84. Ermel (5)

“Professor Lucas!”

“Professor Lucas!”

Upon arriving at Beit’s palace, a familiar voice is heard.

It is definitely the return procession of Laonis III, the king of Hermel.

However, what they are looking for is not Laonis III, but me- Lucas.

It is unavoidable.

Because they are not from Ermel.

“President Alan, Saint Karin.”

The Royal Knights who should have been guarding this place were all on their way back from Grasco with Laonis III.

The vacancy in Ermel’s power, which had been emptied, was filled by the Society and Berth.

This is the reason why my name is being shouted out of their mouths instead of King Laonis III, who has no one face to face.

“You suffered.”

“Really, as you said, the demons were on the verge of taking over Kadein.”

Fortunately, only a few of them have been turned into mines, and it is said that they were able to subdue them without difficulty.

“Even the divine powers could not stop Minhwa. Those who have become demons because of… … .”

Karin lowered her gaze with a look of regret.

“Hey, big, big.”

When he heard about the general situation, King Laonis III coughed in vain as if to appeal his presence.

As he intended, his eyes turned to him.

“Nice to meet you, I am the lord of Ermel, Laonis Terian Ermel III.”

Alan frowned at his appearance and looked at me.

The question is whether I should accept this stupid greeting.

He simply nodded his head quietly.

“Alan.”

“It is an honor to meet President Alan, President of the Society. Before Jim was the monarch of a country, he was a knight. I have always admired the president of the Society, who is considered the best knight on the continent.”

Alan’s expression wrinkled even more when he introduced himself as a ‘knight’. As you must have already heard everything, King Raonis III’s self-confidence as a knight seemed unfavorable to Alan.

However, Laonis III shifted his gaze before he even noticed it.

“And this one… … .”

The eyes of King Laonis III fixed on Karen stood out.

Those eyes look pretty good to me… … It was unpleasant.

“Your Majesty, I understand that the situation has not yet been fully settled. Come on, take control.”

He blocked the relationship between Karen and King Laonis III, and gave him his attention.

It meant that he had to take over the operational command or take over.

“Ah, yes, yes. Hear the knights of Ermel! Draw your sword for the people of the kingdom who are groaning in their wicked tactics!”

“Yes!”

Since they were properly suppressed in the beginning, Ermel should be able to take care of the rest.

“You worked hard, everyone.”

“okay.”

“professor… … That, thank you.”

“What do you mean?”

“So… … .”

While Karen was welling, a human figure appeared from the inside of the castle gate.

“your majesty!”

“Oh, Irelin!”

Irelin Reynus Ermel, the younger sister of King Laonis III and Princess of Ermel.

“Girl, I am extremely happy that you returned home safely.”

“Are you worried about this brother?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“That heart is really young.”

To others, it may seem like a thrilling reunion between siblings, but in reality it is not.

Irelin was probably the person who most wished that King Laonis III would not return safely from this Ermel.

The princes also show their faces behind her.

“your majesty!”

“Yeah, these cute guys.”

Laonis III lovingly embraces his younger brothers.

That too is nothing but smoke.

Not only Laonis III, but also the innocent princes- everything is acting.

* * *

“Come on, everyone, you’ve worked so hard all this time! We have prepared a special party for you, so please drink and enjoy to your heart’s content.”

The first thing Laonis III did after the palace was to hold a party.

I wonder what kind of party it was in this uproar, but it was all a struggle for King Laonis III to live.

Although they returned to Ermel, the fact that their entourage still wanted their own life did not change.

Whether it was the nobles carrying the little prince on their backs, or the Duke of Equines, who had long since passed away.

One thing was clear: his position was quite precarious due to this incident.

The Royal Knights also did not express themselves, but they seemed to have considerable dissatisfaction, and even the servants who stood by them had a subtle change of attitude.

Therefore, it was necessary to focus attention on this royal castle.

To be exact, Laonis III, himself.

A party is the best way to do that.

The Knights of the Society and the Paladins of Bert drove out the demons of Kadane on behalf of the Knights of Ermel, including the Royal Knights, and protected Beit until now, and Lucas broke through the demon corps and safely delivered Laonis III to Beit here. escorted

Perfect for the reason.

