God and fairy tale land (3)
“It just looks black to me, Your Majesty.”
That was Modest Bakari-kun’s answer.
We stopped what we were doing and looked back at him quietly.
Round silver-rimmed glasses were glimmering softly under the magic lights.
From time to time, the flames of publication flew from the hearth.
“As I said earlier, Prince Juliet does not have a good influence on my foresight. This is the truth without the slightest exaggeration. I don’t know if it’s because of that person’s existence or if there is another reason… The lines across the sky are just dark and ominous to my eyes. No other specific information was obtained.”
‘I’m sorry.’ The Prophet who said that gave me a glimpse.
It was a face without a special expression, but I could easily read the regret in the eyes of the youth.
When he raised the corner of his mouth to signify that it was okay, he rubbed his lips and turned his head.
I’m sorry, that’s true.

The emperor then clicked his tongue and again scanned the paper in his hand.
It was an item that Canael had brought from the Temple of the Border.
These were the settings of Toegye-gong that Herit copied with crooked handwriting (or drawing style).
Since the child could not read, the sentences were often cut off in strange places, and sometimes a few words were cut off entirely.
The sharp gaze of a middle-aged man repeatedly formed and scattered throughout the paper.
This was obviously an operation to uncover the secrets or weaknesses of the Penetian New Kingdom, and in the end, nothing about it was discovered.
Isabelle looked through a magnifying glass…
“It’s crazy, Your Majesty. I can’t get any information from the second chapter either. His Majesty Hanan said it was a language he had never seen before.”
“okay. It is apparently not a new language, nor is it an ancient code of the Empire.”
“That’s right.”
“Only the Pope can read it . . . no one will be able to read Either way, isn’t it God’s will? After all, there is no new information given to Jim.”
“·················ogue.”
Isabelle fiddled with her quill with a sad expression on her face. A long sigh of the emperor followed.
Master gently stroked his hair and thought together.
I carefully looked at the adults, and then I looked back at my friends.
I thought it would be fine now.
I had to go on a journey soon, so it was better to tell the truth before that.
When Ga-in and the Crown Prince faced each other with wretched eyes, the two nodded contemptuously.
Then I relaxed a little. They both already knew what I was thinking.
Thankfully.
“I, Your Majesty.”
“okay. Don’t whine like a poop dog, and if you have something to say, do it.”
When did I… no.
“The reason why an unidentified white line appeared in the sky is probably because the World Tree was injured. I heard that the contents of the Ark touched the roots and gave off a terrifying light.”
“know.”
“But the World Tree is called the source of life.”
“I think Aurelie explained that too. About 30 years ago.”
“It is also the only one that protects the world line.”
“·················ogue.”
At those words, the emperor frowned and looked at me. you wouldn’t know this
You may be unfamiliar with the word ‘world line’ itself. I cleared my neck heavily.
Lofi, who was watching the new beast basket, slipped and came to this side.
“The reason why the deceased Yulitter was able to create a temporary space and kidnap the Crown Prince and his party was because the World Tree was injured and our world line was weakened. In short, it was an environment that was easy to get in and out of.”
“·······It is the beginning of gold. Why didn’t you tell me?”
The emperor’s dark-red eyes narrowed, and Master’s golden monocle tilted.

Only Mr. Cain, Prince Sedric, and Sir John were at peace.
I wet my dry lips with my tongue. That’s it.
“I······. You both know that you are from another world. The fact that I have a family, a house, and a separate job. I know that that alone caused a lot of confusion. At that time, with our return and the Statia Rock Castle incident, there were already too many mysteries.”
And above all, that was before I revealed the truth to my friends.
I was hiding everything by myself, not being able to figure it out.
He was so tightly wrapped that he couldn’t show his insides to anyone.
Even though the pressure was rising up to his chin, he kept pretending not to know because there was something more urgent.
Then in the end it blew up horribly.
But I’m not going to do that today. Now I have friends who support me.
“Actually, I can read everything written on the paper.”
“What?”
“Jesse?”
The emperor, who was on the cardinal’s knee, got up. Two adults looked straight at me.
Not only Bakari-kun, but Sir Herbe and David were also surprised.
