Running Away From The Hero!

I had a dream.

All the world turned black, and there were dead people waiting for me to die.

It was the same room as always, but a completely different world.

And someone came into the world and saved me.

A handsome man would have truly become Prince Charming in a fairy tale... The problem is that the one who saved Astra.

It's a dog.

Astra was the last face I thought of when it was time to die.

Don't you know that face? If you ask, you can say no.

Honestly, except for Leah and Ast, no one was that close.

Still... Even so.

“Astra, the last person I saw was so bad.... ”

My whole body is damp.

Sweaty pajamas are unpleasant. Go wash up and change your clothes...

“Huh?"

Stand up and check the perimeter.

The familiar room, my room.

These are the pajamas I usually wore yesterday.

“That……. ”

Wasn't it a dream?

It can't be this realistic after death.

That means everything I thought was a dream was true.

“Is Ast dead? ”

Thinking about the last appearance, I looked around, and there were no bodies.

“Did you live? ”

Yesterday's work didn't come to my mind.

What I saw in my delusional mind was the image of confronting the fragments of evil... and swallowing them up.

“I don't know.”

I want to wash quickly and change into these wet clothes.

I called the maid outside to make sure the bath was ready and to get something to wear.

The maids who know nothing are acting as usual. Then I'll have to do what I always do.

After washing like that and changing into new clothes, I moved as usual.

“Announce!”

I couldn't help but sigh as I saw the wet clothes again.

“Leah, stop. ”

“But... but don't! ”

Leah is as tall as a knight.

I'm taller than I am even on my knees, and Leah is crying on my chest.

I couldn't see it.

“Leah, your clothes are all wet. ”

“Still!”

Hehe!

Sniffing nose at the royal clothes.

Ah... I think I buried it a little.

“Leah.”

You're still getting snot on the royal clothes.

You can understand the tears, but this was too much.

“Pass the word!”

“Ahh... ”

But Leah didn't stop.

I shed tears as if trying to get all my clothes wet.

When I changed back like that, I looked at Leah to some extent.

“Tell him.”

“Wait, wait there. ”

As soon as I got up, I changed my clothes twice.

I stopped Leah from coming back with tears again and asked her to prepare to meet the Emperor… Father.

“Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Ast comes in as Leah nods.

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

The moment my gaze struck, Ast turned his head and avoided my gaze.

“ ……. ”

Seeing that I have nothing to say, only silence wandered around.

Awkward.

Unlike other people, it was an asthma that really made me feel a lot of things, but it was mostly anger and embarrassment.

It was difficult to say anything because I had never felt awkward before.

“Your Majesty, we are ready. ”

The awkward atmosphere that neither of them said continued until Leah arrived.

“I have a place to go for a while, so just wait. ”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

That was all I said after my first greeting.

“What happened? ”

“Yeah, a little bit. ”

I decided to keep it a secret from Leah because it wasn't a little, but I didn't know exactly.

Leah knows about this, but there's only one person who knows more precisely.

“Huh? Hmmm? ”

But not one of them looks so good.

“What do I do? ”

“Hmm……. ”

The emperor closed his eyes and began to think.

If you exclude me, you are the genius who inherited the blood of the greatest dragon in the royal family.

So I might be able to figure something out based on what I've seen and heard.

“If I live... I think I should live. ”

It was the answer to the question of being a woman, not a royal.

“Your Majesty, what would you like to do? ”

“Hmmm... ”

This time, I began to think even more deeply than before.

That's why it's so important.

It was important enough to say that it was the beginning of the Empire.

The reason empires exist is because they are sacrifices for the fragments of evil that lie dormant in the blood of dragons.

“I don't know. Now I just have to keep an eye on things. It's important.”

He shook his head and said that.

“Ast... I should see if there are any evil fragments left in his body. ”

“I understand.”

That said, we talked some more and the conversation with the king ended.

“What happened? ”

“It is His Majesty's will to see it as it is. ”

You don't seem to understand the situation. Well, as a party, I don't understand.

“Then, Your Majesty, what are you going to do? ”

“Coming?"

“Yes.”

If it were the way it was, it would have been yesterday.

Since that life has become a sudden thing, there's something to do....

“Shall we? ”

I thought about it for a moment, and I remembered one job.

Everyone does it nowadays, but I couldn't do it.

What I couldn't do because I had a fragment of evil in my body and I didn't know when death would come!

“What do you mean? ”

“Take Leah's revenge and go outside the imperial court. ”

“No way…. ”

Looking at Leah with her eyes wide open, I nodded.

