So Miss Nier, have you thought about it yet? I think that neither you nor I have the patience to wait any longer.
Clear drops of liquid rain down from Niers legs. Niers eyes were confused and empty. When she heard a voice, she powerlessly raised her head up. A mont later, anger and hatred resurfaced in her eyes like an old machine got rebooted. She looked at the rchant standing in the distance where the handrails were. Noting how he didnt dare to co close, she sneered coldly and said, Whats wrong? How co you dared not mm co in?!
Nobody wants to co close to a cat that likes to bite people after all. The rchant smiled helplessly while touching his ear, that was now missing half of what was originally there. He looked at Nier, took in a deep breath and then continued, Why do you do this to yourself? From the standpoint of the royal family, your love is just an insignificant speck of dust thats not even worth ntioning. If you get defiled during this ti, youll get abandoned even after you resisted for so long for his sake. Why dont you give us a hand? We cant give you anything, but we can still let you off with a pure body.
I will never betray His Majesty because this is the first ti Ive felt love. Nier stared at him with anger. She chuckled coldly and continued, I didnt co here for the sake of getting together with His Majesty. I ca here to do sothing for His Majesty. Even if I lose the right to be with His Majesty, I will still protect him by his side, so you dont need to say more. Theres not even a slight chance that I will betray His Majesty. Dont go thinking that Ill just let you have your way with . I wont give you my body unless Im dead!
You sure?
The rchant looked at the water stain below Niers body and mocked her, Your body is being so honest yet youre still unwilling to admit it. I must say that His Majesty is fortunate to have such a sensitive body for himself. But do you think you can hold out until His Majesty returns? Or rather, does His Majesty have the courage to co here?
I trust His Majesty!
You trust that your master will co to your rescue when youre his bodyguard? The rchant laughed and continued, Are you not aware that youre just a pawn? And youre an abandoned child. You havent returned after such a long ti. Your empress has already abandoned you, and yet youre still having fantasies about them?! They will only betray you when they are faced with danger, not protect you! You actually believe that the prince will save you?!
He will. Nier looked at him and said with determination, His Majesty will definitely co and rescue . His Majesty is not my master, and nor am I his bodyguard. I love him, so I believe in him!
Then just wait here until you rot! Increase the dosage significantly!
Nier didnt know how much longer she could hold on. She was maintaining her fury on the surface, or rather, she was just putting on a tough act.
It was just so harsh her whole body felt like it was burning. Her legs went numb if she budged even just a little. When she saw the prison guard, she struggled to resist the urge to call him over. She didnt know why she was rubbing her own body herself. She never knew how to do this, but she had now learnt how to all on her own.
Its so harsh so harsh it really is so tough its so tough she couldnt hold on it really was too much but but she loved His Majesty. She loved him. Why did his smile beco clearer the more she broke? Why did everyone have the sa face as His Majesty? Why didnt she think about the empress and only His Majesty?
Why did she want to be held by His Majesty so badly? Why couldnt she be firr, and why did she want to cry? Why did she yearn for His Majesty to rub his body against her body? She yearned to show herself in the nude before His Majesty Was it because of the drugs or was it her own instinct? Why did she want to cry so much? Why was she so weak?
A cold liquid ran down her throat and entered her stomach again. Her vision beca blurry, and she fell onto the ground. Her numb legs felt cold once again.
Sunlight shone through the tiny window and onto her body. Her face-print was left on the basalt like the intense cold wind in winter. During her hazy monts, she returned to the past where she was by His Majestys side, where he held her hand and walked together with her outside in the cold.
But how much longer was she going to have to wait for that warm hand to return to her? Your Majesty
The cold liquid didnt just run down her legs, but also her mouth. Were they tears? Why? Why was the liquid so salty? Why was she so afraid?
I beg you Your Majesty save save
No entry into the imperial palace is permitted without permission. Please announce the purpose of your visit.
The imperial guards drew their long-spears and blocked the ssengers path causing him to tug on his horses reins. He was holding a letter in his hand. He tried to catch his breath and loudly said, Under the orders of Pope Tristan II, I have an urgent letter for your esteed prince, Prince Troy Galadriel Rosvenor!
A letter for His Highness?
The guard thought about it for a second and then moved his long spear and said, Unfortunately His Highness is not in the imperial capital. If you have a letter for him, you can leave it to us to hand it to him.
What about Her Highness?!
Her Highness has left on business too.
The ssenger paused and then anxiously said, Where is His Highness now, then? This is an urgent letter I have to deliver to him! This is his excellencys order.
His Highness headed south but were not sure exactly where he has gone to. The guards looked at him and continued, We dont have the right to ask where His Highness goes. If you want to give him a letter, go and ask for his whereabouts. But I dont think youll be able to find out, so I think its better if you just hand us the letter.
Forget it. Thank you. I must personally hand this letter to His Highness.
The ssenger didnt waste his breath. He quickly turned around and went away.
=====================
If. If. If I didnt go to Galle Village that ti and was at the palace to receive that letter, I dont think Nier wouldve been in so much danger.
Unfortunately, I wasnt there at the ti. During that ti, I was having lunch with Luna in Galle Village, trying out elven delicacies. And all of my attention was focused on trying to figure out what those rchants were plotting. I didnt know Nier was in danger or what happened on humanitys side.
In other words, the continent was in its greatest mont of crisis when you were not in the imperial capital?
The prophet poured a cup of tea. I tried to get up, but unfortunately, I couldnt. I smiled helplessly and slouched into my chair before answering, Thats right. I didnt know what happened outside, at the ti. The hazy war was brought upon onto the continent because I was at Galle Village at the ti.
Luckily it was peacefully resolved in the end. So do you regret all the things you did at Galle Village?
I looked at the water in the cup for a long ti without saying anything.
Afterwards, I felt that the prophet had fallen asleep. I said, I do. I really regret it. And its the one thing I regret most. If I didnt go to Galle Village at the ti, she wouldve been fine, and she would still be my side, always keeping company and so I regret it I regret it deeply
I tried to put strength into my old wrinkly hands, but I couldnt even cause a ripple in the water However, the rage on my face caused the fla to tremble
