Chapter 108

Meanwhile, Charlize and Alperier.  

‘To go faster.’  

It was necessary to borrow the power of the riding beasts from Rapine. 

It was finally the promised place.  

Charlize pulled the reins and stopped the horse.

The Rapine clan was waiting in advance with the beasts.  

“My savior.”  

Rapine’s head welcomed Charlize.  

It wasn’t just the head of Rapine who bowed his head politely to Charlize.  

All the Rapines who had gathered bowed their heads to Charlize.  

Alperier’s gaze turned to Charlize. It was a look of surprise.

“Didn’t you say you’d join Ronan, leader?” 

“Ronan is bait.” 

“And they are?” 

“As you can see, it’s Rapine.” 

Charlize replied back to Payne’s question without hesitation. 

Unexpectedly, the commanders of Alperier’s corps immediately burst into cheers. 

Charlize was a little embarrassed because it was an unexpected reaction.

“Yeah! I’m glad you got rid of Ronan!”

“Good job!”  

“Since they treated our leader like that, this is a very, very cheap price.”

This time, even Charlize didn’t really know the situation.  

However, there were often times when Charlize and Alperier’s emotions did not match. 

‘Why are you laughing?’

Charlize didn’t sympathize, but. 

In any case, she could feel the affection that Alperier had for Charlize.  

Charlize turned her gaze away from the delighted Alperier and lightly jumped off her horse.  

In the darkness, only the round moon stood out.  

Charlize’s hair shone in the moonlight.

“Is it really over if I give you a ride to the border?”

“Yes.”

Chase grabbed her and asked. Charlize nodded her head softly.  

The other Alperier members also got off their horses one by one.  

‘Rapine and Alperier.’

Although the groups were different, they had the same mind to follow Charlize. 

They were no match for Charlize, but they were also transcendent people.

The gazes of the two groups were intertwined, vigilant in the air. Especially for Alperier, the smile remained, but only their eyes were cool.

Charlize’s voice broke the tension.

“It is enough to reach the border. Shadow has been blocked for a while, and it’s impossible to chase after Ronan with that force.”

“…Shadow? Are you talking about the Emperor’s elite knights?” 

Chase asked in surprise. 

Shadow and Ronan were the ones with absolute power in the Empire.

It is because Charlize speaks so indifferently. From the outside, it was a very influential and highly regarded group.  

Chase belatedly realized that the Alperiers looked at Charlize and called her ‘leader’.

‘Even Alperier is her subordinate.’

When Charlize killed the wizards, he guessed that she was a Death Knight, but it was different from witnessing it with his own eyes.  

Charlize’s movement really shook the empire.

Charlize nodded indifferently.  

The head of Rapine, who was watching, stood up and offered a magical beast to Charlize with a respectful attitude. The tamed beast knelt down in front of Charlize.  

“I hope we get along well.”  

Charlize stretched out her hand and said. 

The beast growled for a long time. It was as if he had understood what Charlize was saying.

The Alperier’s corps commanders were also assigned one by one.

Rapine’s ability was needed to drive the beast, so the Rapine clan sat on the rider’s seat.  

In Charlize’s case, it was Chase.

“Let’s go. Hold on tight.”  

Chase said. Charlize grabbed Chase’s shoulder.  

Immediately after, the beast ran out.

As expected, a beast is a beast.

The speed was so fast that it could not be compared to the horse. If someone other than Master was careless and fell to the ground, he could die immediately.

The plan went surprisingly well.  

‘Surprisingly?’  

Charlize pondered her thoughts.  

It was as if she had subconsciously wished that the plan would go awry.  

Charlize frowned.  

‘Anyway.’ 

In this country, the only Master who could pursue Charlize were those of the Ronan family.

However, as Ronan was blocking Shadow, the members were definitely safe. In addition, the speed was also faster due to Rapine’s beasts.

“Leader!”  

“?”  

“Who’s chasing you?”  

Payne, who was running from a distance, shouted. 

Charlize looked back, wondering who it was. 

And there.

Chasing alone. 

There was Dylan. 

It was a very long distance, but Saint’s eyesight was very good. How quiet and maddened Dylan’s eyes were, was evident even here.  

‘Dylan.’  

Dylan’s teeth were clenched, perhaps because he felt Charlize’s gaze touch. 

His chin is hotly interlocked. The emperor’s horse was running like crazy with a momentum that would burn its muscles.

“It’s the emperor!”  

“He can’t do anything alone anyway. No one can beat the leader.”  

The commanders exchanged conversations with each other.  

But, of course, a genius was a genius.

Dylan continued to speed up in real-time, even though it must have been his first time seeing it. 

Charlize felt a chill in the back of her neck. It was not because she thought she would lose to Dylan, but because of the afterimage left by the nights she spent with Dylan.

Because Dylan’s face, so tenacious, was the one she’d see in bed sometimes. 

