96 – Attack of the Cowards

Tears soon become a weapon. Especially if it’s the tears of someone who looks younger than you if you judge only by appearance.

The atmosphere in the room, which was about to become a mess due to Rian’s confession, was calmed down by Sola’s gloomy expression. But I couldn’t blame anyone. Because I said it myself and cried myself.

“Uh.. don’t cry.. I get it. I know how hard it is..”

“I’m not crying.”

I’m not crying despite my own words. The gloomy expression that looked like it was about to cry soon returned to its original state as if it had never happened after sniffing once.

“Anyway, even if you know Ron’s condition, you won’t be able to understand it. If you don’t want to understand and embrace him, I’d appreciate it if you could tell me right away and give up.”

Mirsenne, who had been temporarily weakened by Solar’s damp voice, had no intention of giving up or giving up now.

In the first place, the appearance was far from likable, but I gave him my heart. Whatever his present state was, it did not make her go through.

Because the biggest factor in why she was attracted to him was his personality.

Mirsen destroyed the Demon Realm and returned to the Empire to consolidate her position. Naturally, I also attended social gatherings, and I had conversations with many famous people there.

Everyone who met her there expressed a crush on her. Everyone, regardless of gender, had a well-mannered appearance, well-maintained good looks, and held a position worthy of respect.

But there was no trembling. I didn’t have the trembling of my heart that I always felt when I talked to him. My heart was pounding just by looking at the bandages that were covered up, but for some reason, when I saw those well-dressed, but ignorant people, my beating heart seemed to cool down.

“Give up? You’re never going to give up?”

“Princess, may I ask how old the princess is now?”

“I’m going to turn 18 this year.”

“I’m almost 10 years older than Ron. Are you okay?”

To be precise, the difference was not 10 years, but 8 years, but Lane raised the age difference like that, probably because she was thinking of increasing the princess’s reluctance.

With that much of an age difference, it wouldn’t be strange to call him Mister.

Nevertheless, Mirsen showed no signs of worrying and showed her strong will by nodding her head.

“It doesn’t matter. Couples with a 10-year age gap are common, aren’t they?”

“When the princess is in her 30s, Ron will be in her 40s. This difference will be bigger than I thought? Are you okay?”

“If you have love, it doesn’t matter.”

“What if that love grows cold?”

“I can’t ever do that. Until I die, I won’t let you go even if I die. I’ll hold on to it forever.”

Although to a lesser degree than them, Myrsene also had a deep and sloppy heart.

What crime did he commit in his previous life that people with such strong hearts flock to him?

It seemed that even if I said more than that, Myrsene would never give up.

After Ron joined the agenda later, Lane, who decided to bring it up again, changed his mind.

“So, what did the princess talk about with Ron?”

“It’s a secret.”

Mirsen said with a smile as if she were proud.

Even though it was a beautiful smile like a fresh flower blooming, the expressions of the others here were hardened and did not think to open up.

The special meaning of the word “secret” is because something made my stomach churn.

Rain, who had a sad expression on his face that no one could understand, inadvertently looked at Solar and Lian.

A glance, an offer of action, permission.

Lane, who perfectly communicated with the movement of his eyes and set up an impromptu strategy, jumped up from his seat.

“I’ll ask you directly.”

“Rain. That’s a breach of contract. When we bet earlier, we decided to go one by one, didn’t we?”

“Rian. Weren’t we allies? What do you gain by preventing the act of finding out the truth?”

Lian grabs Lane’s arm and tries to stop her actions, but as soon as he stares directly into Lane’s eyes, he breaks out in a cold sweat and avoids his gaze. Lian’s courage, which lasted less than three seconds, came to an end.

“You might get a bad reaction if you go, right? So…”

“Solar. You don’t think I know what you mean by saying that? It looks like you said that to leave room for a refutation, but I’m not fooling you.”

The atmosphere cools down. Mirsen, who suddenly became like a shrimp caught in a whale fight, begins to sweat profusely.

“Uh… hey… I’m sorry…”

I just said that they disbanded without conflict, but apart from the appearance of the women who were the first warriors who quickly created conflict… the current situation was really bad.

In fact, there was no such thing as a secret. I said that because I just wanted to have a slight edge over them, but a bloody atmosphere was created that seemed to break the air.

Al Sola is glaring at Lane with the corners of her eyes raised even higher, as if she were going to sing a chant right away.

Rain Guard-on has already put his hand on the handle of the iron sword.

Lian Serwin is… fidgeting in a corner.

How could he have endured such an easily bursting atmosphere? It was a moment when Ron’s greatness touched his heart even more.

With a clicking sound, the iron sword begins to fall out of the scabbard.

