The garden looked quite different now that itâs the middle of winter . Maybe itâs because the maids and servants werenât outside? I liked being outside, but everyone wanted to stay inside since itâs cold . If I stayed close to the winter tree, I would feel rather hot .
âYou said you would be back in three months⌠liar . â
Well, it wasnât a war that would end in three months, to begin with . I heard Caitel was on a rampage like a mad dog there . Due to that, itâs pretty much guaranteed that he would conquer Praezia this year or early next year .
Thatâs why Ferdel got so much work than ever; all the nobles were afraid of Caitel with his action . They said that uniting the whole continent wasnât particularly impossible . The problem was that Caitel didnât have any ambition as honorable as that . I couldnât seem to find any of Genghis Khanâs ambitions in his eyes . This was not all about uniting the continent .
âIâll be ruined before that . Because excessive land picking leads to division . â
It had historically been seen in Rome or Mongolia . It sparkled only in its heyday, and itâs a different story to make the land entirely of itself . If Caiatel died anyway, Pretzia would be independent . Of course, itâs only possible when more independent fighters bled before that day .
âWell, that would fail . Too much conquering makes too much trouble . â
Rome or Mongolia were great examples . Itâs good for only a short time, and itâs harder to unite its citizens as one . Well, after Caitelâs death, Praezia would be its own country again . Of course, before independence, many people would bleed to attaint that freedom .
âI canât tell if itâs lucky to be born here or not . â
I realized how great things were in my previous life before I was born here . Democracy, the right to vote for the nationâs president . Small but important things .
Suddenly, that word came to mind . The freedom we enjoyed today bathed in the blood our ancestors shed .
âItâs not my country anymore, but I still thinks of Korea as âmy countryâ . Tsk tsk, Iâm still a long way off . â
Still, if I thought of my mother, I thought of Serira more than my previous lifeâs mother . Itâs a natural step, but itâs a little bittersweet . To forget the past and let it go . Of course, I had to make up my mind, but I didnât want to leave it out yet .
âProbably because itâs where I came from . â
My thoughts, my beliefs, my values, my country that molded me into who I was . Because itâs the foundation of my feet, the root of all my thoughts; it was natural in a way that I could not let go of such a place . I thought I would probably carry it for the rest of my life . Now that the times were different, the world was different, and the values were different, how could I integrate the thing I knew with the new things I learned?
âI think having a memory of my past life is more damaging than good . â
What kind of two-year-old child considered these things? Well, of course, even though I was going to be three soon, itâs still the same thing .
