Chapter 180
TL: Zimming
Does this make sense?
I pinched my cheek with a bewildered expression.
‘It hurts…’
I couldn’t believe it even though I had pinched my cheeks, so I was staring blankly at Lea and Reina who were moving away.
When I got out of my stupor, they were about to disappear completely.
‘This is not the ti.’
“Excuse !”
As I shouted, Lea and Reina looked at in surprise. Then Adrian whispered to .
“Leblaine, we better do nothing here.”
I glanced at him in surprise.
“Huh? Did you also notice that this is the past?”
Adrian is an amazing kid.
I can’t quite figure out what happened, but if it’s really from the past, it’s right to do nothing.
Because my small actions might change sothing in the future.
Especially when it cos to Lisette, I don’t know what kind of butterfly effect I will see later.
‘Sothing like this also happened every ti I regressed.’
Adrian’s fate that changed was a result of my action.
I couldn’t pinpoint the reason why Adrian’s maternal grandfather was so quiet in this life, and for that reason Adrian was not ousted from the imperial family.
‘I know for sure that changing the past is really dangerous.’
My regression always starts at the age of four. If I do sothing wrong today, I may never have been in the Dubblede family.
The reason my dad didn’t go to war with the temple until I was adopted was because there was no clear evidence that the temple was involved in Lisette’s death.
However, if Lisette is alive and Lea’s mory is not manipulated, there will be evidence that the temple was involved in this case.
Then the Empress Dowager couldn’t give to the Dubblede family who was waging a war with the temple.
In the worst case scenario, Dubblede might lose the war and perish.
‘But… I know…….’
I thought of my father, who could not sleep easily every night.
Even the way he caressed the youngest child’s shoes without anyone knowing, and the way he was so out of it on Lisette’s death anniversary
I grabbed my skirt tightly and shouted at Lea and Reina who were looking at .
“There’s a cave near here!”
“Cave? No way.”
Lea frowned.
“My sister knew this place the most, but there was no such thing like a cave.”
“No, we just got out of the cave!”
I held my hands together desperately, and Lea narrowed her eyes in disbelief. Suddenly, Reina said.
“Where is it? Please guide us.”
“Sister, do you have ti to worry about that nonsense? Lisette and the youngest child……!”
“I know, but it’s urgent.”
Reina ca up to and grabbed by the shoulder.
‘She slled like Lea…….’
Lea in the past slled different from Lea in the future.
Lea in the past slled like blood while Lea in the future slled very nice, like a sun-dried blanket.
The sweet sll ca from Reina now.
“Can you show around?”
I nodded, “Yes!”
“That way!”
I led Lea and Reina to the cave.
The two people who confird that there really was a cave took a deep breath.
“Oh my god. It’s true.….”
Lea muttered, as Reina bent her knees and set her eyes on .
“Thanks, kid.”
She took a little right and put it in my hands.
“It’s a reward.”
“You don’t need to.”
“Take it and stay here for a while. There are unidentified n on this mountain now. It’ll be dangerous if we run into them as we go down the mountain, so we have to hide.”
“Okay…….”
Reina smiled tenderly at and rushed to Lea.
“Hurry up and get Lisette.”
“Yes.”
Lea ran in a hurry.
And so ti later, I ca back with other people.
‘Cecilia!’
That was Cecilia, obviously, supporting soone alongside Lea.
As expected, mory manipulation was right. Cecilia was with them during childbirth.
‘Then the person in the robe…….’
I stared blankly at the person being supported by Lea and Cecilia.
Lisette.
The one everyone in Dubblede loves passionately, and still can’t forget.
She is Duchess of Dubblede.
***
Reina laid down the robe she was wearing on the floor and began to prepare for the childbirth.
Cecilia ca with water from a nearby river, and Lea made a bonfire and boiled water.
And after boiling the handkerchief and cloth, they boiled the fresh water again.
and Adrian also helped them. I collected dry branches for firewood, and Adrian guarded the cave with Lea, who had finished her work.
“A branch! This will keep the water from cooling, right?”
Lea nodded at my words.
“Thank you.”
“Se… no, are you the only knight in the cave?”
“Yes, and my sister are helping her give birth.”
I stood next to Adrian and glanced at them.
‘I want to see her.’
I couldn’t get a closer look at Lisette because many are helping her for childbirth. But I also wanted to see the youngest child be born in my dad’s place.
‘But what if I bring misfortune to them instead because I’m here…….’
I was touching my fingers, and I heard a small voice next to .
It was Lea’s voice.
“Thank you.”
“What?”
“About the cave…I’m sorry for the misunderstanding.”
Lea is so sweet.
She still can’t hide her friendly inner self.
“It’s fine!”
“…Yes.”
Hehe, while I was laughing, Adrian said.
“There’s soone coming.”
Lea hurriedly looked at her surroundings. Even though they were very far away, it was definitely the knights coming towards us.
“Damn it!”
Lea quickly trampled out the bonfire and turned to the cave.
“Let’s pursue them.”
Cecilia ca out with a pale face.
“There shouldn’t be any battles here. I can’t protect her while I’m helping with childbirth.”
“Then I’ll lure them, so you stay with Lisette.”
“Yes.”
“……Sister please.”
Cecilia nodded and returned to the cave. Then Lea told us.
“You run while I lure them away.”
Then she ran, clutching her scabbard. I got onto my feet.
‘What do we do?’
There are about a thousand knights. Lea handling them alone was equal to a suicide.
‘But even if I go, I can’t help her.’
I tried to use my divine power several tis to help Lisette give birth, but my mana did not accumulate at all.
It seed that I used up my divine power too much, or there was another problem.
Since I can’t use my divine power, I will only be a hindrance. Then Adrian started following Lea.
“Where are you going? Do you want to help? Can you cast magic?”
“No. But I learned swordsmanship, so it will be helpful.”
“You said we shouldn’t do anything. And you have no reason to help as well.”
“But you want to help them.”
“…Huh?”
As I opened my eyes wide, Adrian smiled slightly and patted my head.
“Then that’s good enough.”
Adrian hurriedly followed Lea.
‘That fool…’
What if he died here?
Lea will survive. But her mory is manipulated and she is seriously injured to the point where she will never be able to use Aura like in the past.
‘But Adrian…No, Adrian had a good swordsmanship skill, so if he helped her, they might not be seriously injured…’
While I was contemplating, fireflies gathered in front of , and before long they ca together to form a silhouette. It looked at and pointed in the direction where Lea and Adrian had disappeared.
“You told to go there……?”
Then it ford a mouth and it opened.
[Hurry, don’t miss this opportunity.]
The voice echoed in my head. But I hesitated.
“No way… are you a devil?”
Then the silhouette-like figure began to show itself. It had silver hair and looked very similar to Boone.
“…You are Boone’s master right?”
[That’s not important now.]
When I find out its identity, I can even hear its voice clearly.
[This is the opportunity he has arranged for you. Don’t miss it like this.]
“What… Lea will survive even if I leave it like this.”
[Really?]
What? As I widened my eyes, there was a sharp gaze in the devil’s eyes.
[Will they really survive?]
“What are you talking about?”
As I pondered over his words, I suddenly realized sothing.
‘Maybe it’s not just the past.’
“Because I ca to the past, does that an that the future in the present is already different?”
The devil laughed.
[So, live, boy, him, us…]
The demon’s voice began to be muffled again. I said, “Wait!” but the devil soon disappeared.
I couldn’t shake my doubts, but I understood. So this is it.
‘I have to move for Lea to live.’
Also, I can find out the secret between Lisette and the youngest child here. I ran quickly.
