Chapter 27. I can’t stay still2020.05.05.
Took… I dropped the snack I was eating at the sudden appearance of a new face. Two mighty knights.
“Who are you?”
“I am a Royal Knight who has been entrusted with escorting His Majesty the Emperor from today. Please take good care of me.”
“Lissanduro eyes?”
“I cannot tell you.”
Then they went to the wall and waited without any change in expression. I was dumbfounded and just looked at it with a ‘huh…’.
‘Is that the end?’
can’t you tell He didn’t even tell me his name. I wondered if I had forgotten, so I approached the gun and looked at the knights alternately.
“Irumi Moya?” (What’s your name?)
“I can’t tell you.”
“…”
Obviously, the culprit is the situation system. Since having Lisandro attached in the first place was the situation system, attaching another escort must also be the situation system.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter to me…’
Even if it wasn’t, I didn’t want to see Lisandro, but it was rather a good thing. I rummaged through the baby toys Oscar had brought with me, delighted that there were no more eyes watching me from behind the scenes. But…
‘It’s burdensome.’
Standing motionless, the gaze of the knights, who only focused on my movements, made me cautious about even breathing. I fiddled with the doll for no reason and glanced at the knights, and they ‘flinched’ and trembled and avoided my gaze. It bothered me that people I hadn’t seen before came into my bedroom and watched.
“Two knights.” (Knights.)
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Is it too late until Onjae?” (How long will it be there?)
“….”
The knights just kept silent. I let out a light sigh. If you can answer my question well, I’ll have a friendly feeling. Since they didn’t answer or kept saying ‘I can’t tell you’, it was impossible to be together in one place at all.
‘stuffy!’
I threw away my toy and struggled to get out of bed.
“Go out.” (I’m going out.)
Rather than being in a stuffy room, going outside seemed like it would be easier to breathe. Fortunately, the nanny readily allowed me to go out.
“Then would you like to go out and have a snack?”
“yes. Are you giving me some?” (Yeah. What are you going to give me?)
“How about strawberry tart?”
“Joe.”
‘exciting.’
The thought of eating a snack instantly made me feel better. At times like this, I think I’m very simple, but in fact, I couldn’t help it.
‘Because snacks were a luxury to me.’
I couldn’t even buy a 200 won candy because it was a waste of money. But now that I can eat it every day, I thought that a golden spoon is a golden spoon.
‘I’m going to get out of here though.’
As soon as I was ready to go out, I took Larimar’s hand, not Xavier’s, and went out into the garden. There, the strawberry tart prepared by the nanny was waiting for me. First, I dipped a bright red strawberry sprinkled with syrup and put it in my mouth.
‘Mmm, it’s refreshing!’
It was so delicious that Larimar laughed as I mercilessly swayed my feet back and forth.
“Are you that good?”
“yes. Double nose!” (Yeah. It’s refreshing!)
“You ate strawberries first! Our Majesty tends to eat delicious things first. Just like me!”
‘That’s because if I don’t eat something delicious, I might lose it.’
I just laughed bashfully and stuck a blunt-tipped fork into the tart. Rather than having gloomy thoughts for no reason, I just thought of eating a sweet and delicious dessert. I was whimpering and eating the crumbled tart when I suddenly felt a strong gaze. I raised my head secretly, and my eyes met one of the escort knights who were guarding me nearby. slap! The knight bluntly turned his head.
“Hmm…”
I narrowed my eyes and looked at the knights carefully. As expected, they broke out in a cold sweat and desperately averted their gaze to avoid making eye contact with me. Shall I pick you up all of a sudden? I thought it was a joke, but-.
“Eh hyo hyo.”
‘Trouble, what am I torturing? I’m getting older.’
However, it was undeniable that the atmosphere was awkward and embarrassing. If the fact that Larimar, who used to talk a lot, is quiet for some reason, is that evidence?
‘I brought Larimar on purpose because it was so awkward.’
In the suffocating silence, only the clumsy cackling of my fork was clearly audible. The knights felt burdened, so they went out for a walk, but there was nothing awkward about the room or outside.
“I want to stop eating…” (I want to stop eating…)
In the end, I left half of the tart. Larimar freaked out and put a hand on my forehead.
