No. 281
A few days later.
As I was wiping the back of Leah's hand with a wet towel, I glanced at the chairman.
“The Pope asked the emperor to stop Mina's custody?”
"That's right."
I groaned and put the towel down.
“For what reason?”
“The day after day, the lunar eclipse performs a proof ceremony.”
The chairman who said so handed me the parchment. It was apparent that a copy of the Pope's letter to the emperor was obtained from Amzo (Dubbleed's intelligence agency).
After reading the content, I laughed in vain.
So, in summary, it is like this.
[There is only one child of fate that the trust has come down to.]
The reason why this land has become confused is that the wrong child is referring to the messenger of the gods.
One of the children of the two's destiny is not a real messenger of the gods, so the power of the gods must sort out the real thing from the most powerful lunar eclipse.]
“If Mina is a real child of destiny, she cannot be punished because she is an irreplaceable person with or without sin.”
"Yes. That's how I want to go over the Meteor case.”
“I could completely push me out of this opportunity. But how are you going to sort it out?”
“In the lunar eclipse ritual, the angel is summoned by revealing the pattern of the gods.”
I folded my arms and twisted my mouth.
“What is an angel. It must be a devil.”
The only beings in this world are those who were pioneers in ancient times.
All of them have become demons, and people have mistaken the relatively good ones of demons as angels.
So in the first place, there are no angels in this world.
“So, who is the angel, no, the devil that you want to summon?”
“I will try to call an angel that the entire continent knows.”
"If so……"
"Yes."
We said at the same time.
“Aslan.”
“This is Aslan.”
Aslan, an angel recorded in the founding period of the empire.
It was an angel with a legend that the Founding Emperor saved 100,000 imperial troops who were dying by advent when defeated in the battle with Ivan and withdrew.
“Aslan…… What kind of devil's tinnitus is Aslan?”
“Among the demons who have the power of healing, there is only one who has such power.”
“Yes, it's Gremory. It must have been secured a passage for Gremory in the Temple.”
Gremory. Gremory...…
Many times muttering the devil's name, I looked at Leah.
"That passage, can we get it?"
As I stared at Leah mindlessly, the chairman looked slightly.
“It's not that you don't understand her heart. Even if you find Benedict, you may be able to create an antidote, and you will be impatient because the time will be late. But girl...…"
“……"
“It's difficult unless you hit the Temple and win the pope's neck.”
“……”
“The current situation is on our side. If you are greedy for something you can't accomplish, there will be cracks from there.”
The chairman was rarely able to hide his anxious expression.
After Leah did this, I made a thorough plan and moved, but the line was completely lost.
No one in Dubbleed blamed me. It wasn't because of the family tendencies, but because everyone knew what Leah was like to me.
The chairman must be concerned that I will focus on Leah at all times and misrepresent my family and my life.
"Baby-"
"I know."
“……”
“I don’t know that much.”
As I laughed lightly, the chairman showed a faint smile at his mouth, as if he had been relieved.
“How about Leah?”
“My Leah is always cool! Even now, they are holding up nicely. Taylor said the necrosis was slower than expected.”
The chairman laughed as I pretended to be ahem.
“This is it. Is it the patient's will?”
"Yes, Your lady. Leah is always great.”
I picked up a wet towel again and gently wiped Leah's face.
Just as a young Leah washed a kinky child, with all her heart.
[How can you be so quiet?]
[Levu, it's Chaka!]
[Of course. My lady is the sweetest in the world.]
I remember the touch that embraced me tenderly. When I was tickled and laughed, Leah whispered, rubbing her face on my cheek.
I am her treasure.
The sunlight from outside the window tickled Leah's lashes. I laughed like a child of those days.
* * *
Cecilia followed up with the pope and the emperor who was moving after solitude.
“What happened. Didn't she allow the ceremony to prove?”
“……”
"Sire!"
She said with anxiety.
“It is something even a passing dog knows that the Temple supports the second. They're not trying to identify the real destiny child. He wants to control the empire by seating a person who suits his taste as a child of fate…!”
“I think Jim doesn’t know him.”
“Aren’t you clear?”
The emperor stopped walking and stared at Cecilia with her stiff face.
