Chapter 89

“I’m leaving with Alperier.” 

Charlize called for Payne the next day and said.

In response to the answer too quickly, Payne was rather confused as it was.

“With us? Really?” 

“Yeah, because I’ve been thinking about the offer.”

Suddenly Charlize’s eyes became sharp. 

“And there’s still something you haven’t told me about Ehyrit’s real piece and Kiera, right?”

Charlize was sure. 

There is still empty information. 

It’s easy for Charlize to kill Dylan, but Dylan was still able to escape from Charlize.

However, Payne seemed to think that the evil God was unconditionally dangerous to the piece of Ehyrit.

‘There must be a reason.’

For example, a real piece of Ehyrit cannot resist evil gods. 

Payne said meekly.

“Your prediction is right. Regardless of the strength of force, you will not be able to resist evil gods. I don’t know why, but…”

A young beast rubs his cheek to Charlize, saying that it is okay to kill him. A white neck that appeared as if it was okay to put a sword in it.

She knew it was love, but she was too defenseless.

It cannot be said that the instinct has not been exercised at all.

“If the evil god and the pieces of Ehyrit are separated, it doesn’t matter?”

“Huh?” 

“I asked if it was not affected by anything. According to you, if the evil god Kiera is complete, will you be tracking me down?”

At Charlize’s soft voice, Payne exclaimed, ‘Ah’.

Payne’s eyes met Charlize.

Charlize was going to fit in with their misunderstanding and make them mistake her for a real piece of Ehyrit.

“If that’s the case, then you’ll be fine…! Because the more you encounter it, the deeper the murderous intent gets.”

So it is.

‘I’ve been with Dylan for six years.’

Was it a strange affection that could cover even that? After all, she liked Dylan as the opposite sex.

“Then, shall we go now?”

“No.”

Charlize just smiled briefly and responded. 

“I have something to organize.” 

Both the children at the orphanage and Payne were the Kiera project subjects, but they didn’t have evilness like Charlize.

She felt sorry for them but envied them at the same time.

Is it a curse or a talent to be suitable for a vessel containing evil gods?

“Then I’ll pick you up five minutes after midnight today.”

Payne knew Charlize wouldn’t say empty words even after not seeing her for a while.

When he greeted her, Charlize nodded her head without saying a word and gave a light affirmation.

‘I have something to do.’

There was still plenty of time until midnight.

Dylan must have been very busy right now. There is no end to the imperial affairs that must be cared for as an emperor.

Charlize moved right away. 

There was no one to limit Charlize’s actions anyway. Even if Charlize disappeared, no one wondered.

Charlize went to the storage room, disappearing as if she would melt into the air.

All the documents from the underworld were disposed of. 

Then Charlize went to Dylan’s imperial office. While Dylan was away, she found a document that no one would ever take out.

<Ki-e-ra>

Kiera.

<The Living Sword Project>

The mana on Charlize’s fingertips burned the documents.

It disappeared into the air, leaving no ashes.

‘This will also be the end.’

Even if she burned it anyway, Dylan would remember everything. Charlize lowered her eyes. 

The reason Charlize disposed of this was because there was blood on this document. She glanced at it and buried it in her memory, but when she wanted to leave, it immediately came to consciousness.

She’s one of the subjects. Ehyrit’s evilness was buried, so she couldn’t leave it alone.

‘Even if Kiera is tracked down, evilness cannot be found out.’

It was rare for an experimental body to absorb evilness.

No, even before regression, Charlize was the only one.

Most of the time, they die and are immediately disposed of.

‘No.’ 

Maybe this will have a minor impact on Dylan. 

She didn’t want Dylan to be harmed in any way.

Although it was a vessel for evilness close to the evil god itself, it was a useless concern.

Charlize cynicism briefly.

‘Ronan doesn’t have my luggage.’ 

At the age of 15, when she entered the palace as a teacher of the royal family, she had already arranged all her luggage.

She was a grand princess, but from the beginning, she had few clothes or belongings that a young noble lady would normally have.

She doesn’t need to stop by Ronan.

‘Where should I go?’

Charlize recalled her life for a moment. 

She suffered 400 years ago, tamed Dylan after her return, removed Dietrich from the throne, and met Kahu who remembered her return. 

‘Kahu.’

Charlize’s eyes gleamed.

She should go meet him first. Next, it will be Dietrich to be left unattended after eating Ehyrit’s pieces.

Charlize was quick to act. Immediately after she decided, she acted immediately.

Kahu had participated in a meeting of nobles this morning.

And now he was working in his office in the imperial palace.

“Young Duke.” 

Charlize is called Kahu. 

Kahu, who had been busy with his work, reflexively stood up.

He seemed very surprised by Charlize, who appeared without a knock or a sign. 

“Aren’t you the grandmaster?” 

“It’s been a while.”

“What brings you here…” 

Kahu looked at Charlize.

It was the same as usual. He felt no more than that.

He just tried to remember that she was the emperor’s lover. 

He had to try not to cross the line.

Charlize, who was getting closer to Kahu, finally asked.

“Do you really remember anything about regression?”

Kahu nodded. 

It was the first story before the return. 

Kahu’s lips opened. 

“After you disappeared… the Empire has united half of the continent.”

A bloody death and piles of pine nuts left in the place where Kiera passed. The glory of the empire. Everyone praised the emperor and the guardian sword. 