Ga-in, who quickly approached me, grabbed me.
The prince half covered me, and Lofi stood with his back to us with his tail raised.
The emperor, who watched it, sighed in vain.
While I was choosing a horse, in the end, Master spoke first.
“The ark is a record box in which the will of the Lord is gathered. It is the place of the purest will of the Great One. It’s also an object that no one would have thought of touching with the divine until Herit approached it.”
“okay.”
“The interpretation that only the pope could open it was dominant . . . It has been a long time since the owner of the gods did not appear on the continent. So it was a reckless gamble for us.”
“yes.”
“By the way, Jesse, do you mean you read it without interruption?”
I hurriedly waved my arms.
“It’s not that I’m a great person, Your Majesty. It’s just because it’s my native language, and it’s not originally spoken here. By the way-“
sparkle! A memory flashed through my mind for a moment.
【If you don’t mind, I also want to ask you what month and what day today is in the calendar. I wonder where exactly this is.]
The day I crash-landed in Honing Village.
‘Sorry, I’m sorry, angel. what are you talking about… Me, we are lowly and ignorant, ha, we cannot understand the words spoken in heaven…’

Obviously, there was a sudden language barrier.
I could understand Fino and Kuhn, but they couldn’t understand me at all.
I had to go find my friends, but I couldn’t even communicate basicly, so I was so embarrassed that my eyes went dark.
In the midst of all that, it was difficult to refuse the raspberry that the young child gave him.
I put the red ripe fruit in my mouth and swallowed it tightly.
Because that’s a surprisingly great delicacy-
‘Wow. Really delicious. Can I take it and sell it?’
‘Oh, my God! The angel speaks the Penetian! Gosh!’
‘Wow!’
Yes it was!
“When I came back here, I ate the food here, and I was blown away. Until then, I was also unable to communicate.”
“It’s strange. But do you mean these are the characters of the world you were born in?”
“It is, Your Majesty.”
“What does it say?”
Master asked softly. I spoke up right away.
“that······.”
And it hardened for a while. But I can swear it was really short-lived.
The sequence of clenching fists, swallowing saliva, and closing and opening eyes tightly was very short and quick.
The moment I bring out the next sentence—
“It became.”
“Yes?”
Did you not hear well? I almost had to bite my tongue.
Emperor Frederic was staring at me with an expression that was no different than usual.
She clenched her chin once and waved her hand.
“Stop taking your mates and go back to rest.”
It was confusing. I glanced at the two of them and blinked. You haven’t even started yet?
“Your Majesty, the story I’m going to tell you is…”
“You are right.”
Whoops, those words flew. What are you talking about all of a sudden?
“There are already too many riddles.”
“·················ogue.”
“Also, this body is overflowing with things to protect.”
Enlightenment spread very slowly.
Ga-in and mine, who had been hardened, parted openly.
The emperor slowly rose from his seat and approached us.
Lofi puffed her back and threatened, ‘Man!’, but she didn’t raise an eyebrow.
Immediately, red eyes like drops of blood looked at me from a distance.
It was a gaze that was so deep that I couldn’t even fathom it.
“Don’t listen to me later.”
“ah······.”
I see
“Now, I have loads in my hands, so it’s cumbersome.”
“·················ogue.”
This person is already guessing.
Even though I didn’t explain it properly, I figured out the general truth by putting the circumstances behind it.
He shares a soul with Master, so his insight is multiplied, and the amount of indirect information he has gained from observing me must have been considerable.
Thus, the emperor who made a comprehensive judgment in an instant…
“For now, keep it.”
He chose ignorance for himself. ‘I decided not to know’ the secrets of this world.
Still, in a position where there were too many things to consider, the monarch voluntarily chose not to receive information.
Because we can’t afford the additional disorder that it will cause right now.
It was an exhibition, not peacetime.
Today was the day blood was sown on the plains until just before sunset.
In addition, it was the first time in 7 months that she met her companion and had a restful rest.
Even that would be over in a few days, and the emperor had to put all his nerves on the country again.
There was no spirit to devote to the identity of the god or the principles of the world.
“·················ogue.”
So you’re saying it’s difficult right now. Really, right now.
