Chapter 819 – Day 94 – People Gathering on the Right Path
“Frigg was the god of the home, and Udr was the god of the sea.”
The princess, who calmly tasted knowledge and wisdom from the pile of books and papers, had a quite complicated expression.
“Loki was the god of mischief… So when Loki died, was he playing pranks on those around him? Is that why Buenos became so hot that it was difficult to stand still?”
The more I learned about the old gods, the more difficult the stories that seemed simple suddenly became. However, the princess did not stop exploring her knowledge and wisdom.
Knowledge is power. I wasn’t talking about that old story. She needed to know what she could do with Frigg’s blessing, and how far she could go with Udr’s blessing.
If you don’t know, you can’t defeat Emperor Jupiter. The princess felt that even the smallest amount of power was precious in order to fight against a tyrant who was so well described as omnipotent.
“I never thought I would see Venus reading a book all day.”
“Aunt Elaine?”
Elaine smiled softly as she spoke to the princess who had been sitting at her desk for a while.
Hedone and Ceres were not in this place right now because they had gone up to the ground and were resting.
“I’ve already read at least a book.”
“Maybe so, actually. I don’t know anything about your childhood.”
“Is it because you were in Britannia?”
“It’s just as I thought. I was thinking about tearing that guy to death, Jupiter, long before you were born.”
Elaine, who was holding glasses filled with alcohol in both hands, handed one of them over to the princess and took a sip of it first.
“Venus.”
“Yes, aunt.”
Elaine opened her mouth first, but felt a little embarrassed and embarrassed and sipped her drink.
“Don’t be like me.”
“Aunt Elaine…”
“I am seeking revenge on Jupiter because of my very personal grudges and desires.”
It was true. It was a fact that the princess knew, Hedone knew, and even her son Arthur knew.
“I am just holding a grudge against Jupiter, thinking that I was robbed of the non-existent fact that I could become emperor. And I am just trying to satisfy that desire through his neck.”
“Your aunt is not that kind of person.”
“No, Venus. Unfortunately, this is who I am. I have lived according to my desires. I have acted according to my own will. So, if I had become emperor, I might have been worse than Jupiter.”
Elaine smiled and pretended to grab something with her right hand and rocked her hips back and forth playfully.
“Beautiful girls from the empire where the sun never sets! They may have built a tower with their buttocks and then shook their hips once to eat them.”
“Poo, poop!! Poop!”
The princess gulped down her drink at the absurd sexual joke.
“Oh, Aunt Elaine! What a crude joke!”
“It’s no joke. I’m a woman who can do that. I’ve been flirting with a woman panting while impaled by my dick.”
Elaine winked lightly.
“You understand? I am that kind of woman. Furthermore, I am a very lustful woman and my revenge is very personal.”
The princess quickly wiped her mouth with her handkerchief and sipped her drink again. She wasn’t drunk, but she could taste good alcohol.
“On the other hand, what you are trying to do to Jupiter is a huge thing. Do you know that?”
“No, Aunt Elaine. I’m just doing this for very personal reasons.”
“You? Personally?”
The princess nodded her head.
“I’m only doing this for the very, childish reason that I don’t want to walk down the same path as Abama.”
“To say something stupid.”
Elaine snorted.
“That’s what makes it so amazing. You understand? Huh?”
Elaine struck the princess’s shoulder with her palm and shook her head from side to side.
“Is that really, huge? You know? Most of the time, the feeling of not wanting to be like my dad is a very personal thing. Do you know what I mean?”
Elaine held both of her princess’s shoulders with her hands.
“After seeing a violent father at home, he vows that he will never use violence when he has children. And ironically and sadly, the only thing the child has learned in life is from such a violent father.”
“So you’re saying she has no choice but to do the same to her children?”
“Yes, most people have no choice but to repeat that terrible behavior. It’s inevitable. That’s all they learned. They don’t know how to do anything else! But look at you, Venus.”
Elaine’s eyes were shining warmly.
“It’s amazing that you were born from a person who only sees everything in this world in a calculated way, and doesn’t care what happens to everything else. How precious is life that sometimes I feel frustrated?”
“Haona…”
“I know. What you’re thinking.”
Elaine took the princess’s hands and led them to her lower abdomen.
“Even if you were born from my seed, it’s the same story, Venus.”
“Elaine…”
“Even though you say you are my lovely daughter and my great child, you are doing something even more ridiculous.”
Elaine’s voice was more kind and warm than ever.
“I only know revenge. Even before something terrible was done to me by Jupiter, I was just doing what I wanted to do. I am a monster overflowing with desire.”
“You are not that kind of person.”
“It’s okay, I know best. So, it doesn’t matter even if you were born from my seed or Jupiter’s seed, Venus.”
