I’m Not a Hero Like You

4. Have you ever read a romance novel? (2)

“L. I won’t talk too long. Did you know everything?”

“It looks like you were in a hurry.”

Doesn’t back down an inch.

Regardless of status, there could be no compromises, negotiations, or concessions here.

Seras opened fire earlier.

“So what? Are you telling me to just give up?”

The princess was calm as always.

A noble, respectable side.

If you look closely, it’s truly ruthless and even ruthless.

Indeed, Elhermina, the princess herself, would not have such awareness.

Just because it exists, it is an existence that makes the people around you dry up for the reason that it is burdened with a very small and insignificant fault or loophole.

There is no malice.

No coercion, no coercion.

Because its existence is as firm as a law and rule.

“If I do, what if I don’t?”

“… Conversely, by handing him over to me, what if Estina would actively support the imperial family?”

“It’s Woomun.”

“… It won’t be long before my grandfather retires from politics. Wouldn’t that be something to conclude?”

“Are you going to take over that position? It won’t be that easy to continue the position of head of the family with a woman’s body.”

“I’ll hand it over to Kariel.”

Well?

“After Grandpa steps down, we will change our stance to support the imperial family. If you do this, it won’t be a burden on you, your Majesty, Rueld-sama and Ermina-sama. Rather, I wish it would have been my strength.”

“It is easy to say.”

Is there any reason why it should?

The imperial family thoroughly reduces the interests of the subjects, taking them away from time to time, and prefers to be weakened in the long term.

The stronger the power of the servants, the stronger the power of the imperial family means.

This would mean a return to the days of non-believers who returned to violence and selfishness before Berg bore the name of the Empire.

that.

It is another hell, comparable to the invasion of the demon world or the indiscriminate war between foreign countries.

“I’m willing to write a memorandum to prove it if you can’t believe it verbally.”

“Esdina’s retirement vacancy cannot be filled with your discretion. Even more so, even if Kariel becomes your puppet from the front, that is not enough.”

“… … .”

“However, if he who is the center of the aristocratic faction disappears… It will be easy to shake and separate the rest of the ministers.”

It is indeed the idea of a fox.

“But, no.”

“… Why?”

“I can’t hand over Kariel just for that reason.”

“that… they say?”

“It’s good to hear half of it. It is the duty of a leader and the virtue of the royal family to guide and lead the subjects.”

This, this crazy bitch… .

“However, revealing your inner thoughts carelessly like this is indeed a risky gamble. Didn’t you already know that I wouldn’t give up on him?”

“So! You have to be more sincere.”

“Sincerity. okay… Are you serious?”

There, for a moment, the princess closed her chin and was lost in thought with her eyelids closed.

10 seconds like that, 20 seconds.

“understood.”

Elhermina gently lifted her eyelids.

“I must have been mistaken. This is not Countess Esdina’s instruction or intention, it is entirely your own conception.”

“… … .”

“The fact that you used it as a material for persuasion and got even the count to accept it must have been all your determination. Seriously. It really fits.”

Seras sighed inwardly.

Seriously, it’s kind of disgusting.

We haven’t even spoken a few words, but we’ve already reached the point.

It’s always like this.

This is why… .

I don’t want to be submissive.

“It’s good to do it.”

… … ?

what? good? what?

“First of all, making her my husband is a decision. Therefore, if he wishes, I will allow him to have informal association with you.”

“… … ?”

what.

now.

now… … .

What is this crazy bitch talking about?

“Why is your expression like that? Seras. old friend I fully respect you. Therefore, in order not to give up your hopes, we have suggested some compromises. Are you dissatisfied?”

“… Are you saying that now? Are you really crazy?”

“A disrespectful voice.”

Still, this woman, this princess.

From the first meeting until now, his expression has not changed even once, and he has been saying absurd things.

“If he was a woman, and if we were men, this proposal would not be possible. But he is male. Fortunately, both of us are women. So, this proposition is possible. The part I can’t take care of is Seras.

“… … .”

Seriously.

This damn princess, now seriously, that’s the princess herself and Kariel.

and… I thought it would be beneficial for Seras himself, and he proposed it with great enthusiasm.

Since the period of dating is not short, it is a good-intentioned proposal.

… Seras felt it keenly.

As if gnashing your teeth, the half-words came out of their own accord, biting their lips.

“So, are you going to weave them together with twisted blood ties knowingly or unknowingly? Now look at me and tell me to have a child without a father… .”

“I haven’t talked about it until that point, but if you’re determined to do that, I won’t stop you. It will make our relationship even stronger.”

This, this crazy bitch really?!

“You, don’t you have a human heart?! Uh, how can you say something like that casually?! And that! you! If the church knows… It’s not going to end just by digging it up! No, how can you do that casually!”

“I can’t give up. Therefore, since we cannot propose a compromise beyond this, we have no choice but to make this, albeit extreme, proposal.”

that is, that is

Either you give up or you accept this unreasonable altercation.

