“Please wait a moment!”
It was a cry close to a scream. Judith Calmingha stopped slowly.
From afar, the Crown Princess was running down the hill.
It was like a foal that jumped out looking only at its mother’s tail.
Being caught in a rocky beak, staggering like a cardinal, with no breathing at all.
desperately.
“His Majesty the Grand Duke!”
Judith’s one-eyed slowly turned around.
Through the mist, Elissa Penetian’s face, which had turned white, was reflected.
After waiting a little longer, gorgeous silver armor and jewel-like eyes appeared.
The old man thought as he watched the young man approaching quickly. I’m still very young.
It’s never too late to learn something new.
But at the same time, I had this thought. Will the interest ever survive?
“What you said a while ago, I want to hear more.”
“·················ogue.”
Can you put down the beliefs and ideas of the new royal family that you have embodied throughout your life and understand the beliefs of the Grand Duke?
In Judith’s view, youth’s greatest strength is wonderful resilience.
Young people absorb extreme shocks more easily than middle-aged people, and they show vitality that bounces quickly like a ball made of rubber.
Wounds are easy to heal and forget, so this is the right time to start a second life.
It’s not too late to let go of the past and learn a new path, as your brain is not yet mature.
But not all young people are like that.
Some will break because they cannot withstand the draft, and some will become lost and fall.

Obviously.
“…are you ready?”
Besides, the Crown Princess is not a must-see on the streets.
It must have been a powerful injection in many ways for a long time.
“Yes?”
Elisha immediately asked. Judith looked at her like a cloudy sun and spoke quietly.
“It might be better to leave today’s conversation as a non-event. For the benefit of everyone.”
“·················ogue.”
“I will protect the prince’s young people, and you will be able to preserve the royal family as it is.”
“······no.”
‘I want a chance.’ There was a shrill voice that had always been firm.
Elither himself knew how weak he would appear.
But I had a gut feeling that if I stepped back, I would never be given any chance.
So even if my stomach turned and my body was cold, I had to be brave.
Just like the moment when he devised a plan to send him to an enemy country to save his one and only brother, and jumped into the front line without hesitation.
Like that time when I couldn’t see even an inch ahead, but acted with the reckless conviction that my brother was better than dying.
no. Today, with a stronger heart than that.
“I will do anything to protect the princess and save the new country. Please help.”
“I don’t understand.”
The Grand Duke pushed the Crown Princess again.
There was no emotion reflected on his deep wrinkled face.
“The heavens and the earth have been turned upside down in your life, and you will finally realize your own plight. Maybe you feel that you are less than a beggar on the street. On the contrary, you might find that his life is more true.”
“·················ogue.”
“Are you going to be able to overcome the shame and suffering of that day alone? It would be difficult for a royal grandson who grew up like that. Regrets are like hell, and sorrows are devastating.”
‘Maybe you just want to run away.’ This was the elder’s last warning.
It’s not as good as not to attack with a half-hearted promise, so it was advice to think carefully and step back.
Moreover, there was no such thing as blood kinship or ties between the two of them.
This was the first time we had a proper conversation.
In the worst case, Judith would have chosen the Archduke rather than Elissa.
It was easier than flipping the palm of a hand for the Grand Duke, who had been living as a hermit all his life, to cut off his ties with her.
The land of Nogong was independent enough to be called a Principality by some.
In short, to build the foundation of trust, Elissa had to stake everything.
“I lost Jesse because I was incompetent.”
The old man looked at the young man silently.
In his blue eyes like the distant sea, a burning fire was burning.
“He had the power of a cardinal-level paladin, and he did it despite the accumulated gold and silver treasures and the status of the Crown Princess. He left me so desperately in front of my eyes. I will never see the child again. A scarecrow with limbs tied, even his brother’s body could not be retrieved.”
“·················ogue.”
“There were already many days when I beat my heart alone. There is no light every day, so there is no difference between day and night for me. Still, if I’m frustrated like this, isn’t it?”
“·················ogue.”
“You can’t lose even the youngest, Your Majesty.”
A stream of ragweed ran down her cheeks like white jade. The Crown Princess wiped away the moisture in an instant.
“I will sacrifice my life to prevent Cornelis from playing in the hands of the Duke. I will not stand by to see Sneijder devour the new kingdom.”
“·················ogue.”
“As Your Majesty’s daughter, I will not give up. So please teach me.”
