Chapter 268
Saviolin Tana is staying at the Spring Palace to take care of Charlotte in case of emergency.
It was not for Charlotte’s safety, but for the safety of the imperial castle.
That’s for sure.
“Save your words, Reinhardt, I’m not very patient.”
Saviolin Tana said in the rain.
Even if you were the princess’s friend, the story about you being entrusted with the mission to kill the princess was presumptuous. Was the reason why she blankly fell in the rain because she wanted to torment herself?
I don’t know what kind of relationship Charlotte and Saviolin Tanna have. However, it is a job to touch the body of the most noble member of the royal family, excluding the emperor.
It must have been a direct order from the emperor, and Charlotte must have accepted it.
However, it would feel like hell if you had to carry out that order yourself.
something will happen today But that’s just a warning, not a sure thing.
Before I knew it, the Palace of Spring was getting farther away.
I must not go back to the temple.
I can’t leave Charlotte behind.
But how.
Neither Charlotte nor Saviolin Tana would allow them to stay at The Spring Palace. I crossed the line a lot. He’s already allowed too much because he’s Charlotte’s friend.
I don’t know if Bertus is aware of this, but if he did, he would rather not pay attention to Charlotte. There is no reason to play tricks on a competitor who will disappear on its own.
We were already approaching the stop.
“You must know the entrance to the imperial palace. I want to take you to the entrance, but I can’t be away for long.”
“yes. Thank you, Sir Tana.”
Originally, I would have to make sure I left the imperial palace properly, but the situation was special now.
She was returning to the Spring Palace after driving me to the stop.
I am not permitted to stay.
There was no one at the stop. Everyone who has already returned has already returned. To make sure no one sees her Charlotte’s condition. The Spring Palace is in operation with only a minimum number of people left.
Now, even the least of them, except for Dyrus, have been bitten.
Just in case no one sees Charlotte die by Captain Chanapell.
That means that the defense of the Palace of Spring is very weak right now.
Is it possible to secretly observe the situation?
The Spring Palace will be her domain. Is it possible to hide my presence from her senses and infiltrate the Palace of Spring and observe the situation?
Possible or not possible, it must be done.
Near the bleak Spring Palace, where people have been pushed away.
Now was the time to strike again.
Not for me, but for Charlotte.
Just like he did when he first fell into this world.
Just as he risked his life in the Dark Castle, this time he had to gamble with his life in the imperial castle.
I can’t watch the first life I saved disappear like this.
A night of autumn rain in the dark.
Saviolin Tana is on edge. But it is not the kind of nerve that is wary of its surroundings.
He must be concentrating only on Charlotte. The depression and confusion she felt herself seemed quite deep.
My autobiography there.
I don’t know if it’s possible by erasing the presence, but I’ll try.
In that state, one more.
Use ‘retire’.
Saviolin Tana doesn’t feel my presence in the Palace of Spring.
[2,000 Achievement Points are required to trigger this event.]
It’s not an impossible event, but it’s never cheap either.
In the past, the price would have been enough to buy one talent. With this score, I imprinted the talent of autosuggestion.
Due to the combination of circumstances and conditions, it is possible to fool the grandmaster’s senses at this moment.
The current achievement score is 5,930 points.
If I could save Charlotte today, I would have spent all of these points even if I had to, or borrowed them if it was not enough.
[Uses 2,000 achievement points.]
When Saviolin Tanna disappeared beyond the garden, I left the stop and headed back to the Spring Palace.
An umbrella is placed among the flowers in the garden, and autosuggestion is also used.
No one can feel my presence.
strong allusion.
My autosuggestion is even more powerful in these real situations.
Responds to my tension and urgency.
I can’t let Charlotte die. My sense of crisis that something is happening today has made it possible to do things that were not normally possible.
I succeed in infiltrating the Palace of Spring.
There is faith mixed with certainty.
I don’t know if my presence is really gone, but the rain actually dampened the noise and I moved very cautiously.
I’ve created a situation where I can’t feel my presence, but if I suddenly run up to her and grab her by the back, of course she notices.
What is hidden is always a sign.
don’t be insecure
I approached the distant Spring Palace again.
In the cold rain, petals hit by raindrops were falling.
-Shoot it
The back of Saviolin Tana returning in the fall rain.
After that, I also followed in the rain.
* * *
Saviolin Tana was not conscious of her surroundings.
As I expected, she seemed mentally driven by the pressure of her mission.
As I was walking, I would occasionally stop and stare blankly at the Palace of Spring.
I didn’t know what he was thinking.
However, I felt a deep sadness on her back that I hadn’t shown in front of me or in front of Charlotte.
I didn’t expect to meet Saviolin Tana before the Gate Incident, and I only set the outline for her warrior (previous affair), but didn’t go into detail.
Saviolin Tana did not participate in the Pandemonium War. To be precise, she didn’t participate.
Under the pretext that the strongest power to protect the imperial castle must remain, the emperor tied her to the imperial capital.
I couldn’t use my power where it was needed the most.
That’s a huge part of her sense of debt and guilt.
She trained Ludwig as if torturing her, and it was only because of the special situation that the world was in danger, not because her mind was evil.
Saviolin Tana dies saving Ludwig.
At the same time, he apologizes to Ludwig for all his harsh treatment until now.
