Chapter 281 – Why Are You Here? (3)
“Baeksoso has transferred schools…”
“Yes…?”
To Lucia who asked back, I wiped my face and spoke again.
“…Baek So-so said he had transferred schools.”
“Mah… Nonsense… How did she…?”
“It’s true that I saw it myself a while ago, so it must be true. More than that, Lucia… Did you know about the white cow?”
Unknowingly, I came to find Lucia once, but when I thought about it again, when I saw the ending of this world with Lucia, Lucia and Baekso had nothing to do with each other.
But how does Lucia know about the white cow?
“…Ah. Yes, master I heard that Baek So-so became the first disciple in Urella’s intelligence department before…”
“Baek So-so became the first disciple?”
Lucia’s words make my head even more complicated.
Earlier, it was said that there are 12 families in the Aslan Empire that can inherit the throne.
However, not all of the twelve families are in the same position.
Black tigers, blue dragons, and red dogs were usually the most powerful families that took turns occupying the imperial throne, while the white snake family, to which Baek Soso belonged, was the weakest.
The fact that the white snake family became the weakest family happened long before the player’s point of view, so it’s not mentioned in detail.
Roughly speaking, one of the disciples of the Baeksa family destroyed several cities, and in return, the Baeksa family went to the brink of extinction.
‘..In that sense, Baek So-so is not in a position to be the first disciple.’
Baek So-so’s talent was enough to become the first disciple, but there was not enough family support to support it.
In fact, until I went to the Aslan Empire and did ‘Princess Making’, Baek So-so had never become the first disciple on her own.
But how…
‘…Maybe it has something to do with the memory remaining.’
It is unknown when Bai Suso recalled the memory, but if he recalled it before the full-scale battle for the throne broke out, it is possible that he would have grown in power based on his memory.
Then, Lucia let out a long breath and asked.
“By the way, Master… What’s wrong with Baek So-so transferring to school…? Possibly just studying abroad…”
Lucia’s words her seemed to ask for my consent even though she knew that she could n’t do that herself.
But I shook my head and answered.
“Baeksoso knew me… No, he remembered.”
“She… She remembers the master?”
In an instant, Lucia’s face her went white and her hands her trembled.
“Uh…How…Don’t…Nonsense…No way!!..It can’t be. For Baek So-so to remember his master his, that kind of thing is not possible ..!!”
Lucia’s breathing quickly became rough, so I hugged her tightly and whispered.
“Calm down. Lucia. If you panic, who should I turn to?”
“Uh… Uh… I’m sorry… I’m sorry. Master…”
At that, Lucia closes her eyes and begins to control her breathing her.
It was natural for Lucia to be shocked.
Because she knew every hundred and soso of memories from her past that she thought only she shared with me.
“… Yes, I have calmed down now. Thank you. Master…”
After a while, when she opened her eyes again, Lucia’s eyes her no longer wavered.
“That’s good.”
When I forced a smile to ease her mood Her, Lucia blushed slightly and opened her mouth.
“…What would you like to do, Master?”
“I just want to talk. Baek So-so said he remembered, but… It could be a lie…”
In fact, since Baek So-so became the first disciple, I think it’s unlikely to be a lie…
If you remember, I want to know exactly which episode you remember.
Then Lucia squeezed my hand and said.
“…Master. Not alone.”
“Know. That’s why I came to see you.”
In a different sense from Liana, Baekso is unpredictable.
‘…In the worst case, they might kidnap me.’
Of course, I will deal with it, but it is unknown how far it will work for Baek So-so.
Then Lucia said with a depressed expression.
“I’m sorry. Master. I don’t know if I can handle the white cow by myself. I’ll do my best…But if the master gets hurt by any chance…I…I. ..”
“It’s okay, I understand.”
I want to keep memories of my previous life hidden as much as possible, so I don’t want to call someone other than Lucia, but…
In terms of characteristics, Lucia was at a disadvantage in dealing with Baek So-so.
“I can’t help but call Liana…”
“…Riana is no good.”
Looking into Lucia’s eyes, she was convinced that she wasn’t like that, that she really should n’t be called because of her usual bad feelings for her liana her.
“Why?”
“…If…The white cow I know… I don’t think it would be good to let him meet Liana.”
“…Surely that’s the case.”
After hearing Lucia’s words and thinking about it again, she doesn’t know what kind of chemical reaction will happen when the first and second places in the ranking of dangerous people in ‘Teacher Aka’ collide.
