Princess Reincarnation
"News"
Sir Leonhard was speechless with a troubled expression on his face after my simple explanation.
I have no way of guessing whether he will believe me or not. Even before we get there, it's a mystery if I've had enough to convey everything with my limited words.
I wanted to keep my lies to a minimum, so I just said I've seen it in "dreams".
"Your Majesty," Sir Leonhard finally spoke after the silence had passed.
"Yes?"
“To summarize, you have knowledge of the possible future, but not all of it. This knowledge is limited to the people around you, and only within a certain period of time, so there are still many parts that are not clear, and many things that you do not know. You cannot predict when many of these events will occur. But your current actions suggest there is a possibility the future could be rewritten. Did I get everything right? "
"Yes, yeah…"
Must be a hard story to tell.
Despite the story I gave, I was surprised. If my friend suddenly told me such a thing while I was still living in Japan, it would be very difficult for me to accept it immediately.
However, from Sir Leonhard's reaction, nothing showed that he was lost. On the other hand, I was confused.
He folded his hands and placed his chin in his hand. He looked down, like he was deep in thought, and said I looked in a faint tone.
"You know the future. To divert misfortunes from those around you, you are forced to move on your own. You can only rely on yourself and Klaus, and it can be difficult to decide how much you can explain with permission. In addition, the difference between the future you know and … "
"Tu-wait a minute!"
Uninterested in listening to him, I cut him off. The eyes that he narrowed were thinking roundly as he looked at me.
"…what is it?"
"My story, do you believe it?"
I realized the ridiculous story I was telling her.
Besides, I'm a 10-year-old. Even if she arranged the wild story of a little girl in order, I think it couldn't help.
“Yes. ”
However, Sir Leonhard stated that without the slightest hesitation.
"…Why?"
"yeah. There are several reasons, but the incident that occurred half a year ago is the best example. The plan to kidnap the witches Lutz Eilenburg and Theo Eilenberg was a secret matter, limited to a handful of knights within the order. The possibility of someone leaking that information is not out of the question, but your knowledge in that situation is unexpected. Because you're acting faster than we can. ”
"Huh?"
"You asked Klaus to investigate Hilde Kramer, didn't you? Around that time, we suspected Niklas was a spy, but had not realized the whereabouts of Hilde Kramer. ”
I saw .
I suspected Hilde Kramer, and barely managed to connect him with Niklas. However, for Sir Leonhard and the others, Niklas had brought them to Hilde. Quite the contrary.
Even if they were to obtain information, and could follow up on that clue, it would be impossible to track it down.
"Furthermore, I can't trust you as someone who would lie. ”
"!"
Hearing his words, my conscience was pierced with a knife.
Not without reason, but, the lie was told. No matter what the reason is, I cannot change the fact that I cheated him.
My heart hurts so much. It makes me want to apologize immediately.
This is how I'll start now. There's no way back.
"Thank you very much . ”
For that reason, I smiled as I thanked him. I have to say it.
“……”
Sir Leonhard was silent, smiling bitterly. His expression was conflicted, but he still looked at me warmly.
Maybe he noticed. That there's no way I'm explaining everything, and everything's not true.
Even then, Sir Leonhard looked like he would urge me to answer despite my fake smile.
"Your Majesty . ”
"Yes?"
"If it doesn't deter you, then I would like to ask, will there be any events that should be avoided in any way in the near future?"
The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, "The Rise of The Dark Lord".
If I want to live in peace, that is the flag I have to destroy. But it's still not the right time to destroy that flag.
“There is still time before that happens, but right now there is something I have to do without delay. ”
"All right then . Is there anything I can do to help you? "
"!……Yes!"
It's exactly as I expected it to be.
I controlled my expression, and nodded strongly.
"But this conversation .. has taken longer than I expected. ”
"That's right . Klaus should be back anytime now. The man is not someone who can 'wait' if you tell him. ”
Especially when it hits you, Sir Leonhard said, laughing.
“I want to arrange a time to see you again shortly. May I speak with you when the time comes? ”
"Of course . ”
I let out a sigh of relief. As if I had to constantly hold myself back until now, I relaxed the hand I was unconsciously holding. Seconds next.
——— BANG BANG.
"!"
As the time had set, a knock came from the door.
It was a capable yet troublesome man, “can't 'wait' if you tell him to wait”, Klaus. My knight guard had returned roughly about five seconds after I promised to meet Sir Leonhard next time.
The timing is too good to be true. When I froze, Sir Leonhard smiled wryly.
"You're safe, he didn't hear," he said in a soft voice as he walked past me to the door.
On the other side of the open door, sweat drenched the man's panting forehead. There seemed to be no reason to worry, so I once again let out a deep sigh.
