chapter 119
119 – Scene 119# Emperor
*
“Please… .”
That day, what young Lucy saw was her father with his head bowed to the floor.
Her father, Maxim Meikahel, was the emperor, the highest person in the country.
However, the emperor was now begging a man.
“Please save that child… .”
“Please save me… ?”
Looking down at the bowed emperor was a long-haired, handsome young man.
“That is wrong. the emperor Because I will not kill the child.”
“Millim… .”
It was Milliam, Countess Ruelberta, so infamous that even young Lucy had heard of it.
He was a man with an outstanding appearance to the viewer, but his eyes were as cold as ice.
Lucy couldn’t bear to look at him.
No, I couldn’t look away. A ghastly scene was unfolding all around her.
“… Whoops.”
A puddle of blood pooled at Lucy’s feet.
The SS knights in red armor were all slumped on the marble floor.
Those who died with their eyes open, those who were pierced by a spear and stuck on the floor like objects, and those whose limbs were disintegrated and scattered all over the place.
Those who tried to protect the emperor fell one after another at the hands of mysterious maids who covered their eyes with eye patches.
Lucy, in that terrifying scene, had been incontinent for a long time.
“You hid your cute daughter.”
Count Milliam approached Lucy.
I was scared and wanted to run away, but I couldn’t because I was caught by the maid.
Lucy was wearing the uniform worn by young male servants working in the imperial palace.
Milliam said while stroking her short hair once.
“This is why I couldn’t recognize it. I would have thought he would have disguised himself as a man and hid it in the imperial palace.”
“Millim… . please… .”
“Emperor. Do you remember the tragedy of that fall?”
There was not much emotion in Milliam’s voice.
“I haven’t forgotten. Trapped in that fall forever. Even after that, I decided to spare your poor life. Because I believed in the promise to cut off the royal lineage from four generations.”
But his eyes were full of anger.
An eerie anger engulfed the two of them.
“But it looks like you looked at me with a lot of contempt for hiding your daughter in the imperial palace.”
“Please! please forgive me… ! Millium, it’s fine to live as your puppet for the rest of your life! I’ll do anything, please save my daughter… !”
It was a painful scene to see even with the eyes of young Lucy.
His father, Maxim, who always reigned with dignity, is on his knees in front of the Count, who is only a servant, and is praying.
“Don’t worry. As I said before, I have no intention of killing your daughter.”
“Is that really true?”
For an instant, hope spread across Maxim’s face.
Milliam nodded slowly.
“Of course. Your daughter will be able to live as an emotionless doll like ‘they’ from now on.”
“… … !”
Emperor Maxim, who knew what that meant, shouted in a voice close to a scream.
“You are a demon without blood or tears… ! sure so… ! Should I go that far! How can you do that little child!”
“Don’t be mistaken. I am now showing mercy. the emperor If you don’t like that… .”
When Milliam snapped his fingers, a dagger appeared from the maid’s hand next to him.
And that sharp sword was thrown in front of Maxim.
“You just have to cut off the imperial line of Meikahel with your own hands.”
“… what?”
Upon hearing the harsh sentence, Maxim’s face contorted.
“Look at me… . You mean kill my daughter?!”
“Yes. can you do it?”
“can not… . i can’t! As much as that… .”
“Then there is only one option left.”
To Maxim, who was in despair, Milium spoke softly.
“Perhaps it was the power of the emperor? That miracle that can be used only once in a lifetime.”
“… what?”
An authority that only those who become emperors of the empire can use.
Milliam mentioned the miraculous magic that can even bring the dead back to life.
“Take your daughter’s life with your own hands. And if you write the miracle of your life… . Your daughter will be able to come back to life.”
“Millim… Are you telling me to commit suicide?”
“It is not suicide. It is a noble sacrifice.”
Milliam added a condition.
“If you bring your daughter back to life, I will no longer touch your daughter who has been resurrected. of course… . It would be possible if you had the courage to do so.”
Maxim bowed his head.
Lucy realized her father’s shoulders were shaking.
At the crossroads of choice, Maxim eventually picked up the dagger in front of him.
In the first place, there was only one way to save her daughter.
He slowly approached Lucy.
“Lucy.”
“Ah, Obama… .”
“My dear daughter… .”
Lucy never forgot that moment.
“Don’t forgive me…”
Father, the expression Maxim was making. his despair and sorrow. And… . Hatred towards the Ruelbert family.
Lucy still wakes up from terrible nightmares.
Each time, he grabbed her left breast.
Because the wound from being stabbed by my father hurts.
Lucy has had terribly painful nights. Before long, a dark side sprouted from a corner of her heart.

“I, Luna… .”
The Empress of the Night opened her mouth.
“I was born to erase you and the Ruelberta family from the Empire.”
If Lucy is an inexperienced and timid emperor, Luna is a charismatic and authoritative emperor.
Make sure to read from noble mtl com
During the day, she lives as Lucy, and at night, she lives as ‘Luna’, the most ideal emperor personality she thinks.
The unmasked Luna was a girl with alluring eyes like a fox. But it was a beauty that instinctively felt dangerous.
she said, glaring at me.
“First of all, let me compliment you. Count, I even knew that you knew my secret… . I never thought I would know Jim’s ‘name’. To be honest, I underestimated Ruelberta’s intelligence.”
Of course, it wasn’t because of information or anything, but because I knew the original work well… .
I shamelessly opened my mouth.
“Did you know that now?”
“cheeky… . Do you not know humility despite being an aristocrat?”
“I just said it was obvious. Do you feel good when you are praised for breathing?”
“Like this ugly man… Let go! How long are you going to hold my hand!”
Oh, I forgot.
When I obediently let go of her hand, Luna brushed it away in disgust.
Lucy was a weak child.
A girl with an extraordinary mind, but lacking the boldness or insight to lead an empire.
However, even in Lucy’s heart, hatred for the Ruelberta family was nestled.
The name of that hatred was ‘Luna’.
Luna is the second personality born from the heart of Lucy, who always wanted to destroy the Ruelverta family.
That’s why, if Lucy had the personality of death, Luna had the personality of death.
Her personality allows her to save or take the lives of others at the cost of her own.
It was an all-or-nothing personality, but it was clear that it was a threat to me.
So, now that all the secrets have been revealed, Luna has regained her composure. No, more precisely, it was hostility rather than composure.
Luna said as if she remembered.
“huh… . Come to think of it, you probably know that, but through Lucy, I also met a cute hero you cherish.”
That was definitely surprising.
I didn’t know that Lucy was in contact with Wendy.
If Wendy hadn’t told you about her new friend, Luna. If I hadn’t known the name Luna, I probably wouldn’t have noticed.
It can be roughly guessed who helped the emperor secretly enter the school.
But now that wasn’t the problem.
Because the atmosphere I felt from Luna was unusual.
“Lucy seems to like her a lot, but… . My thoughts are a bit different. Did he say her name was Wendy?”
The corner of Luna’s mouth went up.
It was a face that seemed to have had cruel thoughts.
“yes. Jim had an interesting idea. If I slit her little neck and send it to you as a gift-“
“Try it.”
At that moment, the ‘anger’ inside me burst out.
It was so fleeting that I couldn’t restrain myself.
I quickly pressed it with ‘patience’ belatedly, but hot ‘anger’ leaked out.
“If you can, do it.”
