by fnovelpiaAfter Raoul collapsed in an argument with Rosie, Kyle broke the club and attempted to kill Rosie by stabbing her with the sharp shard. If Lisel and the Empress had not stopped him, Rosie would have died from a hole in his brain.
If it weren’t for the empress who was well-versed in medicine, Raoul would have died on the spot, and if Ratri hadn’t hurriedly brought the royal physician, the situation would have become much more serious.
“I wondered what was going on when someone who was napping was suddenly dragged in… The situation is not good. It’s due to a sudden increase in blood pressure and heart rate…”
“How to shut up and save yourself.”
“I was able to recover to some extent because the body’s physical abilities were so monstrous that I was able to live and sleep. Well… as I said several times, it would be impossible to completely resolve the symptoms. ”
The attending physician had also been through a lot as a military doctor in the war. So he tried several times to save Raul, but all his efforts were in vain.
But he was also someone who knew Raul’s body very well.
“Raoul Bergé. How about writing a diary soon?”
“… It would be a waste of time. After all. And I have no talent for writing, so writing a diary that will only become a laughing stock later on…”
“Metaphor, you human. From the beginning, you…”
The two people quickly looked at Lizel and Ratri’s complexions and then closed their mouths.
“How about you start talking slowly? I don’t want to clean up a body that died from a heart attack.”
“If you say the word corpse to my family again, I might kill you.”
“I hear the most that people kill people even though I’m working to save lives. If someone saw me, they’d think I was a hitman in a back alley.”
Kyle quickly examined Raoul’s complexion, then took Liesel out with his ferocious strength.
“Hey, can’t you let this go?”
“Don’t you know that the cry of the powerless is empty?”
“Who said that and when!”
“I did it 10 seconds ago.”
Kyle, who had dragged Lisel away by force, had to endure the scolding of a girl who had no fate while pinching her cheeks and ears.
To be honest, for a creature so fragile that it could be killed with just one touch, those hands strangely felt sharper than those of an average warrior.
“Why did you bring me up when I was talking about my brother! Don’t you know I’m sensitive about that kind of thing? If there’s another misunderstanding…!”
“No, you shouldn’t have done it in the first place.”
“Don’t you know that little things can lead to misunderstandings?”
“You were the one who didn’t know, damn it…”
Kyle, who had his hair grabbed, had no choice but to curse his fate and give in to Lizel’s stubbornness.
Since Raul had asked that his condition not be revealed, he had no intention of revealing it even if it meant dying.
Because it was a benefactor’s request.
This is the story of the person who saved me that day when I was almost beaten to death after stealing his wallet.
‘… Surprisingly, you have outstanding strength and tenacity. You have talent.’
‘So you’re selling them into slavery? Are the nobles in dire straits?’
‘It’s true that I’m not rich, but I’m not obsessed with small change. I can’t sell the gemstone for small change.’
‘what…?’
‘My previous adjutant was certainly honest and competent, but he had no talent for dodging arrows.’
‘No, but what are you talking about…’
‘It’s a pity. No matter how great you are, this is a world where you can’t do anything without being able to shoot arrows.’
‘No, explain it so that people can understand…!’
‘That’s basically the story. Follow me. I’ll teach you how to shoot arrows.’
‘Hey you son of a bitch!!!’
Kyle’s expression hardened as he recalled the details of that day.
“Should I just say it?”
How long has it been since I’ve struggled to understand Raul’s way of speaking? If I were to list them all, my mouth would hurt.
“What kind of person was my brother?”
“Didn’t I tell you? Even though he looks like a beggar, he’s trustworthy and strong, and surprisingly kind…”
“No.”
Lizel looked at Kyle with slightly more serious eyes, as if telling him not to deceive her.
“You never told me how my brother changed after Sister Leila died.”
“… Oh, you’re surprisingly quick-witted. I thought you’d be easy to fool since you’re just a simple idiot. ”
Kyle licked his lips as if it was a waste, and Lisel began to break Kyle’s neck.
Kyle continued his explanation seriously, obediently sticking his neck out.
“There won’t be much of a difference, but… I felt like he was gradually distancing himself from others. It’s not like he was pushing us away or anything… I should say he stopped letting new people into his heart…”
How can someone who has already experienced the sorrow of separation welcome a new relationship?
How could someone who has had their heart torn apart allow another person to touch it?
