Escape From The Tyrant

Why did you leave me? (5)

24 Years ago.

Dylan's mother, the 7th concubine, was from the Shan Kingdom.

The 7th concubine was almost the last believer to obey Ehyrit.

The Shan Kingdom does not believe in Ehyrit. This was even more so because the God died and even the holy power of the priests who followed him was depleted.

In such a culture, the 7th concubine believed in Ehyrit ever since she became a princess.

'The last saint Shan.'

Some people call the 7th concubine that way.

Because he has a kind and kind personality and cannot hate others. Even if he suffered something unfair, he had to blame himself.

After losing the war against the Blade Empire, she became Emperor Dietrich's 7th concubine.

What she experienced after becoming the imperial emperor's concubine was a disaster.

'If there's a God, you can't do this to me.'

So the 7th concubine finally erased all her past and left the Gods.

Three months after she arrived in the empire, she was pregnant with Dylan.

There was a culture called conception dreams in the Shan kingdom, and the 7th concubine also dreamed of Dylan's conception dreams.

'Ehyrit Temple?'

The temple was stretched out in a dream.

It was an Ehyrit temple with white marble floors and pale pink pillars.

The 7th concubine, who had violated her devotion, walked past the temple with a strange face.

It was a vast and endless temple.

After a long walk, he could already see the fountain in the center of the temple. Amidst the rainbow splash of water, the statue of Ehyrit glittered in the sunlight.

“…?”

A white lion approached the 7th concubine, who looked at the fountain as if in a trance.

The white lion, also called the symbol of Ehyrit, has a black eagle in its mouth.

When the 7th concubine tilted her head, the white lion placed the eagle under her feet.

The eagle is dead.

"…Who is this?"

The white lion was huge.

But he's not afraid. For some reason, he had a feeling that it would not harm.

The white lion rubbed his face on the cheek of the 7th concubine, as if acting funny.

The amused sensation was gentle and he felt strange.

The lion stared at the 7th concubine with a loyal and blind gaze.

"What's a gift?"

The 7th concubine hesitated and reached out to the dead eagle on the floor.

However, when the hand of the 7th concubine reached it, the eagle came back to life and flapped its wings. What happened next was a bit surprising.

The eagle pecked the heart of the white lion to death.

The 7th concubine, awakening from her dream, placed her hand on her stomach in the darkness.

The boy grew to the point where the fetus could be felt, and his stomach was full like Namsan Mountain.

The 7th concubine was terrified.

He couldn't understand what the dream was, but he thought he knew it. However, he was dazed because there was no sense of reality.

"I don't hate you even if you're an unwanted child."

The 7th concubine whispered, staring at her stomach.

"But, son, who are you?"

Surprisingly, it felt like the child in his stomach understood what he was saying.

Because the boy kicked his stomach in response.

The 7th concubine had a strong sense of responsibility and basically had a high level of trust in people.

The intensity level of liking people was also stronger than that of ordinary people. So even if it was a child created by Dietrich, the 7th concubine liked it.

Three months later, the 7th concubine gave birth and she named him 'Dylan'.

Dylan is growing up well. And the 7th concubine immediately realized.

'This child is no ordinary person.'

He's amazing.

Whatever it was, as soon as he saw it, he remembered everything and did everything well.

The 7th concubine finally realized the meaning of the conception dream.

Even if it wasn't perfect, he vaguely knew it. That Dylan has something from Ehyrit.

The white lion is the symbol of the animal Ehyrit.

And the eagle, the beast that symbolizes the enemy of Ehyrit.

In ancient myths, Ehyrit is said to have enemies and die when others find out. Since this is a vaguely expressed myth, its interpretation differs from one scientist to another.

'If Dylan revealed his presence and stood out at something, he would die.'

So, the 7th concubine hid Dylan's presence until the end.

Dylan won't be threatened by people. It was because he thought that if he saw something beyond the human level, it would be extremely dangerous.

***

And now.

"My mom told me about the dream of a fetus forming and said that I can't live for real."

Maybe because he's a real part of Ehyrit.

Dylan added and said.

“...How old were you when you heard that?”

“When I was 5 years old.”

He's been amazing since he was a kid. After all, even if the 7th concubine did not tell him, he had a rough guess. The 7th concubine, who had been watching Dylan, told the whole story.

That's when he found out. Why is he different from the others. What's he.

“But that's not what matters.”

Dylan stop.

Charlize remained silent. Because he was still in the remaining atmosphere of conversation.

After eating, Charlize parted with Dylan for a while and took a quick shower. Now they talk and walk together outside.

Charlize's feeling was very dry now. Although she might turn a little sentimental in front of the story of the 7th concubine she hadn't heard in a long time.

'You can't be affected by your emotions.'

If you allow yourself to get emotional. If you lose your patience.

He felt like he could not suppress the killing intent against the true part, the essence of the evil god.

Charlize was silent for a moment. It was because of the 7th concubine who thought that if Dylan saw a creature that had transcended the human realm, he might die.

