Chapter 213: Chapter 213. The Result Of Choice, Part IV
Translator: KhanEditor Group: Liber Reverie
After Lohan had left, she lay down on the bed to sleep for tomorrow, as he had said. But because of the thought of the Crown Prince who came up into her mind again, she had to meet the dawn without sleeping. It was the day when she had prepared, eagerly looking forward to, and how could she sleep comfortably?
‘And now I can let the Crown Prince kneel before my feet, who humiliated me…! And even that vulgar woman!’
Isis, splendidly dressed fit for the new power, went out of the mansion, and the soldiers were gathered in no time and waiting in st.u.r.dy armor and sharp swords. They seemed to be confident that they would cut the enemies and capture the Imperial Castle if she gave instructions.
“You came out quickly, Lady Isis.”
Lohan, who was giving instructions among the soldiers, greeted Isis with a pleasant face, and Mielle, who had regained her pure face, stood beside him as she no longer needed to disguise herself. Mielle, who had sold the information of the Crown Prince, and of the empire, who had bought Lohan’s favor and saved her life, greeted Isis.
“h.e.l.lo, Miss Isis.”
She was so confident that it was hard to see the same person as the girl who had been in prison and cried until recently. Although she had failed and self-defeated several times, Mielle had suffered as much as herself, and Isis understood it and greeted the two with a generous greeting.
“Good morning, Mr. Lohan, and Miss Mielle.”
“Yes, it’s a good dawn to kill a high-hearted rat.”
“Would you like to leave now?”
“No, we’d better leave after dawn, because the soldiers who had stayed in the mansion of the Duke are taking care of you, and you don’t have to go fast.”
The soldiers who had stayed in the duke’s quarters were at least a hundred. Isis thanked for his consideration, with a noticeable relief that they had all agreed to protect her.
“I’m so relieved that so many soldiers will protect me, and if I leave after dawn, the battle will be over.”
“Yes, I suppose.”
Without waiting long, the darkness of dawn quickly disappeared, and the dawn began to open. In the meantime, Isis, who had a simple breakfast, went to the Imperial Castle, a.s.suming that a large number of soldiers might have occupied, riding the wagon with Mielle, who had a cheerful face with a flush of excitement and Lohan with a pleasant look.
‘… Why is it so quiet?’
But somehow the street was so quiet as if nothing had happened. No matter how the destination was the Imperial Castle, many soldiers had left to raid it before dawn, so those who had confirmed it might make a fuss, but why?
“… is it already over? It’s a bit languid.”
When Isis asked anxiously, Lohan laughed and agreed enthusiastically, saying that it seemed like that.
“I told them to finish quietly and quickly, and they might have done it.”
“I see… Even so, I think it’s too fast, though.”
“It’s because the enemies are puny, and we don’t have to send so many soldiers for it, and it’s all because of the information Lady Mielle gave me.”
“… is it real?” asked Mielle, not knowing what to do with the sudden compliment of Lohan, and Lohan, who laughed, touched her hair smoothly and affirmed it.
“Of course, you have been more helpful than any informers”
“I’m so glad I helped you…”
Mielle’s eyes were s.h.i.+ning beautifully as they headed toward Lohan. It was like the eyes she had sent to Oscar. And Isis was able to realize that for this short time Mielle had been firmly in love with Lohan.
‘I thought you’d saved your life by leaking information, but how dare you dash to him without knowing who you are?’
Mielle had behaved as if she would commit herself to Oscar for her whole life, but she had betrayed him in such a short time. It was terrible to think that she would let Mielle marry Oscar without knowing she was such a woman.
It was when Isis, who was so upset, decided that it would not be too bad to get rid of the family of Count Roscent after the wedding ceremony with Lohan. The carriage stopped suddenly in the square, still a little away from its destination.
“We must have arrived.”
“What? What do you mean? There’s still a long way to the Imperial Castle.” Isis asked, and Mielle also opened the carriage window, with her eyes wide, and checked the outside.
“I wonder, too… Huh? Why are there so many people? … Huh? Uh!”
Then, she seemed to find something strange and questioned it but could not speak. She looked so surprised that Isis was about to confirm what Mielle had seen, but suddenly her vision changed.
“Yaaah!” And the great pain came late.
“Now, we’re here, Lady Isis, and they’re all waiting for you,” said Lohan, who had caught Isis’s hair, and kicked the wagon door with his foot.
As she watched it near, Mielle began to tremble with a pale look at the incredible sight and the sudden action of Lohan.
“Mielle, they’ll be here soon, don’t worry and wait quietly.”
So kindly, Lohan, who was about to go straight out, informed her that Mielle would have her turn, and dragged Isis out the open door. What was waiting there was none other than the man she hated so much.
‘Why, why are you here!?’ Isis wanted to scream, but she couldn’t because Lohan hit her on the ground.
“Yaaah!”
The spectators gathered around Isis, which had been called the n.o.blest in the empire, were surprised to see it and swallowed. They stopped their walk to see why the Crown Prince, other n.o.bles, and imperial knights were there and what was going on in the square, but they did not know that this shocking thing would happen.
A few hours after dawn, a considerable number of bystanders saw it, and Lohan, who had not even looked at Isis on the cold ground, said, shaking his hand.
“I have brought a sinner as you ordered, Your Highness Asterope.”
He looked glad now as if he had managed to get rid of the trouble. Aria ran to Isis and checked her.
“Are you all right? How can he be so violent…?”
Her tone was worried, but her expression was not. She was now delighted to be able to drop Isis into a pitfall. Of course, it was a face that was not visible to anyone else but only to Isis, who was very close.
“How dare you of a shallow origin…”
Isis pushed Aria who came to her, but the knights who were waiting nearby immediately grabbed her arm, pressed her neck, and tied her. Even though she had sinned, Aria was worried, but Isis pushed Aria who looked after her, and their hands were full of anger.
Aria’s face, surrounded by knights, was in a state of anxiety and fear, and when Isis struggled to escape, Lohan said, in a puzzled way, “You’re too much, Lady Isis. You don’t think what you have attempted. Look, as Lady Aria showed kindness to you, you showed only your evil temper.”
It was evident in that tone how patient he had been in the meanwhile, and he had tried his best to curry favor with her.
“You don’t know who is so vulgar, but you mention about the shallowness. I have expected a little because you have had the support of the n.o.bles of the empire, but I am so disappointed, Princess Isis.”
Then he suddenly took Aria’s side. It was true that she was of humble origin, and Aria stared at him, blinking as if she hadn’t thought he would take her side.
“That’s frustrating. The Countess hasn’t spoken yet, has she? Lady Aria should know the truth and come to Croa. It is not the Empire here, but the Croa, where Lady Aria is to stay.”
“… Mother?”
Aria, who did not understand what he was talking about, asked Lohan, and he did not answer but had a meaningful smile. Aria rolled her eyes, as she didn’t know what it meant, and Asher began to mediate as if to stop.
“If you want to say the useless words, go back.”
“Are you saying that I am useless now? I still have work to do?” said Lohan, and pointed to the carriage, where Mielle, who had been hiding, was trembling and was dragged out by the hands of the knights. Fortunately, they didn’t grab her hair or didn’t throw her on the ground like Isis, but she was scared and frightened enough even if they didn’t do that.