I don’t know her on a regular basis, but she’s just a cold and indifferent attitude, but on the inside she’s not.
rather mediocre.
He was just an ordinary person who was so strong that he had to carry a lot of things on his back.
Saviolin Tana is Epinhauser’s distant senior.
After graduating from Temple and joining Shanafell, she would have been a knight of the Empire for decades. She’s even nicknamed the guardian of the imperial family.
That’s why she must have had many things to do with the imperial family.
What was your relationship like with Charlotte?
I don’t know, but the fact that she values Charlotte was felt from her hesitant steps.
Watching Saviolin Tana return to the Palace of Spring, I also entered the Palace.
As I entered the palace entrance, I did not feel any magical barriers.
I thought that if there was such a thing, the feeling would warn me, but I didn’t feel anything like that at all.
Are the guards, including the magic barrier, disarmed, or are they inactive? Or did they even evict all the magicians who were in charge of that part?
Just like a house with nothing to steal doesn’t need a lock.
The Palace of Spring, which even Sarkegar could not infiltrate, became a very easy place to infiltrate as the shadow of death fell.
Thanks to Charlotte’s guidance, I roughly remembered what was in every corner of the palace.
I might have forgotten about it in a few days, but I just heard it.
There are only three people in this huge, empty palace: Saviolin Tana, Dyrus, and Charlotte.
The lights were on, but no one was there to see me.
– rumble
It was an ominous sound, but now the sound of thunder and rain would drown out my footsteps.
what am i supposed to do here I didn’t know anything yet.
vague certainty.
Because of that feeling that I couldn’t even talk about, I infiltrated the princess’s palace, refusing to tell her to return.
If I get caught in a bad situation, Saviolin Tana won’t leave me alone, even with Charlotte’s mercy.
If you get it wrong, you die for real.
I moved in the shadows, hiding in the darkest places in the palace’s illuminated light source.
strengthen hearing
-Kurrureung!
When I strengthened my hearing, I could hear the sound of thunder as if it would tear my ears apart, and the sound of the rain became even more detailed.
Autosuggestion is now B rank. After successfully strengthening magic power, the rank has risen as a result of steady training since then.
Therefore, its utilization is increasing. Not only has the range of application expanded, but the methods used in the past are becoming more and more effective.
It was natural for me to be able to discern the sound I wanted to hear in the sounds. This has been possible before, but it is possible to distinguish more finely.
In the sound of rain, I could even distinguish the sound of water with a slightly different texture as it ran down the ceiling of the palace.
It was easy to distinguish the sound of Saviolin Tana walking in the sea of sounds. It is possible to predict to some extent from the sound of walking to the distance from me.
I don’t know the structure of the entire palace, but I know the approximate locations.
In the hallway on the left on the second floor, there is Charlotte’s bedroom. Saviolin Tana is heading there now.
I could make out the sound in the dark corner of the hall on the first floor.
It must have been possible because the palace was quiet and there was no noise at all. The only other sounds were thunder and rain.
-Your Highness?
– You are inside.
-okay.
Dyrus’s voice came in.
I heard the door open.
-Your Highness, are you okay?
– Yes, not yet.
I heard Charlotte’s calm voice.
Charlotte’s superpower.
It was such a dangerous ability that the emperor had to kill the princess. And is Charlotte also accepting it herself?
Because he killed people because his powers ran out of control?
– Click
I heard the door slam shut, and no more sound could be heard from inside.
Probably because of the soundproofing.
You have to go a little closer.
When I went up to the second floor and looked around, there was no one in the hallway, apparently even Dyrus had entered Charlotte’s bedroom.
Just in case, I sneaked into a niche in the hallway and approached Charlotte’s bedroom.
You shouldn’t make any noise.
Even though Saviolin Tana has made it impossible for me to detect my presence, I shouldn’t trust it too much.
You are cheating on someone you would never normally be able to fool.
The closer I get, the more I imagine Saviolin Tana popping out of nowhere and grabbing my neck.
My whole body should have been chilled by the rain, but my body was rather hot because of the tension.
cold sweat flows
Luckily, they can’t use magic.
If you were using noise canceling, you wouldn’t have heard it at all. As she moved closer to Charlotte’s bedroom, she could barely hear a voice coming from inside her room.
-still… … . Can’t you remember?
-yes… … .
I heard Tana’s worried questions and Charlotte’s gloomy answers.
What do you mean you can’t remember?
– I think the time is getting closer. Please don’t hesitate then. Sir Tana.
-That won’t happen. There must be a way to solve the state of charge… … . The Imperial Family is doing their best to find you.
The imperial family tried to find a way, but it was already sensed from Saviolin Tana’s tone that there was nothing but hopeless prospects.
– I won’t be able to find a way out before my condition gets worse.
Charlotte was negative, and Dyrus and Tana couldn’t deny it either.
-Your Highness, as expected, find that child… … .
– Stop, please. I don’t know how many times to say. Don’t talk about that kid.
Charlotte murmured nervously at Dyrus’ words.
If it was that child, of course he would be talking about me.
Does Dyrus think that if he finds me, he might know how to make Charlotte better? why?
If Charlotte’s psychic powers are dangerous, what does that have to do with me?
An ominous feeling and numerous hints gradually made me imagine something I didn’t want to do.