Elaine kissed the princess’s forehead.
“You are trying to walk a completely different path than the one your parents walked. That alone deserves a great blessing. Do you understand?”
“Thank you for your words, Oop…?”
While speaking, the princess suddenly stood up with an awkward feeling when Elaine grabbed her arm and helped her up.
“What would have happened if I had declared that I would take revenge on that guy Jupiter?”
“I think it must have been difficult.”
Haha! Look, you have a completely different way of thinking? That’s right. This is what I’m trying to say.”
Elaine snorted and held the princess’s hand and began to climb up to her ground.
“If I told him I was going to cut off Jupiter’s head, how many people would want to help me? So I tried to become the strongest. I thought of creating a red chain and driving my sword into his heart when he was most helpless. “
“I’m thinking about that plan too.”
“Yes, that’s it. My plan is to do it alone. By myself! I was thinking of killing the emperor of the empire where the sun never sets, all by myself!”
Elaine smiled brightly.
“On the other hand, what about you? Oh, it’s completely different. Completely, completely different. Venus! You are truly doing things I can’t even imagine.”
“What on earth is Aunt Elaine talking about…”
The princess, who was a little confused, blinked her eyes when she saw a long round table placed in the huge hall.
At the round table, there were already ‘knight commanders’ who had white hair or looked a little younger.
“Oh, aunt?”
“I told you. Unlike the extremely lonely path I’m about to walk, the path you’re about to walk is overflowing with people who want to help.”
Elaine slapped Princess Pangfang’s shoulders with both of her hands and dragged her to the highest seat of the round table.
As soon as the knights who were already in their seats saw the princess, they stood up from their seats and showed courtesy as if it were natural.
“Well, you guys… No, wait a minute, that’s what I look like…”
The princess, who obviously didn’t look pretty as she walked around, coughed loudly and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief once more.
“As Elaine said, it is an honor to be here.”
“It’s just an honor to meet you too.”
“Your mother didn’t give you any explanation. Let me apologize first.”
As Arthur spoke with a smile on his face, the princess quickly waved her hand.
“What are you talking about? Didn’t Aunt Elaine show me kindness? It’s just…”
There was only one thing the princess wanted to say.
“Everyone, step back.”
“The princess?”
The first to panic was Arthur. He was the man who led the brightest and greatest knights in Britannia.
As soon as he heard Elaine’s story, he even reassured himself that a true knight must act at a moment like this.
“If you have ears, didn’t you all listen? I told you to step back now.”
“What are you saying? Crown Princess?”
“You are knights. You are the ones who must protect justice in the empire where the sun never sets. There is no need to go out of your way to participate in Abamama’s rebellion, which I am about to do.”
The princess knew.
“We are knights too. We know better than anyone else who to follow and for whom to act in this situation.”
“That’s why I’m saying it! The path you’re going to take with me is a very dangerous path. Did you know that Abamama has omnipotent power?”
The princess just needed an army.
I really had no intention of going to war with them.
Emperor Jupiter simply needed a force that could not be ignored.
I really did not want to lead them and stand in the middle of the battlefield and start a huge, ridiculous civil war with the nobles who followed Emperor Jupiter, spewing out blood and flesh, and having their bones cut to pieces.
“You all could die. Do you understand? Your temperament is completely different from the nobles who joined Eternity!”
The nobles had no choice but to give up supplies and had an opportunity to escape even if they were looted.
Knights are different.
They were not just sparks of rebellion, but rebellion itself.
“That’s why we are here, Crown Princess.”
Arthur approached the princess first and knelt before her.
“Because we are knights, we know how much Emperor Jupiter neglected the justice that must be maintained in the empire where the sun never sets.
“He is a being who tolerates the present becoming a sea of fire in hell for the sake of the paradise on earth that will one day come.”
“Please allow this worn-out old man to walk the path of a true knight for the last time…”
Seeing the knights gathered together, the princess retreats behind her in surprise.
But Elaine was there. She gently held the princess’s shoulders with both her hands.
“Venus.”
“Hey, Elaine!”
“Not everyone here came to you because they thought their lives were insignificant. If there is anyone who must risk their lives, if there is anyone who does something worth risking their lives for, I hope it is you.”
The princess turned her eyes forward again, looking at Elaine who spoke to her kindly.
It was difficult to count the number of knights from all over the empire who were kneeling down looking at the princess.
“Just because you were with me… You can be held accountable for that sin and the path you have walked so far can be denied.”
“Then the path we took was wrong.”
At Arthur’s words, the princess closed her eyes tightly.
“I should become an emperor who will not be ashamed of you knights.”
Even though she saw the knights begging her to use them to her heart’s content, the princess had no intention of using them as her own sword.
