Chapter 133. This is what happened, it’s a long game2021.05.11.
The atmosphere of the imperial castle, which had been subdued while the emperor was deeply asleep due to an accident, came alive as soon as the emperor woke up. However, the effect did not last even half a day. This is because the state of the Cold War between Emperor Sang Hwang and the Emperor began out of nowhere.
“Oh, what is all this about?”
“I’d like it to be as quiet as possible.”
“okay. now. Everyone, work diligently!”
Fearing that sparks might fly, the servants took care of themselves. Mabel, who woke up one day later, was diagnosed with her condition by Abelardo’s priest, who had been dispatched as a teaching priest. The reason why he lost consciousness was because he received Aidan’s power directly, so the imperial medical examination was useless. The teaching priest asked Mabel.
“your majesty. How are you feeling?”
“Not very good. It seems a bit wobbly…”
Mabel frowned slightly. I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but ever since I woke up, I’ve had a dizzy and tingling sensation.
“It’s better than when I first woke up, though.”
“I am glad you are getting better. From what I can see, there is nothing wrong with His Majesty’s prison body, but if you have any abnormal reactions, please call me as soon as possible.”
“Yeah thanks.”
As Mabel answered, she glanced at Esteban, who was leaning against the wall in the corner of her bedroom and staring at them with arms crossed. Shocked by Mabel’s declaration of war, Esteban had been wandering around all along. As if waiting to be spoken to.
‘joy.’
But even though Mabel talked to others, she didn’t talk to Esteban no matter what. It was because he refused to listen to Mabel’s request to free Aidan.
After the teaching priest left, Mabel asked, peeking out of her bedroom.
“nurse. I can’t see Lisandro.”
“Sir Donovan…”
Lupe was speechless, looking at Esteban’s notice, but Larima, who was not aware of it, interjected.
“You were placed on probation for failing to assist Your Majesty!”
As soon as he finished his words, Mabel’s fierce gaze flew at Esteban. tingle.
‘Until Lisandro!’
I thought he would be resting because he couldn’t be seen, but he would be on probation. According to the law, he could not properly escort himself as an emperor, so he deserved to be punished for whatever reason. But Lisandro did enough. In the end, it was Mabel himself who insisted. As a result, Aidan’s rampage was prevented, and there was no loss of life, and he wondered if he was safe and sound, but Esteban was stubborn. It was like a chimney to argue that Lisandro should be released from probation right away, but Mabel held it in.
‘This is a long game.’
In fact, at first, of course, he had a premonition of his own victory and was confident that he would be able to get his father’s surrender within a day. But things weren’t so smooth. purple. Esteban’s firm mouth and narrowed brow.
‘Because he’s like a stubborn dad.’
Saying do whatever you want to do, you just do it with words. In the end, there was never a single time when he got his way. Becoming an emperor that I didn’t want to do, and this time too. Mabel squeezed the hem of Xavier’s clothes.
“On mercy. I want to be alone…”
“Yes?!”
“I want to rest. alone.”
Mabel deliberately emphasized ‘alone’ and noticed Esteban. But Esteban pretended not to hear and turned his head away. It was obvious that the plan was to make Mabel have no choice but to talk. Mabel had no intention of falling for that trick.
“On Xavier?”
“Your Majesty.”
Xavier was too weak to kick Dad. Therefore, Mabel’s choice was Gustav, her competent number one aide. After receiving Mabel’s call, Gustav, who came running and grabbed Esteban’s trouser hem, cried out sadly.
“Situation, Your Majesty! What am I supposed to do if you smoke like this? I mean, I want to go home from work!”
“Wait, Gustav.”
“Not a minute. You must go to the office immediately!”
“I’m busy right now-”
“I’m busier!”
No matter how hard Esteban was, he couldn’t defeat a civil servant who was eager to get off work. Esteban, who had endured by saying that he would never go out, eventually had to leave the bedroom because Gustav’s cries spurred him on.
‘I’ll have to finish it quickly.’
Thinking that if Mabel had known, he would have been fed up. Mabel, unaware of Esteban’s intentions, grinned at the empty bedroom.
“Finally alone.”
Now is the time to take care of things that have been pushed back.
***
Small movements frolicking around at the foot of the bed. They were my henchmen and gangster gangsters.
[Did he sing?]
[It’s been a while.]
[I thought he was dead.]
I didn’t call him well because he was often ripped off, but the way he greeted me was quite cute. I selected two of the squeakers and asked them to run errands. Among the squeaks, these two were famous for their nimbleness.
“Look to see if the red eyes that snapped once are all right. Do you know who it is because you saw it? That’s right, those red eyes that are scary. And the 2nd squeaker is a bit difficult…”
The 2nd squeaker was given the role of monitoring the only assassin who was said to have been captured alive on the festival street.
“-You can do that. I’ll ask the filming agents.”
At my request, the squeaker 2 took a step back.
[What should I do if I’m cold, dark, and hungry?]
“What a shame. You normally like places like that….”
[It’s a misunderstanding.]
A life of squeakers who are so preoccupied with delicious rewards that even their habits are dotted with lies…. took out As soon as communication with Casey was established, Casey’s rap poured out.
[miss. Are you feeling well? Damn Devlin bastards. Chew it down to the bone and eat it. How’s the master? He said he was in prison, but he must have eaten. It’s cold these days, so what if I catch a cold?]
“This is convenient because it’s an information guild. Because there is no need to explain.”
[So you’re okay?]
“I’m fine. But Aidan doesn’t know.”
