The Blond Male Lead is Too Much - Chapter 161

“knife!”
I called out loud. He immediately recognized my voice and turned his head.
The sight of him approaching with the hem of his black furred cloak fluttering was just like a famous painting.
Carl nodded to me with a small smile and bowed his head politely to his grandfather and uncle.
“Are you here?”
“Please take good care of me today, Duke.”
“I am the one who needs to be treated well.”
Grandfather smiled happily and patted Carl on the shoulder.
I’ve felt this way before, but my grandfather and uncle seem to like him quite a bit. Dane also seems to have become close with him after a few training sessions.
Although Deborah and I were distant, we didn’t get along badly.
‘Is it okay if we all become a family like this?’
I blushed as I thought about it without realizing it. In other words, I imagined Karl and I getting married.
Otherwise, there’s no way we could become a family.
“Why are you suddenly blushing? Are you sick?”
Carl, who had keenly noticed my change, placed the back of his hand on his forehead and narrowed his eyes.
“I don’t have a fever… … .”
“Oh, oh, it’s just because I’m cold.”
“Don’t talk.”
Carl readily took off his cloak and offered it to me.
I desperately tried to dissuade him, because I didn’t want to become someone who took someone else’s clothes when they were already warmly dressed.
“No, that’s okay. You really don’t have to do that! The cold is gone now.”
“Still. What if I catch a cold?”
“You might catch a cold too. Don’t worry me and take care of your health.”
After forcing the cloak back onto his shoulders, she tied the strings cutely into a ribbon.
The sword that grabbed my hand let out a sly laugh.
Are you showing off how handsome you are right now? What the… … .
The corners of my mouth slowly rose, unable to hold back, as Dane, who had been watching us with his eyes wide open, muttered while rubbing his forearm.
“Oh my, it’s even colder on my side.”
“Yeah, I never thought I’d feel this way when I look at my sister.”
Deborah shook her head as if she couldn’t stop herself.
“Wasn’t that the best of times? It reminds me of when I was young.”
“Me too, Father.”
When even my grandfather and uncle said that, I felt embarrassed.
Do you feel like you’ve become one of those creepy couples who display their affection without notice in public?
“Ahem! Should I, should I go in?”
He let out an awkward cough and moved inside with his family and Carl.
The prayer meeting was held in the plaza inside the temple where the outdoor altar was located.
I sat down in a suitable place and looked ahead. The Empress and the Crown Prince were sitting on the high table next to the altar.
The crown prince’s blond hair, which I hadn’t seen in a long time, sparkled red in the sunlight.
Dressed neatly in white uniform, he stared blankly into space, but when our eyes met, he nodded his head with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
I felt a little grateful that he greeted me first instead of just ignoring me and pretending not to know me.
In fact, he could have been embarrassed and turned away from me since he confessed and was rejected. The crown prince was not such a cowardly person.
I nodded with a smile. Carl glanced at me and whispered rudely.
“You smile so beautifully at a stranger.”
“What are you talking about, you know? And if you think about it, aren’t you too handsome in front of other women?”
“If you respond like this, I have nothing to say. I’m actually a bit jealous.”
“I felt that way ever since I was a farmhand.”
I don’t normally like jealous men, but Karl was an exception.
If I find your jealousy cute, then I must be really jealous.
As we were having these small talk, time passed by and the time for the prayer meeting to start approached.
Dang, dang, dang.
The bell that signaled noon rang out. Soon the emperor appeared from inside the temple with his vizier.
Now we’re together openly.
The empress, who was supposed to be by the emperor’s side, was with the crown prince at the foot of the altar, but the emperor came down the stairs escorting the high priest as if he were the empress.
Even among the ministers who followed him, there was Raviello.
From the perspective of someone who knew their true identity, it was truly disgusting and repulsive.

