WYMYEB - Chapter 130



He didn't seem to be asking seriously.

Rodrick also laughed and replied.

"Ha, what do you look at people? I don't do such a despicable thing. Also, I think I would have killed her in that situation."

The whole time the mercenaries overpowered Letie and dragged her away, Letie had been shouting.

Elona is an evil demon and must be killed.

Only by killing Elona can she regain her true power and save the Empire.

She cried out with murder and glared at Elona the whole time.

If he had the opportunity at any time, he would wield a knife without hesitation.

Those who cherished Elona couldn't help but feel uneasy about her appearance.

If he let Letie live with shallow sympathy, the same thing would happen again someday.

Thus, Kishian indirectly killed Letie, and Rodrick also stood by.

Now he is an accomplice.

Now that Elona's heart had already been decided, he didn't want to tell her about the Kishian's evil deeds.

"Of course, I have no complaints about killing the Princess. If this matter is known to the imperial family, it will be quite troublesome, but you said you will take care of it."

Hearing Rodrick's calm words, Kishian also nodded calmly.

"The Emperor won't pay much attention to her death. Instead, they will try to target Elona again. That's the kind of man he is."

All the Emperor wanted was a real savior.

He wouldn't have to dig into Letie's death.

However, if he found out that it was the Kishian who caused the Princess's death, he could use it as an excuse to demand that Elona be sent back

He will probably demand it persistently and persistently.

He doesn't stop until he dies.

"..."

The murderous Intent in Kishian's eyes flashed.

He really wanted to kill the Emperor, and he couldn't bear it.

The murder that had begun to creep up a long time ago was suppressed with a single thought that he did not want to be hated by Elona.

He was lucky enough to get rid of Letie quickly, but if he got rid of the Emperor, Elona wouldn't be able to find out.

While he was holding back the murderer, the workers loaded all of Elona's belongings into the wagon.

In the first place, she didn't have much luggage, so it didn't take too long.

"I have to go."

As Kishian said that he moved his steps, Rodrick spoke his last words behind him

"I don't think so, but don't hesitate when the opportunity comes."

"What?"

"You told me a moment ago. The Emperor may try to regain Her Highness the Grand Duchess."

Rodrick continued with a clean face that erased the smile he usually wore.

"You said that his behavior is unusual these days. If the moment comes to slash, don't hesitate with a sense of sympathy. Whether it's Her Highness the Grand Duchess' family or whatever."

Rodrick clearly remembered how intimidated Elona had been during her time in the imperial palace.

The Emperor had treated her so badly in the past.

Now that he was possessed by madness, if she were to be taken away by such a person again, she would live in misery for the rest of her life.

The advice he gave with concern made Kishian laugh.

"What is compassion..."

"I mean, the only thing you're better at than me is killing people and monsters, and you won't be clumsy about that."

"Hah."

To Rodrick's scuffle, Kishian responded with a sneer.

Then he finished walking to where Elona was waiting.

Elona was saying a final goodbye to the other mercenaries, including Hertha.

Waiting for the farewell to be over, he put Elona in the wagon first.

Afterwards, he got into the carriage.

"Sister! You have to contact us! At least once a week... Or once every three days."

Elona replied through the window of the carriage that she would, and her gaze moved slowly to Hertha's back.

Rodrick was standing there.

The blue and turquoise eyes collided in the air for a moment.

There was regret in his turquoise eyes.

However, the encounter did not last long.

After giving Rodrick a brief glance, Elona turned her head to face the Kishian sitting across from her.

She had already said everything she needed to say to Rodrick.

It was up to him to sort out the remaining emotions.

Kishian, who had been waiting for Elona, asked innuendo.

"Don't you have to say goodbye more?"

"Yes, let's go now."

Soon, the carriage set off.

Elona closed her eyes for a moment and reimagined what had happened in the mercenary group.

She painted the faces of those who stepped up to help her when she was in trouble.

Someday, they will all meet again.

She just hoped that she could stand in front of them stronger and more solid, not as weak as before.

***

The destination, Grand Duke Lennon, was quite far away from Viscount Gottlieff.

Along the way, we had to pass through several towns and cities.

Still, I was able to endure thanks to the fact that I was kept in a carriage.

If I had ridden without an escort or an attendant, I might have suffered from pain and slowed down my movements.

After several days of steady movement, we managed to reach the outskirts of the islands.

There was no use in the capital.

I just came because I had to cross the islands to get to the north quickly.

Before crossing the islands, our group stayed overnight at a fairly quaint hotel on the outskirts.

Of course, Kishian had changed his face with a magic tool he had found somewhere.

Even so, staying in the islands would likely catch the Emperor's eye, so Kishian seemed reluctant, but he couldn't help it.

We were all too tired to go straight north.

It was difficult to move any further, as I was on the verge of collapse, as well as the other escort knights and servants.

So now, we were eating at a restaurant near the hotel and then going up to our room to relax.

"I think the capital has changed a lot while I'm gone."

As I lay on the bed, I muttered, and Kishian, who had just come out of the bathroom, brushed off his wet hair.

"Really?"

"Yes, it was a more lively place."

The capital was always crowded with sophisticated and lively people.

It was the center of the empire and the place that suffered the least damage from monsters.

But when I looked at it now, it was completely different from what I remembered.

As if they couldn't afford to decorate themselves, people's clothes were shabby, and their faces were covered with dark shadows.

It seems that security has gotten worse, and Kishian once stopped a small child from pickpocketing my bag.

The city checkpoints didn't seem to be working properly.

Thanks to this, I was able to pass through the checkpoint without any difficulty, just by changing my face.

Meanwhile, Kishian sat down on the edge of the bed where I was lying.

He had a habit of walking around with only a towel after washing, so he still dressed like that.

I could see water dripping from his hair dripping down the muscles in his back.

The water droplets flowed down the curve of his back.

It was strangely suggestive.

Meanwhile, I reached out and handed over the fine hair scattered across his forehead.

"It can't be helped. The number of monsters that appear has increased, and above all, the Emperor has become that much."

"...Is my father in a very bad condition?"

"Do you care?"

"No..."

In fact, it was a half-lie.

He wasn't a good father, but it was hard to get on his nerves because I was the only one left in the family.

He had done something to the Kishian, so it was hard to say that outright.

Kishian whispered, lowering his head gently toward me.

"Don't think about it too much, I don't think it will get worse. He said that the imperial curse would be solved if there were a savior. Now that you have the power to be a savior, it will work out somehow."

"Is that so..."

"I found something more Interesting in the bathroom than that."

He smiled and showed me the small bottle he was holding.

"What is this?"

"Massage oil."

It seemed to be something that the hotel had prepared for the guests.

Kishian opened the stopper and let me smell the scent.

There was a strong scent of herbs that made me feel relaxed.

With a tired look on his face, he asked.

"Do you like it?"

"Yes, it smells good."

"Then undress and lie down."

I was surprised when he was suddenly told to lie down, and I just stared at him.

He lifted one of my ankles and kissed my bulging bones and smiled.
