Come Here, Tyrant! - Chapter 127

“Woah.”

Annie marveled as if she had discovered a dragon for the first time. She approached and reached out her hand to Ejed to get lifted.

His dark hair, wet with water, was tangled in her little finger.

“Crazy. Why is Your Majesty, Sir Ejed​​, so kind?”

“…..”

“Even if you’re kind, you’re too kind. Why are you so kind? You’re so kind.”

Ejed was confused. Is it a compliment, or is it an expression of burden?

Anyway, he wants to look good on Annie, and he has a history of traveling on the battlefield by himself. That was no excuse.

Even if he protected his own people, he made other people hurt. As she waited for his response, holding her breath, he heard a sigh.

“Be careful. It’s a world where you lose money if you’re too kind.”

“…”

“A tyrant or something. Isn’t that some weird rumor? No, he. You did fight a war. How did such a man win the war?”

Ejed’s ears reddened as he heard her talk to him. Fortunately, Annie did not despise him.

It was good, and he was grateful. He bowed his head, trying to hide his shameful face.

Ejed was silent, and Annie sighed and was carried on his back.

The soft feel of the dress and the warm body temperature hardened Ejed.

He was the first to tell her to get on his back, but he didn’t know he’d naturally make physical contact like this.

“Am I heavy?”

“No, no. No.”

Having held Annie’s legs firmly with his arms, Ejed stood up. Then a tinkling laugh rang in his ears.

Ejed’s nervous steps became stiff. He felt his mind suffocated by the little breath on his neck.

“Still, thank you for coming. But I don’t think I’ll be able to give advice. I don’t know what kind of nonsense I’m going to say right now.”

“It’s okay.”

Ejed, who replied kindly, went down the hill with accuracy and speed.

In his mind, he wanted to walk slowly, but Annie had to rest.

No matter how much she drank the hangover drink beforehand, she would have accumulated fatigue. Annie needed a break.

Still, a short conversation might not be greedy. He carefully took out a word.

“Today… you’ve worked hard.”

Ejed’s sweet voice blended into the night air.

“It’s hard work. All I can remember is drinking today. Oh, I drank a lot of that vodka.”

“That’s strong.”

“It’s not just me that got its strength; they can’t wake up tomorrow.”

Annie smiled wickedly and slowly blinked her eyes.

Even the feeling of her eyelids touching his back was vivid, and his heart felt like it would explode.

Ironically, he even thought that he was envious of her colleagues. And next time, he wanted to try drinking properly with Annie herself.

He seemed to be becoming greedy somehow.

“It’s amazing. They all have the same purpose of just drenching your throat. Wine, spirits, beer….there are so many different kinds, aren’t there? Each one has their own preferences.”

“……”

“I think it’s the same with human relationships. Just like I can’t like all alcohol, I can’t be the kind of person that everyone likes.”

“…..”

“Of course it is, but it was a little different today.”

There was bitterness in Annie’s always confident voice. She’s tired too.

No one is used to being hated. No matter how much they loved what they were doing and making money, they could never just let it go.

The pain in her heart was evident in the sound of her trembling breathing. Ejed, who had been listening quietly, said with all his heart.

“Annie. I prefer Kerbaek’s ice wine the most. The predecessor Emperor also liked it the most…”

“…..”

“But you are as good as that wine to me.”

‘No, you’re beyond comparison.’

Unable to utter all the words, Ejed looked up at the night sky.

He was glad it rained today. The night sky was clearer with rain clouds passing by.

Because of that, the starry sky seemed more beautiful. It was Annie’s favorite scenery.

Ejed, slowly slowing down his pace, continued.

“And I think it would be nice to wear low shoes in the future, but if makeup is difficult, don’t do it.”

“… We have to welcome envoys from other countries as well.”

“What’s wrong with that?”

Ejed spoke firmly to Annie several times. Don’t care about other people. Just do what you feel comfortable with.

Still, he told her a few more things that were not usual.

“There is no law requiring you to wear makeup and high heels to work in the Porkaus Empire.”

“…..”

“Do whatever you are comfortable with. If someone says something, please tell me.”

“Haha.”

Annie let out a small laugh and buried her cheek on Ejed’s back.

She was not used to the warm and hard back. But she wasn’t uncomfortable either.

“Thank you for listening to me, Your Majesty. To be honest, it’s nice to have Your Majesty, Sir Ejed ​​here. It seems that my luck from leaving the house is back… No, it had never gone out.

“I see.”

Ejed responded affectionately to the drunken Annie’s babbling. He could listen to them all night long.

Annie’s story is good. She wants to constantly listen to her mouth habits, frequently used words, and her clear voice repeatedly.

After a while, Annie’s even breathing was heard.

Ejed, who had stopped his steps, looked at the empty night street and made a decision.

‘If we go up the carriageway like this……she will wake up.’

It was far away, and it was better for him to use his magic circle to move.

Now that he has regained the magic of an adult, it was not unreasonable.
