55. Commander of the Abyss Corps (4)
Tap-
Just before her twilight and the aftermath of her marquis’ fierce fight overtook her Rebecca, her hand pulling her.
“Your Majesty…?”
“..Isn’t it dangerous?”
Rebecca believed in her own body and stayed still, but the emperor spoke with a frown as if rebuking Rebecca.
‘Since when did you take care of me?’
She was the emperor startled when Rebecca, who suddenly felt a sense of alienation from the emperor who had become kind to her, inadvertently withdrew his hand from him.
“..It must be funny to be a father now..”
Rebecca bit her lip at his words and said.
“..To be honest, it’s true. I don’t know why His Majesty, who pretended not to know even when I was in danger of being assassinated, is now acting like this..”
Her emperor looked at her with her lonely eyes at her words of her candid Rebecca.
“I’m sorry. I don’t have anything else to say except this. It’s all because I’m not good at it. .
My small step spreads into a huge wave that determines the empire. Because of this, the children loved by the father cannot be seen unless it is a public matter.
Also, do you know how it felt to have to watch the children from the same boat kill each other?”
Embarrassed by the emperor’s sudden confession, Rebecca was taken aback.
“That .. But there was a reason why Robert let him kill his younger siblings? That’s unbelievable! What’s wrong with that kid!”
The Emperor looked at Rebecca and said with a wry smile.
“If Jim had acted personally to prevent Robert from killing his brothers, he could have prevented the assassination right away.
But even if I had no intention of doing so, everyone would think the emperor was protecting the child.
Does that mean Robert and his supporters are going to sit still?
There is only one sun that can rise in the sky.. It was meant to happen someday… Even though it came with the most unexpected result…”
Rebecca shouted, clenching her fists at his words.
“But…! But…! Your Majesty… No, it’s strange for a father to just watch his children die!”
The Emperor looked at Rebecca with warm eyes.
“Yes…You were such a child. Just like your mother, you are kind and considerate of others..”
The emperor, who seemed to be thinking of someone, suddenly hardened his face and continued.
“..But keep in mind, Rebecca. After ascending the throne, the ‘human’ Rebecca does not exist. Only the ‘Emperor’ must exist.”
Rebecca was taken aback by the emperor’s sudden words.
“What do you mean?”
However, despite Rebecca’s reaction, the Emperor took the ring off his hand and put it in Rebecca’s hand.
“It may be sudden, but now you are the 38th Emperor of the Empire. ‘Rebecca von Midgard’ ..”
“Wait.. This is nonsense..”
Rebecca, who caught her hand by her emperor in her awkwardness, panicked and tried to remove her hand, but a light emanated from her hand.
Bun Zeok-
When the Emperor’s Seal was transferred to Rebecca, Rebecca lost her mind as the golden light spread across the top floor of the Sun Palace.
Tak-
The twilight member appeared before I knew it and picked up Rebecca who was about to fall unconscious.
“..He is the new emperor. Take him safely. Go to Bidong.”
Looking at him who has now become a ‘former emperor’ at the last command of the emperor who had served him all his life, the Twilight members paid their respects.
“…Chung!”
Shhh-
Rebecca disappeared leaving behind a wisp of wind, and the emperor, who was looking at the vacant seat at dusk, looked back.
“Do you really want to do that?”
Duk-duk-
As if to prove that he has reached the brink of becoming a grand master, Marquis Heinkel pulls out a sword from the body of the twilight leader, who is strong enough to die without even noticing the master level.
“I don’t have to be respectful anymore. I’m no longer emperor.”
“…I can’t..Can’t admit it. If you betray my faith until the end… I will shatter that hope..”
The moment when the Marquis was about to leave the Palace of the Sun in pursuit of Rebecca.
-Mjolnir- replica
Don’t fall out-
Quaaang-
A hammer of thunder fell from above his head, blocking the Marquis’ path.
“Your Majesty..! Are you going to stop me until the end!!”
Said the emperor holding a hammer made of bright yellow thunderbolts, firing crackling sparks from behind the marquis.
“Even though I couldn’t protect him when I was emperor.. Now, as a father, not an emperor.
“Do you think you can survive with only the traces of that god, not even a god incarnated!!”
As the enraged marquis charged at the emperor, spewing sword steel, the emperor smiled and said,
“As you said, it’s just a trace, but if it helps to protect my child, it’s perfect.”
Remembering the sensation that Thor, the god of thunder, Inhabited in his body one day, the emperor, holding the hammer, swung his arm.
Quaaang-
“Heo-euk…Heo-euk…”
A twilight member running to the ‘Imperial Secret’ located in a remote area of the imperial palace, leaving behind the center of the imperial palace, which became a mess due to the presence of the military commander still floating in the sky above the imperial palace.
