The Greatest Architect

94. Snitches and Yarbone (2)

“... and him too. ”

Lloyd grins.

A smile flows out without me knowing.

Julian standing in front of you.

When I saw him, I felt warm and proud.

But at the same time, my hands and feet growled mercilessly.

It was even more so when I looked back at what he just said.

“So, you don't hate me anymore? ”

“... Uh, yeah. ”

“I used to hate it a lot. ”

“Yes, I did. ”

“So what are you going to do about it now? ”

“Oh, well……. ”

“Nice and easy? ”

“Well, that's not it. ”

“Friendly, then? ”

“ ……. ”

“So warm and warm and soft? ”

“…… Oh, shit. ”

Julian's face crumples.

Lloyd's mouth was filled with a disgusting smile.

“Do you have any idea what you just did? ”

“Phew, yeah. ”

“Are your hands and feet together? ”

“Huh."

“I was so fat on my toes, man. ”

“ ……. ”

“Never, ever say anything like that again. ”

“ ……. ”

“Phew, I almost had a duodenal cramp, seriously. ”

Lloyd pats his belly.

Actually, the words made me sick, but I didn't feel bad.

No, to be honest, I was delighted and delighted.

Just because you got a lot of RP?

It wasn't.

RP was also rewarded with visible nuclear gains, of course, but the warmth I felt in my heart was much greater.

Suddenly, I thought of it as a child.

‘I wish I had a brother back then. ’

People who actually have siblings would freak out and stop them (?) It was a good idea.

But he was serious.

When I grew up alone, I couldn't help it.

That's why I sometimes tried swarms with my parents.

I want a brother, too.

I want to play with my sister like the kids next door.

By the time I was eight.

One day I ended up crashing into the living room wall with a crayon.

Taekwondv skewed the robot, which any boy or girl would know.

He's about a foot taller than he used to be.

And a somewhat dynamic lifelong pose.

It even made me wrinkle.

That evening, I was surprised to see the living room mural and said to my parents, from this day on, I was delighted to say that he is my brother.

At the time, my parents made a smile that was more embarrassing than scolding themselves.

So I didn't know at the time.

that he was barely born in vitro.

‘…… Phew, let's not think. ’

Sometimes, no, sometimes.

It is a problem for old memories to rise like this.

I make people feel useless without notice.

Lloyd lets out a faint sigh and squeezes the flickering memory tip into his heart.

Then I looked at Julian.

“Anyway, I'm going back to the baron tomorrow. Oh, of course, before that, I'd like to fire up my evening schedule. ”

“Dinner plans? ”

“Yeah. The king said that. There's gonna be a great party tonight, so be there. ”

“Party?”

“Uh, the banquet. It's a royal banquet commemorating the completion of the Hyundai Bridge. Well, it's obvious. The musicians play music, and in between, the nobles tend to look into their connections. Then a rude young nobleman will fight! It's a very common repertoire. ”

“Brother, your imagination is richer than ever. ”

“I understand you're getting smarter. Anyway, there you go. ”

“Huh? Me too? ”

Julian opens his eyes wide.

Lloyd smiles bloody.

“Of course. He's the famous brother. That alone qualifies you. Plus”

His voice became meaningful.

“As I said before, attend the banquet and you will be faced with many of the nobles. ”

“Well, then…. ”

“Some of the families I snitched on in the middle of the day. ”

“Well, that's awkward, isn't it? ”

“No, I have to attend with confidence. Literally, you haven't done anything wrong. He's a victim, but he's hiding? Nonsense. ”

It's true.

The more we do this, the more we have to face it.

Make sure your face is full and your titanium plate is tight.

“So you've got some nerve. All right? That'll make you feel better. ”

“Okay, okay. ”

Julian nods to see if he understands this.

Such a clever one.

Lloyd was delighted.

And at the same time, I was prepared for myself.

‘Maybe today's banquet is not just a place to celebrate. ’

The king is not such a slob.

Obviously, he would try to keep himself around.

A great job, or a prize for mouthing off. They will put out all sorts of honey nets and put themselves in the royal family.

He called himself here to feed himself like that in the first place, to test his abilities.

‘Of course, I have no intention of remaining entertained. ’

Wherever he was, his hope was now as white as a bee.

I didn't want to suffer any more.

I did not want to live too hard.

Now I wanted to go back to the Baron and clear my debts and suck on my honey.

So now, it was time to strike the last rock to return quietly to the baron.

The slow elegant melody tickled the marble floor.

A shimmer of chandeliers flows down like a starlight.

The hall of glory, the hall of such splendor and grandeur.

Inside, Lloyd was dressed as a conqueror.

The king approached him and set an example.

He said as if he was beating the lead.

“Long live the Great King. And the castle is doomed, I hate it. ”

“…… No, what? ”

The king, Alicia Termina Magentano, raises a sharp eyebrow. It's always felt true, but he's so bold and curious.

The king asked again.

“Jim hasn't asked me anything yet. But what do you want to reject so badly that you start saying no to your burden? ”

“Perhaps you were about to say to me, 'I will give you the proper vomit and title.' ”

“Jim?”

“I'm afraid so.”

“Why?”

“You don't mean to tell me to take the royal position. ”

“Hmm, have you learned any reading skills? ”

“No.”

“What if?”

“I noticed.”

“Ha.”

Clutch.

The king smiles briefly, placing the crystal cup.

I picked up a new glass from the Grand Chamberlain's Tray.

Beyond the edge of a slightly tilted glass.

I put Lloyd in my eyes when I lowered.

“I can't help but admit it. Your guess is correct. Jim intended to hold the perfect vomit, title, and enormous gold coins for you today. He also wanted to give you a proper commission. ”

“You opened a banquet to proclaim it. ”

“I do.”

The second glass is tilted.

