Chapter 369. Joy and joy (1)
The morning was bright.
Lloyd opened his bloodshot eyes.
“….”
My back hurts.
Shoulders are also stiff.
Also pull the thighs.
My right hand is numb and I can’t feel it.
Well, it was natural.
‘Because I’ve been lying on my stomach next to the bed in this position all night. ok.’
I literally couldn’t lie down all night.
It was the yard where the left hand of the king’s sister and the right hand of this side were tied.
But what if this side is to lie down?
He would have to lie side by side on her left side.
That meant sharing a bed.
‘If you dare to do that, your throat will get sore…Even if they fly away, they won’t have anything to say.’
In the end, there was only one option.
I had to put a chair next to the king’s sister’s bed.
I had to sit on the chair and hang my upper body on the bed in an awkward position.
Just like when I was in school, I used to fall asleep on my desk.
It is said that he went to sleep with his right hand stretched out, which was tied to the king’s sister, while lying on his stomach.
Of course, I couldn’t fall asleep.
‘I couldn’t even sleep.’
I sighed again.
My posture was so uncomfortable that I couldn’t sleep at all.
In addition, as he had declared, he had to continuously inject mana into the king’s sister’s left arm.
However, the task was more difficult than expected.
‘The king’s sister’s mana heart is bigger than mine, so it’s not usually difficult to put mana into it.’
Mana was like water or air.
It was normal to flow from high pressure to low pressure.
But what about the king’s sister’s mana pressure?
higher than this one.
Because it has a stronger and larger mana heart.
The overall mana pressure of the body was higher than this side.
That’s why I had to pay attention every moment to inject mana into the king’s sister’s left hand.
Even the slightest distraction would cause the flow of mana to flow backwards.
In other words, the king’s sister’s mana used to flow this way.
‘That won’t work. I need to keep pumping my mana. That’s why I have to forcefully circulate the mana in my sister’s left arm.’
In other words, it was a concept similar to a kind of blood transfusion.
The loss of mana supply should be minimized.
I couldn’t lose my concentration.
I had to pay attention all night.
I couldn’t sleep at all because of it.
But there was one very strange thing.
“…Is it possible that Your Highness also couldn’t sleep?”
“of course.”
When did you open your eyes
The king’s sister was still lying down, only turning her head and staring at us.
However, her eyes are somehow bloodshot red.
Like this one who couldn’t sleep all night.
Soon, a groan escaped from her mouth.
“I should have been able to fall asleep because of you.”
“…yes?”
“Sometimes it’s hot, then it’s cold, and then it stings, and sometimes it’s needlessly talking.”
“Ummm.”
“It’s about the left arm. As the mana you infused all night was forcibly circulated in my left arm, I kept getting a strange feeling.”
“I apologize for that, Your Highness.”
“It’s too bad to apologize.”
“….”
“Besides, why did you groan so much all night? I was going to ask if injecting mana is that hard, but I gave up. I was afraid that asking for no reason would put a burden on your heart.”
“Your surname is indescribable, Your Highness.”
“It’s too embarrassing.”
“….”
“Was the bed uncomfortable?”
“that….”
“I can tell you honestly.”
“Yes, it was very, very, very uncomfortable.”
“Tsk. I knew it. If you do, I will speak.”
“How dare I.”
“Are you asking me if I can lie down next to Jim and go to sleep?”
“….”
“Right. How serious is that?”
A smile creeping up on her lips.
Conversely, the chest on this side pounded the rice cake mill with nervousness.
“Your Majesty, that is truly blasphemous….”
“Isn’t it disrespectful to have already spent the night in the same bedroom with Jim?”
“….”
“You can already receive a severe punishment equivalent to treason just for what happened last night. Didn’t you have that much determination when you made last night’s proposal to Jim?”
“I embraced you, Your Highness.”
“Did you have it?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“But why are you showing such a timid side?”
“Umm, it must be because it’s in Your Highness’s presence.”
“You must have been embarrassed.”
“No!”
“Are you shy?”
“Neither he!”
“okay?”
“Of course it comes!”
“But how dare you raise your voice in my face?”
“…omg.”
