“Then, Mr. Javilon? Let me make a suggestion. “If you touch me from now on, that military doctor Lee Han will die?”
“…!”
My heart is pounding.
It’s dark before my eyes.
Javilon felt gloomy. At the same time, a desperate and urgent pulse gripped my entire head.
‘no!’
I can’t believe that Surgeon Lee Han is dying.
That’s not possible.
How hard did it take to find him? How much I wanted to get it back. I wanted to keep him by my side as my doctor for the rest of my life. That was the only best goal. That way you won’t suffer from headaches. Because you will be able to live free from terrible pain.
But what if Dr. Lee Han, the only person who can solve his headaches, dies? What if I disappear from this world? What if I can never have you by my side again?
“….”
A huge sense of loss.
A distant feeling of despair.
An indescribable sense of crisis gave goosebumps to the back of Javilon’s head. His answer became urgent.
“Huh nonsense! “If you hurt even a single hair of surgeon Lee Han, your life, Prince, will be at risk!”
“Then Doctor Lee Han dies?”
“…!”
“I told you, Mr. Javilon. If you touch me, Doctor Lee Han will die. Does this sound like a joke? “I’m not?”
Javilon’s eyes shake even more.
Rachiel shouted, looking at it intently.
“Damian!”
His shout wasn’t that loud. But it was enough to reach Damian’s keen sense of hearing.
“Cut off his earlobes!”
“…!”
Javilon’s eyes widened.
At the same time, Damien’s sword immediately moved without even a word or question.
Spit!
“Sure!”
Immediately after Damian’s longsword moved lightly, the lower part of Anansha’s right earlobe was sharply cut off by about 0.5 cm. Numb pain. The blood that flowed out quickly turned the nape of my neck and the collar of my shirt dark red.
Rakiel’s gaze as he looked back at Javilon became meaningful.
“Did you see it?”
“What…”
“Are you going to cut me?”
“….”
“Keep in mind. Next up is the neck.”
“Even after all this, do you hope you are safe, Crown Prince?”
“If you watch a little longer, you will know who will be safe, right?”
Rachiel smiled bitterly.
As expected, Javilon doesn’t recognize this human at all. He’s holding this person in his hand while shouting ‘Surgeon Lee Han!’ at the wrong guy.
The more I thought about it, the more absurd this situation became. But doesn’t that mean he can’t claim that this is Army Surgeon Lee Han?
‘But whatever, nice Damian.’
It was thanks to Damian’s quick action. Literally like lightning. By suppressing the warlock without giving Javilon a chance to react properly, this side was able to hold the hilt of the sword.
Rachiel glanced at the surrounding situation.
Has everyone finally caught the mood?
Some of the Royal Guard troops were rushing towards Damian and the warlock. The siege of the main square also became stronger. good night. Now, neither that warlock nor Javilon will be able to escape from here on their own.
‘So, let’s replay the scenario.’
Quickly grasp the situation.
Faster, on-the-fly strategy planning.
Rakiel’s cerebral cortex spun violently and roughly like a 12-cylinder naturally aspirated supercar engine that had been blasted. Emerging expected scenarios and countermeasures until future events unfold. In a moment, I thought of several possibilities and results and calculated them.
And we came up with the optimal strategy.
‘Once you have chosen a strategy, execute it immediately.’
…Chop, chop!
His tongue filled his lips with saliva as he drew a dazzling geometric graph of the epsilon-delta argument. And he shouted to the emperor who was closely watching the situation.
“Your Majesty the Emperor! “I, Raquiel Adria Magentano, the rightful heir of Magentano, have a request to make to your Majesty!”
A cry that rang out loudly.
At that cry, everyone felt the urge to check their own cochlea. It was a question that hit the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex.
‘Your Majesty? Request? now?’
The crown prince was captured and taken hostage by an assailant who broke into the canonization ceremony venue. However, the real villain of the hostage situation was also captured by the crown prince’s guards. A situation in which they became hostages and faced each other.
But what is the crown prince trying to ask the emperor in this situation? What kind of plan does he have?
While everyone in the square was feeling doubtful, Rachiel’s shout continued.
“If possible, please make a promise for me, a humble person!”
“….”
The emperor drew wrinkles between his eyebrows.
In fact, it was the emperor whose heart was beating faster than anyone else in the room. My heart was already pounding. My palms were soaked with sweat. I was wondering if something bad might happen to my precious eldest son. I thought it would be better to become a hostage instead.
Still, he was an emperor.
As a father whose son was threatened, as a man who reigned supreme over everyone, he could not show his embarrassment. This was especially true now. Especially at a moment like now, when the prestige of the empire and the imperial family could fall.
“…Let the crown prince tell us what he thinks.”
He barely held back the cries of asking about his son’s well-being. Instead, he winked at the court wizard and instructed him to use a voice expansion spell, and only then did he respond in a calm voice using the power of magic.
Rachiel shouted.
“I am truly devastated! So I dare say, from now on! “I need your Majesty’s promise not to commit any kind of attack against that group of kidnappers!”
“…what?”
This time, the emperor could not completely hide his embarrassment.
“Tell me in more detail what you mean.”
“Yes, Your Majesty! From now on, I will be negotiating a hostage exchange with the author! That’s why we need a promise that will give the author confidence!”
“You mean a promise not to attack him?”
“That is so, Your Majesty!”
“What can I risk through an oath?”
“With the honor of the imperial family! Please put your faith on the line!”
“Do you really mean that if I break the agreement, I will be excommunicated from the church?”
“You are correct, Your Majesty!”
“….”
Maybe I’m crazy. Perhaps the crown prince’s judgment was impaired as he was forced into an extreme situation.
