I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

chapter 10



10. It’s a bit troublesome when a high-ranking person keeps coming in and out

1.

Eileen’s steps speeded up as she crossed the unnecessarily long hallway unique to the imperial palace.

The composure that had been buried in his facial expressions and movements just before had already disappeared, and now impatience had taken its place.

‘…… Maybe I was complacent.’

While beating herself up in her heart, Eileen’s steps towards the royal villa became faster. Occasionally, when other nobles who knew Eileen’s face came across in the palace, they looked surprised, but Eileen didn’t care at all.

More precisely, she couldn’t afford to look at other people’s eyes.

No matter how mysterious power magic is, there are bound to be limits. Even more so, wasn’t it impossible for even a dragon, which was said to far surpass the human wizard’s skills before returning, to go against the absolute and immutable law of time?

In such a situation, I have personally experienced a strange phenomenon that cannot be explained by any theory, called a return to the past.

That means that no matter what happens, it is not strange, and it also means that there is no law that not only Aileen but also other competitors cannot return.

‘And maybe even Rudrick…….’

Eileen, who was walking briskly toward the royal palace, with random thoughts biting her tail, shook her head annoyedly.

She used to be Eileen, who rarely showed her emotions, like the typical Northerner people think, but now she felt stuffy, like a stone was placed on her chest.

And.

“Hmm?”

Just in time to turn the corner, Eileen ran into the person she was looking for.

Elena Esgeland.

As soon as she saw Eileen, still her second princess, she tilted her head as if wondering.

Red eyes, which some viewers might find elusive, were staring at Eileen. She was unmistakably Elena Ezeland. Even though there is a slight gap between them as they are several years younger than the image in Aileen’s memory.

He was so relaxed that he wanted to punch him for no reason, and his expression of boredom was the same as before and now.

“……I found it.”

“I don’t think I’m looking at the wrong person. Why is the wonder here supposed to be guarding the wall?”

“That’s what I want to ask.”

Elena asked with her puzzled face, and Eileen responded with her firm expression and voice.

The age of the two is similar. Even though the Nord family is a collateral branch, they are descended from the blood of the imperial family. Moreover, Eileen, the grand duke of the Principality of Nord, is one of the few people in the entire empire who can talk comfortably with Elena.

Of course, Elena couldn’t help but wonder.

From Elena’s point of view, her relative, who was supposed to be in a distant northern territory, suddenly appeared, and she had to face herself and question her.

Naturally, Elena’s eyebrows narrowed.

“Did I do anything wrong to you without even knowing it? I don’t understand why he reacted like that.”

“……Yes, it wasn’t just me. This time, you too.”

“What are you talking about… Ah.”

Eileen’s words were omitted, but Elena’s brilliant mind was able to understand the meaning of Eileen’s words right away.

She appeared out of nowhere and Elena hesitated to ask what she was talking about. Then she touched her forehead and chuckled.

“Isn’t it just me? I couldn’t imagine that anyone other than me would have experienced it.

“Don’t talk back.”

Eileen cut it off with her cold voice.

“It would be obvious if you went on an inspection tour of the Earl of Weiss at this timing. What did you do with Rudrick?”

“I didn’t mess around with anything or do anything really weird like you think.”

Elena responded softly, but Eileen still kept her suspicious gaze.

It was normal for her to react like this if she had directly experienced the series of events Elena had undergone in the process of ascending to her throne before her return.

Eileen is the Grand Duke of the Principality of Nord, and even though he did not suffer direct damage because he was far from the capital in the north, the public’s evaluation was like that. In the process of ascending to the throne, he eliminated all of her other sisters, including his mother, and was called a tyrant and deserved to be pointed at.

Elena meant that in Aileen’s head, even if her detonator was already recognized as a bomb that could explode at any moment, there was nothing she could do about it.

All of that was Elena herself.

“Your glare doesn’t mean nothing will happen. I don’t know what you expect from me, but I can assure you that it doesn’t happen like you think.”

“……Where is Rudric?”

“I left it to Lord Tonaly. Then, with such an outstanding talent, do you intend to let him rot in that corner for the next three years?”

