, things were going to go quite differently than the day I remember.
‘Was the princess’s birthday party today?’
Mirajane Juliet, whenever I remembered the name, my expression would contort.
Unlike Yuria and Theresia, he was not bound by bad ties with her.
Rather, it was a little more affectionate, because it could be said to be a complicated relationship.
‘…Today, we are going to judge the guilty. Killing family, killing close friends, killing innocent people. I want to judge such a cruel person.’
The eyes of the woman who recited the declaration in a calm voice were swollen.
He could be seen even on his knees, so wouldn’t it be more correct to say that he cried a lot?
It’s a memory of when I was living with my mind for a while.
A memory that has nothing to do with the present, only I remember.
He also had a plan to use the princess if necessary.
There was also a life of loving her, but in the end, isn’t it one of the episodes where the memory is blurry?
In the first place, it was doubtful whether I could ever hold a human heart again.
What made me realize my true nature now was why I had no choice but to die such a miserable death.
The crown prince, and the woman who will be the link between them is the princess.
It’s a method I’d like to avoid anyway. I had the idea of approaching them if necessary.
“Are you going to have a separate meal today?”
After wiping the moisture off his face with a towel, Reynolds asked.
Come to think of it, we’ve been avoiding places where we all eat together.
It was because the memory of the time of death came to mind when we met face to face, and the rice was not properly passed over.
But now? There’s no need to avoid it.
I think by now, the story of yesterday’s breakup would have reached his father’s ears.
I had to wait and see whether he would smile with satisfaction or be scolded for doing the work alone.
I shook my head and opened my mouth.
“No, let’s eat together today.”
“…All right.”
Reynolds looked surprised at my sudden change in attitude.
People change overnight, and it would be a natural reaction to change like this.
Of course, I wasn’t surprised to see so many reactions like this.
It’s a very rare occurrence, but Renald even tried to assassinate me if I changed too much.
‘Still, Leonald is the best.’
But that’s when it’s a really extreme situation, and in a situation like this, the most useful thing is Renald.
First of all, isn’t it my exclusive butler?
Since I could use it as a means to find out what was going on in this mansion, I wasn’t going to dismiss him so easily.
“Is your father there too?”
“Yes, you are already eating below.”
“What would you say is late? No, I don’t even know if my tableware is there.”
When I went down the stairs to the restaurant, YuRia and her father were already cutting steak.
YuRia, who saw me, rolled her eyes in surprise, but I shrugged once and took my seat.
Fortunately, my utensils existed.
However, the attendants hurriedly moved to bring food, as if they hadn’t expected me to come down and eat.
So, while I was still looking at the table, YuRia wiped her mouth with a napkin and glanced at me.
“…it’s out of the way. I didn’t know it would come out like this. Didn’t I say that eating alone is more comfortable?”
“Shouldn’t we all eat together sometimes? I am also a member of the Taylor family.”
“I guess you weren’t aware.”
Tsk.
Apparently dissatisfied with my answer, YuRia clicked her tongue and looked away.
I expected such a reaction anyway.
However, it was true that he still cared about his father, who hadn’t said anything.
An ambiguous relationship in many ways. never directly killed me,
Wasn’t it always our Duke Taylor who indirectly approved of my death?
I was quite curious about how he would regard me in this life.
“Brother, I brought you a meal.”
Plates were placed one by one in front of me, and as I was about to touch the steak first, I heard a low voice in my ear.
“Yesterday, there was communication from the Violet family.”
“Is that so?”
“To break up the engagement without telling me. What are you thinking?”
I didn’t know how to speak directly without spinning around. However, it was comfortable to be this way.
Because my father told me that this was the only thing he was curious about.
YuRia was a little startled by those words and glared at me, but I calmly replied while cutting the meat.
“It didn’t fit. A person’s heart can’t always be the same, can’t it?”
“What did you say when I said that last time?”
“…there was a time when I thought my heart would last forever.”
What I said in the first round was contradictory in many ways.
I couldn’t remember all of this, so when I answered appropriately, my father’s eyes narrowed.
His shaggy beard always seemed to show his solid stature.
Even though I was approaching sixty, I stopped moving my hand and met my father’s eyes with his still sharp gaze.
“So now it sounds like you think that was wrong.”
“It’s an immature mistake.”
“I don’t like puns.”
As if trying to get inside me, the blue eyes I had inherited pierced my mind.
It was an eye with the same insight as if you were digging through it with your own hands.
Since it was my father who managed this duchy alone, I had never succeeded in lying to him.
Of course, he had no intention of telling lies even now, so his father blinked and swallowed a small saliva.
There were times when I thought that people’s hearts wouldn’t change.
However, that was only a very long time ago. Isn’t it reality that even my wish has changed right now?
“I’m glad if you think so. He wasn’t worthless.”
“I’m sorry for taking care of things without telling you. I will be careful next time.”
“done. How long has it been a day or two since you behaved immaturely? Besides, I didn’t like the Violet family from before. we are taylor Noble blood must not be scattered anywhere.”
When I nodded, my father nodded his head as if telling me to eat.
Conversing with my father has been a fairly easy axis for a long time.
I just think about my family, and if I appeal to the fact that I’m doing everything for my family, I’m the kind of person who would be satisfied with that.
However, in the past, my lingering feelings clouded my judgment.
So I got out of my father’s eyes, and that’s why my father also must have watched my death.
If you ask me if I hate it, I don’t hate it. I know now that I was stupid until my last life.
It didn’t mean that he really thought of his father as his father.
If you can use it, you can use it. After all, Taylor’s commander is his father,
Isn’t it clear that there will come a situation where the family lord’s power will be used in the name of family?
“By the way, isn’t there a party in the imperial family today?”
“you’re right. I was supposed to attend today. And… Robert too.”
As the meal was almost over, the father mentioned the party to be held today to YuRia.
It was also a story about waiting for it to come out.
The party I would have attended with Theresia originally,
I had to find a way to attend without a partner.
The father nodded at YuRia’s words, then opened his mouth again as if something came to mind.
“Have you decided on a partner?”
“There is no such thing as a partner. I am Sogaju, so there is nothing wrong with attending alone.”
“If so, you can attend with Robert.”
At those words, Yuria’s eyes widened.
Did you know you could make a face like that?
As I watched the conversation with interest, my father, who looked back at me, added,
“You don’t have a partner anymore, do you? As long as your sister is a cow owner, it’s not bad to show that you will support her as a partner. Surely you don’t like it?”
“No, thanks.”
“Then it’s decided, I won’t listen to anything else. Do you understand?”
Yuria looked at me coldly, but she couldn’t undo what her father had already decided.
Still, the father of the Taylor family and the owner of the small family, Yuria, would have no choice but to follow.
By the way, being a partner with Yuria, it was obvious that my body would be relatively free.
Then, wouldn’t it be possible to meet one more person besides the princess?
The woman who will attend the party today,
One of the women I remember who has nothing to do with evil.
I had a hunch that I might run into Adele Ygritte, the Grand Duke of the North.
Damn… wut is Cow Owner??😂😂
