Chapter 1004 – #99. The Story of the Three Thousand Concubines and the Emperor (62)
“You must run away, Your Majesty!! If you continue like this, you will be in big trouble.”
“…”
“Shouldn’t live be saved?”
“…”
I lost.
I ate my last chance neatly and splendidly at the temple.
I couldn’t even guess how much damage was done.
Now all that’s left are close guard knights to protect the emperor.
It was impossible to stop the empire’s soldiers with them.
I think I lost consciousness for a moment, but when I came back to my senses, the surroundings were blank.
It is clear that the nobles ran away to find their own way to live.
The only consolation is that you are not sitting on your throne blankly alone?
“Why didn’t you run away?”
If you want to live, it’s right to run away.
The reason he didn’t run away was because he couldn’t find a reason to live.
Even if you try to follow yourself to death, it is nothing more than a meaningless dog’s death with no one to understand.
“Where should I go, leaving Your Majesty behind? The place where a small person should be is where Your Majesty is.”
“You? Huh! I don’t know when my loyalty to Jim became so desperate. I don’t need any of this, so get out of there! It’s inconvenient!”
“Your Majesty…!”
“I’m telling you that you too must find your own way! What can you say, Jim? Are you really going to follow me to the point of death? I have never shown you any great favor?”
If I had always been nice to you, I wouldn’t have said this.
She didn’t trust those around her, and she didn’t even care about her courtier who always followed her around.
And she never spoke kind words to those who were by her side.
She used the excuse of being drunk and out of her mind to commit violence.
Isn’t it nonsense to expect loyalty from someone who has been so enormous?
At least she had enough shame to be able to discern between interests and interests to that extent.
“To begin with, no, I wasn’t the right person for a position like this. Since I sat in the emperor’s seat without even knowing the subject, it was only natural that I would ruin the country.”
There is still a sense of injustice as to why something like this happened when I was the emperor.
Even though she thought about what she should have done to prevent the Geos Empire from being like this, she couldn’t think of a solution that would have caused confusion.
What did she do wrong to end up in this situation?
“I just shouldn’t have become emperor. That would have been the problem.”
“Your Majesty… Please stop talking. We have to plan for the future.”
“What happens next? Even if a girl with no ability runs away, she will go through all the hardships and eventually get caught by the empire. What will happen then? She will be subjected to all kinds of ridicule and be blown away. I don’t want to suffer like that. “
He suffered enough hardships while being persecuted by the previous emperor.
As he ascended to the throne of emperor and lived a life of eating, wearing, and enjoying all kinds of precious things, he thought that it would be better to die than to go back to the past.
“Your Majesty… Are you really planning to give up everything? If you convince the Emperor well, your life will surely be sacrificed…!”
“That’s it! That’s enough! I don’t want to hear it!”
I didn’t want to hear annoying nagging when I was just hours away from death.
“So, didn’t I tell you to go? I just get annoyed when you’re here!”
“… I apologize.”
Still, since he was the only person who was by my side, I wanted to speak softly, but perhaps because of the habits I had formed over the years, I couldn’t say anything nice.
“Why on earth are you still staying here just because there is nothing left to eat!! Go. Go!! Go!!!”
“If you leave your faith, who will serve you? I cannot do that. Please take away my order, Your Majesty.”
“Oh my, I’m just a few years away from dying, so I won’t listen to you?”
“Please inform me! Your Majesty!”
“Fuck… You and the nobles are all the same! You are incorrigible and don’t understand what to say!!! Disgraceful things!! Rude bastard!!!”
After taking out her anger by spitting out harsh curses, she lost strength and sat down.
She thought swearing would make her feel better, but instead of feeling cool, her insides boiled even more.
“Do you have any poison?”
“Your Majesty!”
“It’s like a poison that doesn’t hurt and kills you. I think it would be much better to die from poison than to die by having your head cut off. I’m scared. Furthermore, I don’t want to get sick anymore. Huh?”
“I don’t have it. Why would a small person have something like that?”
“Don’t lie. I know everything. I have it.”
“No. I’m serious.”
Give me the poison, there is none, don’t lie, stay safe.
As I was grabbing the courtier like that, I started hearing loud screams from outside.
“I guess they came.”
Gulp-
Fear appears on the emperor’s face.
“I’m really scared. I can’t imagine what they’ll do to me.”
“… Your Majesty.”
“They will mock me and laugh at me. They might grab my hair and drag me around!!! Would you feel better if I died like that?”
“…”
“I can’t. I never can. It’s better to die than to experience such humiliation. I never had any intention of becoming emperor in the first place. You know? The nobles forced me to sit here. I’ve never been happy to become emperor. Other royal family members I was jealous. I wanted to live as a member of the royal family and enjoy those rights, but why did it have to be me?”
