49 – Morning Star (1)

Noel Estelia.

The only princess of the empire that dominates the current continent.

As she was in such a high position, no one in the empire would know her name, but aside from that fact, anyone who read <The Princess is Loved> would not be able to know this name.

<Gongnyeo is loved.>

Undoubtedly, the main character in this story is Elena Edelweiss, but it was none other than Noel, she, who started the story.

The full-fledged start of the novel was to begin with Elena and Damian breaking up their engagement, but the cause of the breakup was the meeting between Elena and Noel.

When the clouds clear, the girl’s golden hair, which looks like it’s made of melted gold, glistens in the sunlight again. In addition, her unique energetic atmosphere gave the illusion that the sun had come down on the ground.

yes the sun

As you can see, she was a girl who fit the word sun both externally and internally.

The sun illuminates the surroundings just by existing.

The same goes for people. Sometimes among people, there are those who are like the sun that change the atmosphere around them just by their existence. Noel was also one of those people.

So, the meeting between Noel and Elena can be said to be like fate.

Just as the sun gives light and grows flowers. To Elena, who was locked in the darkness called Damian, Noel became her light.

Noel gave Elena, who was passive, the courage to stand on her own initiative. And the courage that Noel gave her is a decisive factor in Elena’s decision to break up with Damian.

It’s literally the beginning of everything, so what can you say if you don’t call the meeting of the two fate?

As such, even though he was Damien now, as a reader of <The Princess is Loved>, Noel’s appearance was right to rejoice.

It is nonsense to say that I am reluctant to appear as a good actor simply because it is the cause of Demian’s breakup. Like Damian in the original, I didn’t do anything to get stabbed. If there was such a thing, I couldn’t even stand in front of Yoheim.

It is said that the story begins with the meeting of Elena and Noel, but it is only a story in <A Princess is Loved>.

I became Damian, and Elena was no longer a flower immersed in darkness like in the novel. Now that everything I know has been changed, no one knows what effect Noel and Elena’s meeting will have.

Perhaps, through this meeting, Elena and Noel could become a bond that only passes by, or a more intimate relationship than the original. But at least I could be sure that the meeting would never go badly. Due to the nature of the two, a plus is a plus, but there was nothing that could be a minus factor.

Even though I knew that nothing bad would happen, my complexion was not very good. I stared blankly at her, still letting out the sound of air escaping from my mouth.

All good. All good…

Why the hell is it today?

Obviously I said I didn’t know what could happen in a year, but it wasn’t even a few minutes since I decided to take a break. At this point, it’s not strange to think that someone with malicious intent is intentionally creating this situation.

It was just my thoughts, but when I saw Noel in front of me, I felt a sense of deprivation as if she had taken my time.

But there was something wrong with her, so I had no choice but to greet her with an awkward smile as she looked down at me with an innocent smile.

***

Corridor of the nature leading to Isilia Pavilion.

Perhaps because there was a flower garden nearby, the scent of flowers wafting from the open window filled the hallway. Hailey, who had been following Elena in the scent, looked out the window with a confused face.

Outside the window, colorful flowers in full bloom were decorating the world.

A warm scent of spring far from merohim.

It’s because she hasn’t had anything to do so far, but since she’s already been in Sarham once, it seems like she’s completely drunk with the scent of spring she’s been taking for the first time in a while.

“Lady, I think I understand a little bit why Prince Damian was so happy.”

It made me feel so good that I could say something like that. I too couldn’t hold back my laughter at Haley’s words and laughed softly.

As soon as he arrived at Sarham, he got off the carriage as if he had been waiting for it. He looked like a puppy who had returned home after a long absence. He didn’t have a tail, but you could easily tell by the look on his face how long he had been waiting to come home.

“me too.”

I affirmed Hailey’s words and, like her, took in the scent of spring everywhere.

It’s not that I dislike Merrohim’s winter, but if I had to choose between the two, I would choose this place. The smell of spring from Krause’s lord’s castle was in line with his body type. The great thing about this place is that you can feel like you’re with him wherever you are.

Intoxicated by the scent, we stopped walking and looked out the window at the scent of spring, forgetting the purpose of going to our room.

“Uh, lady. It’s a blue bird.”

At the tip of Hailey’s finger, she saw a bluebird flapping its wings soaring skyward. Because it had feathers that glowed especially blue, the existence of the bird was clearly visible even in a multicolored world.

Hailey just looked at the blue bird flying around us with a curious face, but I smiled because I knew what it was.

Perhaps it was because of the sudden change of location, it seemed cute to me that they were hovering around the castle as if trying to figure out where it was.

Perhaps, by now, this scene had also entered Master’s eyes.

You probably didn’t think I was leaving Merohim, so I wonder if you’ll get a call from this side soon. Then, since it is in Sarham, even if you want to come in person, you will not be able to come. Would you like to do it through a letter or video?

I don’t know how to do it, but I think I should have thought of the words to reply in advance.

Continuing to look out the window, we began to stretch as if we had already entered the room, even though we hadn’t even arrived yet. Observing bluebirds had already taken a back seat. The spring breeze that blows gently tickles my eyes.

Fortunately, the bird was out of sight before Haley’s eyelids closed completely, and we were brought back to reality.

I said to Hayley, who was still half-closed.

“Anyway, when we go back to our room, we should start sleeping?”

“hehehe… Strangely, since I came here, I’ve been falling asleep.”

The appearance of the quiet castle was also not entirely without influence in making the situation this way. It seems that the frequency of users going around is low these days. Until now, the only person I had encountered after entering the castle was Paul, whom I met when I first entered the castle.

The time he spends with Alphonse doesn’t seem to last for an hour or two, so it wouldn’t be bad to just lie in bed and enjoy the warm sunshine of Sarham today.

As I thought so, I heard the sound of footsteps in the distance.

again and again

The sound of shoes echoes through the hallway.

Hayley’s eyes, which had been almost closed until just a moment ago, seemed to have been driven from sleep by the sound. As the sound of the shoes approached, I too began to feel the languidness that had been revolving around my body.

But this wasn’t something I did on my own, conscious of someone coming, like Haley.

My body reacted to the approaching energy of divinity and conflict with my body.

That means that someone with divine power is now approaching this place. As far as I know, none of the people residing in Lord Krause’s Castle possess divine power… But I suddenly remembered what Paul had said to Damian before entering the castle.

No more footsteps were heard.

But even so, my consciousness now remains clearer than ever.

I slowly turned my head from the window and looked out into the hallway.

Familiar golden hair caught my eye.

Even though I had already guessed the identity to some extent from the sound of the shoes, why? As soon as I saw that face, I stopped frowning.