Aileen was speechless this time. It was a theory.

Even though that talent was acquired in exchange for lifespan, Rudrick’s magical talent was unmistakably the quality of a great wizard.

Although the direction is different, as the position called the best swordsman in the north, he agreed with the fact that it is a sin to rot such talent. Of course, he didn’t like the fact that the person who did it was Princess Elena, not someone else.

“If you have nothing to hold back, that means you don’t mind if I go see him, right?”

“As far as I can remember, that was the first time I’ve ever seen Kyung cry out loud, maybe.”

“……Don’t attach useless sagittarius.”

“Well, it’s just that I’m not used to that kind of look.”

Elena shrugged her shoulders and grinned. In contrast to Eileen, who had a stiff expression, she was full of composure.

“There is no reason to stop the mighty Grand Duke of Eileen Nord. You can meet or do whatever you like, Lord. I won’t mind.”

“…….”

“Ah, but of course I forcibly put up my identity…”

“Shut up.”

“……I was joking.”

It sucks.

Elena ate her lips, but already her kinsfolk turned away with an angry look on her face.

Looking at her back, Elena muttered as she twisted her hair.

“It’s still unnecessarily serious.”

2.

On the way to discuss future plans with Master in the lab.

Of course, the imperial palace was not a structure in which only one large imperial building was built in an empty field. There were several detached palaces, and several buildings for people other than the imperial family staying within the palace.

To put it simply, the other boys who work here as servants are all nobles.

I’m still a servant of the imperial family, but can I take commoners and use them?

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just as it was historically common in previous lives for royal maids to be called aristocratic wives or daughters-in-law of high-ranking families, so-called blue blood.

It was the same here. Some people commuted to and from work, but there were also a significant number of people who ate, slept, and worked in the imperial palace, and there were separate accommodations for them.

And I was overwhelmed by the magnificence as soon as I arrived at the hostel.

“Wow…”

I could say that.

Still, I thought it would be okay since it was an inn made for nobles, but compared to this, the room I had spent in the manor for twenty years could be considered a pigsty.

“If you experience any inconvenience while using it, please wave the bell to call. Then I will come running right away.”

“There’s no need to come running… Anyway, if there’s anything uncomfortable, I’ll call you.”

“Yes.”

The boy’s attendant lowered his head, carried the luggage to my room, and then disappeared with his rifle. Although he only had about two bags when he said luggage.

If there is a misunderstanding, that friend is not an aristocrat, but an attendant. In her previous life, she was a commoner with the image of a lady-in-waiting.

That said, I’m an aristocrat by nature, and I can’t just manage people with condescension, so I just let them go.

Teacher said that we should get rid of travel poisoning today and start full-scale research or magic learning from tomorrow, so today is completely free time.

I just pressed the bed once, and the feeling unique to the new matrix was perfect. It’s so soft that it can’t compare to the bed I’ve been using before. I’m sensitive to bed and a little sincere, so I thought I’d have a hard time sleeping for a few days from today, but I canceled everything.

Smart.

I was starting to pack my little belongings while giggling at the thought of rolling around on this soft bed, when I heard a light knock.

“Who are you?”

“That… There is someone who is looking for the young master, so I think you should come and see him.”

What I hear outside is the voice of the attendant.

I finally arrived and was unpacking, but was there anyone coming to find me? No one knows in the imperial palace.

I don’t think it’s the teacher or the princess, and I couldn’t think of anyone else who would come find me. That’s why they said they came looking for me, but I can’t keep standing outside the door.

Wanting to know who it was, I opened the door and poked my head out.

Then, an attendant with a slightly troubled expression on his face, and a woman with a face he had never seen before.

A slim face with long straight black hair down to the waist. As soon as the thin eyelashes saw me, they trembled.

Dressed in a white uniform, no matter who sees it, I am an aristocrat- The woman with the atmosphere of advertising with her whole body slowly opened her mouth.

“……I finally met you again.”

And suddenly, she muttered like a tragic heroine in a melodrama.

At this point, I was sure.

The woman in front of me is a regressor.

…… Oh, I was going to do nothing today and rest.