Dry and acidic sparkling as your first drink.

From then on, the delicate red family is stepped up.

That was King Alicia's drinking pattern.

She said, adhering to her routine.

“I'm curious. Why do you say no to titles, bongos, money, and bureaucracy? ”

“No great reason. However”

“Only?”

“I'd rather just be buried in the middle of the night quietly. ”

“…… is that the only reason? ”

“I'm afraid so.”

Lloyd bows deeper.

The silent king poured out his third cup.

Looking at her reaction, I thought.

‘Okay, it's going exactly as I thought. ’

Suddenly, I remembered what happened before.

I thought about myself again and again until I attended this banquet tonight.

An offer of admission from a certain flying king.

I don't know how to say no.

I put on my uniform, I tied my head, I put myself in the wagon, and I pondered.

And I came to my own conclusion.

The law of justice was the answer.

‘If you make a foolish excuse for it, you may suffer from hypocrisy. ’

In fact, there are many ways to make excuses.

Sick, sick in the house.

Or he's busy, or he's not ready.

Everything can be an excuse if you bring it.

I could make as many excuses as I wanted to go to the nurse's office, leave early, and lie for a month's ride.

But somebody did.

Kim Gun × is the only one who succeeded in Korea as an excuse.

Lloyd believed the statement would still apply in the present situation.

‘The moment you make excuses, you get your own spider silk. ’

If you don't get a job because of your health, you can be healthy.

The same is true of family misfortune and busyness.

Once the cause of all excuses is eliminated, the next excuse is lost.

The king was the one who was given an excuse.

If you refuse to serve as an excuse against the king, you can become the king's servant by stitching your nose and pulling it out later.

‘Just like Hwang Hee Jung Seung Seung. ’

When not to be considered.

It was Hwang Hee Jung who was the comrade of Tae Jong Lee and the test in the past.

But what about later?

I was asked by Sejong the Great, the son of a foreign ministry, and I couldn't rest until I was old enough to die, so I had to hang on to Narat work.

Please, no matter how much I begged for rest, it didn't work.

Even if I heard about my family's death as an excuse for my health, I couldn't escape.

I told him to die all his life.

I worked until I died, and then I really died.

‘Ugh, creepy. ’

Lloyd shrugs.

Lifetime slave winnings that are not in your pocket are truly no good.

Therefore, it would be better to battle publicly rather than waiting for a clumsy excuse. You'll have a much better chance. That's how Lloyd decided. Action taken. Action taken.

I finally got what I expected.

“I see. You don't want to talk about it like you don't want to carry your burden." ”

“I beg your pardon.”

“No. It's not worth sitting next to someone who doesn't have a heart. How can someone who sits with no mind and only body be faithful to the mission? ”

The lips of the king gave birth to bloodshed and bitter laughter.

“Jim is not a tyrant. You are a tribute to this great cause here in the royal province and in Cremo early this year. I want to respect your wishes. So you can go back to your hometown and spend the rest of your days at ease. ”

“Your Holiness is doomed, Your Majesty. ”

“Really?"

“ ……. ”

“Thank goodness for me. I also know that heart. So I urge you to come up to the Royal Road whenever you change your mind. ”

“…… Are you saying that the gates of the office are always open? ”

“Of course.”

Clutch.

Raising the fourth cup, King Alicia said.

“In the name of Jim, I promise, you will always have your vomit, title and authority ready for you. ”

“The castle is doomed, Your Majesty. ”

“I hope that one day it really will be ruined. Goodbye.”

The sound of the king turning his back.

The sound of the sneakers became distant.

Then Lloyd looks up, looking down at his head.

“Whoa.”

The breath that was trapped in the lungs is exhaled.

The fist that swept my chest suddenly grabbed me.

"Success!"

Lloyd rejoiced.

Luckily, the civil law strategy worked.

‘No matter how much I hate the king, I can't force a man to take office. ’

Suddenly, a famous teacher of the Three Kingdoms came to mind. At that time, how much money had to run to recruit my own weight.

I thought the world would be similar because it's a place where people live.

Fortunately, that prediction was a good one.

‘Besides, I also promised to give you a title and a burlap if you need it in the future, so this is literally perfected in case of old age protection. ’

A joyful smile leaked out.

It's all done now.

And repay the debt.

All I had to do was suck on the honey my whole life.

I literally had a 34 pyeong new apartment in Gangnam without loans, and I felt like my life was about to be filled with German car payments, college tuition, marriage funds, and my retirement pension.

"Hoo. I just want to go back to the Baron as soon as I think about it. ’

So let's play it cool today.

Enjoy a feast like a royal feast.

I moved on thinking that way.

I walked like a man who entered the buffet after starving for about three days.

I approached the acolytes with food trays.

But it was then.

A word I had never thought of made him stop.

“The banquet will continue until the moon falls. ”

Huh?

I heard a simple word somewhere.

I could not feel the smell of anything suspicious.

But the moment he heard that, Lloyd had to feel like he was covered in ice water.

I had to swallow dry saliva without even knowing it.

The reason was simple.

Why is that horse coming out now? ’

Unexpectedly, it reminded me of the story in the article of Iron Blood Novel.

Two and a half years from now.

An unfortunate event has struck the kingdom.

It was the impending king's last year.

On that day, there was a code shared by those who poisoned King Alicia and took her arm.

A word that was too common.

I can't feel the smell of anything suspicious.

That's it. The banquet will continue until the moon tilts. ’

So we shouldn't be hearing that right now.

Two and a half years later.

And now, I've heard it.

Lloyd turns to hear the sound of words.

Lord Cherny and the Grand Chamberlain smiled.

It gives me goose bumps.

At that moment, Lloyd was convinced.

In a novel, I think I may have found the culprit of the late King's Sea incident, which was not revealed properly.
