Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom

The Travis family’s mansion.

Luca Rogers was taken without knowing why and had to stay immobilized in Travis’s villa for a while.

“Damn it, damn it!”

thud!

He hit the table with his fist and continued biting his nails.

“What do we do? I need to see Emily!”

Stirring around the room restlessly, he turns the doorknob roughly, then gives up and goes back.

“Oh dear!”

He lifted his chair and was about to smash it against the window, but hesitated and then put it down again.

Looking out the window, Travis’ soldiers are patrolling the yard down there.

Even if you break the window and escape, there is no way to avoid their eyes at this height.

“how how… , What should I do!”

thud! thud! thud!

As if he couldn’t control his emotions, he eventually broke the table.

“ha… … .”

Inside his torn clothes, the traces of demonic energy engraved on his body grew larger and larger, covering more than half of his upper body before he knew it.

Black magic shimmered in his eyes.

“aaa!!”

As they started throwing tables and chairs and everything, the door opened with a loud noise and the butler came inside.

“Luke! What are you doing! If you do this, we are also ok… … !”

Grabbing the butler’s neck, Luca lifted him up and threw him at the bed.

thud! With a loud noise, the butler hit the corner and rolled on the ground.

Luca went over to the groundless butler and rummaged through his pockets.

“Here you are.”

Then, kicking the still motionless man into the corner, he went out of the room and locked the door.

No one could be seen in the hallway, as if the butler was managing this place alone.

Tadadat.

I ran down a short hallway, reached the stairs at the end, and looked down.

I hear servants coming and going.

If it goes down like this, it’s only a matter of time before they get caught.

In Luca’s troubled gaze, the passage through which the laundry was dropped came into view.

‘This is it.’

He put his head in and looked down, then put his body into it.

He slipped and landed on the laundry full of the musty smell, and opened the entrance door through his clothes.

inside in the dark. It seems that no one is there.

‘good.’

After coming out of the narrow hole and checking the surroundings, I rummaged through my clothes, changed into the servant’s outfit, and opened the door.

There is a staircase right in front of you, and to the right is a room where the servants rest.

Someone’s voice is heard through the slightly open door.

“Listen, Kate. I have delivered to Princess Jane the personal letter from the first prince that you stole from Luca Rogers.”

Luca Rogers, who was trying to get to the ground quickly before anyone came, stopped at the unexpected content and peeked through the crack in the door.

Those inside are not servants, but Cohen Travis and Kate Travis.

‘Why are those two here?’

The fact that the two of them were here at this time, when the servants were not using the place, meant that they had something secret to talk about, avoiding the eyes of others.

‘Princess Jane has the letter?’

It was something I simply couldn’t pass up.

Luca Rogers snuggled up behind the door, pricking his ears.

“At this banquet, Princess Jane will expose the fact that the first prince conspired with the black magician and solidify her position as the third prince. okay? This has to be done secretly, without anyone noticing.”

“All right. Great-grandfather.”

“Listen carefully, Princess Jane will wait in her room until the banquet begins and the coming-of-age ceremony ends, then appear at the banquet and present the letter to the King as evidence. Until then, you must protect Princess Jane.”

“All right. What will Luca Rogers do?”

“That guy? They should be locked in a room and not allowed to go to the banquet. He must never run away.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

Luca covered her mouth and moved cautiously up the stairs.

I had to somehow escape and tell this shocking fact.

If that letter is revealed, the position of the Rogers family as well as the first prince will be greatly shaken. Even more, he himself could be summarily executed on the spot.

‘sh*t! sh*t! sh*t!’

He gritted his teeth and climbed up.

Fortunately, there was no one on the first floor of the annex.

I ran straight to the entrance, opened the door, and went outside. Fortunately, it was difficult to easily check who was around because of the darkness.

He roamed the mansion’s yard and headed for the entrance, avoiding the soldiers patrolling.

‘Two gatekeepers, one dozing and one… … , Someone called and went somewhere. What a windfall!’

If there is only one person guarding the entrance, you can somehow break through and escape.

Even if the sleepy one wakes up, just kill him and leave.

It was an opportunity that would never come again.

Luca waited for one of them to disappear from sight, then ran to the entrance.

“eww… hmm?”

The doorkeeper, who had been dozing, opened his eyes.

‘No luck, no support! I didn’t even get close, why are you opening your eyes and making a fuss!’

Luca ran at him while swearing in a stretch, as if he couldn’t even remember his luck from a moment ago.

His fist shook with energy, and he grabbed the gatekeeper’s face and slammed him into the wall.

“Cheuk!!”

“Go back to sleep! You idiot!”

Luca Rogers ran out of Travis’ mansion, spitting in the face of the gatekeeper who had fallen to the floor.

“ha… , ha… … .”

He ran for a while, breathing heavily.

Looking back, no one seemed to have followed him yet.

The magic in his eyes subsided again.

“Heh, hehehe! We must run away quickly!”

Continuing to check behind him, Luca Rogers disappeared into the desolate city.

And two people watching him from the alley.

“Shall I follow you?”

“done. Even if you follow them, it will be difficult to find the location of the warlocks. The banquet will begin soon, so you should prepare soon.”

“All right.”

After bowing to Cohen, Kate disappeared.

Cohen, who was watching the street on the other side of the street where Luca Rogers disappeared, twisted his lips and turned around.

Time passed quickly and the banquet day approached.

Brilliant Kingdom, the 6th and 3rd princess Miriam Hertia of the Hertia royal family.

