by adminEpisode 213 – Princess, Ariana Crowfield 26 –
There was a person standing in front of us.
Her name is Tyrael Crowfield.
Former Duchess of the Duke of Crowfield.
A being that is currently dead and has become a ghost.
Duchess of Crowfield, Tyrael Crowfield.
She made a limited appearance on this earth.
Although it is a corpse with only bones. I held onto my soul through him.
With the black magic I sacrificed in exchange for my aura, I was able to implement basic communication organs and various movements.
Although he was implemented transparently, he was just a human being whose bones were visible on the outside.
When I saw the structure using black magic, I found it quite bizarre.
Of course, that thought quickly faded away.
It was because now I had to share the proper story with her.
-Royal family… ? No, before that… I would have died, but how?
Before we could speak, her mouth opened first.
He clearly recognized that this land was not the afterlife, but this world.
I died once, but I never experienced the afterlife, so I had a lot of questions.
At least I said it after learning that the environment was quite different.
“Did you recognize him as a member of the royal family? nice to meet you. Former duchess. We called you out.”
-How on earth… ! This is possible… ?
“You can say that technology has developed over the years. Would it be okay to say that the Evil God Church was completely destroyed and the information that was there was found?”
-The Evil God Church… Completely broken down? Those who were just operating secretly fell under the pressure of the Seonghwangcheong government… How did you know?
ah. This person, Seonghwangcheong, died before he could challenge the demonic realm of work.
Then you might not know.
It’s too tedious to explain in detail, so let’s just skip it.
“There are some complicated circumstances, so let’s skip it. We’ll tell you what we want. There is a reason for everything being called out, so it can be done, right?”
She was a noblewoman who handled political affairs and fully understood this.
A transaction between the living and the dead that has no need to save face anyway.
In a relationship where we would never meet again, there was no longer any need for ostentation.
I went straight to the point.
“The family you belonged to, Crowfield. You are the second-in-command who acts on behalf of the Duke in his absence. The duke often leaves the mansion for work. I’m sure you’ve actually represented the duke many times.”
This is not strange.
I’m just stating common sense.
Nevertheless, this is why I repeated this.
That was to prevent this person from denying it.
-… You’re going to ask me about my family’s secrets.
The Duchess is not an idiot.
Eugenics is wrong though. It is true that smart parents are more likely to have smart children.
Tyrael, the woman chosen by the duke, was at least not a stupid person.
“Correct answer. Anyway, you no longer belong to this earth. There are no more obligations. In the afterlife, you can’t take anything you had in this world with you. A truly equal world.
So there is no need to be classy anymore. So, how about you talk to me? What is the deepest secret you hold?”
You cannot take anything from this world with you to the afterlife.
I don’t even know what the afterlife is like.
I only realized that it exists through the reincarnation of the soul.
-… okay. It might be considered that way.
She said she understood.
The royal family I recognized at once.
And himself, who called me to tell a secret.
You would have figured it out right away.
What are we aiming for?
“Your daughter was abused by her father. Dignity and all, but it doesn’t mean much because if you go up there, someone won’t have been abused.
If only abuse calls for dignity, your beginnings would not have been abused, so you are undignified beings. If abuse and dignity have nothing to do with each other, then the duke is a wicked person who hurt your daughter with his useless actions.”
This is a fact without any lies.
Dignity and abuse have little to do with each other.
When you are very young and cannot understand cause-and-effect relationships, it is not about making you understand. Corporal punishment can be effective, but it can be effective.
A gifted child like Ariana who was astute at a young age doesn’t have to.
In the first place, when they are that young, they are scared and scared even if you just scold them rather than corporal punishment.
-Unfortunately… I refuse.
But the former duchess’s stand was clear.
She had no intention of giving us any information.
The reason was quite predictable.
Because in the first place, it had to depend on the personality of the individual.
“Why? I guess you didn’t like the duke very much?”
However, in order to attack, you need to know the target.
Like I didn’t expect at all. I looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Then she answered.
Fortunately, it was the answer I expected.
-… In the end, my daughter will become the owner of this family. He considered political strife to be undignified and went so far as to treat another child as expendable.
