“Pride. Isn't that Lyre a person who has been deeply involved in human trafficking or backstage operations?”
Question 1.
The words came to my mind in pride. I realize that this is what Vest has offered me as a condition for my cooperation.
Lyre's amnesia. It wasn't a mistake on the part of Vest. It was simply the result of Vest's designated memories of his past being heavily implicated.
Originally, only memories of being captured by the back office, being sold into human trafficking, and being treated as slaves with injustice would be erased. That way, you can only erase memories of slavery after being captured by the operation without specifying a period of time.
But not Lyre, who lived in back office.
For him, who had been in the back-office since he got to the heart of things, the memories of the back-office were all. There are no memories of him who was abandoned by his parents at a young age and who was trying to be used as a back office. I could only live in that world.
And even though pride isn't everything, now I understand that it is. I thought that all my memories had disappeared on the street, but I wanted to deceive you here.
However, it was impossible for me to poke Vest's sharp gaze at me like I was piercing myself. I can't tell my uncle who has forgiven me for his cooperation, that he can bury me here.
Holding down your chest with both hands, Pride feels his heart slap hard. "Yes..." he replied, a voice so slim that he felt sorry for himself. When asked if he was selling human beings, he shakes his head sideways and shakes his head vertically when asked if he works behind the scenes. To her answer, Vest, who was still breathing, presented the second question without resting there.
“Do you have any assurances that if he recovers his memory, he will not commit a crime as a back worker again?”
"... I don't think I can say I will ever..."
Falsehood is unacceptable.
It meant not only as the first princess, but also as the regent's opponent for West. If I misinterpret or lie here, I'm sure that the negotiations will be destroyed here. I have to get a nod in order to convince him.
There is no guarantee that Lyre, who has recovered her memory, will not set foot in the same position again. The more he lost all his memories, the more deeply he was absorbed in life. Still, when I think of Ray, who admires him, and Thomas, who I met today, I want to believe. At least I don't think he's a bad guy from the root. I even risked my life to save my young Ray.
In response to the prideful answer, "I suppose so," West asked her the following question without looking deeply.
"Besides, if I were to restore his memory, it would also afflict [Thomas] now."... you'll know what kind of treatment you've been subjected to and what crimes you've committed. "
The words breathe in pride.
Originally, it was only natural to recall why Vest had vanished. While confirming the reaction of pride, he muttered to himself from West, "If you put it back, you can only keep it in the memories of the operation."
If only that memory, which is also most of Lyre's life, were recovered, the influence of [training] would remain vanished. However, I can remember all the memories until I was captured by the back office, sold into human trafficking, and finally sold into slavery by Rajya. Furthermore, I will recall the many people who were guilty as "back office workers".
I didn't have to think about how shocking it was for Thomas, who now wanted to live in seclusion. Even in the game, he was suffering from memory loss and refused to remember.
Vest adds to the blinking pride as his fist on his knee grew stronger.
"Again, I don't care if you bring back Lyre's memories. It is my responsibility. [Treatment] and his previous record are neither good nor bad. Whether he's a criminal or a sinner in the past, my return to memory is a different story.... but I'm not going to do it anymore."
From the moment you're captured to the moment you're trafficked, it's still good. However, I am not responsible for my own past or suffering from sins that have nothing to do with it.
If he wants it so badly afterwards, Vest won't try to erase his memory again. That's not because he's been a victim of human trafficking, but because it's only Rhea's fault.
Whether you suffer sin or regret that you have regained your memory, you can't go back. Pride, who understood Vest's meaning correctly, did not ask any more.
I know from the outset that Vest, who is strict on the rules, will only be able to work with us if we stay within the bounds of royalty. Rather, even those who work behind the scenes are equally grateful for their cooperation in minimal measures as a people. It is not uncommon for the regent, the upper echelons, and the upper echelons of society to say that it is nothing more than a reward for being a back-office operator or ex-convict.
Understanding that it was a generous treatment, the pride of silence could not be answered immediately.
And that was also what Vest expected. After a few seconds of silence, I grabbed too much and my nails started to bite, my fists and my shoulders tightened, and my face tied my lips tightly with a steep expression. I knew that would be the case with Pride.
"... how is he now?" I changed my name to Thomas. "
"No... I'm very satisfied."
I'm trying to come back to life. Pride also thinks that Thomas' eyes were straight and without lying.
I don't know what Ray and he were talking about. However, he has chosen [now] after accepting the past that has disappeared. I don't know if it was the way of life he wanted to live if he had been in business for that long. If you think it's possible that when he realized it, he only had that way of living, then letting his memory recover might interfere with his new way of life.
That made me feel terribly hypocritical about being in the middle of a negotiation.
"Then let's hear it, Pride." Do you really think you should get your memory back as a lyre? He remembered all his sins and hard memories, and even though he was living peacefully as a people, he was still in danger of dyeing himself again in the back office.... and even if he were to suffer the most and regret it himself. Do you still want me to give him back his memories? "
I hope so.
His voice echoed without a second thought.
