Herscherik

Chapter vii: gossip king and his butler and pet princess part ii

"…… Luke, please. Protect him from going crazy.

It was the word entrusted to her by the Lord's princess and his friend, on the floor of death.

At that time Luke didn't understand half of what she was saying.

To him with a look of doubt, she overlapped words.

"Soldier is sweet. Be nice to everyone...... Prioritize people over yourself, sacrifice yourself...... I always kill myself.

Her life, which gave birth to a son with Soldier, was still about to disappear. But still spin the words clearly.

"Soldier's kindness goes hand in hand with fear. If Soldier loses something important again, I'm sure he'll break and go crazy with fear... it doesn't matter and I feel like I'm trying to destroy this country.

Luke swallowed his breath at the meaning of the word.

He is the Kind King.

In order to protect his family, he continues to endure silence, even if the nobles take him lightly, trying to wear stigma.

It was the fear that took away his family when he was ten years old and his first child when he was twenty years old that was eroding him.

Originally, Soldier had no plans to become king.

Above him, the third prince, was an elder brother who excelled in wisdom and a second brother who excelled in martial arts. Soldier was also good with Ji-Yung Martial Arts, but he couldn't get to the two of us, and he didn't even want to hang out with himself.

"I want to be a researcher in the future to help my father and brother improve.

Soluyeh at an early age, who happily talks to Luke the childhood trainer, was nowhere to be found now.

He lost his venerable father and brothers due to the incurable disease of the royal family, and was manipulated and made king in the good of the nobles. Being manipulated even as an adult could not be changed.

Still, Soldier fought at first to do his duty. In addition to Luke, who became the lead butler, and added the lead knight and the lead magician, they fought with the nobles, both on the front and back stage.

In such a fold, the righteous queen, who had been married in a political marriage, had a child. A political marriage, but Soldier took care of his wife and very cute his first child, his daughter.

But when the Lady Dowager conceived her next child, a tragedy befell her. The incurable disease that strikes the royal family has led to the death of one princess, her daughter.

After speaking alone with the minister who had come to express his condolences, Solje changed his attitude and stopped fighting against the nobility. The knight and the magician spoke to Soluyeh many times, but the king's attitude never changed.

And the knight and the magician finally left Soldier's former place. What they sought was a gentle and strong king, not a weak and dark fool.

Luke thought about leaving, but he advised the king to leave. So Luke the childhood trainer figured it out. That he's trying to protect himself, too. That you chose to remain on the throne alone.

So I thought Luke would leave you even if you died.

"Soldier is a gentle king. But if he tastes despair and fear again, he can no longer be king.

Her words were prophetic.

And Luke found out that it wasn't a prophecy, it was a future that could happen.

"So my child will surely be his supporter. But vice versa, there's also the possibility of hunting them down.

And the princess smiled and said to reassure her.

"You're the only one I can ask. Protect Soldier... and stop when you have to.

Yes, she passed away entrusted to her husband's childhood friend, Luke.

Luke looks back at the closed door. Beyond this door, childhood training still fights fear.

If you're at all alarmed, his precious things disappear in an instant. So no matter how hurtful he is, he will not fall and he will not cross the last line. I just keep putting up with everything.

But what if he crosses the line? and Luke thinks.

That's when Luke has to risk his life to stop him. That's what I promised. But there's still something I can do.

(Prince Hershelik, you will surely be an important figure in the future of this country.

Not just for the king.

He felt like his friend, the hope she had left at risk for her life.

So he has to be allowed to survive. What kind of hand did I have to strike for that?

Luke disappeared into the dark hallway to hit that first hand.

Soldier looked at his own hand after sending Luke out. I feel sorry for my slightly trembling hands and shake them on the lights of the fireplace.

When I heard Hershelik had been kidnapped, I felt as if he had been trapped in the ice.

My heart went cold, and if Hershelik came back in the worst possible condition, I wasn't sure I could stay sane.

"It's okay to have this kid even if I'm gone.

Shortly before she died, Solje still remembers clearly the words she whined to herself to imply.

"My share will be with you. I'm sure it will help you.

Saying so, she smiled weakly. It was the opposite of her usual smile.

"So it's okay if I'm gone. Because you have this child…… I love it, Soldier. I love you the most in this world. My kind king………"

At the end of the day she traveled to the garden of heaven.

The child she left behind looked more and more like her as she grew up. The other kids loved him, but he seemed first class loving. That could have been a recoil of sorrow for her gone.

"But kids grow up..."

Pompous and soldier groan.

Now the last prince, only on the inside, was pulling out the princes of old age.

I'm glad that I'm lonely and feeling it.

(I intend to protect it, but it may have been protected at some point.

Reminds me of my last prince earlier.

An eye of determination that did not break his mouth resolutely and tried to move out.

The prince started walking on his own feet, not the baby who was now in danger of standing. All parents can do is watch.

"Your child will be fine..."

Yes, I tell myself.

She was strong. Pierce yourself without fear of anything.

She supported herself when she felt all horror and even being on the spot was painful.