“Three worlds. Your Majesty, are you feeling well?! No fever!”
“Hunt. (I just don’t have an appetite.) I
never thought the day would come when I would miss the time when Lisandro was around. I liked the time when I shouted at Lisandro, who showed up from time to time, to disappear.
“Go to Yangi.” (I’m going to Yangi.) As
I stretched out my arms, Larima hugged me and lightly put me down on the floor. As I walked through the garden, sure enough, the knights followed closely. Even if you take one step closer. Two steps closer. When I turned around and glared at them, they avoided my gaze, but when I moved, they swiftly pursued me again. I couldn’t say anything to the knights who were unnecessarily diligently fulfilling their duties, and it was very embarrassing. Ignoring the knights as much as possible, I was walking towards the forest where the sheep were, but I saw a familiar face in the distance.
“Ew.”
It was Duke Javier who didn’t want to look at him. I turned my head around to find a place to hide, but the duke found me faster.
“haha. I see Your Majesty the Emperor.”
The duke, hands behind his back, came slowly and greeted them politely.
“Nice to meet you, Prince Javier.”
“Your Majesty seems to talk a lot every day.
“All this species.” (Well, to this extent.)
Duke Javier chuckled as if he was having so much fun. Duke Javier is a man who has such a nice face but doesn’t know what to do behind the scenes. It was the first time we had met in a place other than the conference hall, so I didn’t know what to do. I hurriedly waved goodbye to the duke.
“Kuromon’s fingerprints are sweet.” (Then, let’s go.
) If you go away in such a hurry, God will be sad.”
“yes?”
“I have something to tell you.”
I furrowed my brow slightly.
‘Damn it.’
It was somehow uneasy, so I was caught and thrown away. I thought it would be better to listen and finish quickly.
“ Do you have
a body?”
At the Duke’s words, the knights drew closer to me. When I raised my head, they were holding the duke in check with terrifying momentum. Duke Javier took a step back and smiled cheerfully.
“This is true. There is no such thing as His Majesty’s dogs.”
‘huh?’
Perhaps because the person in front of me was still a baby, the Duke was more sarcastic than usual. What do you think you don’t know However, even though Sang Hwang Sang-je gave it to me, it was still quite unpleasant to be sarcastic to my escort knight. After all, it’s like ignoring me.
“Where is the doggie?”
I asked, smiling innocently and pretending not to know anything.
“haha. Not that doggie, Your Majesty.”
“Gon stopped and the sun came up later.” (Gong said he had a doggie.)
“Yes, it was. There was a dog over there, but it must have run away.”
It seems like he’s trying to get over it at my eye level, but I didn’t intend to do that. I replied with a snort.
“Yogi, I can’t stop.” (Dogs can’t come in here.)
“Yes?”
This area is the road I usually walk, so the management of the situation system was thorough, so even scout dogs and hunting dogs couldn’t roam around.
‘Well, of course the duke would know.’
It wasn’t about knowing or not. It was a matter of how much the horse’s tail was stretched or not.
“Gon. Are you a fool?” (Gong. Are you a fool?)
“Yes?”
I laughed and drove a wedge.
“Hapieru Gon. How much did you spend?” (Prince Javier. Are your eyes rotten?)
“…Yes?”
“I’m going to write it all over…” (My eyes are rotten…)
“Hahaha…”
The Duke smiled shyly and scratched the back of his head pretending nothing was wrong, but I knew. Because I saw the corners of his eyes quiver. I feel 100 percent bad now! However, before I became an emperor, since I am still a baby, I can’t say anything, so I must endure it.
‘Uh ha ha. fun.’
But this fun didn’t last long. Because the duke quickly regained his composure.
“haha. It seems His Majesty likes escorts very much.”
“yes. Joey.”
I didn’t really like it or hate it, but I answered roughly without thinking. But this time, the knights flinched greatly.
“I’m going to tell you nothing else, it’s about my son.”
“Enni?” (Enrique?)
“As expected, you know. Yes, it is about Enrique.”
“Is it palatal body?” (What is that?)
Even so, I couldn’t see Enrique because of an out-of-the-box situation banning boys of a certain age from entering the Imperial Castle.
