Chapter 437: The Emperor’s Daughter 437
I was confused.
Once I reached my room, I kept myself in there and stayed like that; I had to understand my feelings first. Assisi wanted to look after the children and the mother. I brought them over to treat them, but I wasn’t feeling good about it.
Of course, it was a moral thing for anyone to save the weak and heal those who were unjustly victims of violence, but I didn’t have the energy to put my heart into those principles.
I didn’t understand what had happened.
I was just confused because I couldn’t figure out Assisi’s reason for such a reaction. No, it was scary as if I didn’t even know who Assisi was; it felt like the man who used to sit quietly with had died.
What the hell was that? It wasn’t the reaction of soone who saw sothing unfair happen. It was more like a freshly opened wound.
I didn’t know. I was confused because I couldn’t figure out why Assisi had such a reaction.
While he was called the Black Knight, he killed everyone, regardless of who it was, as if his father gave the command. It was the sa for won or children. Since he was so used to seeing violence, he wouldn’t even blink an eye even if any violent acts happened nearby. He used to be casual, no matter what was being done.
Sothing switched in him. I was confused because I didn’t know why.
“Assisi.”
Assisi raised his head as I called his na.
The gaze I encountered was silent.
Assisi’s golden-green eyes were as impressive as ever. I always thought they were pretty, but now, I was scared to look into them.
“Can I ask what happened to you out there? I really can’t get my head around that situation.”
The first rule of all the guardian knights was that no one would move without orders from their masters.
Even if the orders were given, the safety of their masters had to be their top priority, and they would never leave their side. That was why any mber of a royal family would have 2 to 3 guardians with them; unless there was a select reason, the guard would be the first to die.
Assisi had been like that till now since I ran away from ho. He loosened up a little and wandered with ease.
“Assisi.”
Things had changed. Although I hadn’t given any order, Assisi moved. Of course, I didn’t want to stop it. I just wanted to know why Assisi did that.
“Is it so difficult to answer? Can you give a simple reason?”
“I am sorry.”
That was his only answer after a long silence.
An apology instead of a reason offended a little. I didn’t want to hear that right now.
“What are you sorry about?”
“I am sorry.”
No, what the hell is he...
“Assisi.”
“I will take responsibility for my actions. If sothing happened on the trip, I would take responsibility for that too. Whatever punishnt Ria would give , I will accept it.”
I wanted to understand his reason, not to be angry at him. I didn’t even think of punishing him. The principle of a guardian knight was simple, and not all knights had to live like that, so it could be tolerated.
However, Assisi, bowing his head even if he didn’t do anything wrong, was incomprehensible. I wanted an explanation, but Assisi decided to be ridiculous instead.
“So you can’t tell your reason?”
Assisi looked down. It had been a long ti since I saw Assisi bowing his head that way.
“Assisi!”
I thought that I should understand, but I couldn’t help but feel sorry. It was because situations like that could co again; I needed to know the reason. Couldn’t he talk to ?
Right now, it seed wrong. He was confused and flustered.
“Ria.”
Valer entered after opening the door and looked at .
“Stop it.”
“Who told you to co in?”
They should stop doing things on their own accord. I never told Valer it was okay to enter my room, but Valer ca over and grabbed my hand anyway. What was he doing?
“Co, co, co with .”
“Let go of ! I haven’t finished talking yet!”
I still had a lot to say to him!
I refused and tried not to move, but Valer was also a knight. He quickly pulled out. I felt exhausted, fighting him and trying to pull myself away. Damn, rotten knights!
“Ria.”
“What?”
“Just leave that alone.”
No, it wasn’t like I did sothing wrong.
“Leave what alone?”
“Uncle must have had a reason for doing that. Okay? Calm down.”
I wasn’t angry, just frustrated. Ugh, it was crazy.
I didn’t like it. Why were they treating as so kind of a narrow-minded person? I could try to understand his reason too!
Not this one. I just wanted to know his reason, so tell ! I didn’t like the ‘Just because’ or an ‘Oh, that is right’ answers. Those were not the answers I wanted at all.
What was it? I felt wounded to be kept from the reason.
“Can’t you just act like you didn’t see that?”
I was out of words at his answer. Pretending not to know? Was I drunk or sothing? I had no idea what was happening.
I wanted to pull my hair out. No, turn bald while scratching it out. I was being mistreated.
No, what was I doing? What would he do if he spoke the truth? Did soone threaten him?
“Move away.”
Honestly, my words lacked confidence, and I gave up on the issue. As I turned away, Valer tapped my shoulder.
Ah, what now!
“By the way, what are we to do with the kids?”
Valer pointed to the kids Assisi brought. I sighed, looking at the children.
No matter how pissed I was at the situation, I had to fix it.
