Chapter 169 – Chapter 42. Origin.
Her princess, who came out of her bath, realized what she had done, and she was overcome with shame.
… I’m crazy, really… ! What have I done, what the hell!
How ugly it must have been for a grown-up girl, not a child with a runny nose, and even a warrior with a B-rank right in front of her, crying out for help.
After finishing her bath and dressing up, she couldn’t find the courage to look at the face of Kang Ji-hyeok.
After the crazy shame, I was dizzy as I remembered the many crises that were about to come. To be honest, she was most afraid of disobeying her heavenly father’s orders. … Maybe you’ll be really disowned.
No, he’s still the same…
Then, in the future, let alone the face of the eternal family, you will not be able to even use the last name Balkan. Maybe she wouldn’t be able to set foot in the duchy at all. The Duke of Balkan had such a cold side to him.
… However,
Even if I put up with all that, I didn’t want to go to that pig, the 4th prince. She flashed through her mind the troubles of her old days.
Experiences on the expedition.
There was no water, so she saved every sip and shared it evenly with her colleagues.
She was the one who cheered after killing a powerful monster.
The sadness she felt at the loss of her colleague.
That sense of accomplishment of returning to the capital after completing her mission.
Thinking that all of that was only to go to the Pig Prince made me shudder. … It was never what she wanted.
However, it was difficult to overcome this adversity on my own. If the prince immediately came to her princess and threatened her, she would be afraid and follow him again. Then she would have to live a terrible life without freedom, confined to the Imperial Palace. Even as a shameless concubine.
Princess Elizabeth had a strange certainty that if Kang Ji-hyeok was the hero, she would be able to solve this crisis. Being with him gave her the confidence to overcome any adversity and hardship. … It was a really strange feeling.
What’s more, she hadn’t even accepted a promise to help. Of course, in the process, the princess showed a rather ugly appearance, but she did not think that he would say two words with her mouth.
The princess jumped out of bed and headed for her door. She then held and released the doorknob several times before she got up the courage to grab it and twist it.
Kkwareung-.
Unfortunately, it was just then that thunder and lightning struck. Like a tragic scene.
Princess Elizabeth headed to Jihyeok’s office. She knocked on the door and heard his voice telling her to come inside.
The princess tidied up her own clothes for the last time and went inside. Sitting in front of her desk, working hard on her something, he grinned at her.
“Sit over there.”
Elizabeth headed for the table Jihyeok pointed to with her eyes and sat down on her chair. The car was already ready. He sorted out her papers, where he too was looking at her work, got up and went over to her.
The princess’s heart was beating strangely. But she still didn’t take off her mask of a proud aristocratic lady. Even if she gets kicked out of here, she won’t show her ugliness any more—-, that was her promise.
“Didn’t you catch a cold or something?”
Not even an ordinary civilian, but a person who can become a warrior could catch a cold just because he was barely in the rain. At first glance, it was obviously Jihyuk’s joke.
“I’m not very good at jokes.”
“Is that so. I thought I was talented.”
“I’m sorry, but the joke doesn’t work for a woman like me.”
“Then, shall we make some bad jokes?”
“… Yes?!”
When Elizabeth asked back, a bit surprised, Jihyeok smiled mischievously. Then she couldn’t hold it back and burst into laughter.
“How about this?”
“Oh, I laughed because I was dumbfounded, because I was dumbfounded.”
Jihyeok lifted the teapot, poured the tea into a cup, and pushed it toward Elizabeth. I’ll drink well, the princess said, and took a sip of the tea. She warmed her body with hot tea.
“Can you hear more about what happened?”
A lot of the stories about the gongnyeo earlier were reduced to lumps. Elizabeth hesitated a little, then she began to speak slowly. From the time she met the 4th prince to the time she ran away from her mansion.
Of course, she didn’t openly tell her how she felt. She did, though she had moderately hidden things, but she hadn’t cheated.
Jihyeok, who had been listening quietly with a nod of his head, was silent for quite a while, even when the story was over, with his eyes slightly lowered. Elizabeth felt that her mouth was drying up, so she sipped more and more tea.
“Then… , How can I help you?”
Jihyeok asked after a while. Princess Elizabeth spoke her honest wishes.
