Running Away From The Hero!

I couldn't bear it.

“Yes?”

Seeing his brother's face like he lost the whole world....

“Huff... ”

I tried my best to endure it.

“You're lying, aren't you, sis? ”

Watching my eyes shaking, my lips trembling, and my face turning white, I couldn't bear it.

“Hahaha! Hahaha! ”

Fireworks. That was huge too.

Even clowns on the continent were not this funny, but I recently learned a lot about his new talents.

“Ah... Ast... I'm in trouble..." It hurts... My heart aches... ”

My chest ached because of how much I laughed.

“Ah... st? ”

I couldn't hear the butler's reply, so I raised my head.

And there it was.

“Is he dead?”

“… not dead. ”

There was an asthma that was dripping with blood on her lips with her dying face.

“What's the matter? ”

When I wiped the tears off the edge of my eyes and looked at Ast, I clenched my lips and muttered in a small voice.

“If you smile, you'll get blasphemy. ”

“Oh, right. ”

I was mistaken for my usual behavior, but basically, Ast was a well-mannered person.

Well, you must have been trained thoroughly enough to enter the Imperial Court as a commoner.

Even if I was chosen to be an Imperial servant through exams and interviews, that's not all.

It was believed that the imperial butler or maid, who had retired outside the imperial court for at least a few months, trained thoroughly.

... Well, Ast doesn't show up in front of me.

“Are you sure? Is that it? Talk to me! ”

Now, I keep smiling as I see my brother holding on to Ast with tears.

Although it is said that Emperor Karan is mentally fast growing, he is only 10 years old.

As quickly as he grew mentally, he would be called a genius around him, and he would be overconfident.

In a confident state, one defeat was more shocking than I expected.

It's also a talent to rise again when you fall from that shock.

But this time it was different.

Didn't Ast tell you?

Now he was as good as dead.

Cause of death is disgrace.

It meant that he was too ashamed to die.

“Th-that can't be...! No way!”

“I, Your Majesty! ”

The butler who was taking care of her quickly caught up with her on her way down.

His brother leaning against the butler's body was pale like a corpse.

“Poor thing.”

I can't even smile anymore.

One of the teachers who taught me as a child said it was also a gift to rise again when I fell down.

No matter how brilliant a genius may be, he makes mistakes.

Said there were surprisingly many geniuses sitting around who couldn't get up again.

I knew what he was going to say. It meant, "Do not be afraid to fall."

It's an experience to fall and stand up again.

But his case was different.

The opponent is Duke Leisha.

Everything was explained by it.

“ ……. ”

I couldn't even comfort him.

Imagine if I was defeated by Duke Raisha. What good is comfort?

Nothing. I didn't think about it.

I didn't think anything could comfort me in my defeat by Duke Lysha.

I don't think I've ever had a similar experience.

Even though Leah was being controlled by Astor, she lost three consecutive strategic chess battles to the same skill.

How ashamed were you then?

I tried to hide my emotions as best I could, and before I went to bed, I put my face on the pillow and chewed up defeat.

It was strategic chess.

Even if I lost, there was no damage.

Even in that situation, I was so ashamed and ashamed.

His brother was defeated by Duke Lysha, not by anyone telling him what to do.

To Duke Laisha, who is rated much lower than Leah!

And that's 10,000 casualties in real life!

I would have seriously hanged myself and killed myself.

No, maybe he didn't because he didn't know it all along.

From what I've heard, even my troops were known to be masters of defeated legions.

Maybe he was still alive because of a misunderstanding that was full of misunderstandings.

“At this rate……. ”

You can do what Ast says you're ashamed of.

“Ast, what can we do? ”

“Hmm……. Like, right now? ”

“Yes.”

I would have just left my loser brother alone. Seeing that look, I was really mistaken and couldn't make the right decision.

We can't console him, but we'll make sure he doesn't die.

“… why are you asking me such a difficult thing? ”

I sighed as I saw an art that didn't hide the annoying look on my face.

“As an accomplice to such madness? ”

“Huh……. ”

My gaze and Ast's are on the same spot at the same time.

“You still haven't woken up. ”

“It's not something you can just clean up. ”

There, I could see my brother leaning against the steward's side, still unconscious.

“Didn't your sister tell you? Who would do something so crazy? ”

It was the first thing my brother said while he was pondering for a long time, hearing both our plans and the reality about the Duke of Lycia.

“And that's what we do. You did not answer ’. ”

“We actually did it. ”

“At that time, you should have said it was a ploy to think carefully and consider different situations to make the best of things. ”

“Isn't that crazy? ”

“There's a lot to be gained if something that seems crazy is successful. ”

“My brother became a victim in the process of that success. ”

“A terrible sacrifice. ”

“Can you not talk about my brother like he's still alive? ”

“Even after being defeated by Duke Laisha? ”

Looks like it's hard to reawaken.

