… … My beloved daughter.
… … Don’t expect anything.
… … Don’t expect anything.
… … Don’t expect, don’t lean. That’s the secret to life.
… … Every time you say to yourself, ‘Maybe this time,’ the world will whisper to you, ‘This time too.’ Being fooled once is an experience, being fooled twice is a tragedy. But being fooled three times is a comedy.
… … My beloved daughter. you are noble Be careful not to make your life a comedy to anyone. Don’t allow yourself three chances.
… … twice. Just two wounds are enough to be remembered forever. It is said that those ancient kings commemorated their deaths in advance while they were still alive. Don’t repeat the foolishness of building a monument in the desert.
… … If you still want to entrust you to the world, daughter. Remember. You don’t lend your life to people. Don’t try to become someone’s debtor. From the beginning, give with the intention of not getting it back. Give it all.
… … Forgive people for holding a carnival over your corpse. Give your hair. Give it the finger. Give everything, from your purest sacrifice to your purest joy and purest hope. They will ravenously feast on everything you have.
… … So leave this world without leaving anything behind.
nothing.
My mother died after making such a will.
The funeral was a cremation.
6.
The basement was quiet.
“Why are you doing that?”
Only the Lady of the Silver Lily’s voice rang softly. The air was cold. The interrogated servants bled, but the three pools of blood did little to warm the cellar.
“Please punish him as the national leader of this country.”
“haha.”
The crown prince smiled faintly.
No, can that be considered a laugh? She barely raised the corners of her mouth and quivered. It was a smile that failed miserably.
As if running away, he turned his head and looked at the Inquisitor and me. [What do you think of this absurd situation?] The crown prince’s eyes said so.
“Your Royal Highness.”
But the escape failed. The Lady of the Silver Lily’s sharp voice broke the crown prince’s gaze.
“Shall I report their crimes to His Majesty’s special task force?”
The crown prince paused.
“Are you trying to follow in the footsteps of the abandoned crown prince?”
“Do you want to test how far His Majesty will forgive you?”
Threat.
The tone of voice was quiet and did not violate etiquette, but the duke’s daughter, the Lady of the Silver Lily, was clearly pushing the crown prince.
And it was a valid threat.
“eww.”
The heir to the empire trembled. Trembling, I held the sword offered by the duke’s daughter. But the crown prince’s determination stopped at holding his sword. He couldn’t even wield a sword.
“Sylvia… … ”
The crown prince let down the tip of his sword. Suddenly, he looked at us. Are you hoping that someone will come forward and stop the Lady of the Silver Lily?
“You did a neat job!”
However, the Heretic Questioner smiled brightly.
“It’s good that you involved not only His Royal Highness but also the two of us. Ah, everyone gathered here has become an accomplice and must keep their mouths shut. It’s good for His Majesty the Crown Prince that his mistake has been forgiven. “I’m glad that the princess is being punished!”
“city… , Sylvia?”
“The problem is that the princess seems to be the only one benefiting from this.”
The Heretic Questioner’s eyes lit up like an overturned moon.
“Is there any benefit to you by doing things this way? Princess. Three loyal servants of the Duke’s family die? I would even accept corporal punishment on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince. “I’m very curious about your thoughts.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. As I said, these are servants of the main family, and it is only right for me, as the daughter of the main family, to take responsibility for their mistakes… … ”
“Aha, it’s pretty! But it’s inefficient when it comes to discussion! Let’s be honest with each other for more effective discussions. Why are you willing to undergo corporal punishment on behalf of Your Majesty? “Is that the princess’s ‘love’ by any chance?”
The sound of breathing in the basement.
The golden lady and the silver lady exchanged glances for a moment.
“I am doing what I have to do as a subject. “Lady of the Golden Silk.”
A calm voice continued.
The Lady of the Silver Lily didn’t even move her eyebrows.
“It is disloyal to weigh profit and cost. “You grew up in a family on the outskirts, so you may not understand it easily.”
“In other words, are you saying you don’t expect anything in return?”
