It happened the year when I was three years old, nearing four .
When the conquest of Pretzia ended, Caitel did not start other wars . When the warmongering emperor ceased his campaign, all neighboring countries which were shivering in fear happily shouted, âhooray!â
Well, thatâs what I would have done, too . Maybe Iâd add something to it and made it an annual holiday . Saying, âthis is a day to celebrate . â
Anyway, unlike neighboring countries that were formerly a tragic sight to behold, the responses of our countryâs nobility had been consistent . Six months was the limit, and once the king felt even a twinge of boredom, then he would seek the stench of death again . Tsk tsk tsk, did they really believe that?
⌠itâs not a completely false statement, but you knowâŚ
That was already four years ago . Unlike the beginning of our peaceful years, all kinds of speculations were on everyoneâs lips that the emperor might have finally come to his senses . They were talking about how, perhaps, having a daughter had finally awakened the essence of humanity within him . Itâs all bullshit, of course .
Oh, who said my dad was human? My father was a madman!
âAssisi, do you know the reason why he quit the war?â
âIsnât it because the princess was born?â
⌠No, I couldnât believe that at all .
How could that lunatic quit his thirst for war just because of me? It was absolutely ridiculous .
As I drew my face quiveringly, Assisi questioned my reaction . I didnât think that it was right, but I couldnât say this to the naive Assisi . Somehow from the moment I first met Assisi, he had viewed me as his very beloved and innocent daughter . How did he come to such an enormous illusion?
⌠That I had done to liveâŚ
Assisi should get that on his head!
Well, Assisi didnât know that my father choked my neck the moment he saw me . This was a very thoughtful way of saying that he was trying to kill me . I remembered that my childhood was like walking on thin ice . If it wasnât me, then anyone would have died . Go, me!
âAre your legs not hurting?â
I looked back at Assisi .
âAssisi, are you aware that youâre asking that every five seconds?â
Assisi became silent . He looked embarrassed . I couldnât help but laugh at the way he looked away from my eyes .
It was effortless to know Assisi well . How could I be so clear-cut? Unlike anyone else, I could see through him so clearly, and ironically, that was the problem . What should I do with such a pure man?