“Come on, Jim will pour you a glass of wine, so please enjoy the taste of Ermel’s special wine.”

Besides, alcohol is a natural law at parties.

Ermel’s liquor is famous for its sweetness and strong alcohol content.

No matter how much per week it was, in front of Ermel’s alcohol, it became irrelevant.

The atmosphere heats up in the passing drinking glasses.

“President Alan, how do you like the taste of alcohol?”

“Write… … Well, that’s fine.”

Hermel’s special wine was enough to melt Alan, who hated King Laonis III.

Karen, who had eaten several cups of sweet taste, is also in a state of intoxication.

Everyone is enjoying the party.

Everyone is intoxicated with alcohol and the atmosphere.

‘… … And drunkenness can lead to unexpected accidents.’

Laonis III’s eyes gleamed gloomily.

* * *

The party continued into the night.

At this moment when everyone was drunk, a shadow quietly left the party hall.

Those footsteps were moving secretly into the depths of my inner self.

Eventually, the shadow arrived in front of the huge door and stood there for a long time.

how much time has passed

As if determined, he reached out and grabbed the door handle.

“I wouldn’t open it.”

“!!!”

A shadow suddenly heard a voice- no, Irelin turned around in amazement.

In the pitch-black darkness-

Again-

An In-young appeared.

It was as if it was a lie that he had not noticed the presence until a while ago – exuding a huge presence and appearing in front of Irelin.

“… … Lucas… … professor.”

“Princess Mama.”

Showing courtesy with the perfect Ermelian etiquette, he boasted a more artistic figure than any other art work that was spread out behind him like a background.

“Can we talk for a moment?”

* * *

Irelin.

After killing all of her own flesh and blood, she ascended to the throne – the iron-blooded queen.

The woman in front of me was such a woman.

After killing all his brothers, he becomes the only royal and sits on the throne of Ermel.

And she ascended the throne.

come true

That was the cause of Ermel’s downfall.

The reason why the Eastern Front, including Aerokk, would completely collapse.

Moongrak-

She carefully set the teacup in front of me.

“I don’t know if it will fit in your mouth.”

Beyond the rising smoke, her face is quite anxious.

“Professor is having a party… … Wasn’t it fun?”

“I am not a party fanatic.”

“Ahh… … .”

An awkward silence descends.

“Ah, thanks for saving His Majesty… … do. I heard that you dealt with the demon corps at the border by yourself. Really, that’s great.”

“Really?”

“yes?”

Fatigue, laughter leaked out.

The support of readers is also support, but

Because I know very well how that woman usurped the throne, and how great her deep-rooted hatred for Laonis III was.

“Uh, how are you laughing, Professor Lucas?”

she asked in a trembling voice.

“Forgive the rudeness, Mama. It’s just Mama’s beauty that made me smile.”

But I couldn’t cast ‘You don’t like your brother, do you?’

“Ah, um… … .”

As if Irelin was not immune to such compliments, her face turned red and she stroked her face and fanned her hands.

“Why were you there?”

“Because I think Mama will be there. Why did Mama come there?”

“Yeah, I went to check the beds of my brothers… … .”

Irelin’s speech became more and more blurry, and then she shut her mouth tightly.

His eyes were wrinkled and sad.

“You don’t have to force yourself to do something you don’t want to do.”

“!!”

She was startled by my words.

Irelin doesn’t know if it’s my older brother Laonis, but he doesn’t hate half-brothers.

Rather- the reason she is still alive was her half-brothers.

Then she tried to kill the reason with my own hands now.

Of course, it wasn’t her will.

To be precise, it was the will of ‘the younger brothers’.

<Ah. cloth. In Mang, King Laonis III sadly abuses his younger brothers, who beg them to kill themselves.

With tears in her eyes, she listened to the wishes of her sisters.

It won’t be much different now.

The princes must have endured harsh abuses with their young bodies, and the return of King Laonis III must have been terrifying.

He would have fallen asleep crying, and Irelin would have tried to grant the wishes of his younger brothers.

… … They didn’t even know that it was Laonis III’s scheme.

The actions of these siblings were the result of the psychological abuse of King Laonis III over many years.