I had that thought for a moment.
But the next moment the emperor could see clearly. Although it was quite a distance away, I could see the prince’s eyes looking in this direction. Confusion and embarrassment were nowhere to be found. Rather, they had extremely calm eyes.
It’s like the eyes of someone who is trying to control and control the current situation.
‘You…’
You’re probably plotting something. Even in this situation, you have the intention of never taking any losses.
The emperor suddenly realized.
It may have been thanks to that realization.
“…good night. “I understand what the crown prince means.”
Emperor Asterion nodded.
“I promise here that the Magentano royal family will not engage in any form of attack or attempt to arrest the group that violated the crown prince today. If this agreement is violated, all honor of the imperial family will be laid aside and I will be excommunicated. I will walk. Also, all who are now gathered in this square will be witnesses of this covenant.”
His declaration spread profoundly to the corners of the square thanks to the power of magic.
“…is it done now?”
“I am devastated, Your Majesty!”
Rakiel shouted loudly.
At the same time, I suppressed laughter.
done.
‘With this, the settings(?) for executing the operation are completed.’
Rachiel turned her head while her hair was spinning wildly in every corner of her brain. I could see the warlock being held by Damian in the distance.
“hey.”
It was quite a distance, but unlike when talking to the emperor, there was no need to shout. That guy’s hearing must be shared with the Javilon that’s holding him.
He used Javilon as a radio(?) to talk to the warlock.
“Can you hear me? If you can hear it, raise your head.”
“….”
Anansha, whose shoulders were shaking from the pain and humiliation of losing her earlobe, raised her head. Rachiel’s voice flowed into his ears through the hearing connected to Javilon.
“You probably just heard it all. “What kind of agreement did our Majesty make?”
“….”
“You know our situation now, right? “Even though they are tied together as hostages, they must fully realize who is at a disadvantage.”
“….”
Anansha gritted his teeth silently. He too was fully aware of the situation going on.
All plans were ruined. He ordered Javilon to threaten the crown prince, and when everyone was in trouble, he tried to take action. Using his superiority in mind control, he attempted to kill Javilon in front of everyone.
then?
I was confident that I would become a hero. As a person who saved the crown prince, a contributor to society, and a guardian who protected the honor of the imperial family.
But that plan failed. It’s not just ruined, it’s completely ruined now. The plan was exposed, and he himself was subdued by the crown prince’s guards.
‘Now… I won’t be able to get out of here on my own.’
He acknowledged the situation.
The square has already been surrounded in several layers. The crown prince and himself become each other hostage. Even if freedom is gained through hostage exchange? After that, will they be able to withstand the attacks of the Royal Guard and Sword Masters? no. It will never be possible.
“…so! Did you obtain the Emperor’s promise to gain my trust?”
Anansha shouted.
Rachiel smiled with only one lip.
“of course. Otherwise, would you agree to an exchange here? “I guess not?”
“….”
“But that doesn’t mean you have to go to a deserted place and exchange it. There is no way our Majesty would just watch that happen.”
“….”
“That’s why I am being considerate so that we can skip negotiations where there is no answer for both parties. “How about exchanging hostages here?”
“….”
Anansha was worried for a moment. Can we trust the crown prince’s proposal? I had a natural suspicion.
But…
‘Damn.’
There is no choice now. There is no freedom of choice. Rather, that proposal is the rope of salvation that came down from a complete betrayal.
Anansha acknowledged the situation.
‘Still, the emperor made a promise with everyone here as witnesses. He even directly announced that he would be excommunicated from the church. That… you can believe it.’
If you look at it objectively, it was like that.
Excommunication is never a joke.
Simply the emperor’s personal loss of faith? That’s not it.
If the emperor is excommunicated, the entire imperial family and the empire are automatically excommunicated. In other words, all exchanges and cooperation between the empire and the church are cut off. All monasteries of the Holy Order will withdraw from the empire, and the empire’s international status and public sentiment will fall into the abyss.
This is literally a situation that is not a joke.
‘Since I put such a condition on it… I’m sure he won’t break his promise outright.’
Of course, after leaving this square, they will launch a secret attack. They’ll set up a chase team without people knowing. But that doesn’t matter. If you join forces with the powerful monster Sword Master Javilon, you will be able to resist the pursuit.
“…good night!”
Anansha shouted after completing his calculations.
“I agree with the crown prince’s proposal! then! What if we count to three and each person is released?”
“call.”
Rachiel nodded. Now it is time to throw the final pebble for the success of the operation. He looked back at Javilon who had captured him and smiled meaningfully.
“Did you just hear that? “They say you can release me on the count of three.”
“…You know you’re lucky, prince.”
Javilon responded with murderous eyes.
But Rakiel didn’t even blink.
“I know. I’m lucky. “I was taken to the laboratory and met you again, who I thought was dead.”
“…what?”
“I said I was sorry back then.”
“….”
“I’m sorry for trying to run away by deceiving you with a lie that said you had to pray once a month to maintain your healing power.”
“What…”
“I’m sorry that you suddenly got so big that I beat you around. I must have felt sick and embarrassed. yes?”
“….”
“by the way. Considering that I failed to get into art school, I guess it doesn’t matter anymore. “Shouldn’t I just continue to pursue my hobby of drawing freely?”
“….”
“Oh, I’m sorry again if I was rude. “I have a lot to say I’m sorry for today.”
“Are you…”
…Who are you?
Who on earth would casually bring up a story that only me and Army Doctor Rihan know?
Javilon looking at Rachiel. The life in his eyes slowly disappeared. It was the moment when the false bean pods that Anansha’s mind control magic had placed on him began to peel off with a single cue.
