Episode 94. < Villainous role. (1) >
——————=
One.
Is there anyone who respects you as much as I do?
Is there anyone who cared for you as much as I did?
Have you seen a gaze more urgent than mine?
Have you ever felt a hand softer than mine?
There won’t be. There wouldn’t have been any.
I will make sure there is no such thing.
2.
Ugh-hohohoho!
Romantic laughter echoed in the garden.
The crown prince, who was met with laughter, had a completely tearful expression on his face.
“Oh, Sylvia… ?”
“Ohhohoho! Please speak, Your Majesty the Crown Prince!”
“Isn’t your smile a bit frivolous? Mu, of course your voice is like a baby bird. No matter how you chirp, it sounds like music to my ears. Still, if you think about the respect of nobles… .”
“Oh-hohohohoho! “I am very satisfied with this smile!”
“Yeah, really?”
The crown prince muttered shakily.
“I-I see… . I see… . no. If you listen carefully, it seems okay. hmm… . Umm. hmm! Okay. Very good! So beautiful. “Today I discovered your new charm.”
uh. Have you seen this ramen noodle sari?
Still, your love for the Lady of the Golden Silk doesn’t cool down? All the students watching around me have cold, salty eyes?
-It’s a zombie.
Bae Hu-ryeong, who had been quiet for a while after entering the Apocalypse, opened his mouth.
-I just watched you play this time. And I tried not to interfere as much as possible. I’m so frustrated that I can’t watch it anymore. Hey, aren’t you misunderstanding something?
‘A delusion? ‘What kind of illusion is this?’
-You think it’s easier to break love than to make it happen, right?
‘yes.’
-I’m sorry, but… … It’s Kebake.
Bae Hu-ryeong said. This is the facial expression of a mountain gorilla who reigned as a prince in the jungle but was suddenly trapped in a zoo.
‘Kebake?’
-ok. As always, you exude a strong maternal instinct, but love takes a slightly different form for each person you love. Kid. There is a love that cannot be cut no matter how hard you try to cut it out with scissors. I think that guy called the crown prince is like that… … .
Before Bae Hu-ryeong finished speaking, the crown prince opened his mouth.
“Sylvia! You truly shine colorfully like a kaleidoscope. If it fell yesterday as snowflakes, it will bloom as plum blossoms today. So, is a person’s smile determined from birth? Was the laughter of nobles regulated by law? I, too, will try to change my smile at this time. Mhahahaha!”
That crazy guy?
And in the garden, an amazing duet song spread high into the sky.
“Oh ho ho!”
“Mmm haha!”
“Oh-hohohoho!”
“Mmhahahaha!”
The couple of the century was born there.
I was speechless.
‘S-what on earth is love…? ?’
It’s shocking.
-You’ve been alone since birth. I don’t know about romantic feelings, but I’ll do my best to solve the twisted relationship between those kids.
Bae Hu-ryeong clicked his tongue.
-There are people who abandon their country in order to impress their loved ones. I liked the idea of going rogue and preventing immersion, but it’s not enough to destroy love. cancer. It might not be enough.
Wow, Bae Hu-ryeong suddenly started to look like an adult. Could it be that I have a sense of entitlement because I am a soloist? To this mountain gorilla?
Isn’t that too insulting to one’s pride?
“……..”
Step by step.
I stood between the crown prince and the Inquisitor. As if to look at this place. The crown prince, who witnessed this, naturally frowned.
“you… .”
“The Lady of the Golden Silk said she trusts me the most.”
ruler. Let’s see if your love cools down even after this.
“Your Majesty the Crown Prince is noble. I am lowly. However, your Majesty is far away, and I am always by your side. Your family is my home, and your life is the life I will serve. majesty.”
“Kyaaa!” in the garden. A scream rang out. It was the voice of the ladies watching us.
-no. hey. crazy. hey. hey!
Bae Hu-ryeong shouted urgently.
