Became the Escort Knight of the Villain in the Romance Novel - Chapter 109



109 – Iron Blood Rejects You (5)

“So, in the end, it turns out to be you.”

At the Emperor’s words, Evan shrugged her shoulders.

He wasn’t even on his knees like before, but the Emperor just shook his head without saying anything about him.

The total lunar eclipse was about three months away. If it’s close, you can say it’s close, but

Wouldn’t 3 months be enough time to reorganize the Imperial Palace Knights?

“Well… I don’t intend to move too hastily. Haven’t you heard good news lately? If you abuse the Master of the Empire, there will be a protest from Julis, so I’m really worried about that.”

“…No way.”

“Hmm, haven’t you heard about it yet? When you came back injured, the family head of Juris sent me a petition directly. I never imagined that the man would act like that. Doesn’t it look like he’s taking care of himself as his son-in-law?”

“……”

Evan lowered his head in shame.

I would have been embarrassed if Irene sent it, but I would have thought the duke would have sent it himself.

Besides, to hear it in front of the emperor.

The emperor laughed at Evan’s reaction, then sighed and leaned his head on his throne.

“Take care of Kaisel. He’s the guy who will soon take over this place, but there are so many things he lacks. If possible, she would like to pass on her calm vocal cords… But she might turn a blind eye to women and ruin the country.”

‘That’s true.’

At Scarlet Therazane’s words, the family called Euris was completely wiped out.

Perhaps after that, the Empire must have suffered quite a blow.

Anyway, it was Julis who became the shield of the empire from the alien peoples of the north.

In fact, even at the point of view of the original work, Yuris was still one of the five major families, although his power was reduced compared to before.

“That, Your Majesty.”

Evan cautiously opened his mouth.

It was a very slight possibility…But I was curious about how the emperor would react if it went like the original.

“If Therazane’s daughter and Her Highness the crown prince meet this time… What do you plan to do?”

“Sounds like it makes sense… No, Kaisel. She’s weird, because if she’s a girl, she’s a goofball. Lately, I’ve been a little anxious about playing the noble and pure love. I hope…If that woman and her eyes meet…”

The emperor, who had been pondering for a moment while resting his chin on his chin, then frowned and looked at his empty space.

Isn’t it all the more unpleasant because it’s a realistic situation?

If her only son of her own met her eyes with that woman from Terra Jane, it would be a troublesome situation.

Kaisel might object to her investigation into Terra Jane, and she did, so what else did she do to tell her to break up.

After thinking for a while, the emperor smiled and opened his mouth.

“I feel dizzy. I think that’s the worst.”

“I think so too.”

“Well…You seem to be somewhat certain that that will happen. Please don’t let that happen. I’d rather live with several women, but she can’t be that woman.”

The emperor emphasized the words again.

“She is not that woman.”

As soon as Irene got out of her bed, she frowned.

Something that I thought was Evan and hugged was a blanket, but

It was because she had been told by her maid that her Evan would be with the Emperor for a long time.

I knew that I had come to see the emperor…But it was not unusual to be annoyed when it happened.

“Hmm…”

I can’t lie in bed until Evan comes.

Irene, thinking that it would be okay to go outside for a while, came down from the bed with light steps.

Before that, I did not forget to sniff her as I curled up in the spot where Evan was lying.

An action that can only be performed when Evan is not around. Although she had previously treated herself like a drool,

After making sure no one was around, Irene buried her face in her pillow where Evan was lying.

“Huh, Evan…”

She usually didn’t do it because she was shy, but she didn’t because her ladies-in-waiting were watching.

In this unfamiliar place where no one sees, Irene was finally able to reveal her true feelings to her heart’s content.

How could she be so lovely even with her body type?

Irene’s cheeks were completely red as she rolled over several times while hugging the blanket covered by Evan.

‘I want to stay like this for the rest of my life…’

But she couldn’t stay like this forever,

Irene cautiously stood up at the sound of her maid’s footsteps coming from around her.

Looking at Evan’s sleeping pillow with regret, she let out a deep sigh and tidied up her disheveled hair.

What will Evan think if she finds out about her like this? She’s

She’s a b*tch, she’s from the past, even when she sees herself, she’s frightened. If Evan saw her, she would be quite surprised.

