156 – Imperial Castle (7)
“How dare your Majesty the Emperor!”
From Noble mtl dot com
Gardner shouted in anger, pushing Yuria to her floor.
Immediately afterwards, the sharp sound of metal clashing followed.
Gardner Adan’s shouts were heard several times, and swords clashed several times along with the sound of the wind.
The battle was rare and never ended.
Next moment.
“He ran away. Was the emperor’s self-immolation as expected?”
The sound of Leonhard clicking his tongue was heard.
Self-immolation. So Abama is not dead?
Fear soared. Terrible thoughts filled my mind.
If Abamama is not dead, we will now be hunted as traitors.
He was a person who never forgave. Never.
Anxiety dragged Yuria away.
It was such a terrible imagination that I felt like I couldn’t escape on my own no matter how hard I struggled.
Soon, Yuria heard a sound approaching her.
Yuria was startled and took a step back, but her soothing, sweet voice rang in her ears.
“Yuria. Are you okay. “She won’t be coming for a while.”
She felt a large, firm hand holding her up as she sat down.
There was a fishy smell of iron that she didn’t know who it belonged to, followed by the cold smell of perfume that filled her nose. It was a familiar scent.
Leonhard grabbed her round shoulders as she stood up and pulled her into his arms.
When the distance between them became close enough for her breath to mingle, his lips tangled in Yuria’s hair.
He lightly kissed her round ear, bit her small ear, and whispered softly.
“You can open your eyes now. “Everyone ran away.”
Yuria slowly opened her eyes. She then blinked her eyes a few times.
Transparent water droplets formed and flowed down the curve of my cheek.
Leonhard looked at Yuria like that and let out a sigh mixed with her anger.
I’m angry that it wasn’t me who made those tears fall.
“Are you okay? No, it won’t be okay. “For hurting her ear like this.”
When she heard those words, her tears welled up even more.
“Does it hurt?”
“Yes. It hurts.”
“A lot?”
Yuria shook her head slowly. Actually, her pain wasn’t that bad.
More than her pain, I kept thinking about losing the earrings he gave her as a gift.
“But why is your face like that?”
“I’m sorry. “Because my earrings were stolen.”
Even as she cried and cried, Yuria could not breathe properly.
Even though Leonhard came back and he was hugging me, I was scared.
What is the reason? He didn’t know if it was because he had become hostile towards Abama.
Or maybe it was Leonhard’s sigh. No, it definitely was.
I didn’t even know that Leonhard was angry because I was thinking too much.
“Someone told me to be sorry for that. “You should be sorry for hurting yourself.”
“I’m sorry you got hurt.”
“Where is it more injured?”
“Uh, none.”
Leonhardt’s hand touched the wounded ear. The wound healed quickly.
His hand moved next and gently wiped away the tears that continued to flow from the corners of his eyes.
“But it’s strange. “Seeing you cry like this, I guess you didn’t believe me.”
“Oh, no. That is….”
Yuria was overcome by endless fear at those words, and her eyes became dark.
“I’m sorry….”
Then Leonhard laughed slightly.
It was so cute to see him obediently apologize.
The hands that tremble as if they are holding themselves as if this is all they have, and the blue eyes that are hidden under long, pretty eyelashes that are thick and moist as if they are afraid of the world.
And wounds on the cheeks and lips. It hurts.
Leonhardt found something he didn’t like.
Yuria’s body trembled in pain as the hand slowly brushed her wet cheek, which had begun to swell.
A faint moan naturally flowed from the corner of my mouth.
“They said you weren’t hurt.”
“Oh, whoops, I forgot…” Uh. Sorry.”
“I’m not scolding you. Don’t cry too much. “You’re crying because of me, right?”
Yuria paused for a moment.
For a moment, she thought that she was crying because of Abama.
Because of the deep scars his words and actions left on her heart.
While she hesitated for a moment, the warmth from her large hand covered her cheek.
Yuria rubbed her soft cheek in his hand, and she finally let out the long breath she had been holding in for so long.
A burning heat filled my cheeks. Other than that, I felt as if all my other sense organs were paralyzed.
I am starting to feel confident.
“… “I was crying because of Leonhard.”
Yuria felt the pain in her cheek slowly disappear along with the spreading warmth.
“Then that’s enough. “Your cheeks are healed now.”
Her hand came down from her cheek and brushed over Yuria’s lips, which were thicker than usual.
Leonhardt then parted her thin lips as if he was annoyed.
Neatly arranged white teeth were revealed in her small mouth.
A crack appeared between Yuria’s pretty eyebrows as her pain spread faintly.
Leonhard gently inserted his finger between her slightly opened lips.
Yuria obediently accepted his finger into her small, moist mouth.
A sticky tongue with a burning sensation wrapped around Leonhard’s finger.
“You’re good.”
Leonhard praised her lightly, as if he had no idea that she was older than her.
Delighted by her praise, Yuria blushed and lightly bit and licked his finger.
Leonhard laughed softly because it tickled the small tongue licking his fingers.
“Stop it. That’s enough. “Because I was cured.”