“Are you the mother-in-law of the Empire or Dubbleed?”
"Yes?"
"Is it right for Jim's rain?"
“…… The Empire would not have achieved this revival without Dubbled.”
“That's the problem-!”
The Emperor cried out and looked around and lowered his voice.
“That's the problem.”
“Are you concerned that Dubbleed's influence flooded the Imperial Palace? Are you afraid to lose the emperor's authority?”
Cecilia's brow was wrinkled. The emperor's gaze grew colder as she watched him not back down.
“My people are struggling with the war between the shrine and Dubbleed.”
“……”
“Jim, while you have been full and sleepless in this palace, the people are sick and ill.”
“……”
“How can I not pay attention to Dubbled? But not Jim. Jim and Rain are the ones who are responsible for protecting the people and serving as brothers.”
“……”
“Make your position clear. If you're going to remain as Dubbleed's old knight, not as a mother-in-law, I, the man, will catch you, but Jim the Emperor will see the rain off.
As the Emperor began walking again with a cool expression, Cecilia opened her mouth again.
“The Remple threatened Your Majesty.”
The Emperor whispered and turned his head.
“You……!”
Cecilia snapped his Emperor's collar and pulled it roughly.
“What is it? What threat did you put on the wall?”
“……”
"Sire."
It was then.
"Sire."
From the opposite side, Empress Yvonne approached with a smile.
She said, “I've been concerned because he didn't eat, but…… You seem to be in the wrong time.”
“No. Branch."
The Emperor left Cecilia behind and took his step with Empress Yvonne.
Tree, who had been lingering in the distance, approached Cecilia, looking at the Emperor's back.
"Aunt……”
“……”
Tree carefully grabbed her aunt's fingertips.
“I know.”
“I'm not here today because I'm an old Dubbled knight……”
“Yes, I know she came as Your Majesty's wife.”
“……”
Tree laughed forcibly and stroked Cecilia's hand with her hands.
“She knows Your Majesty wanted you not to regret today. I also know that he wants to not be more lonely.”
“……”
“Is it because of “That Thing”? That thing LeBlaine doesn't know...…”
Cecilia grinned as she stroked the cheek of her niece, Tree. And she whispered, looking around.
“She wants to tell LeBlaine through Emulyn. You shouldn't be in direct contact with Dubbleed.”
"Yes."
“Also tell us that Your Majesty has allowed the lunar eclipse ritual, and that when the second summons an angel, things are out of control. You should never let them summon an “Angel”.”
Tree, nodding her head, ran in a hurry.
Cecilia, looking at her niece's back, covered her face with one hand.
'Please lady.'
Save his Majesty.
Your Majesty...… Please him who is holding on to his alone.
The next day, Mina was released.
The lunar eclipse ceremony two days later, at night.
The eyes of the world were all concentrated on the altar where rituals were to take place.
* * *
Lunar eclipse ritual night.
Dubbleed was very quiet. Like before the typhoon.
When I was ready to go out, I put the etwal around my neck. Dahlia, Linda, and Yuni put on my shoulders a cape engraved with a Dubbled pattern.
It was the cloak that Leah had wrapped around me when I was painting my portrait for Gongji Castle a few years ago.
"I thought it wouldn't fit because it was so big now."
As I laughed, Dahlia, Linda and Yuni laughed. Their hands are full of band-aids. It seemed to have been repaired all night.
“If Leah-sama had awakened, I would have put on this cloak today.”
"Huh."
“Come back, lady. Please come home safely.”
"Okay."
Putting on my cloak, I left the mansion.
Dad and brothers were standing in front of the carriage. We looked at each other once and got into the wagon without a word.
The carriage ran quietly. Towards the altar.
People were crowded in front of the altar, which arrived in exceptionally deep darkness.
Theobles and people covered the altar, and above the altar was Mina in an undecorated white dress.
Like I was in the first life.
When the Pope raised his hand, a flag fluttered over the castle near the altar.
And the moon shadow began to thicken little by little.
Mina slowly lifted Etwal.
Etwal vibrated thinly.
So, not the etwal in Mina's hand, but Mina's real etwal in my arms.
