Episode 105
way back (2)
“Your Excellency Count! This place… … !”
“Get out of the way, no. Say it. I said I came.”
I replied with a hard expression to the soldier who stopped me in front of Lee Yu-ra’s visit to the main palace.
Seeing me as if I had already become a celebrity in the royal palace, I did not forget the honorific title of Count.
The soldier guarding the door took a look at my expression and told the lady-in-waiting that I had come. Thanks to that, I was able to meet Lee Yoo-ra without waiting long.
The bridge of her nose, which had been elated in just one night, stood up in the sky.
“What happened?”
“What happened? Did you just deal with the weird guys in my bedroom last night?”
A smile lingered on Lee Yu-ra’s lips as she pretended not to know and shuddered, but subtly showed her breasts.
He sat down on the opposite side of the sofa where she was sitting.
“Does that mean they are intruders?”
“yes. I am a victim.”
While saying the word victim well, she stretched.
Her expression, her eyes quivering and her mouth twitching, makes me feel refreshed.
“The victim looks cool.”
“It was an event of its own in a cramped car… … yo. this.”
She glanced at me and wiggled her index finger for a moment.
After hearing the whole situation from Lee Yu-ra, a picture is drawn of what happened.
One passed out with his neck caught in a crack in the door. Except for one of the other three, it is said that she was just picking up a sword, so she got egged here and there by her skewer… … .
The woman who looked straight into my eyes in front of me and crossed her fingers near the desk was a young lady from the Lee family, famous for their samurai songs. They expressed their condolences to the intruders who would have imagined a normal princess.
The first person called the kingdom’s first sword was on a level similar to mine, but it was obvious that the skill of the leader of the knights who followed me as an escort was about the same as or slightly less than that of her right before Xford.
“So how did you clean up? Did you process in your own name? The fainted knights struggled, without any of these things?”
“That’s natural, right? Why put someone else’s name on what I did?”
“… … That’s what a princess is like.”
“You did a good job, right?”
“you’re right. So stop staring at me now.”
At my answer, she stopped squirming and ran her curly hair through her hair once.
“Hmmm… … , Anyway, I handed it over to the royal adviser for interrogation. Is it that Fernando? It was clear that the author who said it was instigated. They say that the Aragonese dialect came out during the torture.”
I don’t know what kind of torture it might have been, but it must have been an unsophisticated method since it was medieval, so I stopped delusion.
“I’m done talking, so I’ll go.”
“Already? Stay a little longer… … .”
“I have heard all that is necessary, so there is no reason for me to stay. See you again in the evening.”
“excuse me… … !”
As I was about to get up from my seat leaving her with regret, her voice caught my feet.
On the table I looked back at, Lee Yu-ra was reaching out her hand toward me.
She opened her mouth for a moment and narrowed her eyes before continuing to speak cautiously.
“… … The way you practice swordsmanship. Do you remember?”
I didn’t know what to say, so I narrowed my eyes for a moment and thought about it.
It’s not easy to guess what the methods I showed in front of Lee Yoo-ra were talking about, not just one or two.
“It’s a way to contain emotions.”
“ah. That’s what you said. Did you have any problems?”
“… … Actually, I tried it this time.”
He moved his mane gently and sat back down in front of her.
“I must have told you that this is not a recommended method. Did you still use it?”
* * *
Lee Yoo-ra looked at the eyes of the golden sun staring at her quietly.
The long, torn golden pupils shone incomprehensibly for their true intentions.
It still looks dangerous… … .
Are you trying to catch the mood?
Even if she tried to rebuke her for not listening to her advice, she couldn’t stop because there was something she really wanted to ask.
Lee Yu-ra, who was talking for a while, quenched her throat with the car in front of her.
I don’t know if it’s tea or saliva that goes down my throat.
“I couldn’t help it. He seemed to be a strong opponent, so I threw a gamble. If I had known it would be so weak, I would not have used it in the first place.”
“The first move is a gamble… … .”
He stroked his mane for a moment, then continued.
“Not a very good choice. I would have been able to handle it more cleanly if I had judged the opponent by facing each other at least.”
“… … That’s what I regretted while reviewing it, how surprised I was by those who suddenly came in while I was sleeping last night-! And all the knights guarding it are gone, but I thought they were all monsters at the level of knights.”
Seeing Lee Yoo-ra sigh, Geum-taeyang nodded.
Silence passed between the two for a while.
The first to speak was Golden Taeyang, who rose from his seat.
“So, do you have any more questions? I’ll see you in the evening anyway, but if you’re not there, I’ll leave.”
Lee Yoo-ra seemed to be worried for a while as he watched the back of Taeyang leaving the seat, but eventually opened his mouth.
“for a moment… … ! really last. Just one more.”
At her question, Taeyang Geum turned her head for a moment.
I caught him a second time, but he wasn’t angry.
I just looked at Lee Yoo-ra’s face intently.
I wonder how you came to ask such a thing to a man who is trying to kill his emotions… … .
“A sword that holds emotions… … . Is there any way to make better use of it?”
A question appeared on his face as he stared at Lee Yu-ra.
Golden Taeyang, who narrowed his eyes for a moment as if organizing his thoughts, replied as if it was nothing special.
