I Became the Master of the Empress

60 – Episode 60

When you eat dessert like that.

As always, talk about politics comes up.

“Did you hear what you said? “They say the Grand Duchy is in ruins and Win is about to fall.”

“That’s right. “I hope the unlucky Grand Duke loses this time and His Majesty the Emperor is released.”

“That’s right, the dogs of the Archduke who occupied Roman would also have to come to their senses and kill the Archduke.”

-Finch.

Theodora’s shoulders shake greatly after hearing my bad review.

And…

-Tak!

“You bastard! “What did you say just now?!”

When Theodora suddenly stands up and shouts at the people who are gossiping about me, I hurriedly leave.

“Wow! W… Honey, what are you doing? Could it be that you got drunk after drinking beer?”

I covered Theodora’s mouth as she suddenly spoke up and apologized to the men sitting next to me.

“hahahaha… My wife drank a lot today. She said sorry. “Just talk about what she said.”

“Woof! Woowoowoo!”

I can’t hear what they are saying, but let’s try to leave her place, dragging Theodora, who is struggling.

“Hey young man. Don’t you know that when a hen crows, the family will fall? “A woman must press down with her strength.”

“Puhahahaha! “You’re being ridiculous.”

“If you run out of strength, we will step in and give your wife a real treat…”

-Puck!

I feel like I can’t listen anymore, so I slam my fist into the face of the man who is talking trash.

I speak in a somber voice.

“Who wants to curse my wife?”

1. Drunk patient sitting down with her nose broken.

“This… This crazy guy!”

Then, as I saw the two people attacking me, I hit them on the head with the wooden drinking glass on the table.

“aaah!”

A sudden fight began…

After all this, I graduated from a military academy that the Grand Duchy is proud of.

He’s not superhuman like Valorant or Mary, but there’s no way he’ll lose to a drunk who hasn’t even learned how to fight properly.

-Puck!

Jab lightly and hit the philtrum.

Drunk patient 2 collapses with nosebleeds.

And I grabbed the wrist of drunk 3, who was swinging his fist at me…

-Boom!

Punch it on the floor.

When I took out a gold coin from my pocket and placed it on the restaurant counter, Theodora looked at me blankly.

I say, holding out my hand to her.

“Let’s go, Theodora.”

Thinking that he had to leave her place before the security arrived, he grabbed her hand and hurriedly left her place.

-Tto-gak, tto-gak.

-Tap, knock.

Maybe it was because I left the place in a hurry…

“Haa…”

Theodora’s breathing seems a little heavy, so she stops her steps for a moment.

“Are you okay?”

When I ask her if she’s okay, she calms her breathing and says,

She nodded her head at my words.

Looking at her, she sighs.

I shouldn’t go to that restaurant from now on.

The pork was delicious.

It’s unfortunate, but if I’m caught by the guards, rumors will probably start spreading tomorrow.

The Grand Duke and Emperor, who came out of hiding, beat up the person who criticized them!

What is this secret search for?!

It’s obvious that these headlights will get caught.

But contrary to my worries, Theodora laughs loudly.

“Tsk… Tsk! “You looked great today.”

She smiles brightly.

This guy… Is a dangerous kid.

No matter how drunk they are, how can they be so cheerful when so many of them have broken noses?

When you put delicious chocolate ice cream in your mouth and savor its taste. An unpleasant sound reaches my ears.

“Did you hear what you said? “They say the Grand Duchy is in ruins and Win is about to fall.”

“That’s right. “I hope the unlucky Grand Duke loses this time and His Majesty the Emperor is released.”

“That’s right, the dogs of the Archduke who occupied Roman would also have to come to their senses and kill the Archduke.”

How dare you… Treat my husband like that?

-Finch.

My body is shaking with anger.

Those who criticize Debian, who works day and night for the empire and its people.

What do you know?

Do you know what he is doing for the Empire?

How dare you… A group of mere bookmakers who don’t know anything come together and criticize my husband?

-Tak!

I shout to them.

“You bastard! “What did you say just now?!”

Then Debian wrapped his arms around my shoulders with an embarrassed look on his face…

“Ugh!”

I cover my mouth and scream.

“Wow! W… Honey, what are you doing? Could it be that you got drunk after drinking beer?”

No! I’m not drunk! Why don’t you leave this?!

Not even knowing how I feel, the man called my husband bows his head to them.

