Kuro no Senki (LN)

In early February 1934, the Imperial Capital Alfilk - it was the first time I felt a fever.

It is not a heat like the sun or fire.

A wet, yet uncomfortable fever.

Next, it hurts. My joints hurt.

Last breath. It's hard to breathe.

Have you suffered from the flu?

Someone's hands touch my forehead.

It's a cold hand, but the discomfort is relieved.

That's not all.

The pain subsided and my breathing became easier.

Kurono slowly opened his eyes as his hands fell apart.

Then the canopy covered his head.

Looks like he's been put to bed.

When I looked next door...

Boy, are you awake?

Myra was there.

Look on the other side.

There it is.

"Oh, are you awake?"

There was a priest.

is lowering his hips on the bed and looking down at Chrono.

"When it's time to heal your wounds with magic..."

"I knew you'd go to hell."

"If you suddenly say that, you'll get hurt!"

Krono interrupted his words and the priest roughed up his voice.

"I'm kidding. I'm kidding."

Really?

The priest turned a strange gaze.

……

"Do you want to say something?"

Krono silenced, and the priest shouted.

By the way, where are we?

"Gh, I'm not saying that.I want you to pay more respect to me, say "Lord," say "Ignith," say "my men."

The priest groaned and complained of bumps.

"If you want me to show you respect, please do it properly."

"No, that's not how respect works, is it?Isn't that a tool for getting along? "

"Reverend, respect is diminished."

"I told you with my face."

When Krono asked back, the priest said moaning.

I'm going to ask you again, where are we?

"In the bedroom of Ramal V in Alfirk Castle."

"... I see."

Chrono nodded slightly in between.

Apparently, the detachment was able to take down Alfilk Castle.

Not to mention...

"May I use the former emperor's bedroom?"

"Whatever, I don't care."

Krono murmured, and the priest said in a light tone.

Maybe Tilia gave her permission to use the bedroom.

Still, I feel hesitant.

Oh, and the priest speaks up.

Is something wrong?

Speaking of which, Ramal V died in this room.

"Why do you say that!?"

"She was thrown away trying to get the girl to work.Fufu, this is the real boyfriend. "

"Where!?"

Chrono threw in and coughed slightly.

"Well, calm down."

"Well, who's to blame....."

'Cause you're gonna tease me.

The priest sharpened his lips in a relentless manner.

Does that mean a return of interest?

Maybe Ramal V died here.

"This Ramal V thing isn't serious.I heard that, so I'm sure. "

"... is that so?"

Chrono murmured for a moment.

I don't ask anyone.

I am troubled if the person tells me that it will be decided.

I don't want to hear any suspicions, so I look at Myra again.

"Ah, boy!"

Myra shouted as if she was impressed - it smelled like a lie to me.

"Myra didn't want to wake up like this."

"How long have you been unconscious?"

"It's been three days."

"That much....."

Unexpectedly murmuring, but I also feel that way.

Lure Leonhart out of the Imperial Capital and hold him off until another squad crushes Alfort.

To that end, the Imperial Army itself was used as a shield, and an operation was set up on the premise that sacrifices would be made.

To be honest, I didn't think I'd survive.

No, I was ready to use my life to stop Leonhart.

Without that readiness, we cannot make such a plan.

Compared to dying, you can say that the current condition is a minor injury.

Myra, what's the situation?

"That's...."

Myra held her mouth shut.

An unusual attitude.

Is something wrong?

Myra?

"Would it be better if I heard that from your wife?"

Ma'am?

I'm talking about Princess Tilia.

When Chrono asked, Myra answered the sigh.

"... ma'am?"

"Is there a problem?"

"Nothing."

Boy, Myra and I corrected the residence.

Stretch your spine while lying on the bed.

"I understand how realistic marriage is and how timid it is."

"It's not like that."

Really?

"Don't worry, I'll take responsibility as a man."

Myra stepped forward and said, and Chrono answered honestly.

A buzzing sound sounds.

The priest blew it out.

My mouth was twitching and shaking.

"Anything you want to say?"

"I'm going to take responsibility as a man, no matter what they say."

"People were trying to accept marriage positively....."

"It's like there's an option not to take responsibility."

"Gh......"

Krono moaned at the priest's astonishment.

As she says, there is no alternative to taking responsibility.