She didn't hesitate to expect it, and West's brows rose. I didn't expect her to answer immediately, which I thought would get me jammed again.
Her fist clenched from her arms to her shoulders, and her shoulders were raised. The purple eyes glowed as the sharpness of the catching gaze grew even more intently.
Vest, who never wanted silence, opened his mouth to encourage her. I greeted her with a glimpse of my gaze from my previous position.
"Why? Tell me why." Is it for the young man named Ray? "
“More than that, I think there are memories that are irreplaceable to Thomas. Of course, it's not just my will. If Uncle West wants to help, please check with Mr. Thomas again to see if he wants to recover his memory. If he doesn't want his memories back... then he respects his will.”
The possibilities are not nil either.
Thomas was interested in his past, but if he remembered it completely, he would be prepared for it. If you recall the past that has no influence on your personality, you may not even be [Thomas]. At that time, my memories as a lyre were holding me back.
It's close to betting that Thomas, who wants peace, will want to return to himself, who has a past enough to be expelled to trial. As Vest said, he may regret it. In that case, the fact that Thomas will suffer because of what he is trying to do remains the same.
Twist his life itself with his hypocritical self-satisfaction. There is no guarantee that it will be as good as before. At least the game's lyre had a good relationship with Ray after forgetting the past.
However, as a result of recovering memories, it is possible that the relationship will break if, on the contrary, "I did not want to remember".
“Just,” Pride continues to say. After that, I regretted, and I understood the fear of bearing another sin that I could not turn back, and then I relied on my uncle.
“He wants to choose his own way of life, not his own.”
However, I do not want them to choose the path presented in front of them as "this was the only path".
I want you to choose a way to live knowing both your past self and your present self, who are satisfied with the way you live. That was the Las Boss Pride Royal Ivy's lying wish.
With a straight voice of pride, Vest is silent. It was her belief that the memories of yesterday came back to life.
"Besides,... no matter how hard the memories are, there's someone waiting for him all the time." I also want to believe in Ray who believes in him. ”
Hold your chest down with both hands and make sure your heartbeat is calmer than before. I felt my expression muscles soften as they continued to strengthen naturally.
Even if it's a hard memory, I think pride is definitely a hope if there are people who think about themselves so much.
If you erase the memories of the recapture battle, you won't be annoyed by what you've done in the past, but at the same time, you'll forget that a lot of people have been desperate to reach out for you and continue to do so. I can definitely say that if I hang on the scale, I will definitely choose a path that will continue to be tormented by my memory.
Now that I've shouldered the sin, I still have people with me.
And Rheer has forgotten all the memories of the [important people] for pride. The harder it is in the past, the bigger the irreplaceable presence that lit up at that time.
In the game, only [benefactor] and really a glimpse of their past are depicted. Still, I want to believe in Ray, who admires Ray for his desperate search for him. It had nothing to do with the memory of my previous life, but it was my own conclusion that I had seen purely realistic Ray and Thomas.
Grasping his wrists, he gazed back at his pride with a strong glance, but gradually Hooo...... his whole body relaxed with a long sigh. Slowly lean against the back of the sofa to feel weak.
"... you're nothing like you used to be."
Eh...? That said, my pride returned a big blink to Vest, who seemed more nostalgic than dazed.
In the past, I thought that the word "hypocritical self-satisfaction" might have been overlaid with myself before the age of eight, but I think it is different from the expression of Vest. His mouth slightly laughed as he pressed the wrinkles between his brows with his fingers.
While thinking about when it might have happened, Pride goes back in time with Vest, but I can't think of anything.
Thinking of her reaction as unconscious, Vest remembers her [past]. She was only eleven at the time, when she was involved in the trial for the first time. The first thing she did when she was entrusted to Rosa, the queen, to decide whether the execution was a slave contract or a slave contract.
Val, which punishment do you want?
I want him to choose his path to life, not the way to erase it.
It hasn't changed at all since then.
Whether the other person is a sinner or a person who can become a backbone worker again, she respects her will. Understand that it can be a difficult outcome for the opponent, and still try to make them choose. As a royalty who should hear the voice of the people, I think it is a great quality, but I feel deeply emotional when I think that it has been eight years since then. I was definitely dealing with a criminal again.
With all the question marks on her face, Vest laughed frightened this time, chiseling between her brows.
I'm sure this time, too, she'll understand that she's going to take full responsibility for Thomas's choices.
Just like the old courier who saved the prince of the Anemone Kingdom in the recapture battle and helped reclaim his pride.
Then there's nothing more to tell from Vest.
"Very well. If you're prepared for that, I'll do the same." Ask Jill Vale to get ready to go out as Jeanne right away. "
"Eh... ah, from now on!?"
The voice of pride turns to the sudden agreement without any doubts being cleared up.
Meanwhile, after drinking the remaining bite in front of her, Vest got up from the sofa with a polite movement. Wash your clothes as if you are stretching the wrinkles, pressing your hair tightly and adjusting your taste to the details.
“Gilbert helped me with my work today, before I could ask you a favor. Thanks to you, I have a vacancy now. Is there a problem?"
No, not at all.