‘Has something happened to Enrique?’
He is good at swordsmanship and is said to be in good health, but he doesn’t show up saying he’s sick sometimes, so I was worried because he’s a child who cares for me. Big hum. The duke cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“I have a question for you. … Do you like Enrique, Your Majesty?”
“Joe.”
Enrique was an unusually calm child. After watching Oscar, I forgot, but isn’t it normal for children at that age to be rude? But Enrique was very, very gentle and kind.
‘Fortunately, he doesn’t resemble my father.’
But Enrique’s father smiled brightly, as if I had replied that I liked him.
“You are too. Enrique likes you very much too.”
“Ugh.”
“In that sense… don’t you want to play with Enrique every day?”
“yes?”
“Live in the same place as Enrique, eat delicious food together, read books together…”
“Ew?”
I openly frowned.
‘Isn’t that enough?’
I couldn’t understand why this man was saying this to me.
“hmm.”
After thinking it through, I came to a conclusion.
‘You’re doing this to impress yourself as a servant in advance!’
If that was the case, no worries.
“Ennikeramyon is a Gaengchan Summi. Ttottokagu Seongsilaeso Jo Eun-shi or I can tell you.” (Enrique is fine. He can be a good servant because he is smart and sincere.) “
Yes? That’s not it, Enrique is—”
It was then.
“…It’s dangerous.”
The knights guarding my side suddenly pulled out their swords and stuck right next to me.
“What is it?”
Larimar, who hurriedly hugged me, muttered nervously and looked around. I opened my eyes wide at the sudden situation.
‘Somehow it seems that the surroundings are quiet-.’
Shuuk!
“…!”
At that time, my thoughts were cut off by an arrow that flew from somewhere. One of the knights struck an arrow with his sword.
“It’s an assault! Escort His Majesty the Emperor!”
At the same time as that cry, dozens of masked killers appeared. I opened my mouth at the first assassination raid in my life.
‘I heard that there is always a barrier in the imperial castle, but how did you get in?’
There was no time to think deeply about such things. Because the killers scattered and started pouring a fierce offensive. Chaeng Chaeng-! The sound of blades clashing against each other could be heard from close by. The duke also hurried towards me, terrified by the sudden attack.
“Your Majesty. Are you okay?!”
Instead of answering, I just rolled my eyes here and there. I was so shocked that my voice didn’t come out. Battle of the many and the two. Of course, the victor was held by the killers.
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. The Royal Guards will arrive soon.”
Duke Javier gasped in surprise, but tried to comfort me. The tips of the killer’s blades were pointed at me. The target to kill is me. As soon as I thought about it, my head felt cold as if cold water had been poured on it.
‘How could I be born again and die again?’
Watching the escorts gradually push back, I clenched my fists.
‘I don’t want to die.’
There was no way to guarantee that they would be able to hold out until the guards came to support them.
‘I can’t stay still either.’
I concentrated on Larimar’s embrace.
‘Come, come, come.’
And then he began to mutter earnestly to himself.
‘Come quickly. come!’
Wing-
“?!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the sound. The killer and the knights raised their heads as they clashed their swords. swarm. Whiiing- The swarms of bees I called flew in from all directions.
“what?!”
Shouts erupted from among the shooters. They attacked the killers without hesitation.
“Ahh!”
I grinned at the screams that erupted from everywhere.
‘Come more, come more!’
Wow-! A dizzying whimper filled the air. In an instant, the sky turned black and the surroundings became dark.
“Suddenly, what a punishment…!”
“Cover your majesty… Cover your majesty with your clothes!”
The duke and escort knights were also surprised and rushed to protect me. But the safest person here was none other than me.
‘I will never be attacked.’
Hehehehe laughed and excitedly called the bees. Wasps, bees, and bumblebees attacked all sorts of killers.
‘You’re pretty.’
If I could, I wanted to pet the bees one by one. Even so, the killers persistently tried to get rid of me in the middle of it. It was a persistence worthy of praise.
‘Is it all I can do to earn time with a swarm of bees?’
When such a fruitless battle is taking place-.
“Mabel!”
A familiar cry was heard in the distance.
