No. 283
Before the lunar eclipse ceremony, Emulyn came to see me. It was to convey her words to me at Tree's request.
She said [Empress Cecilia asked me to stop summoning Aslan?]
[Tree was also very desperate.]
[I don't want Shinjeon to use Mina to summon an angel, too...… Why is the Empress and Tree?]
[I asked why, but said I couldn't answer. Tree, there's something that stupid guy can't tell us. Can you believe it?]
[……]
[I just left a word. 'I can't do Aslan. Aslan...… The word ".".]
[Can I meet Tree?]
[Empress Cecilia was given a Geumjok decree, and after the day she met me, there seems to be a person attached to Tree as well. I also try to communicate only through Tree and the beggar kids.]
[Is the emperor's intention not to intervene in the battle between the shrine and Dubbleed...… . Anyway I get it. Tell Tree that it will be difficult to summon an angel or a demon due to Mina's physical strength. Even more powerful demons about Gremory.]
Cecilia and Tree lost her sister and mother, Beryl, by the shrine. Since she hates the Temple, it is natural that she does not want to summon an angel.
I thought so, but what if the target that shouldn't be summoned was not an angel but 'Aslan'?
I looked at the chairman.
“Why did the emperor permit the ceremony of proof?”
“Aren’t you trying to stop Dubbleed from being crowded?”
“I thought so too…… Wouldn't the Emperor have predicted that if I became a fake, Dubbleed could engage in an all-out war with the Temple to protect me?”
“As you might have predicted, isn't it that the existence of the “Child of Destiny” is so important? You are called the daughter God gave you for insemination.”
“The Emperor? Who doesn't have faith in religion as much as the dust?”
“Any Emperor would wish to be recorded that during his reign the daughter of a god came down and brought an angel down.”
I thought so too.
The current Emperor Alexandre is one of the five fingers of successive emperors by desire.
But what if...…
“What if the Temple threatened the Emperor?”
“No way. How many crises have there been in the shrine so far? Until then, you didn't use threats, but now? If I were, I would have used the threats on the enemy to be barred to have Dubbleed searched.”
“There are threats that can't be used easily.”
"Yes?"
"Devil."
The first significance of the temple is to protect this land from demons.
If the Imperial family was entangled with demons, the temple would never be able to reveal to the public.
'If there is a secret entangled with Aslan in the imperial family, the temple may know it.'
When it comes to data related to angels, demons, and gods, the temple holds the most.
“…… The Temple threatened the Emperor. Aslan's case.”
"Yes?"
I stared at the paper, narrowing my eyebrows.
“It could have been entangled with Empress Elsa.”
I hurriedly grabbed the coat over the chair.
"Where are you going!"
The chairman asked, and I shouted.
“If it's a relationship with Empress Elsa, Adrian would be the best known!”
* * *
I headed to the Imperial Palace. Although he did not get permission to enter the palace in advance, the title of orb given by the emperor helped. The status of the Quan Hwang tribe makes it possible to enter without permission.
But it was weird.
“I'm sorry. It is difficult for the 2nd Prince to understand because he is young.”
“You say you refuse without asking the prince?”
As soon as the attendant guarding Adrian's palace saw me, he restricted access.
“He commanded that no one take it in.”
“Please ask that Lady Dubbleed is here.”
“I'm sorry.”
I folded my arms with my eyes narrowed.
“How does your body hurt?”
“I can't tell you about the state of the Royal family.”
I sighed.
'I would have communicated.'
My heart was in a hurry, so I came from the Imperial Palace. I also thought that if it were Adrian, he wouldn't turn me down.
'Why did you think so. Fool.'
Isn't this too shameless thoughts on the subject that once rejected Adrian?
"I know. Please tell me that you wish for a good ride.”
Having said that, I walked back and said,
“Then, should I go to the Marquis of Chattele (family of Adrian's maternal grandfather)…?” And muttered.
It was then.
"Wait!"
The attendant shouted. As he turned his head, his face became slightly whiter, he said, swallowing dry saliva.
“I will ask the prince to speak.”
“…… Suddenly?"
“When I thought about it, I thought that Lady Dubbleed would be pleased with the prince.”
He murmured, as if trying to fix his words. Then he hurriedly ran into the palace.
I like meeting Adrian, so I stayed quiet, but it was weird.
