I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 930



46. Young People Don’t Understand

The downfall of Louis XXIII did not interfere with the old man’s determination to ‘fulfill’ his decision with his wife. Even though the old man suddenly lost a powerful opponent in terms of ‘noble status,’ he still chose to leave at this time, rather than stay and seize the ‘big cake’ left behind after Louis XXIII’s reputation was ruined and his family collapsed.

Perhaps the old man had been preparing for this ‘trip’ for a long time. Soon, after quietly dismissing all the servants at home and leaving everything that could be considered part of the ‘Great British Empire’s noble’ identity intact, the day I had to say goodbye to Uncle Zerola also arrived.

The old man deliberately chose to leave at dusk, after all… everyone would think that this middle-aged nobleman and his wife just wanted to take a romantic and luxurious walk in the sunset, enjoying a rejuvenated second spring, rather than… going on a spontaneous trip.

At this moment, at the agreed location in the royal city, I also waited for the old man who got off the carriage. The vague figure inside the carriage was probably Kefir’s mother. Although in ‘this era,’ I really couldn’t rashly go over and greet her.

“Didn’t forget anything, right? Think quickly, otherwise, once we leave, you won’t be able to go back and get it.”

The uncle nagged like a worried old father. After all… as agreed, after he took his wife on a “trip,” I wouldn’t continue to follow but would “return home.” Without the uncle’s presence, his home would be nothing more than an obvious target, and I indeed couldn’t stay there any longer but had to find another place.

“Hurry back and keep a low profile for a while.”

From what I could see, the uncle only brought the minimum amount of luggage. If he were really going on a “trip,” his preparations would be too casual. Therefore, the uncle wasn’t going on a “trip,” but “leaving,” traveling light to leave the Great Ying Empire in the quickest and most discreet way possible. That was the uncle’s true purpose.

But at this point, there was no need to expose the uncle’s lie.

“Although Louis XXIII has fallen, you can’t be careless. If she blames everything on you, you need to be careful. After all, Louis XXIII still has some assets and might send someone to do something.”

“Thanks for the reminder.”

“But that being said, if your maid can really pin Louis XXIII to the ground, you don’t need to be too nervous… Uh, why are you alone? Where’s your maid?”

“She’s waiting for me elsewhere. After you leave, I also need to prepare to ‘return home.’”

Everyone said their goodbyes with “benevolent lies.” Although this ending wasn’t bad, still…

After a moment of silence, I asked the question I wanted to know, about the uncle, and perhaps… about the entire Great Ying Empire now.

“Uncle, why are you leaving?”

The uncle in my memory was the number one noble of the Great Ying Empire’s royal family. Although I hadn’t seen any turmoil, I believed the uncle in my memory wouldn’t just… leave everything behind in the Great Ying Empire and go far away with his wife.

I… couldn’t understand because if the uncle didn’t have such thoughts, many recent chaos wouldn’t have happened!

“Does traveling need a reason? That’s what you young people don’t understand…”

“Is it really traveling?”

As the words fell, the uncle’s expression became complicated. After a while, he smiled bitterly at me, accompanied by the appearance of a script.

“Still figured it out?”

[Zerora is dissatisfied with the Great Ying Empire and decides to leave.]

The content indicated that this “dissatisfaction” could have many explanations. However… what the uncle told me was… the one I least wanted to hear.

“I have no complaints about the Great Ying Empire, but… given the current situation, right? My wife and I, although part of the royal family, have nothing to hold onto in the Great Ying Empire. In fact, we were never suited for our current roles. Going ‘far away’ might be the best outcome.”

I immediately understood the “reason” of the uncle, because… this reason, from the moment “this era returned to its original state”, was the universal answer to all the contradictions I encountered – Kefir does not exist.

This… even persuasion has become meaningless. So…

“Uncle, if… I mean if, this empire becomes exactly the same as the empire in your mind, can you ‘end the journey’ and come back?”

There was no answer. The uncle’s response was just to give me a thumbs up, then turned around, boarded the car, and left. To keep a low profile, he couldn’t even wave goodbye. After a while, I could only watch the car carrying the couple gradually go away, eventually disappearing from my sight.

Somewhat… discouraged, even if I grasped the script, some things were destined to become a foregone conclusion, and I couldn’t change them. But since all this started because “Kefir does not exist”, at least I have other places that need to be “changed”. If I hesitate any longer, it will not only be the uncle’s departure that deviates from my memory, even the Great Ying Empire will become more and more strange.

After taking one last look in the direction the uncle left, I turned and left.

The prosperity of the Great Ying Empire’s royal city under the sunset did not diminish, but… as I walked, I increasingly felt a sense of “it seems like I’m the only one left around”, and at this moment, I was alone.

After all, the Sword Saint who could defeat the heavens and the earth had already been asked by me to secretly protect the uncle’s departure. With my understanding of the Queen, the Queen would never easily let the uncle leave. As a result, I lost Ludwig’s protection.

But… would it really be easy for the Queen? Not necessarily: the uncle is not a fool. To do anything to the uncle, one must send out equally powerful “trump cards”. In other words… the Queen’s defenses, in the coming period, would definitely be weak.

Danger… or opportunity? It all depends on my choice.

[Euclid was killed by a member of the patrol team.]

[Euclid met Louis IV.]

The death script and the opportunity appeared together. As this contradictory content flooded into my mind, a familiar figure was already waiting for me not far away, holding a cane.

I could read the script in advance and escape, or… I could directly break into the Great Ying Empire’s “death script” for me. And I…

“Is the big shot going to see me?”

I chose to take the risk because I still need to change the “current” Great Ying Empire.

“Smart person.”

Professor Moriarty adjusted his glasses, “Come with me, ‘she’ has a mountain of things to look for in you.”
