Dylan thought hard to have Charlize.
'I shouldn't judge Master with common sense.'
And a conclusion was reached.
Charlize's behavior. It is far from a behavior that may exist in the world or have a realistic basis.
'I judge with common sense, but I miss Master.'
Charlize's sword, Charlize's whereabouts. Even Charlize's mind. It was always beyond Dylan's point of view.
First of all, Charlize should not be judged by standards or from the outside.
Then, how should Charlize be judged?
'Now I think about it. The existence of the Master himself is absurd.'
Dylan's eyes narrowed.
Charlize is. He was a genius who had all the unrealistic talents of the world.
Even if it was said that the blood of the Grand Duchess flowed through her extraordinary beauty.
Perfect swordsmanship that easily crossed the limits of the master. Knowledgeable aspects in all areas. Insights that penetrate information not written in the book.
The more he thought about it, the more unreasonable it became.
"Don't you think there's someone else like the prince?"
Charlize says it when she breaks down the boundaries of Dylan, who is still a boy.
“A genius like a prince who can understand princes.”
Back then, he was young and was persuaded by Charlize's words.
Look back now.
'There is no genius like me.'
At first, it will be like that.
It is not arrogance, but natural self-objectification.
Dylan excelled in whatever field he did for the first time. The fact that he was good at everything was already far beyond the level of a human.
However, Charlize was out of the question.
Wh why? And how did he get out of the question?
"Something important is missing."
That's why Dylan doesn't understand Charlize.
This isn't the only strange thing about Charlize.
First, why did Charlize decide to become Dylan's teacher, who had completely hidden her existence?
"It's as if he knows me well."
Second, Charlize became the child's teacher just before the 7th concubine died. There was no better time to break the boy's vigilance and win his heart. So is that a calculation or a coincidence?
'Because Charlize participated in the swordsmanship competition and asked for Heelu's potion as a desire to win.'
Maybe he should have been thoroughly examined and questioned.
What are you thinking?
Probably, the death of the 7th concubine. Did you know that before?
'Charlize's anger towards the Empire was also strange.'
It was as if he hated the empire itself. In particular, a clear sense of revenge was shown for the late Emperor. Therefore, Dylan reneged on his promise to Charlize on the day of the rebellion.
He offered to execute the late Emperor at Charlize's hands. He was afraid that Charlize would lose her life purpose.
That's why he loves Charlize. He proudly thought that he had fed the late Emperor 'a piece of Ehyrit' and made him pay the same price.
'Why do I subconsciously think that the act of feeding the statue of Emperor Ehyrit is the same?'
Now, the hatred towards the Empire Charlize possessed had faded.
If only hatred had been shown. It's not that Dylan took Alperier hostage and threatened Charlize. He must have threatened to say, 'I won't live as a tyrant anymore if you're not by my side.'
But Charlize showed no interest in Dylan's government.
Whether Dylan was a tyrant or a wise king, whether the empire was destroyed or not. In fact, his interest is gone.
Now, all Charlize's hatred was directed at the magic tower.
'Why do you hate magic towers so much?'
Why would Charlize hate the magic tower?
Dylan was invisible.
He heard the appearance of Death Knight Alperier for the past three years.
If it's a witch from the magic tower, when they face Charlize. They all said that everyone would die on the spot.
Charlize, who Dylan knew, was not that extreme. World justice is not the motive.
Moral? That's not it either.
'Why are you taking revenge?'
What revenge do you have?
The biggest and most representative crime that magic towers commit is the Kiera Project.
Kieras.
'Project Kiera.'
It was also the only topic that made Charlize obsessed.
It was also the title of the only document he burned in his office before he left Dylan.
Payne's hatred for the magic tower. Payne himself was also a victim of the Kiera project, and his sister was a victim, so he understood.
But why Charlize?
If Charlize's family wasn't involved, and she wasn't a victim, then why…
“You will die at a young age, because you cannot stand the magic of those pieces. Charlize Ronan came to you at the age of 15, and if she had been tested before, she would have been dead.”
Payne said it when he told Dylan.
But, thought Dylan.
'I will no longer approach Master's true identity with common sense.'
When Dylan was a kid.
He looked at Charlize and thought, 'she is like a magic sword.'
Not a thorny rose.
It was like a sword that burned cold and blue.
Dylan's ability to read essence.
Sometimes it is demonstrated by intuition before logic.
'Why did I, as a boy, feel the magic sword when I saw Master?'s?'
Look at it realistically. Everything questioned.
But once one empty part is installed.
Dylan seemed to understand the whole plot. No, if it is the last possibility left after removing all hypotheses. No matter how much it deviates from the laws of the world, it is correct to see it as fact.
He suddenly realized a clear fact.
'Charlize.'
Might as well.
'He has experience in the future that doesn't happen.'
It's absurd enough to make him creep. Even imagining it is impossible.
If Charlize is a victim of Project Kiera. He really suffers from it, and if he has the insight to get ahead of time with the benefit he gets from knowing the future.