If you do that, you will die next time.

No, Tilia's gonna kill me.

The baby coughs and Myra coughs.

"Not to mention my heart, I was relieved that Boy was going to take responsibility."

"Myra, I really want to take responsibility."

Are you kidding me?

"I mean it."

Myra laughed with her nose and Chrono replied with a little frustration.

"Who would believe such a myth?"

"It's a mystery."

Chrono moaned.

I'm trying to take responsibility.

And yet you're being treated like a mystery.

"Why don't you believe me?"

"You prefer the words responsibility and bullying, but you are a cowardly creature."

"Is that prejudice?"

Fufu, Myra laughed.

It's just a look I don't understand.

"That was more than 30 years ago.I belonged to Lord Claude's mercenary regiment. "

"I know that, but...."

What do you want to say?

"It is now after the late His Majesty Ramal V was brought to victory.I saw a lot of people choking and crying when they took responsibility and bullying. "

"You're not just running away. You're fine."

Yeah, yeah, the priest nodded.

She is convinced, but she shouldn't have run away so long as she chokes and crys.

No, of course, I'm going to take responsibility.

"I broke my bones to capture the escaped Regiment member and persuade him to take responsibility...."

"That's not good at all!"

Myra distracted herself and Chrono raised her voice.

"As you say, promises are heavy."

"I understand that, but...."

"Thank you for your understanding.Based on the above experience, I am convinced that you are a creature that runs away in fear of getting married. "

"... is that so?"

I think it's a special case, but I'll keep my mouth shut because it looks like a snake.

"But I wonder if that makes me happy ~"

"I think I'm pretty happy because I have grandchildren."

Shit, and Myra whispered her tongue.

"Why are you whispering?"

"At that time, if you don't keep your promise..."

"No, that's, uh, yeah, well, maybe it is."

Myra groaned, and the priest struck a gavel.

My teeth are strangely cut.

I know how you feel.

Even if we hadn't captured the fleeing crew, we wouldn't have made friends.

Of course not.

Become a snake.

"Kid, please don't run away."

I said, "I'm not running."

"If you try to escape, we will chase you to the end of the earth."

"That's why I'm not running away."

"... I believe you."

When she got tired of giving it back, Myra put it aside for a while.

I don't believe in this kind of eyes.

Naturally, I used the word 'I believe' to control it.

"If you go like this, you'll become Emperor, so please."

I knew it would come.

"Naturally."

Myra said perfectly.

I want you to put clothes on your teeth, if possible.

"When the development was on track, I bet Milord was right, but I didn't think there was much left to do.I can't believe I could eat into the center of the Empire in the second generation...Uhahaha! That's why laughter doesn't stop! "

"─!"

Suddenly, Myra laughed and the priest trembled.

Hundreds of years of life doesn't seem to mean you're too young.

I suddenly started laughing, so naturally, it seemed natural.

When she finished laughing, Myra stood up without a sound.

"What's wrong?"

I'm going to get my wife.

I thought you were busy.

"Boy, your wife was very worried.We also need you to communicate the current situation and discuss what lies ahead.To put it further, there are procedures for everything. "

"... I see."

Myra told him to include it, and Chrono nodded.

Is it bad for Tilia to decide things on her own?

It's quite difficult.

Well then, I'll tell my wife that the boy has woken up.

Nice to meet you.

"Leave it to me."

Myra said thank you and left the bedroom.

Chrono exhaled and coughed slightly.

I thought it would settle soon, but it's hard to.

"Let's rub your back."

"Please."

When I woke up, the priest rubbed my back.

"Don't mess with your body for a long time."

"Do you understand that?"

"If a man who's been unconscious for three days coughs up, everybody thinks so."

Well, yeah.

Chrono rubbed his left arm.

Remember the battle against Leonhart.

I was about to have my left arm amputated.

If Rio hadn't helped me, he would have lost his left arm.

"Don't worry, I think you'll live longer."

Really?

"Because I said I'd be fooled by the world of hateful children."

"I wasn't expecting that...."

Krono exhaled in a pungent tone.

"Fufufu, if you want to live longer, I'll let you live longer."

You're not going to die.

That's what I said.

Fufu, the priest snorted.

It's worse than a monkey's hand not to die in the hope of longevity.