‘It’s Evan’s fault.’

She must be Evan’s fault for making her this way.

Irene smiled while looking at her in the mirror for a while, and as soon as her lady-in-waiting came in, Irene showed her insensitive expression.

The lady-in-waiting was shocked to see Irene’s face, and then she trembled slightly and opened her mouth.

“…Well, if you’re getting ready to go out, we can help.”

“It’s okay. I can do it alone, so it would be nice if at least one person followed me a little later.”

“Okay. I will prepare.”

As her handmaid disappeared, Irene quietly looked at her mirror.

All she did was tidy up her tousled hair and put some powder on her face without her makeup.

She wouldn’t know when Evan was around, so she didn’t have to strain her hair until Evan was gone.

I don’t know about Evan, but Irene was paying a lot of attention to this part.

The purpose of her going out anyway is just to pass the time until Evan arrives, She

She’s not going to come back when it gets dark enough.

After Irene stepped out of her room, one of her maids followed her casually.

“When did His Majesty the Emperor summon Evan?”

“About two hours.”

“…Two hours.”

I don’t know what you’re talking about, but it must have been pretty important.

She knows maybe she’s talking about her subjugation to Hattan.

Irene was reflecting on many things while chewing on subjugation only as her past.

For what she had no choice but to watch, to not become a burden to Evan now.

It took her a long time to spread her influence in the social world,

She was still putting in quite a bit more time and effort than before.

In order for her to be supported by people she trusts when she later fights against a family belonging to extinction,

Irene was going around in her own way so that she could gather strength under her name called Euris and help her Evan.

‘It will take a while before it bears fruit.’

Still, before this whole fight is over, she might be able to help Evan.

Carefully holding her hair as it swayed in the wind, Irene smiled.

Then wouldn’t Evan compliment himself?

She might say that she can’t live without her. Then she will naturally talk about marriage…

“Um.”

Realizing that the accident had gone awry for a moment, Irene swallowed her drool.

She looked at her lady-in-waiting, wondering if she had ever said such a thing out of her mouth, but

The lady-in-waiting was just staring at her empty space, but she didn’t show any reaction.

…I have to be careful. Since I started dating Evan, these delusions have popped up from time to time,

Irene herself was just in trouble. No, it wasn’t delusion.

Isn’t it something that will definitely come true someday?

Looking at the emerald in her ring slowly, Irene gathered her heart and she started walking down her street again.

It was a quiet street, but nonetheless, there were numerous stalls lined up befitting the name Hwangdo.

Gorgeous dresses and accessories that are rarely seen in the North, as well as new items from across the continent.

After looking around for a while, Irene’s footsteps stopped when she passed a stall without any signs.

“Are you interested? I only do business here today, so it will be difficult to find these items from tomorrow.”

“…Is this?”

It was her black headband that Irene poked with her finger.

It may look ordinary, but Irene’s headband caught my eye because of the decoration on top of her headband.

“It’s a headband modeled after the horns of a princess from the next continent.”

“The princess has her horns?”

“Yeah, what…isn’t it something similar to the Fried family?”

Whether the princess from the next continent had horns or how to use them wasn’t something Irene was curious about.

Her white horns growing from her black headband, as if attracted by something of hers, attracted Irene’s interest.

Antle that curves slightly backwards to ensure a stable grip whether held from the front or from the back.

“Ergonomic shape. It’s something you can’t easily get even in Evangelium.”

“…Certainly.”

Irene nodded her head.

When she recalled the regret she felt a few days ago, she thought right away that she needed something like this.

I tried a little on her headband, and the black part of her headband was completely absorbed into her hair and began to settle in naturally like her natural antlers.

It doesn’t shake even when you hold it…More than anything else, it was important that it was natural.

“It is enchanted, so it probably won’t come off unless you take it off yourself.”

Gulp.

Irene involuntarily swallowed her saliva at the words of her merchant.

Handle- No, would Evan like it if I was wearing a headband like this?

Irene’s cheeks began to turn red as she recalled the contents of the book Lopena gave her.

Hmm, hmm. Irene’s hand cleared her throat and pointed to one end of her shelf.