He knows how to control these siblings to his own will – better than anyone else.

A night when everyone is drunk.

The princess got drunk and killed the little princes, who had always made excuses for my brother’s hostile forces-

This must have been the scenario Laonis III envisioned.

All the rightful heirs to the throne are killed by her, leaving only Laonis III and Irelin in the royal family.

In that case, in Ermel, who seeks ‘authenticity’, the existence that threatens his throne will disappear.

Irelin left behind, but he doesn’t even care about Irelin.

They didn’t even think of it as a threat in the first place.

That arrogance eventually led to his tragic end.

‘That’s a later story, and in the future that must happen – the ‘process’ needs to be changed.’

What is important here is not how she will become King of Ermel in the future, but how to keep her from going crazy even after ascending the throne.

Moreover, at a time when the Igner front was moved to Ermel and her existence became more important for Grasco’s well-being, her spirit became the most important task for me.

“The party is not over yet. let’s go I will escort you.”

Once again, she needs to bring her back in front of people without thinking about anything else.

He got up from his seat and reached out to her.

Irelin stared blankly and took my hand.

The party isn’t over yet.

* * *

The night of madness passed, and the next day came.

Laonis III was waiting for news that should have been there last night.

But-

There was no news waiting to be heard.

“Irelin.”

He called Irelin.

He had already woken up and was waiting for the call of King Laonis III.

‘Let’s not tremble.’

– You don’t have to force yourself to do something you don’t want to do.

Last night, the words of Lucas that pierced the corner.

For some reason, his words kept ringing around.

After being lightly decorated, Irelin appeared before King Laonis III.

As she was just washing her face, her neat charm stood out.

“Come closer.”

At Laonis III’s words, Irelin drew closer to him little by little.

With every step I took, an indescribable disgust swelled up.

“You must have hoped that your brother wouldn’t come back.”

“… … .”

She didn’t say anything.

“It would be disgusting. I want you to die.”

“… … .”

Still didn’t answer.

match!

His hand ruffled Irelin’s cheek.

Her cheeks swelled red and her lips burst open and she fell to the floor.

“Oh, Irelin. my brother.”

Laonis III approached Irelin, who had fallen, and grabbed his chin and turned.

“Now that my brother has come, I will continue to work very hard on the education of you and your brothers.”

When the younger sisters mentioned it, her eyes began to waver.

“You must protect your brothers. I will protect you in my own way.”

Blood leaked from Irelin’s chapped lips, staining his fingertips.

“Ahh… … .”

He looked at his tainted hands, as if they had been poisoned.

“Lungs, Your Majesty. sinned to death. Please be merciful.”

She quickly fell down and begged.

“Forgiveness? no. Forgiveness solves nothing. Only reasonable punishment is a corporation that produces true repentance. Punishment for this—don’t let it come later.”

“Oh, no. Now, right now, drop it on me. your majesty. please.”

When she decided to postpone the punishment until later, her complexion became even more contemplative.

She crawled and hung on his feet.

“Your Majesty, please… … I’ll just take it. I beg you like this Yeah? your majesty… … .”

The ‘later’ he refers to does not simply mean that the punishment is delayed.

The arrow will be directed at the brothers.

no.

Irelin hung desperately.

“okay? If so, let me punish you now.”

He raised Irelin’s chin.

That gaze slyly scanned Irelin.

But at that moment.

“your majesty.”

A low, cool voice pierced his ears.

Again-

A huge battle, casually walking in – a damn beautiful existence.

“Professor Lucas.”

I definitely remember drinking a lot.

Others hangover and are still babbling.

However, Lucas was approaching with an overflowing dignity, with straight steps, without any disturbance.

“The princess was here too.”

“What’s going on?”

To the question of King Laonis III, Lucas answered with a truly picturesque smile.

“I’m here to find my missing partner.”

“… … partner?”

Lucas passed Laonis III, bent over and stretched out his hand towards Irelin, who was lying on the floor.

“Didn’t you promise yesterday? When the sun comes up, they tell me to take a look at this bait.”

“That, so… … .”

Have you had such a conversation?

Irelin just stared blankly at Lucas.

In the meantime, Laonis III intervened.

