Chapter 131 – 131. Unwanted Marriage Talk (2)
“There was.”
“I-really?!”
“Yes.”
“Then why… !”
Didn’t they prepare in advance to prepare for the incident?
But it was also too much of a burden for a single human being.
“How many people have been sacrificed in this incident…”
“Sorry…”
“Princess. Calm down. Don’t you know that the princess was able to do something about this case, and that it wasn’t?”
“… Sorry. Princess… I’m so emotional…”
“No. I understand. Eleanor must have witnessed many horrors while participating in this expedition herself.”
Starting with the people of the expedition who were attacked and injured by the humanoid chimera beast, the women who were raped by the bandits who were subordinate to the necromancer, and the horrors of villages attacked by the necromancer and the alchemist, Eleanor felt sorry for herself. I couldn’t.
“This incident started with Artia, who received a report after a girl who was a survivor of a village attacked by bandits accidentally flowed into Pernin. Even if you know that an incident will happen, it is impossible for the current princess to accurately predict when it will happen and prepare in advance.”
“… That’s true, but don’t hit me with facts. It’s more annoying.”
The fact that Yuria heard the news of the necromancer incident this time was also the news that Artia returned from the expedition and the story of the necromancer and the alchemist came through the court meeting through the other attendants and maids.
Nobody else knows how upset YuRia felt at hearing the news so late.
No matter how much you know the plot of this world in the ‘memories of the past life’ and know what will happen in the future, the situation that you do not have the power to solve it was a very realistic and cruel fact.
As Eunhyeon said, no matter how much she knows the events of the future short story, she has no ability to prepare for those events in advance.
Not only does she lack personal ability, but she doesn’t even have a single person of her own that she can trust to listen to her counseling and confide in her troubles.
“That’s why I rushed the princess to reveal her secret in front of the two of them. Alex, what do you think?”
“… What a useless meddling. To have your help with something like this.”
For Alex, who wanted Yuria to open her mouth and reveal her secret, Eun-hyeon’s consideration was useless interference.
However, missing the bridge that Eunhyeon let go like this is another story.
“Princess. From now on, I will help the princess. If you have any concerns or concerns, please do not hesitate to rely on me.”
“Fine… It’s me? Do you believe me… ?”
“Of course.”
“Thank you…”
Upon hearing Alex’s reaction, YuRia let out a sigh as she leaned back against her chair.
The fact that she had someone she could confide her secret to, besides Eun-Hyeon, made her breath a little bit easier.
“But there is nothing I can do to help with this necromancer case.”
“That’s fine. Princess. Now, let me ask you a few questions. Is the name of the necromancer in the princess’s ‘Wisdom’ correct, ‘Marius Holton’?”
“That’s right.”
“Do you know who taught him the ‘necromancer’?”
“No?”
“…”
“Huh?”
Seeing Eunhyeon’s hardened expression, YuRia tilted her head with an expression that she didn’t understand.
Only Eleanor, who knew her situation, looked at Eun-hyeon and put on a worried face.
“Whoa… Are you doing this from the beginning? Really…”
“What? Did you just say something to me?”
“No. It can’t be.”
The story of Mediah did not appear in the novel called ‘Merchen of Destiny’, which contained the flow of the fate of this world, which Yuria had read while on Earth.
The story in her web novel where she was actually happened in a timeline other than this world.
The reason for the obvious big difference between the story in the web novel and the current flow of the story in this world came out very simply.
Just in case, Eunhyeon asked YuRia again.
“Princess. How do you deal with necromancers in Foresight?”
“Umm, the time when the kingdom will notice the existence of the necromancer is a long time later than now. A small provincial territory on the border is attacked by a necromancer and a large-scale undead is created, and a subjugation party is organized to kill the necromancer. It is the Artia Knights who stand at the forefront there.”
The fact that they started raiding local territories meant that they had eaten all the small autonomous villages that did not belong to the territories, and that the kingdom started to move only after a greater sacrifice than now.
Obviously, there was a big difference from the flow of this world.
“Hasn’t there been a case where a survivor of a village attacked by bandits accidentally flowed into Pernin and asked Artia for help?”
“Writing… Sure… So far I’m fine… However, I remember that the Marquis of Olivion at this time did not have time to rest properly because the knights were moving so frantically after the incident that the girl named Erin burned down the capital. Maybe even if there was a request for help, would you have the energy to devote your troops to it?”
Based on her guess, the fact that Riod quickly organized an expedition this time to subdue the Chimera meant that it was also the aftermath of Erinn’s outrage not starting.
In the end, the fact that Eunhyeon took Erinn and took care of her mentality also meant that the snowball rolled and prevented further damage.
With this, Eunhyun was convinced.
Unlike the development in the novel, the reason Mediah appeared in this world was purely because of Eun-hyeon.
Marius noticed that Eun-hyeon was a man favored by Mediah, and in the name of an ordeal, sacrificed his soul and all his magic power to revive the dragon for a short time of one minute, and at the same time, Mediah’s mental body could come over. It has opened a passageway.
And in order to meet her Eunhyeon, Medea changed Marius’s remaining soul and mana into fraud and manifested it in the world.
“X feet, … It’s because of me.”
“Hey. Why are you swearing?”
Hearing Eunhyeon’s murmur, Yuria frowned at her as if she didn’t know what she meant, and scolded her.