And again, her fingers moved gently to the tip of the other side.

The meaning of her hand gesture was clear, and that day the merchant obtained four gold coins.

Irene walked toward her imperial palace with lighter steps than ever before.

Today’s harvest is just what she bought from a merchant,

Her shoulders naturally shrugged as she felt as if she had won thousands of horses.

Of course, the maid holding it didn’t look good, but Irene didn’t see anything like that.

Irene decided that next time she had time, she would read the book Lopena gave her in more detail.

She tilted her head when she saw a carriage stopped at the imperial palace.

No matter how you look at it, it’s not an imperial carriage. However, if it is a carriage of high officials, I have already learned the sentence,

For a moment, I had doubts about the identity of the flag hanging above the wagon.

“Do you know whose wagon belongs to?”

When Irene asked, the lady-in-waiting, who stared at her carriage for a moment, opened her mouth.

“Probably Therazane’s. Because His Majesty the Emperor called Therazane to the ecliptic today.”

“Therazane.”

Irene furrowed her eyebrows as she recalled that she belonged to the family she had seen on her papers before.

Isn’t it a place that has a lot of contact with extinction? What does it mean that the emperor himself called such a family?

She thought about it for a moment, but eventually she was caught by a clue she lacked.

Speak directly, or listen directly to the emperor.

However, Evan was the only one who served the emperor alone,

She thought that Evan would listen to her story, but Irene’s gaze soon turned to a woman getting out of her carriage.

“The Imperial Palace…Really big.”

“Of course. This palace is the largest and most beautiful place in this empire.”

“There was nothing like this in our estate.”

“You can make it later. When are you going?”

A woman staring at her imperial palace with her hair blowing in the wind.

Irene felt uncomfortable at the sight of Scarlett, who was free-spirited no matter who looked at her and exuded an active atmosphere unlike her static self.

Doesn’t she seem to be in conflict with herself and her? It wasn’t too difficult for Irene to infer the existence of her Scarlett.

The only woman belonging to the family of Therazane,

She was a commoner, but when she was taken in as a child and raised as a noble woman, that meant only Scarlett Terra Jane.

But that was all. Evan’s reaction made her feel a little uncomfortable,

She had no other feelings for a woman named Scarlet Terra Jane.

As much as it is quite surprising that Evan remembers the name of such a woman, it was because there was nothing special about her other than her appearance.

“…Let’s go.”

Irene lost interest in a woman named Scarlett.

She tried to interest her for a moment, but nothing interested her except the feeling that she might belong to the Extinction.

Isn’t she much better than a woman like that? There’s no way Evan would have feelings for a woman like that.

That was the moment she decided to turn her back.

“Uh, no way?”

What caught Scarlett’s eyes was the image of a knight escaping from the palace.

The well-groomed blonde hair, beautiful features, and even the crest of Julis embroidered on the uniform draped over the sturdy body.

There was only one name for such a person,

Scarlett, who ran at once, was headed in front of Evan, who was walking absentmindedly.

Scarlett, who actually saw her admiration, envy, and rumors about the article, immediately stamped her foot in front of Evan and licked her lips.

“Ho, are you Evan? That she caught that dragon!”

“……”

Evan’s expression hardened coldly when he recognized her scarlet,

Scarlett, unaware of Evan’s speed, just held her hands together.

Regardless of her extinction, Scarlett was always interested in rumors about her from the ecliptic.

The story of a knight named Evan Fried takes up the largest share among them.

For Scarlett, who met the person involved in the rumor, it was nothing but a thrilling experience for her.

Evan was looking at Scarlett like that and making a puzzled expression for a while,

She eventually turned her head at the presence she felt next to her, and Irene with a rather cold expression was standing next to her.

As if very angry, her expressionless expression did not contain any emotion.

When Scarlett, who was in the midst of excitement, froze at the expression as if she was wearing a mask,

Irene smiled bitterly and gently hid her Evan behind her own back.

I tried to leave her alone because she didn’t pay any attention to me, but isn’t she a pretty bold woman?

An alarm bell started ringing in Irene’s head.

The flame called jealousy was burning fiercer than ever in the blue eyes.
