Chapter 204 – Chapter 19 – Civil War
“…”
Yulia stared blankly at Planche, who was putting the armor on her.
Certainly, the maid is the same as usual, with no change in expression.
A strange feeling of alienation had been emanating from her ever since.
What should I say, should I say that I gained confidence in every single action?
Until now, I was careful in treating myself, but there was something else besides that.
“Flanche.”
“Yes, Your Highness the Demon King.”
“Spent the night with him. Right?”
That was the only reason why the energy emitted by this maid in front of him had changed.
From Julia’s point of view, this demon called Planche could say that everything else was aligned only with Klaus, regardless of anything else.
And since she herself acknowledged Planche’s credit, perhaps this cunning maid would have clung to him right away, wiped away that expressionless face, and fawned.
“…”
Did you say that silence is affirmation?
As she watched Planche’s reaction, Julia felt her long-forgotten flame flare up again.
At the academy, yes. I could understand. She thought she couldn’t help it.
She said that she was a cadet, not a king, and he was a professor, not her subject.
Although she considers Klaus her own man, she has made contacts with women for something to come from there, and it all comes down to not bad for her Yulia.
But this is the demon king’s castle, where she has her own throne and where she herself is as a king.
Here, she thought her man was rolling skin-to-skin with another woman, and her irritation soared.
Let’s understand, we can understand, that’s what I said to myself.
Faced with that understandable situation like this, her jealousy flared up.
“Did you like it?”
Planche stopped putting on his wrist guards.
He could see her irritation, anger, and jealousy pouring out of Yulia’s voice.
After thinking for a while, the maid decided to bow her body so as not to provoke this demon lord.
“I’m sorry, Your Highness the Demon King.”
“I didn’t ask this stupid question to get an answer like that, Maid Planche.”
“Sorry.”
“I will ask you again. Did you like it Were you happy in Klaus’ arms?”
“That’s right.”
Planche answered right away without hesitation.
If she showed any signs of worrying in her heart, if she felt like she was paying attention to herself, I was going to use her slow response as an excuse to get away from Klaus.
Also, seeing that she was being evasive like that, she was definitely not an ordinary maid.
Haa, sighing, Yulia turned her body around.
Then, her maid’s hand finished the seams on her back.
“Okay, since you did the work and I said with my mouth that I could do something other than maid work if I allowed it, this conversation would be meaningless. I’m sorry, Planche. I couldn’t see you.”
“No, Your Highness the Demon King. It’s not something for Your Highness to apologize.”
After she had finished, Planche cautiously stepped back.
Looking around Yulia all the time was like checking to see if there were any places that were insufficiently prepared.
After checking her condition for a while, Planche nodded her head as if it was all over.
“I hope you will continue to be so loyal in the future, Planche.”
“Is it possible?”
“But let’s make this one thing clear.”
Cuckoo, coo-.
Yulia moved the joints of the armor around to make sure there were no uncomfortable spots.
Then, as if he was swinging a sword, he stopped and looked towards Planche.
“Anyway, Klaus, that man is mine. I’ve given up monopoly for a while now because of circumstances, but I hate having so many women around him.”
“Understand.”
“Do it in moderation. Within the acceptable range. It might be funny to say this after saying that you will understand or allow it, but the original heart is always changing and swaying.”
As a king, I was taught that caprice is one of the things to be avoided most.
But now, this whim is not done as a king, but as a woman.
So, it was Yulia who thought Klaus would understand a little bit.
Planche was also clearly aware of the part that Julia was very uncomfortable with.
So she didn’t say anything else, she just replied that she knew.
In the current situation, there is no benefit at all by saying something else.
In addition, Planche himself knows that the relationship between Julia and Klaus is more than just a relationship between a man and a woman.
As a result of close observation from the academy, I was clearly aware of that part.
It’s too close to be called a normal relationship between a man and a woman, and there’s an overly hot side to see between a man and a woman who are just sweet, and the boundary is ambiguous to be called a comrade with the same purpose.
Because of this, Planche knew with certainty that it was even more dangerous to intervene.
If you ask me if I’m not jealous, I’d be lying, of course, but I would be less so than the demon king in front of me.
“His Highness the Demon King will not be concerned. Not to mention, this was only possible with the permission of His Majesty the Demon King. I will never do anything that deviate from my duties as a maid until later, when I do my best again and receive recognition from Your Highness.”
“… Thank you so much for saying that. Even words.”
With a light smile, Yulia holds out her hand.
At that, Planche carefully grabbed Yulia’s sword, which was lying beside her, and raised it to her.
