Chapter 87 – The Unknown Princess (4)
Some time after Benelia leaves the room, her belated relief her calms her mind.
I wondered if I had made a big mistake because I was accompanied by knights, but apparently that wasn’t the case.
Then why the hell did he suddenly come to my room in the middle of the night? I’m trying to understand in various ways, but I can’t get a feel for it.
I also didn’t understand why he preached the disorganization of the current empire while insulting the ministers of the court.
It was true that the power of the Deharm family was insignificant compared to the big families of the system, but if you look at the will and tradition, the Deharm family is not too far behind.
It is said that even if there is no power, there is no ripple effect of the remarks.
The moment I pretended to be crazy and spread the word ‘the princess insults the court ministers’, it was sure to get me in trouble, but why did Benelia tell me something I shouldn’t have done privately?
‘No way, to have the Deharm family under his command her?’
It won’t be. Looking back objectively, the Deharm family was not worth recruiting even while insulting the ministers of the court.
It is said that there is absolutely no reason to embrace her even at the risk of betrayal.
Then, is Benelia trying to recruit me, not a family member…… ? It would be understandable if the purpose was to buy the fact that he had completed artificial rain magic and keep it by his side.
‘But that’s not what I did…….’
My magical skills and insight are nothing more than a master’s, even if you give it a good shot. Without the help of the elves, it would have been impossible to complete it during the winter without investing an incredibly long time in artificial rain magic.
In fact, the assumption that it can be completed by investing time is also unclear. Artificial rain magic had a difficult and complex structure to that extent.
It wasn’t for nothing that Roylen made a fuss about artificial rain magic, calling it the ‘completion of great magic’. From my point of view, artificial rain magic was a high-level magic that was difficult to complete by myself.
The problem was that the person who completed the artificial rain magic was an elf, not me.
Of course, it was my father and I who invented the unusual weather magic that made it rain by adjusting the air flow in the sky and established the first structure, but it was the elf who made the magic work.
That is in line with Benelia’s words that no matter what she expects from me, I can’t listen to her.
“…….”
However, he couldn’t reveal the truth that it was the elf who perfected the artificial rain magic. Because the elf wouldn’t want that.
I couldn’t handle the bloodshed that would happen the moment the identity of the elf was revealed. Either way, in the end, I don’t have a choice.
‘When Benelia asks to come under her command her, she has no choice but to politely refuse…….’
It would be cleaner to block the proposal in advance than to suffer from taking on tasks outside of one’s competence.
It’s not that I have ambitions of making a name for myself in advancing into some system, and all I want to do is to lead a daily life with Essilie as long as the family’s honor is not tarnished. It was a specification.
In short, it was said that even elves did not have the confidence to step into the political world and fight in the mud in the middle of a daunting environment.
Smart-
The sound of knocking makes the consciousness that was locked in thought rise to the surface of the water. I had a rough idea of who was knocking, so I cleared my throat and cleared my voice.
“Come in.”
The door opens, and an elf with brilliant silver hair walks in.
A water bottle and a cup were neatly placed on the tray he was holding.
Our eyes met naturally, but the elf came to me without saying anything and put the tray on the table. Then take a look around.
“The princess…… Are you gone?”
…… Why are you looking for Benelia?
Did you try to splash her water on Benelia? Hopefully not. No matter how elf she is, she couldn’t have tried to do such a vicious thing.
I nodded my head aloof, having erased my doubts throughout the winter.
“Okay. Her Highness her, the princess, finished her business and left.”
“Is that so.”
The elf responded coldly, holding a water bottle and pouring water into the cup. The elf’s heartless eyes lost their temper and something chilled through the barrel looking down at him.
I couldn’t guess what he was thinking, but it was clear that the current condition was not good.
If I don’t do anything here, I’m sure I’ll be hated. Sweating and rolling my hair, I took out a small pill from my bosom.
The elf’s red eyes naturally turned to my hand.
“Master? What is it?”
“It’s a progressive sexual desire booster. Eating this paralyzes the user’s reason over ten days and makes sexual desire simmer at its peak. Literally being a bitch.”
“…… Is it real?”
Could it be real?! This is just a headache medicine that I carry as a household medicine…… ! However, I can never say, ‘You are pretending to prepare something because your expression is not good’.
I, who played the ‘cold-blooded psychopath master’, glared at the elf with cold eyes.
“Are you suspicious of me?”
“It is not.”
“Then don’t vote.”
Fortunately, the elf didn’t ask any more questions. He took the pill from me, put it in his mouth and swallowed it.
To show that he ate properly, he opened his mouth and showed me his mouth. It was somewhat embarrassing to see a small tongue showing through salivating teeth, but now I solemnly nodded as a ‘cold-blooded psychopath master’.
“I ate well. The thought of raping your bitch, who is in heat ten days later, makes me feel good already.”
“It’s too much, Master…….”
“Shut up. That’s incompetent.”
Having beaten the elf’s whining, I quenched my thirst with a glass of water and stood up. Now I’m about to give the elf an order to celebrate, but before I can say anything, the elf comes in my arms.
‘Uh?’
I’m embarrassed because this is the first time I’ve ever had this happen. As I stood still, the elf buried his face in my chest and licked his lips in a creeping voice.
“Theorad Deharm, I remember you.”
“…….”
“You don’t even know?”
…… If that’s the case, then I’m not being selfish. The elf’s low muttering voice was wet for some reason.
I wanted to comfort her, but I couldn’t even get the words out of her because she was talking incomprehensible. The elf, who had held me for a while in silence, released his hand from my back and stepped back. Then he smiled a bit bitterly, with an expression he had never seen before.
“I’ll see you tomorrow, Master…….”