Charlize's hatred of the Empire, which was powerful for the late Emperor, her revenge against the magic tower, her overly detached attitude towards the Grand Duke Ronan family, and her wisdom to recognize Dylan, who was hiding at once.
Overall, he understands.
“...What is this too much?”
"Yes?"
Ask Shadow back.
Dylan tapped lightly on the table as if playing the piano.
White smoke came out from Dylan's lips.
He started smoking after Charlize disappeared. Because the content of cigarettes makes the mind sharper and more sensitive. It was good when he was deep in thought.
'It looks like you're back from the future.'
Was he really crazy because he was obsessed with his Master?
One of them, Dylan thought.
“From your point of view, do you think I'm really crazy about Master?”
"…Yes?"
Hugo is hardened by unexpected questions.
He lowered his head without daring to look into Dylan's eyes.
Hugo was sent by Charlize directly to Dylan. Hugo was a high-ranking knight, who was also considered one of Dylan's closest servants in Shadow.
Dylan sluggishly bit the tip of his cigarette.
The smell of cigarettes, resembling the smell of demons, spread everywhere.
'Your Majesty, now he's a different person.'
Hugo realized this every time Dylan smoked.
It was no longer the cool emperor Dylan who was with Charlize.
Hugo stiffened and tensed.
“The lower one does not dare to judge the higher mind. I'm not thinking about anything, Your Majesty. Please understand my loyalty. ”
“...Do you think I'm crazy, I.”
But Dylan wasn't listening.
The tyrant's voice was low and threatening, like the growl of a savage beast.
The inside of the office was covered in silence.
Hugo and the other Shadow lowered their heads in silence.
“…”
The emperor is the absolute ruler.
No judgment should be made on the emperor's actions.
Knowing Shadow's rules of conduct, Dylan's eyes turned cold.
“...I cannot answer anything. I'm sorry, Your Majesty.”
Hugo knelt down in front of Dylan and said.
Dylan smoked and looked at Hugo casually. Hugo could not relax. Because the monstrous killing intent emanating from the emperor was real.
'I might die like this.'
The next moment he thought.
Emperors. He laughed briefly.
The killing intent spread cleanly.
It was a sudden change of emotions that his subordinates could not guess at all.
“What does Teacher do?”
“...He spent the whole day in the palace of the Empress.”
Hugo fell down, shook his back weakly, and replied.
Dylan was deep in thought with an indifferent expression on his face, then asked again.
"Charlize's at the Empress's palace?"
"…Yes.Yes."
Dylan's lips squirm.
Because he has a strange intuition.
He thought that he should see Charlize immediately.
Dylan put out his cigarette. The tyrant rose from the darkness.
***
Meanwhile, the,
Forest monster.
Charlize's sword was perfection itself.
“Aduh..!”
It was as if the god of death had descended from heaven. Glorious but sure swordplay.
The witch who met Charlize died with her eyes wide open.
The witch said, 'Why is there a woman here?' or 'Witnesses should be killed.' He would think of such a thing.
By the time Charlize's eyes met her, she was already too late.
Charlize's sword had no mercy.
The witch died without even being able to fight back.
"It's not just one person."
Shortly after, Charlize, who flew to the ground unaided, also slashed at some of her fellow magicians secretly.
In an instant, over twenty witches were lying on the floor.
'Why is the magic tower here?'
Charlize did not hesitate to change the future, only for the magic tower job. So, the result will be different.
Charlize's mind thought fast.
'The source of the evil, the piece of Ehyrit, came from that monster.'
Of course, the magic tower had grown monsters from within and carved out the pieces.
Now that Charlize had nearly destroyed the external magic tower, she must definitely obtain the monster from the outside.
That's why he came to the monster forest.
'What is this?'
Charlize watched carefully.
Because he could feel his presence not far away.
It was different from the witches. What is the smell of this sanguinary evil?
Close to natural aroma.
Someone shouted.
"We must find the grandmaster of the Empire!"
“If the grandmaster is injured by a witch, she may be injured with blood! Speed up!"
Charlize held her sword and looked in front of her.
Rumors about the grandmaster emperor seemed to be heard.
That's right, because Dylan is so openly obsessed.
Immediately, a man with a rough breath appeared in front of Charlize.
'Rapine.'
He recognized her at a glance.
Rapines are similar to ordinary people, but their characteristic is that they have sharp eyes.
Brown colored skin. A geometric pattern is drawn on the face with white paint.
"It's an impressive performance."
think Charlize.
However, Rapine first noticed the corpses that fell to the ground.
Bafflement immediately appeared on their faces.
In particular, the young man leading was shocked.
As if being killed with a single blow, there were no external injuries.
It was a skill of a terrifyingly talented person.
'No way, is it a grandmaster?'
He heard rumors that he was the Emperor's best sword, but he did not believe it.
However, it was an unrealistic sight as far as his spine had turned cold after witnessing it with both eyes.
Charlize, who was looking, slowly opened her lips.
"What is Rapine initially ... slower than the scheduled appointment time?"
It was a lethargic voice.
Also very charming. Possibility to seduce people.
