82 65. A sick man, falls.

It's been a few years since I started living with Marianne.

No more, it was a happy day.

The Chancellor's official duties were originally solely to gain a life with Maria, but it was already a living reward for me. I was proud that there was something I could do for the people that had cheated, deceived, twitched and instigated people to live. Moreover, the Bill Council, which was drafted by the current Queen Rosa, also gave me the right to issue a bill, which is the Chancellor. Of the common people, but also of me from the lower echelons, to come up with a bill, which will be the salvation of the lower echelons of man today, reducing those who die of hunger and poverty. There was no work worth doing any more.

I have the power of immortality by special abilities, but if I could, I really wanted to dedicate myself for my country as prime minister for the rest of my life. Albert, the king and his wife, who became true friends within the course of their official duties, was told many stories, and each time he joked back, "You're safe even after my death."

I was able to manipulate even the physical age of others before gaining full use of my special abilities as Prime Minister. But that's only the age of appearance. Unlike myself, I cannot extend or shrink the life of others. While I continue to live, all my friends, Albert and my beloved Maria, will one day die before I do. But... then I wanted to burn their footprints right in front of me and be the bearer of future generations. That's what saved me from the mud, to her credit, … and above all because it makes sense for me to keep myself alive.

I also bought a house to live with Maria, assisted Albert in his official duties as king's mate in the castle, and Maria welcomes me home. It's more than enough days.

... I got engaged to her, but the marriage wasn't going. I had her locked up in the house for reasons such as her job as prime minister. I love her from the bottom of my heart. But... even though the Chancellor, he was terribly hesitant to exchange my last name and blood, which came from the lower echelons, with his innocent girlfriend. "Apart from the humanity of those in the house, Edwards is a noble home. My origins have not been made public, but I would be known to boulders if I even got married. At that time, I couldn't bear to be exposed to curiosity, not to mention her. She told me that if I didn't care, I would choose you over other human eyes, etc., but I couldn't forgive myself for humiliating her more than anyone else. Besides, I also thought that just being able to spend time with her like this was enough.

She falls ill, until then.

unexplained disease.

Difficulty breathing and constant entanglement chills.

Calling doctors from all over the country, there was no one who could figure out her illness.

Albert, the king's brother-in-law and the only friend who became more than subordinate within supporting the country together, and the queen Rosa, whom Maria and I can call friends. The two of us made it possible for her to stay in the castle in secret.

Her illness is unexplained. It was also possible to stay at home and entrust the servant with nursing care, but in case her disease came to light, because it was thought that if it spread, it would lead to misunderstandings such as infectious diseases, my position as Prime Minister, rather than inciting anxiety around her, and above all also her position and personal danger. It is clear from me and the maids who were beside her that there is no risk of infection. But what would happen if rumors spread wasn't hard to predict. Thanks to them, I was able to look at Maria while performing my duties as Chancellor in the castle.

Various therapies were attempted in the first year. But no cure worked, and the only way to stay was to look for someone with a special ability to heal a disease I've only heard rumors about. I myself am a rare special ability man. It's no surprise that there's about one special ability within this broad kingdom to heal the disease. In the name of the Queen, soldiers were unleashed beneath the castle to search for special abilities in secret. It would be nice if we were to publicly seek out special abilities to heal the disease, but then it's like saying there are seriously ill people in the royal or upper echelons. It was impossible for her safety and royal constitution. At the very least, we proposed a law on understanding special abilities throughout the country and a "Special Capabilities Application Obligation Order" at the bill council that year. But Albert and the Queen didn't even snort at the way the country has been, and when it comes to the human rights of the special abilities.

In the second year, no special abilities were found. But there were two disturbances.

The first is that the First Princess's pride has acquired a special ability of predictive ability, which is a testament to the first heir to the throne.

The second was that there were two deficiencies in the wheels of Albert's carriage, the king's mate. When I explored the causes as Prime Minister, the causes were deficiencies caused by multiple servants. It was the result of negligence in routine inspection of the carriage, incorrect designation of the position of the wheel scratches, and clutter of meaningless wheel changes without checking the position of the scratches.

At the time, the scene was chaotic because the queen abruptly descended under the castle and Albert, the king's concubine, rushed the carriage out to continue to stand. It would have been an avoided matter if one of us hadn't failed to confirm, or if the scene hadn't been a mess.

As a result, however, the carriage carrying Albert went until just before it was sent out, and it was like an eight-year-old pride who pulled it off. If she hadn't stopped, that carriage would have followed a path of collapse.

Those who did the deficiencies ordered everyone to be punished and dismissed, but it was a complete accident. But some people in the castle didn't think so.

Assassination of the King, and there were whisperers in secret. There were few in the upper echelons who did not often think of Albert, the king's mate. Naturally, his humanity is not the problem. Originally a second prince of a neighboring country who was not a man of this country, he was not well thought of by the supremacy of our country. I thought I wouldn't go down if I saw his work and behavior as a king, but there was already a demon inside me at this time.

Albert, I was wondering if you could take the opposition human on your side and push the Special Competency Application Obligation Decree in the Bill Council.

It is the Queen who ultimately has the power to make decisions. But I wonder if the Queen can't go under if many upper level humans agree.

It's crap, trying to betray a dear friend, etc. By and large, only a small part of the upper echelons are people who disagree with Albert. His nobility is known to me and to everyone in the castle. I don't think we can have that many people on our side, even if we try to spread bad rumors. I lurked inside my heart and quietly held it back.