'You say that as soon as the name of the Marquis of Chattele comes out?'
The beginning was soon returned.
“Come in.”
“……”
I entered the palace, staring at the beginning with a suspicious expression.
As he stood in front of the huge door, the attendant knocked on the door. Before long, the door opened and Adrian appeared in his chair.
He glanced at the attendant, and the attendant closed the door.
Only me and Adrian were left in the room.
"I'm here?"
He smiled and asked.
I was a little thin, maybe it was really sick. His jawline was sharper, and he was a little messy.
“Are you sick?”
When I asked, he nodded and gave me his chair.
"No."
“But you don’t even allow me to enter the room?”
“I was just tired.”
While I bite each other with the temple outside, Adrian must have also suffered a war inside the imperial palace.
The first Prince Andre and the second Prince Adrian were over twenty years old, but even the prince has not been decided yet.
Cecilia knew well how bloody the two camps were. I did more, never less than my fight with the temple.
“What did Empress Yvonne do?”
“It's not easy as long as Cecilia is there.”
“……”
“It’s yours, LeBlaine.”
I struck the hem of the chin.
'What should I say?'
Do you have your mother's secret? …… No.
You're being blackmailed because your father smells bad, right? …… Absolutely not.
You might be slammed if you did it to Emulin. Are you going to argue?
I turned my eyes round and round as I thought of the question I would like to turn around. Then I found a fountain pen on his desk. A mixture of brown and blue. It's a birthday present I gave to Adrian.
“Oh, that.”
"Fountain pen?"
I laughed and nodded.
'You have it well.'
I was thinking so, but Adrian grabbed the fountain pen.
“Shall I give it?”
“…… Huh?"
“If you want, you can take it with you.”
Adrian laughed softly.
'What?'
How do I take this?
Is it a high degree of finjan?
No matter how young you are, is it not a gift worth giving to the Prince?
Was it unpleasant to be pushed into the palace? So, are you telling me not to be special because of my childhood memories?
Does that mean our memories aren't precious now?
Are you pushing me out with an elegant speech technique used by nobles and royals, so in a way that speaks back?
As I was worried, I immediately laughed.
'Adrian? to me?'
He probably wouldn't tell me that if he had a knife in front of him.
There was such a belief.
To someone like me who doesn't believe in people, Adrian gave it to him for over 10 years.
"You’re giving me the gift that I gave you back?”
As I laughed and said, Adrian's hand with the fountain pen was strained.
He smiled and nodded his head.
“It was a joke.”
“It wasn't fun. I was really worried about what it meant.”
"Okay. It was an uninteresting joke.”
Adrian sat across from me on the road.
“Yes, I can’t give this one. …… Because this is mine.”
“……”
“The gift you gave me……”
At the moment, it was weird.
I narrowed my eyebrows and stared at Adrian.
“When did I give it to you?”
“…… Birthday."
“When and where.”
“……”
“Adrian!”
“Banshinyeon.”
The expression was completely hardened.
As I didn't open my mouth, Adrian laughed and said.
“I was happy.”
“…… Okay. I was happy, you. I was happy. Not like the one who got the cheap fountain pen in the shabby shop in the back alley.”
Adrian's expression also hardened. The hand that held the fountain pen swelled once again.
“What, you. Why can't you remember.”
“Because it was when I was younger.”
“But can’t you remember that the Prince escaped the castle and held a birthday party in the back alley?”
“……”
“You guessed it was a birthday present? Because the only anniversary between us that can give a present is a birthday. So, did you think you got it for your birthday, right?”
“……”
“Adrian, do you really know what's going on?”
I got up from my chair and approached Adrian. He looked closely, holding his face.
Adrian took my hand in my face and smiled.
“Nothing to worry about.”
"Lie."
"Really, just…… I just can't remember.”
You just don't remember?
In a moment, I remembered the conversation I had with God.
The reason people such as Boone, Pymon, and Purr do not remember me in ancient times is that it is because they have blood on their hands.
'The more the pioneers get blood on their hands, the more their memories disappear.'
The Emperor was threatened by the Temple.
An imperial secret that is clearly entangled with the devil.
Cecilia's message that Aslan should not be summoned.
Empress Elsa.
Adrian, who inherited her blood, lost his memory.
“…... Empress Elsa was Aslan.”
Adrian's eyes shook finely.