-You idiot! Ah, you son of a bitch! He really doesn’t know the equation of love! He is the crown prince of an empire, so his pride must be so strong! If you do that, the crown prince will become even more jealous… … !
“her!”
The crown prince gritted his teeth.
“You lingered around the lady under the pretense of being her butler, and you were so arrogant. good night. Then I too will help Sylvia! “I will take care of Sylvia when she is at the academy, so you can go back home on your own.”
no.
You are the crown prince of a nation!
Are you really crazy because you say you’re crazy in love?
“Ughhohohoho!”
Mr. Heretic Questioner. You’re out of your mind now, so let’s stop laughing.

“—What on earth is going on now?”
It was that time. The students’ murmuring stopped.
Just for a little while. The commotion quieted down for what seemed like a second. The silence lasted only a second, but it was enough.
The ladies and nobles of noble families bowed their heads and got out of the way.
“… … Lady of the Duke of the Silver Lily.”
Only the crown prince looked on with a frown.
There, a young lady with moonlight on her head was walking.
3.
“I heard you submitted a sick leave this morning.”
The crown prince said.
“So I thought you would miss school today, but is your body feeling better again? her. “It seems that the lady’s heart is truly a troublemaker.”
“…….”
The Lady of the Silver Lily did not answer right away. Instead, I took a quick look at the audience.
I flinch.
When our eyes met, the students bowed their heads. These were students who had been agitated by the royal family’s scandal. Only after they froze did the Lady of the Silver Lily open her lips.
“Are you at peace? “Thanks to your concern, I was at peace last night.”
“… is it? Thank goodness. You spend half the year sick, so days like today will be precious. “It’s a sunny spring day, so enjoy a leisurely walk.”
A cold face.
[Enjoy a walk] had the same meaning as [Get away from here]. The crown prince was so desperately clinging to the Lady of the Golden Silk, but he was harsh towards the Lady of the Silver Lily.
It was perhaps a little strangely crude.
‘No matter how royal the family, it would be difficult to treat the dukedom too harshly… ?’
However, the Lady of the Silver Lily remained calm.
“Walking is nice. Even if the spring wind gets a little harsher here, the magnolia leaves fall. “I’m worried that if I enjoy it alone, the flowers will get lonely too.”
Unlike how she struggled at the ball last night, the Lady of the Silver Lily rolled her tongue smoothly.
“majesty. Don’t get dusty in such a noisy place. “How about taking a walk with me and comforting spring?”
“under. why me… … ”
“The Baroness of the Golden Silk.”
The Lady of the Silver Lily looked at the Heretic Questioner.
“Let’s take a walk together, too.”
The crown prince kept his mouth shut.
All eyes around were focused on the Heretic Questioner.
“Hmm.”
The Heretic Questioner fanned his fan and glanced back at me.
‘What should I do. ‘Death King.’ The eyes are speaking. ‘Would it be better for me to follow you?’ Eyes that will completely obey my judgment.
Will it be okay?
Lady Eunsamae and the crown prince. Both are dangerous. Just being with those two deepens our immersion. The Heretic Questioner becomes closer to the Lady of the Golden Silk, and I become closer to the butler.
It’s that dangerous, but nothing will be solved if you stay still.
“…What is your immersion rate now?”
I whispered in a voice that only the Heretic Questioner could hear.
“Did you go up?”
“yes. “It went up a little bit.”
The Heretic Questioner answered in a whisper.
“My immersion rate is currently at 17%. Ah, it went up by 1% while I was listening to the Crown Prince talk to me. After seeing the Lady of the Silver Lily, it went up by another 1%. It’s up a total of 2% since yesterday.”
2%.
Compared to the crazy surge last night, the speed of immersion has definitely slowed down. Should you take the risk and enter the tiger’s den now? If not now, when would be the right time?
I looked into the Inquisitor’s eyes.
“When spring comes?”
The Heretic Questioner smiled brightly.
“Magnolia is falling, Death King.”
okay.
My decision has been made.
