Boundless Necromancer

285. Hope (3)

I was curious.

Why did the prince in front of him want to commit suicide?

And how could they continue to ridicule me for taming the black dragon?

If you really don’t want to commit suicide, it’s normal to not be

able to do this.

‘Otherwise, I can’t understand being so arrogant.’

His words and actions gradually increase in intensity as he rolls his tongue as if he is going to cross the line slightly.

At least this isn’t something I would do for taming one of the world’s guardians.

So at least I thought there would be a separate corner to believe.

By the way…

“…Now, you asked me if you want to kill yourself, so you’re saying you’re going to kill me?”

Could it be that you didn’t expect things to get so bad all at once?

Glioth asked the question with a pale complexion.

It was as if he wanted someone to tell him that what he heard was a lie.

But I answered yes to his question without hesitation.

“So what?”

“…I am the prince of the empire. Although my younger sister is also a princess. To say that I am close to the current right of succession—”

“So?”

“?”

“What does that have to do with the prince wanting to commit suicide?”

“….”

I think you’re still misunderstanding something…

“If you really want to commit suicide, you can play your tongue some more.”

No matter who the opponent was, I had no intention of stopping.

The prince closest to the right of succession in the empire?

Since the iron-blooded monarch is far from the right of succession, it seems that he is no different from the next emperor…

That’s why it’s hard to understand even a little bit.

“Do you still feel like you want to tell me something?”

It was worth it.

Anyway, wouldn’t the prince or whatever die the same if his head was crushed right here?

If that happened, Glioth’s level of confidence would be useless.

And Glioth seemed to have finally realized that fact.

“…heh heh. crazy man. How can you think of killing a country’s prince—”

Glio’s body trembled like an aspen tree, and the words continued…

“So.”

That was only for a moment.

“Are you sure you want to commit suicide?”

I didn’t want to waste time needlessly, so I smiled at Glioth.

“I think you can just say that clearly.”

and.

“I want to buy and buy…”

“That’s it.”

Confirming Glio’s will to live, I nodded.

“From now on, let’s start thinking about life as precious.”

“Ah, are you just saving lives without doing anything…?”

“That’s right.”

“This crazy…”

Glio’s face turned red as he finally realized that he had been fooled properly.

In fact, I think I would have really killed him if I had rolled my tongue more…

Well, anyway, since I realized my mistake and apologized, I can forgive him to some extent.

And above all, Glioth is the older brother of the iron-blooded lord, so it’s like this.

If someone else was like this, the fist would have gone first rather than communication.

Actually…

“Oh, but I still want to crush my head, so you’d better go quickly if you want to save me.”

“…”

The hand was still appealing its strength, saying that it wanted to crush Glio’s head.

And when Glios saw his hands concentrating his strength, he was startled and broke into a cold sweat.

A state of tension revealed on his face as if he might really die if he continued like this.

Glioth was quick to be polite to me and bid me farewell.

“…I know, I know. Sungyoon Han. I apologize for my mistake and I will step down.”

“I see.”

“…And I will inform you that there will be no retaliation in the future.”

“It’s a shame.”

“?”

“I would have known that I had given up on my real life, to the point of retaliation like that.”

To him, I continued talking with a flower blooming in a wide smile.

“You are definitely thoughtful like a prince.”

“…Thank you for the compliment… Thank you.”

Could it be that he was greatly moved by the words of helping him commit suicide?

He stammered loudly, his legs trembling, as if he was overcome with emotion.

And Glios quickly stepped back, glanced at the Sangvis Lord, and left a comment.

“…Ka Canary. be well with you I have work, so let’s go. I have a schedule left.”

Certainly, unlike before, there was no composure.

“I won’t stop you from going to the place where the Four Apostles descended…”

In response, the iron-blooded lord nodded and said with a forced voice.

“…All right.”

and.

“Brother. If so, we’ll leave it to entering the battlefield separately. Enough then.”

After saying that, the iron-blooded lord turned his back and left.

It’s as if it’s embarrassing to even have more in this place.

Could it be that Glioth was not so different?

Without even talking to him now, Glioth quickly returned to his original position.

And, watching that, I quietly matched my steps with the iron-blooded lord’s stride.

“….”

How many minutes did they walk without saying a word to each other?

“…Thank you very much.”

Suddenly, the iron-blooded lord stopped walking.

And that, too, with his head bowed.

Her shoulders were trembling for some reason.

And…

“Nothing…”

Only then did I realize that the situation was unusual.

‘…uh?’

It was worth it.

“I couldn’t do anything…”

Tears were hanging in the Iron Blood Lord’s eyes before he knew it.

“I’m truly sorry…”

And that too, almost on the verge of crying.

***

In an instant, my head turns completely white.

‘What is this…’

I felt chills running down my spine at the emergency that happened in the blink of an eye.

The iron-blooded lord is about to shed tears…?

Since I learned about her, I’ve had a brain freeze at a figure I’ve never seen before.

It was such a shock to see the iron-blooded lord, who seemed to have real blood, shed tears.