She's a landmine girl.

Not so serious - at least you're not content to fool us.

What do you say?

I'll stop it.

"Well, whenever you're ready to live forever with me, don't tell me."

"Yes, I will."

"Don't expect me to wait."

Kuku, the priest smiled.

Silence suddenly falls.

Because you just regained consciousness.

My body is lazy.

I'm going to sleep like this.

When I started pounding, a bang sounded.

My drowsiness blows in an instant.

I was surprised to see how it sounded.

Then there was Tilia.

Wearing a black based dress, she stops moving with the door open.

Tilia, it's been a while.

"Oh, my God, you're such a..."

Kurono-sama!

Tilia's words were blocked and Leila jumped into the bedroom.

Rush over and stand by the bed.

"Great. I wonder if I won't wake up like this...."

"I'm sorry I worried you. But it's okay now."

Chrono smiled to reassure Leila.

"Sit down."

Yes, Leila lowered her hips to the bed.

When I stroked my ears, I narrowed my eyes as if they were comfortable.

I felt my gaze.

Looking at the door, Tilia looked scared.

Cro...

"I heard you! You're awake!"

Tilia's words are blocked again.

Now she's the general.

The maid moved by the bed and wept.

"Damn, I'm just worried.I really thought I was gonna die. "

"Sorry."

Krono said an apology.

I'm just apologizing.

Cro...

Kurono-sama! I think I'm awake!

Tilia's words were blocked again.

Ali Dead and Deneb rushed to bed and dived into bed.

"Wow, what a touch!"

"It's like the Emperor's bedroom!"

Ali Dead and Deneb cheated on the futon.

"... Ali Dead, Deneb"

"Ha-ha, it looks like we're going down soon"

Leila lowered her voice and Ali Dead and Deneb got out of bed.

Gohon and Tilia cough.

Take a step forward.

Kurono-sama!

Worry about me, Citita!

For the fourth time, Snow and Sue rushed into the bedroom.

Gunnu, Tilia moans.

"We were all worried."

Chrono smiled and gazed.

After the battle.

I'm worried about members who aren't here.

Especially Lieutenant, Faye, and Theon.

The three stopped Leon Hart.

It is unlikely that he survived.

But I can't keep quiet forever.

The next moment I never opened my mouth.

General!

"Master Krono! Have you regained consciousness!?"

Lieutenant and Faye rushed into the bedroom.

They were both safe.

"Hei, I was prepared to die when I was pierced by a sword, but Theon saved me." (Bu, Bu, Bu, Bu)

And then there's Manchausen and the others.If Lord Manchausen and the others hadn't caught Lord Leonhart's attention, they would have been tormented. "

As Chrono stroked his chest down, the lieutenant and Faye walked in explaining.

"... where's Theon?"

Theon...... (Bumo......)

I'm not alive.

Immediately after the lieutenant's words were clouded, a voice was heard from the hallway.

Tiga came into the bedroom carrying Theon.

A bandage is wrapped around my right knee.

Looks more like a very thick supporter than a bandage.

I'm glad you're alive.

Yes, I agree with you.

"By the way, what about the injury?"

"I've used too much magic, and it's been like this for a while."

Theon raised his eyebrows in trouble.

I feel like I should ask the priest...

Well, there must be a lot.

"Um, what about everyone else?"

When Chrono asked, the sound of panting resounded.

It's a whistling sound.

Looking at the door, Myra stood.

I wonder when they came.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry for the joy, but the boy has just regained consciousness.Leave the rest to your wife, and we'll get out. "

Eh, that's a tyranny.

Ali Dead and Deneb said dissatisfied, and Myra smiled.

But my eyes aren't laughing.

Raise your fist to chest level.

"Are you both complaining?"

"No, I don't think so.But I can't complain anymore. "

"Yes, yes, I'll leave it to the young, and the old will go out."

Ali Dead and Deneb said while kneading their hands.

Nice work following you.

I think it was better that way from the beginning.

"Come on, everybody out! It's like going out!"

"Looks like we don't want to be punished!"

Ali Dead and Deneb raised their voices and Leila and the others started moving.

"Father, outside."

Me, too.

Myra called and the priest headed down the hallway with a tenderness.

Everyone leaves the bedroom.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

Myra closed the door.