But those who didn’t know anything about it only liked the fact that the relationship between the Emperor and the High Priest seemed strong.
“As expected, Your Majesty has deep faith in Solaris.”
“I really feel like I can’t even keep up with the faith of these two people.”
No, no. On the contrary, those two people are the ones whose faith is not even close to yours.
I tried hard to suppress the words that were rising to the tip of my tongue. It wasn’t the time yet.
The emperor, who had arrived in front of the altar alongside the high priest, slowly opened his mouth.
“Today we have gathered together as one under the blessing of God. The peace and prosperity of Herssen have been achieved through the grace of God.”
On the subject of heresy following the devil, the emperor shamelessly talked about God.
Why would he be an emperor at this point? He seems more suited to be a stage actor.
“Under the protection of the Sun God, our Hersean Empire will prosper even more, and future generations will remember our greatness forever.”
As the Emperor’s boring speech continued, my uncle gave me and Karl a small wink.
It was a signal to go out and look for the Holy Sword.
We immediately looked around and quietly made our way through the crowd.
I had already obtained a map of the temple’s interior in advance and figured out where the holy sword might be.
The temple had a western garden, an eastern chapel, and a southern underground chamber.
“Where should we start looking?”
“Let’s go underground. They usually hide a lot of things there.”
I nodded in agreement.
Didn’t we also find our mother’s relics in the basement of Baekjakryeong Temple?
I moved cautiously south. All the priests must have attended the prayer meeting, so there were hardly any people walking around.
We entered the southern underground with ease and searched frantically for the holy sword.
“There’s nothing here. Shailene, how’s it going?”
“It’s the same. I don’t see a single blade, let alone a black one.”
Even though I searched efficiently by dividing the area into sections, I couldn’t find even a speck of dust from the Holy Sword.
“Shall we go somewhere else?”
“good night.”
We moved out of the southern basement and into the western garden.
I wish I had found it right away the first time. It was a shame that the basement wasn’t the answer.
‘If I keep doing this and can’t find the Holy Sword, something bad will happen… … .’
I started to get worried because I couldn’t find it even after digging through the bushes in the garden and digging the ground.
Of course, unless you’re crazy, you wouldn’t summon a demon in front of people, but you never know.
‘They are crazy people who follow the devil in a country that believes in one God.’
No matter when or what I did, it wasn’t strange.
In the end, we, who had not achieved much in the West Garden and were just covered in dust, headed to our final destination, the East Chapel.

Meanwhile, the Emperor’s greetings ringing out in the square were drawing to a close.
“Now let us all bow our heads and give thanks to God for His mercy and grace.”
It was when he turned towards the altar that the main topic of the prayer meeting began.
Bartholomew, who was calculating when to accuse the emperor and the chancellor, did not miss the momentary opening.
“Please wait a moment.”
A voice as majestic as the emperor’s resounded loudly.
The emperor frowned and did not hide his displeasure at the sudden appearance of the intruder.
His eyes looked down at Bartholomew coldly. The Diat family, who stood out so much in the crowd, were truly irritating.
“Your Majesty, what are you doing in this sacred place?”
“I object to Your Majesty and the High Priest leading the prayer meeting.”
“… … Are you crazy now?”
The emperor let out a hollow laugh at the suggestion that he was actually going to rebel against him.
The atmosphere suddenly became unstable as those watching also started to murmur.
Bartholomew walked forward with determination, followed by Benjamin, Dane, and Deborah.
The Emperor twisted his lips as he glared at Bartholomew, who had stopped a short distance from the altar.
“Why, you always insisted that you weren’t a traitor, but now you want to commit treason all over again?”
“I am not a traitor. However, this only applies when Your Majesty is a Sollian.”
“What is that―”
“Emperor Gregory, Archpriest Morphina. I hereby accuse you of heresy.”
The Emperor, as well as Morphina, who was standing behind the altar with her brow furrowed, froze at the words spoken with such force.
A different expression of astonishment came over their faces and those of the attendees.
It was a moment when the peace of the waiting room was completely shattered.