“under. okay. I will fully count your heart. Seeing what you so desperately want to deny, I can see your true intentions.”
“majesty?”
“I’ll tell the chamberlain to prepare a cot for you to use. Put it by Jim’s bed. If you do, you will not be using the same bed, so you will be able to relieve a little of the burden on your heart.”
“Seo Seong-eun is embarrassed.”
“Tsk. The last name of that bastard who only finds it when he feels sorry for himself.”
The king’s sister turned around and grumbled.
Contrary to the usual look, her hair was naturally frizzy.
The eyes looking this way through the morning sunlight.
And even comfortable style pajamas.
Lloyd said hastily without even realizing it.
“Ummm, I think I need to loosen my hands for a while and change my clothes.”
“I guess so. Soon the chief chamberlain will come and be terrified as if he would faint.”
“Yes, Your Highness. At least, I think wearing normal clothes can prevent a real fainting situation.”
“Jim thinks the same way.”
The two untied their leashes.
Red lace marks on the wrist.
I messed around with it.
In the meantime, the king’s sister walked to the other side of the spacious bedroom.
Before long, the sound of clothes rustling came from beyond the simple wall.
It was probably changing into normal clothes.
In the meantime, the king’s sister’s question flew in.
“But there’s one thing I’m curious about, Jim.”
“Say goodbye, Your Highness.”
“Why is it you?”
“yes?”
“How come you, not Sir Asrahan, took on this role of tying your hands with Jim?”
The king’s sister’s question continued.
“I was tossing and turning in my sleep last night, and a question came to my mind. It’s the shrewd mental method you said. It is probably named after Lord Asrahan, so he must be much more skilled in the operation of the simbeop.”
“Yes, that’s right. majesty.”
“I guess so. Besides, he’s also a grandmaster.”
“That is also true, Your Highness.”
“But why are you with Jim?”
“Um, that….”
To be honest, I was worried that Xaviel was so handsome.
…The answer came to my mind for a moment, but I ignored it.
Instead, he gave an answer based on cool-headed reason and facts.
“As your Highness knows, he is a genius in swordsmanship.”
“I know that too. He’s not just a genius.
“Yes, it is. Perhaps he is a genius who will go down in history. That’s why.”
“Because he is so genius? Is that why you can’t understand the slowness of people like us from the same eye level?”
“That’s right, Your Highness.”
Lloyd nodded.
He said cautiously to the other side of the wall where the king would be.
“For him, the dark mind is a natural technique, like breathing. Therefore, when you see people like your Majesty and me struggling against a wall, you won’t understand easily. “Why can’t I do this easy thing? I can just do it. Why can’t I do it? Is there any particular reason why I can’t do that?”
“under. I guess so. Because the eye level is different from the start.”
“Exactly so, Your Highness.”
It was true.
Xaviel was not just a genius, but a super-genius.
That’s why you won’t understand how the king is having a hard time learning the dark simbeop.
It’s a process that he did as easily as drinking water and eating.
You won’t be able to understand why you’re having a hard time getting stuck.
“So, inevitably, a small person who can stand on eye level with Your Highness has taken on this heavy duty on behalf of Lord Asrahan.”
“Hmm.”
“Also, considering the importance of this matter, I thought that it would be advantageous to respond quickly to the situation if I came up with the plan itself and personally assisted Her Highness to observe the situation and make a decision.”
“Hmm.”
“And on the other hand, I apologize for telling you, but I am confident that I can withstand gossip better than Lord Asrahan.”
“Hmm.”
“majesty?”
“why.”
“Why do you keep putting in so many words?”
“Nothing. It was just because I suddenly thought that your excuse was really lame.”
“…yes?”
“I wonder if I can’t just say that I wanted to.”
“…yes?”
“If you don’t answer, I might want to fill today’s schedule with sparring.”
“Yes, Your Highness. I wanted to come out. I wanted to spend more time with Your Highness than Lord Asrahan. This is my sincerity.”
“Tsk. Was it because I hated Dalian that much?”
“….”
“Anyway, I understand your gratitude for worrying about Jim. So come this way now.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Gap went over the wall.
The king’s sister, dressed in casual clothes, held out her hand.
