Chapter 113

There was a long aftertaste after the kiss.

This was not enough for Dylan. Like a man under a curse that the more he drinks, the more thirsty he becomes.

But Dylan slowly pulled his lips apart.

Charlize blinked slowly. Her eyelashes are long.

Charlize’s eyes were reddened by the lingering kiss. For a moment, Dylan seemed to lose his mind at the terrifyingly fascinating appearance.  

“…I should have been there at that time.” 

Dylan’s voice was low.

Charlize knew why Dylan was doing this. But on the other hand, she’s weak for people who really treat her like this. Even though she knew, she couldn’t resist.

Charlize lowered her gaze and said.

“There’s something I don’t know either. I don’t know what kind of person Kahu is.”

Dylan replied, kissing the tip of Charlize’s hair.

“I don’t know why he has memories before the return, either.” 

“…” 

Charlize looked up, their eyes met. 

Yeah. Come to think of it, it’s really strange. Who is Kahu?

“It’s late, Charlize. I’ll walk you to the mansion.”

Dylan’s words interrupted the flow of her thoughts.

Charlize nodded her head.  

“Okay.”

Dylan was an emperor, but also a knight who took the Lady’s oath to Charlize. It was no wonder he wanted to escort her to the mansion. 

Of course, Charlize also made an oath of knighthood to the emperor.

‘Kahu.’

The name she brought up after a long time suddenly deepened her thoughts. The young duke had said that he saw the future in a dream.

Clearly, it was different from Charlize, who lived until the year 702 of the Empire and returned to the year 298. 

Kahu’s memories didn’t even look so clear.

“What’s the difference between you and me?”

Charlize returned to the mansion and told Dylan about Kahu. Knowing Dylan’s genius, she wondered if there was anything else he knew.

“The young duke’s memory is cut off at some point. As you know, not at all.”

“Is that so?”

“It’s strange. I thought I was definitely caught up in my fate. Because no one knew the future except for Kahu, or the young duke.”

But Dylan’s reaction was lukewarm. No. It seems rather sharp.  

“Why don’t you stop talking about Kahu, Master?”

“…?”

“He’s not the one with you right now.”

For a moment, Dylan looked close to something.

When Charlize paid attention, he smiled as faintly as before when he shed transparent tears. 

It might have been confusing in the past.

She knows for sure now.

‘You’re jealous.’

Dylan just hates Kahu. To be precise, he hated Charlize’s interest in Kahu.

After setting foot on the Empire’s lands for the first time in three years, Charlize met Ronan, but not Kahu. She knew that was Dylan’s intention. But it didn’t matter. In fact, she didn’t think much about Kahu now. 

Charlize nodded nonchalantly.

“Yes, that’s right.”

She wanted to listen to Dylan to some extent if he didn’t want to. 

Charlize is also being considered. 

As the grandmaster, the emperor listens to the word that she does not want to enter the imperial palace for the time being, ignoring all imperial etiquette.

Now, the mansion appeared slowly.

She suddenly felt sorry. She wants to stay with Dylan longer. It was an instinct-like feeling.  

“Actually, there was a present I prepared for you.”

At Dylan’s words, Charlize raised her head.

In front of the mansion, Dylan pulled out a ring box from his arms. Charlize’s expression became strange. 

Because the symbolism of the ring is large.

It is common to see a proposing man kneel down and propose.

Dylan took the ring out of the box and held it out. It was a very glamorous and beautiful ring like a formal wedding ring. A large diamond with a brilliant glow.

“What’s this?”

“Lovers share the same two rings with each other, don’t they?”

Oh, were we lovers?

Charlize thought indifferently for a moment.

Because they had a deep relationship. There are also breaks of three years. 

‘It doesn’t mean much.’

In fact, Charlize didn’t care what the definition of the relationship was. 

Dylan held Charlize’s left hand. And he put the ring on her ring finger and put it in slowly. 

It felt kind of numb.

It’s like she’s out of breath.

Charlize blinked her eyes. There was one more ring in the ring box.

“I’ll do it for you too.”

Dylan had a strange look.

The emperor was silent, and Charlize took his hand.

‘Why is it so soft and white?’

It’s hard…

But as she slowly put the ring on, Dylan’s shoulder stiffened as if he was a little nervous.  His lips were closed. 

As Charlize lifted her eyes, Dylan’s lips loosened.

Obviously, the emperor was smiling, but he seemed to be enduring something with difficulty. A drowsy, deep breath leaked from the man.

The blood vessels in the ring finger of his left hand are connected to the heart. Therefore, the ring worn on the ring finger of the left hand had the meaning of ‘love with the heart’.

Charlize experienced something a little deeper. It was similar to the feeling of each other’s souls being transferred. 

The tension she felt when she raised her head was an illusion. The salvage was scattered far and wide.

‘I’m sorry we broke up like this.’

Charlize looked at Dylan for a while and then suggested. 

“Would you like some tea?” 

“Is that okay?” 

“Of course.” 

“Of course, Charlize. I’m glad.” 

Dylan smiled transparently. 

Charlize’s left ring finger tickled. 

Her heart was beating so loud that she didn’t know it. 

*** 

The mansion was given by the emperor of the empire.

It was said that she would only be staying for a while, but since it is a mansion dedicated to the Alperiers who followed the grandmaster. The servants were nervous and worked hard.

Of course, they were the servants of the Imperial Palace. It was the first time to manage a mansion outside the palace, but the royal maids and servants were honored with the situation. 

Because the privilege to serve Charlize is only given to very competent employees.