“Do you want my answer? Give up. “Whether you understand me or not has no influence on my actions.”
“Interesting… … ”
The Heretic Questioner took a deep breath. It was difficult for me to immediately guess what meaning that breath had.
Still, one thing was certain. The Heretic Questioner’s reaction was by no means what the crown prince had hoped for. The Heretic Questioner had no intention of stopping the Lady Silver Sister. The Crown Prince, who was clinging to her love, had despair on his face.
“… … please wait for a moment. miss.”
That’s why I had no choice but to open my mouth.
The Heretic Questioner tilted his head and looked at me.
“yes. butler? What is.”
“If those servants are really the culprits who instigated the assassination, then we have the right to take revenge. “It is not right to leave the punishment only to His Majesty the Crown Prince.”
My mouth felt stuffy. Turned her head. In order to overcome this politically complex incident… I concentrated on coming up with [the best policy]. I did not hesitate to use the deacon’s knowledge.
[Immersion in the character deepens.]
[Your current immersion rate is 7%.]
My tongue was dry. It’s still okay.
“… The same goes for the Lady of the Silver Lily. Because he was betrayed by his loyal servants. “I think the squires are fully qualified to be punished.”

“Hoo. in other words?”
“It just so happened that there were three servants who committed a crime. “There are three people who deserve to be punished.”
I saw servants tied to chairs.
“How about one person taking charge of each person and punishing them?”
silence.
“Anyway, the Lady of the Silver Lily will want to make us accomplices. That’s why you brought us. … It seems that His Majesty the Crown Prince is having a hard time bearing the punishment alone. “I thought it would be appropriate for the three of you to take responsibility equally.”
There was silence for a while.
“Hmm.”
The Heretic Questioner said and closed one eye.
“…….”
The Lady of the Silver Lily narrowed her brows in silence.
The crown prince’s complexion suddenly brightened.
“Right! What Sylvia’s squire said is correct. The princess was betrayed by her subordinates. Sylvia was attacked. I need to set the laws of the land straight! “Everyone has their own circumstances, so it would be better for each person to be in charge of disposal!”
“His Royal Highness. A king should not share responsibility with others—
“noisy!”
The crown prince irritatedly threw the knife at the Lady of the Silver Lily. Wow! The sheath hit the lady’s leg and bounced off.
The Lady of the Silver Lily was expressionless. It must have been hit hard enough to cause a bruise.
“If anything happens, kill me! Punish them! Punish! That’s all you know how to say! “How many people do you think I have disposed of so far!”
“It is the duty of the person who will lead this empire in the future.”
“I am not a murderer! Not a slayer! A poisonous thing. Vicious thing! If you really want to see blood, try killing him first!”
The crown prince huffed. The duke’s daughter quietly looked at the prince. Time froze.
The thin ice in the air was broken as the Lady slowly bent her waist. She picked up a knife. Hand movements continued. She held the sheath of her sword with her left hand, and the hilt of her sword with her right. Skillfully.
The Lady of the Silver Lily took out a knife.
“majesty.”
The color of the blade resembled her hair.
“Then at least give me an order.”
“Order?”
“Yes, Your Highness. You are ordering my execution. Why are you hesitating? Have you even forgotten how to order? Are you going to give up your rights as a king?”
The crown prince took a breath.
“main,”
A word that feels as if you have lost your footing.
“Kill it….”
But the Lady of the Silver Lily never stumbled.
Blood splattered.
The air in the basement split, and the heavier flesh split.
“ha.”
The Lady of the Silver Lily’s shoulders moved slightly as if she was sighing softly. That’s it. After taking one life with one sigh, the Lady of the Silver Lily looked at us.
“…….”
An ominous feeling came over me. My heart was pounding uneasily.
I realized what I felt for the Lady of the Silver Lily.
[Immersion in the character deepens.]
[Your current immersion rate is 8%.]
It is an instinctive intuition that says, “This person will one day block the path of the Lady of the Golden Silk.”
It was an obsession that I had to solve the problem in front of me.