In the absence of anything, during the princess's solemn business, he is the most free position in the current royal family. If Ningli West only had free time today, there was no reason not to match it.
Speaking of which, in order to get a place to negotiate with Pride just now, the assistant to Albert, the king's counterpart, quickly proceeded from the Chancellor's business. He even assisted Vest's work before Steyl returned with the reason that "I was free." But thanks to you, I had the time to speak of pride, which is unusual for Vest.
Rather like much work going on, Vest himself once again realized the horror of Gilbert. If he is serious, I seriously think that he will be able to take on the job of Prime Minister, but also the job of King's Regent or King's Regent.
Later, I looked down at my niece, who was still sitting, telling her to properly thank Jill Vale.
"This is a secret for Steil and Tiara. Take only the Guardian Knight you are holding with you and bring the student's change of clothes with you. After an hour, go to Jilveer's Mansion. Me and Jill Vale will be waiting for you at the Mansion first."
"I-I 'm scared..."
The voice of pride didn't have the strength to keep up with the sudden unfolding.
Lightly embarrassed by the pride that stood up with the majesty of the previous face dumbfounded as a lie, "Be a little more conscious." In response to the scolding from Vest, his pride attitude was switched on, and his consciousness passed to his toes.
As if in front of a mirror, the niece straightened her posture, and Vest placed her hand on her shoulder and gently urged her towards the door. She moves to the shadow of the door again so that her bodyguard doesn't see her either.
The pride of opening the door while feeling the warmth of my uncle's beaten shoulder suddenly subsided just before he grabbed the door knob.
"Um, uncle."
Because the door was close, Vest whispered back to the pride she was calling out. When I answered with only my eyes turned, Pride asked the question that came to his mind while slightly twitching his mouth.
"... by the way, have you ever used that ability on me before?"
“Now, if only I could erase the memory of each question.”
Excuse me, but this time, the door opened in a hurry, as the pride shouted out in a voice that lurched immediately after the excuse.
The guards, including Gilbert, greet the pride that suddenly comes out of the door in a panic. Gilbert frowned worriedly in front of the impatient face and dripping cold sweat of the princess. Pride closed the door behind him, reflecting that he had inadvertently left the room. Gachan laughs at them after sealing them so they can't check the inside of the room.
"It's okay... I'm going to head back to my room now because I'm going to be getting ready to go out urgently." Thank you very much, Chancellor Gilbert. ”
The fact that we were negotiating was enough to convey to Gilbert the words of pride that we could not speak in this room.
Above all, Gilbert, smiling in relief, lowered his head to the princess in front of him. When I thought that I had won the negotiation with Vest safely, I wanted to say a word of compliment here, saying, "Rock is like pride," but now I just smile.
Just like that, I took the Kingsguard and Kingsguard to the room and dropped off the princess. Then I knocked and opened the door again.
"Well then, I will guide you to my mansion." The Regent of the West. "
Leaving aside the waste, Vest returned a word to Gilbert to see what steps he had to take and stepped out of the room. There are only two guards who have followed their guard outside the room.
Lining up with Gilbert, who was working hard, he quickly headed for the carriage. If the pride has already been negotiated, the plan is also discussed with Gilbert.
Rosa, the queen, and Albert, the king's ally, have given permission and secret assistance, and his next move is decided.
"I'm sorry, Jillvale. All of a sudden, I'm renting your mansion."
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Unlike Vest, who lives in the castle, Gilbert's mansion is under the castle. To hide his identity and identity, Vest knew his Mansion best.
As soon as I got into the carriage, which was already ready, Gilbert followed. The two guards in front of the door were accompanied by an escort, and the carriage ran slowly alone.
"Despite your busy schedule, I would like to thank you for making time so quickly."
"You must be the one who made the time, Jilbert."
Westerst exhaled with his arms crossed as he acted toughly and humbly.
Speaking of which, he also recalls that until a few years ago there was a time when it was as rough as now. Although I don't know the exact circumstances of Vest, I have known that Maria, the current wife in the corner of the king's house, had been raising him for six years.
At one point, he was just throbbing his eyes with pride, but now he admires pride completely because of his wife's recovery. Vest cannot conclude whether it is simply a result of loosening his mind, or whether he also obtained an "option" without his knowledge.
A queen who does not abandon her people as one, but does his best for them.
I think it is undoubtedly a virtue and a figure of the king sought.
But it's also her strength, and it can be a weakness or a flaw at the same time. Yes, Vest calmly analyzes it.
Speaking of ideals, there is no doubt. However, she may one day jump into the abyss trying to reach out to all of them.
That is why she and those who choose her side now shall need more power than ever.
"Before we head to the Mansion, let's stop by the clothing store." Is it okay if it belongs to the capital of the king? "
"I'll leave it to you. Make it as discreet as possible."
It is not [kindness] but [strength] that can fulfill ideals.
How much will she or those around her continue to focus on fulfilling her dreams? Now, while staring at the prime minister smiling in front of him, who said, "I understand," West quietly thinks so.
I understand that one day I will become one of those [forces].
