I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With

Chapter 14

14 – Status – (complete)

I checked Lynchia’s condition.

His gaze was fixed on his toes, and he showed no movement.

“Are you feeling unwell?”

Judging by her red face, she must have a fever.

In the actual raising of the Empress, Lyncia used to get sick with random probability. If left unattended, the dead end will unconditionally rise, causing the player to grab the back of the head.

However, there was no abnormal condition to her status.

It’s strange.

I reached out and put my palm on her forehead. It was a bit hot, but not serious.

Lyncia’s wide-open eyes resonated wildly.

“I don’t think you have a fever.”

“Ah, ah…”

“What are you doing right now!”

Then Melina sighed and slapped her hand on Lynchia’s forehead.

It doesn’t hurt much, but it feels bad.

Melina shot, bloodshot on her forehead.

“How dare you touch the princess’ jade body! No matter how much you are a guardian knight, you know the extent.”

“……sorry.”

Just like a younger brother, I inadvertently committed it.

Come to think of it, Lyncia is the person who will become the empress of the empire. No matter how much I was escorted, I wasn’t one to touch carelessly.

Melina was looking at me with almost killing eyes.

When I saw that, I felt suspicious.

Why would a person who cares for Lincia so much betray her?

what the hell happened

“No, Melina.”

It was Lyncia who took care of the situation first.

She tidied up her tousled bangs and looked up.

Her face was still red, but her expression had regained her composure.

“I’m fine now. I think I was a little nervous.”

“Is that so.”

Lynchia would soon be put to the test at the Council of Elders.

It was only natural that he was nervous as he was ahead of the gig.

“Thank you for your concern.”

After saying that, Lyncia smiled slightly.

The figure was beautiful, and above all, it was fierce, so I relaxed my mouth.

Of course, Melina still had that insect-bitten expression on her face.

You are scorned in the slightest.

Mannani’s life was hard.

As with the game, there were no mishaps like raids on the way to the convention center.

After going round and round for nearly an hour, the carriage finally arrived at its destination, which took 20 minutes on foot.

“It’s an arrival.”

Hearing the coachman’s words, he opened the side door and saw a building boasting enormous majesty.

At first glance, the oval-shaped building resembles a baseball field.

No, it would be more correct to call it the Pentagon.

In any case, the size of the ignorant. I was expecting it, but I was inadvertently overwhelmed.

This was the stage and venue for the first act of Raising the Empress.

When I got off the carriage, I saw Milia and Rowan, who had arrived first and were preparing to escort me.

Their eyes focused on Lincia as she got out of the keg carriage.

“Ahhh.”

Suddenly, Rowan groaned.

Then he hurriedly dragged his robe and ran, kissing her hand and bowing his head.

“Ooooh!”

“……Yes?”

Lynchia flinched in embarrassment, but Rowan did not stop.

“Princess Lynchia, are you safe? …Ah, the history of the empire is still going on! It’s truly a miracle bestowed by God!”

“Hey, who are you?”

“Ah! I’m late in introducing myself. I’m Rowan Cassier, the torture wizard of the imperial family. I’ve served the emperor for nearly 20 years. I must have known the princess a few times when I was young, but it’s probably hard to remember.”

“……sorry.”

“No. There’s nothing to be sorry about. It’s only natural since I was young. But! I, Rowan, can’t help but marvel at seeing you grow into such a flower-like maiden.”

Was he such a character?

It was an unexpected look.

After all, there was no dialogue in the game.

After the first act, it becomes air like a ghost, so you can’t see it.

“The disaster on National Day is truly regrettable. I, Rowan, who failed to protect my lord are guilty of a great deal. You must be resentful. Please hit this foolish me once.”

“……I don’t resent you.”

“No. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. You can resent it.”

“It’s okay…”

Lynchia looked at me with an expression asking for help, but she averted her gaze.

Because something seemed to bother me.

Eventually, after a few minutes, Lyncia was able to escape Rowan’s grasp.

The staggering figure with a bewildered expression reminded me of a wet kitten.

“thank you for your effort.”

“……It’s hard.”

With a sigh, Lyncia came and stood in front of me.

In response, Millia, who was next to me, saluted her.

“I’m glad you’re safe, Your Highness.”

“That’s…”

“I am Guardian Knight Milia Liantour.”

“…”

silence for a while.

Milia bent down and waited for Lincia’s next words, but she kept her mouth shut and only stared at the back of her head.

“Milia Liantour.”

“That’s right.”

Lyncia repeated Millia’s name once. Millia looked at her eyes, but Lynchia was still the same.

Mouth that does not fall.

In the end, Millia had no choice but to step back awkwardly as she was bent down.

“Why is the princess like that? Did I do something rude?”

“I do not know.”

Milia asked in tears, but I shrugged my shoulders.

It’s not that I really don’t know.

Is it the aftereffects of my conversation with Rowan?

Strangely sharp, but suddenly become kind, don’t they shout out loud, or become cold like this?

Today’s Lyncia had quite severe emotional ups and downs.

Guided by the late administrator, we walked into the conference hall.