'That is why he wrote such a will before he returned to the past.'

The contents of the will changed when Charlize took over as Master Dylan.

"But the 7th concubine was right in the end."

The biggest threat to Dylan is Charlize Ronan. Because the evil god Kiera is right.

"Is that really painful?"

“…”

Charlize raised her head.

"Have you suffered so much?" ask Dylan.

Even if the white drawing paper was dyed black and turned black, Dylan's essence reached Charlize.

“How did it feel when you became Kiera?”

“How do you know about the future?”

“I know because Kahu.”

He knows it.

Did he have to kill Kahu to silence him?

'No, the debt should have been repaid.'

“Do you owe the young duke or something? For example, after Kiera was born, only Kahu went looking for Master.”kanya Dylan, as if reading Charlize's mind.

"Frightly so."

He realized that Charlize was Kiera, so it wouldn't be difficult to guess a few things about the past.

“So, what original part of Ehyrit was destined to be killed by Kiera? So, that's why you left? ”

Charlize nodded her head as an affirmation calmly.

And he's ready.

He foresaw a situation where Dylan was angry with a sense of betrayal or said he should have taken her.

He left his wife because he loved her. Is there a more cruel reason than that?

However, Dylan slowly held hands with Charlize, who turned his head.

Charlize looked at Dylan.

“…”

And he can't speak.

Because the emperor laughed at those transparent tears.

"I'm happy."

Charlize was surprised by the unexpected reaction.

'Why are you crying?'

"thank you. I'm just glad you've protected me.”

Dylan said lovingly and sweetly, putting strength in his hands as if he was tying Charlize up. He said the words he most wanted to hear, so he would never be able to resist.

Charlize finally regained consciousness.

"He's serious."

Pain becomes a sword.

He thought no one would ever understand. He didn't think anyone would understand. The secret that he was always hugged alone.

Even if he wanted to tell them, he didn't even know where to start and how to explain it.

Because it's obvious that anyone would think it doesn't make sense to hear it.

But Dylan always looked like that. Something he never expected. Be sympathetic. Although Charlize left Dylan. That's so embarrassing.

"Ah."

For a moment, he wondered if Dylan had felt like this at the funeral in the past.

Like Dylan who lost his 7th concubine. Charlize also lost the Grand Duchess when she was very young. She could sympathize with the pain of losing her mother, and she comforted her by being by her side.

At that time, Dylan.

As she looked at Charlize who was guarding the funeral home, did she feel pain in her chest like this?

A warm breeze blew. An unusually bitter winter has ended and a new season is coming. Early spring.

"Now I know for sure."

thought Dylan, staring at the quiet Charlize.

'The teacher is strong against the strong and the weak against the weak.'

Until now, Charlize would not have expected that Dylan was weak.

Pretending clumsy and weak doesn't work.

So Dylan smiled full of risk to everything. With sad eyes.

“I'm glad you exist.”

Her cheeks were wet with white sparkling tears.

Dylan is a genius. It is easy to smile beautifully while shedding tears.

He also knew if he picked up the story of the 7th concubine, he could soften Charlize's heart.

Any memories of the past could be used as long as he could get Charlize's gentle attention.

Dylan turned to Charlize.

And he waited for a while, making eye contact in the air.

“…”

Charlize was half shaken and half confused.

Dylan drew Charlize's attention and lowered his head even deeper.

Even though the two lips were close, they had not touched. If Charlize dodged, she could avoid any distance and time.

However, after a few seconds, their lips met and they kissed, and Charlize could not avoid it.

'That's hot.'

To the point of embarrassment.

Charlize hesitated for a long time because she was unable to find the right emotional expression.

The kiss was very soft. That's very stimulating.

Why are you doing this?

Isn't this a regular kiss?

"Superficial, it tastes good."

It was good when Charlize took the lead first, but this feeling was a little better.

'No matter how genius he is, he doesn't have to be good at kissing.'

That's someone else's lips. It was someone else's hand. Why so far?

Their lips parted for a moment. Dylan exhaled slowly, suffocatingly, with his foreheads clinging to each other. His breath tickled the tip of his nose.

Charlize swallowed unconsciously.

'This feeling.'

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to call it a deep emotion?

'The emotion is deep.'

How many times has he accepted it in his life?

However, he did not know how to describe the sensation of being so heavy on his chest other than being moved. It's just thrilling. The right word to describe this feeling.

"Charlize."

"Yes." Yeah."

“Can I kiss you deeper?”

"…Yes.Yes."

Dylan asked permission and kissed Charlize again.

This time deeper and more explicit.

It was like a kiss reminiscent of the first night.

Dylan hugged Charlize at his waist.

Charlize fell onto the gentle Dylan, but Dylan's gaze was thorough where Charlize couldn't see her.

"Smile."

“Focus on me.”

Charlize was in Dylan's arms.

Dylan lifted Charlize's chin and began to kiss her even louder.

The tyrant's hand was cowering.
