Law Murder (3)
Just from Habitz’s reaction, it was clear that what the woman named Abella was saying was true.
The head maid skipped all other procedures and called her into the grand hall.
Since it was a story about a flower garden that Habitz always talked about, I also looked at Gustav 4 with curious eyes.
“Uncle Habitz.”
Abella approached with a smile.
“Abella!”
Habitz held Abella’s hand as if he had returned to that day 14 years ago.
“You’re here. Do you know how frustrated I am? What happened to the flower garden? The store is…
“I’m sorry, mister.”
When Abella interrupted Habitz, all the maids in the Grand Hall shrugged their shoulders.
‘it’s crazy. ‘You cut off His Majesty’s words.’
Among the maids who directly assist the Emperor in the Grand Hall, there is something called the ‘Habitz Manual’ going around.
‘I’m going to die.’
There can be no standards for responding to chaos.
Therefore, ‘If you hold a rain ritual, it will rain’ is just a coincidence created by a play of probability…
‘Rule 283: Do not show any reaction when Habitz speaks excitedly.’
For the maids, this jinx was their only lifeline.
“huh? “What are you sorry about?”
Therefore, they could not help but be shocked at Habitz asking questions.
‘Has the jinx broken?’
Abella smiled bitterly.
“The flower shop is open, but there are no flowers that you bought. “I raised him wrong and he died.”
“That’s why you couldn’t come.”
“no. I didn’t want to meet you. I was too young back then. “I just lived with the thought that they were kind of lovers.”
“okay??????
Habitz seemed a little disappointed.
“But you opened a flower shop. “You can buy as many flowers as you want, so don’t be too upset.”
Shock flashed in the head maid’s eyes.
‘I can’t believe your Highness speaks of consideration for others.’
Even she, who had spent her entire life in the imperial castle, had never seen a situation like this before.
‘Maybe… we were mistaken about the person named Havitz.’
From the beginning, I didn’t mind interrupting the conversation.
‘We killed numerous maids, but wasn’t it actually for a completely different reason than we expected?’
Since the head maid was at a loss, needless to say the other maids were confused.
‘Why aren’t you angry? ‘Why don’t you kill me?’
Many jinxes, such as not making eye contact and not using negative words, were being broken.
‘It’s pathetic.’
Balkan narrowed one eye after reading the maids’ military order.
‘After doing something deadly, you don’t know why you’re going to die, so you get scared. Your Majesty is also a person. I enjoy playing with my friends and I know what love is.’
Havitz is also a person.
‘I’m always someone who just wants to have fun. Well, since they only want to use others, they tailor it to their own taste.’
Chaos is not something you deal with with your head.
‘consensus. You just have to honestly express your feelings without any calculations. That’s all your Majesty treats people.’ Of course, it would be impossible for adults.
‘Abella is possible.’
This is because Habitz is a friend with whom I communicated in the deepest places of chaos and emotion.
“Anyway, it’s okay since I came. “I kept my promise.”
Havitz, throwing away his miscellaneous thoughts, sat down on the map and patted the floor.
“Come on. From now on, we are going to conquer the world, so come play with us too. “My friends are fun too.”
It was touching to see the emperor of the empire treat her without fault, but Abella’s eyes were filled with sadness.
“It really hasn’t changed at all.”
“You’re very old, right? You have grown taller and prettier. “If I don’t want to conquer the world, should I play something else?”
Abella’s eyes filled with tears.
“You are a bad person.”
Everyone’s heart sank, and Balkan could not guarantee Abella’s future this time either.
‘There is a clear difference between sympathy and hostility. Will Your Majesty not be angry this time?’
Habitz blinked.
“People say that you are bad. But honestly, I don’t know. This is what it looks like to me now…
Abella said tearfully.
“I like it because it looks like the mustache guy from before.”
“ha ha ha! “Okay, if you like it, that’s fine, right?”
Balkan’s eyebrows twitched as he felt relieved at the sound of Havitz’s laughter.
‘Hoo? This…
Abella was devastated.
‘I wish I were afraid of you, if I could hate you as much as I want, like everyone else… A
heinous act that seeks to plunge the world into hell.
‘But to me…
he was the sweetest and warmest man in the world who listened to whatever I wanted.
‘I’m not dying, am I?’
Abella could have been happy all her life in Habitz’s arms, but she had to kill him for the sake of humanity.
‘That’s the alpha fish.’
After coming to her senses, she said, wiping away tears.
“I can’t play house with you like I used to. “Now I’m an adult.”
“okay? “Then what should we do?”
“Adult’s play.”
Abella walked towards Habitz, who was sitting with his butt on the floor.
“Uncle, will you marry me?”
4Gye’s gaze shifted to Habitz, and a groan escaped the maids’ throats.
‘it’s crazy. ‘You’re marrying that psycho?’
Habitz nodded immediately.
“good.”
Balkan was anticipating the emotions that sprouted after 14 years of Havitz’s chaos.
‘We met as friends… but it seems like our interaction with Abella was a little different.
‘The witch’s fate. ‘Maybe it’s a natural law to be in a relationship with the person who freed you from that curse.’
Those who have reached some ultimate level of truth have no choice but to be strong, and that is why Habitz is also strong.
‘So you were very lonely.’ It is safe to say that I was bored.
In any case, there were probably only a handful of people in the world who would communicate with Havitz.
‘On the other hand, it’s a match made in heaven.’
Abella puffed out her cheeks.