“I just want to continue being a hero. … But now under her father, that seems impossible. Even if this marriage goes wrong, I will go somewhere else again.”
“So, you want to come out of the ducal family, is this it?”
“My father is going to throw me out anyway. I’m a little afraid of what’s to come before that. … After all, the opponent is His Highness the Prince.”
Other people might not know, but it was impossible for the princess to handle it alone. There was no other way for her to run away, mentioning her crime of contempt of the imperial family. Even so, her father, the Balkan Duke, would not roll up his sleeves and help her… Rather, isn’t it a great person who tried to sell her daughter to the prince first!
“Are you sure you won’t regret it?”
“Of course. … No matter how bad it is, it will be better than going into the concubine of such a person.”
When she said that, the princess was a little embarrassed. It was only a few days ago that she left with a trembling voice after being rejected by the person in front of her, saying that there are many good people besides you.
When she thought of that, her enthusiasm rose again for no reason. If Kang Ji-hyeok had said he would only marry, he wouldn’t have to go through this ㅡ!
“… How nice it would be if you just said you would marry me… I’m the only one who suffers this humiliation…”
“I’m sorry. How can you stop saying that?”
“I didn’t say this to hear your apology. Sorry. Just a little… , My situation is depressing. It was just a complaint.”
Jihyeok carefully put his hand on the back of Elizabeth’s hand. Ah. Earlier, the pig prince had also held her hand, but it never felt that gross. … It was so much warmer, softer, cozier and nicer. As much as I want to stay like this forever.
“Don’t worry. I will help you … You can stay here as long as you like.”
“… Thank you. I will continue to receive your help.”
Jihyuk laughed heartily.
“… Just that you safely do your hero work is a big help to me.”
It was sincere. It was a huge loss of manpower for a talented person like a princess to be connected to the imperial family. Whatever happens, it must be stopped.
Of course, Gongnyeo’s heart broke at Jihyeok’s words. … He was so incomprehensibly nice. How can this be, to the point of wondering… Everyone else is selfish.
She was the first free kindness that Princess Elizabeth had ever felt. Of course, Ji-hyeok was in a position to raise at least one more useful warrior to catch the Great King, but how could she know what she was thinking? At least that’s how she felt. In fact, no one has to think that way.
“Then go and get some rest.”
“… What about work?”
“Leave it to me.”
“Can I?”
“… Actually, I am in a position to ask for it. After all, the opponent is the imperial family.”
It was difficult even for Jihyeok to touch the imperial family now. If it’s a person like a Kurdish inspiration, I don’t know…
However, asking him to do this was also a bit ambiguous. Still, isn’t the Kurdish old man’s actions in the conference room earning the hatred of many aristocrats? I couldn’t just pour cold water here again.
… It’s best to bump into the same imperial bloodline.
Jihyeok’s eyes glowed strangely after he sent the princess away.
· · ·
After a long time passed, the 4th prince, who had heard rumors that Princess Elizabeth was at the residence of the warrior Kang Ji-hyeok, came to visit him through the pouring rain.
As soon as Pig Prince got off the carriage, he opened his mouth while glaring at Ji-hyeok, who was bowing his head respectfully.
“Where is the princess-!”
It was as if her lover had been taken away by her husband. … Well, the woman who was going to enter the concubine ran away to the house of her young, handsome, and talented man, who would feel comfortable.
However, despite the 4th prince’s scolding, Jihyeok did not change his expression and took him to the drawing room.
“Come over here.”
The prince held his hand behind his back, lifted his chin, and slipped inside him. Ji-hyeok had an urge to kill this unhelpful bob bug. However, if that were the case, it would be difficult for even Jihyeok to survive.
After taking the prince to the drawing room, he served him tea. Of course, he was very uncomfortable with it, and he showed off his temper by hitting the teacup with the back of his hand.
“Do you think I came here to drink tea like this?! What are you doing if you tell me to call the princess right away!”
The escorts who followed looked at Jihyeok with sharp eyes. His gaze asked what to do instead of quickly following orders.
Jihyeok lowered his head in agreement. And he went out of the living room.
4 The prince sat down in his chair and patted his armrest with his fingers, unable to hide his nervousness. How does a fisherman feel when he misses the catch?
