“Just calm down. Confucius, you're a sight for sore eyes. ”
Raviel touches the chair next to him.
The debt used to knock on the armrest of the chair was also a commodity I gave him.
I bit my lip.
It wasn't just an expensive gift. He was the enemy of my master, and now he was a debt made with great care by the Muslim monks and subliminal monks who had retreated under the Taesoo laws of the Moon Moon.
Raviel knew I was coming. She was wise. She devised a way to silence my emotions much more effectively than just saying, 'Calm down.'
Indeed, Laviel's intentions were right. When I saw the item that was touching the end of his fate, I poured ice on the burning heart.
I just spilled a piece of ice on lava.
“…… if I don't live now, when should I hold it? ”
“No matter what time it is, no matter what moment it is, it is only clear that the place for you to live is not in front of me. It's not a matter of timing, it's a matter of place. ”
“I know. But I don't want my anger to become blunt. The more I talk to Raviel, the more irrational my emotions will get. ”
I said najik.
No, ever since I realized Raviel's death, my voice has only been quiet. It was not to keep my cool. Rather, it was the opposite.
It was because I didn't want the heat of my anger to seep through my heart with a single voice. Just one thing.
“I want to be covered in blood with pure anger and pure emotion. Tell me first who dared to lay a hand on Raviel. ”
“It sounds like I just want to go crazy in my ears. ”
“I heard it right away. ”
"......."
Raviel raises the tip of his lips.
She seemed to be satisfied, she seemed to have found a new toy, and for a short while she looked at the waves of my emotions and felt like she was shrugging.
When I saw the curves of my lips engraved on the white face, I realized.
It's over.
Raviel was more interested in my reaction to the death than in his own.
“Do you want to kill the man who killed me? ”
“…… Yes. ”
I could feel the blood in my mouth. The tooth that bit his lip dug its way into the red lining.
“How do you want to kill? ”
“Torn, I want to kill you. ”
I knew which end this conversation was heading towards and which sea it was flowing into. Knowing this, I turned my teeth into a wheel and my tongue into a stream of water.
Because I couldn't keep quiet about the questions of my loved ones. Never.
“I want to cut my lips according to the lines of my teeth. Gear should see the gaps in his teeth and the gaps in his cut lips twisting his voice. ”
“Eyes?”
“I'm going to dig up his missing blood vessels and nerves and lead them to my error. And then I'm going to put it back in the eyehole. Every blink of an eye causes me enough pain to wish I was blind. ”
"......."
Raviel's smile grows deeper.
Now I can see it. Under her left ear, her slender neck twitches briefly. Raviel was tasting the frenzy of her husband, whom I had completely let go of.
“Raviel. ”
“I see. My mind was troubled. Close the door."
Raviel points his eyes at the wide open bedroom door behind my back.
“I can't let others see your voice and your face like this. It's a luxury that should only be allowed to me. ”
“Close it, Confucius. ”
We're closed.
The air in the bedroom became even more toxic.
The poison was blue lily.
“Hands? Wrists? The back of your hand. What are you going to do with your nails? ”
The source of the poison was the red eye.
"I want to hear it."
I opened my mouth.
“Hear, my love. ”
I told him.
All the hells humanly imaginable, even the warmth of hell, flowed from my mouth. With the warmth of the heart and the poison of blood.
Raviel enjoyed my warmth and poison. You can say you've eaten.
The more I roared, my anger wanting red blood, the more radiant Raviel's red eyes became. My poison was as sweet as life to her.
“So, are you going to kill it? ”
Raviel bites softly like a hungry lion. I feel like I've finished all my feasts.
“Yes."
“Few of the shadows you reap are non-murderers. Some will be murderers, some will be butchers. ”
“Ah……."
“Whoever killed me deserves to pay. Confucius, my love will make it come true, and I won't stop you. However, I don't know if I'm being weighed fairly. ”
I have a forehead.
Raviel was ordering me to be fair. I was the one who accepted Estelle and even forgave her for playing. Raviel said that the standards established when he received them would have to be applied again.
“Raviel……, but… ”
“Don't you think I felt the same anger when you died? ”
His heart slowed down.
“How many times do you think you've died since you split the ring with me? ”
“How many times do you think I've endured it? ”
“Confucius.”
Raviel smiles.
“You will have to endure as much as I endure. ”
I couldn't say anything.
Raviel knew of my anger. And a way to calm anger. Not a word that will not provoke me to anger.
Even if I had something more to say, it wouldn't have leaked out of my mouth.
Raviel grabbed my wrist and blocked my lips. It's hot, like Dale's tongue. The fever from my heart, too, was clear that she had taken everything.
The closed door does not open.
4.
Eventually, we started talking calmly because the sun was setting and the sun was setting and the silver moon was about to come out the window.
“The Crown Prince.”
Raviel speaks in a calm voice. It always sounds like the bass of a voice is submerged in an icy sea. It was my favorite voice, Raviel.
“Damn it.”
But what Raviel revealed included someone I could never like.
“That razorblade. Not enough blonde hair, and now she's blunt and blunt in the brain? ”
“Well, I always expect you to compare the Crown Prince to something else. I'm satisfied again.... ”
The fury that had barely subsided over the course of four hours ignites again.