So, the elf left me alone and left the room.
*
…… Benelia was walking in the dark.
It is not unfamiliar to see a world where darkness has taken over all directions. As she absently moved her steps, Benelia suddenly realized that her legs her were too short in stride.
Her realization of her soon informed her that Benelia in this world was but her childhood of her, and she foretold the terrible phenomena that would follow.
“Ah.”
Short sigh. Benelia strangled herself to escape her world, but her own hands her were soon transformed into those of her second brother her, Leonhard.
“Ugh-“
With a desperate moan, the slender body falls.
Plop-!
The empty floor became a thin waterfront and welcomed Benelia. The ceiling, like her abyss her, became the blue sky, casting shadows all over her her Benelia body her.
In line with her Benelia’s seal her, Leonhard with her savage face appeared and shouted at her.
“You stupid bitch! How dare you insult me in front of the court ministers!?”
“Huh, geuk…… !”
“Geji who wants to die! Yes, do whatever you want!”
A force too strong for a six-year-old girl to handle is strangling her. She grabbed Leonhard’s wrist and struggled with her, but it was not enough to get out.
“That, that—”
“You trash bitch! You treat me the same, so you really feel like you’re part of the royal family!?”
Breathing stops intermittently, and the body loses strength. Benelia cried out the name of God in her suffocating pain, but her miracle did not happen.
Her stern hand her presses against her neck her as if it would end her life her. Benellia, who had been resisting her to the end, stopped her struggle as she intuited her death. Losing her will her, her hands her droop, and her dark, sunken eyes her gaze aimlessly at the sky.
Even as her breath stopped, the sunlight was so bright that Benelia inadvertently denied the existence of God.
So slowly I close my eyes
In a world tinged with darkness, Benelia opened her eyes again.
“…… !”
The place where she came to her senses was the guest room of Count Pelgarin’s castle. Benelia, who was sweating and breathing heavily, raised her upper body and shouted.
“Roylen!”
A scream breaks out like a howl.
“Lauren—!”
Roilen slammed her door at the terrible cry and swarmed. Roylen pulled her vial her from her bosom her and handed it to her her Benelia, as she was accustomed to.
“Here it is.”
Widely! Nervously snatching up the vial, Benelia pulled out her two pills and shoved them into her mouth her. Then your breathing begins to calm down little by little.
Benelia tucked her hair back behind her ears and closed her eyes.
Benelia, who had been holding her breath for a while, opened her words calmly.
“I’m sorry for yelling. You have no shame on the subject of getting her help her.”
Roylen hastily shook her head.
“No. I will be waiting by your side, so please call me anytime.”
“…… You choose words that you don’t hate and don’t answer.”
Benelia smiles low and slowly opens her eyes. She stared blankly in front of her, her gold-like eyes losing their color.
“Lauren. Did she tell me that her second brother tried to kill me?”
“Yes. I am familiar with it.”
“Then you know very well that my brothers and sisters have been silent about the incident.”
Benelia closed her eyes again. A bitter smile hangs over her face, which clearly shows her tiredness of her.
“If it weren’t for the guards patrolling the area just in time, I would have died, but my father, the Emperor, rather scolded me. He said it was your fault and even made her second brother apologize.”
Her smile her disappeared, and a refined rage took its place.
“…… If I hadn’t had an out-of-wedlock child, I’m sure he would have said something else.”
“Woe, Her Highness the Princess! Cover the Word! If others listen, great things will happen!”
“Don’t make a fuss. Everyone who should know already knows, but what….”
Benelli Aga, her eyes narrowed, glanced at Ilen.
“Come to think of it, do you know what my father called me at the last cabinet meeting? They say he’s a power-mad monster. Without the slightest idea why I covet power.”
“Her Highness the Princess…….”
Benelia covets power or she dies. To secure her life her from her family her, which was not her family her, she had no choice but to build up the strength to protect herself.
After such desperate efforts, Benelia served as military commander at a young age. She had her 1,500 troops in her hands her, following only herself.
Even so, she is not yet full of sexuality. The world is a thorny road…….
“You are especially lonely today. I wish I had a friend to open up to…….”
Benelia, who had been spitting out words without her strength, suddenly remembered Theo Rad. She is a guy whose intentions are unknown, but since she communicated well, she wanted to see her again.
“Lauren. What time is it?”
“Yes? Oh We are entering at noon. It’s time to see the house soon.”
“Is it. Then I will sleep some more.”
Benelia turned her sideways as she got under her covers. Thanks to that, Roylen went crazy.
“Your Highness the Princess! You can’t be lazy like this! There are many eyes to see, but how….”
“Wouldn’t you be able to make excuses on your own? Moreover, the fact that they came down to catch the rebels is just a justification, so there is nothing to do.”
“One…….”
“Okay, wake me up when it’s evening. Theorard, I have to go see him.”
“…… Was it not enough that you met her yesterday? If you are looking for someone to talk to, I can do anything for you.”
Roylen was proudly pompous, but her plaintive sighs her came from the other side of her.
“Lauren. Are you younger than Theorard?”
“It is not.”
“Or, can you boast that your magical insight is superior to Theorad’s?”
“Not even that…….”
“Are you more handsome or more eloquent than Theorard?”
“That’s not even more…….”
In response to the continued denial, Benelia spoke annoyedly with her turned back.
“By the way, what kind of confidence do you have to judge that you’re a good conversation partner?”
“I, Your Highness…….”
“Rub the rub.”
Tsk. Benelia, who had clicked her tongue, raised her hand and gave a whoop whoop. She seemed to be telling her to quit, so Roylen couldn’t help but walk out of her room with her tears in her eyes.