Wearing the sword around her waist, Yulia looked at her reflection in the mirror.
She’s never worn a sword many times, but this was the first time she’d worn all of her armor like this.
At the time of the Continental War, she was still young, so she could not go to the battlefield, and there was no law to give an heir to succeed her throne even more when the war situation was not so good.
So Yulia felt very unfamiliar with her reflection in the mirror.
‘Even the enemies I have to deal with aren’t the ones threatening the East, but they’re the main axis of the East. It’s even more miserable.’
Biting her lips, Yulia became even more angry at herself and at her uncle.
Rather, if I had matured earlier and became stronger earlier, this would not have happened.
Or, I wish she would have stopped harboring her ridiculous greed and helped her nephew for the sake of this East Coast.
Right now, the Western Union is still staring at the East with a bad eye.
It is said that an armistice agreement was signed, but judging from the state of tension near the border, it cannot be called an era of peace.
At a time like this, if news of an uproar in the east reached them, would they be silent?
“Your Majesty, I sincerely hope that you come back with a great victory.”
I turn my head slowly at the sound of a voice next to me.
There, Planche was kneeling on the floor, praying for victory, flat on his knees.
I hope you will punish all the traitors who dare to rebel against the demon king and sound the news of victory.
Yulia looked at her silver-haired maid for a while in silence, then smiled.
“Yes. Win and come back That way you’ll get permission from me once again. Please take good care of this place while you are away for a while. Maid Planche.”
“When you come back, I will make preparations so that you can soak yourself in hot water right away. What would you like to drink? Milk tea? Coffee? Or do you prepare tea?”
“I’ll come back and fix that. I’m not sure what you want to drink.”
Planche replied that he knew that and would wait.
She sure looks good at her maid job as she looks at her, she thought.
Julia shifted her steps and started heading outside of her.
“… !”
“… !”
One step, one step, the more I go down the stairs of the demon castle.
Afterwards, she reached the first floor, opened the door, and headed outside.
Finally, the closer you get to the gate to the outside of the castle, the more you get.
Yulia could feel that her huge and great momentum was waiting for her and only herself.
Although it is only about half of the army of well over 10,000 my uncle has amassed.
For Yulia, who had never officially appeared in front of the military yet, she could not help but feel very burdened to stand in front of her thousands of soldiers.
She thought it was no big deal until yesterday, but when she woke up this morning, it was really no big deal, and as usual, she thought it was just a few words and it was over.
After she puts on her armor and kicks her sword, do you think she is finally heading to the place where her soldiers are lined up.
Yulia was worried that her heart was pounding like crazy and that it might burst at any moment.
From now on, they are the ones who have to fight, get hurt, and die for themselves, not for anyone else.
In front of such soldiers, you should at least let them know that you are a worthy king.
It should ignite her fighting spirit and unite her will with nice and magnificent words.
If you make a mistake, if you show a disappointing appearance in front of them, then…
“Nothing will happen, Yulia.”
I turn my head at the sudden voice from the side.
There, like Julia, Klaus, fully armed, approached me.
He glances around and confirms that no one is by Yulia’s side yet.
Right after that, he cautiously kissed Yulia’s forehead, who showed signs of nervousness.
“If they were the ones who would leave just because they couldn’t say a word, they wouldn’t even come out here.”
“Ahhh…”
“Although there may be doubts about you, in the end, the owner of this east is the demon king. And those who are against the demon lord are traitors who don’t even think about it anymore. These are their thoughts and conclusions. So, no need to be nervous, as usual, as originally prepared. You just have to do it.”
It was not someone else, but a man who had been trained in the long seven-year war.
Julia felt that words more reassuring than any other consolation.
The madly pounding heart gradually subsides, and confidence fills the empty space.
Yulia smiled leisurely and moved slowly.
Finally, the castle gate was opened, and the commanders and soldiers lined up in front of it were finally able to face the eastern monarch who would give all orders from the top of them.
“…”
Yulia sits on top of the podium with an expressionless face that is completely unknown.
She looked at her soldiers and their commanders in front of her for a moment, then nodded to Klaus, who stood beside her.
Soon, Klaus’ amplification magic was activated, and Yulia’s voice began to be transmitted very clearly to the end of the thousands of people right in front of the podium.
“I won’t talk too long. Take a look at who you are now.”
At the command of the Demon King, the soldiers looked down at themselves and looked at their colleagues standing next to them.
They are not particularly different from each other, they are soldiers advancing to the battlefield.
“If you’ve seen it all, forget it now. Forget everything. If you win and come back, everything will change. You will live a completely different life than you do now.”
