It’s been a while. Strangely enough, there’s no sense of crisis.
If you indulge in a peaceful daily life here, you will forget the fact that it was a time limit.
Perhaps because there is no particular pain.
Or because this daily life has become too obvious.
Lupetic disease has not yet found a cause or cure.
“If I die like in my previous life, then I’ll die.”
Still.
Charlotte looked up at the void.
“At least I won’t be alone like that time.”
Charlotte smiled quietly.
Then.
A single call arrived. There was no sender or origin.
[Soon it ends]Three short letters.
[Charlotte.]It seemed like someone’s voice was heard.
(This is a time delimiter.)
Everyone thought Benjamin would be dethroned.
The crown prince could not blend into the imperial palace. He floated on the surface like oil on water.
His support was also minimal,
The crown prince held his breath quietly even while losing his birth mother and having his arms and legs broken.
Such a structure was overturned in just five years.
The dethroned crown prince ascended the throne.
“The crown prince and all his forces have been handled.”
From the dethroned position, he cut the necks of his halfbrother and relatives.
His coolness pushed even those around him to feel creepy.
“How funny it is that this country is still called a country, that someone must keep it alive by attaching a life thread. If you look at the state of the country now, the founding king would pull out his sword from his grave.”
Benjamin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand.
Waiting to be dethroned was a matter of justification.
They all had to strangle his neck,
So that the empress and the former emperor’s relatives, central elders, and major representatives become the justification to drag them all into the grave at once.
Getting rid of one will never end.
To get rid of everyone, Benjamin had to bury himself in a grave,
He had to wait for them to crawl in.
“What are you thinking?”
“The tip of the sword feels unusually heavy.”
“Ah, the blade seems dull. I will give you my sword. Now it’s time to finish this. Let’s move on.”
Benjamin took slow steps. It was a dignified stride without any haste.
“I’ll take you to the dethroned palace.”
The dethroned palace was a place where the imperial family was temporarily exiled and imprisoned when they committed a crime.
It’s all over.
Roskella glanced at her lord.
His stride was monotonous. There’s no disturbance at all. Only a little blood splashed on his lapel.
He maintained a neat appearance from the beginning.
His black hair fluttered as he moved.
“The empress poisoned herself.”
“……”
“She had poison prepared.”
Empress Lilliana took her own life.
Benjamin opened the door to the dethroned palace.
A delicate female body lay on the floor.
“She’s dead.”
“I specifically ordered her to be kept alive, but……”
“Who would know about the poison she had hidden?”
Lilliana died just like that. She really died quietly. Her expression was also peaceful.
“Hiccup!”
The chief attendant crushed his buttocks to the ground.
Benjamin looked down at the dazed chief attendant and asked.
“Are those dead ones your masters who you should serve?”
“Em… Emperor, I am here to see Your Majesty! I am a body loyal to the imperial family, and the owner of this imperial palace is my master.”
Benjamin’s eyes quietly closed.
‘What are you doing! Burn the dowager empress’s body and hang it at the execution ground!’
‘Keep a close watch on the crown prince. Watch him properly so he doesn’t mess around!’
‘Move the former emperor’s tomb. That damned old man keeps appearing in my dreams. It’s said that the old man comes out of his grave!’
‘Listen carefully to my story from now on. I, ah……. Even if you ask about the sins of this sinner, please listen to my story. Your Highness, be careful of the empress. She has something. I could not resist. I was unable to resist.’
Benjamin was weary and a bit tired.
The sharply honed blade cut his enemy, and also his own palm.
Over time, he felt something wearing away.
He dominated people with fear,
And the citizens of the empire felt a mix of reverence and rejection, respecting him while keeping their distance.
There was a distance that his presence created.
[Dash] Suddenly.A container filled with the belongings of dead sinners was placed in reality.
Benjamin Visennov drove the nobles into a snake pit.
He seemed to be scanning for what would be imprisoned in that container next.
“Will you remain as a dog of the dead or as a human? If you will remain as a dog, then remain as a dog, if you will remain as a human, then remain as a human. You choose.”
(This is a time separator.)
The dethroned crown prince ascended to the throne.
He killed his halfbrother and relatives.
(This is a time separator.)
“It seems that a memorial service for the dead will be held in the capital.”
The memorial service honoring the spirits of the dead will be held in the royal palace.
“Her Majesty will attend in person.”
A maidservant spoke, caressing Charlotte’s hair.
Charlotte’s fingertips paused. Had this happened in a previous life? The story of the memorial service was new to her…
“The timing coincides with Mother’s memorial day.”
“I will pray as well.”
Charlotte took a calming breath. If her breath trembles, her heart will be disturbed.
She closed her eyes. Why were tears flowing while listening to that story?
Charlotte was alone in doing so when someone knocked at the door.
“Ah, Miss!”
The maidservant frantically sought Charlotte.
“You’ve heard everything, so you can lower your voice.”
“That’s not it…!”
The maidservant shook Charlotte’s shoulder.
“He’s here to pick you up, Charl.”
Aster looked down at Charlotte, leaning against the wall.
Leaning against the wall, Aster gave a signal by knocking on the door with the back of his hand.
It was a reunion after five years. It was a long wait and a long parting.
“Are you crying?”
“…….”
“Who made you cry?”
What’s wrong with our child? Aster asked, but the maidservant had nothing to say.
“What were you talking about?”
“Ah, we were discussing the upcoming memorial service in the capital.”
“Now that the chaos is over, we must comfort the dead.”
“Miss has a sensitive part, it seems.”
Hearing about the memorial service and being disturbed, Charlotte regained her composure as if nothing had happened.
The maidservant looked down at her mistress and smiled.
“It seems that he said he would return to the capital soon.”
“What to do with this fragile child. A child remains a child even with age.”
Charlotte felt somewhat stunned.
To hear that I am still a child at this age.
