091.

National Day was canceled.

Of course, there was a public backlash.

It was a festival that they enjoyed comfortably.

Canceling it with a single stroke made me feel like I was blown away.

Still can’t help it.

Even if the incubator stopped spreading, the already born doppelganger is still alive.

“Is it okay to intensify the inspection like this?”

“It’s the first time I’ve seen it this way. They told me to clap, but they told me to laugh. I’m not mocking you.”

Even if complaints pile up, there is no difference.

The kingdom should not have left more stains on it.

Citizens may not know, but this incident will spread to high-ranking officials in each country.

If he couldn’t completely find his doppelganger here, it was obvious that Alcardo’s status would fall to a lower level than now.

“Sir Lokram. Thank you, thank you very much. If it weren’t for you, this kingdom would have fallen into a huge vortex of chaos right now.”

Duke Terren, with a more drawn-out expression than before, thanked him.

He is also busy searching for the remnants of his doppelganger.

Still, it must be because of my gratitude towards me for taking the time to wring out a dry rag.

“If it weren’t for you new stunt double, Leah would have gone through the unimaginable in that narrow, musty wine cabinet.”

Apparently, Leah’s safety was more important than this incident.

Hold my hand and shake it continuously.

She forgot her body shape and showed her daughter’s foolish appearance.

“It should have been stopped anyway.”

“You are too humble. Let me know if you need anything. I intend to give you the White Horse Tower as well.”

Is that enough trust in me?

Looking at his expression, I don’t think he’s lying.

“Of course, I mean you can give it to me when you marry Leah. ha ha ha! Don’t you know the value of the White Horse Tower too?”

Because I knew it would be like this too.

I shook my head with a thin smile.

“It is too much for me.”

“The White Horse Tower? Or Leah?”

“I should say both.”

“It doesn’t matter! Why don’t you move your seat? It looks like we should have a serious conversation about compensation.”

“Keuheum, tower lord.”

A sudden intrusive cough.

Teren’s aide, who had been waiting, opened his mouth.

“The 13th countermeasure meeting is coming soon.”

“It’s only been two days, but have you already reached the 13th round? Anyway, this country… .”

“That means it’s difficult to find a doppelganger.”

“It’s really sad that we have to postpone the conversation with the benefactor.”

Looking at me constantly, I swallow regret.

Still, search comes first.

Knowing that well, Terran held out his hand.

“I will send a servant as soon as the work is finished. Can you wait?”

“Sure.”

Even if he refuses a request, he does not refuse a reward.

It is even a reward given by the owner of the White Horse Tower, one of the most famous magic towers in the continent.

‘What am I going to tear off this time?’

I climbed the stairs with happy thoughts.

The place where I met him was an inn.

I was staying for two days because I didn’t have the stamina to walk.

As Terren disappeared, I let out the breaths I had been holding here and there in the restaurant on the first floor.

All their eyes were on me.

‘I wonder why the owner of the White Horse Tower is looking for an unknown me.’

It is an incident that has been quietly buried among citizens.

Explosion case of unknown cause.

As a result, the cancellation of the National Foundation Day had one thought among the few who recognized me.

“Just that person. Isn’t that the person who escorted the second prince?”

“I think that’s right. that nerdy guy. I thought it had changed, but it was a pure lie.”

The two princes who were brought back to life were the same.

He was still a maniac himself, and his violence was stopped by confinement in the king’s villa.

‘It’s so confusing.’

Still, everything that annoys me is gone, so it’s comfortable.

Oh, isn’t it all gone?

‘How will the warriors come out?’

Advanced Hero Jeline de Hiron.

I did it out of anger at the attitude of him and those who followed him, but I don’t know how it will turn out.

Unexpectedly, the relationship with Eun-Won has been renewed.

It would be nice to solve this well, but I wonder if there is a reason to get along well with those who do not qualify as a warrior.

‘Because if I’m active like now, I won’t be able to tackle you.’

If I had to come up with an excuse to mess with it, it would be to hire an assassin or someone from the underworld to raid it.

But if it comes out like that, it’s welcome here.

It’s a situation that can’t be completely buried because there is no justification.

But what about raids?

As proof, you can be punished severely by imperial law.

‘I wish I could please.’

With that in mind, I opened the door.

“Ah, are you here?”

“Come on.”

Today too, Leah lying around occupying my bed and Sayra scribbling something on the desk.

Leah, who forcibly upgraded my room because it was small.

Thanks to this, the bed is comfortable, but this situation is a little uncomfortable.

Conversely, the two responded that they were not at all comfortable.

“Did you meet me?”

“It was poised to pay off sooner or later.”

“Can I ask for more?”

“are you okay.”

I passed by the bed and pulled the remaining chair and sat down.

Leah turned to him and looked at me with strange eyes.

“It’s okay to lie in bed.”

“You are occupying it.”

“So you expanded it. King size.”

“ostrich. Even among colleagues, there are lines that must be observed.”

Saira said as she folded the paper.

Leah kept her expressionless and just opened the blanket to make space.

“I’m used to it, so it’s okay. Even back then, Lokram was there to take care of me.”

Are you talking about what happened when you were cursed at the academy?

Because I was cursed, I needed my aura at the time.

So I stayed by her side and took care of her.

“He lay next to me and held my hand. It was very comfortable and nice, but the professor won’t know for the rest of his life, right?”

“There is nothing in life you will never know. Isn’t it?”

Sarah looks at me.

Seeing this, Leia’s eyes narrowed.

“Once again, between professor and student.”

“Did I say anything? I know the situation at that time. So, I might be cursed while being escorted.”

