I Became a Dark Knight the Empress Is Obsessed With

99 – Oaths and Mayhem – (1)

The library of the Imperial Palace. A VIP room surrounded by bookshelves.

The warm early summer sunlight shines through the slightly open windows.

Maybe because of the dust rising from the opened old book. Her platinum hair swayed in the strangely milky warm light.

A small girl wearing small glasses and holding a small fist as well as reading a book intently.

It was Lyncia Ayrn.

“Ughhh. Etch!”

She struggled to turn over the bookshelves, scratched her philtrum at the rising dust, and sneezed again. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better to brush it off and read it?

I tried asking questions, but to no avail. It was because Lynxia, who was so engrossed, felt the fact that no one could stop her through her life so far.

Instead, the golden-haired girl next to her stretched her.

“Stop it! Promise, you don’t know that! In the first place, I’m also a gem disease in the book!”

She was ready to throw the book at any moment, but even the Arch Mage couldn’t bear to do that in front of the emperor.

A blonde girl, Seira Lian Tour, leans her back against her back with her book set down.

Then he asked me if I was comfortable with the lonely atmosphere.

“Fried-kun. How the hell do you break that oath? Haven’t you been looking for something?”

“I don’t know either.”

“Looking for Lia in the imperial palace.”

The example is very subtle.

Realizing that she meant nothing when she asked me, Seira stared at the grid on her ceiling.

She was tired at least. She had been sitting in the imperial library for almost eight hours, reading books.

The reason why we came here was to clear up the mess that the former possessor Fried had staged.

Defeat of the oath.

After the incident was over, Lincia naturally asked about the oath, and I answered with all my heart. Then, as soon as Lynxia heard all of my story, her eyes lit up and she started looking for a solution.

And Lynchia had a great acting leader temperament.

That was the reason we were in the Imperial Library now. Even Sae-ra participated, saying she thought it would be fun, but she regretted hitting the ground now.

No one could have guessed that Lincia’s will would last for almost a week.

Because it’s a story related to me, I burn so passionately that I’ve recently reached the point where I even take care of my lodging and meals here.

I don’t know if the emperor of the empire can stop eating and drinking and just read books in the library. Furthermore, everyone must be busy dealing with the disaster of the work meeting.

Come to think of it, I thought I had caught a glimpse of Koreld walking down the aisle almost like a zombie.

“As expected, it doesn’t come out, this time too.”

Lin Xia slammed her bookshelves down and wiped her dusty face with her handkerchief.

She then looked at the pile of books right next to her and let out a small sigh.

“The apostle will attack again, right?”

“I’m sure it will.”

“I don’t have time. If we don’t resolve the oath…….”

When Lyncia made a worried expression, Seira, who was lying down, was delighted.

“It’s okay, Mr. Fried. I’m with you? Can you kill them all? I said I beat them all up last time too. So does your sister.”

I never seemed conceited. In fact, Seira was a person with that level of ability.

If she hadn’t been there in her third act last time, it would have been a catastrophe.

As much as the development is wrong, I have to draw all the numbers that I can’t have. Even if it is a character outside the main story.

As much as that, the presence of Seira Liantour was a strong backing.

It’s a flaw that his personality is a little, no, very strange.

[ Act 4 – Cult of the Moon ]

＞ D – 71

The third act is over and the preparation period for the fourth has arrived. And Act 4 has a reputation as the worst chapter in raising an empress, with Arwen as the boss.

That’s why I had to do my best. I had to break the oath of Fried, the most uncertain element, somehow, but it didn’t come out even when I almost robbed the library.

It’s embarrassing.

Smart.

As I was doing that, I heard a knock.

The side door opened, and a green-haired elf librarian peeked out her face. It was Asaren, a quack wizard.

She whimpered and moved the heavy books to the table. It was a hot day, and sweat was dripping down her face.

“Heh, heh. That’s all there is.”

“If it’s not here, I’ll have to give up actually looking for it in the book.”

Seira said with a strangely happy expression.

I even opened the Forbidden Library, but the harvest is zero. It seems that the imperial family burned all related books after the tragedy of Iscobal.

“I hope there is a treasure among these books.”

Lyn Xia began to read her book while rubbing her eye sockets, perhaps because her eyes were dim. I also brought a moderately thick book and opened it.

“Mmm. Because the break is over.”

As expected, Seira quietly corrected her posture and sat down, as if she was embarrassed to rest alone.