That child will be fine too. They would consider it unbecoming to not take care of their family members, so they would let them get along without assassinating them. Ariana, after all. This will be resolved once the child becomes the head of the family.
“And the abuse by Ariana will happen again.”
-The current duke and my husband were the same. ah. Are you still a duke? Because it feels like quite a bit of time has passed.
Her remarks made me feel how much time had passed.
From our perspective, we could tell the time that had passed since she died.
From her perspective, there was no way to know what day it was.
Information gap.
Now that we know it exists, victory or defeat falls upon us.
“Good. I didn’t expect you to come out like that. Anyway, there are many ways.”
-What kind of threat do you think would work on someone who is in crisis enough to break the taboo of calling me out? Even I am already dead. No threats will work for me.
That is correct.
No threats will work.
But… Threats are not yours to make.
Make it something that is relevant to you.
“Haha… But, ma’am… You made a mistake.”
There is no longer any need for postponement.
Now is the time to reveal your true self.
I open my eyes.
I looked at her face with an expression full of joy.
She had a questioning look for a moment.
Eventually, he returned to his calm expression.
At this point in time, the atmosphere has changed.
“To avoid being threatened… ”
Target the opponent’s weakest weakness.
“I shouldn’t have said something that made me think of my daughter. We’re not stupid. E?”
Threat.
A statement that I can’t do it for you, but I can do it for your daughter.
At the end of the remarks, she came to one conclusion.
-Are you threatening to kill my daughter?
No matter what I said, she understood it that way.
You will be able to fully predict what kind of mischief she will do.
Whether it’s Donggwi Yeojin.
Whether it’s obvious poisoning.
If you were a member of the royal family, you would end your political life and attack someone.
It can kill any human being except members of the same royal family.
So she will think that I said this.
[Isn’t it better to live in misery than to die?]
We smiled kindly as if we were positive about that guess.
Tyrael Crowfield closed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then answered.
-then… Kill me.
Words that are considered unlikely to ever come out.
Those words came out of her mouth.
Parents giving up on their children.
Even though it has nothing to do with you.
If a third party had seen it, it would have been a scene of embarrassment.
This would not have been much different for Tyrael, the person involved.
So they would have expected that reaction from us as well.
But unfortunately.
Me and Alice.
The expressions of the two people did not change.
Clap, clap, clap.
Rather, I applauded her for showing such courage.
That was her own retort that she could make.
It was also a struggle.
It is revealed in her noble expression.
What kind of person are you?
He shows through all kinds of non-verbal signals that he will not sacrifice his daughter no matter what he proposes.
Sigh-
and… I laughed at her words.
He literally laughed with a mean smile.
When she saw me, she seemed to realize something was wrong.
He looked at me with a puzzled expression.
Her anxiety was real.
I had no intention of killing Ariana.
The reason was really simple.
“Why do you think I will kill her?”
This is truly ironic.
I have no intention of killing her.
What I will grant her.
That’s it…
“■■.”
Those words resonate.
The air around me froze.
A sense of despair washed over her that what she had thought was correct.
It was already a land filled with death.
Only one person on this earth said the opposite of death.
[The princess. Let me ask you one question. Did I say this? Death is not painful. It’s just that the process of getting there is painful.]
The day I spoke to Alice to persuade her.
I had a hypothesis.
It’s not for nothing that we talk about euthanasia in modern society.
Rather than continuing to live in pain.
Because it might be better to die cleanly.
[I see. That made sense. I was able to sympathize with you even more because you actually experienced death.]
Yes.
I have been through.
So I could tell. Then I asked her.
[Then let me ask you just one question. If a person has already experienced death and reached the afterlife, what would he most not wish for in this life? And what if it’s someone he loves?]
Why is death a tragedy?
This is because you can never meet a lion again in your lifetime.
And the same goes for dead people.
The dead can never meet the living.
How the lion meets the living.
After the living person becomes a lion.
So I can know.
Something a being who knows that death is painless would never wish on a loved one.
That’s it…
“Eternal life.”
From Tyrael Crowfield’s point of view, this should never have happened.
We told it to Tyrael.
And before long…
Her face was colored with despair.