Their attention was focused on the gate of the mansion. It was because the emperor and the grandmaster were coming in through the open door.

“Wow…” 

One of the maids involuntarily spat out an exclamation.

Because they looked like the perfect pair.

Dylan and Charlize, who laughed while holding hands with each other, looked too good together. 

Even after Dylan ascended to the throne as unmarried and entered his fourth year, none of the nobles could properly speak of national marriage.

Because they know Dylan loves Charlize only. 

As a servant, she was rude, but the maid who was watching immediately understood. 

‘The grandmaster is a person who cannot but be loved.’

The overwhelming atmosphere that she doesn’t know how to describe, fascinated and attracted people over and over again.

However, the emperor also stood out for his cruel refreshingness, comparable to Charlize.

“I have a place to go to for a while.”

“Yes, Charlize. I’ll be waiting for you in the drawing-room.”

Charlize headed to Alperier’s room.

Mary, who was nearby, looked at Charlize and bowed her head. 

“What about Alperier?”

“No one has returned, grandmaster.”

“Is that so…”

Charlize affirmed indifferently.

‘I had something to say for a moment.’

It’s not a very important matter, so it doesn’t matter. 

The day before, Charlize told them to go wherever they wanted to go. How distressing it must have been that the Alperier, who was always free, should have been held by the Emperor for a long time.

She understood that they might be late at home.

However.

‘Maybe that’s good.’

Charlize revealed her identity to Alperier.

The complete experiment of the Kiera project. 

She doesn’t know how far their shock and confusion will reach. 

But if they want to leave, she told them to leave, so they may have left. 

Charlize didn’t trust people very much.

‘Payne.’

He’ll come back even if he’s late. As long as the real piece of Ehyrit is here. Of course, she had no idea what Payne was thinking. 

After the last conversation, Payne also disappeared. When he heard about Dylan’s identity, he seemed very confused, but he was smart enough to accept reality soon.

He will try to protect Dylan thoroughly. Just like he did to Charlize.

‘I told him to do that.’

Mary waited for Charlize’s order. 

“Can you prepare dessert in the drawing-room? I would like some cakes.” 

“Yes, grandmaster.” 

Said Charlize kindly. 

Mary sincerely bowed her head.  

The conversation with Dylan over the past few days softened Charlize’s mood. 

Just like Dylan when he was a boy, when he met Charlize before and his vigilance was softened. 

‘A maid dares not judge.’

Now, the relationship between Charlize and Dylan seems to be completely reversed.

Is Mary the only one who thinks that? 

*** 

“I have something to tell you.” 

“…?”

Charlize, who was drinking tea, looked up and saw Dylan. 

Still, the ring on her finger became conscious. There was a time when she thought this wasn’t too bad. 

Dylan said slowly.

“Master may not know, but there is a secret magic tower.”  

“…The secret magic tower?”  

“Yes, because that’s where you approached me.”

With the teacup in her hand, Charlize’s atmosphere became cold.

Dylan looked at Charlize. He knows what breathes under her beautiful and elegant appearance.

‘I haven’t seen Master for three years.’

It was a time when Dylan was going crazy. The secret magic tower came to visit the emperor.

While he was listening to the secret magic tower, he finally realized it. That Charlize would never want to be in collusion between the Tower and the Imperial family and die.

So he threw the bait. He deliberately leaked information to the magic tower that the imperial family would support them with the national treasury. The place and date of the meeting between the tower and the imperial family are false.

Charlize was caught and captured by Dylan.

‘Hidden magic tower.’

That’s why Dylan didn’t regret it. But now that he had risked his life for Charlize to destroy the magic tower together.

“Even without Alperier, Master, and me, we can handle the secret magic tower in no time.”

“…That’s right.”

Dylan said slowly, breaking the silence. 

Charlize put down the teacup.

Actually, that was correct.

Evil god Kiera. A real piece of Ehyrit. The collaboration between the two is the most contradictory combination. If they work together, there is nothing they can’t accomplish in any project in the world.

Even Dylan was already the emperor who unified the continent without Kiera. 

“I left it alone because I didn’t know what kind of institution the magic tower was, but now it can be traced.” 

At Dylan’s words, Charlize sank coldly. 

Dylan also sank his face. However, the thought he had in his mind was different from the outside. 

He knows Charlize gets cold when she hears the word ‘magic tower’ but on the other hand? He was happy. 

Because, 

‘In the past, when Master collaborated with Kahu, I couldn’t stop her.’

Now Charlize works next to Dylan and with Dylan. 

That one was very good. 

Much better than when she collaborated with Kahu. Because Dylan will be a good public partner.

If he could spend time with Charlize, that would be fine for any reason.

Besides, Dylan was confident.

‘Someday, this revenge will come to an end.’

It is a hidden magic tower that is known to be very dangerous, but also exists as an independent organization within it. 

He didn’t have to be fast. Dylan’s patience was long. 

‘After it’s over.’

He’ll be able to have Charlize more fully. 

He sees Charlize biting her lips slightly. Her red lips were slightly crushed against the white teeth. 

‘Right now.’

He wants to grab a tablecloth and throw a tee set, put Charlize on top, and bury his head in her skin. Dylan momentarily suppressed his cruel impulse.

Because he had to be a good disciple and a gentlemanly lover.

“It’s just the beginning, Master.” 

The tyrant made up a soft tone. 

With a refreshing smile as if resembling an angel.

Charlize, perhaps. She would never know how wild Charlize was to Dylan now.