How can a new guest be welcomed into a heart that has become a ruin?
“But there is an exception…”
“That’s Rosie, right?”
“You know a lot.”
It was a well-known fact that Lizel regarded Logie as her mortal enemy.
The evil deeds committed against her older brother Raoul were also evil deeds, and above all, Rosie was the one who tarnished the honor of Arthur Bergé, Liesel’s father.
Later, a proper letter of apology arrived, but Lisel did not read it and burned it in front of Logi’s men who brought it.
“We were all surprised. Even though she was Leila’s younger sister, we wondered if it was really necessary to take care of her that much.”
Originally, a political marriage was a valuable card that could only be used a few times.
But Raoul gave that precious card to Youngae, who had nothing, simply because she was Leila’s younger sister.
“As you know, the aftermath was no joke. From rumors that they had a child together to conspiracy theories that they were trying to swallow Nevermore. Even though such rumors were clearly damaging to his reputation, Raoul willingly endured them.”
And Raoul used the power and authority he had to put Roger in the position of the head of the household.
But power is essentially a consumable. After expending so much power, Raoul accepted the criticism and scandals that followed without complaint.
Of course, Rogers crawled into the crowd of people who were cursing Raoul, as if he didn’t care about his devotion.
“You know me strangely well?”
“At that time, I teased Camilla with Her Majesty and got beaten up badly. I got beaten up by Her Majesty the Empress and Camilla for about three hours.”
Kyle testified that he saw his deceased grandfather waving from across the river that day, in a hazy state of mind.
“Why does that girl hate you even though you did all that for her? It’s weird…!”
“Isn’t that something a young lady should say?”
“… This hits the nail on the head.”
“Well, as you said, conflicts often stem from trivial things. Just as a small spark can set a field ablaze, even a small thing can cause catastrophe. What’s the point of trying to figure out what caused it?”
Kyle personally didn’t hate Rosie.
Knowing what it’s like to lose a family member, there was a small part of me that felt sorry.
But there’s a certain line to that, too. Kyle had no intention of defending what Rosie had done to Raoul.
I only slightly understood why it had come to that point.
“She’s a foolish woman. It’s not that she doesn’t understand the circumstances… No, maybe she thinks so even more because she understands the reason.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Well, to get to the point… It’s stupid to hurt the hand that was extended to me.”
Kyle smiled bitterly as he looked at the ring Leila had given him.
It was a shame. To be obsessed with something as trivial as a ring. The thing that Leila had sent to Rosie the most was Raoul.
How could it not be funny to see Raoul so cruelly throw her away and then become obsessed with a little ring like this?
“You said to give it to me if it seemed like I was becoming a little bit of a human being…”
Kyle smiled as he recalled what had happened today.
“Will that day ever come?”
“What’s that ring?”
“This is the ring that Leila used… It’s an all-purpose ring that can transform into the form of any weapon you want. It’s not just that it’s a weapon that’s difficult to use, because it’s a weapon that can be used to choose its owner, and you have to completely understand the weapon in order to transform it.”
Although it could theoretically be transformed into any weapon, due to various limitations, only Leila could actually maximize its performance to 100%.
Because in a battlefield where swords and spears are flying around, she’s probably the only one who can perfectly imagine the structure of all the weapons.
Also, if we are to consider skill in handling weapons, there is no one who handles the ring as perfectly as Leila.
“Then why can’t someone like your brother or your highness the empress use it?”
“I suggested that too, but they said it was like two-timing. They said the weapons would go out the window the moment you did it…”
“Anyway, if Sister Leila isn’t here, then it’s just a decoration, right?”
“Yeah, well, if all you can do is transform into a sword or a spear, then just carry a real sword or spear.”
The weapons of Raoul and his friends were each close to divine, but on the contrary, they were like toys that could not be properly handled by anyone below their level.
“Then what is the special characteristic of the staff that my brother handles?”
“Nothing special. It’s just incredibly strong. It’s strong enough to withstand the Demon King’s attacks. Even back in the old days, I tried to break it with all my might and my knees were shattered.”
And Kyle sighed as he thought of Raoul’s body contrasting with his unbreakable cane.
“The staff and defense are so strong that even a nobleman with such a twisted fate would not be able to live long because of the poison…”
“What did you just say?”
“Oh shit…”