“hahahaha… My wife drank a lot today. Sorry. “Just talk about what she said.”

Hey! And you’re still my husband?!

Seeing Debian speaking as if he were so servile, I became angrier and raised my voice, but Debian’s cruel hand blocked my words.

“Woof! Woowoowoo!”

When you tried to drag me back to your seat like that.

“Hey young man. Don’t you know that when a hen crows, the family will fall? “A woman must press down with her strength.”

“Puhahahaha! “You’re being ridiculous.”

“If you run out of strength, we will step in and give your wife a real treat…”

Debian takes its hands off my body.

And…

-Hwiik!

I swing my fist at trash 1.

-Puck!

And then you hear his cold voice.

“Who wants to curse my wife?”

-Excited…, Excited…

He said she was his wife.

This is my first time hearing this name.

Madam…

What is it that makes my heart pound so hard?

Of course, he and I… Are married, so it’s natural.

I feel like my face is burning as my heart beats faster at his words.

“This… This crazy guy!”

That’s how the fight begins.

“aaah!”

Someone is screaming.

I think about Debian easily suppressing trash.

It’s more reliable than I thought… Isn’t it?

Seeing his seemingly extraordinary skills somehow calms my heart.

Otherwise, I feel like my heart will explode.

-Puck!

The man collapses in his seat, his nose bleeding in an unsightly manner, when Devian hits him in the face with his fist.

And finally, he grabs the man’s fist and slams it into the ground.

-Boom!

After that, he takes out some gold coins from his pants pocket, gives them to the counter, and holds out his hand to me.

“Let’s go, Theodora.”

Then he roughly leads me out onto the main street and walks for a while.

-Tto-gak, tto-gak.

-Tap, knock.

Is it a fairly long walk?

I slowly start to feel out of breath.

“Haa…”

That moment.

“Are you okay?”

Devian turns his head and asks if he is okay.

When I nodded to him as if I was okay, Debian sighed as if he was in pain.

It’s fun.

Something reminds me of the hide-and-seek game I played with my older brothers when I was young.

At that time… I was really happy.

Precious memories from my childhood with my older brothers.

The brothers were hiding and were caught by me and looked desperate.

Right now, at this moment, my brother and Debian seem to overlap, and I smile involuntarily.

“Tsk… Tsk! “You looked great today.”

Debian, which fought for me, looks even better today.

“How can you come forward so suddenly?”

I nag her a little, but she just smiles, wondering why she feels so happy.

As she and Roman walk down the street, they see a building that stands out.

“Where is…?”

A building with an impressive large dome.

“It’s an opera house.”

“It’s an opera house.”

I haven’t heard any rumors about an interesting opera being performed recently?

With that in mind, I see people waiting in long lines.

“Oh, come to think of it. “I think I heard there was a Biz performance.”

Beads.

He is a famous composer in the empire.

I heard that he has the talent to be called the genius of the century.

But regardless of his talent, he lives a pretty unfortunate life.

I’ve heard a lot of rumors that it’s going to be very difficult financially…

He makes too much money to pity him.

I heard that he earns the most amount of money among composers.

If that’s the reason he’s poor…

I guess I’m living a life that’s too debauched.

“Shall we look at that?”

When Theodora said with a look of interest on her face, I nodded and headed toward the ticket booth.

I paid 8 gold coins and found the best seat.

“It’s my first opera in a long time.”

I don’t know if I enjoy watching her opera so much that I smile when I see her looking excited from the hallway.

“Really? “It’s been a while for me too.”

It’s probably been about ten years.

I think she went to see her mother often when she was alive. After her mother died, she was locked in a watchtower and had nothing to see because she had to attend the harsh military academy.

With that thought in mind, I open the door to the VIP room, and the stage is brightly visible below.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to have something like popcorn?”

“What is popcorn?”

“There is such a thing.”

I’m not going to explain here what I enjoy eating while watching movies in modern times, so I’m just going to talk about it.

“But do you know that this performance is very unconventional?”

Theodora speaks as she reads the pamphlet in her hand.

“Huh? “How is it?”

Theodora responds to my words.

“Do you know that she is a femme fatale?”

At those words, I shake her head.

“No, I don’t know?”

She looks amazed at my words.

“hehehe… It’s amazing that there are things you don’t know.”

She says I shrug my shoulders at those words.

“I’m human too, so you might not know.”

That moment.

The lights go out…

A red curtain slowly rises with the sound of a violin.