The Archduke did not answer for a while.
However, the gaze of the Crown Princess was swaying hotly, like a power located deep in the surface of the earth.
“How did the 2nd princess come?”
“Sir Martier Zeilstra stands by and guards. He’s the only subordinate and friend I’ve ever had in my life. You can trust it.”
“Who else can you trust?”
“······It cannot be said that it is my power, but Ezart Roséharder, the royal prince, is staying in the royal capital. I heard that he often clashes with Duke Sneijder, and he has very different tendencies. The royal servants are also reliable. He is Count Fauman’s younger brother.”
“Powman?”

One of the archduke’s eyes widened. This was quite a violent reaction, so even Eliser was surprised.
It was also surprising that Fauman’s family was not very well-behaved, and that an elderly relative in the outskirts knew it.
“Are you a blood relative of Annemarie Powman?”
“Yes?”
“no. The mayor should have stopped.”
Then there was a moment of silence.
Judith looked quietly at Elisha, and sighed until the earth was extinguished.
No wonder this young man doesn’t know.
The fact that as many lives as grains of sand depend on his declaration.
The truth that, with that one change, hundreds of years can change entirely.
“Go to the Grand Duchess.”
“… right now?”
The princess’s voice grew louder.
She didn’t even know where this place was, and the Grand Duchess was a far cry from the East Coast.
The adult smirked lightly.
“Then do you have a chance later? Don’t think twice about using the same trick on Wilhelmina Sneijder. Count Roy will also take care of himself for the time being. Looking at the calm sky, it seems that the two countries have entered a cease-fire by now. We should make the most of a case like this.”
Then he turned his back and walked away.
Embarrassed, Elissa was frozen for a moment, unable to move.
I glanced at the side of the campfire where I was lying, and also looked for the moon in the sky.
But the hesitation did not last long.
“······majesty! I will accompany you!”
The young man hastily followed the old man. The corners of the aged lips rose sharply.
Eventually, the two dolls disappeared without a trace over the harmless sea.

How far did I go?
– Clap, cack, cackle…!
From https://noblemtl.com
Oh yeah. A huge stone castle!
“As far as I know, Anemari was Juliter’s servant. It is written that way in my grandmother’s record. Look here, Sir Langbuye.”
“Ah, great…”
I do not know where this place is, but it was not a situation to put my mind to.
First of all, it was certain that it was not an empire land.
The castle, which was as large as a building and had a gloomy rocky cliff like a ghost, and carved out of it, did not look ordinary to anyone’s eyes.
From a distance, it looked like the building was completely buried in the rock. It was like a green protective color.
The majestic citadel had a feeling of overwhelming people, and in the distant sky, crows whirled and roared ominously.
The air was too cold for early fall.
It was still foggy and it was difficult to understand the geography of the surroundings.
The other friends were putting together their experiences in Mankrans village like a puzzle, with all their noises being silenced.
“So, I’ll sort it out. First of all, were there many paladins buried in Mancrans? It means there was a lot of ether. In short, there was the potential to warp space-time at any time. It is said that the remains of Julitter were scattered in the village. In other words, Ulitter is the timeline of the past…? Create a crack there… what is it. What did the Marquis say?”
“Fabric space.”
“Ah yes! It was the right place to open up a temporary space. But apart from that, since the paladins were buried, the halo flowers bloomed profusely. So the psychedelic fog arose. It has a temperament that mimics the ether of a priest, so we were displeased the whole time. People are missing here…”
“Yes. As a result, the Marquis’ theory of lunar phases was correct. As Sir Haynes explains, haloweeds usually bloom around the time they are close to blooming and sprinkle with pollen. It must have been to avoid the gaze of the Lord, but it was no coincidence that the disappearance occurred around that time.”
Sir Elizabeth’s calm voice continued.
I poked my head over the rock where I hid myself with my party.
It was to observe the fortress once again.
The red pandas climbed their shoulders while quivering.
“… it’s really quiet. There is no sentinel, let alone anyone looking out.”
-b
– grunt
-dream
The gods were taken seriously. It looked a bit suspicious even to the guys.
“Is not it. Abandoned adults? It’s too much for that… What do you see?”
I frowned and muttered.
We were quietly hiding, as Sir John said.
About an hour or two ago, the Paladin went to reconnaissance the castle in question with François.
I wanted the Marquis, who had not fully recovered, to remain with me, but I had no choice but to stick with it until the end.