But that didn't end there.

Dear Pride's special ability blossom made her de facto heir to the throne. And not everyone in the castle who knows her previous side-young deserters thought it was good. Many voices also reached my ears, saying that the princess was the next generation of queens and so on. That's enough that I think it's already possible to have the upper echelons of humans on my side significantly because of my disgust with her.

In addition, assistant heir to the first throne… the search for a human to be her brother-in-law. As soon as Albert, the king's mate, ordered, a man of rare special abilities and under eight years of age was found.... I've been secretly searching for someone with special abilities to heal her illness for two years. But it took less than two days to publicly unload the soldiers under the castle and find a man who should be his brother-in-law.

I know, it's hard to find certain special abilities. Instead, I guess it was because I had been secretly searching and grasping various special abilities at the feet of soldiers for two years that I was able to find special abilities that fell under my brother-in-law's conditions so quickly.... Yes, thanks to the search we did for Maria.

I realized that I had feelings similar to hatred towards Lord Pride, whom I had hardly ever met in person before. Did you just want a reason to simply apply humans on convenient terms? Or were you jealous of her, who behaved like a bystander but was easily given everything she sought?... No, I'm sure it's both.

But I was still worried. Listing her in the balls is treachery, defiling the name of Albert's daughter, a friend. And more publicly, this is a major crime that would also deserve insults, disrespect, etc. Instead of my status, I will also paint mud on Albert, the queen who left me to the prime minister, the king's concubine. Again, this kind of thing...

"Jill..."

Looking back in Maria's voice. It seemed like a lot of time had passed when I realized it. At the corner, he said he came to finish the Chancellor's business early to see how Maria was doing.

"... what is it, Maria?

Fix it immediately and smile at her. I didn't even want to disturb her with the fine dust on the hospital bed. Weak, stretching its white and thin hands to me. Because I kept falling asleep, I say I feel heavy on my hands and feet these days too. When I wrap her hands in both hands, she only turns her head toward me and speaks to me painfully disturbed in breath.

"... for my sake... no more... imposition..."

I was terribly surprised by her sad talk. Seemed to realize I was already trying to figure something out.

"... Jill,... do me one favor... I do.... Always, promise.

I moisturize my eyes and nod without hesitation at her pleading with me. I wanted to fulfill anything she wanted. She opened that mouth slowly as she smiled, thanking me for my reply.

"... if... if I die,... you are my share... properly, live...... Never...

Something broke down.

To her speaking of death… I understood once again that she was now standing in the abyss of death. Above all, that she herself is already prepared.

"It's a promise," he smiled, and I could only snort uncovered upset.

"Jill...,... I've... had enough... of it"

"I don't want to hear that word..."

Unexpectedly, block her words.

I endure all my teeth, but my tears are overflowing.

"I haven't made you happy yet.

I assure you so, I wipe my tears and mouth her forehead. Not with those lips as she seeped in tears sadly, groaned but dared to listen.

"I want you to let me hear that word after your illness has healed.... I don't want to hear it until then.

That's all I told him, and I left the place to the samurai to run away.

She dies.... I'm talking about analogy. Because her illness has little help to heal, and thus she continues to suffer every day. I can't help feeling weak.... but I couldn't really enjoy it.

I haven't been able to make her happy. That time I picked her up, I did say I promised.

It was just the days when I just received happiness.

Because she was there. I got up from those muddy days and said I'd been climbed this far. Without her, I would still be the only person to deceive people, whisper, deceive and exploit sweet words.

"Yes... if she wasn't here, I would.

The thought leaked through the hidden door and walked down the hallway of the castle.

Yes, I came all the way here because she existed. So what's wrong with me exercising my arms like I used to do again to keep her alive?

Let me try to save you. Be sure to use her, no matter what hand.

You should make full use of your current prime minister's status and rights.

She gave me this power.

All humans that can be used should be deceived, deceived and exploited.

If it weren't for her, it would have fallen, the way of life.

Exercise all the power and means I can for her.

To pick her up, I climbed down from muddy soil to the Chancellor to make her happy.

Then let's go to hell to save her now.

Happiness, a people-like way of life, a proud job, a dear friend, it's all what she gave me. If I'm going to save her, I'm going to throw it all away.

- Even small factors, if combined more than one, cause a big deal.

I walk on my chest with renewed determination. There's still a lot to do. First of all, Albert... no, we have to interact with them who are disgusted with the King's Mate.

- I think it's like that carriage.

That's not all, soldiers are not enough in secret, etc. More, we need to reach further back. In partitioning trials, there are many opportunities to meet back-run people. You can do business with them in secret and let them use the money as bait to find information on many special abilities. What, just buying goods with gold doesn't cross the line.

- Carriages with multiple factors and forced out as they were caused by cracks in the wheels and the poorly built wheels came off incessantly...

There are not many enemies of the King's Mate, but suddenly I have the right to inherit the throne and the famous First Princess of Pride… many people worry about the whereabouts of people and nations who do not often think or question her. There will be no one else who wonders by the way how much of her bad reviews have been shed.

The more evil she is, the more anti-royalty she will be and the easier it will be to incorporate the upper echelons towards me.

- And at the end of the day, we will follow the path of collapse.

It's all just for her.

I will sacrifice everything for that.
