Surviving the Romance Fantasy

If I had to pick a correct answer, the correct answer would be to leave her alone no matter what happens to her.

– It’s Princess Cheondo’s palanquin!

– What good did you do that you ride on such a fancy palanquin until the day you are dethroned and leave the palace?

– My father died because of Ilgwi! Take responsibility! Take responsibility!

– Ugh… My daughter… Bring back my daughter who was killed by a ghost…

As the palanquin of Princess Cheondo, whose dethronement was completely decided, passed by, the lowest-ranking officials around it screamed.

Among them, there were those who gritted their teeth in anger, and there were also people who cried over their families lost to the ghost.

Is it really entirely Princess Cheondo’s fault?

There is no point in thinking about it that way.

Those who lose assets, lose friends, lose family… In the end, those who are left alone need someone to blame.

Even if the facts are different, if there is no direction for the anger to grow, it will fester within you and explode.

I sat on top of the southwest wall and closed my eyes as I looked at the people gathered on the way to Princess Cheondo’s palace.

– Tuuk Tuuk

Several stones flew and hit the palanquin in which Princess Cheondo was riding.

At first, it was just a few small pieces of stone, but soon even equipment and food started flying around.

All kinds of dirty things come flying into the noble Princess Cheondo’s palanquin.

The palanquin workers just grit their teeth with an embarrassed expression and drag the palanquin forward.

Place the victim on the gallows and burn him at the stake.

Find the cause of this great disaster and burn it down.

Looking at the public, half engulfed in madness, can we say that they are uncivilized and foolish?

Actually, this is something I saw often before I flew into this strange world.

There were times when I felt disillusioned by the crowd that was swayed by such scenes.

Sometimes, I would mix in with the crowd and scream together, and other times, I would become the target of the crowd’s insults and live with my head down.

Before questioning whether it was right or wrong, it was just something that happened naturally.

Crowds move based on emotions. Princess Cheondo had already realized this obvious fact after experiencing this unreasonable world over and over again.

So, I guess I was able to accept this situation so easily.

Rather than viewing the crowds who were swearing at him and throwing rocks and dirt as individual people… he must have lived his life perceiving them as a ‘phenomenon’ that would naturally happen.

I remember the image of Princess Ahyeon sitting quietly at Cheonokjeong and looking up at the waterfall.

After experiencing a disaster, the crowd wants to find and hold accountable those responsible.

It is a natural phenomenon, like a waterfall falling down.

– Mei Iik

The central gate in the southwest direction begins to open for the Princess of Cheondo to leave the palace.

The sight of that huge door opening is as if a huge beast has opened its mouth to devour its prey.

Princess Cheondo, who does not receive the assistance of numerous maids, becomes nothing more than a village girl wandering around everywhere the moment she leaves that door.

“Bicheon, let’s move.”

Bicheon, who was looking down at the situation behind me, nodded.

*

When the palanquin goes out of the middle gate, it takes Princess Ahyeon to the active room.

I know very well how much of a political burden it is to have the dethroned Princess Cheondo in the active room.

Princess Ahyeon herself knew this well, so her intention was probably to run away without even looking back.

In any case, she had an obsession that nothing would interfere with my path to success, so she would not have wanted to leave behind even the slightest risk factor.

But, when have I ever reached out to people while considering such things?

Understanding, gain and loss, self-interest and discernment. They are all important, but in the end, among the teachings I received from Baekseon Lee Cheol-un, there is only one thing that is most important.

Do what you think is right.

If you are convinced that it is right, stand up with your sword resolutely in the face of any irrationality or opposition.

Pulling out a sword at the queen on the podium at the birthday ceremony, letting the queen of the queen run away and fighting the detachment, and saving the queen of deok, who would later become the concubine’s mudfish.

I just did it because I thought it was right.

If you push forward with your beliefs with unwavering faith, the day will surely come when you will see the light.

Because I had no doubt about that fact, I lived my life doing what I thought was right.

Once you get it into the activation room, you can come up with countless methodologies that won’t bear the political burden.

Even if someone catches you and finds fault with you, you can take full responsibility as long as you deal with it well.

Are you afraid that your existence will become my weakness? That’s a story that looks at me too much.

If you live your life avoiding responsibility because you are afraid of it, you will not be able to achieve anything.

In the first place, isn’t a man’s life bright when he tries to handle responsibility, not when he runs away from it?

No matter what you think, I live the way I have lived.

Well, there is no need to think about it in a complicated way. That’s just my way.

– Taang!

– Crack! widely!

The group of Black Moons under my command attacked Princess Cheondo’s palanquin.

According to the laws of the State of Qingdao, the person who is dethroned becomes completely unrelated to the palace from the moment he or she leaves the Qingdao Palace.