Come to think of it, I think he was trying to secretly tell the story of Herit’s godfather along the way.
I hope it all goes well, and I hope the two of them return safely.
How far did you want to sneak in?
“Ugh. I’m cold.”
I groaned and curled up again.
I’m not usually a big fan of heat or cold, but no matter how much I think about it, the weather here wasn’t September.
If you look closely, it was late October or early November.
The two main characters and Sir Elizabeth looked fine, but even Fabrice, a Southerner, was trembling.
Did he jump up to the very north while crossing the rift? why?
How did you get so twisted?
– Tuk!
uh? Just then, Prince Sedric took off his ceremonial robe and threw it away.
I frowned and glanced at him for a moment.
Seeing that he didn’t even look at me from this side, I felt like I was just throwing it away because it was hot.
After all, the fire attribute is the best in the F/W season!
“Aww.”
He picked up a single bun coat and asked the hot red pandas to help keep others warm.
Then Perry ran to the Duke of Fabrice and gave him a hug.
Leia took a seat on the side of Princess Diop, who was lying over there, and Demi next to Carme.
I moved the shape of my mouth hard. thanks so nice
“Then all of Juliet’s alter ego was an important memory for her. ‘Julus’ was my childhood nickname, and ‘Eta’ was… According to Baron Ingrid’s record, it was the nickname Romero used to call him. Since Grandma Anemari is a servant who has been following her from the new country, she must have had a deep affection for it.”
Christel continued with her fingers crossed.
I stopped asking when I did something else and focused on the conversation.
“It seems that way. However, since you can’t create a real human, it must have been an illusion overlaid on a halo candle.”
“really. Somehow, the human touch is similar to that of a flower. cool thing.”
Two of my best friends had the incident stuck in their minds.
In particular, the commander of the neighborhood guard had a lot of people to report back to, so this process was even more necessary.
I calmly pondered the conversations of my friends.
remember Fragments of Yulitter Statia’s memories…
“Don’t worry, Jesse.”
“Please take care of your sister and brother.”
So, was Prince Jesse, whom I met in the white space, a ‘part’ of him? not all?
But I instinctively recognized him as ‘he’.
He was convinced deep within his bones that he was not a guardian spirit or a fantasy, but a pure and clear Jesse Penetian.
I swear I thought there was no question. What could have been different?
How did I know that day?
“In addition.”
“yes?”
He shuddered and looked to the side.
The prince, who was leaning against the rock, was watching me with his sharp eyes.
“Why?”
“You are too dreamy.”
·······················Whenever I think of Toegye-gong, he haunts me like a ghost.
what do you know and do
“No, that’s…. There are times in life when people have a lot to think about. I heard that bruising after making up your mind is good for brain health. Of course, it’s not something I think about when I get bruised, but anyway.”
I’ll tell you soon, so please wait.
“Do you mean using violence? are you?”
Confused, he picked up a word and served, but his orange eyes narrowed as if he did not understand.
ha ha ha. I laughed mercilessly as the ether flowed through the sanctuary.
Come to think of it, I have a lot to teach this guy.
I’ll have to tell you a lot of fun games with Ga-in later.
What do you find most interesting about the twenties prince in the setting of a male Ropan?
“ah!”
Suddenly, a lightning-like realization lit up my mind!
I impulsively grabbed the prince by the neck. My whole body trembled at the sensation resembling a shock.
“What are you doing? Do you want to be locked up in the palace?”
“crazy. I didn’t remember Those clones are not Julitter’s memories…”
From https://noblemtl.com
Only his lips twitched silently.
They were not Juliet’s memories, but pieces of her ‘setting’.
“Oh my gosh······.”
“Serenite?”
Yulitter does not appear in the main story of ＜I Resigned and a Princess of Another World>.
As a person who had already died in the past, all that was conveyed through the mouths of several people and descriptions of the work was her.
In other words, it exists but does not exist. In Toegye Gong, she is a collection of numerous fragments.
Unlike Jesse Penetian.
He was alive and breathing throughout the work until just before Toegye Gong went on hiatus.
So it was able to appear in full form before me. If all of these hypotheses are correct…
How can I explain why people who didn’t even appear in the original story become my friends?
– Aww!
At that moment, a terrifying explosion sounded from the side of the wall.
We flinched and looked around the rock castle.
It was the direction Sir John and François had departed.
