“The face of a stranger. ”
The baby lily said.
“Has the constellation that sent you not explained anything? This is rare. The constellation will start with as much information as possible when the apostle is sent. Are you having a bad relationship with the constellation? ”
“An apostle..."
“You really know nothing. Interesting."
Lilies opened the drawer. The Sand Glass. It's a tool that looks exactly like the Sand Glass you just turned upside down. Chop, chop! Young-Ae presses the doorbell on her desk lightly.
The door to the Oval Office is open.
“You wanted to see me, miss? ”
“Fifteen more minutes. Rest easy, it might add more. ”
“Sounds like you enjoyed your conversation. Should I follow the car?”
“Mmm-hmm. Germanic acid. ”
“I understand.”
The servant bows his head and leans out.
I didn't know what to say, so I stood in a daze. When she saw me, she raised her eyes slightly.
“That's all right. Stand comfortably. ”
I didn't say sit comfortably.
“Which constellation sent you? Mutia? Hisimit Creetz or Lazaro? Psyme? Hmm. You look like you've never heard of him. Whose proxy are you? ”
“The Librarian of the Worlds..."
I was confused in my head. I felt that the princess in front of me was not an ordinary person, but I didn't expect this. At least I thought of the name of the Librarian later, because I had caught up to the last mindfulness.
“No, the Head of the Gallery sent me. ”
“Library.”
The lily infant turns her left hand to turn the pen.
“The corners... Ah, the hamstrings."
Hamustra.
Real name.
This man knows the true name of the constellation.
“Hasn't Hamustra explained anything to you? ”
“... because the librarian doesn't want to get involved in the book of revelations. Instead of giving us the information in advance, we want to find out for ourselves. ”
“The Book of Revelation?”
“A world where there are no constellations and the walls have fallen.... and that's what the librarian calls the world that is doomed. ”
Lilies narrowed their eyes as if they were funny. Her eyes are red and narrow, but her gaze does not blur. He had the color of the gaze that overwhelmed the viewer.
“You're arrogant as a constellation. Calling the world your own way. The Book of Revelations... Hmm. It's not wrong to say we'll perish someday. I cannot simply hand over my soul. ”
I blinked.
“... Wait, you still don't know anything. Aren't you possessed by the baroness's acolyte, the Baron of Gold, aiming for my soul? ”
I shake my head. This is the first time I've heard of it.
"......."
The Lily's infant keeps her lips shut. Her eyes start to look like a natural monument. Glug. She keeps staring at me, and opens the drawer and pulls something out. It's the third hourglass.
Shorty.
“You wanted to see me, miss? I just brought my car. ”
“Rest another 15 minutes. ”
“The kids are going to love it today. ”
The servant is out.
Little Lily looked at me through a cup of tea while sipping her tea.
“Hey, baroness butler. ”
“Oh, call me Kim Gong-ja. This is her real name.”
“No, that's rude. Where do you want to call me by my real name? Blame yourself for being possessed by a butler, not a nobleman. ”
Isn't this guy just a trifle ahead of time?
“Anyway, I see that you are as pure as a blank sheet. You don't seem to have received [Attack House]. ”
What's a raid house?
“Here's the thing. ”
The Lily girl pulls the paper out of the drawer.
A paper the size of A4 had a circular handwriting.
+
1. Lilies are weak to sunlight. Dating time should be night and evening rather than day.
2. Lilies like irritating foods because their taste is dull.
3. Lilies love white flowers. However, I was tired of receiving too many lilies. Note when choosing a gift.
4. Lilies are pragmatists. I prefer to talk about politics, diplomacy and money. It doesn't help to recite romantic poetry.
.
10. Lilies are faithful. It is okay to gossip about the Empire or the Crown Prince, but it is never acceptable for others to do so. Caution.
+
I was speechless. Crazy. What is that?
“This is the raid house where the apostle who came to attack me on the sixth time. An apostle from a constellation called Mahos. He called this the Attack Root. ”
My mouth opened.
