"If that person is a phony, where has the real current Virgin gone...?

"Hey there cleric! You said earlier," How can you help a true current Virgin? 'Did you hear? What if that imposter did something to the current Virgin!?

The heavy ministers who returned to me make a scene.

Lloyd looked silently at the difficult question to answer. It was Keefa who answered.

"The Duke of Eigner knows that."

"Huh...?

The Duke laughed bitterly in front of the pompous heavy ministers.

"Your Highness really seems to want to tailor me to a sinner. I was also surprised that the imposter was turning into the present Virgin. Your Highness said it had something to do with me and her, but it's impossible. Ask her and you'll see - well, you can't ask anymore."

Shake your head to the side, unfortunately.

The fake Virgin has disappeared, but Liz also found it rather convenient for the Duke. Because after Sheena, no one knew what the Duke had done.

Keefa went on fine.

"It's okay. Because I know exactly what the Duke is guilty of. It is a crime of civil unrest, and national treason. You tailored Sheena to be the Virgin of Colorado and sent her to the Royal Palace to be my wife. And he tailored his companion, the fake Virgin, to the present Virgin.

I tried to put the future queen and the present Virgin in my hands to manipulate this country from behind. To that end, he deliberately caused a conflict in the Colorado region. Just for my own ambition -! "

That just changed the complexion of the heavy ministers.

But the Duke smiled. You look like you can fool a kid who said something funny.

"Not at all. I refuse to do that. With all due respect, Your Highness seems to be confused by the poison."

And I began to complain to the king about it.

Ignore it and Keefa calls toward the door. As Eric opened the door, a young proximity brought in a person tied behind his back with rope.

"-Seena!?

An eye-catching duke stood up unexpectedly.

Sheena slowly looks up. Its eyes staring at the Duke bore the colour of a quiet resentment that was about to be betrayed and all sins scuffed.

The Duke is dazzled.

"Why......!?

"Is he alive - is he?

When Keefa asked sharply, the Duke turned to his blue face. I can't afford to go there earlier.

"I'm alive. You can also have a conversation."

It's not the answer, I said, but Eric gave me a warm grin. Of course Liz agrees.

- Sheena, who was shot through the chest with an arrow, took her life thanks to the magic of the chief cleric. When I woke up, I saw the soldiers surrounding me and the tough looking Keefa, and it seemed I instantly remembered my situation. My sins and the fact that I was abandoned and pawned by the Duke.

Originally, the Duke's intentions may have been felt lightly as well. I just dared to think about it because if I admit it, I would lose my existential significance.

Keefa nods Sheena with her gaze.

Sheena speaks with a trembling voice, but holding her hands out as hard as she decides her heart. If you don't tell me the truth, the Duke will blame you for all the sins he has done, just as you know better about it.

"I am - formerly Emilia Carfen. Duke Eigner's men took me to the Duke's mansion in the mountains of the Zach region......

So the magician changed his face, and the Duke told me to live as Sheena. If you do that, I'll make you Princess Wang. To that end, the Duke provoked strife in the Colorado region, followed a local man to make me the Virgin of Colorado, and led me to the place where the strife took place. "

"... it's a lie. Bullshit, King."

"It's true! The sorcerer has turned himself into the present Virgin. I was able to use the ban. I don't know what it was. Because the figure of the magician I was seeing in the mansion didn't seem to be what it was either.

He told me to put it inside the temple, and he gave me the Demon Stone too. There is no noticing because of the tension. Multiply the confusion and replace it with a real current Virgin. The Duke understands that...!

"It's a lie! She's lying!

The Duke rarely shouted from the bottom of his belly. I have a burning angry color in my eyes.

Keefa rushed away.

"Really? I've captured the medication that gave Emilia the knowledge of herbs. He's a magnificent, shady man who talks to Boso without moving his mouth too much. I testified that he did have Emilia in that mansion and that he taught her.

And the dean of the monastery where Emilia was. Though the Duke seemed to have stubbornly stopped at the Dean. He said so. Indeed, a man from the Duke's men came to pick up Emilia by order of the Duke. "

The Duke breathed.

"And the other servants. I also spoke to the mansion in the mountains of the Duke's Zach region, his youngest men there and the passers-by delivering their luggage. the way the Duke talks to Sheena and Emilia - who seemed to think they were someone else. And you said you were also secretly talking to a woman magician.

From one point on, they seemed to think that the Duke had finished Emilia because they stopped seeing Emilia plump when she wasn't supposed to be out there. Though he seemed to employ only a few people for fear of discovery. You should have been more attentive to those who work and those who go by. "

I saw the Duke, as Keefa thought of all things.

"It's the same as old times - it's the same. That's what happened five hundred years ago. You are not attentive to those who descend. I think it's just a pawn, less than a livestock just there. So it doesn't interest me. Do as you please.

