I Became the Vassal the The Tyrannical Is Obsessed With

chapter 23



Was there a setting like this for episode 23?

Is there a setting like this for episode 23?

Having come to a conclusion, I took the letter and headed straight to Cecilia’s room.

“Who are you?”

As soon as I knocked, I heard Cecilia’s voice from beyond the door.

“My personal secretary, Luke Nedville, Your Majesty.”

As soon as I gave my name, I was immediately given permission to come in. I carefully opened the door and went inside.

Cecilia was wearing a white nightgown dress, probably because it was bedtime soon.

She always wears a red dress embroidered with a golden dragon symbolizing the imperial family. This is perfectly normal.

Because an emperor is like a mirror that shows the country.

I felt her wearing a nightgown dress was different, perhaps because I always saw her like that. At the same time, I also felt a bit awkward.

However, even in such a light outfit, the elegance was still there.

The full, waist-length blonde hair was just as well-groomed as it was during the day. The only difference is that the momentum of the red eyes that emit a colorful light has softened a little.

Still, since the outfit was light, it couldn’t be helped that the thin lines came into the eyes more clearly. As for the chest that doesn’t feel much flexion…….

“First of all, please forgive me for the sudden insolence in the middle of the night, Your Majesty.”

Anyway, now is the time to put aside your thoughts.

“Not like you. It looks like something urgent happened?”

A curious expression appeared on Cecilia’s face.

“It’s not like we’re competing for the village, but…… Something happened that really bothered me.”

I approached Cecilia and handed her a letter from an unknown sender.

Cecilia took the letter without saying anything, and she immediately checked the contents.

“Hmm… ….”

“What do you think, Your Majesty?”

“Luke.”

Cecilia, who put her letter down on her bed, stared at my face.

“Are you not going to do what this person wants?”

“Yes. How can you trust someone who doesn’t even reveal his identity in the first place?”

“… ….”

Cecilia let out a heavy sigh of hers.

Anyway, why is she asking again?

“Looking into your eyes, you seem to have made up your mind.”

Ah, I was asking one more time to confirm my will.

It was definitely the owner of a prudent personality.

“It won’t take long to find out who sent it through handwriting, if you want.”

Identify the culprit…….

It’s certainly an attractive proposition.

But what can you do after you find out?

From noble mtl dot com

Iza only sent me a letter, but he did not harm me in any way. Even if she is Cecilia, she will not be able to punish this.

“Your Majesty. May God dare to give her opinion?”

“Yunheohaji.”

“Even if you find the culprit through handwriting, you can’t punish him, can you?”

“You are right. That’s why I asked your doctor once.”

I bowed slightly as a sign of understanding.

“The opponent is most likely someone who wants to conciliate me. Perhaps, I would like to be one of the aristocrats.”

“I think so too. That’s why I’m trying to figure out my identity in advance.”

“There is no need to reveal it right now, Your Majesty.”

Cecilia narrowed her brows and touched her lower chin. It seemed like he was trying to figure out the intention behind my remarks.

“You mean to see how the other person will turn out if you don’t respond?”

“As expected, Your Majesty.”

As expected, Cecilia has a sharp sense of politics.

Well, since he’s the emperor, this arrangement is natural.

However, her remarks were enough to make me wonder.

“I don’t like it.”

“Yes?”

“He said he didn’t like it.”

What is it?

I didn’t say anything strange.

Cecilia stared at my face. After a while she slowly pulled herself up with her eyes fixed on me.

“You have more political sense than I expected.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“But still, I am ignorant of the brutality of this place.”

“… ….”

That’s right.

It’s only been two months since I entered the imperial palace.

Of course, compared to Cecilia and her ladies-in-waiting, there are many unknowns.

I don’t know if there’s a lot of useful information out of the information I know about the original work, but that’s not the case, so I want…….

Cecilia blew air out of her mouth and picked up the letter she had thrown on the bed.

“Showing me this letter was a wise choice. It’s just foolish to just try to gauge their reaction. It’s like going to a battlefield without a single sword.”

In one word, it means that you are worried about my safety.

For some reason, a corner of her heart felt tight.

…… Even so, it didn’t change the slightest in my decision to throw out my resignation.

“We apologize for causing concern, Your Majesty.”

“I was the one who personally selected you. So it is my share to be responsible for your safety.”

Having said that, Cecilia tore her letter in half right in front of my eyes. She threw it casually on the floor.

Then she raised her index finger and pointed at my chest.

“As much as you trusted me, I will show sincerity as well.”

“That means… ….”

“I will take my own measures to protect you.”

A faint smile appeared on Cecilia’s lips.

Looking at her, I thought.

As expected, I did a good job running to my immediate supervisor and telling him.

* * *

After Luke left the room, Cecilia sat down on the bed again. She

Lowered her head slightly, and the letter she had torn up came into her field of vision.

I don’t know who he was, but he was a really disgusting person.

You dare to touch my direct subordinate?

Feeling bad, Cecilia slammed her knuckles down a couple of times on the poor bed mattress. She then let go of her long sigh.

‘Is there really no choice but to do that?’

Cecilia’s troubles did not last long.

She got up from her bed again and approached her desk. Sitting in her chair, she pulled out a small black whistle from her drawer.

Cecilia rose from her chair and blew her whistle lightly once. There was no sound from the whistle. But after a while

“Did you call, Your Majesty?”