I called Asaren, who was about to leave the room with quick steps, while wiping the dusty bookshelf with my sleeve.

“Ah, Mr. Asaren.”

“…… Yes?”

Because that dwarf has nothing to do anyway.

What I usually do is read boring novels or quacks. Then it would be better to channel those dark tendencies into other productive pursuits.

“How about helping out here at this point?”

“…… Me, me?”

“Yes. You are.”

At those words, Asa Ren put on an expression as if she would shed tears at any moment.

*

“Haaa. There was none, after all.”

Another eight hours later.

In the end, Lincia declared unconditional surrender.

It was a long journey that lasted almost a week, but the end was futile. She couldn’t find any information about her oath, even in her last books that Asa Ren brought back.

“…… hahahaha. I’m just…….”

Asa Ren, who had been forced to work overtime for eight hours, bowed her head as if she were finally freed.

“Mr. Asaren.”

I grabbed him again.

The expression on Asa Ren’s face as she twisted her head around with a creak was really worth seeing.

I pointed to the messy books.

“Could you sort this out? Since you’re a librarian, that’s what you have to do, right?”

“…… Yes, eh.”

“You don’t hate it, do you?”

“Oh, no. I love it.”

Leaving behind Asa Ren, who put away her book with her deathly face, Lynxia contorted her face and slammed her chin into the table.

“You worked in vain.”

“…… hahahaha.”

“Oath… …. What will happen if we don’t do it?”

After muttering that, Lyncia looked at my expression.

“Isn’t Fried anxious?”

“… ….”

“I’m going to die of anxiety right now. Fried looks so calm.”

It was a strangely shooting attitude. He seemed to be in a bad mood.

“Sorry. But, isn’t there a way?”

“I always feel that, but Fried is too optimistic.”

“Sorry.”

“You don’t have to apologize to each and every thing like that.”

Lin Xia swept her table once and continued her words.

“As Freed said, everything will be resolved. Let us work together.”

As she accentuated the word together, Lyncia laughed briskly. When I smiled at her, she smiled, showing her gums.

It felt like her attitude toward me had changed a lot since the third act. She

Should I say she was spoiled.

That was the moment.

Jumping.

The door suddenly opened and Millia entered. She was just about to go out with her book when Asa Ren knocked her on the buttock, causing all the books she was holding to fall to the ground.

“Ugh, ugh. Why only me…….”

Asaren was crying at all now.

Like it or not, Milia looked around her room and saw Seira sleeping on her couch with her legs up.

“Sister, here you are. Do you know how desperately the attendant searched for it?”

“…… Yes? Leah?”

Seira woke up and turned her body over.

Milia let out a sigh, then she said.

“If you are going somewhere, you have to say where you are going and then go. If you came as her father’s substitute, your every move is of great importance to the officials.”

“…… It’s annoying.”

“Ha ha. I’m still not a kid, so I shouldn’t be.”

“Your body is like a child.”

“…… Let’s not talk.”

As I watched the bickering conversation between the two, a smile naturally came to my lips.

It seems that the relationship between the Liantur sisters has also progressed a little as they went through the major events of the Duke’s Council.

In fact, just because Seira didn’t bring up the story of taking Millia to her High Lynx, it was like that.

“Anyway, go ahead. She seemed to be on the verge of turning the entire campsite upside down if she was a little late.”

“…… Hmm.”

Pair.

As soon as they clapped their hands, Seira disappeared.

Spatial shift was also a useful technique.

If Lin Xia’s intelligence stat increases later, she should consider learning.

“Sir Fried, Your Majesty, are you still collecting information?”

Milia then turned her attention to us.

I nodded her head, and Lynxia… ….

“Huh?”

As soon as I met her eyes with Milia, she suddenly hardened her expression, then pushed back her chair.

Then he took an item out of the drawer and placed it on the desk as if to show it.

“… ….”

And Milia’s expression when she saw the thing changed not very pleasantly.

That would be too… ….

From noble mtl dot com

“It’s a dagger.”

Milia muttered.

What Lyncia took out was a dagger with Iscobal’s crest on it. Come to think of it, when she fell into the ditch, she handed it to Lynxia as a symbol of her trust.

Millia stared at the dagger, then turned her gaze to me.

“Isn’t that what I gave you as a gift?”

“… ….”

What was in that gaze was never good will.

Something’s bothering me.