Charlize also closed her lips. Beasts also have an escape instinct, so when the red horse chased after them, he ran like crazy.  

But it was a victory of persistence.  

Dylan eventually caught up with Charlize.

“Stop.”  

Charlize was eventually ordered to stop.

“Charlize.”  

Dylan’s drop-off point was in front of the Empire’s borders. Charlize and Alperier had already crossed the border.  

Dylan just called Charlize.  

She didn’t want to stop, but Charlize stopped at will. The Rapine clan followed only Charlize’s will. They faced each other with borders between them.  

Dylan said.  

“Why are you leaving me?”

“…Please go back.”

“Are you going to leave me without notice again this time?”

Dylan stood.

With serene eyes. No, with a slightly pitiful face.

“Please talk to me for five minutes.”

“…”

“Master.”  

She couldn’t be harsh to the low, warm voice as if begging. This is the last five minutes that her loved one asks for.

So Charlize remained silent.  

It’s a silent affirmation. 

“Is it because of your identity?” 

Charlize knew she shouldn’t listen, but she was listening. 

If she can, she can drive the beast right away. 

Revealing his defenselessness without hiding, Dylan was completely off the horse. The emperor is alone here without Shadow.

If it was the real rebellion that Charlize had caused by encouraging Ronan, it would have been easily accomplished to overthrow Dylan’s life with just one swing of her sword on the spot.  

Charlize stared at Dylan with his white neck exposed. She didn’t really know what emotions to mix in her gaze.  

“Why did you teach me?”  

“…To make Your Majesty as the emperor.”

Dylan smiled faintly.

“You already knew about me before you even met me.”

“…That’s right.”

Charlize did not deny it.  

“You’ve come back in time. I don’t understand how it’s possible with common sense. I’ve been pondering over that fact and constantly thinking about why you ran away.”

“Leader.”

Payne caught Charlize’s attention.  

But Charlize raised her hand, making eye contact with Dylan. Everyone meant not to meddle in this conversation.  

The commanders immediately stepped back.

“…”

There was still a border between Charlize and Dylan. It’s a small difference, but it’s just a huge gap. Charlize is no longer under the control of imperial territory. 

This is the point where Rapine’s beasts are needed.

The power of the barrier was now completely weak, so it was safe to use teleport magic.  

But Charlize paid attention to Dylan, and Dylan smiled.  

It was the same smile Dylan had when he caught Charlize’s King with his horse in the chess game.  

Just like when the Emperor defeated Charlize after a fierce brain battle.  

Charlize asked in the tense tension.  

“So, did you get an answer?”

“…Yes. Whatever your reason for running away, it is related to your essence. That’s the answer I got.”  

Dylan spoke softly. 

“You, no matter what, never touched a piece of Ehyrit. And you hated the imperial family so much that you wanted to destroy everything. I wondered why.”

Dylan looked at Charlize.

‘The identity of Charlize.’

That is.

The truth is that even Kahu, who was probably more advantageous than Dylan from the beginning, did not notice when it came to the information. But the only thing Dylan ‘didn’t know’ was that Charlize wanted it.  

When he ‘wanted to know’, everything became clear.  

After the decision to exclude common sense from Charlize, his thoughts quickly developed without being blocked.

Dylan is.

In the future that Charlize and Kahu would have shared together, he would not have been the Crown Prince.  

‘I wasn’t the emperor, either.’

Charlize’s words that taught Dylan to make him the emperor were nothing short of acknowledgment.

Now that it was different, but it was clear that Charlize from the future would have existed.

She would have suffered, frustrated, cried, and tormented thoroughly by the imperial family and the magic tower, and eventually groaned in being dull and sharp.

“Why did you do that? There is no reason to exist alone so coldly. How do you know all that? You didn’t even live that long.”

Dylan’s lips moved.

“You were strange. It was as if the magic sword had grown.”

Charlize stared at Dylan. She was still, without any change in expression.

However, Dylan was more convinced of such Charlize. 

The corners of his lips loosened softly.  

“The hide-and-seek is over, Master.”  

“…”

“Don’t you think so?” 

As Dylan read.

Unlike the calm appearance, Charlize’s inner side was infested with turbulence. 

A magic sword, because the world was shaken by that one word. 

To the point where she wonders if struck dumb is an expression that exists for this situation. Her mind went numb. Indeed, time may have stopped. Otherwise- 

“Magic Sword Kiera.” 

-Because there was no way she couldn’t breathe so much.  

It was the true identity of Charlize, who had never been discovered by anyone. And the voice that pronounces it was definitely Dylan’s.

It was Dylan wholly undeniably. A tyrant raised by Charlize, a lover of her own who is rough and gentle.

“Aren’t you Kiera?” 

Just like Dylan did before returning, his eyes were looking at the magic sword.

Being fascinated. Wary. Also admired.

This was not already a question. It is certain. The moment he noticed it. 

Charlize’s whole world was shaken by shock.