A woman emerged from the darkness. She covered most of her face with a hood and mask over her jet-black zentai.

She got down on one knee in front of Cecilia, her head bowed as far as she could.

“Lucia. One week only.”

Lucia.

She was the leader of the secret unit ‘Luna’ secretly fostered by Cecilia’s mother and former empress Olivia.

There is only one purpose for the creation of Luna.

After suffering the rebellion of the Hundray duchy, she did not want to suffer such a tragedy again.

The members of Luna were all female, but they were all excellent at martial arts and good at using magic tools.

Thanks to that, she made an outstanding contribution in missions such as security and espionage.

However, only Empress Sun and Cecilia were the only ones in the empire who knew about her past.

“Yes. Your majesty.”

The whistle Cecilia had just written was a magical tool that made it inaudible to other ears, but allowed Luna members to hear it.

Cecilia looked down at Lucia and asked her the most curious question.

“Did my knights safely arrive in Bukryong?”

“Yes. We have arrived safely.”

“Then I’m glad.”

“There was just one thing that bothered me.”

Cecilia furrowed one eyebrow at Lucia’s report. Then I asked what had happened.

“A spy of unknown affiliation was following the Templars. She was suspicious, so I tried to get rid of her, but she ended up kicking me out. I apologize.”

Lucia reported in a tone barely noticeable. Upon hearing this, Cecilia’s expression hardened.

For what reason did the opponent follow the knights?

What the hell are you trying to figure out?

‘Why do so many headaches happen… ….’

But since they said they kicked them out, there won’t be any problems for a while. Even the other side won’t know the identity of this side yet.

“Good work, Lucia.”

“I just did what I was supposed to do.”

Lucia bowed her head once more.

“What about the other members?”

“Everyone is doing their duty.”

“I see.”

Cecilia sat in her chair and looked down at Lucia.

“Lucia. Is there anyone whose mission is vacant?”

“Yes. There is one.”

“I want to entrust her with her new mission.”

“Just give me your orders.”

It just went well.

Cecilia thought so.

Since she gave Luke an imperial knight as an escort, it was certain that she would end up in gossip. She’s in the right situation to misunderstand that he’s giving her preferential treatment.

But what if one of Luna’s members escorts Luke?

She was never misunderstood, and she was also able to feel at ease.

“I want you to escort my secretary.”

“Are you talking about your personal secretary, Luke Nedville?”

“Right.”

“Yes. I will pass on her mission to that child.”

Lucia had no doubts about Cecilia’s orders. She just thought that as Luna’s leader, she had to faithfully fulfill that order.

“I’ll call Luke here at this time tomorrow. Bring the child.”

“I will keep this in mind, Your Majesty.”

Lucia disappeared as quickly as she appeared.

Cecilia got up from her chair to lie down on her bed. She then frowned when she found the letter she hadn’t put away.

I’ll have to call her maid.

As Cecilia tugged at her slings, her waiting maid entered.

“Burn what fell here.”

* * *

The next day, as I told Cecilia, I did not respond to the request of the sender of her letter.

No, in fact, it had to be that way.

It was because a lot of documents came in today. By the time I finished my work, it was almost 8 o’clock.

So even if I wanted to go, it was physically impossible due to time constraints.

I went back to my room after work and immediately laid down on the bed.

“Ah. Today was a tiring day…….”

I hope the weekend comes soon.

By the way, what steps will Cecilia take to ensure my safety?

Actually, I wanted to ask in the middle, but I didn’t think to ask because Flora and Mulia were paying attention.

‘Well, there is no need to rush.’

It’s been less than an hour since I rejected his proposal.

So there won’t be any danger to me right away.

After having dinner in my room, I took a full-fledged rest.

At ten o’clock in the evening, someone came to my room.

– Smart.

“Who are you?”

“My name is Hellon, butler, Secretary Nedville. His Majesty Cecilia has been looking for the secretary.”

Oh. It looks like you’ve finally come up with the plan.

I quickly checked my clothes and then left the room. The butler kindly showed me to Cecilia’s room.

“Your Majesty. I brought Secretary Nedville.”

The butler informed the door, and Cecilia gave permission to come in.

Carefully opening the door and going inside, she was able to face Cecilia wearing the same nightgown as yesterday.

“After receiving His Majesty’s call, I ran right away.”

“Looks like you’re looking forward to it?”

“Yes. The truth is, Your Majesty.”

Cecilia smiled lightly as I tightened her waist.

“As you probably expected, I intend to give you an escort.”

“Your last name is indescribable.”

“The loss of her competent subordinate creates a gap in her work, so it’s a matter of course.”

That’s right. I was just a paper-reading machine.

I forgot about my situation for a while because Cecilia was taking care of me. Stupidly

She took a small black whistle from her desk drawer. Then she immediately put it in her mouth and blew it, but to her surprise no sound was heard.

What is that thing used for?

In the midst of my doubts, two women wearing jet-black body tights suddenly appeared!

No…… How did you appear?

“Your Majesty. I brought the child as you commanded.”

“What is your name?”

“My name is Elaina, Your Majesty. It is an honor to have an audience with you.”

They talked among themselves without me.

Hey, I can’t keep up with this situation right now?

At that time, Cecilia introduced me to them and put the main point in her mouth.

“Luke. Ilaina, who is here, will escort you from now on.”

Was there a character like this in the original work?
