Self-loathing.

"... the vessel?

Ein, who normally attended school and continued his life as usual. What a short time it took for two weeks to finally be the day of the life of my predecessors. After finishing the discipline of things to offer, Ein and just two of us take to the royal cemetery.

Although the suppliers were escorted to the front of the cemetery, only Ain and Silvard stepped in as decided.

—— What is the King's vessel?

That's one question Ain thought about the other day. Naturally, Ain has a few thoughts too. But still, I wanted you to tell me what Silvado thought.

"Ain't you old enough to think about that, too?"

"No, well. Uh... that, yes..."

I broke my cheek and gently stroked Ain's head with a pomp. I do fine as Prince Wang, but the attitude of putting it into words and trying to learn these things is a delightful story for Silvado as well.

"But I need time to speak that word. Let's start with what needs to be accomplished… and then let's talk slowly. Okay?"

"Of course. Then before the grave of His Majesty the predecessor..."

The weather is just a little rough today with foggy fine rain. The time was before noon when Ain woke up. It was dusty in the early morning, so although the weather was turning better, the sky still didn't seem to calm down.

The gravestone at the cemetery is also wet by the rain, giving Ain and the others a different look than last time.

"But you grew up big. It's not uncomfortable to be equipped with such a long sword."

White and silver-toned outfit with a royal Ishtarika crest on the chest. White gloves made of smooth cloth on hand and a new partner made by Shearling on the hip are carried.

Ain's body, taller than his average height, has what an uncomfortable physique with a long sword on his hips.

Of course, Silverado is also dressed in formal attire, and in the case of Silverado, he wears a feather made of white and silver, plus gold thread. And he had a sword on his lower back, just like Ain.

"Thanks to you, we've grown well."

"That's more than anything. … Then come with me, Ain, and greet your predecessors in the same manner after the rest."

"Yes, I'll see you in the back"

Two people on the grave. First, Silvado stands in front and shows Ain a sample.

First give a thank you, then put the next offering you bring before the grave. There's room for that, so I'll just carefully put it there.

There is nothing like a celebration, but a solemn series of flows.

……

Silvered to continue that practice without telling us anything. Ain keeps observing the trick behind him and learning not to be disrespectful when it's his turn. I had checked the method beforehand, but it would still be a little different if it were the real thing.

After a brief period of less than a few minutes, but finishing certain things to do, Silvard finally lifted his sword and pressed it against his chest.

"... that's it. You were watching closely, weren't you?

"Yes, I've learned"

"Then greet your predecessors similarly.... though, there's only so much left for Ain to do in the future. Ha, ha, ha!

"It's not a mistake, but such carelessness..."

Praying in her heart that she would live longer, Ain't got her place right and head to the grave.

"Phew..."

Though he is dead, his opponent is his predecessor King Ishtarika... and the father of Silvard.

Even though it is the modus operandi in front of the grave, that Ain is also attacked by just a little tension. Carefully reflect on Silvard's appearance one by one, and proceed with great care to ensure that no mistakes are made.

"... um"

Silvado's voice, which is heard from time to time, tells Ain't no problem with that. I'm sure this will also be my grandfather's concern, Ein thanks him for thinking so.

With Silvard's small but influential care, Ain was able to calm down and move on with that set of practices.

And it has finally come to the final phase, and there is one last thing to do.

"(Take the sword...)"

Take the sword and push it in front of your chest. And at the end of the day, it's all over. So it's all over and I'll talk to Silver... Ain't meant to be.

"... Huh!?

The sword Ain't got in his hand... the Shearling Armor sword is starting to glow. Even if the light starts, it is wrapped in a sheath, so the extent to which the light leaks from the root area is noticed. But the light was also firmly confirmed by Silverado, who stood behind him.

I hear a breathtaking voice from Silvado standing behind me, but Ein managed to stay calm.

--… so this is what Shearton said he was capable of? Because Ein was so convinced.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa. I missed explaining…"

Ain't done the last thing I'm supposed to do to thank you. I look back quietly and apologize to Silvado first.

"What was the light earlier...?

"When it's a powerful undead material, it means you can do these swords. I should have explained it first, I'm sorry"

I guess Silvard had knowledge of those swords. After a little thought came to mind, I looked at Ain and said, 'Is that what you mean?'

