It was a really pure query. His aide shrugged his shoulders and added a remark to Chises’ query with an expression of ‘Why are you asking such a silly query severely?’

“In fact, they’re very sturdy. They have been so sturdy that it couldn’t be expressed in phrases.”

“Is that proper?”

“Sure. As soon as it returns to its most important physique, a single swish of its forepaw will kill a number of folks.”

“Hmm.”

There was nothing fallacious with what he mentioned. Chises brushed his chin, considering once more. He was effectively conscious that the Emperor had despatched a number of assassins to kill Zagnac. In fact, there have been occasions when he was fantastic although there have been many circumstances the place he injured an arm or a leg every so often.

“Then, why did he get harm?”

“Sure?”

“If he was a dragon, why didn’t he combat again?”

“…What? What does that imply?”

“…Nothing.”

When his aide requested again, Chises shook his head. If Zagnac was a dragon, he didn’t need to get harm. Dragons have been a proud race. There was no manner that such a race would get harm simply to attempt to cover that they have been people.

“…I don’t suppose he’s a dragon.”

“Is that so?”

“Sure.”

After answering briefly, he buried his face within the ebook once more.

His aide, who thought he may get away from it now, additionally buried his head within the ebook with a teary face. Silence fell for a second earlier than his aide spoke once more.

“Your Highness.”

“Why? Did you discover something?”

“N, no. It’s not…”

“Then what?”

He spoke as Chises scolded him. He didn’t like his aide’s hesitant look.

“What?”

“Properly… How about searching for assist from the Princess?”

“The Princess? Who? Are you speaking concerning the First Princess Irinis? She is barely interested by a person’s face. She has no real interest in something apart from that.”

“N, no… The Eighth Princess Livia.”

“…Who?”

Chises’ eyebrows twitched at his aide’s phrases.

Taking a look at his hardened face, his aide paused for a second. The imperial household despised her to such an extent that even mentioning the identify of the Eighth Princess Livia, made them really feel humiliated. Nonetheless, to ask her for assist…?

Chises regarded dumbfounded.

“I’d moderately search assist from a passing canine.”

“However, however didn’t they are saying that when Princess Livia was born, she knew tips on how to do historic magic?”

The hand that was turning the web page stopped this time. He was proper. The truth that Livia had come to such a place now was the results of that.

When Chises didn’t object, his aide gained braveness and continued speaking.

“Properly, then she may know extra about this than we do.”

“…Nonsense.”

Chises snorted.

Though his aide’s phrase wasn’t fallacious, it harm his pleasure to ask for Livia’s assist. Moreover, he felt that if it turned recognized that he had requested assist from Livia, the opposite siblings would simply see by him, and may even take the place of the successor.

“Cease speaking nonsense and simply learn the ebook. In case you can’t discover it, I received’t ship you again.”

“Sure…”

At these phrases, his aide dropped his shoulders and turned his gaze to the ebook he was studying once more. Chises additionally turned his gaze to the ebook, however the phrases his aide mentioned didn’t depart his head. It was fairly credible to say that Livia may know greater than they do.

“Properly…”

“What’s it once more this time?”

“He couldn’t be a god, may he?”

“What?”

Chises’ face crumpled as if he was dumbfounded on the absurd comment.

…A God, he hadn’t even considered it.

His aide repeated it once more.

“A God… God.”

“You don’t suppose I didn’t hear that phrase and requested again, proper?”

His aide smiled vaguely at Chises’ snorting and handed over the ebook he was studying.

“Right here is one thing about God.”

Chises took the ebook he turned over and browse the pages. It contained particulars about God. He didn’t take into consideration god.

What if Zagnac was a god…?

Pondering that, he took his eyes off the web page he was studying and fell into thought. Slightly, the dragon was a extra credible story.

“Why is god pretending to be human?”

“I-I don’t know.”

“…God.”

Though the story was exhausting to imagine, it wasn’t a nasty factor to know in case the unknown occurred. As he completed studying the web page, there was written about God’s realm and those that run errands for God.

As Chises learn the web page, his aide wiped his nostril and uttered with a forceful look.

“Isn’t it superb? I believed it was solely angels who ran God’s errands.”

“What?”

“It’s written there. Those that perform god’s errands are literally each angels and demons. They have been divided into angels and demons solely by human requirements, however in actual fact, they’re the identical beings who run God’s errands.”

“…Angels and demons.”

“Angels and demons are the identical. If this ebook speaks the reality, I pity the satan since solely angels are praised for being good.”

Listening to his aide’s phrases, Chises tutted his tongue and closed the ebook he was studying.

“Cease speaking nonsense and search for extra books. If there are races I don’t learn about, report them immediately.”

“Sure.”

His aide targeted on studying once more at his command. Taking a look at him, Chises unexpectedly glanced on the ebook he had simply closed. Come to think about it, these eyes regarded like a satan… Zagnac appeared to have risen from hell.

“A satan… that’s nonsense.”

Chises shook his head. Nonetheless, his face was nonetheless stiff and there was no smile in any respect. As he unknowingly reached out and opened the ebook he had simply closed, for some cause, he wished to learn the sentence after that.

It was a peaceable afternoon.

“Why on earth do you get pleasure from studying right here?”

“…The daylight coming by this window is simply the correct quantity for studying.”

Azela frowned at Zagnac’s unusual phrases.

There was the examine, the library, and the bed room that was good for mendacity down and studying, however he selected the parlor as a spot to learn. In fact, because it was a spot to welcome valuable friends, he may see the flowers within the backyard from the window, and because it was on the primary ground, it was a pleasant place with loads of mild.

“If somebody out of the blue visits and sees you and me sitting throughout from one another like this, they’ll discover fault with it.”

“Go forward and look.”

“To see me, an escort knight, sitting nose to nose with my employer and having fun with a ebook. Everybody will maintain their stomachs and chuckle.”

Listening to her phrases, Zagnac, who was studying the ebook, took his eyes off it and glanced at her.

“Azela, that’s your drawback. You care an excessive amount of about how others see you.”

“You don’t care an excessive amount of.”

“Get pleasure from somewhat extra freedom.”

“If you’re a human being, particularly if you’re a noble, you haven’t any alternative however to care about how others see you.”

With Azela’s boring tone, he put down the ebook he was holding and, instantly, raised his physique and snuggled his higher physique nearer to her.

The wind picked up as a result of he was shifting quick.

Azela, who was holding the ebook in her hand, was startled and hurriedly lined her mouth as a result of she thought he was going to kiss her as he approached her with a half-closed gaze.

“…What’s fallacious?”

They have been shut sufficient that their nostril may contact. Azela requested in a small voice as she lined her mouth along with her ebook.

“Wh, what?”

“Why are you masking your mouth?”

Saying so, he raised his index finger and tapped the ebook, laughing. Azela blushed and turned her gaze to her proper as if she was caught red-handed regardless of not doing something.

“Properly, simply… I believe I’d sneeze.”

Zagnac drew a straight smile on his lips at her cute gaze.

“If anybody else sees us like this now, would they discover fault with us or seize their abdomen and chuckle?”

“…Slightly than that, they might have a misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding? That’s fantastic.”

Zagnac nodded his head, apparently liking the phrase misunderstanding. ‘So get away earlier than anybody misunderstands,’ Azela mentioned. As she was about to push him away, she may sense somebody strolling into the lounge.

Was it Baharf or the handmaid?

When she was considering so…

“A visitor has arrived.”