“great. “Let me follow you, young lady.”
“I trust your judgment. butler.”
The Heretic Questioner folded his fan.
“Oh-ho-ho-ho! The Princess of the Silver Lily herself invites me to take a walk, so I can’t refuse. “I would be happy to receive your invitation!”
The Lady of the Silver Lily frowned. And then he lightly turned his back.
“Follow me quietly.”
4.
The place she took us was the lodging. Perhaps due to the family’s great prestige, the Lady of the Silver Lily did not stay in the dormitory. We stayed and stayed in an isolated villa, as if we were staying at a villa.
“Are you saying we should [take a walk] here?”
The crown prince, who was half-forced to follow, grumbled.
The Lady of the Silver Lily’s dormitory is extravagant for a place where students stay, but that’s it. The crown prince is a man who grew up in the imperial palace. I don’t think I was thrilled by this extravagance.
“Is that possible?”
The Lady of the Silver Lily walked away, speaking without any hesitation. Tatak. Tatak. The lady’s shoes made a sound as they hit the hallway.
“Going for a walk was an excuse.”
“what?”
“There were a lot of eyes watching the garden. I couldn’t tell the truth as it is. “Because it requires secrecy.”
“… secret?”
“yes.”
Tatak.
“It is about dealing with assassins who dare to invade the cradle of nobles. majesty. “You can’t just say it out loud and let the public sentiment waver.”
“…….”
The crown prince kept his mouth shut.
My guess is that the person who hired the assassin was the crown prince. Maybe it was her mood, but the Lady of the Silver Lily’s calm tone seemed to say, “I already know what you did.”
“… Does this mean you caught the culprit? I haven’t figured out the direction of the investigation yet. “How could you?”
“The Lady of the Golden Silk’s attendant gave me a clue.”
Tatak.
“I kicked the Lady of the Golden Silk and her squire from the ball last night. It was an overreaction. However, I only told them to kick them out of the ballroom, and I never ordered them to be locked up anywhere. “It appears that some of my subordinates may have had evil intentions.”
The Duke’s daughter’s quarters had a staircase leading to the basement. Standing in front of him, the Lady of the Silver Lily looked back.
The face was expressionless.
“Shall we go down, Your Highness?”
“… … I can’t see any servants. Strange. “Where have the duke’s servants retreated?”
“Are you concerned? I guess so. “I will take the lead.”
The Lady of the Silver Lily went down the stairs without being asked any questions. Suddenly, the sound of the Lady of the Silver Lily’s footsteps penetrated into the basement. Tatak. Ttabak… . The Lady of the Silver Lily was buried in the darkness of the underground stairs.
The crown prince swallowed his saliva and went down the stairs.
We followed suit.
As I went down the stairs, something became darker. Something that has become overly familiar to my nose and my life. It’s the smell of blood. The Inquisitor and I were not embarrassed, but the Crown Prince walking ahead of us had his shoulders twitching.
“—I apologize for having to serve you in such a squalid place. “His Royal Highness.”
In the basement, three humans were tied to chairs.
All three of them were servants of the duke I saw briefly last night,
“These are the people behind the assassins who attacked the Lady of the Golden Silk.”
All three were soaked in blood.
“…….”
The crown prince’s hands trembled.
Even I furrowed my eyebrows a little. Among these, the only people whose expressions did not change before and after coming down the stairs were the Heretic Questioner and the Lady of the Silver Lily.
It is understandable that the Heretic Questioner was calm. He is the guild leader of the Pantheon who carried out countless tortures and interrogations in the tower.
However, the other person is the daughter of a duke. It resembled moonlight, so it looked like it was going to stumble and fall at any moment, and it looked weak. She stood as if she was very familiar with this place.
“This is the result of my research all night yesterday.”
And then I remembered.
“It turned out that they committed the crime simply out of personal revenge.”
The lady in front of me is the person who will destroy this world.
“personal… “Vengeance?”
“yes. Would you like to hear it?”