“Go, Attack Root..."
“I poisoned it because it was ridiculous, and then I took it. ”
The lily infant said boldly.
“When I died at my hands, [I acted in a thorough attack, so why didn't you come over!] screaming. It's like he's been wronged. But I am the unfair one. How can there be an ambush in a man's mind? ”
[Silver plated heart complains.]
“It's easy to see people. Surely, if you want to gain my heart, you must come to me fairly. But it's a raid house, so it's a raid route. They rot from the root. ”
“That's... right. ”
“You're making sense. ”
Lilies put down their teacups.
“There is a reason I commend you. It's not just because I feel smart, but because I feel like I see people in my world as people. ”
“Oh, yeah? I think you're just saying that.... ”
“There were many livestock that did not even meet their natural conditions. Animals that don't regard people as people. I think I'm pretty sure I'm a person on a subject like that. It's a mess."
I killed my breath for a moment.
Little Lily looked at me like that and saw my chin.
“Hmmm?"
Moaning for a moment, Silver Lily's infant nods.
“I see.”
Biceps.
“Does this mean anything to you? ”
Biceps.
“Have you seen many like them? Or have you ever seen such a thing? ”
Biceps.
“If not him, too. Your precious one said the same thing--”
“My lord.”
I hung up and went in.
I could no longer bear the feeling of splitting my chest, tearing out my ribs, and looking into the heart of flying magnifying glass.
[Silver plated heart looks at you.]
I couldn't give him any more control.
I told you.
“The spiritual one who speaks such a thing possessed me to a commoner, not a nobleman."
The Lily didn't blink an eye.
“What, are you so disappointed that I didn't call you by your real name? ”
“I'm not just saying that the Holy Spirit is not in the best position to say it. ”
“I'm in no position to talk nonsense. Like a bad butler who blew up the Academy. ”
The voice of the baby silver lily who said that was somehow pleasant.
“But I have to admit, it's a valid point. ”
So let's get back to the basics, and Silver Lily baby coughed.
“So? ”
“Yes?”
“I know you don't want my soul. Then, what did they want to do to get here, beyond the boundaries of the world? This is a world that repeats for 10 days forever. ”
[Silver plated heart doubts your authenticity.]
“I hope the constellations didn't send you here to worship because they hated you. I hear Hamustra is close to the whole gang. But that doesn't mean you have to go on vacation or enjoy yourself. Answer me, you actor who plays the baron of gold. ”
“I…"
“I don't listen to lies. As soon as you put a false answer in your mouth, whatever your purpose is, it will be impossible to get it from me. I don't show my heart to people who don't show their own heart first. ”
I thought about it.
"I want to make your world 25th floor. ’
Do you really need this stage? No. Even if you choose another stage, there is no problem for our tower.
‘There are fragments of my sword in this world. ’
Do I have to collect all the fragments and complete the sword? Not even that. Finding the sisters to Sparkle will make the owner strong for me, but in return, it will only make me stronger.
"......."
Why stay on this stage now.
“…… I don't know love yet. ”
“What?"
“I have no idea what it's like to be in a relationship. You may not know it, but there is [romance] in the genres of the world. I think this is the place to learn love. ”
When the teacher performed the last massage.
The messenger shouts, blocking the teacher's sword.
This Confucius has not yet tasted the pleasures of the world.
Did you know? He's never been in love with anyone. I've never been in a relationship!
It was deeply imprinted on me.
"If I don't have enough, I want to learn. No, I want to know. I can't believe you didn't know that. It's unfair. It doesn't feel 100% full. ”
Little Lily looked at my face. Her red eyes, perhaps because of my mood, seemed a bit overwhelmed.
“So you want to learn about love? ”
“That's right."
“To me?"
“I... I don't know. ”
“Explain.”
I've made up my mind.
“To be precise, I want to learn love in this‘ world ’. ”
“The world.”
“Yes, I want to know that I'm short. I want to feel it.”