The crown worn by the 5th Prince was shining. Although it belongs to Dylan, who was now the 13th Prince. 

“And I also lived and died in peace.” 

“Is that so?”

“I’ll confess, I actually can’t really remember. I do have memories of looking for you, but I decided to quit one day.”

As Kahu looked back on the past, his lips were opened.

“…I don’t remember.” 

It’s true. 

Charlize noticed. 

There’s no more information to get. This was the end. 

Kahu didn’t even think that Charlize was Kiera until the end.

That was Kahu’s luck. 

‘And you helped me.’

Charlize was not an outraged person enough to forget that grace.

She won’t kill Kahu. She had no intention of killing him. 

‘It was a miracle that you looked for me when no one was looking for me when I disappeared.’

Even though he was asked by Ronan, he had no connection with his fiance.

Charlize also remembered the past. At the engagement ceremony before the return, she was standing with Kahu during the ceremony.

An unfamiliar fiance. 

Although they didn’t even talk a few words, she was definitely grateful for his pursuit she heard from afar.

‘I will pay off that debt with this.’

Revenge was the essence of Charlize, but humanity came before her.

Because Charlize is a human being. She paid it back because she’s a human being.

“Thank you, Young duke.” 

When Charlize, who had accomplished her purpose, turned around without any regrets, Kahu paused.

It was because of the sudden feeling that he would not be able to see Charlize for a long time.

“Grandmaster.” 

Kahu tried to hold Charlize, but Charlize did not look back.

She didn’t even care. 

Charlize, who left the building, saw the sunset sky. 

She missed Dylan.

***

“To be this happy is like walking on clouds.”

Dylan said, folding his eyes.

His slightly trembling voice was filled with bliss.

A face that feels grateful to Charlize, who came to him during the hectic workday and gave him strength.

Charlize looked at Dylan and smiled.

It was just a kind and gentle smile.

She didn’t do anything else. 

She visited the emperor who was going to take care of the affairs until late, told him to have dinner for a while, and after finishing the meal, they came to see the nearby river on the island.

A dense conversation with the person you like is always right.

Even the flowing silence was not at all uncomfortable with Dylan.

He thinks he knows a little bit about what love is now.

“I’m just glad that Master opened her heart.”

“Your…” 

Suddenly, she was speechless. 

She was leaving at midnight today, but Dylan had an unsuspecting look.

‘Ah, Dylan thinks we’re getting revenge together.’

She couldn’t do that, but. Now. 

“I’m glad and happy, too, Your majesty.”

Charlize just smiled. Dylan also smiled. 

It was already night.

Charlize and Dylan walked a bit more along the river before breaking up.

She hesitated for a moment because of the warmth that wrapped around her body, but Charlize soon regained her composure.

Charlize was about to do the last thing now.

She also had a thought for Gold, the orphanage’s child, who was scared of Dylan. So she wasn’t worried. However, before leaving.

‘Dietrich I.’

She had to check the man who told them to make Kiera. The man who completed the Kiera project, which was impossible enough for the magic tower.

The late Emperor who used to handle Charlize by calling it the guardian sword.

Charlize slowly headed to the dungeon where he was locked up. She opened the door and walked down the endless stairs. Very bottom, bottom, down to the bottom.

She went through the long hallway again.

Charlize had no presence, so no prisoner noticed. Charlize had an indifferent face as she passed right in front of the prisoner.

It was just a dark prison, very barren and dirty.

In the words of a man who once reigned above all as emperor, it was miserable.

Is there any place to fall further than this?

The sun doesn’t reach the basement. There were no windows and the air was stale. It was winter, but of course, there was no heating.

Charlize did not feel cold as a Saint, but the guards were not.

They were huddling in front of the fireplace where the flames burned and had a conversation.

Charlize stopped for a moment.

“Don’t you think he’s crazy? If I go down, he keeps screaming and talking nonsense, so I’m scared.”

“Do you feel the same way? A human who was once to be an emperor… Has completely lost his mind. I got goosebumps and I can’t even get close to him.”

“What kind of person has united half the continent… What should we do? He was just saying nonsense.”

Crazy? 

Charlize’s expression turned cold as she listened to the guards’ conversation.

Dietrich ate a piece of Ehyrit. It was said that he must have been stained with evilness. 

So it was probably enough.

Because he was the late Emperor, he was locked up in a deeper underground, distinguished from other prisoners with life imprisonment.

Charlize opened the side door and walked down the stairs that appeared again.

There was only a terrible chill in the underground, and it was cold.

The temperature would have been more than enough for a normal person to freeze to death.

But Dietrich couldn’t have died even if he wanted to.

“…”

Only the late Emperor was locked up under this, so Charlize immediately faced him.

Dietrich, chained up, was a mess at first glance.

‘Crazy.’

As soon as she saw him with her own two eyes, she realized the words of the guards. The late Emperor was muttering nonsense to himself like a half-madman. He laughed out loud as if he had lost his mind, and then shouted again.

Charlize stood up. She didn’t expect much. She just had to check in their words.

But when Dietrich saw Charlize, he said with a surprised face.

“Aren’t you… Kiera?” 

It was the real identity of Charlize, whom no one knew.

Dietrich vomited blood. 

The late Emperor’s eyes widened.