I took a deep breath and looked over her shoulder.
Master, sitting on the sofa, was smiling warmly.
You two are of the same mind. As always.
“I will honor the humiliation.”
“It’s wonderful.”
The emperor grinned, tapped the tip of my nose and stepped back.
I rubbed my bare cheeks with my sleeve.
I never dreamed that it would be like this.
But if you think about it, there is no other decision like this more like Frederique Lister.
“Your Majesty, what you just said…”
“You said later, Erbe. You too, go to unwind with your older brother.”
The middle-aged man responded with a smiley tone.
The captain of the Guard, who stood blankly, scratched the back of his head and retreated.
Then, Bakari-kun handed him bread like a heart, and Canael and his party, who were holding their breath, burst out of bread.
I frowned together and looked back at my friends.
The prince sighed and shook his head. Their eyes met like a passing.
Uh, are you surprised too?
Because your mother is always at the top of our heads.

“Then let’s go back.”
“Good night, Your Majesty. majesty.”
“okay. Go to bed early.”
“Have a nice dream.”
Frederic made a rough gesture, and Aurelie gave a friendly word.
The children carrying their luggage bowed gracefully and left the tent.
Even carrying an ugly luggage bag in a large Shinsoo basket, I couldn’t tell if it was the royal family or a bunch of local bastards.
In the meantime, the cat Shin-soo slipped under the monarch’s bed and it was dark news.
Afterwards, Isabel and Erbe left the barracks.
The smile disappeared from the emperor’s face. She was terribly silent.
“…Aurelie.”
“yes. The temple doesn’t have the information we’re looking for. Jesse’s secret is out of the question.”
Immediately, a lyrical answer came back. The husky voice became even lower.
“Whether it was a thousand years ago or a year ago. It must be said that the Penetian side wiped out all of them.”
“Otherwise, there would be no record of the period of the destruction of Unio.”
“·················ogue.”
“We do not leave unfavorable evidence from the beginning. That’s their way.”
‘It’s the first time these damned guys are like this.’ Frederick clicked his tongue as he swung the glass of water instead of the glass.
Aurelie grabbed her wrist gently and stopped.
The emperor put down the cup of yang that he couldn’t win, and meekly untied his companion’s headband.
But it was already difficult to fall asleep. Because there was one more thing.
Holding the ribbon, she called the wind.
“Taesa.”
-·······Flapping!
Johann Haines, who had left with a smile a while ago, returned from the tent in just a few seconds.
But no one, including David, was surprised.
I don’t know what he was talking about with the kids, but he wouldn’t even need an excuse.
The man bowed politely in front of the emperor and the cardinals.
There was nothing that could be called an expression on her slimy face. Her white hair fell silently.
The king opened his mouth bluntly.
“If you leave with my son and children, for a week after that, I will not float any chimneys. Of course, there is no support group.”
“Yes.”
“You will understand what this means.”
Then John shook his head.
Mint-colored eyes were tinged with a sad purple life.
It was a sentence that did not need to be pondered two or three times.
The Emperor announced his plan to send the Crown Prince and his party to the depths of the New Kingdom in the presence of all commanders.
Even in a situation where it is unknown who the traitor might be inside.
After the ‘Duke Simon de Sarnez Incident’, most of Lister’s ruling class was cleaned up.
However, it was difficult to see that everything was resolved with that.
This is because it is common for real rats to hide behind their tails and not even be able to see their tails.
There were living beings everywhere, giving up all greed for survival, going deep into the hole and giving up even the five senses.
Cheadle, holding on to a string that is more tenacious than a cockroach and promoting the future generations…
It was never a rare story.
“of course. What kind of treatment do you want?”
So, if there is a person who follows the emperor’s orders for 7 days, he is a sinner.
There are no exceptions.
“cleanly.”
“I am honored.”
The man politely replied. Aurelie combed her hair and added kindly.
“You always work hard, John. Please try again this time. Take good care of the children.”
The paladin raised the corners of his lips. This was not at all difficult.
In his native land called ‘the land of gods and fairy tales’, he was destined to be freer than ever since he was born.
Garbage was easier than eating rice.
His owner, who likes to eat, may have a different opinion.