Dad never told me anything about Aidan other than the fact that he locked him up. So, I had no idea whether Aidan had come to his senses or what his current condition was. In fact, I thought that Aidan might not be in the imperial castle, but when Casey, a member of the information guild, said that he was in prison, it seemed to be true.
[hmm. I heard that the atmosphere in the imperial palace was bloody. Did you quarrel with His Majesty
Emperor Hwang ? You said you wouldn’t release Aidan. My escort knight has also been put on probation.”
[His Majesty Hwang Sang-je cares for the lady because she is famous. Oh why don’t you try that?]
“Is that it?”
[Have you ever received a right of wish from His Majesty the Emperor Sanghwang before?]
Heo Eok. I was so startled that I almost threw an expensive communication tool. Of course, there were only a few people in the imperial palace who knew about the anecdote of the wish ticket my father gave me.
“How does Ke Casey know that?”
[Whoops. The floor of the Ermano is clearly visible.]
I looked around for no reason and scolded him.
“I didn’t even know the real Master was me.”
[That’s my only perfect flaw. If a person is too perfect, there is no affection.]
“….” [So
why don’t
you use the wish ticket?]
It was a statement that would have been unimaginable in the past. Because it is only possible with the premise that my dad loves me very much. No matter how determined my father was, I was confident that he would surrender within a few days.
“And if it was a wish to be granted by writing a wish ticket, it would have been granted already.”
[You have a clear understanding of His Majesty the Emperor.]
“Because he is my father.”
After spitting out the words, I felt embarrassed for some reason and hurriedly changed the subject.
“Let’s talk about work. Is the Langard delegation still there?”
[A positive answer came a few days ago. I want to meet you first.]
“Okay. Then…”
. . .
“Then, good job Casey.”
[Nep yep. Keishi is leaving!]
Pop.
“…”
Even when he hangs up, he hangs up while teasing. When I finished talking to Casey and cut off communication, the void came flooding back. I looked around the spacious bedroom where I was the only one, then got into the bed and lay down. My mind was complicated.
‘What the hell happened to Aidan?’
If it was in front of my eyes, I wanted to ask first. The memory of Aidan I peeped at was so devastating and horrific that I was afraid of hurting him… But I still wanted to know. So if I could help Aidan not be lonely. However, in the past, I had asked Aidan what happened to Veron, but the answer that came back every time was the same.
“When I first opened my eyes, what I saw was a dark room.”
dark room. Aidan’s age when he woke up there was said to have been about five or six years old, according to his own guess. The first to appear in front of such a boy was Veron.
“Who are you?”
“Veron Arthur Devlica. I am your master.”
“…master?”
“okay. And your name is Aidan.”
“…”
“Aidan. That is your name.”
That was his first memory from Aidan. However, there was a big gap between the story Aidan told me and the past I saw of Aidan.
“Aidan has no past memories.”
In the first place, the fact that the boys Veron and Aidan could be in the same space didn’t make sense. If the memory was true, it couldn’t explain Aidan’s age. Who else is the owner of the voice in the dark in the second scene?
‘I don’t know more.’
Even though I looked at the past, it felt like I was getting farther away from the truth. Maybe the scene I saw was a lie. But for that to happen, Aidan’s emotions that he felt after being metastasized were too vivid. how old were you One peaceful day, lying on a lush summer rug, looking up at Aidan. I once asked Aidan about it.
“Aye.”
“Your Majesty.”
“Send Belonghangtae Bossu to Naju.” (If you succeed in revenge on Veron later.)
“Yes.”
“Gudamenung mo ha ko?” (What are you going to do next?)
To my question, Aidan had no answer. Maybe he didn’t want to answer. But at that time, I asked quite persistently.
“It’s not Hagu Shipung and Yisuko.” (I don’t
think there is anything I want to do.)
“Admiration?” (Really?)
Was Aidan’s expression looking dark when he looked up, was it because of the thick shade of the tree made of overlapping branches or because of the shade in Aidan’s heart? So I deliberately smiled brightly and grabbed Aidan’s hem.
“Boss, all hamyunggunyang, come with me!” (If you’re done with revenge, just play with me!)
“….”
“Luckily, you’ve lost your eyes on furniture.” (Traveling and eating delicious food.)
Aidan didn’t answer, but for a moment his face I thought that the shadow of I said that because Aidan seemed so lonely at the time. He had a face that looked like he would die if he didn’t watch. on the subject of children.
‘Could it be that Aidan lied to me about the past? Pretend not to remember.’
I desperately hoped it wasn’t just that. I’d rather have forgotten memories. If it’s a memory that I live with, it means that I’m still feeling that lonely and lonely feeling.
‘I hope Aidan isn’t lonely.’
Along with that wind, I slowly fell asleep. A familiar voice was heard.
[…It’s already a fairy tale. I heard that it’s too fast to wake up now.]
It was Yang’s voice.
***
‘What is it?’
I couldn’t come to my senses for a moment at the sight unfolding before my eyes. I remember falling asleep, but when I opened my eyes, all I could see was a dark and dirty space. The dizzy vision constantly searched the space. I almost didn’t notice because the visibility was so low, but it seemed like a dungeon.
‘Is it a dream?’
What kind of dreams do you mean? Whether I was embarrassed or not, the scenery I saw changed every moment. I ran quickly and skillfully between someone’s feet, and sometimes ran through narrow gaps. Visual as well as tactile and auditory senses were clearly felt. You can have a dream like this. When I was startled again, my vision shot up. It was then. I was startled by the blurry look on someone’s face.
‘Aidan!’
Then, the owner of the field of vision that I am looking at right now is…squeak…snap?
‘I’m possessed by a rat…!’
It was the moment when I added possession to reincarnation, the genre of my life.
