To Be a Power in the Shadows!
Princess's Mob Friend
I was taken indoors somewhere and put to bed. [M]
Cold hands touching my nose in the cold of winter. [M]
I woke up with that feeling. I pretended.
"Huh... is this...?
Open your eyes and let your gaze get lost.
That was one of the rooms in the camp. The building of the room was the same as Zach's, but I don't see anything clean or entertaining. Only the minimum required was placed.
There's Clara by the bed, and there's a guy in front of the door to the room staring at me.
"Good, you noticed. You'd better not move your head yet."
"Are you sure..."
"Speaking of which, you didn't name it. I'm Clara Oriana, I know you already."
"I'm Sid Cagheno. Well, it looks like you got me a hand, thank you..."
I subtly tremble my voice and give a royal freak. [M]
"Never mind. Our fight originally began."
"But..."
That's when the man who was staring at me in front of the door pounded his tongue.
"Dear Clara, that will be enough. A man with no identity should be expelled immediately."
"GUIN... but he hit him in the head. Don't move yet."
"It could be an act to get closer to you. Besides, we should have the audacity. I don't have time for this kind of guy. Different?
The man called Gwen looks at me with an indiscreet gaze.
"Even if we have the grandeur, it won't be a good reason to abandon those who are hurt in front of us."
"But..."
"Refrain, Gynn. He doesn't know anything. He's just a boy. Doesn't look like he did anything wrong to me. Isn't that right?
He throws his gaze at me like Clara asks.
"Yes. I stumbled onto an owl raid site, so I was suspected..."
"Can you save the country without being able to help every boy in front of you?
Clara grabbed my hand softly.
"- Okay. I'll keep an eye on you outside."
That's what Gynn said, and he left the room.
Shortly before closing the door, he glanced again. If I wasn't mistaken, that gaze seemed to stare at Clara as well as me.
The door closes and Clara exhales.
"I'm sorry. He's not a bad person either..."
"No, that's okay."
"We're all desperate and anxious. Even I... The truth is, I wasn't supposed to be in this position..."
Clara lay down her face.
"The..."
"Never mind. That was none of your business. Hey, you're not from this country."
"Yes. I am a student at the School of Demon Swordsmen of the Kingdom of Midgal......"
"- What, from the Demon Swordsman's School? Hey, do you know anything about your sister?
Clara climbs out and peeks into me.
"Uh, if you're Senior Rose, I know. We've talked about it."
"Yes. Did your sister ever stab your father?
"... Yes. I was watching it in the arena."
"Surely your sister stabbed your father...?
"Yes, that was Senior Rose"
"Yes..."
Clara dropped her shoulder and leaned down again.
"I know my father has been going crazy and my sister has been exploring it. But how did this happen... They all say your sister is the great sinner who broke the country. Even I didn't want to believe..."
I got lost and sighed a little. [M]
And I decided to say whatever I wanted. [M]
"It looked like she had some reason. I don't know why I need to do that, and I don't know if you'll be convinced when I know why, but she seemed ready."
"Ready... you looked that way. Hehe, thanks, for the consolation. You know, I've always loved my sister, who could do anything, and I've always admired her. So even after all this has happened, I still want to believe..."
Clara shook her head and smiled as if to change her mind.
"You've been watching your sister a lot."
"Uh, actually, I fought Senior Rose at the Busin Festival selection competition."
"It was! So, how'd it go?
"I lost without being able to do anything"
"You seem weak."
Clara laughed like a prank.
"Can I call you Sid? I'm fine with Clara."
"Uh..."
"You don't have to worry about anything. Because I'm just a sinner now."
"Uh, well... hmm. Then only when no one else is around."
"Well, if Gynn hears about it, it looks like a May fly. Hey, let me hear more about your sister at school."
That's why I've been talking to Senior Rose about school for a long time.
It's slightly off the mob-like position, but it's okay, it's still fixable. I am Senior Rose's Mob friend and I am going to be just a Mob that I talked to Clara about in the process.
