#47

When I opened my eyes, it was dark all over.

I calmed down and looked around knowing that the morning would come soon after the bird's chirping. Soon after dawn, the sky slowly began to turn dark blue.

I could see the princess' red hair on the other side of my hand barely touched it. I woke the princess up by pulling her hem and shaking her. The princess blinked and woke up, and soon she looked around with a clear glance and bent her fingers one by one.

One, two, three, four...

The princess' mouth moved small. Yes, even in that situation, Princess Edwina counted the numbers to see if everyone was there.

One, two, three, four...

Again.

One, two, three, four...

The princess' fingers were trembling.

All ten were bent and stretched again, bent again and again.

No matter how hard our princess is, she must have thought it would be strange to count over and over again.

Someone suddenly rose up next to me.

"Ah…"

My tongue was cut off, Tilbert. He pushed me aside and came all the way to Windsorton with us. For a while, I was very glad to see it. It was because I didn't know if he could have survived.

And I started to feel relieved. The princess kept counting the numbers over and over again because I thought it was because I was confused because of Gilbert.

Come on, I thought I'd let Princess Edwina know this, and I got up through the bushes.The sound of the rustling grass woke up and a girl who was lying down, looking dark, and raised her head.

When I checked his face, I couldn't make a sound and screamed.

She was Remy. Yes, the Grammys who were beheaded and died five years ago under the orders of the mad emperor.

The dark blue has been lifted and the sky has turned gray. The yellowish energy from the east touched Remi's clean face.

The blurry impression as if painted in watercolors, small features, and she was definitely the one I knew.

While he sat down holding his pounding heart, one by one, the fallen men raised their heads one by one.

Two years ago, Dylan, who died of rotting legs because he couldn't cure a small wound, looked up next to me. Albior, who was imprisoned and never returned, and I don't remember when he started working in the court, but he couldn't fix his southern accent, so Lenny, the servant who was talking like Prince Rainer, and Emilia, who was beheaded with Remy...

All those who had already died were there.

Inside the palace, there were 27 people in the circle, including Tilbert, but when we arrived in the forest, we were 42 again. Only then can I see how Princess Edwina feels, shaking her hand repeatedly and counting. I tried to say something with my mouth open, but I was suffocated and couldn't breathe.

So I lost my mind and fell down. It was around the time I arrived in front of the Leete Abbey, lying on my stomach to Tilbert. Vader came running barefoot and welcomed us. The chapel in front of the monastery, which was taken by his hand, was attached with Winderton power, which was made by Pilgrims and decorated the walls every year.

I knew we had come back 5 years.

The bracelet that Prince Rainer gave us is not only a space but also a time that has moved us back.

Did Prince Rainer expect it?

We're going back five years.

A lot of people will arrive in Windsorton alive.

You have to go back five years after you let us go, and you have to endure everything again by yourself.

Did Prince Rainer know everything?

Yes, I'm sure it was.

I'm sure you've made it.

So, will the memory of the last five years remain in the memory of Prince Liner?

All the years of suffering with us, the greetings of the last tears, all of them?

Probably so. The one who turned it is the prince, so it is natural that the memory remains clear to him.

And it was clear that it would remain in the head of the mad emperor who saw us just before we entered the circle and watched what the Prince Rainer was doing.

So what does the Emperor do with all that memory?

Would I admire my second son's skill at turning time and shifting space?

Won't they want to go back to the war that's been ruined?

When I thought about it, my body suddenly shook. While I was so scared that I was at a loss for help, Princess Edwina quickly proceeded as Prince Liner told me to do so.

I brought the paper and wrote a short letter.

"Thank you for letting me go so quickly."

The hand of Princess Edwina, who writes paper, also trembled, but I don't know whether it was because of fear or anger.

I knew when I saw the princess' lips mumbling, 'Buck, damn liner,' looking at her handwriting that was much more distorted than usual. This is what the Prince Rainer did arbitrarily, and the princess didn't expect.

A few days later, there was a message that the letter arrived at Roitlingen.

"Who got it?”

"Lotlingen's lion has received it."

"Did you see the Emperor?"

"I didn't see it in person."

"Have you heard of the Second Prince?”

"I didn't hear it. But if you send a message back to Roitlingen now, you'll be able to check it out.

"It's done."

Princess Edwina didn't ask any more questions. Peter asked me curiously. Is the one who sent you here the prince who helped you? I just nodded. I was afraid that if I said more, I'd become someone. But while nodding once, twice, three times, four times, tears came out.

Thank you, I'm sorry, I'm worried, and yet I'm so glad that everyone's alive, and I'm so sorry to be happy about this...

The tears had a lot of emotions like when Remy died.

After that, life went by like crazy.

My previous life and this life were intertwined, and I messed up my mind and I used to say a lot of nonsense.

Princess Edwina must be living the most complicated life, but she came out calmly and let some of the movers join her. Strangely, the memory of those who died and came back to life seemed to be blank.

Back home, I brought him back to the palace in less than a year. I missed my old friend, Anne Edwina, because when I was at home, I was afraid to be in it because my brother, mother, and father were so old that they could somehow marry me, who had lived as a pawn.

At that time, my body was very weak, but I was too old to act as a maid of honor and not enough physical strength. But my friendly friend accepted this useless body.

