Escape From The Tyrant

Back to the Past Bag.8

'family?'

Sure oes. I don't want to talk about my family to anyone. I really don't want to talk to him. I must look upset. He who seemed to care for me retreated as if a ferocious beast was moving away from the enemy with its claws hidden.

“Do not answer. I don't have any questions, Teacher. ”

Charlize was quite confused. He was also a little disappointed.

"really?"

“….”

Even if he asked about his family, he would have considered it a long time ago. Still, he wished he would ask her, but she was truly a ferocious beast.

He won't open himself up to me.

“Today is enough to get here. Thank you." Thank you."

Charlize laughed and stood up. He did not try to continue the conversation, nor did he ask any more questions. His behavior made him anxious. But he didn't stop it anymore.

But…

'You won't let this go ...'

Dylan's thoughts, represented as bowls, began to be filled with water droplets called curiosity. Charlize expected that the bowl would be filled with water and would soon overflow. If he bites his bait, he won't let go. Fishing is about endurance.

Charlize was left feeling confused all night.

'Family.'

He keeps thinking about it. He had no interest in the King who gave birth to him. He only cared about the 7th concubine who gave birth to him. Before he returned to the past, the 7th concubine was the center of the rivalry towards the throne. The second and 4th concubines hated the 7th concubine the most and bullied her.

All the princes born by the two concubines had died. The death of a prince is considered ordinary, but six princes die 'first'. The former crown prince has insulted the Shan kingdom where the 7th concubine came from. And the prince was killed in a 'most cruel' manner'.

The fifth prince was the only one who attended the funeral of the 7th concubine. After intense competition, the 5th prince was the one who 'took the throne.' At first, they thought it was a coincidence, but it wasn't.

Every situation could be explained by the presence of the 7th concubine.

'Dylan is the secret ruler of this kingdom. This fact was discovered after his death. When he was alive, no one knew his true self. When Dylan died, the entire kingdom was in chaos because he was the true ruler who controlled the emperor.'

That's not all.

'At that time, anonymous painters, music, and famous music composers were everything. The upper class is in a mess with this incident.

Also, he is not only talented in art. He is talented in economics, law, medical science, agriculture, architecture, and management. He is academically capable.

His notes were later discovered and published, and became sensational. All the notes he wrote became legendary.'

'The 7th concubine who gave birth to Prince Dylan must have had a great influence in her characteristics.'

'Just exactly. We have found the will of the 7th concubine later in her retirement that Dylan declared for a while. The higher-ups were embarrassed because they were unaware of his talent. And they began to notice the forgotten 7th concubine.'

'Don't get sick, don't stand out, and stick it out in any way.'

The will of the 7th concubine soon became popular. It was only one sentence, but it gave his life purpose. He kept on remembering her words until he died.

Charlize thought the only reason she never wanted to become emperor was because of the 7th concubine.

What if the will of the 7th concubine was 'Be emperor by all means.'?

The whole kingdom will be destroyed.

Charlize opened the window, and a cold wind blew inside. The sky is full of stars. Charlize believed in this opportunity. There was a reason to become his teacher after he returned to the past.

That should be now.

'This autumn, the 7th concubine will die.'

Cause of death by poisoning. The 7th concubine who gave birth to her suffered tremendous pain until she died.

If I want to earn his trust, I should use this time as much as I can.

Charlize definitely needed to attend the funeral of the 7th concubine and stay until it was all over. He suddenly becomes distracted by the soft melody of the piano.

Charlize stopped thinking.

'Pianos?'

He could hear the piano at close range. Charlize.

'It……'

The sound came from his bedroom. The calm tone of the song soon darkened. He could imagine his face without looking. He has lived a long time as a sword.

Charlize was the closest friend of the emperors. He had knowledge of the hobbies and subtleties of the royal family. He could easily find the names of the compositions. It was the 'Hello Secret' composed by Daruken. He muttered the lyrics he learned from music.

"You're an amateur, my peri."

Charlize began to sing following the melody. The piano suddenly stopped.

Maybe he didn't realize I was listening.

He must have hesitated. It was silent for a long time. Is that too rushed? Dylan was like a watchful cat. Silence soon filled the room.

“….”

But soon the keyboard continued to be played. He quietly listened to the song.

