Episode 308 The crown prince’s flower language is low night (2)
night.
A time that easily puts people in trouble. Today too, it is a time of darkness and darkness where many people are tossing and turning in their blankets and sometimes kicking and unable to sleep.
Here, in the practice hall of the Oriental Medicine Clinic, a villa in Magenta, the imperial capital, there was a man who was in trouble.
‘Oh, I’m going crazy!’
Rachiel gritted his teeth. And then I looked up. A sight on a summer night that would normally have been just quiet and sticky. Tinkerbell moths decorate the dark sky. In the meantime, something strange that I didn’t normally see approached me.
It was Princess Adeline’s fist.
Kwahahaha-!
It’s just a fist made of bone and flesh flying. But why does it make a loud noise like a KTX train passing the platform without stopping?
‘Are you being too sincere?’
It was absurd.
When I was asked to spar earlier, I had no idea it would be like this. I just thought he was doing that because he was mad at this person for some reason. But I really had no idea that he would throw such a serious punch.
In the end, he had no choice but to hastily retreat.
“…sigh!”
Taaat!
kicked the ground
At the same time, the protection given by Vampire Lord Hildert’s true blood was activated.
Ding dong!
[It is night.]
[The Vampire Lord’s protection increases your physical abilities by three times.]
[The Vampire Lord’s protection increases your mana circle efficiency by three times.]
But it did not end there.
[The full moon has risen.]
[The Vampire Lord’s protection effect is increased by 5 times!]
Throw in!
I simply kicked the ground. I just tried to take a couple of quick steps back. But that wasn’t the result.
Whoa!
My whole body flew backwards. This was because his strength suddenly became five times stronger. Adeline’s fist, which was rushing towards her, moved away in an instant. A gust of wind blowing from behind tousled my hair like crazy.
Still, the landing wasn’t difficult.
This was thanks to a five-fold improvement in reflexes and sense of balance.
Wow!
I landed, almost plowing the sandy floor of the training ground. And then I raised my head again. In an instant, I saw Princess Adeline standing blankly about 6 meters away.
“Just… what did you do?”
Are you really surprised? She asked blankly, unable to even relax her outstretched fist.
Rakiel shrugged his shoulders awkwardly.
“You ran away?”
“Running away?”
“Ah, suddenly a regime with so much sincerity came flying that I stopped before I knew it.”
“Anyway, how did it move like that?”
“Isn’t it because of the sense of crisis?”
“…Then let’s keep going.”
“yes?”
The moment I asked a question, she kicked the ground. It wasn’t a radical charge, but it was a clever and quick step. In an instant, two consecutive left-handed hits came.
Shush!
A short and concise double jab!
In the past, I would have been lightly beaten or would have been quick to defend myself by covering my face. But not anymore. I could see all the flying fists. This was thanks to a five-fold improvement in moving-body vision and the activity of the visual center of the brain that analyzes it.
“…!”
Okay.
He let off two consecutive hits with a minimal nod. Adeline’s expression hardened. Could it be that I didn’t know that I could avoid it like this? The straight right hand that flew right away became sharper. At this level, it’s almost like the real thing.
‘I can’t avoid this, can I?’
I felt it intuitively.
No matter how much physical ability improved, there were limits. In particular, since this person had never properly learned fighting or sword fighting, there was a lot of wasted movement. The movement of the body’s center of gravity was also not natural. Her straight was precisely digging into that loophole.
‘Then just stop it!’
I immediately heard about the perennial snow. A cold shield was deployed. Immediately thereafter, a strong impact was applied to the shield.
Kwachang-!
“…Shoot!”
A strong striking force that knocks on the ice cap! It was a blow that could split a rock.
I was dumbfounded.
“Are you trying to kill me?”
“No way. “I don’t think you’ll die at this level, right?”
“It’s too serious a punch for something like that?”
“Would the Crown Prince say something like that even after he was truly making fun of people?”
“yes?”
Me?
A joke?
What?
I wanted to ask.
But there was no time for that.
“A long time ago, not long after the civil war in Amboise ended.”
Bang bang! Kwahak tukkak!
A series of bloody and heavy blows rained down. Still, it wasn’t slow. No, it was fast. Although these were seemingly ordinary movements, there was no unnecessary action and the weight movement was very natural. So there was no way out.
Just hold up your shield like a turtle and block it. I just hear the words she speaks calmly while throwing repeated blows, which somehow sounds even more creepy.
“Why didn’t you respond to the courtship letter sent from Amboise?”
Sigh! Kwasik! Kwauk! Too! bang! Two hooks! thud!
“A million geng! Extremely awesome! Wow! Wow!”
…I’m dying.
I was sick? Because you can’t bear it?
no.
Actually, it was worth holding on to. Even though a huge series of attacks were coming, I only felt a little stiff. My tenacity also improved fivefold, so I got used to it and felt like I could always slip away like before.
But I couldn’t.
It was because my conscience was stabbed in an instant.
‘Oh right. at that time.’
It occurred to me.
Was it right after the Civil War in Amboise ended? Courtship letters came in droves from royal families from all over the world and countless noble families. Of course, among them was a courtship letter sent from the Kingdom of Amboise.
So what did I do at the time?
‘…I sent invitation responses to all other places, but didn’t send them only to Amboise.’
In fact, the reason was clear.
