Chapter 58 – Royal Capital Gaul (8)
-If it’s Arya’s location, you know. You’ve been linked to a girl before.
When I was looking for Arya for a while, this was what the holy sword said.
Einstein stopped Azazel for a moment and then pushed the holy sword, Karelin.
“You know?”
-Yes.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What else are you plotting…”
-How many times did the girl resonate, but her eyes went blank and she ignored everything.
Looking back, it was.
Einstein felt pitiful that he had lost his reason enough to not even have a moment’s leisure.
Maybe it’s because it’s precious and I don’t want to lose it, so I’m even more impatient.
“Where is the location?”
– Huh, he’s a guy with no hair. Aren’t apples first?
“Sorry. So where is it?”
Karelin was dumbfounded at the gaze that would have cost him four months if he didn’t say it.
Arya often acted like she couldn’t live without Einstein, but in Karelin’s eyes, Einstein was better than her, not less.
If it’s good, it’s a supreme and pure love, if it’s bad, it’s an obsession.
However, Karelin had no right to criticize Einstein’s obsession.
It was the same for her too.
– I will guide you.
“If it’s a lie, I won’t let it go.”
It was an insignificant threat.
Karelin answered while hiding a sneer.
-What would you gain by telling a lie?
Azazel asked, looking at Einstein muttering to himself.
“Hey, why are you suddenly muttering to yourself? Does the sword even talk to you?”
For her part, it was said to lighten the mood, but it was funny.
“So it is.”
Azazel, dumbfounded for a moment, frowned.
Did the real sword speak?
“Don’t say anything stupid. Did your head go crazy because your sister disappeared, Einstein?”
“I heard you found it?”
“Your sister? Who?”
The hero tapped the handle of the holy sword with the back of his hand.
“The holy sword.”
“… Have you finally gone mad?”
“It is real.”
She looked at him suspiciously.
“You mean that’s a weapon with an ego, now?”
“It seems that only I can hear it.”
“… It could be because it’s a holy sword, but uhm.”
After a short conversation, the two concluded that it was best to follow the Holy Sword’s guidance.
Finding people in the capital city of Gaul is like finding a needle in the sand.
But if there is a magnet to find the needle, wouldn’t it be necessary to upset the sand?
Karelin led them to a shabby inn.
For Einstein, who arrived, it was a refreshing feeling.
There’s an aria here?
It’s not that I’m in a bad shape, is it?
The cold air unique to winter pierced the lungs, but it did not cool the inside.
Rather, the flames that consumed the body burned more actively, probably because oxygen was supplied.
My stomach was boiling.
Aria.
Please, just stay sane.
“Azazel.”
“Yes?”
Einstein points his finger at the wall of the inn and says.
“Crush it.”
“… Pamper yourself the way you like.”
Cuckoo Palace!
A crimson explosion occurred.
It was Azazel who managed to control the power of her magic, but the building didn’t collapse and only the walls collapsed neatly.
The sudden explosion drew some attention, but it didn’t matter to Einstein.
After the thick dust cleared, there was Aria she had been searching for so long.
With Prince Leon.
What?
It was a strange combination.
Einstein squeezed both of her eyebrows with her thumb and forefinger.
How did things get messed up for Leon to come out of here?
Didn’t they have a conversation in the mansion just a little while ago?
He who was busy was carrying Aria?
It’s weird isn’t it
It doesn’t even fit in time.
It can’t be like this unless there are two people named Leon?
The complexion of Leon who was watching was pale.
“… No way, I thought ‘he’ would send you too.”
A prince who spits out unknown words.
Einstein walked past the collapsed wall to the front of them.
“Who sends whom? I came of my own will.”
“I guess so.”
Leon did not let go of his guard.
Rather, he raised his sword with more tension than before.
Azazel twirled her index finger and pointed at Leon.
“Astein, what are you going to do with that?”
“… Why don’t you sleep, the conversation will come first. Lower your sword, Leon.”
“… Didn’t you come to harm me?”
It was an unfamiliar sound.
“For what? I’m just here to find my person.”
Leon looked back and forth between Einstein and Arya.
“Wonder Miss Aria?”
“You said it earlier. You said you had a lover.”
“… I am a newbie.”
“The sajok is done. I have something to say to Aria.”
Einstein’s gaze turned to Arya.
She didn’t say anything, lowering her gaze like a child who had done something wrong.
Why don’t you see me
Look here
You knew something had happened.
I’m glad you’re fine
I was worried, very much.
I have to say something like that.
What came out was a sharp inquiry.
“Why are you here? Did the prince drag you away by force?”
Perhaps trying to defend Arya, Leon opened her mouth.
“Yes, I asked her for her help…”
“Leon.”
A sharp gaze like a blade pierced Leon.
“I didn’t ask you.”
It was the first time.
How did the hero Einstein look so angry?
“Aria, tell me.”
“… No, Mr. Leon didn’t drag me. It was my will.”
