Chapter 265: Side Story 11
The northern region of the Southern Continent was the home of barbarians and those who tried to exert their evil influence It was considered to be a barren land of civilization However, if one goes past the barren land and went further south, there was a region where human civilization blossomed as much as it didn’t in the barren land There weren’t many people who knew this, but Empress[1] Leila was one of the few people who did
“Which Southern Continent country are you from?”
“Jae Nation, Your I for a bit, Yushi+n responded
“What was your status in Jae Nation and what did you do there?”
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but I can’t tell you that”
“You can’t tell me… Even if I told you that it’s an order?”
This was an order from the Empress of a country But if he refused that order? It was no different than giving up his life However…
“I’m sorry, Your Imperial Majesty I can’t tell you”
Yushi+n calmly refused to obey the command Instead, it was Elizabeth who beca so fearlessly?’
Elizabeth knew that herif she said she would There was no one who could id attitude in front of herthat Yushi+n er, Elizabeth quickly stepped forward to cover for hiuy has his own reasons…”
“You rown up treasured”
E
“Your Majesty?”
She calmly continued when Yushi+n questioned her
“You hter said you handled the re Ghosts on your own? And three of them at that? And with your bare hands?”
“Yes, Your Majesty That’s right”
“I don’t knohat the standards are for knights in the Southern Continent, butGhost members are above an Expert So, for you to have dealt with them with your bare hands enius, or you’ve been given an education for gifted people since young? Or maybe even both”
“That’s…”
Empress Leila continued to talk when Yushi+n tried to ed or nervous at all when you entered the I you need to say to me, the Empress of this country, or to my husband That means your family is either the Imperial fa?”
“”
Yushi+n closed his mouth
“So hoere you kidnapped by the Ghosts? Well, to be more exact, you said you weren’t kidnapped but you were transferred? And before you hter, you weren’t desperate or rebellious”
“Your I but…”
“Wasn’t it your family that locked you up? And for them to transport you to another continent far away, doesn’t thatyou, there’s a reason they can’t kill you? And you intended to follow along with their plan I don’t knohat the deal is, but there’s a possibility that soe”
“”
“Was there anything wrong inat Leila’s relaxed expression, Yushi+n thought, ‘Is the Empress of this continent a monster?’
In a sense, he was correct
Empress Leila slowly leaned back as she spoke
“Truthfully, I was going to agree to whoever ood, then It’s this guy He’s pretty handsoo back to our normal lives?”
Elizabeth butted in as if she had been waiting for Empress Leila to say those exact words However, Empress Leila shook her head
“But not you”
“Why not?”
“You’ve beenstill since the beginning”
Blushi+ng, Elizabeth stepped back when Empress Leila scolded her
Empress Leila continued to talk
“There are two reasons First, it doesn’t h or low, but I won’t allow soe you if you do not tell me your identity in the Southern Continent and what led you to this continent”
“What does that o?”
“Let it go?”
At Empress Leila’s questions, Elizabeth responded in a small voice
“Probably not”
Elizabeth could understand
His status really didn’t h, then they just needed to treat his faly And it didn’tthe current Imperial family’s power and authority, she didn’t need a political e for a political partner On the contrary, it may become noisier if she married someone kwardly powerful In that sense, someone as ordinary with no poas better
But, as Empress Leila said, it was troublesome to marry someone ouldn’t fully identify himself If they accepted so what kind of a past that person has or what the person did in their life, and later on in life, a problem of the past comes up, then it becomes a burden of the Imperial Family
Elizabeth at least had the sense to understand what E
“Mother, you said there were two reasons What’s the other one?”
Empress Leila smiled at Elizabeth’s question
“The second reason? It’s a much simpler reason”
“What is it?”
“You aren’t courting because you’re in love, are you? H left and right as if there was an earthquake
“What are you… how can you say so so slanderous, Your Majesty”
Anyone could tell she was very agitated
“Ho… Then did I see it wrong?”
“Yes Of course, you did We love each other very deeply We already… even…”
“Already even, what?”
When Eht to herself
‘fuck it’
“We’ve already done everything”
This was often referred to as an irrational ht have fainted if he heard this, but Eht it was ridiculous
“I’hter isn’t pure anymore My heart and body will not accept a different man”
“Oh, really, is that so?”