The emperor’s speech was disorganized and contained many gibberish parts.
He suddenly started crying, then got angry again, said he wanted to die and asked for poison, and even broke things.
As time goes by in vain…
Grumble- Boom!!!
“It’s the emperor! The emperor is here!!!!!”
The enemy tramples the emperor’s residence.
Hearing the cries of the soldiers, many footsteps head towards the emperor’s residence.
Even then, the emperor sat in his place with a resolute expression on his face.
It was a very different attitude from just a moment ago when he was shouting that it would be better to die.
She also had something called ‘pride’.
Of course, it is unknown whether that pride will be maintained in front of her sword.
At that time, a tall-looking man with unusual stains appeared, even to her eyes.
Everyone was bowing their heads in front of the man.
“Is this really Emperor Geos?”
Could that man be the emperor of the empire?
I had heard that she had great beauty, so I thought to myself that the rumors were not exaggerated.
However, I was a little puzzled because her face looked so young.
“Yes, Your Majesty the Crown Prince. Emperor Geos will reward you with this.”
“?”
She was primarily surprised that the man she had guessed was the crown prince and not the emperor, and she was secondarily surprised when she confirmed who had answered the crown prince’s question.
“What are you doing? Why are you going there?”
The person who answered the question of the man called the prince was the only courtier who remained by his side.
Emperor Geos couldn’t help but be embarrassed and asked.
“I didn’t even know that the end would end like this… I apologize, Your Majesty.”
“Apologies? The last?”
“It seems that this is the end of the small man’s service to His Majesty.”
“?”
Her courtier quietly moves away from her, and she naturally joins the prince’s soldiers.
When the emperor saw this, the back of his head felt numb, and he was left speechless with his mouth open.
“… Why?”
What’s even more absurd is that the enemy accepted the courtier without any confusion.
No, on the contrary, he even pats the courtier’s shoulder as if he is proud of him.
“Thank you for your hard work. Thanks to you, we captured the emperor without much confusion.”
“Hmm, it’s nothing. Hmm, hmm! I was right next to him and watched him without leaving even for a moment.”
“Yes, you stuck together well until the end. I will reward you big later.”
What is this…?
“Award? Are you giving out an award?”
Something enough to make even a sane person roll their eyes was happening right in front of their eyes.
She found great comfort in the fact that there was one person who remained by her side, even if she did not treat her well.
But she didn’t stay by his side because of her loyalty?
She is dumbfounded and the back of her head feels tingly.
“You were sticking next to me to keep an eye on me in case I ran away somewhere else?”
And that bastard is going to be recognized for it and receive an award.
I felt so empty and empty that I wanted to faint.
This can’t be reality.
I wanted to deny everything.
Of course, that doesn’t change the situation.
“Ah! And it was difficult because the emperor kept asking for poison to commit suicide. He is too scared to commit suicide himself, but I think we need to stop him.”
But that bastard…!!!
“You bastard!!!!!”
Emperor Geos could not hold back his anger and rushed towards the courtier.
The courtier must have predicted the emperor’s anger in advance and quickly hid behind the soldiers, and the soldiers easily suppressed the weak emperor’s seizures.
“Now, the only ones left are the priests… I guess they aren’t easy guys. They ran away as fast as rats. If we don’t want to disappoint Abamama, we must find the priests.”
“The little man knows the secret passage!”
“Shut your mouth!!!!!!!!!! Yaaaaa!!!!! Argh!!!”
“Wow!”
“Hold on tight!”
“Aaaaa!! You bastard!!! Aaaaa!!”
Emperor Geos, who was being held captive by the soldiers, twisted his entire body and screamed.
There wasn’t a great emotional exchange between the two people.
However, because he was by his side until the end, the emperor received a lot of comfort in that short period of time.
“I’ll kill you!!”
At least one person is there for you until the end.
I’m glad I could die without being lonely. That’s the thought.
But that is not the case.
He will even calmly tell you the secret passage while his eyes are still open.
I wasn’t worried about the safety of the nobles who fled there, but I couldn’t just leave a spy doing something like that in front of me.
I wanted to at least punch that bastard in the face right now.
“It won’t work. Arrest me!”
“Ahh!!!”
Many soldiers rushed in and restrained the emperor, leaving the emperor helpless.
The emperor burst into tears as he felt helpless at not being able to do anything when there was someone he wanted to kill in front of him.
“Huh. Hehe…! What did I do so wrong!! What did I do so wrong!!”
There must have been more than just one or two guys like that.
Isn’t it possible to win the war with a spy sticking close to the emperor?
Emperor Geos cried bitterly.
But no one thought to soothe Emperor Geos’s cries.
This was because they had a duty to capture nobles and priests who had still run away.
