I Tamed a Tyrant and Ran Away

*** 

The next night. 

Charlize had already returned to the mansion. Dylan seemed disappointed as if he had to stay longer in the Imperial Palace, but the mansion was comfortable.

‘It’s been a while since I wielded the sword.’

The day she defeated all the wizards who attacked Rapine, the forest of monsters. Recently, it was probably the last day.

With her eyelids lowered languidly, Charlize swept the blade of her sword with her finger.

It was a sword that the Rapine clan offered to Charlize a few days ago as a thank you. A sword engraved with a silver pattern on a peculiar black blade.

Even if the sharp standing blade touches the skin directly, it does not cut. 

There were no drops of blood.

‘As soon as I know the base of the secret magic tower is.’

With this sword. 

Them. 

The moonlight shone through the open window. The clear, fine skin sparkled white.

If anyone had seen it, it would have been breathtaking regardless of gender. 

Charlize, who would be fascinating even if she stood still, especially the way she touched her sword. She was like a painting.

The cold, tranquilized murderous look was strangely elegant like a pearl in a calm sea.

“…Hi.”

Charlize greeted them slowly. It was because the fairies appeared in front of her.

They had a small and cute body, but each face was visible enough to tell them apart. They were all fairies with blushing faces.

Looking at Charlize, who greeted slowly, the fairies- the ancient gods rushed to set an example.

<Kiera.>

<Are you mad?>

<Because of us.>

In the blink of an eye, the ancient gods seemed attracted to Charlize. 

For Charlize, the alluring black suits her perfectly. The ancient gods roamed slowly around Charlize.

If the angry Charlize wielded her sword, someone would die immediately. Even God cannot escape the sword of Charlize.

“How can I be angry?”

Of course, there were many questions. They left Charlize alone even though she misunderstood herself as the evil god.

‘But it was me who sealed the memory.’

Even when the ancient gods said they could bring them all back, Charlize refused. If all the memories are recovered, she is afraid that it will cause the completion of the evil god.

And it is true that the ancient gods that appeared after she became Kiera revered Charlize as a god, but they never used the word ‘evil god’ exactly. 

<But ‘that’.>

<We didn’t open that.>

That. 

Is it Kahu?

“Does the evil god wake up when you open Kahu?”

<…> 

The fairies did not answer, but Charlize was not disappointed.

“I knew from the beginning that you were only giving me limited information, so I don’t blame you guys. But now it’s hard to trust you.” 

Charlize said, raising her sword. 

Although it was a very large sword for the Lady to wield, it was easy for Charlize. 

It was far from the posture described in the swordsmanship textbook, but her freewheelingness was as perfect as the god of death. 

Charlize turned her head away from the fairies. Her ash-blond fluttered in the air. 

<We promise.>

<We won’t touch ‘it’.> 

The fairies begged with tender voices.

It’s a promise…

Charlize was also helped by the ancient gods. In a small way, before the swordsmanship contest, they help her to disguise herself as a man. They sprinkled fairy dust and made Kiera’s wish come true.

‘I saw Dylan reaching out to Kiera in my dream. I don’t know why you made me dream like that.’

It was useful to act like Charlize when she was away or to deliver the letter to Ronan or Rapine without anyone noticing. 

<Even the memories of ‘it’.> 

<To show you.> 

<Please allow us.> 

The fairies flew in front of Charlize again and whispered. Kahu’s memory. She had to find out.

‘He hasn’t woken up yet.’

The Rapine clan has said that they will thoroughly protect Kahu. At the same time, they said he fell into a very deep sleep and could hardly wake up.

It’s already been two days. 

There was no reason to refuse the fairies’ voluntary promise. There was just something she had to ask. 

“What am I?”

She said she wouldn’t care what her identity was, but she had to ask anyway. 

She thought they would answer her now. The ancient gods looked at each other’s eyes and lowered their heads. 

<Kiera is.> 

<The one who became a god in a human body.> 

<The one who is just a miracle.>

“Is that all?”

<We serve Kiera.>

<It’s always an honor.> 

“…”

Charlize put down her sword.

The fairies were much more cooperative with Charlize than usual.

Charlize asked softly.

“Then, before I ran away for the second time, why did you say that Ehyrit’s real pieces were dangerous and you didn’t like him?”

<It’s not that we don’t like the piece.> 

<We didn’t like ‘it’.> 

<The piece was stained with ‘it’.> 

“What?”

Charlize asked.

She had no interest in keeping a straight face. That was shocking.

Why, Dylan, whom she tried to protect so much. 

What does that mean with stained? What happens when it’s stained?

Payne said, ‘If the real piece of Ehyrit gets stained by the evil god, then it’s over.’ 

Her eyes turned white.

The reason Dylan was stained black could be guessed. And as soon as she realized it, it came back with a bigger shock.

Perhaps every time he met Kahu, the evils were piled up on Dylan. And after Charlize’s first escape, he emptied the Empire for three years.  Lucy had informed that the emperor often had private meetings with Kahu. 

Apparently, the reason why he had a private meeting with Kahu was because he needed someone to talk to under the subject of Charlize.