She has completely lost her qualifications as the Princess of Cheondo, so it doesn’t matter how she is treated now.

– Kwaaak! Sigh!

“Ugh! what! “He’s an assassin!”

Even the palanquin workers put down their palanquins and run away. Now, the person riding this palanquin is not Princess Cheondo, so it doesn’t matter.

The assassins who came in broke down the door of the kiln and checked inside.

“…”

However, the inside of the kiln was empty.

There was only a letter written on a luxurious silk scroll, as if the person who attacked the palanquin wanted it to be read.

Yes.

Princess Ahyeon of Cheondo is a person who has some insight into the flow of the future.

To some extent, he had predicted this situation after he was dethroned.

—————————————

To Taepyeong

I am writing this letter under the last moon seen from Tianlongchae.

This will probably be the last time I smell the scent of plum blossoms coming through the boudoir window. it’s a shame. It was good.

When I think about it, it was a long time, like a dream.

Now that I have almost lost the power of the Heavenly Dragon, the memories of Taepyeong and the time you helped me often feel like a past dream. Probably because so much time has passed.

I think I should start by saying I’m sorry, Taepyeong.

I can no longer be the Princess of Cheondo. You probably knew it well, but after losing my title as Princess of Cheondo, I became a burden to you and will never be of any benefit to you.

You have to muster up as much strength as you can before you face the gigantic enemy known as the Rebellious Demon, right?

The fact that the dethroned Princess Cheondo is in the active room will only serve as a political weakness.

Since I have now surpassed Hyeongwoljang and will soon rise to the position of deputy general, there is no benefit in increasing my weaknesses unnecessarily.

I wanted to put you in the position of general before he was dethroned, but I think I did a good job at this level. After this, you will be able to take care of things on your own without Princess Cheondo, right?

I will pack my bags and leave Cheongdo Palace early this morning.

However, thanks to the consideration of my superiors, I was able to set out on my own when no one else was watching.

Perhaps by the time he sees the empty palanquin you attacked, he will realize that the head maid, Yi-ryeong, was in the same boat as me.

I’m sorry for not being able to tell you in advance. However, since I knew how you would turn out, I couldn’t help it.

After I am dethroned, a new Princess of Cheondo will have to be elected.

Because the selection process for the Princess of Heaven is long and arduous, a temporary shaman must be selected to support the power of the Heavenly Dragon. He is the person who will be the owner of Cheonryongchae for the time being.

Originally, my dethronement would have been much later, but as Ilgwi became stronger through repeated reincarnations, I was dethroned sooner than expected. Originally, Ilgwi’s arrival wasn’t this much of a disaster.

So, we need to carefully select someone who will take on this position until Lady Seol becomes the Princess of Cheondo. Since it is not easy to find such a noble woman, one of the masters of the Four Palaces will have to step forward.

Well, most things will be decided at the party meeting… but now that you are a deputy general, you will be able to raise your voice at the party meeting.

So, I will trust that you will do well.

Please cheer up, Taepyeong.

I have to wander the world for a while.

I hope you don’t feel too disappointed.

In the many reincarnations I have had so far, I have been dethroned several times, and there was always a time when I wandered the world like this.

Although I couldn’t go near Cheongdo Palace, wandering around Cheongsan and walking around various worlds was a great memory and asset for me.

And it’s a bit embarrassing, but you were at the starting point of this whole journey.

This may be a bit confusing to you. Because I won’t remember.

Nevertheless, at this point in my final reincarnation, I really want to talk to you.

thank you. Because of you, I was able to endure this terrible cycle of reincarnation.

Thank you for understanding me at a time when I was vicious, full of evil, and hating the world.

Even though I thought she was a woman with a bad personality and a harsh attitude, I am grateful to her for accepting me until the end and teaching me the beauty of life.

Thank you for making me feel that the world is not so full of poison.

Thank you for giving me a reason to care for the people, and thank you for giving me a reason to live a little longer.

Thank you for staying alive despite all the adversity and pain.

I’ve looked back on so many years that it’s hard to even count them…

The fact that Dokjong, who only knew how to wield the power of a mighty heavenly dragon, was able to survive this far and continue his journey is entirely thanks to you.

So, you must survive.

We’re not breaking up forever.

In any case, it is my destiny to return to Cheongdo Palace.

So, let’s meet again before the story ends.

– Ahyeon (娥絃)

—————————————

After covering the letter again, I looked down at the floor of the carriage for a moment.

Bicheon, who was sitting across from me, looked at my expression, trembled, and lowered his head.

“Seol Daein. “Are you okay?”

“okay. “It’s just… I knew it would end up like this, but there was a strange sadness in the air.”

How can you catch someone who knows the future?

