138 – Skip Keeper

-Kiki.

“Welcome! Glory to Her Majesty the Queen!”

“Shhh! It’s too loud. You must have notified others, right?”

“Excuse me. I haven’t told anyone except Adela, the owner of the mansion. Not even Veronica.”

“Thank you for accepting such an unreasonable request. Everyone must be very tired…”

It was late when everyone was asleep.

The Queen of Merveus, who appeared in a fancy carriage as the door of House Martina opened.

Merveus di Diana.

The reason she visited Martina Street at such a late hour was simple.

‘…She can’t lift her head as the queen of a country.’

It wasn’t that Queen Diana neglected her preparations for war.

However, the human army suddenly infiltrates through a non-standard magic tool called a gate induction device.

And the forces of the Dimension finally revealed themselves.

It was something other than a strategy in which either side or any country had no choice but to be defeated helplessly.

As a result, the protests of the subjects who came in for the stability of the country and the actions of the group of former citizens who had been guiding them were finished, calming everyone down,

It was only now that I had arrived at Hannah Martina Street.

“I should have come a little earlier…”

As Queen Diana heard,

They had already experienced several battles.

Of course, there were many people who were injured in the process, and when I heard that there were even students from the academy, my heart sank.

FYI, despite the situation, Raka Ella also returned to her royal family from her academy and watched and learned how to deal with her current situation by her side.

… To deal with it, I was just being led here and there by the situation.

No matter what, it was best to do the best I could as a queen.

Although she was so tired that she couldn’t sleep properly for the past few days, it was also because she had to take on the responsibility of being the king of a country.

It was the position I wanted,

It wasn’t a position I got on my own.

‘…Adela.’

It was then.

“… Huh?”

While moving secretly to Adela’s room following the guidance of the servant.

– Hui Ying.

The moment the wind blows the leaves and inadvertently raises its head.

-…

“…”

Our eyes met.

A boy looking this way through the window on the third floor.

“…Sister?”

“Uh… Kayla. Go to Adela’s room first.”

“Yes? Then sister…”

“Wait… Just a moment. I’m going somewhere.”

In the sudden action of Queen Diana,

Kaela, of course, even the servant who was guiding the two of them, sent a puzzled look.

“… I see.”

Soon after, the old man who followed the queen’s gaze and looked out the window on the third floor cleverly bowed her head as if he understood the queen’s intentions.

“The stairs to the 3rd floor are quick to enter through this passageway. Kaela-sama will guide you to the center.”

“…Thank you.”

“Sister? Sister…?!”

Sorry Kaela, but I didn’t have time.

I met Adela as soon as possible to hear about the strategy and the situation, and since Adela must have been tired, it would have been better to give her a break.

But…

“…Huh!”

If not now, until the battle is over. Or, even after the battle is over, there may not be a chance to meet and talk alone.

-Tadadak!

With the hem of her dress pulled up, she walks up the stairs two at a time.

How long has it been since you moved your body in such a hurry?

In the past, he didn’t know that he was of royal lineage.

When I was a tomboy, I used to play freely with her children.

From noble mtl dot com

But since he was crowned queen,

No matter how urgent. No matter how frustrated I was, I couldn’t let everyone know that I was in a hurry.

If the person standing above everyone is in a hurry, the people below them will also be in a hurry.

Relax. Leisurely.

…Seriously.

But no one was looking at me now.

-Tagak!

A sense of refreshment spreads from the sound of high heels hitting the hallway.

She felt her heart lift for some reason as she frantically climbed her stairs.

“…Hah. Hah.”

Before she knew it, in the blink of an eye, she had reached the hallway on the third floor.

-Ttogak.

Adela’s mansion was a place I had visited relatively often.

On the third floor, there is only a library and a distribution warehouse. There was no room for people.

-Ttogak.

Turning around the corner, she turned towards the room hidden in the corner of Lai’s sister, whom she had visited before.

Then…

Ttogak.

“… The queen?”

“Hello. Brother Lai.”

Her best friend’s younger brother, who defended her checkpoint at the cost of her own body.

I was able to meet a little hero.

**

-Ttogak.

‘…Huh?’

It’s a big deal.

I can’t hear footsteps on the third floor where my room is.

Besides, this sound…

-Ttogak.

It was different from men’s shoes or low-pitched flat shoes for servants.

If I’m not mistaken, the sound of women’s high heels.

Since it is currently an exhibition situation,

There was no way there was a woman wearing high heels.

And…

Ttogak.

The main character of the footsteps turned the corner and appeared right in front of her.

“…Queen?”

It was someone you couldn’t even imagine.

“Hello. Brother Lai.”

Princess Diana.

Although I am acquainted with Adela, I have seen her face a few times. She was a country’s princess.

‘No, that’s not what’s important.’

Obviously, after getting off the wagon and following the servant’s guidance, I watched them move somewhere.

Not even 30 seconds had passed since our eyes met by chance.

There’s no way the servant was guiding me to where I am,

Even if he came to see me right after our eyes met, it would have been too fast.

Yes or no,

Princess Diana approached me with her silver hair that glistened in the moonlight.

“What are you doing not sleeping yet? Sending deep eyes through the window.”

“That… I just can’t sleep. Those deep eyes…”

“I’m kidding. Just kidding.”

-Sueuk.

Queen Diana comes, pushing her body through a window frame that is wide for one person but narrow for two.

“…What are you doing here?”

“I just wanted to… Talk to you. Can you move a little further to the side?”