“Ahaha. I’m becoming more and more interested in you! Well, great!”
So the immersion rate went up like crazy.
“It is difficult to leave alive the person who instigated the assassination. Please hand me the sword. I will handle the second one. Now, let’s become accomplices!”
How many people have the Heretic Questioners killed so far?
I don’t know yet, but at least it was very clear that the Heretic Questioner was not an amateur in this area.
As soon as the Heretic Questioner received the sword, “Hmm!” The execution was carried out in one blow.
There is now only one servant left.
“ah… .”
There is only one person left to preside over the punishment.
The crown prince opened his mouth and looked at the Inquisitor. He had no idea that the Heretic Questioner would carry out the execution so easily.
“Ugh… !”
And then something surprising, no, something amazing happened. The crown prince took a step back and tried to run away. Before the Lady of the Silver Lily could say anything, the Heretic Questioner said, “Ah!” The moment the sound was made, the crown prince jumped.
This was something no one expected, so the crown prince almost succeeded in running away. okay. If only I, who was behind the group, had not blocked the basement stairs.
“W-how cruel! “Who is blocking the path of a mere seed!”
“you.”
I snatched the prince’s wrist and held it. Kuuk! I made a decision and gave strength.
The crown prince tried to shake off the hand, but failed. There was a low scream. From the beginning, the other person could not compare to me in terms of grip strength.
“You… Ugh! “Can’t you let go right now!”
“It happened because of you, didn’t it?”
The voice that came out of my mouth was chilling even for me to hear. It wasn’t his usual voice.
“Even if you hadn’t instigated the assassination, this wouldn’t have happened. He goes crazy in love and commits kidnapping. That may be so. “But are you going to turn away from responsibility just because you’re crazy?”
I glared at the crown prince.
“Catch it.”
“Now, you want to catch it… what… .”
“knife. “Catch it.”
The crown prince flinched.
[Immersion in the character deepens.]
[Your current immersion rate is 9%.]
I became more immersed, but it didn’t matter. My feelings right now were the same as the deacon’s own. Anger at the cowardly escape.
I grabbed the prince’s wrist and dragged him. The prince resisted. He was struggling not to be dragged away by me. But I ignored it and took the crown prince with me.
“Hold the sword to the hilt.”
“Ugh, what a cruel thing… ! dare… !”
It didn’t want to catch it, so I forced it.
“Raise your sword straight up.”
“Let go! I ordered you to let go! Oh, is there no one?!”
I didn’t want to upload it, so I forced it.
“I can see how much you have lived your life blaming others until now. Dirty work, dirty work, work that you don’t want to touch. He would have passed it all on to the Princess of the Silver Lily. “He is the crown prince of a nation.”
“Poetry, Sylvia! Dry your seed! Please! “Sylvia!”
“Slash the sword and cut it.”
The prince’s arm strength was insignificant. He was easy to shake off.
So, I shook it off.
“ah.”
The smell of blood became stronger in the basement. The body of the servant tied to the chair slipped.
The crown prince looked in front of him with a devastated face. At the prince’s feet, the Lady of the Silver Lily slowly bent her knees. The hem of her skirt sat in a pool of her blood, staining it red.
“The head of the nation has established correct laws and regulations, which is a blessing for all people. majesty.”
“…….”
The crown prince did not answer. He turned his back without saying a word. This time I let go too.
“Please keep your heart strong and continue to follow the rules of punishment.”
The prince walked up the basement stairs with weak steps. Tap, tap… . Meanwhile, she continued to give advice to the Lady of the Silver Lily. Her voice hit the crown prince’s back and flowed quietly into her basement.
“The fate of this country and the fate of its people depend only on the attitude of His Highness the Crown Prince. Even though you may seem alone, Your Majesty is not alone. Your every action and decision has a great impact on the empire. please.”
The sound of footsteps grew distant and stopped. We were looking at the Lady of the Silver Lily who was still bowing her head.
“Be strong.”
I am.
I wanted to understand this person.
