The Eternal Debauchery's

grandpa's proposal

I left the auction house after I spoke to my aunt.

I wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to spend some quality time with my aunt or Susan, but both of them were busy with work, plus Aunt Sera was also there, so, in the end, it was, I just teased them a little bit before leaving.

On the train on the way back to my mansion, I thought about my plans from here onward.

To be honest, I had almost a hundred percent chance of success in my plan.

In fact, if only killing the emperor and empress and making Dina the new ruler, I could do it easily. My revenge is a little different.

I don't just want to kill them. That would be too good.

However, there are some variables that are out of my control.

Ysnay, Emilia, and the unknown Immortal.

I'm not too worried about Emilia. He probably won't act before he frees himself from my seal completely. In other words, I still have a little time.

The problem is the other two.

I believe the unknown Immortal is currently affecting this world in some way, pushing him towards his desired destination. And since our goals clashed, we ended up having to fight.

As for Ysnay.. To be honest, I don't know what he was thinking.

Actually, he's my biggest headache. I can't kill him, but I can't leave him alone either. So, I had to be constantly wary of her just in case she tried something funny.

… And speaking of the devil.

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside me.

"It's you, Willian."

“... Ysnay,” I sighed tiredly.

"Hey, what's with that reaction?" Ysnay looked at me annoyed. “At the end of the day, I'm still pretty, okay? Do you really have to treat me like this? ”

“Trust me, if I treat you as a normal beauty, I will die without realizing it myself. It happened once anyway." I said indifferently.

Ysnay stiffened, and her expression turned complicated.

"… It was a mistake. I don't know what I want from him.”

“Is that?” I nodded and did not investigate the topic.I do not want to have this conversation right now.

This is a conversation we have had before.

Aware of my intentions, Ysnay sighed again.

“Should you be like this, Willian? It has been so long ... Is it really impossible for you to forgive me?

“You are also an Immortal, Ysnay.you know that an Immortal cannot trust someone who betrays them once.”

Ysnay smiled bitterly.

“... Do you know, Willian? Sometimes I wonder if becoming an Immortal is a curse? … Perhaps, it would be better if our fate became the fate of normal humans."

I chuckled and shook my head with a mocking expression.

“If we are ordinary humans, our end will be more tragic.”

“... Maybe you are right.” Ysnay's expression was bitter. "In the end, I'm a fortune teller."

I didn't say anything. Instead, I closed my eyes, deciding to ignore Ysnay.

Ysnay opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she fell silent.

Instead, she leaned her head against my shoulder, as if she wanted to seek my warmth.

I didn't reject it.

However, it was not because I still felt any affection for her.

Rather, it is my mercy towards the Immortal who has lived empty lives for tens of thousands of years.

But suddenly, I frowned.

Someone stopped the train.

Then, the man knocked on the door of the carriage.

"Your Majesty Claus, can I come in?"

I could feel Ysnay's face beside me darken. He was angry because our time together was interrupted by someone.

Despite his anger, he did not attack. Probably considering me.

I furrowed my eyebrows. With a thought, I broadened my senses outside of the carriage to see who he was.

But when I saw her, I couldn't help but be confused for a moment.

What the hell is he doing here?

"… Go inside." I said after considering it for a while. I think the best way to know his intentions is to meet him.

A second later, a kind-looking old man opened the carriage door and went inside.

The old man sat across from me. He then looked at Ysnay curiously before furrowing his brows.

In the next instant, his eyebrows became smooth and he looked at me.

“... You have grown tremendously since the last time I saw you, Claus.”

“... Should I call you Your Majesty?”

The old man was surprised. “You recognize me? How strange, you were still a baby the last time you saw me.”

"Your image hangs on the wall along with the other imperial emperors."

The old man was dumbfounded.

"… You are right. I should have thought of that. But you were very perceptive, son. I have changed a lot since the day the picture was taken.”

"It's not enough to go unrecognized, Your Majesty."

The old man smiled wryly.

“... Can you stop calling me that? I'd rather you call me Grandpa. ”

I'm sorry, but I don't think I want grandpa all of a sudden.

Seeing that I disagree, the old man sighed.

“I don't think I should have expected it, yeah. I don't take care of you and your brother like a grandfather should.”

Not that I care about that.

Yes, this old man in front of me is the former emperor of the empire, Craig Quintin. My grandfather.

And right now, he was the leader of the Hidden History.

If I'm not mistaken, he should be 75th today, and from what I see, he's already in the 15th layer.

A true old monster. One of the strongest people in this world under the gods.

Someone like that, I'm sure she's not here just to meet a granddaughter that she's never been looking for before.

So, I decided to get straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, may I ask what is your purpose here?"

The Emperor looked at me with a troubled smile before sighing again.

“Yes, I think we should start talking about business. Claus, are you interested in the throne? ”