The threat of my life disappeared, but it was a time when my daily life was more constrained.

The princess's situation was worse than mine, not better. His Majesty King Alfred tried to hasten the marriage of Charles Wellesley and the princess to protect the unstable throne.

Princess Edwina fled to the monastery of Lete, declaring that she would never marry Charles Wellesley.

I suddenly realized what was wrong with my princess in a sloppy state of mind.

Yeah, Adele married Charles.

And Cecilia was born.

The time was slowly coming for Cecil to be conceived. Only then did Princess Edwina run away from home and find out why she would not marry.

We've all seen it. The lovely Princess Cecilia, whom Adele and Charles gave birth to in the meantime,

It might be another celestial body to pretend that nothing happened.

While fleeing to the monastery of Lete, I heard that the war was completely over. The news that the First Prince Albrecht, the elder brother of Prince Rainer, had killed my father and died together, and that instead of the second, the youngest daughter, had been crowned was quickly caught in monastery sources.

The day I heard the news, I remember asking like this.

"What happened to Prince Rainer?"

Princess Edwina grinned and answered.

"Josephine, can't you feel it?”

It wasn't until a few days later that I realized it. Until the Emperor died, the First Prince died, and the war ended, Prince Rainer would have gone back and worked hard to change something.

A few days later, King Alfred sent people to take the princess back to the monastery. After a few weeks of quiet rebellion, I took turns asking the princess.

"The Prince Rainer has turned the clock again, hasn't he?

Princess Edwina answered silently.

"All this time... So this year after we got back to Windsorton, how many times did you repeat it? Did the princess feel all that?"

"I don't know, Josephine. I really don't know. Maybe it's too far from where she's changing, or I can't really feel what's repeated or really turning back time. It's just a sudden thought in my life. I've had this kind of enemy once, twice, more than that."

"Don't you miss him?"

"I just want him to stop doing this. I hope you leave the palace and live happily somewhere far away.”

"Because you left the palace?”

"Yeah, I know. He's the only one who can survive. That's how I can live."

As soon as I said so, the carriage with the princess reached Arli Palace. Around that time, the door to the place that held our princess tightly like a prison opened.

And King Seon himself came out and spoke.

"I will succeed Charles Wellesley to the throne."

"What change of mind are you?”

"Wellsley said. Give me Adele instead of succeeding without her detente."

"So was it talked about doing that?"

"I'm going to bring Adele to my adopted daughter. Edwinna, I mean, this has nothing to do with what I love you and you're my child. This is the only way we can be happy together."

King Alfred said so with his drooping shoulders. If I had not made the princess Edwina look with a brazen look, or if I hadn't made the princess look sorry, I would have been able to hate my father in peacefully.

His Majesty the King was such an ambiguous evil and weak man.

"Adele, Adele... Did he say yes?”

"Yeah, Edwina. You must forgive him. I don't know how much the aristocracy did to throw me out while you were in the Empire. It was only Charles and Adele who supported me. It was natural that love sprang up between the two. So you, you don't know. You weren't here.”

When I heard that, I was so angry that I wasn't even the person involved.

"Your Grace, too.

"Josephine?"

"Your Majesty, you were not in the Empire. Your Majesty doesn't know anything about how she lived.”

Even if it was a tiger with no teeth, the king was a king. Even if I was the little daughter of the Yelling family, it was not strange for a woman to turn against the king right now.

Your Majesty raised his hand to hit me right in the face.

However, it was natural that the younger daughter's gestures were more misbehaved than the older father. It was Princess Edwina who was slapped by King Alfred.

His Majesty Alfred was so angry that the princess blocked his hand with her body that he didn't know what to do.

"Is it good to sell your children every time to keep them safe?"

"Edwina, I am."

"But you know how embarrassing it is. You're so furious at the sound of your girl."

"You... you really don't know how he feels."

"Yeah, Abby, will you let go of a child you don't know?"

"I guess you didn't even have a royal command to hide in the monastery."

"What do you mean by a royal command?"

"No way. Would it be a parent if I let it go because I's not enough? You should marry a good lord like Adele. Wherever you go after marriage, you are the princess of Windsorton, and you will remain."

"What does that mean?"

Tomorrow`s contest will determine my husband`s match. For the whole month you've been locked up in the monastery of Lette, Windsorton has been buzzing about it. Anyone who waits 100 days in front of your city will give you."

Princess Edwina stared at my father as if she had lost the will to reply.

His Majesty, who didn't even know how to look at his son's expression of preciousness, continued with a pure smile on his face as if it was a really good idea.

"Oh, by the way, I'm going to make it ten tons before my princess' castle. For my beautiful daughter, Anne Edwina, all the knights from the whole kingdom will come running and pay for it. The richest and most tenacious will have you. What do you think? Isn't that a great idea?

One, two, three, four...

I'm looking at the numbers of your readers... Counting over and over again.

Don't get tired of the abominableness of King Alfred, and please press the next episode.

We all know. Who will be in the next episode.

P.S. I forgot to explain the new cover. It's a picture of Hwang Ja-nim, a liner sent to me on Twitter. I never said that a young man with moonlight hair had long hair, but how did you draw the liner like a liner?
