‘It’s warm…’

Her cheeks, which feel softer beyond the [black silk gloves], feel even more lovely.

I also love these golden eyes that only look at me.

A sudden thought comes into my mind that I could be held in the warm arms of a person like this at any time.

Honestly, I realized again today that the fact that I can rely on someone other than my family is so dependable and supportive.

＇Dahuinnim..＇

Se-in, who was suddenly embraced by Da-heein’s active comfort, does not avoid him but welcomes him warmly.

Come on…

“No matter what hardships there are, I think I can endure them as long as I’m by Dahin’s side.”

Sein had never shown such pampering to anyone in his life.

For some reason, if I were to be next to Dahyun… I keep saying these unfamiliar expressions.

It was clear that Sein was convinced that Dahuin had become a special person.

Unlike Da-hin’s expression, Se-in’s expression, which was gradually darkening in his arms… looked very lonely and lonely.

‘If I’m with Dahyun…’

‘No matter how hard it is.’

All the truth that came up to the tip of my neck…

Sein clearly wanted to tell everything and speak in a clear manner.

But she doesn’t speak anymore, she just stays silent and quietly feels his warmth.

‘Seinnim..’

I feel that Sein’s condition has definitely changed somehow since the Winter Festival.

‘I’ll tell you someday..’

As lovers, waiting is also consideration for each other.

I decide to wait until one day she can tell me her concerns in person.

Until the moment her true feelings reach me…

***

I was able to arrive at the dormitory safely thanks to Sein’s sending off, and I watched her back as she turned around through the gap in the closing door.

A part of the dark blue magic that looks a little darker…

I guessed that it was definitely the same as Bernim’s magic power.

I currently have no way of knowing if Sein is trying to hide that fact…

I just trust her and do the best I can for our current situation.

***

Hot bath water passes through a water pipe heated by a [multi-purpose magic light] to soak your cold body.

My fingertips and toes feel numb, as if the dizzying cold is immediately melting away.

Grumbling..

The hot waves gradually flow down along with the dust along the entire body, which was full of scars.

Wounds that are gradually healing and dark scars from the past…

Since I didn’t care about these scars, I quickly wiped them off and finished my bath.

＂Whew.. I feel refreshed.＂

The cold outside the window met the warmth inside, forming nodules of frost.

[Polycarbo Ore], which was filled with moonlight by the window, gave off a soft blue light even without turning on the [Magic Light], lighting up the dark room like a light.

Ssss..

With the soft blue light as my friend, I quickly get into bed and take out the small wooden box that was inside the [Subspace Ring].

Soft…

A small wooden box with the pattern of {Alyseum Kingdom} slowly emerging from a profound space that seems to split the sky.

“Because I received it..”

“I guess I should open it and take a look, right?”

What on earth did you want to convey that made you want to hand over something in a box that opens in response to magical power?

Half in anticipation and half in doubt, I decide to open this.

Rattling..

A box with a chunkier texture than expected and a weight so heavy that you can’t tell what’s inside.

Through the [Slime] magic stones implanted in both arms, I injected more powerful “nothing” attribute magic and began to deliver it to the wooden box, starting with both arms.

Let’s go!!

＂W-what..＂

＂It won’t open?＂

Except for the fact that there is a small gap in the wooden box, it looks virtually unchanged.

＇It’s not enough, right?＇

Recognizing that it was a {magic tool} that required a large amount of magical energy to be opened, I instantly poured out the “nothingness” attribute magical energy that had been fully charged in both arms.

When you can vividly feel the magical power flowing more clearly through your veins…

Bye!

Pusss..

The small wooden box, which immediately absorbed a huge amount of magical power, completely lost its original appearance and was scattered into pieces.

Tuk..!

A gold ring and a letter were revealed, falling pitifully between them.

The wooden box, which had absorbed more than half of the magical power accumulated in both arms, lost its shape as if it had been made to never be used again once opened, and soon turned into dust and completely disappeared.

“A ring and a letter?”

When I saw a letter and a gold ring with the symbol of {Alyseum Kingdom} engraved on it, my hand naturally went towards the letter, and I slowly opened it and read it step by step.

「Diendeluka.. Anyone with that last name must be the child of Director Dincia..

It seems like you, like her, have grown up to be a great person who always knows how to take risks for others.

Although it is regrettable that we were not able to meet, I would like to express my gratitude to you for showing me the quality of a true knight.

Although it is a small sincerity compared to the countless people you have protected, I am leaving a [Token of Royal Faith] in the hope that you will accept it.

It was an achievement that would not have been surprising if you were originally given a title, but it was an unavoidable choice due to Gerlin’s request that he not want to reveal your identity.

The ring will not only provide a means of easy movement to any area you are heading to, but will also clearly indicate your identity.

I’m sure there will be a time when you will need it…

D&Deluka… Although it’s not a situation where I can tell you everything, I hope you remember this.

If the third princess is in danger… I want you to help me.

A letter expressing gratitude is like asking for a favor… I feel sorry for the incompetent king. 」

Fass..

The old letter, which seemed to have been handwritten, gradually split apart and completely disappeared, like a small wooden box that had disappeared a while ago.

As you can guess from the contents of the letter, I was able to roughly understand that a major problem had arisen in the internal affairs of {Alysseum Kingdom}, but it was not at a level where I could step in and solve it myself, so I gave this [Token of Royal Faith] to the [Subspace Ring] ] Fold it inside.

＇Please take care of the third princess?＇

The king made a request by comparing himself to Dian Deluca, as if he knew his mother, Dincia.

＇What happens?＇

Even though I kept thinking that it was no big deal, the fact that the king of {Alyseum Kingdom} made such a earnest request by destroying all evidence was an act no different from trusting me with the last name of Diendeluka.

To be honest, I didn’t deserve to be put in this situation where I was asked to be the third princess at the request of a king I had never met in my life.

Judging by the King’s desperate handwriting, which is not a request to obey the King’s orders… but a polite request…

It was also a signal that the internal affairs of {Alysseum Kingdom} had already reached its peak.

But even so, the clues I can currently find are very limited.

Considering that it only said that he was asking for the third princess, it seemed inevitable that that day would come someday.

“What do you want to ask me for?”

I sensed that I was in a situation where I should not intervene, but since I had already been forced to accept the king’s request, I had to prepare in my own way.

“under..”

A deep sigh of worry spreads throughout the room.

＇This token. You’ll need it someday.?’

Feeling that her head is hurting as she tries to keep thinking about something she cannot understand, Dahyun quietly closes her eyes and waits for the drowsiness that is slowly coming on her to fall asleep.

For some reason, I feel tired all of a sudden…

Even though I thought it was because of what I experienced today…

I tried to hold on to my slowly losing consciousness, but before I knew it, I fell into a complete sleep and had a strange dream.

***

A pure white space where there is nothing but you can’t feel anything.

＇Where am I?＇

I was left alone, unable to even question why I was in a place like this, and looked intently at the huge dark blue fog that was vaguely approaching.

Smul.. Smul..

It seemed like a natural disaster that could never be avoided.

＇This blue-black magical power… I’ve definitely felt it before.’

I felt like I knew the feeling of that dark blue fog.

It soon decided to gently put its hand into the fog that was right in front of it and go inside.

It’s not the ominous and repulsive magical power that I felt when I faced [Lil Gom] in the past…

It was a foreign, ominous magical power that made me feel like I was missing something, so I didn’t feel that much of a burden.

All of this just came naturally.

The pure white space that had been bright just a moment ago was suddenly transformed into a space of dark blue fog, and I was filled with a hazy feeling that made my whole body feel drowsy.

‘crying sound?’