‘If only I hadn’t run away.’

Dylan had no reason to see Kahu so often.

So, Ehyrit’s real piece would not have been completely stained black.

Charlize was quite shocked. Does that mean that the actions she did to save Dylan put him in danger? Her whole body trembled.

She felt like she was going to lose her mind with a vicious murderous intention. She had never been so emotional since she was born.

“Is the stain turning black?”

When Dylan became a complete tyrant and when Ehyrit’s real pieces were corrupted by the evil god. It might match.

Charlize’s voice became cold. If there was anyone right in front of her, they would have been cut with a sword because of her anger.

<The piece, he will never come back again. There is little chance of him coming back.>

The fairies looked up and said.

She knows. That the ancient gods are indistinguishable between good and evil.

They just glanced at Charlize, who was unable to control her energy. A look of anxiety was read.

The fairies didn’t say anything. Charlize moved without realizing it. No, she just moved without knowing how to move. 

She didn’t even know where she was going. Her sight just changed every time she breathed out. Her steps moved. The sword was full in her hand. She has to swing it. She had to kill him. That’s all she thought about.

“…” 

Probably the Alperier shouted, where are you going? She didn’t answer.

She can’t keep track of the secret magic tower, so she’ll go to the mansion and take a break. Payne followed. She avoided it because it bothered her. She didn’t deal with it.

It was outside the mansion. It was a monster forest. It was the village of Rapine. She searched the building.

When she came to her senses after a while, she was already in front of Kahu.

‘When did I get here already?’ 

Charlize didn’t even know when she asked herself. 

The Forest of Monsters, Rapine. It was so easy and simple for Charlize to break in alone, overshadowing her promise to protect Kahu thoroughly. 

At one point, no one could even approach Charlize. 

Kahu, who was in front of her, was lying on the bed. Charlize could not hear anything. As if she were deeply submerged in the water.

Only Kahu, who fainted and could not wake up, could be seen. Anything else. It wasn’t important.

<Kiera, shall we open the memory of this?> 

She didn’t feel anything when the fairies talked to her. Charlize was losing control. She couldn’t control her energy and began to spread everywhere. 

Charlize’s energy eroded everything. She just wanted to kill him. Evil spirits. Unlike those of the black evil god, it was pure and black with energy like darkness.

Charlize raised her sword. She has to kill him. Kill Kahu, Dylan-

‘Kill it.’

For a moment something rushed out. It hugged Charlize from behind. 

Due to Charlize’s overwhelming and expansive energy, even Rapine’s building using high-strength stones was flying away. 

Even strong buildings that would not be destroyed by typhoons or earthquakes were also shattered.

All the ancient magic circles hung for protection were destroyed. No one could come close.

It was literally the eye of a storm. Regardless of Charlize’s will, the surroundings were devastated by the anger that had already been eaten.

“…Don’t do that, please.”

Lucy hugged Charlize desperately with a trembling body.

She was afraid. This strength is beyond the realm of human beings. She was scared of Charlize. But she had to stop her while trembling. She had to.

Charlize was so distraught that she could not even feel the passage of time, but Lucy had already accepted the urgent change in the situation.

‘She’s trying to kill Kahu.’

Payne urgently asked for help and ran to her. And, the people who witnessed Charlize were shocked. 

She was driving the surroundings to destruction with energy far beyond human abilities. Was it like this when she was Kiera in the past?

There was only death everywhere. 

Charlize was a monster to Lucy from the beginning. While she was immediately convinced when she heard that she was an evil god, she was shocked to hear that she was also a human.

In fact, to Lucy, Charlize had been a human ever since. Since when did she like her?

“You are human.”

Lucy said, and she thought she had to stop Charlize first. All she can think about is how to soothe the wild Charlize. 

For someone, in fact, Charlize would feel guilty if she buried the blood of someone innocent.

Lucy didn’t want Charlize to get hurt anymore. She hoped that Charlize’s soul would be at ease.

“You are neither a tool nor a sword.”

At first glance, Charlize seemed to have stopped at the desperate cry. Charlize, who was already consumed by the energy, seemed to have heard Lucy’s words for a moment.

“You’re human.”

Lucy’s body trembled. It was fear, compassion, and affection. 

Lucy was the guild leader who ran the assassination guild. Naturally, she was insensitive to darkness as she made money from someone’s death.

But now, she hasn’t received an assassination quest for a long time. At first, she turned down Charlize’s request. She then turned down a request for Charlize’s family. 

She only refused because she was afraid of Charlize, but now she has been rejecting all assassination requests.

It was entirely due to Charlize. She felt that Charlize had given her permission not to walk in the dark anymore. 

‘I don’t know how to describe it.’

Anyway, thanks to Charlize. She wanted to pay her back, she wanted to give back. May Charlize escape from the darkness like herself.  May she no longer be entangled in the death of others.

“I think it’s right for me to do this, but I’d rather you ask us to do it. At least let Payne do it. Give someone else an order. You know us, right?”

Lucy’s voice was filled with tears. 

She was choked with tears. Please.

“You’re not like a blood-stained sword for that person.” 

Lucy begged with all her body to stop.