“Then you are disqualified as an escort. Lokram will send it back right away? yes?”

How does the story come to be like that?

I shrugged my shoulders, keeping a calm face.

“You’re not even cursed now, are you?”

“Looking inside, it seems that a curse has permeated the circle… .”

“If that’s the case, I’ll check it out for you!”

Seira quickly got up and took the seat next to Leah instead of me.

I try to wiggle my arms and legs as if I can’t do it, but the opponent is no one else, but Seira.

It was not enough for the wizard to stop it.

‘It plays well.’

When Leah appeals to her feelings, Seira blocks her.

Other than her, it must be a mischievous prank to tease Leah.

I’m used to it now that it continues like that.

I ignored the two mixed up and approached the desk.

What she was writing was for Fenolino.

‘Are you trying to do a regular report?’

If it was like that, I would have to send it to Cloud, but why?

There must be some kind of relationship that I don’t know about.

I have no intention of digging into it.

Because Seira was an assistant who only moved in the direction that was helpful to me.

‘I should use it too.’

I have a letter for Fenolino.

I was thinking of asking for a few things to prepare for the fragments I had to deal with in the future.

I have to give it to Seira when she mails the letter.

“Ah, Lokram.”

Leah, who had become a piece of bread that was crushed by Seira, called me.

I look out the window to see if I’m going to say something different from the first request.

“There is something I want to show you. Do you have time this afternoon?”

It doesn’t matter for the next few days.

As long as he had a different mindset, he needed to rebuild his relationship with Leah.

Looking at her expression, it seems like today is the day.

“Can I join you too?”

“Saira. I’m sorry, but I want to see you alone with Leah.”

“ah… If Rokram says so, it doesn’t matter.”

Seira drooped her shoulders.

It looks like a timid puppy, but it doesn’t.

There had to be two of them to be there.

“Then let’s take a break and leave. Are you fine?”

“okay.”

Leah had a winner’s smile as if she liked my assertiveness.

***

Lokram is a talented person.

He wasn’t just limited to his abilities as a warrior, he was a man with a charm that attracted people.

So, it’s not just one or two people who are attracted to it.

All of them are of great help to Lokram or will become them in the future.

Leah had confronted Bella the other day and was able to intuit.

‘I can’t go on like this.’

She is not completely ignorant of emotions.

It’s just that you completely closed the door of your heart to others, you know everything you know.

So I felt a sense of crisis.

Lokram is terminally ill.

In order to cure it, he must have left alone in order not to worry the Aden party.

It is unknown when it will come back.

In the meantime, it is certain that Lokram, who will be traveling alone, will face many opposites.

Wouldn’t they feel the charm of Lokram that I felt?

‘I want to solidify it today.’

That’s why I called him on the pretext of my birthday.

It was unfortunate that an incident occurred along the way, but it all ended well so it didn’t matter anymore.

After all, haven’t we reached this situation?

“Isn’t Lokram cold?”

Evenings during the transition from spring to summer were still cool.

So I asked, carefully putting on the cardigan he gave me.

“Nothing. Aren’t you dressed like this?”

A precious person who walks in step with me.

I am grateful to him for wearing the clothes he recommended without saying anything.

I am grateful to him for accepting my grievances, not my own, even in the midst of a rush and pain.

It’s a feeling that I thought was dry because I didn’t reveal it to others or share it.

As long as you stay by Lokram’s side, it keeps springing up like an inexhaustible spring.

I want to express this feeling leisurely, but the immaturity of the past life keeps pushing me in a hurry.

Originally, this place should have been carefully prepared.

Still, the success must have been thanks to Lokram’s consideration and kindness.

“Here.”

“hmm.”

Tens of minutes to walk like that.

The place of memories that we finally arrived at was still there.

A huge oak tree that even covers the glow of the setting sun.

The hill with only tall old trees is neat.

The slope is gentle and the grass is soft.

The clear panoramic view gave the viewer coolness.

“When I was young, I often came here holding my mother’s hand. Whenever there was something frustrating, my mom came here holding my hand.”

“Are you okay?”

My own past and secret that I did not reveal to anyone.

When I said it out loud, Rokram worried about me as expected.

I like that familiarity, so I keep smiling thinly.

“It was difficult to understand at the time. If you feel frustrated, you should solve the problem, but instead of solving it, it seemed like you were trying to avoid it.”

“It sounds like a wizard’s idea.”

momentary silence.

Rokram continued.

“Still, given that you brought me here, your mother must have understood why.”

“that’s right.”

The wind blows.

As a result, the brim of the cone-shaped hat was raised slightly.

Making eye contact with Lokram, who could see better, Leah brought out a belated understanding.

“As a wizard, I didn’t just believe in the reality and phenomena I saw and understood. Trust someone, pray for something. And live with something precious in your arms.”

To my mother, I was that kind of person.

So for me, Lokram is.

“Something precious. That is you, Lokram.”

I thought it was wide open to him, but I took out the last one I had hidden.

Why?

I said it as if it was a light fact.

My heart beats like it’s about to jump out of my mouth, and the area around my red eyes feels hot.

Breathing became rough, as if water would come out if pressed.

I had to pull down my pointed hat to hide my face.

Feeling frustrated at the silence that followed soon after, he asked as if complaining.

“I really wanted to say this when we meet again, but what kind of existence am I to Lokram?”

The sun disappears over the horizon.

As a result, the sunset disappears and complete darkness gradually covers the hill.

and.

“My dear colleague. That’s about it for now.”

His answer covered Leah’s ears.

It was all dark.
