Chapter 334. How to use revelation (2)
Angels.
Beautiful and holy celestial spirits.
Beings known to encourage warmth and goodness in this world, punish evil spirits, and save humans.
However, King Alicia had never believed in the existence of angels.
never once in my life.
Absolutely no.
‘of course. angel? If there was such a thing, why would there be so many misfortunes, unfortunate accidents, sad separations, and unfair deaths in this world?’
I could have believed a hundred times that there was a hell.
After all, this world is a fucking place.
Suddenly, he remembered the days before he ascended to power.
He was originally from a distant collateral of the royal family.
He was also at the bottom of the line of succession to the throne.
Gearco overtook its competitors one by one.
became the final winner.
In the process, I had to go through all sorts of dirty strife and trickery.
Sometimes I even got my hands dirty.
In the process, it came naturally to me.
There is a hell in this world, but there is no heaven.
Even if Satan possesses people, there will never be an angelic grace.
As such, in the eyes of King Alicia Terrmina Magentano, this world was a mess full of insidious conspiracies and scheming and selfishness.
It was the same even now.
“….”
An angel who suddenly descended.
A dazzling presence that scatters holy light in every corner of the Ruler’s Hall.
The king’s gaze at the angel grew cold.
An angel folds his wings of light.
Landing on the red carpet.
Throwing a neat glance in all directions.
The moment you finally open your mouth with a beautiful voice.
She grabbed the handle of the sword at her waist.
And I thought.
that wouldn’t be an angel
If the angels are really right.
that he would be able to receive his sword.
The moment you embrace that thought and live with it.
The angel looked back at her.
Our eyes met.
“The king of men. I am neither an object of caution nor an object of worship, so please withdraw your hostility.”
“….”
“I’ve only come to convey the will of the heavens, and I have no other business.”
“….”
King Alicia let go of the sword.
Because of the angelic momentum?
It wasn’t.
‘Could it be that angel or something? Doesn’t it have something to do with Lloyd Frontera?’
Suddenly, I had such doubts.
It was in the middle of discussing state affairs with his subjects.
I heard about Lloyd Frontera’s visit without any warning.
I heard that he asked for an audience.
readily agreed.
‘After all, Lloyd Fronte is a public servant of the royal family. Besides, the closer I get to him, the more I can gain an advantage.’
The gods do not know.
Although most people in the kingdom do not know about it.
In fact, the power of Lloyd and the Prontera family had already surpassed that of the royal family.
But still, I didn’t go over this one.
I didn’t even rebel.
I want to live leisurely like an unemployed man.
Asking for cooperation to protect such an unemployed life.
Lloyd was the one who willingly took on the role of a political partner with this side.
So I thought it was just fine.
It is a place where the servants gather.
He said he thought that if he accepted Lloyd’s request for an audience, a good picture would come out.
So he accepted his audience.
He tried to further solidify his political symbiosis with Lloyd.
‘But just as the audience was about to begin, a being like that appeared out of nowhere.’
Is that really a coincidence?
I thought it would never be.
‘Lloyd Frontera. What do you think?’
Her eyes turned to Lloyd.
But Lloyd didn’t look at her.
Only the chestnut-like back of his head was visible and his head was bowed down.
That somehow seemed even more sleazy.
It was so bad that I wanted to run right away and give it a hit.
‘Are you sure. This situation is obviously concocted by the author. would have designed as it has often been in the past. While rolling that nasty head. To get something out of me again.’
Lloyd’s experiences so far came to mind.
It was always like this.
It seems like it’s not going to show up.
It seems to cross a precarious line.
Each time, he would show off an exquisite tightrope.
That’s how I ended up getting what I wanted from this side.
It was like that recently too.
‘The heart of winter.’
Originally, it was a sacred object of the Magentano royal family.
However, it is now owned by the author.
Although, of course, the author did not take it on purpose.
In any case, it turned out that way.
‘But are you trying to get something from me again? Is the heart of winter not enough?’
King Alicia’s gaze at Lloyd sharpened.
A faint sneer formed on his lips.
‘If you see Jim so easily, Jim may also change his mind.’
So let’s see.
This bizarre and dramatic situation.
This exquisite atmosphere seems to have been designed by Lloyd Frontera.
Let’s take a look at the reality of the author’s work in this.
With that promise, King Alicia’s eyes flashed.