“Then why did you come to me? Your lady. It would be quicker to find the Golden Hawk. ”
Inquisitor.
The Golden Hawk.
“No.”
“Why? You don't like possessed people? ”
“No, it's not a matter of like. He is..."
"If I'm like you," he said.
I told you.
“He stands more than me."
"......."
“To learn, you have to learn from someone who knows better. ”
Little Lily drank a cup of tea. Silence for a moment.
“Well, I don't think this gold medallion is enough wood to teach someone love. Rather, it seemed like a position to be taught. ”
“Yes."
“But I still don't think there's any reason to come to me. ”
“There is a reason. ”
I empowered him.
I put my thoughts in the dungeon in my head.
“I want to understand you. ”
The words seemed unexpected to me. A slight splash of tea drenched the front of the dress.
She blinks and says,
“Do you want to understand...? ”
“Yes, for the Crown Prince or for the Empire, and I don't know yet, but the Princess is devoted to her life. I wonder how that's possible. I want to know what you're feeling and how you feel. If it's because of love, I want to feel the same way about you. ”
"......."
"It's a little embarrassing and embarrassing. That's my honest answer. ”
The lily infant was silent for a while.
“This is,”
Now it looks clear.
“This is really the first time I've seen you. ”
The baby lily was in a state of panic.
“I want to know love. That's a speech that doesn't scare people. How could you possibly want to understand me? Do not say" understand "carelessly. It's a word that poisons people. Understanding is no different from taking responsibility. However.”
“Librarian.”
I raised my head and looked up into the air. There, of course, was no librarian.
But the librarian will be listening to our conversation now, and the hunters in the tower will be watching.
“Please stop broadcasting for a moment. ”
The air in the Oval Office was quiet.
“I just want to say something to the Lily Soul. ”
After a while, my voice responded to my request.
[The Corner Librarian is happy to accept your request.]
[Skip scenes is allowed for 10 minutes.]
Okay. Okay.
I looked back at the lily spirit.
“I'm a regretter, too. ”
I opened my mouth.
“But I'm a little different from the princess. ”
“What's different? ”
“The princess said she would repeat the last 10 days of her life. I go back to the day before when I die. ”
"......."
“It doesn't just go back to normal. If someone kills me, I can take a peek at his trauma. ”
“Trauma?”
“Yes."
My voice ran low in the office.
“I can see the scars, the memories, the scenes that a person has in the deepest of their heart. If something precious has been destroyed, I can see the memories of it being destroyed. ”
I didn't have to choose my words carefully. Just by opening my mouth, if I let my tongue go, the words I wanted to convey came out on their own. I suddenly realized by telling my secret to the Lily spirit.
“I mean, I can understand other people a little bit better. ”
Me.
I wanted to tell someone my story.
To the same person. To someone who lives a life similar to mine.
"......."
The lily infant was quiet. As my story continued, her eyes calmed. I could feel the spiritual heart listening to me seriously.
“A kind of skill. It's technology. I'm afraid I'll get used to understanding others easily. One of my most trusted people said, [Never get used to skills.] By the way..."
“I see.”
“If I understand it alone.... ”
“That's not going to make any sense. ”
“But we can't leave people behind. Because…."
“Even if I give up, they'll wither, twist, and die. ”
"......."
“Even if it's hypocrisy, I want you to know that I'm here, thinking of you, and I'm guarding this place. How blessed is the life that is possible? Don't you think?”
I was strangled for a moment.
"…… Yes. ”
"Fool.”
The Lily baby closed her eyes.
"One moment of understanding, but eternal responsibility. ”
You volunteered to go to hell.
The Lily girl mutters like that and then is silent.
[The Head of the Gallery announces the end of 'Skip Scene’.]
The Duke's spirit opens its eyes.
"Good. Baron of the Golden Hawk's acolytes. ”
She holds one of the hourglasses upside down at her desk. Looking down at the sand slipping on the glass, the Lilies said quietly.
"I'll teach you love. ”