To the extent that I want to roll my head as slowly as possible by activating the skill ‘Focus on Combat’.

‘What should I do…?’

Among the many experiences accumulated while climbing the tower, there is no experience that can solve this problem.

It was worth it.

Up until now, all I had done while climbing the tower was fighting against numerous enemies.

Conversation skills that can soothe emotions while dealing with people?

there could be

Even among the skills and authority he had, there was no such ability.

Therefore, the conclusion is that you have no choice but to think with your head pure.

But there was no time to think.

It’s nothing else…

“I want to apologize to you.”

“Suddenly…?”

“Didn’t you cower at your older brother and prevent you from being ridiculed?”

“ah.”

I couldn’t understand it, but I got it.

Currently, the iron-blooded monarch is filled with emotions such as guilt, shame, and anger.

In a word, she felt greatly responsible for not being able to say what she had to say because she was suppressed by Glioth.

‘Actually, it doesn’t matter that much…’

Anyway, the opponent is the prince and at the same time one of the most influential figures in the empire.

Therefore, it would be difficult to oppose the iron-blooded lord, not the challenger from the tower.

Even more so if it was her brother.

So I didn’t care too much.

‘Anyway, the iron-blooded lord was insulted more than me.’

And above all else, this side has already solved it.

So I thought everything would work out, but it seems that it didn’t.

The iron-blooded lord spoke in a half-weeping voice.

“…My older brother. It is an existence close to the right of succession to the throne. So, from a young age, I couldn’t do anything to my older brother and was taken away.”

And I quietly listened to her words.

“That’s why, as soon as I saw my older brother, I couldn’t say anything…”

In short, it meant something like learned helplessness.

“Isn’t it funny?”

The iron-blooded lord spoke in a self-deprecating tone.

“Anyway, isn’t the emperor’s succession determined by each other’s strength and achievements?”

In her world, the emperor’s succession seemed to be determined by skill.

Even that in the form of power and achievement.

That’s why Glio’s hostility spilled over to her.

Perhaps the iron-blooded lord could have usurped the position of the next emperor.

“It was the tradition of the empire, so there was no reason to shrink from my brother.”

The iron-blooded lord was still feeling disappointed with himself.

“Even so, I was only protected by you.”

that too seriously.

“You didn’t say anything even though you knew my name belonged to the imperial family.”

The iron-blooded lord’s words were gloomy.

“Perhaps this is your concern. Seeing me as I am completely. But still, I did not live up to your expectations.”

And every time she spoke, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut.

‘…uh.’

That would be too…

‘…No. It wasn’t like consideration, it was just because I didn’t know anything.’

It was because he had just learned that the iron-blooded monarch was a princess.

Not even that.

Other than that, I didn’t know anything about it properly.

Because I have never heard of private information from the Iron Blood Lord.

But don’t they say it’s okay as long as the results are good anyway?

“…”

As long as the results are good, I’ll be happy, so I quietly listened to her words.

“I thought that I would like to go beyond the Thousand and reach the position of the Thousand and one day obtain the position of Emperor.”

and.

“However, let alone the qualifications for the position of emperor, he cannot even protect one of his aides.”

The moment her words came to an end.

“I am… I don’t even deserve to be trusted by you.”

Tears of the iron-blooded lord were dripping in the snow.

“….”

I had an idea to tell her something.

At least you’d rather have the throne than have someone like Glioth become emperor.

And that feeling of self-blame is already enough qualification.

But it’s not a word that sticks to the mouth very much.

‘Somehow, I’ve come to a situation where I miss Dam Chun-wu’s advice…’

I desperately need Dam Chun-wu’s advice as I fell for a while due to the penalty of the ordeal.

But you can’t ask for help from someone who isn’t here.

That’s why I chose right away.

‘It can’t be helped.’

If that was the case, this was all I had to say.

“It doesn’t matter if you blame yourself.”

It didn’t matter what the iron-blooded lord thought of him anyway.

“Even if you don’t deserve to be emperor, even if you don’t deserve my trust, I can do anything.”

“Is that so…”

“Yes.”

It was worth it.

“Whatever you think, it won’t matter anyway.”

Because what really matters is not what she thinks she deserves.

“What is that…”

Qualification?

“You don’t deserve to be emperor. You don’t deserve to be trusted. You can say that. But…”

I didn’t think I needed anything so useless.

“At least I wouldn’t think so.”

Because…

“Canary Rugfeld.”

Even if you don’t have those things, you have enough strength to achieve what you want.

“For me, you are the emperor and one of the few people I can trust.”

“….”

“So there is no need to talk about useless qualifications.”

“What the hell…”

And then.

“Because I will make you emperor no matter what.”

The moment he said that as if to not worry soon.

“Heeep…!”

Suddenly there was a sound like a hiccup.

‘uh?’

The moment I turned my head to him and saw the iron-blooded lord.

The iron-blooded lord’s face turned bright red in surprise.

With a smile like a mouth that I’ve never seen before.

“Hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi…”

Even that, as if he was surprised, hiccups repeatedly.