Because I have no intention of becoming emperor. However, being married to a family that sent a courtship letter in the hope of becoming an empress would be a deceitful use of marriage to defraud one’s life. So, he tried to match the second prince with those who sent him a courtship letter.
But what if Adeline, the princess of Amboise, comes to that event? There was a very high possibility that their intentions would go astray. From the beginning, she wouldn’t even pay attention to the second prince. There was a high possibility that everyone’s attention would be focused on this area.
So I didn’t call him on purpose.
It wasn’t because I didn’t like her. There were no personal feelings. It was really just an extremely strategic(?) choice.
But now that I think about it….
‘It must have been frustrating for the princess.’
A situation in which the courtship court is held alone. It must have been heartbreaking to watch as others were invited and headed to Magenta, the ecliptic. Wouldn’t it have felt like being the only one talking openly in a group chat room where everyone was together?
“I’m sorry I’m sorry!”
There is no excuse for this. Rakiel readily admitted his mistake. But Adeline’s ax eye did not loosen.
“sorry?”
Quang!
“Oh yes!”
“really?”
Throw in!
“Seriously!”
“….”
Princess Adeline looked at Rachiel with strange eyes. The crown prince crouching behind the ice cap to withstand the blows from this side. As I looked at it, I kept being amazed.
‘Prince, it wasn’t like this before this person.’
How on earth can he withstand my blows so calmly? How did you develop that tenacity to pretend to be in pain but actually not be in pain? And how can the same movement as before be possible?
It was amazing. Or, to be more honest… I felt astonished.
‘If we clash against each other with all our might, will I be able to win?’
no.
I can’t win.
I could feel it intuitively.
There is also the fact that the crown prince is a generous person, so he is just giving this side a favor. If he sincerely launches a counterattack, he will find himself on the defensive. And… the fact that his anger had suddenly melted away like snow.
“….”
This is absurd.
I’ve been grinding my teeth for over a year. I was so ready that if I ever met him, I would use the sparring accident as an excuse and just punch him in the pitiful solar plexus. I thought I finally had the chance today. I was confident that I would have no hesitation.
But what if I get angry just by looking at your face once? Why am I not more angry? Why on earth do I feel insignificant and sorry when I see that cowering appearance?
“Ha…”
Eventually, Adeline stopped sparring. And then he looked down at the prince who was half a span shorter than him.
“Are you really sorry?”
“…yes?”
“Then why don’t you at least treat me to a meal?”
“Meal… you mean?”
“yes. I’m hungry. It’s been a while since I moved around a lot. Moreover, during the day, I was harassed by His Majesty the Emperor at the negotiation table all day.”
“Could it be that the punching just a moment ago was part of relieving stress?”
“Did the crown prince feel that way?”
“My treatment… a punching bag?”
“Then shall we do it again?”
“no. no.”
The crown prince quickly clears the ice cap.
Adeline couldn’t help but smile bitterly at that sight. The crown prince is a truly amazing person. How did he get that kind of power to overwhelm this side? And yet, you are being generous by not using it. Even hiding one’s strength is clearly clumsy.
‘I always make people feel thankful and sorry for no reason.’
So it’s more unique.
I keep looking forward to it.
This is especially true when the table is politely set for 20 people when asked to serve a meal.
“You really want me to eat all this?”
A truly long table.
Adeline was shocked when she saw the food spread all over it. Could it be that my treatment is a food fight? But she had to realize that she had misunderstood.
“no. “It was prepared so that the princess and her attendants could all eat it together.”
“yes?”
“Because the attendants must be hungry too, right?”
“….”
That’s right.
“And instead of thanking me, I would be even more grateful if you thanked the villa chefs who suddenly called in during off-hours and carefully prepared food for 20 people.”
“Ah…”
I’m a bit sorry about that, but I’m grateful.
Adeline felt embarrassed and surprised inside. He simply said that he was hungry, but with those words, the crown prince thought of and cared for the entire group of envoys. In fact, it was something he had not thought about even though he represented the Shinigami.
“….”
She was in a complicated state of mind as she crunched her fork. Crown Prince, what on earth is this person? The more I experienced it, the more curious I became.
How long was it like that? When the plates on the table were half empty, the crown prince, who had been keeping his mouth shut the whole time, said something unexpected.
“But princess? “I am the one who has been closely guarding the princess since a while ago.”
“yes?”
“Thank you for bringing me here today.”
“what?”
Did you bring him well?
What does it mean?
Princess Adeline looked back at her close escort pointed out by Rachiel. It was the half-elf Édouard Amboise, his in-command and general of Amboise.
At that time, even more unexpected words came out of the crown prince’s mouth.
“Actually, just in case, I deliberately treated everyone to a meal and watched closely before, and that’s what I felt. Within a few years, he will suffer from a serious disease that will put his life at risk. No, actually, I’m already sick.”
“yes?”
What… what do you mean?
A major illness? Do you already have a life-threatening disease? Dansuk is healthier and stronger than anyone else?
Adeline was astonished and widened her eyes. Edouard, the half-elf general of Amboise who had suddenly been diagnosed with a terminal illness, frowned and looked at the crown prince.
Of course, Rachiel didn’t care about their reactions.
His words continued calmly.
“Chronic malignant gastric ulcer. It is an inevitable genetic disease that half-elves, who are a mixed race of elves and humans, have no choice but to suffer from.”