After the treatment, Leonhard took his finger out of her now clean mouth.
Yuria let go of her finger with regret and was looking up at Leonhardt with eyes that seemed to be hoping for something from her. She was just going to go.
“You said you didn’t have much time. “You’re a fool.”
Leonhard had no choice but to hug Yuria and rub her back.
Between her breasts pressed together. The sound of her heart pounding and beating can be heard.
That sad sound spread throughout Leonhard’s body.
“Look at me.”
At Leonhardt’s words, which rang out in her low voice, she raised her eyes, trembling like a newly born bird.
“You should leave it to me. I’m so scared. “Did I tell you to do that?”
Leonhard’s tone was kind, but his words were harsh.
After a while, Leonhard might start to hate himself too. To the extent that one might think so.
Yuria’s shoulders shrank inward further due to her unfounded anxiety.
Leonhardt gently kissed her hesitant cheek.
And as if to punish her, he bit her cheek where someone else’s hand had touched it, giving it a slightly painful bite.
Yuria said, “Ugh,” And let out a moan.
I felt a burning pain along with a burning sensation.
Maybe that’s why one of the thoughts that had been flowing like running water became clear.
As taught by him.
‘I have to be honest. ‘It has to be that way.’
Yuria opened her mouth whimpering.
She clung to the arm of the man who trapped me.
“Still, I was so scared. Ugh… Tsk… Ugh… I really felt like I was left alone. Because I can’t live without Leonhard. “I was so out of breath.”
After hearing her confession, the corners of Leonhard’s mouth rose slightly.
“Yes. Don’t do that again though. Don’t get hurt trying to protect me. “I take care of it myself.”
“Yes, yes.”
Yuria hurriedly answered without even being able to swallow her breath.
She probably thought she was forgiven.
Her relief was so visible on her face.
Her white and smooth skin, as if she had poured milk, could not even hide the red color that was gradually spreading shyly.
If you do this, I really want to scold you and make you cry.
Still, I have to endure it. I don’t have time for that.
“Then just be quiet now. “I only think about myself.”
“Yes…. “I will.”
“Don’t look away. Only me.”
“Yes.”
Leonhard kissed the corner of the eye of the obedient child again, as if rewarding him.
Yuria thought as she received that kiss.
She probably thought that the opportunity she had blown earlier was her last.
“Leonhard….”
Yuria called his name and lifted her heel.
Leonhardt covered her soft lips and bit them lightly as if playing with her.
And he held her clear, clean breath as she moaned in pain because of him.
Yuria’s stiff and tense body relaxed like a marshmallow again.
Leonhard held Yuria’s thin body in his arms and whispered as if he were going to eat her.
“Never forget it again.”
“Yes.”
As Yuria answered, a lovely red color that seemed to melt spread across her white cheeks.
Her rapid exhalations, filled with such heat, seemed to be pleading for more.
“Later. “You should be more calm now.”
Even though she was disappointed in what I said, she calmly answered yes.
Eventually, she completely surrendered her body to Leonhard, just as she collapsed under the waves.
“Oh, wait a minute.”
As if he had just remembered something, Leonhard picked up his earrings that were lying on the floor.
Leonhard said, putting it in her hand after wiping away the blood with magic.
“We must not forget.”
Yuria swept down the small piece of metal that came into her hand with her hand.
Her familiar, cold touch stayed on her fingertips for a long time.
Like a chain that bound her soul.
Yuria raised her head and looked up at Leonhard.
She knew from the beginning that she was a fake.
But even so, I really didn’t feel like leaving anymore.
Even if you escape, there is nothing.

I knew it because the outside world widened the scar and made it deeper.

It took a while to calm Yuria down.
I hurriedly walked through Yuria’s garden while holding her hand.
“The meeting place is a bit far. “I’ll hurry.”
“Yes.”
There was no strength at all in Yuria’s voice as she slightly opened her lips to answer.
She calmed down for now, but it may be because her mental power is already at its limit.
“Yes. You’re doing great. “Just stay still.”
“Yes. “I will.”
Do you think it won’t help?
No, maybe they think it’s a burden.
Either way, it was a useless idea.
I held Yuria’s hand even tighter, as her blood seemed pale.
‘I want to let you rest quickly, but….’
The situation was not easy.
The battle with Gardner was not easy even when using the strongest sword.
This was because Gardner was surrounded by fraudulent items in the novel’s setting.
Aquamarine Armor, Ghost Sword Kasalute, Bracelet of Flame.
Fraud items that appeared in the novel’s settings.
Among them, the Bracelet of Bulcheon was extremely dangerous.
This was because it was an item that was set to cancel out the power of all magic items.
Even the strongest sword could not escape its effects.
Because the duration ran out quickly, the strongest sword was now released.
Of course, it takes some time to rewrite.
And what I cut earlier was an alter ego created by the emperor.
The main body must be somewhere else.
Even if they interfered again right now, it was a dangerous situation that would not be strange.
At that time, a line of message came to mind.
[Constellation Gaunis is anxious and worried about you.]
When I turned on the system belatedly, I was immediately flooded with over a hundred messages.
