He hugged me tightly, rested his chin on my head, and sang softly to me.
“But if I make even one mistake and can’t protect you, I think I’ll regret it more than letting you go.”
“I know, what you mean.”
If the situation had been the opposite, I would have tried to send a knife too.
He patted her on the back, then raised his head with sharp eyes.
Carl blinked, narrowly avoiding hitting his chin on my forehead.
“Are you saying that you don’t mind if we break up forever?”
“That’s… … Even if I had been honest from the beginning, you would have said no.”
“Of course. How did you know?”
“There’s no way I don’t know you.”
Carl snorted. He felt embarrassed and annoyed at being seen through, and pursed his lips.
“If you knew, you shouldn’t have tried to send it in the first place. This is ridiculous, really.”
“Okay, I was wrong. I’m sorry.”
“If I really believed what you said and got hurt, what were you going to do about it?”
“I trusted you. I believed that you would see through my lies and my sincerity, just as I did.”
“Anyway, you speak well.”
He clenched his fist and hit the sword’s side hard. The sword bent over with an exaggerated expression of pain.
“I think my ribs are out.”
“That’s funny. Don’t joke around.”
“Yes, master.”
I was staring at the smiling face, and then suddenly I became curious and asked.
“Did you tell your grandfather and uncle?”
“yet.”
“Then let’s talk together and find a solution. If we join forces, we can solve it.”
He grabbed Carl’s hand and spoke firmly. Come to think of it, he hadn’t even summoned the devil yet.
We still had a chance.
You can fix everything before it happens.
Carl and I nodded as we locked eyes. Our hands clasped together became even more firm.

Carl and I told our grandfather and uncle about the investigation log.
The two people who had been listening intently became enraged and their faces distorted at the mention of the heretic planning to offer me up as a sacrifice.
“Who the hell dares… …!”
“Father, I guess I have to make a decision.”
The uncle declared coldly to the angry grandfather.
“It is absurd for a country’s leader to believe in heresy. Her Majesty the Empress and His Highness the Crown Prince should also know this fact.”
I flinched involuntarily, because I understood what my uncle meant.
The idea is to depose the heretic emperor and have the crown prince ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
Maybe Karl’s parents were after this too and wanted to show the list to the empress.
“Then I will go and meet Her Majesty the Empress first.”
“What if they refuse to cooperate with us?”
Karl, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two, asked sharply.
“The relationship between the Emperor and the Empress is not very close. In particular, the Emperor has been keeping his son, the Crown Prince, in check, so the possibility that he would reject the hand we extend is extremely low.”
Suddenly, he remembered the time when he was going in and out of the palace to attend to the crown prince, and the emperor suddenly barged into his son’s office and got angry.
The relationship between the rich and the poor did not seem ordinary. The emperor was wary of the crown prince, and the crown prince resented his father and tried to stand up to him instead of giving in.
“Still, as you said, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to prepare for an emergency.”
The conversation ended with Grandfather patting Carl on the shoulder.
While the two of you approached the Empress, I decided to keep my body as hidden as possible.
Of course, I really didn’t want to do nothing, so I thought about how to prepare for that eventuality.
‘The best thing is to expose the Emperor and the High Priests’ true colors in front of the people.’
No matter how absolute the emperor’s power may be and how difficult it is to tamper with, if the people do not want him, he is bound to lose his power.
The people of Herssen, who believe in the sun god Solaris, will never tolerate a heretic emperor.
‘But how do we put those two people in front of the people?’
It was the emperor and the prime minister.
While I was thinking about how to bring together those who were not easily summoned, an unexpected opportunity came.

“Miss, this is a letter from the palace.”
I took the envelope Mandy handed me and checked the contents. Then my eyes widened.
‘Prayer meeting… …?’
The idea was to hold a large-scale public prayer meeting at the Imperial Palace and the Central Shrine to mark the end of the year.
It was written that the temple would be opened to receive attendees regardless of social status, and that nobles who received an invitation were urged to attend.
‘Wow, anyone can see that it’s suspicious. Why is there a year-end prayer meeting all of a sudden?’
The Great Prayer Meeting itself was an event that was held often, but it was usually held at the beginning of the year or around the time of the founding of the country, and this was the first time it was held at the end of the year.
I’m not the only one who thought there was some kind of plot here, as my grandfather and uncle were against attending.
“If we go, the two of us will go alone. You guys just stay home and rest.”
“Yeah, there’s no need for the whole family to go through the hassle of moving.”
But unfortunately, things didn’t go as they had hoped.
The imperial family unilaterally released a list of attendees to the prayer meeting, and the names of the Diat family and myself were clearly on it.
No, are you a gangster?
In this case, it would be quite difficult to refuse to attend. It has already been announced to the public that you are going, so why would you make up excuses to get out?
If you’re not careful, it could become an excuse for an attack and the situation could get worse.
‘If you think about it differently, the Emperor and the High Priest will come together at the Great Prayer Meeting.’
It wasn’t a bad thing for us to use the plan they had made as we pleased.
There’s a reason why they say if you can’t avoid it, enjoy it.
After organizing my thoughts, I went straight to see my grandfather.
“Grandfather, have you met Her Majesty the Empress?”
“Yes, Your Majesty and His Highness have decided to join us. We will hold a court meeting and use the list and the investigation log as evidence to drive out Your Majesty the Emperor and the High Priest.”
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager chose to take an active role instead of taking a step back.
I waited quietly for my grandfather to finish speaking and then cautiously expressed my opinion.
“How about reporting the two of you at the prayer meeting?”
“At the prayer meeting?”
“Yes, if you reveal your true self in front of the people, it will be difficult to get away with it later.”
“Hmm, that’s true.”
I presented another idea I had prepared to my grandfather, who was sitting with his arms folded and deep in thought.
“And when the temple is opened, how about we find the holy sword hidden there?”
So that if anything goes wrong, we can seal the demon again.
My grandfather, who had been listening to me, nodded slowly.
“Yes, I think it would be best to do as Shailene says. There’s no harm in finding the Holy Sword in advance. It would also be a good idea to detonate it in the Great Prayer Hall and then call a court meeting.”
“Right?”
My grandfather, who had been staring at me with a proud smile, made a worried expression.
“But are you going to attend the prayer meeting too? Why don’t you just make up an excuse that you’re sick and skip it… ?”
“If everyone except me attends, I will be anxious, so how can I just stay at home?”
My family and the people I love were all going, so I couldn’t be left out.
“While my grandfather and uncle are accusing His Majesty and the High Priest, I will go and find the Holy Sword with my sword.”
The accusation itself could proceed without me, so I thought it would be better for me to provide other assistance at that time.
My grandfather held his head and fell into deep agony. It seemed that he was not easily able to give permission for fear that I would be put in danger.
After groaning for a long time, he opened his mouth with difficulty and spoke.
“If you are not alone and the Duke of Calciad is with you… …then do so.”
“yes!”
I answered vigorously and smiled brightly. I was glad that I could do something for the people I cared about.
I don’t know what the future holds, but I hope they are as safe as possible.

The morning of the Great Prayer Meeting dawned.
I was neatly dressed in a sky blue dress with a cloak-like top.
Since it was a prayer meeting and not a party, the other family members were generally dressed calmly.
As Grandfather and Uncle prepared to file charges, they finally shared information about the heresy with Dane and Deborah.
The two briefly expressed regret at having to keep this a secret for so long, but soon promised to lend a helping hand.
So we all rode in the carriage together and headed to the central temple.
When I arrived, the area in front of the temple was already bustling with people.
Even in the complex space where nobles and commoners mixed together, I quickly found a familiar face.