After passing through the entrance, the outdoor passage continues.

The aisle was about as wide as two adult men with their arms outstretched.

In the end, because of the narrow road, we had to walk in one line, and I was in charge of the last.

“Come to think of it, Princess Lynchia must be coming to this conference hall for the first time.”

“Yes.”

“Because the Senate Council is rarely convened. This is the first Senate Council meeting to be held in 30 years. By the way, the reason the last meeting was convened was to subdue the worst necromancer, but that necromancer…”

“Incredible.”

“……Hmm. That, that’s right.”

The administrative officer continued to throw a hwadu to lighten the atmosphere, but Lincia’s response was lukewarm. No, it was rather sharp.

Seeing this, the administrator broke out in sweat. Maybe he was going through 50,000 internal conflicts, as if he hadn’t acted too presumptuously.

I don’t know why Lyncia is suddenly like that. Did you come to puberty?

In the end, when the main character was silent, only the sound of silent steps continued in the aisle.

And as I headed towards the end of the endless road, I kept recalling my memories from the game.

‘It’s only from now on.’

It reminds me of the first time I encountered raising a queen.

The ending I saw for the first time also floated to the surface of my consciousness.

A dead end that blows away the players’ goosebumps to Andromeda in the first playthrough.

If I remember right, I’m sure it will come out of here.

The aisle gradually began to widen and a circular space appeared.

What I saw in front of me was a huge three-story high door. Above the door hung a statue of a roaring gargoyle with its wings spread wide.

Also, an empire is an empire. The scale is different.

“Oh oh.”

A few of the attendants and Millia couldn’t help but admire the gateway.

Of course, I did the same, but I soon regained my composure and took a few steps back.

rattle.

Rumble.

The gate slowly opened with a heavy sound.

As the two doors intersected, the gap slowly opened, and light began to seep in between them.

The amount of light that leaked out was intense, probably because of the difference in brightness between inside and outside the gate.

My eyes were filled with white light.

So no one could tell what was going on around them.

“after.”

In that situation, I was measuring my timing.

I opened my eyes as much as I could and looked around the bright room.

The escorts were caught off guard by the overwhelming sight of the giant gates slowly opening, like giants entering and leaving.

close by

Then the door was half open and there was a loud noise like a strand being cut.

slowly now

I hurried on.

The place he was heading to was Lynchia’s seat.

“Look out.”

I pushed the obstructive attendant away, grabbed one of the soldiers, and threw it backwards.

“what!”

“Sir Fried! What are you doing now!”

I could hear the sound of soldiers rushing in front of me.

But I didn’t care and walked towards Lincia.

The restraining soldiers were quickly hurled to the ground.

My steps soon became galloping.

Before long, it arrived in front of Lyncia.

“……Sir Fried?”

Lyncia’s embarrassed face.

“Excuse me for a minute.”

“Yes?”

Lynchia asked in a shrill voice.

At that moment, I heard a crackling sound from above.

There was no time to hesitate any longer.

I grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled her into my arms.

Then he threw his body and retreated backwards.

“How dare you touch the jade body! It’s reckless!”

The administrator shouted with a red face.

the next moment.

cocoa light.

A ripping sound was heard, and an object the size of a house slammed into the spot where Lincia had been.

Its identity was the gargoyle statue at the top of the gateway.

The gargoyle with its wings spread wide received the force of gravity and fell with formidable destructive force, shattering with a terrifying roar.

Whoops.

Asbestos fluttered, blurring the surroundings.

It sounded like someone’s screaming.

Before long, Rowan’s gruff voice rang through the room.

“Damn it! Get down everyone!”

As soon as I finished speaking, a light blue protective shield wrapped around us in a dome shape with a quiet vibration.

In the aftermath, all the stone dust was gone, and only then could the son-in-law be distinguished.

Rowan had stretched out his hand to the sky and was using protective magic.

Milia was preparing to strike the sword with her posture as low as possible.

The attendants crouched down and were trembling for fear of being harmed, and the soldiers who were pushed by me and rolled on the floor couldn’t hide their amazement.

“Are you okay?”

“…”

Lynchia, who was held in my arms, looked at the fallen gargoyle statue with a white expression.

“Hey Fried! Is the princess all right!”

The first to run was the administrator.

Soon after, Melina ran in a hurry and checked Lynchia’s condition.

Of course, thanks to being picked up and carried on time, her body was fine. Even the splinters that jumped out didn’t reach Lyncia because she was wrapped around her body. I couldn’t even blink my eyes because I was just so shocked.

“Your Highness is in danger! Get him inside quickly!”

“What, what is this!”

The attendants also grasped the situation and quickly made fun of themselves.

The murmur grew, and servants started running from inside the conference hall.

All of them were bewildered as if they hadn’t even thought that the stone statue would fall.

I picked up a fragment of a gargoyle’s wing that had fallen to the ground.

Holding the piece of stone, I stare at the half-open gateway.

To be precise, the darkness that was watching us from there.

“The welcome was quite harsh.”

President of the Senate, Edwin Paleid.

And the boss of Act 1.

This must be the work of that bastard.