If he decides to leave, no one can stop him.

I knew that was true, but I just stretched my hand into the air.

If you look at it that way, Princess Ahyeon always lived in irrationality.

Because she seemed immature and only showed a bright side in everything… it was difficult to fully understand the situation she was in.

He must have suffered more than anyone else in the endless cycle of death. It’s just a repetition of reincarnation, it’s just a living hell.

Perhaps the first few times he really lived in this cursed cycle of destruction, he was crying out in sorrow.

And in the subsequent reincarnation, you must have had many experiences.

You may have had many dreams, sometimes you may have achieved them, and sometimes you may have lost your dreams.

I guess the conclusion I reached in the end was to embrace the emotions that were gradually wearing away through the repetition of success and failure and enjoy life like I do now.

The sight of me sitting in the middle of Cheonokjeong, eating delicious food, and always cheerfully welcoming me… was actually the final destination of a very long journey.

As we laughed, cried, and talked like that, we held on so that our hearts would not be worn out.

Did you try to understand her? No, that never happened.

Seeing Princess Ahyeon always smiling and talking like that, there wasn’t even the slightest trace of such grief left behind.

Through the long fight, she has become stronger in her own way. The proof is that I didn’t notice the grief.

“It’s just… I didn’t do anything right…”

“…”

“That’s just that…”

I lowered my head and quietly trembled with my fingertips.

“It’s just that it leaves a big lump in my heart….”

Originally, meeting and parting were fleeting.

They say that meeting as if flowing and leaving as if flowing is the bond between people.

Baekseon was sent away, General Busu was sent away, and Princess Ahyeon was also sent away.

Well… Anyway, she’s alive and well, isn’t she?

They are not dead, just spending time wandering the world and reflecting on their lives.

At the end of the story, let’s meet again.

As the girl said, all I have to do is steadily move towards the end of the story.

I’ll see you there again.

The only sound that could be heard was the crackling sound of carriage wheels rolling.

In the carriage heading towards the active room, only Biman was lowering his head as if he was embarrassed.

How to comfort the disappointed lord… it must have been too much of a challenge for this young apprentice warrior.

The carriage just quietly moves forward.

Just like our lives, lives, and relationships are all like that.

“Hello~! “I am Yeon-ri, a middle school maid who came to be the maid arranged by Nari, the active room, Hyeongwoljang~!”

“…”

“Hey~. Hyeongwoljang Nari It’s been a while~. You have really changed significantly compared to when you were an apprentice warrior at Baekseon Palace. I almost didn’t recognize it! “It seems like only yesterday that we were struggling together during the Baekseon Palace days, but I’m so glad that we met again like this!”

Active room, Hyeongwoljang’s home.

When I turned my gaze to look at Hasihwa for a moment, she spoke hesitantly.

From Noble mtl dot com

Hyeongwoljang was an old friend from Baekseon Palace’s time, and he was said to be good at his job, so they brought him here.

The proposal for Yeon-ri’s appointment itself has already been discussed for a long time, but it seems that there was no need to officially report it because Yeon-ri herself, who returned home, still had a year left to move up from her hometown.

“After leaving Baekseon Palace, I went down to my hometown for a while to check on my parents. However, upon returning to Cheongdo Palace, I heard news that there was a shortage of workers due to various disasters… I never thought Hyeongwoljang would be so successful! Wow, I knew you were going to be this successful, but I had no idea you were this successful.”

“Ju..Juseon’s maid is in front of the execution center, so be polite.”

“Manager Ha, you are really strict too~. Hyeongwoljang Nari and I have been together through thick and thin since the days of Baekseon Palace… so even Hyeongwoljang can understand a certain level of disrespect.”

I grabbed Yeonri’s collar and spoke with my eyes wide open.

“They said they were scared that it would be a nuisance.”

“Well… that’s the story of Princess Cheondo… and I’m Yeonri, the maid of honor?!”

“No, if it’s going to be like this, at least give me a heads up….”

“No, I can’t do that…”

Yeon-ri smiled with difficulty while breaking out into a cold sweat.

“You can’t make a surprise appearance… then…”

I felt a chill seeping out of my eyes.

“Do you really want to search?”

“Thank you… please save me….”

After that, the new maid, Yeonri, had to stand in the hallway for an hour.

As I watched him raise his hands with tears streaming down his face, no matter how much I thought about it, all I could think of was that he was getting a beating.

She was sitting in Cheonokjeong’s pavilion, smiling as if she was having fun and making plans here and there.

The past times of hardship under the guidance of Princess Cheondo vaguely passed through my memory.

Still, when I think about it again, I think there were a lot of good memories.

okay.

The memories of that time… what it was like…

“…”

…You are now behind.