That moment.
The descending angel spread its wings of light.
Lloyd approached willingly.
said in a holy voice.
“You, Lloyd Frontera, the human of the underworld. Please keep your head up.”
“….”
But Lloyd didn’t look up right away.
No, I couldn’t bear to raise my head.
It was because I had to manage my facial expressions.
‘Oh yea. it’s okay. The plan succeeded as planned. So now…I shouldn’t laugh.’
He desperately bit his lip.
Even though I was trying hard, the corner of my mouth kept trying to get in my ear.
It was natural.
A place to enter the royal castle and have an audience with the king.
It was because the plan to descend the angels of the heavens to this place was executed properly.
‘As expected, Archangel. Sacred celestial worker captain who does not lie! I believed it!’
maybe if
I was worried about what would happen if the archangel broke his promise.
Fortunately, the archangel really brought ordinary angels here.
‘So let’s manage our facial expressions now. In this situation, the king’s sister would already be paying attention to some extent, but the other great and small ministers would not be able to do that. At least, if my intentions are found out by the servants here, it will never happen.’
promised
had a bad heart
He bit the tip of his tongue.
‘…Mud!’
It hurt so much that I burst into tears.
The smile on the corners of his lips was erased involuntarily.
Then he slowly raised his head.
With a clear expression of pain rising from the tongue, the expression was hardened.
I wrapped my desperate efforts not to show pain with wet tears.
I looked up at the angel.
“Did you brew zu zu?”
“….”
“Oh, bite your tongue…No, I was so surprised that I bit my tongue without realizing it, so I stopped. sorry. Please forgive this rudeness, Holy Angel.”
“…It’s okay.”
The angel barely laughed.
Lloyd asked casually.
“But why did you come all the way here and call me by name….”
“I just want to convey the will of Heaven to you.”
“…yes?”
Lloyd’s eyes widened.
Seeing that, the angel smiled faintly.
Suddenly, I remembered the administrative order handed down by the archangel.
He said he signed a contract with Lloyd Frontera, a human from the underworld.
According to the contract, I have to help Lloyd Frontera.
So, go down to Lloyd’s place and announce this.
Did you hand over the Celestial Scroll?
Chark!
The angel took out the Celestial Scroll from his bosom.
I read the celestial characters written on the scroll.
“Lloyd Frontera, human of the underworld. A particularly fateful revelation has been given you today. In the future, you will receive the sacred item of the Magentano royal family, ‘Summer’s Eye’.”
“yes?”
“This is an irresistible destiny, and it is the will of Heaven. more.”
Whoop-!
The moment the angel’s revelation comes down.
Brilliant light poured from the scroll.
It filled the hall and illuminated Lloyd clearly.
Everyone in the hall widened their eyes at the sight.
Someone looked at Lloyd in horror.
Some people covered their mouths with both hands without even realizing it.
Another forgot to even breathe.
The fact that an angel from heaven descended here out of nowhere was surprising.
However, even the revelation of contents that had never been imagined was given.
I couldn’t help but be surprised.
I couldn’t swallow my surprise.
Just like that, all the great and small vassals, royal guards and courtiers in the hall were enveloped in a huge silence.
between that silence.
Lloyd’s puzzled question continued.
“Are you there? angel? Wait?”
“Speak, man of the underworld.”
“yes. There it is, this situation. What is it? Why am I receiving the revelation and why is it that the revelation is about receiving royal family treasures….”
“That is only the will of heaven.”
To be precise, it must be the will of the archangel who ordered me to do this.
Humans who will not hesitate to cheat even against Satan.
Thanks to the lies you told me, the archangel has been confining himself in the chest of penitence for the time being.
Angel worked hard to manage his expression and hid his inner thoughts with elegant comments.
The more he did, the more Lloyd deliberately showed more embarrassment.
No, he showed off his acting skills by pretending to be embarrassed.
And secretly prayed.
‘Ego. Now that the revelation has come down, you can leave now. Amen! Hallelujah! Namu Amitabha Buddha!”
Did his earnest (?) prayers get eaten?
Or did he read the atmosphere through Lloyd’s eyes?
The angel looked around at everyone in the hall with a holy expression.
It was unexpectedly unconventional, so he uttered a clean and clear ending to put an end to this even more shocking situation.