“I get it. Then let her call Bianca instead of Liana.”
As for Bianca, she does n’t look bad with Baek So-so … Above all, she did n’t seem to notice even if the story about her previous life her leaked out slightly.
“Yeah… I think that would be nice.”
Having said that, Lucia looked up at my face and whispered a promise.
“Do not worry. Master… I will protect you no matter what.”
***
Me, Lucia, and Bianca sat side by side at the end of the table in the large conference hall, waiting for the white cow.
“…Here you are.”
Not long after Bianca, who perked up her ears, spoke, the white cow opened the door and came in.
Again – again –
Baek So-so’s appearance has a beauty that makes me fall for it at some point without even realizing it.
‘…Whoa.’
When I let out a long breath to shake off my thoughts, Baek So-so stopped in front of the table and lightly lifted the tip of her skirt to greet me.
“Nice to meet you. Concubines.”
“What…?”
Bianca got hot at the light provocation, so I grabbed her hand her and stopped.
“Calm down. Bianca. And a white cow. Sit down for now.”
“Whoops… Yes, Mr. West. I understand.”
At those words, Baek So-so obediently sat down on the chair.
I said, tapping the table with my index finger.
“…I’d like you to answer the truth if possible.”
“Oh, the girl is not hiding anything from the West. If you’re curious about what’s underneath these clothes…”
Swoop ─
Lucia said in a shrill voice when she saw Baek So-so trying to pull her chest her.
“Baeksoso… Why did you come here?”
“Hmm… I’m asking for the obvious… The girl has come to help Mr. Seo.”
“You are asking why now? Could she come any time?”
Since Bianca was listening, it was a good question that allowed her to see through Baeksoso’s intentions her while avoiding mention of her past life her as much as possible.
Then Baek So-so twisted the corner of her mouth and smiled.
“I am different from you, Lucia, who only stuck by your side. The girl has prepared various things for you.”
“Isn’t the position of the first disciple coveted?”
Baek Suso sighed at those words and shook her head.
“Haa… Even if they say they hide the information, the news is so slow.”
“…I beg your pardon?”
“The girl is no longer the first disciple. She believes that being the first disciple is, in effect, the next emperor of Aslan. And isn’t it impossible for the next emperor to study abroad?”
“Then…”
“Yes, West. When she comes here, she comes with a promise that she will never come back to that place again.”
Upon hearing those words, Bianca spat out as if talking to herself.
“…For what reason did you abandon the position of emperor?”
“Didn’t you tell me? The girl has come to help Mr. Seo. She is the emperor of the Aslan Empire… Compared to the West, she has no value for a girl.”
Seeing Baek So-so’s smiling face, I swallowed a sigh inwardly.
“…Thank you for thinking of me that way.”
“Fufufu… There is no need for that. It is natural for a girl to serve the West.”
“But… If she was going to come to me anyway, why did she become the first disciple? It must have taken a lot of time and energy to get there.”
Then Baek So-so put one hand on his cheek as if he was sorry.
“She wanted to come as little as possible to the girl, Mr. West, but… She had no choice but to come, because unless she became the first disciple, she would not be able to cause a war.”
War?
Where did the Aslan Empire go to war?
Then, Baek So-so smiled lightly and continued.
“If the princess started a civil war in the Lumenhark Empire… The girl would immediately lead Aslan’s army and go to war with Lumenhark.”
“…!!”
Her eyes widened at Baek So-so’s incredible remark her.
I knew it was difficult to predict, but I could never have thought that Baek So-so would come up with a plan like that.
“You, Baeksoso… You are going to break the Empire’s peace treaty, which has never been broken before?”
“The past has already come. A girl who is not her first disciple has no more strength to start a war… And even if a war breaks out, does it matter? Anyway, this world would be meaningless if it wasn’t for the West…”
Boom—!
“Absolutely insane… You know what war means!!”
Baek So-so twisted the corner of her mouth and said to Lucia who was screaming while hitting her desk.
“Lucia. The girl is not crazy, just that she can do whatever the West needs.”
I asked in a low voice at Baek So-so’s words.
“…Baeksoso. I mean, starting a war does me some good.”
“Yes… Mr. West. I will explain.”
Baek So-so, bowing his head respectfully toward me, replied.
“…The girl wanted to obtain all of Aslan and Lumenhark and offer them to the West.”
Huhu this is crazy girl