“Tie it up.”
“I understand.”
I groan for a while again.
They sweated together and tied a knot.
It was when the last knot that tied each other’s hands was safely tidied that the message came from outside the bedroom.
daughter and daughter.
A clear bell rang a couple of times outside the bedroom.
Before long, the polite voice of the head of the house was heard.
“I dare to greet Your Highness, the worthy ruler of this land.”
“Let it go.”
The king’s sister’s natural answer.
It’s probably always been like that.
While I was thinking that, the bedroom door opened.
The ladies-in-waiting to tidy up the bedroom with the chief chamberlain and to decorate the king’s sister’s attire rushed in…came to a halt.
“majesty…?”
Is it an illusion that the chief chamberlain’s words tremble?
Not so, thought Lloyd.
In fact, it was because the appearance of the chief chamberlain’s complexion turning white was vividly visible in real time.
“That Highness?”
A very flustered chieftain.
The faithful old man’s eyes moved in dismay.
I saw the king’s sister once.
I took a quick look at this.
I saw the king’s sister again.
Soon after, I glared at this.
“Hmm, big!”
In those eyes, a cough came out without my knowledge.
As usual, I tried to stay as calm as possible.
On the other hand, the king’s sister?
Unexpectedly, it was inexhaustibly natural.
“What are you so surprised about?”
“His Highness, that’s….”
“Are you surprised that Jim and Count Young-shik of Frontera stay in bed together from such an early morning?”
“That is….”
“Or were you startled by the idea that Jim and Count Youngsik of Frontera seemed to have spent the night together in the bedroom like this?”
“That is….”
“It’s okay. Your guesses are all correct.”
“Say that!”
“Tsk. No fuss. What you think has not happened. It’s just that Jim and Count Youngsik of Prontera are doing this for a reason.”
The king’s sister was much more calm and dignified than I thought.
It doesn’t seem like anything special.
It seems that there is no need to be particularly nervous.
Rather, he put a stone fastball more confidently.
“Moreover, if Jim and Count Young-shik of Frontera were like that, what would be the big deal? Are you sure you intend to even interfere with Jim’s selection of a mate?”
“That’s not it….”
“Yes, I know. They must be concerned about the prestige and face of the royal family. But just like that, it’s not a situation where you can disgrace the face of the royal family, so put your mind at ease.”
Soon after, the King of Fizik’s sister smiled bitterly.
“I assure you, Jim is undergoing a special joint training with Count Youngsik of Prontera in order to pioneer a new level of swordsmanship. You can see these hands tied to Count Young-sik here, right?”
“I see it, Your Highness.”
“These bound hands are proof. Honey, Chief Chamberlain, proceed with your morning routine as usual.”
“Name…I will support you, Your Highness. If you come here…How about the morning outfit and meals?”
“As you can see, the clothes are already prepared, and Jim will go down to eat. Ah, makeup must be helped by you guys.”
“I will follow your orders, Your Highness.”
The head chamberlain broke into a cold sweat and hung his head.
Thanks to this unforeseen catastrophic (?) situation, it seemed that he was still half-excited.
‘Whoa. Unintentionally, I caused a complete nuisance to the Chief Chamberlain.’
Seeing the chief chamberlain hurriedly withdrawing, I felt somewhat sorry.
But that was then.
“Yes and.”
The King’s sister stopped the senior chamberlain’s steps.
And even this side gave an unexpected order.
“Chief Chamberlain, send a message to the aristocratic house to let them know that I will return.”
“yes?”
The chief chamberlain’s eyes widened again as he looked back.
The king’s sister smiled at that figure and said.
“What are you so surprised about? Could it be that you thought that I would only secretly walk around like this inside the royal castle?”
“Yes, Your Highness. yea of course….”
“This is part of training, and Jim has no intention of hiding this from anyone.”
“….”
“So, like the reaction you showed when you entered the bedroom earlier, the aristocrats will also express serious questions and concerns about Jim and Count Youngsik of Frontera’s training method.
It seems like a very normal thing.
The king’s sister proudly declared.
It was as if he was announcing that in the future, if there was a guy who threw up between us, he would split his head.