However, there was only ash left in the place where the fire had already been swept away. As Raviel intended, there was no shortage of anger.
The water seeps in from a place where the fire never burns. It was rational. It was cold judgment. Like the old moisture, rationality attached to my skull sent me judgments that were almost habitual.
“…… not really. If it weren't for the Imperial Court, we wouldn't even have the courage to defeat the Duke of Ivan. ”
Once the lubricant went back, the rest was simple.
My accident was swift.
“But Emperor Barge is a wise monarch. I know the empire's power has been extended to the Ivan family. It's not an entire imperial craft, it's an imperial prince's venom. ”
“Hmm.”
Raviel twists his chin.
She was having fun, and she kept looking at me.
“But when Raviel dies, everyone doubts the imperial court. The emperor may claim he is innocent, but it will be difficult to stop people from doubting him. That's when the Crown Prince rebelled against the Emperor. ”
Pow.
Biting my molar, I gave my reasoning.
“[The emperor was blinded by his power, assassinating the loyalty of the empire and the duc of Ivanxia. As the Crown Prince, we cannot let the empire crumble. Therefore, I will tear up the tears of blood. Though I will disobey my father, I will gladly raise my sword if I can save the Empire by myself.] ”
Raviel did not disagree with me.
That appearance gave me confidence. Crazy son of a bitch. He's blind to power. I let him live as an heir to the Empire, and I closed my eyes to the emperor and the imperial court. How dare you.
“Though now divorced, the Crown Prince was once Raviel's fiancée. [Though you may have suffered a disagreeable end, you cannot ignore the death of a nobleman who had been engaged in the past.] You must be eager to earn the Duke's favor by howling for a worthy cause. ”
“What a pity……."
Raviel sighs in a sweet slumber.
“People always admire your absence. You don't know that there is a well-thrown sword hidden in your head. What do the followers know? ”
"......."
I coughed.
“…… If the Crown Prince only gains the Duke's support, in fact, he will carry the nobles on his back. I would have counted the odds that the countermeasure would succeed by rolling my head on the other side. Yes, on the other hand. ”
I looked at Raviel.
“In order for this plan to succeed, we need to convince people that [the perpetrator of the Duke of Ivanca is Emperor]. Raviel, where did you close your eyes tomorrow? ”
“The Empire should rejoice as the moon of Ivansa is wise. ”
Raviel was completely positive of my reasoning.
“I've been waiting in the imperial palace to know the king. ”
I knew it.
“…… Poison, not assassination. He's the one who left Raviel alone and was obsessed with gold trading. You must have seduced some Imperial acolytes with your pitiful face. ”
“That's right, if you draw 120 on the answer sheet with 100 points, no one will blame you. ”
“The Crown Prince himself would not have been in the Imperial Palace at the time. That way I can avoid any doubts. What, did you go hunting somewhere? ”
“150 points.”
“Ha. You must have taken a few Imperial Guards as an excuse to hunt. As soon as we hear that Raviel is dead, we can march ahead and enter the Imperial Palace! ”
“200 points……. I'm in trouble, Duke. Even if I am a duke, if I give more than twice as many points, I will have no doubt whether I am fair as a judge. Are you trying to put me on trial? ”
“Very well. I'll come back with the Crown Prince and kill the pieces of the Crown Prince's hunting party." ”
“After subtracting 100 points again and hitting 100 points on the road, your consideration is truly profound. ”
"......."
I looked at Raviel.
Raviel also looked at me.
“Come to think of it, five hours is too little to put my anger to rest. ”
“Oh.”
“On second thought, it's been a long time since I've had a chance to meet Raviel and spend this alone, and I'm so frustrated that I can't enjoy this moment alone because of the Crown Prince's cub. Son of a bitch!”
“So?”
“Just play with me all day. ”
“Are you willing to pass the day on to the Crown Prince's horde? ”
“No, I'm going to play a day and then I'm going to spin a day. ”
“That's a good point. I can't find any reason to refuse your offer." "
We played all day.
[You're dead.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
And I played one more day.
[You're dead.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
After playing, it became difficult to find a reason not to play for another day.
[You're dead.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
Assassination? Power struggle and political struggle? Fuck off.
I'm going to play with someone I love.
[You're dead.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
It took us a week to come to our senses. Beyond the window, the silver moon still shines in the same position. Raviel and I muttered side by side, side by side, contemplating, and side by side.
“Was it a little harsh? ”
“I think it was a little harsh... ”
“It's been a long week...."
“It could have been a week……."
“Then I guess I'll just have to play one more day. ”
“Yes, just one more day of play and restraint. ”
[You're dead.]
[Returns to 24 hours ago.]
So two weeks went by.
I'll keep my mouth shut for two weeks about what kind of shit we fucked up. But imagine what would happen if you could go back in time and do something during that time that people don't remember. It was only about three times what I imagined.
We were perfectly satisfied.
“What are you going to do now, Confucius? ”
You shrug your shoulders in Raviel's perfectly satisfied voice.
“I'll visit the Crown Prince first. ”
“Don't kill me. If you want to kill, you have to kill it quietly, not now, but later, when no one cares. ”
“Yes, I'll be back. ”
Yeah, I'm not gonna kill you.
It only shows more pain than death.