In a way, as Elhermina said, it was a clear fact that she was making a very big concession.

However, that’s how it goes… .

“Seras. Don’t you know too?”

I.

“I once swore that I would take responsibility for protecting him who went to another country as a hostage instead of me. Even though I couldn’t swear in front of him who left, didn’t you guys clearly observe my promise at the time?”

“You who insisted on protecting me like that! What have you been doing up until now? What the hell did you do to Carl while you were being pushed that far?”

However, the princess was adamant.

Without even a hint of shaking or agitation.

asserted

“He is strong. He is not a man who will lose his light like this. You may hesitate for a while, but even that will quickly overcome you and stand up.”

Seras snorted.

“… You still don’t think to fathom that not everyone is a non-human superhuman like you, right? You really don’t know how many people have been hurt and frustrated by that impudence, and that Kariel belongs to it, right?”

“If you argue that way, what about your original sin, Seras? After all, my uneasy brother and your foolish twin sister, Erath, helped build Kariel’s reputation, my friend. You can’t deny it either. As a result, you, who chose to defend your blood relatives, did you allow such atrocities with the heart of a noble person?”

“That, that! That’s what we’re talking about here… !”

“I have waited a long time indeed. Even more so, I gave you enough opportunities. I guessed your true intentions to some extent, so I waited for you. Whether it was atonement, confession, or apology, I expected the next action to be taken in some way.”

“What? Enough opportunities? Did you say this is your chance?”

“If not, why would I have made this decision now? I am not a filial daughter, to the extent that Her Majesty or the Queen forced me to follow her.”

Hopefully.

Even if it’s not me, if there’s someone who will wrap him up, lead him, and take care of him.

“I was willing to give up even my vows for his happiness.”

Together.

“Who is around him now?”

“… … .”

“In the end, it is complacency. It is laxity. It is negligence. It is ignorance.”

“… … .”

“You’re trying to move only when your foot is on fire? It’s easy, Seras Estina.”

The princess shook her head lightly, and eventually turned her back.

“The moon has set. From now on, it is only the time of the sun. If you are really unfair and resentful, reprimand yourself for being negligent in the past. I beg you, just accept that the hourglass will no longer tip over.”

… … .

… … … .

By doing so.

After a short time, she moved to another place and walked alone in a quiet hallway.

Elhermina thought calmly, half-opening her eyes.

always, as always.

Even if

Even if there are tens of thousands of women who adore and adore him throughout this world and beyond.

Those who have seen that affection scraped together one by one, down to the dust.

“In the end, I will not be able to reach the love that this one body embraces.”

A commotion is also a commotion, but recently, thanks to the Demon King, who has periodically dragged Kariel into her dreams and mercilessly submerged herself in hundreds and thousands.

Leaving the house late at night to take a breather and practice playing the lute had been greatly reduced.

In just a few days, a lot has changed.

Becoming Elhermina’s fiancé.

Even facing the demon king’s ghost and being swung around.

In terms of experience, it felt like not just a few days, but dozens of days had passed easily.

– Sleeping late is not good for growing up.

“… You say you need some stress relief?”

-That’s the irrationality of the intellect.

Time is gold, but if you polish and polish yourself with that gold, why the hell are you wasting your time on a pastime?

“… So what are you saying don’t go out?”

-It’s your choice. Am I in a position to say this or that? Anyone who sees it will know what kind of teacher I am.

“… … .”

One is a former demon king who became a ghost.

One is a descendant of the hero who slaughtered the demon king.

… It was clear that the situation was complicated.

“And if you endure training, you’ll teach me how to play roughly?”

– Because that’s not a big problem.

Whether you roll a person or a slave.

Whether or not appropriate compensation is given determines the activeness of the work.

Violence, fear, and pain are also methods, but… .

‘That’s more troublesome.’

Cursing and craving others is also hard labor.

I don’t know if they’re evil perverts whose temperament is twisted so that their temper and stress are relieved.

-Rather than that, if I had to play with a string instrument, I’d rather play the guitar than the lute.

“Etc?”

-There is such a thing. It’s also a horse power guitar. The tearing electromagnetic sound full of artificiality is so awesome.

“… … ?”

Come to think of it, music and music used to be classified as the exclusive property of demons.

In the aftermath of that, the church used to insist that only human voices were pure.

Musical instruments and oral songs were already deeply rooted throughout the world.

However, it was treated as a culture that was not to be approached by nobles and other so-called noble people.

– They say if we do it, it will be unconditionally evil. Anyway, things that are not inferior.

Most of all, the golden demon king was called a master of art among the demons, even if he didn’t know it well?

Demons who joined the human union and made a big contribution.

It is safe to say that the demonic settlements and exchange cities that settled in parts of the continent were leading the large and small arts of the current continent.

“… … ?”

no way.

I will conquer the continent with culture and art… wouldn’t it?