‘no! If that thing gets pulled out, it’s really over!’

an imminent situation.

Mirsen didn’t know yet. That this situation was a plan they made with only their eyes.

Must not exceed 3 people. If more people increase than this, his love for his future self will decrease even more.

It was a terrifying strategy to imprint on her that “if you become a partner, your life may be in danger” by revealing how dangerous they are to her.

There was a risk that Myrsene would run to Ron and accuse these people of being dangerous, but she didn’t consider that.

Who would you trust more, a colleague who had been on an adventure together for over 10 years, or a princess who cooperated once?

For a hasty plan, it was more complete than expected. Facial expressions, gestures, and even an on-the-go atmosphere that makes you feel like you’re going to fight.

It was to the point that even those who knew it could feel that it was sincerity without a single lie.

“Sorry to say it’s a secret.. Please don’t fight.. there’s going to be a real uproar..”

Myrsene flinches and tries to stop them.

It wouldn’t have mattered if it was just a women’s fight. Rather, Myrsene could have had the upper hand. But this case was very different. I couldn’t stop it with what I had.

Magic? there is solar

authority? In the first place, they are in a position not to bow to power.

money? Would they want to? No, should I be obsessed with money?

What about suppressing by force? Would he be able to injure them even if he mobilized his entire army?

Among the things they have right now, the two things they are interested in are giving up this feeling or revealing what they said is a secret.

Giving up one’s heart is impossible, so revealing the truth of what was said to be a secret is a hundred times better situation.

How embarrassing it must have been to find myself in this situation because of a momentary wrong choice. Ordinary people might have already bitten the bubble because they were depressed.

“The hero asked if he could borrow a private. He said he was looking for demonic scenes scattered across the continent.. Really, this is the end. There is nothing else..”

The fidgety Myrsene told all of the conversations she had with Ron. However, the atmosphere of the artificial day did not think to be solved.

The momentum died, but I didn’t know that I would reveal the truth that I was trying to cover up so easily.

They were unaware of Mirsen’s true intentions.

Rain, Solar, and Lian exchanged glances once again at the princess’s weak will.

(Seeing how easy it is to reveal it, do you think it would be easy to reveal that we were colleagues?)

Lian, who was in the corner, conveyed his intentions first, rolling his eyes weakly.

(Should I manipulate some memories?)

Solar asks.

(I think Ron will be suspicious if the princess’s condition suddenly becomes strange.)

Lane answers.

Looking closely at the princess, she creates a bloody atmosphere on the outside.

Fortunately, Mirsen focused on the immediate situation and did not notice that they were talking with their eyes.

(So what?)

(Should I explain the situation to Ron and erase his memory?)

(I think the princess is a little close with Ron. Is it okay?)

(..It’s annoying. Anyway.. if that’s the case, shouldn’t you just say it properly and get a definite answer?)

(Is there any magic among your magic, such as making it impossible to say more than necessary?)

Solar wrinkled her brow at Lian’s words, who seemed to know all-around magic.

Seeing this, Lian flinched in a more shrunken state in a corner, but didn’t reach Mirsen’s gaze. I could only see Sola getting more angry.

If you know the truth, it was a pretty funny sight, but Mirsen, the person involved, couldn’t laugh at all.

‘help me..’

“Princess.”

“Yes!”

Myrsene, unable to even wipe the sweat from the sensation of stabbing her stomach, stood upright in surprise.

“Next time, please don’t reveal secrets so easily. Especially, that we were friends with Ron.”

Why the hell don’t you reveal that you’re a colleague?

Mirsen’s curiosity, which was already strong, poked out his head.

“Never, never say anything. Under any circumstances, it would be better if you just act like you don’t know until we reveal it first.”

It sounds like it would be good, he said, but it contained pressure and mana.

It’s a threat in a calm tone. I was more scared because I didn’t know what I was going to do again.

Even after receiving Mirsen’s confirmation, they did not speak.

No, it was natural. If you reveal that it is acting here, wouldn’t it be possible for Mirsen to retract what he just said out of resentment?

exchange of glances.

(What about this situation?)

(Lian, aren’t you good at this? Can I leave it to you?)

(Only look for me at times like this!)

However, Rian couldn’t find a solution, so he had no choice but to step out.

Rain’s iron sword, which had already been pulled out half way, and Solar glared at him. Lian creeps closer between them.

“Let’s fight… let’s not fight… Huh? Why are you suddenly creating conflict when you proudly said that you disbanded without conflict…”

It was Mirsen who completely forgot that the incident started with Lian’s sudden confession.

And the situation ended safely with the saintess’ sincerity – seemingly – shed tears.