But, you know, they're the same people, they can see, they can hear. I can talk. Most importantly, I have a properly thought out head. I know exactly what it is. I'm sorry if you make fun of me, I'm sad if you treat me like I'm not here, and I'm sincerely sorry if I get caught in the wrong eye. "

Like the Eugene's of previous life...

Keefa's thoughts, Liz figured it out. I would have passed it on to the Duke as well. Because the Duke's cheeks twitched and he turned away bitterly.

But he immediately raised his face and raised his mouth angle when he said he could still afford to fight back.

"But that doesn't prove that I caused the Colorado conflict, does it? Sheena's testimony alone. Sure, I know that magician. I apologize for lying to you. The sorcerer has said, 'I can change my face', so follow me...

But I had Emilia turned into Sheena to be my adopted daughter. She wanted a daughter that Grace, her daughter, could sin and connect with the good house, send out to her daughter-in-law. It was therefore a real pleasure for Sheena to travel herself to the contested Colorado region, where she was active and became the Virgin of Colorado. It is also a blessing to the temple.

But you seemed to have missed the prospect. I didn't know you were a shy, lying woman......! I swear to God, I didn't know that magician was going to replace the current Virgin. "

When I said it without shame, I turned my cold eyes to Sheena like it was the last finish.

"You're the one who said he wanted to go up to the temple. - Well, you were glued with that magician. He became a guru and wandered His Royal Highness, trying to shoot the throne of the Crown Princess.

And the sorcerer also tried to replace the present Virgin, and you two thought about manipulating this country from behind? How shallow......!

You're the shallow one. Liz thought instantly.

Sheena's complexion changes. My emotions are coming up so intense that I'm shivering my body with wannabes that I can't catch up on whether it's going to be in my mouth.

Keefa exhaled small.

"A local man living in that Colorado region testified. I was hired by the Duke's men to direct Sheena to the disputed area. Moreover, he told his men that he deliberately reversed the sentiments of the nation and fought against it. He said it was all because he was ordered to."

……

The Duke's face paled. You don't think it's possible. In prison, he released the assassin. Like Sheena, she was supposed to have a mouth seal on a Colorado man and a Duke's men.

"A soldier captured the man who snuck into the cell yesterday. Looks like the Dark Earner who undertakes the assassination. Unfortunately, he died himself before I let him testify.

But as soon as I showed him, the duke's man also spoke. Everything the Duke ordered me to do. "

"It's a lie...!

Whatever the duke shook his voice, Keefa continued.

"Unlike a Colorado man, he was covering for you until then. No matter how much you ask, everything you've done is arbitrary, and the Duke has nothing to do with it. Truly, it was loyalty that made me want to look up."

Like Bauer, the deacon of previous life. Like the former Duke, who served wholeheartedly the father of Eugene, the head of the Howard family.

"You're the one who flipped the flag against him like that."

His men realized that the Duke was trying to seal his mouth.

"Your cause of defeat is that you don't live now. I was distracted by my past life, and I don't live in this world."

In a confident and quiet tone, the Duke darkened. I guess I realized there was no escape. He looked around at the heavy ministers like he asked for help, but he was turned hard and distracted from his gaze by the Chancellor.

The king stares silently at the Duke. The Duke complained out loud when he said he couldn't stand that gaze.

"This is a mistake, Your Majesty.... Yes! Someone put me on. I swear I'm not involved in any Colorado conflict, and I'm innocent when it comes to magicians!

There is no room and serenity in the past. It's just the figure of a shallow man who gets stuck with evidence by the time he's completely skinless and manages to escape sin.

The king opened his mouth to the duke with a tenacious expression.

"Too bad, Duke"

Cold tone. Complete denial. The Duke's face blued sassy.

"Keefa told me that the Duke seemed to be involved in the conflict in Colorado. Since then, I've been looking into it myself. So I know that there is no lie whatsoever in what Keefa said.

And about your relationship with the Chancellor. Looks like you have a lot of other people. Those are the rebels who tried to take over this country. Let me swim you, to get them all covered. "

The Chancellor also wolfed and blued.

He squeezed out his words so that the king could spit out his thoughts from behind his body while keeping his gaze on the Duke.

"What the hell do you think people's lives are?"

My cheeks are red. I don't know from the look on your face, but you must be terribly angry inside.

At the same time, however, he endangered the people without realizing the Duke's plans. I also feel responsible as a king.

"I know that you think of me as a harmless king who has no choice but to do so. But I don't think the king has to push through his own strong opinions. Because it makes me selfish. I think it is more important to listen to the opinions of those around us and take them into consideration. To be honest with the people.

But that's why I went around behind my back. It has caused tremendous inconvenience to the Colorado people. Lost lives can never be taken back - "

No one utters a word. He stared wholeheartedly at the king's penance from the bottom of his heart as if everyone had held their breath.

It was the Prime Minister who broke the silence. I complained in a reversed voice.