"I've heard of such weapons. I don't keep those things in the castle, but I knew if that was the case.... but I'll explain it first. Okay?"

"... I understand. I will make sure that this does not happen again."

Apparently, he ignores me, and Ain was relieved of that. Even as Silvado, I guess I didn't think I needed to bother to punish him.

"Are you sure you're gonna react to the bones?

"Exactly. It seems like a very useless ability..."

"Hmm... sounds like a few things to think about, but it doesn't look like much to Ain"

Exactly. It would be difficult if Prince Wang were asked if he could make use of his abilities even if he had such a weapon.

"But I've found out one thing. The remains of my father are firmly barbed here, that would be a good thing"

I don't think tomb vandalism will come all the way here because of a tightly guarded land. But then I found out my father was asleep, and Silverado was soaked in sentiment for a little while.

"Ain't it cold?

"No, especially. It's hotter when you're dressed."

It is this outfit that is quite cold resistant to wear a few thick pieces of fabric. No matter how much foggy it rains, it still doesn't get cold just standing like this.

"You should be. It's not much to talk about in public, so it would be preferable to talk about it here"

"Uh... is that what I asked you?

"Hmm. I've finished what I need to do, so why don't we answer Ein's question?"

A strong breeze blew for a moment, and droplets hit the two cheeks. Ain't breathing a sigh of relief when his head is cooled down a little bit.

"The King's vessel. Such stories are not such as to make others listen. But Ein is the king prince... the king of the future. So let me give you the rest of my thoughts."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"I don't mind. I don't mind. Because Ain't the only one who can talk about these things... And Ain, what we're about to talk about is just an idea. I don't think your lord will ever come to the exact same idea, okay?

"Yes...... I know"

Did the kings of history have similar ideas? With that in mind, the answer would undoubtedly be 'no'. We have all had different philosophies and ruled in accordance with those times. Even if it's a different idea, that's not the mistake.

"The rest of the king's vessel, I think, is" to preside over the life and death of all the people "… I consider it to be able to do so"

"The life and death of all the people…?

"Mm-hmm. That means a lot... Kingsguard knights, for example. The lives they can take by waving their swords and the lives of those who can take them by the rest of their words. This is overwhelmingly more of the latter, you know what that means?

"... you will need the king's name to plead not guilty. For example, if there is a war, many will go to battle in the words of your grandfather."

Silvard stares into Ain's eyes, who speaks so.

"Exactly. And if there is a mistake in the rest of the words, the man will only die.... that raw won't make sense"

"Yes, I thought you were right."

"And one more thing. Ignorance is a sin, but not guilty of not being a wise man. The king is never a minister, not a general, and if he is not a merchant, he is not a blacksmith."

A silvered figure who speaks so with a grand face. Ein keeps listening to the King's thoughts when he first hears them.

"... all you have to do is accomplish what the king is meant to do. The king is nothing more, nothing less, just a king."

Some parts were difficult to understand in abstract terms. But there are parts of the senses that are somewhat understandable. It was a strange feeling, but a word that profoundly pierced my consciousness as a royalty.

"I need to worry about something. Don't forget to solve that problem, Ein."

"... and I will remember the liver. And don't forget your grandfather's words now... I'll remember them well."

"Ha ha! Even my grandfather would be delighted to hear you say that. Come on Ain... why don't we go back inside before we catch a cold"

During this conversation, Ain kept thinking about wrapping up his own thoughts. But it didn't come true, and my thoughts just stumbled in my head.

On the other hand, Ein reiterated that it was still a difficult thing to do, as it seemed nice to ask Silvard what he thought. Really hard for a king, I realized that strongly.

Ain't taken a light bath because it got wet. I don't have any more plans today, so I can go back to my room and take a break. But I remember my conversation with Silvard, and I've been spinning pens since about my desk.

"What do I want to do..."

I've been thinking about the future a lot lately.... I started thinking a lot about Krone. I will surely be king in the future. Unless something happens, it's decided, and that's the future that will almost certainly happen.

Thinking about that future often makes me think back about what happened at Roundheart.

I was born as my oldest son, and at first I got adorable there. My father, Logus, had also taught me the sword and praised me well for my muscular self.