“In addition, beings from the underworld who have visited this place will be witnesses to the revelation given today. Everything is according to the will of heaven.”
Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!
The moment the angel’s closing comment ends.
The most brilliant and holy light poured out in all directions.
Everyone’s retinas were touched without hesitation like a high beam on a tuning car.
sudden glare.
Everyone closed their eyes tightly.
and after a while
When you slowly open your eyes one by one.
The angel’s figure had already disappeared.
Everyone looked at each other’s faces in a strange situation that was completely unbelievable.
The bewildered expression of the person next to you that you finally see.
Maybe his expression is the same as that one.
The moment you think like that.
Finally everyone realized.
“….”
For the first time in the history of the Magentano royal family.
An angel descended upon the kingdom.
A revelation from heaven has been given.
It was an unprecedented situation.
♣
“Do you have anything else to say to Jim?”
“Mmm yep.”
“really?”
“yep.”
“sincerely?”
“yep.”
“Are you sure you can only say yep?”
“That is not true.”
“Why don’t you just answer like that?”
“Ummm, that….”
“that?”
“I couldn’t think of anything to say…I apologize.”
“Are you sorry?”
“yep.”
“….”
“yes.”
“If you can’t even answer me, I won’t hate you.”
King Alicia let out a deep sigh.
I looked at Lloyd sitting across the desk with a meaningful look.
“There is only one reason why Jim called you to the office separately. I have something to ask you.”
“What kind of things do you want to ask….”
“You must have already guessed something?”
“Yes, I am.”
“If you do, tell yourself.”
“Yes, Your Highness. You are not trying to question me because of the angel who descended earlier.”
“It is correct.”
A smirk crossed the king’s lips.
Soon, her eyes grew colder.
“How on earth did the unexpected descent of an angel occur at the moment when you, who came without a message, had an audience with me?”
“….”
“Could it really be just a coincidence?”
“….”
“Or was that even your arrangement?”
“majesty.”
“Tell me.”
“I feel unfair.”
“Are you embarrassed?”
“It is.”
Lloyd straightened his seat.
Then, he sensed signs around the office.
‘Besides the king, there are three more people nearby. Two at the door of the office. One over the closet.’
All were royal knights.
Judging by the pattern of breathing heard, their level is….
‘All of them are advanced sword experts.’
If so, you must be suffering from Sword Master Syndrome.
They must be those whose all senses, including hearing, are abnormally activated.
So, what about the conversation with the king right now?
everyone will hear them
‘Then I can’t.’
Lloyd shook his head inwardly.
The big picture you drew.
With the help of an angel, the plan came true.
It was the moment when the big puzzle of the plan had to be made together with the king.
‘That’s why secrets are so important. From now on, no one but me and the king’s sister will be allowed to enter the conversation. Even if it’s a royal knight.’
It wasn’t just for secrecy.
Guards or whoever.
From now on, no one else should listen to the story we are going to share.
It was because the mere fact that someone else was listening would create a situation in which the king would reject all proposals.
‘Now I’m going to offer a deal. But that’s because the royal family’s treasure, the Eye of Summer, is a bargain.’
But what if someone heard the content of such a negotiation?
What if the contents are known to the outside world?
King Alicia will face a formidable political headwind.
It was because the king of a country had secretly negotiated a personal deal with a subject on the terms of the transaction with the royal family’s sacred objects.
‘There’s no way those who like to find weaknesses miss such a tasty issue. Even if I were king, I wouldn’t want to be caught in such a political headwind. Whatever the content of the negotiations are, they will 100% reject them without even listening to them. It will be burdensome.’
Do you want to start negotiating?
The possibility of a political burden felt by the king because of the negotiations should be relieved.
In order to do that, from now on, no one should listen to the conversation with the king.
‘Shall we make a separate seat?’
The moment you come to that conclusion.
Lloyd quickly shook his head.
He showed his wit to the fullest.
I looked at the king with meaningful eyes.
The King Alicia Termina Magentano he knew brought up an unexpected proposal that would surely appeal to him.
“majesty. Do you have no desire to harass me and beat me to your heart’s content?”
“…what?”
King Alicia’s eyes widened slightly.
Lloyd did not miss that small change.
‘As expected, it worked.’
With a more meaningful smile attached to the corners of his lips.
Lloyd loaded his tongue with an even more irresistible offer.