“what? Anyway, I can’t believe I agreed so easily. “Do you know what marriage is?”
“Of course I know. “Because I like you too.”
Habitz stood up, grabbed Abella’s shoulder and spoke seriously.
“I want to marry you.”
The childhood friends I met at the beach when I was young promised to become husband and wife after 14 years.
The heat wave that had dominated the summer has gradually subsided, and fall has arrived with colored leaves.
The war was still fierce, but preparations for the emperor’s marriage were in full swing within the Gustavian Empire.
“Long live your Majesty the Emperor! Long live!”
Flower gardens, which Abella likes, were laid out on every street, and a nationwide celebration procession was held.
20 days before the wedding, Crouch made his move while Emperor Marsac was getting dressed up.
Beopsal was held in his hands as he roamed the complex streets of the ceiling as freely as at home.
‘Change target.’
Minerva said.
“The reason why Alpha Fish is important is because he is the person who can approach Habitz the closest. “But you can’t go in with Beopsal in your possession.”
You could hide other items inside your body, but you couldn’t carry a knife with you for months.
“That’s why we need a transport team.” El Crouch.
“Before sending the alpha fish, an expert will first settle down inside the imperial castle. And I’m passing on Habitz and Abella’s ‘Beopsal’.”
Sirone asked.
“The transport team cannot reach Havitz. “It’s impossible to contact them, so how can we get through this?”
“Use retargeting.” Minerva took out < Beopsal >.
“The dagger absorbs the murderous intent of its bearer and twists the law. But what happens if the target changes midway?”
Sirone was also questionable.
“For example, what if I stab Uo Rin while activating < Boksal > to kill you, Shirone?”
“What happens?”
“The killing intent contained in the dagger does not change. However, the possessor’s murderous intent is reset. Of course, this in itself doesn’t mean much. “But if the dagger is destroyed, it’s a different story.”
“They said extinction was impossible.”
“okay. Even if it is destroyed, < Dharma Flesh > will reappear in a completely random place.”
Iruki said.
“But if you reset it, you can artificially manipulate the place where < Beopsal > appears.”
“That’s right. < Beopsal >, which is destroyed in the initialization state, appears to the person who best matches the murderous intent contained in the dagger. Therefore, we can deliver ‘Beopsal’ to Alpha Fish through the law.”
This is ‘retargeting’.
‘Run time is 20 days later, at the beginning of the wedding. Until then, < Beopsal > must be reset and turned on.’
Currently, the murderous intent of Beopsal is directed at Habitz, but there is no significant change in the law.
‘That’s why it’s such a difficult enemy.’ It may mean that it cannot be killed by any means,
but to Crouch, it felt as if Beopsal was waiting for its moment.
‘The person I will kill is Catenia.’
Crouch, who had already killed the maid named Orphea and lived her life, attempted another transformation.
‘It’s best to be Catenia. If we do that, we can get closer to Havitz.’
When Abella became engaged to Habitz, Catenia became her maid and lived a prosperous life.
‘It’s here.’
Crouch arrived at Abella’s room and landed in the hallway through a vent in the ceiling.
The only source of light was the torch hanging on the wall.
‘Alpha Fish probably doesn’t know. Well, it might be better not to tell.’
The law was so sensitive and subtle that even a slight change would have been irreversible.
“Did the thief cat sneak in here?”
Crouch had no heart, but pretended to heave his shoulders at superhuman speed.
‘Damn before I knew it.’
When I looked back, Natasha, a one-man combat doll from Gustav’s Four Arts, was standing with her head tilted.
“Oh, Natasha. hello.”
Anyway, Crouch was a maid named Orphee, so she bowed politely.
“You are truly amazing.”
Orphée asked back with a puzzled expression.
“yes? What do you mean…
“Wow, this is awesome! I don’t feel any awkwardness at all! “It’s a really great performance.”
He was none other than the shadow of Kashan’s Emperor Theraze, but he did not even think of such thoughts.
‘How did know?’ As if reading Crouch’s thoughts, Natasha said with a sad expression.
“I was caught by the Balkan standard. “Once a month, they hire an assassin to kill you.”
In order to make up for the shortcomings of being unable to catch Dansu, he took the risk of assassination once a month.
‘If there are more assassins, my life becomes a military crisis.’
Crouch was expecting this too, so he wasn’t embarrassed and showed his true colors.
“So you came to kill me?”
Even though her appearance, attitude, and voice were the same, Natasha felt like she was seeing a completely different person.
“It’s really amazing. I just got goosebumps. Anyway, that’s true. But I told you to find out who sent the assassin. “Find out whether the assassination target is His Majesty or Abella.”
‘I feel comfortable because I have an honest personality.’
They kept repeating unnecessary things, but at the same time, I felt ignored.
“I’ll tell you.”
Crouch took out < Beopsal > from inside the maid’s uniform.
“After cutting off his head.”
“Kkkkkkkkk! “That’s good too.”
As expected, Natasha was not nervous, but it was an opportunity for Assassin to take advantage of the situation.
‘That’s interesting. Natasha…
Anyone can change the target anyway, but if you can split it to Natasha, the success rate of assassination will skyrocket.
‘If that’s the case, it wouldn’t be a waste to break at least one doll.’
Since everyone has one life, Crouch, who has two lives, can perfectly stab the opponent’s blind spot.
“Then shall we begin?”
As Natasha lowered her center of gravity by bending her legs, her arms slowly rose above her shoulders.
“The Shinigami’s martial arts.”