“Professor, it’s impossible now. Next-“

“Next… … .”

Lucas faintly removed his hand and got up, looking at King Laonis III, and opened his mouth.

“You mean after you ruined my partner?”

His eyes were tinged with coolness.

* * *

“… … Thank you, Professor.”

“I just wanted you to keep your promise to me.”

The princess stood next to me with her hair covering her swollen cheeks and chapped lips.

“Sister, are you two going on a date now?”

… … And the three little princes of Ermel were also there.

“What, what, what, a date? I can’t stand it.”

Irelin stuttered in embarrassment and answered the prince’s prank questions.

It only tastes like teasing.

I need some help.

“Since you guys are together, technically, it’s not a date.”

“Then what should I call you?”

After pondering for a moment at their innocent question, he opened his mouth.

“People call this ‘outing’.”

“ah! I know that. nanny told me You go out with your family and spend time together, right?”

“That’s right.”

“I’ve never done it before!”

“You will do it today.”

With that said, I walked around Beit with these four people.

We bought and ate street food and looked at the sights.

“Wow!”

“Sister, look at that! It’s amazing!”

“Yeah, that’s amazing!”

The four of you really enjoyed the freedom you felt for the first time in your life.

I ate the snacks sold on the street with admiration as if they were heavenly food, and I was delighted by reacting violently to small sights.

“Come on, every day is not an opportunity that comes every day! Everyone, do you know Lucas, the ‘hero of the Eastern Front’?”

at that time-

I stopped walking when I heard my name from somewhere.

There, people flocked like clouds.

“sister! There are a lot of people over there. Let’s go over there, okay?”

“Hey, guys… … .”

The three princes are just begging.

Irelin looked at me perplexed, but I’m also interested in it.

“I am okay.”

“Wow! Professor Lucas, you are the best!”

“best!”

Through the crowds with my three little ones, I arrived at the place where my name was heard.

A merchant with flabby muscles gathered people and was giving a one-on-one speech.

“The item brought today is a source from which Lucas can exert his powerful power! I brought that secret, I mean.”

hoo.

“Exactly this! If you drink a bottle of this medicine consistently every day, you can become as strong as Professor Lucas! That’s it.”

“Hey, how do you believe that?”

“Hey, you can’t believe what people say. Come on, let’s see… … Oh, you nobleman there.”

It was me that the janitor was pointing at.

“I mean?”

“Yes, Confucius. You look like the son of a noble family, can I take you here once?”

“Wow!”

There is a lot of anticipation in the eyes of the little ones.

I too was curious what they would do, so I decided to hang out with them.

“Now, as you can see, this master. You look very elegant and dignified! Look. A little bit of power… … .”

People burst into laughter at his rudeness.

“Now, just in case you don’t know, let’s do a simple test. Get this here.”

He handed the hammer and pointed to the pile of rocks beside him.

“Come on, Master. Simple. Hit these rocks hard with this hammer! You can just drop it.”

“With this hammer?”

“yes!”

I looked at the sledgehammer.

This hammer-

‘It’s not good.’

Because it was a really bad fake.

To be honest, it wasn’t even a hammer.

At first glance, it’s a hammer, but he’s not a robber who can break that rock.

In other words- it’s kind of a well-crafted showmanship.

Show that you can’t break that rock, then give it a potion, then use a real hammer and brittle rock to show the potion’s performance – a very cheap trick.

“Come on, Master. If you just crush that rock with this hammer, I will give you a very, very special gift.”

“special present?”

“If the master breaks this rock, this set of rings! Would it be perfect for a couple with the beautiful lady who came with you?”

The ring set he took out.

It was a classy looking ring.

‘What is this?’

But in my eyes it is visible.

Worth this ring.

‘In what kind of ring a light like this… … .’

Torres, or perhaps the same level of light that I had seen from Xenon, was blurring my vision.

“… … You mean just break this rock, right?”

“That’s right.”

wow.

Without hesitation at his answer, he grabbed the hammer.

And then he lifted it high and slammed it down.

Aww-!

The rock was turned into powder.

“Let me thank you for the ring.”

The vendor had his mouth wide open, so he kindly closed his mouth to prevent dust from entering.