“Shall we join the war? ”

# 46 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

“I'm not grumbling! ”

As soon as I returned, I cried out against him, watching the announcement that I was going to join the war.

“What happened suddenly? Did you lose any power? ”

A sudden announcement that he has met the Emperor is calling for participation in the war.

“No, I just wanted to go. ”

What the fuck is the king talking about?

What was the only advantage of serving you?

It was the only advantage that you could be safe behind the scenes in situations where the organization and the Imperial Court were at war!

“Perhaps you should reconsider, Your Majesty. War is best to stay as far away from it as possible. ”

“We must avenge Leah. ”

That meant they were going to attack the Kingdom of Mercia.

A nation with enormous military power to rival the Empire.

A country that is geographically closer to the Karean Empire but is working with the Fernez Empire, killing the enemy of the empire, Lord Leah's lover.

Well, it was a good reason to join the Emperor's temperament, but I've been idle....

“Why are you suddenly like this? ”

The moment I said it, the atmosphere became cheaper.

What's with all the packing?

“Don't you know?”

The king, the center of the fighting atmosphere, only said that and stared at me.

What is it?

“I don't know.”

Could it be because of what happened yesterday....

However, unlike his usual personality, he didn't seem to remember it well because he didn't say it himself.

Well, he didn't look too good yesterday.

As soon as the king fell, he ran to his room.

We don't know exactly what happened to the black thing.

Where did he run off to, or did he disappear?

I didn't know it, but it wasn't my ability to eliminate it.

Boom is just boom.

How do I get rid of that black thing that literally sucked out of nothing?

So if anyone has removed that black thing, it's you.

While I closed my eyes, I tried to remove the black thing, and the message with all its power fainted.

I had to think so.

“Really?"

“That's right.”

I felt that I was the only one to lose more attention.

That's why I looked straight at him without avoiding His Majesty's gaze.

“Really? Really? ”

“Yes.”

I don't know what the sword is, but I can see it has to do with something very complicated.

So you have to say you don't know.

If they are involved for no reason, their annoying imperial life may become even more annoying.

“Yes...? ”

The sight of me staring at my lips tightly was pretty scary, but I ignored it.

“That's right.”

Seeing him spinning around like that, it's obvious what happened yesterday was uncertain.

So the answer is to say I don't know.

“Well, then……. ”

It was the right answer.

I sighed of relief as I looked at Lord Leah.

“What does Leah think? ”

“If it's war.... ”

I give Lord Leah the eagerness to think for a moment. Please don't go!

“You don't have to avenge yourself. ”

Excellent, Lord Leah!

“Yes, vengeance begets vengeance. ”

Love and Piece.

You must first keep the peace with your loving heart.

This continent is a battlefield, but there's no reason for us to go!

“But……. ”

“Sir Leah? ”

I stare at Sir Leah, who suddenly gives me an uneasy glance.

Why is it said to do so here, Lord Leah?

“If you want…. ”

Lord Leah, on her knees, grabs your hand.

“My sword will always be used for you. ”

“I heard.”

Bleeding.

He smiled and looked at me.

I never thought Lord Leah would put an ax in the back of my foot!

“Lord Leah, I don't think it's a good idea for you to go to war for your own safety. ”

We can't give up yet. If we can convince Lord Leah, we can change your mind!

“It's all right. I'll take care of it. ”

But, Leah, an unsurprisingly knife-like answer returns.

Ah... That's for real.

My eyes were filled with conviction that I could say I was an example of a knight.

“Is that so?”

I sighed as I looked at Sir Leah nodding.

Well, I can't help it.

“Then I sincerely... ”

If the opponent is serious, I have to be sincere.

In sincere mode, I put my hand in my arms and took it out.

“Ast……? ”

I knelt on my knees just like before and looked at it with trembling eyes that conveyed me.

resignation form

“I'll get rid of it, Your Grace. ”

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

It was cold again, but I didn't give up.

“I'll get rid of it!”

If you don't get rid of it here, you'll leave the battlefield.

I've been out there long enough at the end of the organization, and I don't want to go out there anymore!

“Ast……. ”

He looked at me with cold eyes and opened his mouth.

“Do you want to get off the front line? ”

I put my resignation back in my arms when I said it quietly.

“I am your personal butler. It must be your duty to follow you. ”

I could feel the cold stares, but I couldn't help it. But the Emperor's side is safer than the front!

“Leave it... ”

The first time I met you on the battlefield after thinking that.

“I'm sorry, Your Majesty……. ”

It was a group of Stragglers.