Came of her own will.
A tendon grew on Einstein’s forehead.
“Then can’t you at least leave a message saying that you’ll be away by letter or note?”
Certainly it was.
Had she been calm, she might not have worried enough.
“… That’s right. I was short-tempered.”
“Besides, why didn’t you listen? I told you to stay calm, was that that hard?”
“… Me, me.”
Arya stuttered her words, trying to say something.
Einstein tried to listen.
Her heart just couldn’t.
“Didn’t my words sound like words?”
Thud.
Arya’s eyes twitched.
Her body trembled
“Oh, no. Einstein. Not like that.”
“Then she shouldn’t have gone out on her own. How much did I care about you?”
Arya couldn’t say anything.
Bored, she was the only one. It broke her heart that she had caused him concern for that reason.
She hated herself for offending him and couldn’t stand it.
I should have listened to you.
I should have tried what I was thinking.
What was I thinking?
Could it be that I am an idiot with no answers?
“Sorry, sorry.”
“Why are you apologizing? Your body should be your concern. It’s not just me.”
It’s a sharp tone.
Arya contorted her face in an awkward way, like someone having trouble breathing.
She clutched her chest painfully.
“… Sorry.”
“I don’t want to hear that. What would you do if you were in danger? Was there room? Did you just move your body without thinking? Stupidly? Are you aware of the danger or not?”
All of them were right.
It was a word that made sense.
So it hurt
Arya was silent.
His expression got even worse.
“Did you want to worry about me? If so, it’s very successful. I thought I was going crazy because of you. Do you know what I was thinking every moment? I only heard negative thoughts about whether you were going through hardships or whether you died.”
“Astein.”
As if Azazel could no longer listen, she stood before Einstein.
Sparks flew in her red eyes.
“Aren’t you pushing her sister too hard?”
“What’s wrong? Did I even curse? Did she defame her character? I’m just asking. What great intentions Arya had and she acted out of her own way.”
The air that had been chilly due to the confrontation between the two cooled down even more.
Arya felt her chest tight.
“Aren’t you treating her sister like a child?”
“What?”
“Your actions are like that. We can go out as we please, but why can’t her sister?”
“Arya is weak.”
“Do you even control your actions? Don’t go out? So you’re saying that most people should just lock themselves in their rooms?”
“I didn’t mean that, but it could have been dangerous.”
“I know, I know. But did you find it? Glad then I worried. Don’t do that anymore If I speak softly, it’s over, right? What’s left of this? I know you’re upset, but why don’t you calm down a bit.”
“You speak Did I even hit Arya?”
“I hit you, with words.”
“Azazel.”
Azazel steadfastly expressed her conviction even though her body trembled.
“Don’t make such a scary face, Aria. Did you see her sister’s expression?”
Only then did Einstein see Arya’s face.
It was a mess.
As her tears flowed down her cheeks, she covered her mouth with both of her hands to hold back her tears.
The sight almost stopped her heart.
I saw her hurt by her own words.
She was stupid and stupid.
If it’s okay, I’d be happy with that.
Einstein sighed.
His head whined.
For some reason, the emotional ups and downs rise and fall arbitrarily.
Out of control
Again, I’m in danger alone.
I think I lost it again.
I think I missed it again.
Quaang.
She clenched her fist and hit the wall.
Even if it wasn’t, it was an unstable wall, so it couldn’t overcome the strong force and collapsed.
Einstein let out a sigh as the ground went out.
“Certainly, you need to cool down a bit.”
Einstein strode forward and took Arya’s hand.
Her trembling passed through her hands.
It hurts, my heart
“Let’s go.”
“… Yes.”
The moment Einstein was about to leave, Leon blocked his way.
“Sir Einstein, she did nothing wrong. It was she who forced herself.”
“… Move.”
He pushed Leon, who was in the way, and walked.
Until I heard a bitter cry from behind.
“I had no choice but to save Edelis! She did the right thing!”
Einstein stopped her and turned her head away.
Edelis Bride.
Why did the story of the knight appointed by Leon de Gallia come out at this point?
“Didn’t Edelis say she left you?”
At the words of her departure, Leon’s blue eyes widened.
“… It seems that Kyung has met ‘him’.”
“… That?”
Leon made a frown like someone who drank bitter coffee.
“That’s my original version.”
Original edition?
Einstein looked at the prince with a surprised face.
“… Leon, that means.”
There are many monsters in this world.
Among them, there are monsters that melt people by spouting strong acid, and there are monsters that are good at magic.
However, there is another being that was the most difficult for Einstein.
Doppelganger.
A rare, rare monster that replicates everything in a person and becomes its very existence.
“Yes, I am the doppelganger of Leon de Gallia.”
It was an unexpected confession.
A hollow winter wind blew.
Said the doppelganger.
“Are you a little more conscious now, Lord Einstein?”
“… If we move, the story will be long.”