"My king! I didn't know anything! I can't believe the Duke was trying to do such a great thing!"

"We'll hear plenty of stories later. Take him."

The king said so clearly. Keefa said it was under investigation that the Prime Minister had not been so involved. Still, by threatening him like this, the Chancellor probably tells him everything he knows about the Duke. Rather, that's what I'm up to.

The duke, who at once grew old, and the Chancellor, who continues desperately to plead, are taken by the soldiers.

The heavy ministers looked at each other and spoke out with a spurting momentum.

"I can't believe Duke Eigner was thinking about that big thing... I'm surprised!

"It's a scary thing. I didn't know the Chancellor was a guru too......!

The Duke stumbled by accident. Someone deliberately put his foot out. The Duke, unnecessarily on both knees on the floor, must have been hurt by the remaining pride. I glanced at him with burning eyes.

"I'm sorry," he said, looking back from the front and apologizing in a cold voice was the Knights' captain.

Why? In Liz's ear I thought, Keefa whispered with her mouth.

"He was in charge of stopping the conflict in the Colorado region. I am familiar with local conditions. We put a lot of people at risk, and there were casualties."

Convinced. It would be unforgivable for the Duke to have caused that on purpose. Because it was for my own desire, too.

"It would be a tough investigation. Sin is heavy, too."

Liz nodded and approached the Duke. There's something I haven't told you yet.

With both knees on the floor, the Duke was stunned. I was given a cold gaze until the Knights Commander, and maybe my present and future situation finally stuck in my head.

Before such a duke, Liz stood.

Remove the hair decoration with the flower decoration from the pocket of the piece. It's what Sheena had. It was made to mimic what Cecil got Eugene in his previous life.

The moment I put it in my sight, the Duke's face swelled.

Originally, because of this, Keefa planned to love Sheena. Yet I let my face wander so magnificently that it was difficult to see if I learned anger at what Liz had, or if it was unbearable for civilians to look down on me.

Liz looked straight back at that face filled with anger. I don't feel strange and scared.

Deacon of the Howard family in previous life. When it was Cecil, he looked down on people with eyes they didn't even think of as people, and they lied. I had no choice but to run back then.

But not now. I'm not alone. There's Keefa. There are both Saint Dragon and Lloyd. I got a lot of allies. On Liz's own.

And there's something Liz can do for herself.

"I'll take this hair decoration"

It's weird to praise, but I think it's well done. So reminiscent of previous life.

Besides, the material is cheap, but I knew it was a first-class product made by the Duke of Famous Silfer.

You figured out Liz's intentions, and Keefa nodded to say so.

"Don't be ridiculous. Why are you..."

Liz said slowly, turning to the Duke as he spurned.

"Interest. of five hundred years."

I guess I don't know what that means, the Duke frowned.

"Five hundred years ago, I didn't receive Eugene's salary for working for the Howard family."

Give me the salary Eugene asked the butler to send to Cecil.

"... what?

The Duke frowned suspiciously. He seemed desperate to think about it, but after a while he looked stunned. Everything that's happened so far has come to an end, like that.

"No way... what you looked like in your previous life...!

Liz looked quiet with a faint voice. Put your strength into the red eye.

A deep shade that sees everything, having overcome many difficulties. The Duke also seemed to feel a variety of aura-like lights up to the divine surrounding Liz's entire body. Breathtaking as if under pressure.

Keefa stood next door to protect Liz. A decoration with a royal crest, lowered to the waist, rocks.

The Duke's hip, which was in a standing knee condition, broke and he butted on the floor. At the same time, he seems to have lost even the ability to keep his body.

It's not the same as in previous life.

As I realized the true value of those whom I was turning to my enemies.

The Duke covered his head with both hands and groaned like the end of the world.

"Get up! Let's go!

A soldier yelled at me, and the Duke rose with a roar. The hopelessness of the future gone seemed to surround my body.

The Dukes leave the room so they can be taken. The last time I turned around just a little bit, I lost hope and looked old for decades at once -.

Liz exhaled heavily.

(It's over...)

Fatigue pushed me closer and slowly dropped my gaze on my right hand. The hair decoration in my hands is old. I'm not really old, I'm deliberately making it look old, but the hair decorations in Liz's memory are shiny new.

Feeling the weight of five hundred years on the matter, Keefa gently took the hair decoration.

"This hair decoration is expensive but fake. I don't deserve Liz."

I smiled gently.

"I'll give you a new hair decoration. Something that suits Liz, something Liz deserves."

Five hundred years ago, the words said to Eugene came back to life. "I'll give Cecil the ring" -.

The memories turned back, all at once. Not all pleasant memories. Still...

"Yeah. Thanks"

Liz laughed back.

This world is different from the previous life. There were times when I denied the previous life. I've also felt burdened with how I was born with such painful memories.

But it's only in this world that there was a previous life.

Let's be proud of that...