"As soon as I see you, I'm your prisoner."

This time, he did not stop. Charlize slowly filled the melody with her voice as if she was adding her own chords.

"Where are you going, periku?"

As if Dylan was responding, he played another line. Charlize sings again. He looked over and looked towards the bedroom where he was. The walls were still loud and secluded, but through the melody flowing through the air, they communicated.

'Hello secret' is very famous. Composers show their excitement, surprise, curiosity, and excitement when they first see the muse. Interesting but mysterious and careful at the same time.

The muse was later arrested for being a spy. It was a song that could attract someone who was alluring. The title of the song is 'there are thorns in roses.'

“Do not ignore me.”

Stars fill the night sky. And the soft aroma coming from the diffuser is sweet. A soft and charming song. An intense and devastating music game.

The melody is too beautiful. It was quite tingling to communicate with the piano. The atmosphere drives him crazy.

"Please look at me."

The song ended. The drama stopped. The silence that filled the room was not real.

“….”

Suddenly, he closed the keyboard.

Charlize smiled.

He looked around, pretending to know nothing. He was humming. He continued to hum the melody of 'Hello secret.' The window was not closed for a long time.

If Charlize were to choose one person in her family who cared about her, it would definitely be the second young master. However, that attention was almost the same as the attention on the ants on the road.

———

“No response back.”

"….What's?"

Second young master Dante is upset. The servant, feeling regretful, avoided his eyes. Dante sent a letter to Charlize yesterday. It's not something special. He just asked how he was doing.

She's still his little sister. He could not be like the master or the first young father who completely ignored him. Sending a letter requires great courage.

Dante surprised.

“No response.”

He was quite happy when he wrote the letter. He hoped he would be pleased with his attention. He was even worried that he might think of the letter as a love letter and upset him.

But he didn't answer. He did not even think about this situation.

"There will be a response tomorrow morning."

Dante refused to accept this fact. This must be a mistake. The postman must be lazy. After all, Charlize must have responded if she saw the letter.

"But young master ......"

The maid shut her mouth as she looked at Dante's sharp eyes. He could not say that Charlize did not read the letter. Dante kept thinking he would answer. Those thoughts made her feel better.

There will be a swordsmanship competition soon.

'I have to concentrate on training and distract myself from my thoughts about him.'

Dante erased the thought of him in his mind and turned around. He's heading to the training ground. He didn't know he had changed.

Also, the competition would not be as he expected.

———

"I'll see you this afternoon."

"You don't have class so you can do whatever you want."

They're having breakfast. Ten days is enough to get to know each other. Charlize replied to him.

'Can I approach him a little?'

Dylan was very sensitive when talking about his mother, the 7th concubine. How far can he go with this?

They are not connected as if they were water and oil. Totally white or black. There is no gray between them.

Charlize didn't want to overstimulate him. He pretended to be calm and finished his salad.

"She's planning on visiting the 7th concubine."

Dylan is brighter today. Of course, he was clean and flawless every day, but today he was much more brilliant. He has the most luxurious and classy uniform. His black hair looked like it was from the East.

He's elegant and luxurious. His handsome face was as if carved, paired with calm sea eyes. Although his eyes hid his thoughts, this brat seemed brighter than usual.

His mouth grinned a little.

“Can I accompany you on the way to visit your mother?”

As if there was nothing, he broke the silence. He's getting stiff. The boy looked at Charlize as if he was trying to figure out what she was doing. It was the sharpest look he gave her.

"I'll take that as a no answer."

But then, his response was beyond belief.

"…..Okay." Okay."

"What?"

Charlize is confused. But he regained consciousness soon.

“Oh...Thank you, Your Excellency.”

I never had to thank him. I was quite moved. She was like a cat, who hesitated whether she should run away or not and finally she managed to pet her.

He spoke with doubt.

“You were the first to notice...my mother.”.

"I did it to seduce you."

“But if you see my mother, you will love her. She is very nice and sweet.”

When she praised the 7th concubine, she ended up acting like a child her age. Charlize thought she was quite familiar with him, but with her red ears, it was quite strange and shocking.

'Is he this handsome?'

Dylan is now dangerous to my heart. He shines like the sun. She was too shiny that I could not see her directly.

He looked at Charlize and smiled. He felt trapped for a moment.
