“I will take just one humble thing as a trophy.”
The emperor’s gaze, as if predetermined, turned toward Elze without hesitation.
He briefly took her in as he touched the ring on his pinky finger.
‘Why, of all people, did I catch his eye?’
She tried to lower her head in despair.
“Yes, don’t bow your head, look at me.”
The emperor’s hand gripped her chin and lifted her face.
Unlike his rough hands, his tone was relaxed and gentle.
“Now I am your master, Elze.”
As raindrops fell on her eyelids, she blinked with difficulty. He reached out and rubbed her eyes.
“Stay by my side for a long time.”
On the day of the duel between the Keraano Empire and the Talis Kingdom,
Elze, a maid of the Talis Kingdom, became a prisoner.
“I plan to secretly execute a strategy to reclaim this country.”
“And you are the beginning of that strategy.”
She also became part of the king’s plan for the country.
“The Talis Kingdom has already abandoned you, and now I am your fence.”
“I am the fence that protects you.”
Elze bit her lip at his dry voice.
The reality the emperor revealed was correct. However, her mother was still being held hostage by the Talis Kingdom.
She had to go to the empire and safely complete the mission given by the king.
For her mother. For the country.
“That temperament hasn’t changed at all.”
“After searching the whole world to finally find you, the sight you show me is like someone protesting to death.”
‘Finally found me?’
Something was definitely wrong.
His emotions had clearly found the wrong master.
He approached her closely and raised the corner of his mouth.
“You may not know, but I’ve wanted to reach you my whole life.”
