Princess Mia is Angry!
“That’s so sudden, Princess Mia.”
Sion thinks about the question he never thought of.
I didn’t think about that possibility, but …
The hesitation was only montary, then Sion said.
“If Prince Abel took part in the crackdown on the people and wielded his sword … well, I might have to point his sword at him.”
It was Sion’s unwavering belief. He was raised as a prince of the great Kingdom of Sunkland. Since an early age, he has been raised with justice. He can’t leave the evildoer in front of him.
But Mia has not finished her line of questioning…
“So, depending on the circumstance, you think you might kill Prince Abel, Prince Sion”
Sion couldn’t answer imdiately. He didn’t have such a deep relationship with Abel Remno. Nonetheless, their days at St. Noel’s Academy cultivated in Sion a feeling that it would be safe to call Abel his friend. Is it possible for him to kill Abel?
Sion replies, even though he is shaken by a small hesitation.
“That’s right. It may happen.”
Then he added sothing like an excuse, which is unusual for him.
“But I would do it because it is unavoidable… there is nothing I can do about it.”
To give appropriate judgnt to those who have done evil. It is the duty of the royal family to rule the country to maintain justice. It is a rule that governs even Sion himself. A rule he has been taught since childhood.
“It can’t be helped; you can’t do anything … Is that really the case?”
But Mia… the girl in front of her, called the wisdom of the empire, called out his doubt.
“Are you going to say that I am wrong?”
Sion’s voice asking was firm. For a mont he thought that perhaps Mia was saying this through the lenses of love… that she was personally trying to protect Abel.
But then…
No, it’s not.
Sion denies imdiately. He noticed the light in Mia’s eyes. What was there was neither a tingling color of love nor asking for pity… What was there was anger!… The wisdom of the empire was angry at Sion’s words.
“Your words should only be said after you have tried everything in your power to avoid violence. Am I not right, Prince Sion?”
Sion gasped at Mia’s piercing gaze. Her gaze saw through his doubts, his virtues, his soul…
There is no choice but to judge the other party. Condemn if the other person has done evil. Mia questioned the values that Sion took for granted.
It seed as if she was asking him, “Then, you… you say it can’t be helped… But what kind of efforts did you make to prevent the other person from doing evil?”
Sion was not unaware of the plight of the Kingdom of Remno. Even during the sumr vacation, he was constantly updated by intelligence officers hiding in the Kingdom of Remno, and he felt a disturbing atmosphere in that kingdom. Alternatively, he was prepared that his country might have a military intervention.
But that’s it. He didn’t do anything else. He did not work to keep the people from suffering All he did was spitting out words of justice that condemned them for suffering.
Does he have then the qualification to condemn Prince Abel? He who knew about the sufferings but did nothing? A big hesitation was erging in Sion’s heart.
At the sa ti, A new question was erging in his heart.
Princess Mia is heading to Prince Abel, maybe it is not just because she wants to et him and rescue him… Is she trying to prevent him from doing evil?
He continued following the logic of his own hypothesis. That is…
Does this an that she is trying to stop the revolution that is happening in Remno Kingdom? Is that even possible?
Sion looked at Mia who was gazing at the fire. She said nothing. However, her silence after the words she said echoed in his mind. While he was great disturbed, there also arose in him a deep sense on awe for the princess.
Well, needless to say, Mia doesn’t have any plans to stop the revolution. She didn’t know about Sion’s beliefs or crazy expectations!
So, what was it that made Mia angry …?
You had no choice? That’s your excuse for what you did to ?!
This is her source of anger. Indeed, the Tearmoon Empire at that ti was in a terrible situation. The people had a reason to resent the imperial family and the prestigious nobles. And she could accept the criticisms of other countries.
But… There is sothing that Mia cannot tolerate.
I died because you could not be bothered to warn that I was getting into trouble! You knew what was happening and did not help, and only ca to drop the guillotine!
They were attending the sa school, and at least a word of caution could have been said, like, “Your attitude is not good!” If he said sothing, maybe sothing could have changed. When it was too late, he ca dashingly and said, “I have no choice but to condemn! It’s a consequence for your own actions!”
I hate this guy after all! I take back all the good things I said about him.
Mia gets so angry that it took almost everything in her to stop herself from gnashing her teeth. In her mind was all sorts of feelings and thoughts: anger, frustration… etc.
The only thing that is not on her mind is the plan on what they should be doing tomorrow.
