Episode 104
Sometimes I think of that time.
It was just one of ‘many tragedies’ I’ve seen.
But that doesn’t mean it isn’t a tragedy.
Even if there were many, it does not change the fact that the sight was miserable and sad.
“Sir Mayrun.”
“It was necessary, Mikhail. I am…I had to finish. It was right.”
Haha, Myrun smiled sadly and giggled for a while.
“My father bought and sold people. Even if you didn’t come out directly… …That induced it. And that’s not all. jeon…that she… …I don’t think she was involved in her father’s business… …!”
Some time must have passed, and the blood was black and stuck to it.
Indeed, it would have been.
After that, he wandered aimlessly like a madman.
Ironically, people didn’t want to punish him for killing his father.
Someone accused him of being immoral, but even that person couldn’t say let’s punish him.
Knowing that sometimes there can be parent-child relationships that aren’t right.
If it’s off and off again.
Because I knew that it could have happened if I had been born with a ‘monster’ father… ….
said the broken hero.
“Dad broke my lover! family… …! Using the unfunny excuse of being for the future… …Besides, I saw countless people shed tears of blood because of their family’s misdeeds!”
The reality of a respected family.
My self-esteem was shattered and I lost something precious because of it.
As a result, a disaster occurred when the sword that protected the emperor was directed at my father.
Tears of blood he asked me.
“…Maybe I was right?”
of course.
i couldn’t answer
* * *
“Haha, it’s an honor! I don’t think that famous warrior would know my name!”
Myrun did not stop laughing as he guided me to the throne room.
It was an act that felt light for a knight of the imperial family, but… ….
‘Well, it was like this.’
Yes, Myrun was originally like this.
A broken hero… ….
Although he was called by this nickname, he was originally such an optimistic person.
‘It’s an imperial knight.’
I know very well why the second son of a great family named Kelibos decided to become an imperial knight.
The current perception of Kelibos is that they are the last of the four great families.
Even that is the perception that he is barely on the chin of the great family.
The Marquis wanted to change that evaluation.
So, the first thing he did was to raise the family’s honor.
Wouldn’t it be such an honor if the second son of the family became an ‘Imperial Knight’ and reached the pinnacle?
Because of this, Myrun became an imperial knight.
“How long has it been since you were appointed as an imperial knight for Lord Myrun?”
“Yeah, not too long ago. Still, I am proud of the fact that I became an Imperial Knight.”
Myrun said to me with a bitter smile.
“Of course, compared to the hero, the achievements are weak, but.”
“No, to become an imperial knight at your age is something to be proud of. You, too, have achieved great results.”
“I don’t feel bad again when you say that.”
Haha, Mayrun said that and laughed.
There was not the slightest hint of that smile.
For a moment, the empty laughter of the past passed through my head.
As always, it just passed.
‘At least at this point, Myrun doesn’t know who his father is. That’s why it was broken.’
A way to give a blow to the marquis who had a conversation with his father.
He needs him for that.
In any case, Myrune turns against his father.
In any case, his ‘sense of justice’ would not forgive the Marquis.
If you want the ruin of the Marquis, then leaving it unattended would be the way to go.
You can destroy the marquess family without much effort.
However, if that happens, great confusion cannot be avoided.
that’s not what i want
The ‘Marquis of Kellibos’ fell, but the ‘Kellibos family’ itself needed not to be shaken.
then.
‘It won’t hurt Myrun’s sense of justice, but I’ll need to tweak it a bit.’
Myrune was not like Kellibos.
A talented person who had the same personality as the model of a knight.
It’s completely different from my father, who was stained with cheating and inferiority.
“Sir Mayrun.”
“You say yes.”
“What do you think of the Marquis, who is currently leading the Kelibos family?”
“You mean father?”
Myrun tilted his head and answered without the slightest hesitation.
“He is a man worthy of respect. Our family is one of the only four great families in the empire. Aren’t you the one who still maintains that family?”
“Hmm.”
As expected, at this point, Myrun’s faith in his father is solid.
Well, that’s why I was shocked enough to run amok.
“Of course I know that my father had bad feelings for Walpurgis.”
“okay.”
“But isn’t that also the blood of youth? Father isn’t stupid enough to bring things from those days to this day.”
blood in youth.
under.
I tried to hold back the moment when I almost burst out laughing.
It is the Marquis who has not forgotten that bloody spirit.
I don’t know if he’s my son.
i know
that he didn’t give up.
To be precise, he still hasn’t escaped from the feelings of his youth.
I don’t know the exact circumstances either.
I know as far as the fact that Marquis Hana Kellibos was his father’s rival in his youth and was quite obsessed with his mother.
And then, as my mother passed away at an early age, I harbored an endless resentment towards my family.
In fact, the Marquis before the return, when our family began to decline, pressed our family even harder, accelerating its downfall.
A lot happened along the way.
The Marquis crossed the line once, and Myrun found out about it.
Conflict started from there.
and….
‘It ended in catastrophe.’
When I recalled that time, I smiled bitterly.
Many thoughts came into my head, but it’s not a good thing to solve them now.
“Indeed, it will.”
I laughed heartily and nodded.
I know the dirty side of the Marquis Kellibos, but it’s not good to openly reveal it here.
In particular, doesn’t he still respect his father?
It is not good to provoke it in the first meeting.
Instead, it might help a little if you throw something that could be an ignition point.
“Come to think of it, sir.”
“You say yes.”
“Recently, a bad problem has been erupting in the capital. Do you know?”
“…If it’s not good.”
“It’s a dark house.”