“Well……. That was... a little harsh. ”

“Own it.”

“Yes. The defeat by Duke Lysha was still too great. ”

“Yes, even Leah can beat Duke Lysha with strategy and tactics. ”

“Leah's strategic tactics……. I never thought such a sentence would exist. ”

You can even win with that.

It was time to think that the world outside the imperial court was a scary place.

“Sister... I'm glad you look good with your butler... ”

Although still staggering, he looks sober, sighing deeply at me and Ast.

“Please, can you say those things in my absence? ”

“But it's Leah. You know him, right? ”

A few months before Astor entered the Imperial Court.

19-year-old Leah was defeated by a six-year-old youngest. Very miserable, too.

I had to acknowledge my brother's genius, but it was very serious when a 19-year-old official article was defeated by a six-year-old.

I heard that Marquis Arrays collapsed on his head due to a headache.

Since then, Leah has been called to the family and many Imperial teachers have been dispatched... but it didn't work very well.

If he was the one who caused the incident, and the brother who took Leah in three consecutive editions, he would know.

Leah's strategic tactics and the word "victory" don't match at all!

But now that I've forgotten something for a while,

“Have you forgotten that I was defeated by even Leah? ”

“Ah……. ”

“You really forgot... …. ”

I forgot Leah's tactics and winning moments.

“This is my brother.... ”

“Cough!”

“I, Your Majesty! ”

My brother vomited blood and fell to the floor.

“Your Grace, I've heard of vomiting blood, but I've never actually seen anyone vomiting blood. ”

“I see it now. ”

“That's right.”

“Your Majesty! Please stop. Please... help us preserve your spirit! ”

He caught his fallen brother vomiting blood, and his next of kin begged for a little tear.

“ ……. ”

By comparison,

“What, that look? ”

“Did you see anything? ”

“For the first time in your life, tell me how you felt when you saw a man who was shocked by a horse and vomited blood? ”

I was speechless for a moment.

I told you to tell me what you felt when you saw your normal next of kin, and then your brother collapsed and told you to tell me how you feel about it.

“What, that look? ”

Ast's words and expression were perfectly matched.

When someone hears you, make it look like you usually do that.

“I, Your Majesty……. ”

In fact, his next of kin was holding him and distancing himself from me.

“Ast……. ”

Where do you think you're going with my image?

Is he a spy?

I doubted whether someone had sent a spy to bring my reputation to the ground in a moment.

If Ast was a spy, he would have sent one of my brothers and sisters.

“It can't be. ”

No one was distributed big enough to have a lunatic like that.

“Nothing, Your Grace? ”

The door to the barracks is open.

Only your brother's escort knight and my escort, Leah, are the only people allowed in.

“I've been on a mission...?" ”

Leah was my escort.

“Did you do that? ”

Leah starts blabbing nonsense as soon as she comes in.

“Ha……. ”

My head hurts.

Why should I listen to that?

“What?”

“You did it. You did it! I thought this would happen someday.... ”

What the hell...? So is Ast. So is Leah.

“What do you usually think about...? ”

The Pokémon's body weakens.

I wanted to fall like my brother, but my deacons and escorts were different from my brother's deacons.

Maybe they'll let me down when they see me go down.

“Knng... ”

I couldn't show my ugly face, so I held on tight to my feet.

“Leah, what on earth did you do? ”

“You can tell this is even me! Blood on the floor! ”

The blood she spilled just before is on the floor.

“And King Raid, who appears to be the master of the blood, falls down, and Lord Meylan, the royal butler of King Raid, looks at Her Majesty with a frightened glance! ”

That's what I heard.

“So you have finally! ”

“Finally?”

“You must have drawn your sword to become emperor! ”

Emperor.

“Why are you doing that...? ”

Even if it wasn't meant to be, it wouldn't have meant to be emperor.

“Even the Empire's most freed king now lives like a bird in a cage. ”

He was the father who fled the Imperial Court in his youth and became a swordsman.

But as I became emperor, all that freedom disappeared.

Now, the only joy is to visit the Imperial Palace through a secret passageway secretly made.

It was also possible to break through many hardships and adversities and sneak out.

“That doesn't bother me. ”

As a royal, I knew I had a lot to live for.

And that alone was enough to accomplish what I wanted.

I didn't want to struggle to get more like other brothers and sisters.

“Well, then why……. ”

Leah looks confused to see if my sincerity had been conveyed.

“Leah, add some asts to your mind. ”

“... You've done it, Lord Ast! ”

“Sir Leah? It sounds like I was gonna do something. ”

Ast's face distorted.

“Lord Leah, what do you usually think? ”

“Ah, I knew Ser Ast would do it! ”

Horses and horses don't mix.

Leah asked you to pay for your injustice to Ast.

And seeing that, he passed out with his next of kin who didn't know what to say and his brother in his arms.

“Ha……. ”

Really.

“That's fucked up.”

It was fucked up.