But there are a few triggers and that's over. My brother Grint was wrapped in more love than he was, and he ended up with the next Lord's seat.

As a result. I also recall that my mother's treatment of Olivia was worse and just filled with feelings of sorry.

I wanted to somehow improve the situation, I punched into the workout with some of those thoughts, and from that time on, I was strong enough that there was no one lined up in the same age.

After that, it goes to who I am now. For some reason, I traveled to Ishtarika on the night of the unveiling party at the Augusto residence. It's been shocking, but I'm glad it happened all the time.

"Nah or it catches me...... yeah......"

Why does Round Heart come out when I'm thinking about the future?

There is no such thing as affection, especially if you shouldn't have cared. Why? That was caught.

"Being king and roundheart has nothing to do with anything..."

I hate round hearts that make me have these troubles, but I have no place to bump that hateful thought. I've just been thinking lately about why I'm so worried about Round Heart.

... with Krone and the future. What's more, Round Heart... why is this connected? At first glance, nothing seems relevant.

Momentum your own cold tea and cool your throat and stomach.

"Uh I don't know what that means...... duh!

I couldn't stand still, though I didn't get any better from twitching.

Only the sound of rain hitting the windowsill sounds quietly all over the room.

"I'm very bad at stomping..."

Lack of decisiveness? Or is it worrying? I am conscious of my sweet personality, but I do not feel that I am lacking in decisiveness due to issues like this one. Shh! I want to make a decision about things with momentum, like a phonetic sound.

Don't think about anything else. Even if I think about the future with that in mind, it still makes me think about what happened at Heim again.

I knew it, but it was something I've been repeating over and over here lately.

"Oh, I'm out of tea"

I tried to relax with another drink, but that ends without me being able to.

"Forget it. Let's go outside for a minute."

This feeling I can't put into words. At last Ain can't stand it and thinks about going out and distracting him.

—— but because of the momentum gained, Ain's used cup fell to the floor and cracked.

"Uh... I did it..."

I tried to reduce my mood even further and call for help to clean it, but somehow became embarrassed to call it, so I started cleaning myself.

"Ouch... haha... too much stomping and kicking to laugh"

I make it when it doesn't work. It doesn't work. If I keep bothering you so far, then Ain't got no idea what to do with this feeling either.

Collect the fragments with the scratched fingers covered and arrange them on a cloth you don't need.

"It hurts no more..."

Time to taste the pain alone like this. This is the last time I've felt anything like it. Then I remember the old days again… I remember my childhood.

While Logus was taking care of Grint, he had many small injuries during his workouts.... This situation is similar to that.

"It sucks...... this situation is not good"

No matter how you fall, you feel down, while you start to get attacked by feelings that you don't want to do anything. Just lie back and read the book in silence, enjoy a delicious meal at the castle and relax in a large bath. At the end of the day I want to sleep in my own big bed.

"Ha - I can't believe Cup even betrayed me..."

The reason I dropped the cup was in Ain, but I rarely blamed it on the stuff. If you don't, you can't do it, and this is how you distract yourself from declining.... but Ain't noticed the word betrayal.

"Betrayal......? Betrayal."

Put it into words a few times and repeat it. When I overheard the word betrayal, I didn't feel like I was going to get close to something.

He stops bleeding with his injured fingers and Ain starts thinking on the floor.

... and after a few minutes, I could finally notice new facts.

"Oh well. I see how this story is connected."

It can also be described as exactly the merit of the injury. Because of the injuries, the seeds of recent troubles here… I know why.

"I'm afraid that they'll love me, and expect me to. Remember to be betrayed... and you're running away."

I was expected when I was born. But as a result, he was betrayed.

"What the hell is that? I told you I didn't care, but I cared enough.... so you were hooked about the Round Heart."

When he becomes king Ishtarika, the expectations of the people are set aside and betrayed.... or what if something similar happened?

Or betrayed again by those who love themselves.... Can I endure the next? I totally got a point.

"I mean haha...... I'm just saying I was a coward."

Ain't covered in a lot of emptiness, get up and head to the couch. After that I spent until the sun changed on it, and by that time I was finally able to get up again.

In the meantime I was just sitting quietly on the couch, and my heart kept filled with uncomfortable emptiness.