A banquet to celebrate her coming of age is held in the kingdom today.

Numerous people lined up to enter the kingdom.

The nobles of the Brilliant Kingdom, as well as the powerful nobles of the Northern Rosaria Kingdom and the Eastern Baran Empire, as well as the archbishop of the Holy Kingdom, were here to congratulate Miriam.

“Miriam, they are all here to congratulate you, so don’t be cold like you usually do, and greet them with a smile and talk with them.”

“yes. Brother.”

“Be polite in front of people.”

“All right. Your Highness the 1st Prince.”

Before Lev Hertia went to meet the people gathered at the banquet hall, she warned Miriam and left first.

It was because he had to greet the guests as the first prince before more people gathered in earnest.

When I opened the door and entered the hallway, Louise’s figure caught my eye.

The two of them stopped after checking each other.

After fixing his clothes with a shallow smile, Lev approaches Louise.

“Are you going to the banquet hall?”

“Yes, brother.”

“Yes, in a formal setting, act appropriately.”

“I know. But isn’t this the place to be formal?”

At Louise’s answer, Lev snorted and tapped him on the shoulder.

“That too. That’s what I’m saying, brother. No matter how hard a fool tries, he is just floundering in the air. Don’t work hard on useless things, get stuck in a corner and swing your favorite sword vigorously.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. older brother.”

“You’ve never lied before.”

Lev, walking past him, said a few words and disappeared into the banquet hall.

Louise twitched her eyes and followed him to the banquet hall.

A banquet hall consisting of a spacious first floor with a raised pulpit at the center end and a second and third floor with a hole in the middle.

Food and liquor are placed all over the place, and servants are busy moving and quickly refilling empty glasses and food.

Nobles gathered everywhere to exchange greetings and build friendships.

The first prince, Lev, and the second prince, Alan, approached the high-ranking nobles and made friends constantly, and Louise, unlike in the past, dealt with the nobles diligently.

In the middle of the banquet that was getting more and more ripe, the king went up to the podium with his daughter, Miriam.

The attention of the nobles was focused, and congratulatory applause for the coming-of-age ceremony resounded throughout the banquet hall.

“My name is Miriam Hertia.”

While everyone on the 1st floor as well as those on the 2nd and 3rd floors were looking at Miriam.

Luca Rogers, who attended the banquet late, went up to the third floor and looked around for someone.

‘Damn it, where is it!’

Carefully examining people’s faces in case he ran into Travis’ humans, he moved his head diligently when he found someone and opened his eyes.

‘Looks like that!’

A middle-aged man leisurely looking at Miriam from the first floor, leaning against the railing on the second floor.

He hurriedly went down to the second floor, but hesitated and bit his nails.

‘Kate Travis? Why is that b*tch over there! Damn it!’

If you go down to the 2nd floor, it is obvious that you will be noticed by that woman.

“Suck!”

When Kate suddenly lifted her head and looked at the third floor, Luca hurriedly sat down on the floor and hid herself.

Then, when he raised his head and looked down, Kate was looking down as if she had never done that.

‘I don’t have time!’

While Luca Rogers was fidgeting on the third floor, the coming-of-age ceremony ended quickly, and Kate left as Miriam went among the nobles.

‘This is the time!’

Luca Rogers went to the second floor to avoid Kate’s eyes.

There, a middle-aged man was still enjoying his leisure time, sipping wine.

“Isn’t it time you were like this?”

Frowning at Luca Rogers’ sudden words, he turns his head back and says.

“We’ve unleashed our followers to find the location, so news should come soon. wait.”

“But if the coming-of-age ceremony ends before that, won’t it be a big deal?”

“Don’t be in a hurry. If you don’t even know where you are, moving around will only raise suspicion.”

As the two are having a private conversation, a servant approaches and offers them a drink and a glass.

“Do you need a drink?”

“Okay, give me more.”

“All right.”

Again.

The servant opens his mouth as he watches the red wine slowly flowing down.

“This wine is very much liked by the princesses. It is characterized by a deep flavor and a heavy taste. Especially with meat from the north, you can enjoy it more harmoniously.”

“is it? Thank you.”

The servant bowed his head and stepped back.

A man slowly turning the wine and savoring the taste.

Looking at him like that, Luca chews his lips as if frustrated.

“egg plant.”

The man kept his glass still, turned and headed for the stairs.

“yes? where… … .”

“Didn’t you just hear everything?”

Luca didn’t understand what he was talking about.

“It is a restaurant. A freezer is necessary to preserve the quality of meat that goes well with wine, especially meat from cold regions in the north.”

“What do you mean by that?”

The man, who clicked his tongue low as he watched him speak in frustration, left the conference hall where the banquet was being held.

“I’m assuming it’s the building next door where Princess Jane supplies the banquet hall, and it’s also near the restaurant.”

“hehehe, is that so?”

The man grabbed the passing servant as naturally as possible.

“I want to go to a restaurant, where should I go?”

“If you want anything, we will bring it to you.”

“No, it’s because I want to eat the juicy northern meat that has just been trimmed.”

“If you enter this building and go straight into the hallway on the right on the second floor, there is a restaurant in the room at the end of the hallway. No one is using it right now, so it probably won’t be ready, but I’ll go and get it ready.”

“It’s okay. You must be busy, do your work. I will go and tell you.”

The servant bowed his head with a moved face, thanked me, and left.

Luka stuck out his tongue at the man’s false appearance without blinking an eye.

“egg plant. To kill Princess Jane.”