“It’s not a recommended method, but if you want to use it, recall your memory by recalling what you’ve been through.”
“… … Remember?”
“Emotions are based on memories. That’s why the deeper the memory is embedded in the brain, the stronger the emotion. You just have to put those feelings into your sword.”
“… … thank you. I will definitely repay you later.”
“Well, if you don’t have memorable emotions, you’ll be talking nonsense. Then, I’m off.”
I looked at the back of the leaving golden sun.
When she tried to contain her emotions last night, as he said, ‘the feelings that remain in my memory’ were not included.
It was clear that unless you were a genius enough to deceive your feelings with extreme self-suggestions, you would not be able to escape from his words.
In the room he left, Lee Yu-ra relaxed her whole body and leaned against the sofa she was sitting on.
“Memories, memories… … .”
The soft touch of the sofa embraced her, but she did not feel comfortable.
“If it’s based on memories, why would you… … .”
In her mind, the duel between Count Alfonso and Golden Sun played again.
his sword… … .
It was so painful.
* * *
After the operation failed, Fernando was detained at his home.
A day passed, a week passed.
The news that was delivered to him was a series of desperate things.
first day.
-Isabel chose Ivan as her husband. With her own hands, she performed the ceremony of appointing him as a knight at the banquet hall.
-The news of Fernando’s confinement spread throughout the royal castle.
That night, I sat blankly on the bed and looked in the direction of the banquet.
Second day.
-The Royal Knights of Aragon, who had followed Fernando to escort, caused a commotion. At the same time, he formally demanded the return of the prince.
-King Leopold rejected this with a single stroke.
On this day, Fernando’s residence was moved to the deepest garden of the palace.
third day.
-King Leopold ordered the knights to return home, but they were rejected.
-Without the means of deterrence such as the captain and the prince, the knights began to rampage even more.
Saying that there was a risk of escape, he was isolated from Count Armada, who was like his right hand.
After that, all contact was lost.
Fourth day… … .
-King Leopold, unable to bear the unrest of the Aragon Knights, ordered Ivan to subdue them. At the same time, the declaration of war against Aragorn and the date of the wedding were confirmed three days later.
On this day, Ivan’s Ain Knights killed the Royal Knights of Aragorn, which was raised by his second brother.
Even on the fifth day.
Even on the sixth day.
Confined deep in the palace, there was nothing Fernando could do.
seventh day.
-Isabel and Ivan’s wedding took place.
-At the same time, Adria declared war on Aragorn.
‘thud! thud! thud!’
Sitting on the bed and looking up at the night sky blankly, Fernando turned his attention to the sound of knocking on the door.
“It is His Majesty’s last mercy to the one who was once a suitor.”
A picture was hung in a room with only a bed and a desk and chair.
Looking at the painting dotted with pure white and black, Fernando couldn’t blink his eyes.
His eyes started to get red as he stood there blankly staring at the painting.
Red solid lines rose one by one around the transparent cornea, which soon became cloudy.
In the picture, Isabelle is smiling.
Wearing a white dress, her face is brighter than ever.
It was the smile that Fernando had sworn to make when he received the flower wreath from the young woman.
Next to her stood Ivan in a black tuxedo.
The picture vividly captures his face as he touches the area around his mane as if he is awkward.
i wanted to be there
why didn’t i
Was it too greedy to just want you to stand next to me?
“Isabelle… … . Answer me.”
I touched her face in the picture with my fingertips.
It was a face that seemed to come alive at any moment, but the cold and rough texture of the paint was felt.
Involuntarily, I folded my fingertips.
Where did you go wrong?
If I hadn’t killed my brothers, I could have come more often… … .
If so, would I have been able to stand next to you?
Did you smile for me instead of for the kid standing next to you?
I thought I’d make you a queen
He leaned against the wall and sat quietly.
i just… … .
My chest hurt so much.
His breath, which had begun to ache, soon began to stir.
i wish i was with you I made a kingdom just for you, but was there no need for such a thing?
They say that when laughter exceeds the limit, tears come out. And vice versa.
A laugh escapes from his mouth.
without a break.
A maddening laugh rang through the room.
After laughing for a while, he suddenly stopped, tilted his head, and looked at the painting hanging above.

Just.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just look
There was still nothing I could do.
His time ended here.

“… … I’m not actually married, so don’t get me wrong.”
I looked at Lee Yoo-ra, who was wearing a pure white dress in front of me.
Raising her sharp eyes, she slammed the hem of her dress and glanced at me.
I haven’t seen Lee Yoo-ra, but I haven’t corrected it.
It was because reading the notification window that popped up in front of me was the first thing.
-The demi-humans have succeeded in being incorporated into the mainstream from a minority in the kingdom.
– Clear conditions have been achieved.
-Ivan’s thoughts admire your abilities.
-Acquire the activated skill Ainhwa [A Rank].
When I thought about it, the reward should have ended here. However, unexpected notifications popped up one after another.
– Fernando feels deeply defeated by you.
– The Greedy Marauder (B rank) is activated.
-Would you like to slot Fernando’s characteristic Heir to the Throne [A rank]?
NTR WIN!!!
