The Demon King’s Seal Has Been Broken

38 – Unforgivable Princess [Rebellion] – 7

The situation where the princess’s disposition must be decided now.

I couldn’t help but worry quite a bit right now.

Now that the emperor asked me, this decision was not one that could be made lightly, so I closed my eyes and thought for a while.

‘As expected… I can’t help it.’

And as a result of thinking like that, I made a decision after much thought.

I made a decision thinking that there was really nothing I could do about it. To be honest, I’m not too fond of my judgment either.

Still, I really couldn’t think of a better way other than this.

“Okay. If that’s the Emperor’s will, I won’t kill the princess.”

In the end, I had no choice but to make a decision that saved my conclusion.

The reason why he made this decision was that he couldn’t ignore the emperor’s will.

Because he couldn’t have killed the person who protected my precious person, the precious person of such a person.

I was somehow indebted to the emperor, and I could not ignore that debt.

Right now, the princess was someone I didn’t need to respect, but the emperor was someone I should respect.

Because of this, I made this judgment, and if there is another reason.

‘Well… I’m not at the point where I can do anything anymore anyway.’

It was because I thought it would be okay to save her.

Now that the demon king had already been resurrected, there was nothing the empire had to do.

From now on, what I do as a warrior will be much more important.

Even if he saved the princess, it wouldn’t matter as long as she didn’t act like a troll again.

As long as it doesn’t bother me, I don’t really care what she does, because that was my original course of action.

I just went back to my original course of action.

If that were the case, I wouldn’t kill the princess even for the sake of seeing the emperor’s face.

“But, there is no next time. This is not advice, this is a warning.”

But if you do something against me, then I will never forgive you.

At that time, I thought I would not stand it any longer.

Whether it was the emperor’s request or not, I couldn’t spare anyone who interfered with me.

There are no more exceptions when it comes to dealing with threats to my loved ones.

I said the last thing I would say to the princess who was still fainting and couldn’t wake up.

I hope that even if I sleep like this, my sincerity will be well communicated to the princess.

“Your Majesty… I’ll go. I’m busy with work.”

Once everything is over.

There’s no need to stay here in the imperial palace any longer.

After bowing to the emperor, I left the palace.

After everything was over, the princess’s office, who had passed out soon after, woke up.

“Have you gone…?”

Looking around, there was no warrior trying to kill him.

Fortunately, the princess was able to save her life.

The last thing she saw before collapsing was her father, His Majesty the Emperor.

Knowing that, we can infer that Rag just backed off thanks to the emperor’s request,

It’s thanks to him that he didn’t die.

Her life was on the line, and the princess did not suffer any physical damage.

Fortunately, from the princess’ point of view, you might think that she overcame the crisis well without any damage.

“Huh…”

However, it was only physical damage, not mental damage.

The princess was crouching in the corner of her office and weeping sadly, thinking about today’s events.

It was clear that the events with the hero were very disgraceful and painful for her.

‘My… Why do I have to suffer like this.’

To be honest, she still has no idea what she did wrong.

Why the hell do they have to be humiliated by the warriors like this?

Still she couldn’t understand why the hero was doing this to her.

He was only for the sake of the empire.

Because of this, the thought of being unfair had no choice but to settle in the princess’s mind.

However, the princess was not a person to be so easily frustrated.

‘Two… wait and see! It will surely make you regret giving me this shame.’

Wiping her teary face with her arm, she stood up.

And I made a promise to myself.

I will definitely tell the hero someday.

After making sure to let her know how capable the princess is.

That way, he will flatten the nose of the warrior who said he was useless.

‘This way would be much more efficient than the petty revenge.’

Of course, at first, I had the idea of driving the army for a while and dealing with the hero for a very short time.

But, if you do something like that, maybe…?

Hmm… I couldn’t help but feel a little ominous.

‘I… I’m not doing this because I’m scared.’

This was like the princess herself giving her own warmth to the ignorant common people.

Of course, if you think about it carefully, the hero did something unforgivable.

Rather than subduing such a hero by force, it would be better to show one’s competence and make him regret it.

Because that was the natural duty of a monarch.

I had an intuition that I would never be able to defeat the hero…

It wasn’t because I felt like I would get tired again just by looking at him.

Absolutely not.

never…!

‘Whoa… Let’s think about what to do next.’

Anyway, in order to do that, it was time to work as a princess again.

The empire was in quite a state of chaos right now, so I couldn’t waste time like this.

Now, going back to being the princess, she was about to do the business of the empire.

“Princess. It’s a big deal.”

Another secretary of his hurriedly entered the office.

The secretary had a very nervous face.

“What happened?”

Seeing the secretary like that, the princess couldn’t help but feel worried.

Could it be that the demon king invaded again?

Or could it be that the hero had a change of heart and wanted to kill himself?

It felt like being stabbed a lot.

So many worrisome thoughts came to my mind, and I waited for the secretary’s words with a trembling heart.

“It is said that a force has emerged from the western city of the Empire claiming independence.”

What I heard that way, thinking that it wasn’t so, I felt very fortunate. It wasn’t in the watermelon…?

It was obvious, but

After all, this was not an issue to be taken lightly.

A western city trying to gain independence from the Empire?

Isn’t this almost a rebellion?

“Yeah? What the hell is that? Who the hell did that?”

What the hell is this all about?

Princess Lecia had no idea who or why did this.

So I looked at the secretary and asked who the mastermind behind this was.

I heard something very unexpected.

“That… that… is the second princess, Anastasia.”

Anastasia, her half-brother who was pushed aside from the imperial succession to herself.

It was said that she was now the ringleader of the rebel forces.

“No… why the hell is he?”

At first, I didn’t understand at all.

With her common sense, she couldn’t understand why Anastasia was doing such useless, meaningless things now.

Because Anastasia had already been completely pushed out of the battle for succession with herself.

All the other nobles were already supporting Lesia, not Anastasia.

In addition, everything, be it the army or administration of the empire, was already in Lesia’s hands.

That’s why Anastasia’s actions had no choice but to be considered useless.

Normally, I would have thought so.

“You see this as an opportunity.”

However, thinking about it, it might be enough to cause it.

Right now, because of the demon king, the state of the empire wasn’t very good.

Many troops had already gathered in the fortress city.

In addition, now that the seal of the demon king has been lifted and the hero Bill’s party has failed, his own position that supported him has been greatly reduced.

I used to receive absolute support from nobles, but I guess I won’t be able to get that kind of support anymore.

In many ways, Lesia’s situation was not good.

And that meant to Anastasia that this was a one-of-a-kind chance.

“So where is Anastasia now?”

Once the situation is urgent

Lecia had absolutely no intention of letting Anastasia do what she wanted.

If you miss, you’ll have to make a decision.

Because of this, Lesia asked her secretary where Anastasia was now.

“That’s… For some reason, he says he’s with the Rag hero.”

To that, the secretary replied with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“yes…?”

The princess couldn’t help but be surprised to hear that.

Why does he have a dragon love…?

‘It’s pretty late…’

After everything is over, I’m going to go back to my hometown.

If you think about it, I went from the empire to the fortress city, fought there, and moved to the empire again without rest.

My body was exhausted from not taking a break at all, and my sister and childhood friend were worried a lot, so the first thing I had to do was go home and rest.

So I was on my way out of the Empire and on my way back home…

I met a very unexpected person.

“Hello. Rag Champion.”

Appearance similar to the first princess, Lecia.

However, a woman with a slightly more mature feel.

“It’s been a while. I have something to say. Would it be okay for a moment?”

The second princess of the empire, Anastasia.

Me and her were old friends.