Currently, one hand was clutching the bleeding abdomen and the other arm was carrying Rebecca.
‘The Princess.. No, I have to serve the Emperor..!’
There was a tentacle that suddenly stretched out towards him as he carried out the daunting task of getting the emperor to safety.
‘Surprise..!’
Pu-wook-
Normally, it was an attack that he would have avoided casually, but he couldn’t avoid it while holding Rebecca, so he got hit in the stomach by an unexpected blow.
“…!”
Chow-
After holding back his screams with superhuman endurance, he suddenly jumped out and slashed the Abyss Demon Beast that surprised him, then hurriedly moved his steps.
“Heo-euk…Heo-euk…”
Fortunately, except for the monster that attacked him in the first place, he crossed the Imperial Palace, which became a mess, and was not attacked until he reached Vigo.
He was greeted by the massive and massive door of Remarks located inside a building in a corner of the imperial palace.
In normal times, numerous guardsmen would be sternly patrolling, but he raised Rebecca’s wrist in front of the empty door, as if they were guarding this place even in an emergency.
“It’s good.. It’s… Emperor.. Please forgive the rudeness of touching the jade body..”
Flash-
The emperor’s seal on Rebecca’s finger he held up lit up.
Coo goo goo-
At the same time, as the heavy door of Vigo began to open, he let out a sigh of relief and bowed his head.
-Good job.
Pushuk-
Looking at the large tentacle that pierced through the center of his chest, before he could feel a sense of wonder, the swinging tentacle blew his head off.
-I’ve been watching wherever my top priority is… To get the emperor’s seal and remarks? You’re lucky…
Leaving behind the Twilight members who had lost their lives, a man wearing a black robe and exuding ominous energy spoke.
A man belonging to the Abyssal Church who watched the war while using invisible magic in the sky above the imperial palace.
He happened to see the first princess, the main target of the grand scheme, going somewhere unconscious in the Sun Palace side, and when he followed the members of the twilight group, he got an unexpected harvest.
-Thus, His coming is not far..!
With Rebecca floating in the air, still unconscious, with the man in the robe disappearing somewhere, Vigo fell into a lonely silence with only a corpse of a Twilight member lying in front of the wide-open Vigo.
At that time, outside the Imperial Palace.
“That’s not fun…”
There was a woman sitting obliquely on top of the corpses of Abyssal Demon Beasts piled up like a mountain.
It’s been several days since I came to the capital following Master’s traces.
Finding his traces in the vast capital was like finding a needle in the desert.
Ugh-
In the meantime, while sleeping at the inn, she felt a familiar energy in her senses.
It was the energy of the abyss that I had felt tired of living in the north for decades.
“Those monsters in the capital…?”
I think they said there was a barrier in the capital to prevent their invasion…
I wondered, but when Hayun came out on the street, the place already became a mess.
She swung her sword in a situation where those who had just undergone mutations and those who had already completed mutations were attacking normal humans.
-Self-flow of Heavenly Sword- Heavenly Kill
As I lightly drew my sword and swung it, all the monsters in the street were slaughtered in an instant.
“Hmm… Is that a problem?”
When Hayun looked up at the sky, she jumped up looking at the commander of the Abyss Corps, who was scattering dark red waves.
From noble mtl dot com
“…Wait…”
Inertially thinking of killing the commander of the Abyss Corps, Ha-yoon stopped at the thought that came to her mind momentarily.
‘In a situation where people are dying like this, if Master is there, there’s no way he can’t be seen.’
It was clear that his kind teacher would go out to kill that monster, unable to bear the death of innocent people.
After making that decision, Ha-yoon got down again and began to observe the situation.
“Would you like to be there this time?”
Traveling up and down the continent in search of her master, she longed for her master to appear with a smile.
How long had it been since you were just staring at the sky in the middle of the street?
When it was time to pile up her mountain with the corpses of witches who attacked her without knowing her cool, she thought.
“Another failure…”
If it was her own teacher, she would be able to kill a monster as big as that in one shot.. After waiting for a long time, Ha-yun was disappointed when her teacher showed no sign of appearing.
“It’s not fun.. Should I finish it now..”
When Ha-yoon decided to put an end to this situation,
Flash-
She raised her head.
I felt the light.
It can’t be wrong.
Familiar,
I miss you,
I want to see,
Master’s energy.
The center of the capital.
The pure white light rising from the imperial palace was the energy of her teacher, Chun Yuhyeon, whom she had longed to see even in her dreams for decades.
“Found it.”
If anyone saw it from the side, Ha-yoon, who had a terrifyingly tearful laugh, headed for the imperial palace with her trembling body.
“Finally… I’m going to see you… Master…♡”