Reluctantly, I squeezed my body leaning in the middle of her inward,

She put her weight on the window sill and leaned against her with a mischievous smile uncharacteristic of a queen.

‘This is why sister’s characters…!’

Hook!

When the distance is close enough to touch the skin,

The fabric of the luxurious dress tickles the crotch of the pants, and the smell of high-end perfume stings your nose.

“…”

“I heard. A report of a man with a sword of light who was blocking the front of the checkpoint alone.”

“Yes?”

“That. It’s Rai’s brother. He said he lay down for two days.”

Of course, since it happened in Merveus, it should have reached Queen Diana’s ears, but…

“…I didn’t do it alone.”

“Still. Thanks to you, I was able to minimize the civilian casualties. As the king, I thought I should express my gratitude.”

“It’s okay. I didn’t ask for anything like this.”

“…That’s why I’m more grateful.”

“…”

“Looking at it, Brother Lai is strange. He’s always so zealous… He doesn’t care about himself. And yet he doesn’t have any greed for fame or money.

It’s like…”

He is like a person who is looking only at the distant future and running.

Flinch!

This queen.

Uselessly sharp predictions.

She was vague about answering anything, and above all, she was dumbfounded by the fact that the queen, who was busier than anyone else, dared to come up to me and say thanks.

“… It’s just like that! I don’t have a title right now, so I can’t give it to you. As you can see, the territory in the country is in this situation…”

Instead!

“If this incident is settled, I will definitely offer a reasonable reward. This is a promise I make as the queen of the country.”

Chuck!

In the image of Queen Diana proudly sticking out her breasts and passing her little finger,

As if involuntarily bewitched, I held out her left hand and hung up her little finger.

-Ssik.

“Sure. I don’t have much time… Oh! And.”

Please take good care of Jinha.

Finally,

The meeting with the queen, which had been as sudden as a midsummer night’s dream, came to an end.

“… What was it?”

Staring blankly at the little finger and thumb of her left hand, which are still warm,

I walked into the room.

-Fluffy!

I went outside for a while to get some fresh air,

For some reason, my mind only got more complicated.

I don’t know if it’s thanks to you though.

“… Leah.”

– Yes?

A little bit. It felt like my mind had been cleared.

“I have a question for you.”

..

..

..

**

After a while.

“…”

Jerbug.

After a rather long conversation with Leah,

I moved a heavy step to the second floor.

-…Teouk.

We arrived at the administrative office located inside the second floor.

To be more precise, this was Veronica’s room for the night.

As expected,

Although it was quite late, light was still seeping through the cracks in the door.

She must be wrapping her head until late at night to get the best number for tomorrow.

Seeing that there is no response even when knocking,

Looks like you’re pretty focused…

-Kikik…

In order not to surprise Veronica,

Slowly. She opened the door very slowly and walked inside.

Now then.

“…Who?!”

The sound of the door opening startled Veronica as she looked this way and screamed.

Oops, I deliberately opened it slowly to avoid this.

For some reason, it became like a horror movie.

“That… That’s me!”

“Who am I!”

“Raiyo!”

“…Rye?”

Sug-

Let’s quickly say the name and fly near the light.

Only then did Veronica check my face and tilt her head with a slightly relieved expression.

“…Not sleeping?”

“It’s just that I can’t sleep. You’re the headmaster, aren’t you sleeping?”

“…I am.”

Veronica’s gaze turns to all sorts of materials on the table.

From materials about plants randomly picked up from the Martina family library,

A map showing the terrain around the Beinhard Mansion in detail. There are even old books about gates.

“…”

“Wouldn’t it be better to do it together than alone? He’s one of the people who knows the most about the flower among us.”

“Haa… You are too…”

-Kiik.

“… The body.”

“Yes?”

“Are you feeling better?”

“Well… So-so.”

Recently, it seems that Veronica’s attitude toward me has strangely changed.

I think she has become a little more brusque… In other words, she seems a little more friendly…

Well, it didn’t matter either way, so

Calmly sitting next to Veronica, she flicks through her plant catalog to see if there is any plant that matches the flower.

-Fallang.

But there’s no such thing…. Uh?

“An underworld flower. It’s a blood-sucking plant that used to be called a flower of hell. It’s subtly similar to that plant. Of course, it only existed in the distant past, so it was written in ancient texts that only I could read.”

“… Certainly. Similar.”

“Right… And about one of the features of the underworld…”

I thought it was some kind of alien plant,

Unexpectedly, it was a plant that had been discovered in the past. Of course, the flowers and size of the apocalypse were so close to ordinary plants that they couldn’t even be compared, but…

“…Around the underworld fire. The frequency of appearance of gates was remarkably high.”

In the past, if you found the underworld, there was a gate nearby, so run away or report it to the police. The description

Was written on it.

A flower calling the gate.

After Gate was summoned like that, the security forces at the time started subjugation. In other words, the current guild members have uprooted all of the underworld fire,

As a result, it became an extinct plant rarely seen in modern society.

“…”

Perhaps, it may be after Veronica alone has already discovered a plausible way to break up.

As expected, an ancient witch.

But the main purpose of my visit to Veronica is actually…

‘That’s it.’

Pieces of the hologram placed on the map to the left of Veronica.

It was a magic horse that marked the arrangement of forces for this battle.

“The head of the school.”

“…Why.”

“I have something to tell you.”

With this.

All preparations were over.

What remains is the coming tomorrow.

‘… Do I have to die?’

All that remained was to end this damn war.