At my words, Myrun’s face hardened.
Due to his personality, he would not allow the menstruation of an underworld who preys on innocent people.
But he hesitated for a moment, then spoke.
“The underworld is definitely a chronic problem. But it’s not something that can be solved at once. furthermore…“
Isn’t that the job of an imperial knight?”
“…Yes that’s right.”
Myrun nodded at my words with an expression that seemed helpless.
“I understand what the hero said, but my duty is to protect the imperial palace and protect your majesty. Separately, those who will play such a role… …”
“Okay. You never know.”
“…yes?”
Myrun looked at me with his eyes wide open.
His words are very correct.
The duty of an imperial knight is to protect the emperor from any threat.
nothing more and nothing less
but.
“Wouldn’t it be different if His Majesty, the main subject, allowed outside activities?”
“…!”
My words widened Myrun’s eyes.
natural reaction.
I know what he wants
Although he is now an imperial knight.
I don’t really like being tied down somewhere.
It was entirely because of the Marquis’ wish that he was acting as an imperial knight who did not suit me.
That means that if you push his back a little, you can make him face outside.
To access the truth he doesn’t know.
i can make it like that
It was late before the return, but it is different now.
It is to know the truth in time and not despair about it.
“Kyung, if you want, I’ll tell you insinuatingly during my audience.”
“Ha, but then it’s a nuisance…“
Of course, I have no intention of making unreasonable requests to Your Majesty. Only if His Majesty doesn’t react badly.”
“…You mean you can get permission to go outside.”
“Yes that’s right.”
At my words, Myrun hesitated for a moment.
When we first met, he looked like he didn’t know why he was making such a proposal all of a sudden.
“I don’t just look at people with normal eyes, sir.”
“….”
“God is with me. Sometimes you whisper. He said.”
At this time, nothing works as well as selling Hekau.
No one can be completely free from God.
“The Lord has a role.”
“…!”
“Well, of course, this would only be possible with Your Majesty’s permission, but there is a possibility.”
I saw Myrun.
“If you want Kyung to be like that.”
“jeon…”
Myrun hesitated.
It wouldn’t be easy to say that he wanted to do outside activities as an imperial knight.
However, it is different if the opponent is a ‘hero’.
Due to his personality, he trusts the hero completely.
It was because he did that against Siegfried right before returning.
Even in his insane state, he was quite respectful of Siegfried’s words.
After thinking for a while, he said to me.
“…May I ask you a favor?”
“Yes, it is not difficult.”
I smiled in response to Myrun’s words.
After that, as we exchanged a few small stories with each other, we arrived at the audience room before we knew it.
“This is the audience room. It was an honor to guide you, hero.”
“It was nothing.”
If everything goes according to plan, we will probably see each other quite a bit in the future.
when he bowed his head.
kugung.
The door to the audience room slowly opened.
slowly and carefully.
I stepped inside.
“You have gone a long way.”
A voice was heard.
My stomach hurt just from hearing it, but I didn’t show it.
A voice that can be said to be friendly if you are friendly.
When I looked up, a middle-aged man was sitting on a throne.
He was looking down at me with bored eyes with his legs crossed.
imperial emperor.
“It is an honor to meet you, Your Majesty.”
I have given an example prepared.
It was also the little one.
damn emperor.
The emperor was right in front of me.
* * *
Doesn’t that sound like an honor?”
The emperor laughed and rose from his seat.
With her hands behind her back, she began to circle around me as she slowly entered the audience room.
“Because he is the emperor, he shows his respect, but like he said, it doesn’t really feel like he respects me. Hmm this is… …“
The emperor looked at me and his eyes lit up.
“…Is it fun?”
“It is an honor, Your Majesty.”
I roughly hit the ball.
Then the emperor clicked his tongue slightly as if he didn’t like my reaction and said,
“First sit down. It’s not going to be over in one or two words, and I don’t intend to have a conversation while standing.”
At the place the emperor pointed to, there was a table with suitable food.
“Yes, it is.”
It is not luxurious, but it is a well-prepared dinner.
I sat down at the table where the tableware was prepared and met the Emperor’s gaze.
Instead of eating, the emperor talked to me.
“No way, I didn’t know that a hero would come out of that Walpurgis.”
“I didn’t know either.”
I laughed haha and answered briefly.
However, the emperor’s reaction was a little different.
He laughed and laughed as if he had heard a bad joke.
“I think you knew?”
“….”
“I thought Jim was selected as a hero after a long time, so I did my own research. Mikhail Walpurgis… …The
emperor took out the documents he had prepared in front of me and began to recite.
“…was sick yes?”
You are very direct.
I replied with a bright smile.
“It was sick. I admit it.”
“It’s a great compliment that Jim’s words were in the past tense here. Are you being too rude to the hero?”
“No, I have no intention of denying that it is true.”
At my words, the Emperor’s eyes looked at me.
Amber eyes.
Depending on the case, it is infinitely cold and also burns infinitely hot.
I saw that those eyes were cold.
And it’s very rare.
There have been times when I have seen nothing.
As usual, that didn’t bode well.
it’s chilled now
Nara means to reassess existence.
Are you a mean person?
Are you a stupid human
Are you obsessed with fame?
Or are you faithful to your desires?
Not simply looking at him as a warrior, but looking at what kind of person Mikhail Walpurgis is.
What I say now and how I react will determine what kind of person I am.
“but.”
so that.
“It’s a bit of an evolved asshole.”
I had no intention of giving the emperor the answer he wanted.
Great mage who transcends by regression