The Lady of the Silver Lily grabbed one of the servants by the hair. “Ahh!” The servant opened his eyes in pain. His right eye wouldn’t open. The servant looked at us with only his left eye.
“His Majesty the Crown Prince came by. “Be polite.”
“Miss, wow… … Miss… … ”
“You teamed up with your colleagues and hired an assassin. It was aimed at the Lady of the Golden Silk. “Please tell the truth to His Majesty the Crown Prince why he attempted to take the life of the Lady of the Golden Silk.”
“miss… miss… … ”
“If you tell the truth, your family will not be harmed.”
this person.
“Well, the Lady of the Golden Silk… The daughter of a lowly suburban baron dared to hit His Highness the Crown Prince without knowing the subject… … Ah, the young lady is the rightful person of His Highness the Crown Prince… Yes, you are my fiancee. “She did that a long time ago.”
Dangerous.
“That was because the baron’s wife made a mess… I’m angry and angry… Stop, I did something stupid. I apologize. I’m sorry, lady. I’m sorry, Your Majesty… … ”
“Is there someone else who ordered you to hire an assassin?”
“Uh, none. There is no such thing behind it… … ”
no.
“Are you saying it was just the three of you doing this?”
It is false testimony.
“yes… Yes, Miss.. Yes… .”
To protect the crown prince.
“Is that really true?”
“There is no doubt… … ”
“okay. “I see.”
In order to protect the crown prince of this country, the Lady of the Silver Lily deliberately created a [false testimony].
I could guess that she kissed three people, fabricated an alibi, and completely manipulated all the evidence.
The fact that they were [the crown prince’s liaisons] will never be revealed.
The crown prince was [behind] the two of us being locked in the warehouse.
So, when the two of us were in danger, he intervened and tried to [act like a hero].
The Lady of the Silver Lily intends to bury the whole truth underground.
None other than the crown prince.
For the man who will be hit hardest when the truth comes out.
“majesty.”
The Lady of the Silver Lily raised her head and looked at the crown prince.
“Punish me.”
The crown prince flinched.
“Punish me… … ”
“These are the people who tried to kill the Lady of the Golden Silk, whom Your Majesty holds dear. These are criminals who invaded the cradle of nobles. You deserve to be punished, and you can be punished. “Your Majesty is currently the head of this country.”
“…….”
“Why are you hesitating?”
“Maybe,” the Lady of the Silver Lily opened her lips.
“Is there a different truth lurking in this case than what I investigated?”
“…….”
“I am telling you this not as a student of this academy, but as someone who will be your subject. The national treasure. If the investigation of the conviction is insufficient, please postpone the punishment. “As the matter is serious, I will send a message to His Majesty’s special mission.”
His Majesty’s Special Forces.
As soon as I heard those words, the memory of ‘Deacon’ came back.
They are one-person underground and hunting dogs that do not obey their own name. Composed of the empire’s best prosecutors and magicians, they are granted absolute independent investigative rights.
The reason why the current crown prince was able to take over the throne was because they ate up the former crown prince who committed corruption.
“However, if you are satisfied with Soshin’s investigation, there will be no need to bother with the matter.”
The Lady of the Silver Lily bowed.
There was a sword lying on the basement floor that looked like it had been prepared in advance.
“Punish me right here,”
The Lady of the Silver Lily rolled up her sleeves with familiar movements.
The arms that were exposed like that were full of countless scars.
“To me, who failed to properly manage the family servants.”
Countless scars from being stabbed, cut, scratched, torn, beaten, and bruised were eating away at the Duke’s daughter’s arms, which were originally as white as lilies. No, not just both arms. Judging by the long gash on the shoulder, as if an earthworm had been ripped out of its burrow, I could tell that its entire body must have been completely destroyed.
The Lady of the Silver Lily lowered her head and whispered.
“Please punish me.”
Silver lily.
The villainous daughter of this world, evil love.
“As always, I will bear the blame.”
The crown prince trembled.