Missing the young and pretty princess right in front of her made me feel like I was going crazy. Besides, didn’t they say that they were warriors who cut down monsters and monsters? Seeing her gurgling as she poked her cunt, the feeling of her conquest must be amazing.
Unable to wait, the prince hit the table with his palm and angrily asked why he hadn’t come yet. The escort was about to go outside to find out, but the door just slammed open.
Jihyeok and Princess Elizabeth entered there. The prince’s face became angry when he saw the princess. He jumped up from her and went over to her.
“Princess, it seems I was a bit impatient. Let’s talk slowly again. Huh? Let’s go back today hurry.”
“… No, I do not want. I, this marriage, I do not want.”
Hearing this, the prince’s eyes turned wild. Moreover, isn’t it in front of the hero Kang Ji-hyeok! He was very proud of himself.
“Yeah, two years. Are you scorning me now!”
The princess remained still with her head bowed. The prince grabbed the princess by the wrist and tried to drag her away. But she stopped and stretched out. Of course, he was far behind her, and he couldn’t help dragging her along.
“What are you doing without taking this bitch with you right now?!”
The escorts moved. The princess glared at them, telling them not to touch them.
“I’m sure you’ll come to your senses after seeing blood!”
That’s how it became an instant situation.
… And just then, the parlor door slammed open. When the 4th prince was about to yell at someone who dared to open the door without permission, his complexion turned blue when he saw the other person.
“… What’s going on, this?”
Princess Ganesha entered the drawing room with her hands behind her back. Only then did the prince feel sorry for himself. Everyone knew that the hero Jihyeok Kang and the princess Ganesha were close friends.
“Long time no see, brother. Haven’t the birds changed so they can’t see you anymore?”
“… What are you doing here?”
“No, I heard that some bastard dares to touch my precious little brother. Can I stand it?”
The princess laughed heartily. And then she looked at Princess Elizabeth and said “Oh,” And exclaimed.
“My lovely little brother—!”
The princess was a bit taken aback as she was unfamiliar with the princess’s appearance. However, her first priority was the thought of having to tune in to the rhythm.
“Mama.”
“What is Mama? She said to call her sister. Huh?”
The princess grinned and approached her princess and put her arm around her shoulder. She and she looked squarely at the 4th prince.
“But what happened to him?”
“You don’t know—!”
“You don’t know. Because he is my brother.”
“If you don’t even mix blood, what kind of brother is your brother?”
“I’m a stepbrother, my stepbrother. Dude, isn’t your stepbrother your younger brother? We have a camaraderie thicker than blood. … I mean, it’s more sticky than anyone who’s half shy.”
“This year… !”
“Why, do you want to try?”
Ganesha smiled confidently. The 4th prince gritted his teeth.
“Fuck, if I roll my eyes, you know I don’t have a brother, right?”
Every know Isn’t Ganesha’s notorious reputation even in the imperial family? There are already several kites who have become bowls of porridge in her hands.
“So, just pretend that this never happened and just go.”
“This, this is my problem with the Balkan Duke—! It’s not something you can interfere with!”
“Fuck, then disown. Hey, little brother, now you really are my little brother.”
“… Yes?”
The princess’s eyes widened.
Princess Ganesha declared as she pulled her princess by the neck.
“I will protect him until the end. Declared here Damn, touching him is touching me.”
The 4th prince trembled. But here she had no way to do anything more. This mad dog Ganesha has no choice but to step back. It’s best to just avoid mad dogs. Even she wasn’t just a mad dog. She was a fucking strong mad dog.
“… I’ll wait and see.”
“You can watch it now.”
Ganesha smirked. The 4th prince eventually returned empty-handed. The princess spat her phlegm on the floor of her living room while swearing.
“That fucking bastard. Fuck, what’s the only thing you do, what is it? Fuck, fuck like a temper. Fuck, break the head.”
Princess Elizabeth could not be so relieved of her princess’s twin lust today. Ganesha smiled ironically as he glanced at her daughter-in-law wrapped around her arm.
“You owe me? … Take her as an older sister for the rest of your life, you bastard.”
“… Yes, Mama.”
“Damn, you’re my sister.”
The princess hesitated before answering.
“… Yes sister…”
Gongnyeo got the most reliable older sister in the world.
