11 - Never Let Go of a Black-Haired Dad

Episode 11. If a person puts in effort, they can become a fool (4)

==========

"Here again today, marshmallow.""Yes." I have been waiting, Your Highness."In just half a month, it will already be Christmas."Christmas.

It is the day when the gods or spirits worshipped in each household give gifts to the virtuous descendants. Of course, the standard of this 'goodness' varies depending on the nature of the deity and spirit being worshipped, so one must live diligently according to the guidelines of the household.

The Nakson family, a leading casino chain on the continent, is said to be diligently gathering money every year because they are always considered good if they make a lot of money.

God has prepared luxurious goods for the good lineage that earns money well. I heard that when giving gifts, the effects are so extravagant that every year fireworks explode and the name of the recipient sparkles in the sky, creating a spectacular scene.

Of course, the system of giving that gift is a 10-draw lottery, so the chances of getting something really good are extremely low, but it is said that the people in that household wait for Christmas every year.

Sometimes the joy of getting an amazing gift is tremendous... Honestly, I don't know well.

Isn't it better to just receive a regular gift for sure?

"Marshmallow, have you been good for the past year?" Do you think you will receive a gift?"I apologize, but I am not the successor of Krishna, so I cannot accept gifts.""Oh dear.""That house had many siblings, indeed."

The succession of power is a direct transmission, so only the legitimate heir and successor, who has been officially stamped, can receive the gift.

I apologize for the offense, as I am the only legitimate heir of Kisosmalos.

"Do you think His Majesty will accept it?""Huh, no."Right now, even the whereabouts of Kisosmalos are unknown, so where would the gifts and anything else be?"

The power is all used up trying to turn back time, so it can't even be exerted.

"Your Highness is a good child, so you will be able to receive it.""Hoo-hoo, good children don't go to jail.""In your case, Your Highness, going to prison would be the act of a good child.""You really hate idiots in a peculiar way, don't you?" Well, if he weren't that kind of person, he wouldn't have splashed dirty water during the emperor's procession.

I honestly believe that your brother played a big role in keeping your neck attached.

"Pisha!" Pisha, come out quickly! It's an emergency!"This aunt with nothing to do has come again."

I didn't want to deal with my aunt, so I rolled around and covered my ears, but this woman shamelessly picked me up and ran off.

"Aunt." Aunt, where are you going?"Bow your head!" Don't even move your mouth while wearing this!"My aunt wrapped me up in something like a blanket and hugged me tightly."

Somehow, there was the sound of metal clashing coming from various places.

✦ ✦ ✦

Come to think of it, this is similar to something that happened before I died.

If there is a difference, at that time, the author known as Grand Duke, who had naturally emerged, went to fight in Media but then turned back, causing chaos from outside the capital. It seems that only a small elite group is secretly entering the palace to fight now.

At that time, we pressed down with quantity, but now it's different.

Is this the act of someone who has no intention of coming back to life? Whether it's the emperor or a minister, there's no way you can kill the one you're targeting and come out alive, right?

If the fool survives, he will be executed for wielding a sword in the palace.

Even if the assassination succeeded, it wouldn't change the situation. Even if the idiot dies, am I not still here?

As long as I am here and my aunt is wielding my authority on my behalf, that person was a dead man.

Given that I met my aunt, I had to abandon the assumption that we would die in chaos. If my aunt was determined to protect me, escaping from the palace was easy. The explosion of Lorowi is one of the three great powers of the Empire.

"Pish." Pisha, it's ticklish."Still, for some reason, I wasn't late this time."

I felt relieved and fiddled with my aunt's waist, which was filled with muscles. Aunt made a sound of displeasure, but I decided to let it go today.

By the way, before this incident, my aunt was keeping an eye on a writer named Kiron. So it seemed that I was able to run to protect me without being late.

Then, is this punishment something that the Duke Kiron has committed?