“Whoa, sorry. I knew the approximate difference. Now we have to be aware of what lies ahead and prepare for it.”
Eunhyun’s real purpose for creating this place was this.
Others nodded their heads in agreement, realizing that it was to prepare for future problems and incidents in advance and to deal with them.
“In the princess’s wisdom, what kind of situation unfolds after the necromancer is dealt with?”
“Um, that’s…”
YuRia hesitated for a moment, then looked at Eleanor’s face and put on a worried look on her face.
“Princess? Why?”
After reading her eyes, Eleanor tilted her head and asked, and YuRia let out a sigh of hers, and she finally opened her mouth.
“Eleanor goes to her wedding book.”
“Yes?”
“I beg your pardon?!”
“Hmm…”
Alex and Eleanor were surprised by the explosion of a completely unexpected bomb and asked each other their reactions, and Eun-hyeon stroked her chin and fell into trouble.
“Why… To whom… ?”
Momentarily, Eleanor caught a glimpse of Eunhyeon’s face, and fearing that her eyes would meet, she hurriedly turned her head to Yuria.
“That is… By marrying the son of Bishop Harkan, the bishop of the Vesta Temple Pernin branch…”
“Ugh…”
It’s a fact that hasn’t happened, and it’s a fact that exists only as a possibility, but as soon as Eleanor heard YuRia’s words, she frowned, wrapped her arms around her, and trembled.
“Do you know me?”
At Eleanor’s expression of blatant disapproval, Alex asked her own sister with her curious glance.
“I haven’t seen you lately, but… I once visited the temple last year to offer her prayers to the goddess Vesta. The way you look at me at that time…”
Eleanor couldn’t help but frown when she recalled the man’s gaze running her body up and down, not even looking at her own face.
“Princess! Why am I marrying that man? Can’t we avoid that future? Please! I don’t want to marry a man like that!”
“Eh, Eleanor… Just calm down…”
Hearing the urgent and earnest cries of pleading, Yuria put on a troubled expression and sent her brother Alex a wink to ask for her salvation.
“Eleanor, calm down. Let’s hear it for now.”
“Brother! It’s because my brother doesn’t know the way that man looks at me! Those eyes that are so unpleasant and unpleasant…”
“So, let’s hear the story.”
“Okay. Is aid through political strategy a condition?”
Unexpectedly, it was Eleanor’s graceful voice that resolved her doubts and agitation.
As if she were proving his guess right, YuRia stiffened her expression and nodded her head.
“That’s right. What happened after that is really depressing. The capital city is in a state of fire due to the runaway of a child named Erin, and even local territories have many victims due to the damage of the necromancer, and the whole country is in a very difficult situation just by repairing the damage. There, Bishop Harkan visits the Duke of Armitas and proposes an arranged marriage to Eleanor, who is also her outstanding priest, with her own son. In return, they promise to provide large-scale relief supplies in the name of the church to the capital and the provinces.”
After hearing Yuria’s explanation, Eleanor’s hands were clenched with strength.
“Father and… Oh my brother… Did you accept that… ?”
Her tone cautiously trembled with a hint of disappointment, and she asked with a look of fear.
Seeing her face like that, Yuria shook her head.
“No. However, Eleanor personally went to Bishop Harkan and accepted the arranged marriage.”
“I am… Are you talking directly… ?”
“Because it was a time when the people of the entire country were suffering. At least, we couldn’t ignore the relief goods that aid the people.”
“That…”
Eleanor’s hands clenched into his fists gripped his skirt and he began to tremble.
“Okay. Are you using the country’s crisis as an opportunity to come in after coveting the princess’s talent?”
“It is an event in which Eleanor also participates as an outstanding priest under the name of Armitas in the war against the necromancer, making her name and reputation known. It is also an event that prepares the foundation for Eleanor to be promoted to a high priest after going through many incidents and hardships.”
The level of Eleanor, who was forced to go up the hierarchy of divine power by Eunhyeon, was already stepping into the level of a high priest.
While a similar situation was unfolding, Eun-hyeon also expected that Bishop Harkan would try to take over Eleanor.
“But she didn’t expect it to be an arranged marriage…”
I feel that Bishop Harkan’s greed is greater than I thought, and I even laugh at the blatant intention to float the super strong water.
“You… I’m laughing now… ? I look like I’m going to be sold right now?!”
“Oh, sorry. It was a serious situation for the princess.”
Eleanor, furious at Eun-hyun’s attitude, who was laughing at her absurdity, began to take offense at Eun-hyeon.
Even if he expected her tricks, the ripple effect of his arranged marriage, which he heard directly from a being who could ‘predict’ her future work, was different.
Eleanor was also already in a state of marriage, and as a daughter of the ducal family, it was not that she was not prepared for an arranged marriage. As much as a man, he did not want to die.
Suddenly, Eleanor flashed into her own head the words of her Eun-hyeon, which she herself put into her mouth.
“… Take responsibility.”
“Yes?”
“Take responsibility! You said you’d take care of me! Please tell me what to do with that future right now!”
As I grabbed Eunhyun’s collar and started shaking it roughly, Eunhyun’s head swayed up and down helplessly.
“Oh, what… Because I promised I see.”
“… What?”
At his very light-hearted attitude, Eleanor stopped her hand from shaking her collar and glared at him.
“You didn’t forget in the first place, did you? We decided to fuck the temple together.”
“Ah…”