"Mr. Lorowi!" Don't stop!"I thought that if I stayed embraced like this, I could reach a safe place, so I let my guard down." However, a young man whose voice somehow smelled like milk soap called out to his aunt.

"Did you block my way knowing who I am?" You've got some guts."If you leave this place, you will die!""You?""Yes!" Let me tell you!"Hmm, it seems that you have a good voice, but your head isn't that good."

"Ende brat, no, Duke Kiron has no intention of harming Her Highness the Princess!" Please follow me obediently! If not...!"What if not?""I am dying!""What kind of threat did you come here with?"

It seems that it's already been discovered that I'm inside the wrapping. In that moment, I was fidgeting and trying to peek at that warm-voiced man, when my aunt let out a loud gasp of shock.

"You bastard!" Are you planning to get everyone involved!"If it's you, Mr. Kazelnu, you must know what this is!""What is it, what is it!" What is it with you!

I want to see it too!I barely found a gap and poked my face out. Then, it was seen that a brown-haired man, wearing only a shirt and having thrown his coat somewhere, was rolling up the explosive device of Lorowi around his belly.

"Ah!" Princess, don't be cute!"Crazy Nomad!"This guy is really a complete idiot.

What is that? Are we all going to die together?

If just one of those explosive devices goes off, we all here are going to die, but if all those devices explode at once, it would be instantaneous for even the nearby Ministry of Foreign Affairs to disappear.

"This is not a threat, it's sincere!" In the end, it's as sincere as that bastard! Ah, damn it, you crazy bastard! Die, really!"Who the hell is that crazy bastard?" Don't cry and try to explain slowly.

I have calmed a ticking time bomb of emotional change.

"Ugh, ughhh." That guy, after several years, suddenly shows up and demands my private soldier and my New Year's money! So I guess I'll die!"Why are you accepting all of that?""Do you not know the principle of hierarchy?""I have always been a servant, so I don't know.""You are cold-hearted!" But you are truly worthy of ascending to the throne!"Okay." Thank you for the compliment.

Anyway, escaping in the current situation seemed impossible. Even if my Choco milk hair pretends to be soft and is crying like that, no, crying like that itself means that I have already made up my mind.

That kid will definitely explode and set fire to the place if things go wrong. My intuition is saying that.

"Aunt, aunt." Let's follow."Pisha, are you okay?""Whether I die here or die there, what does it matter?"”

"Pisha!" You won't die!"That's right!" Ende is not the kind of guy who just kills people! That bastard only looks down on my life!"What kind of relationship have you built with that bastard?"

Curious about that, I asked repeatedly, and Choco Milk made a strange face and uttered bizarre words.

"That bastard, uh, uh..." That bastard killed all of his parents and siblings?"Uh...""Hmm...."Uh, shall I pray for the deceased's soul?""No." Well, they are the ones who died because they did something foolish."You are very plain, just like Lorowi whom I met before."

Anyway, if that bastard Ende's purpose is to meet me, then the fight going on between the guards and the external intruders is completely pointless.

Whether they are intruders or guards, they are all people of Kisosmalos. I cannot let innocent people die before me.

"Listen!"I crawled out of the wrapping cloth and stepped on the ground, bothering my aunt.

When I shouted loudly, at least the people around me stopped fighting. Seeing that he doesn't attack even after looking at my face, it seems that my death is not part of that bastard Ende's purpose.

"I will meet that bastard named Ende!" Put away the sword!"As I solemnly declared this, the intruders and the guards raised their voices to relay my command far and wide."

As the word spread that Her Highness the Princess had ordered the swords to be sheathed, those around me fell silent, and one by one, they knelt.

"Let's go, Choco." Guide."Are you talking about Choco?""That's right.""I also have a name, you know?""If it's difficult anyway, I can't pronounce it.""Ah... yes.""Seeing you accept it so readily, it seems the name is difficult."

I confidently walked ahead with Choco, making a popping sound with my shoes.
