Come Here, Tyrant! - Chapter 134
Rai, unaware of that fact, asked in a fresh tone.
“You said you’d never been to Kessen?”
“Ah, yes. I only saw a little bit of illustration during the Academy days.”
Annie tried to calm herself down. Right now, it was polite to focus on the person in front of me.
Rai, who sat across from her, kindly explained to her.
“Then let me tell you. Kessen is definitely different from Porcaus, especially when it comes to climate.”
“Yes. I’ve heard that it snows a lot.”
“It’s not just snow. The snow almost reaches my knees. Every house is full of magic plants, and when I was young, I almost always played in the igloo.”
“Igloo.”
“My grandfather always scolded me for breaking it a few times while playing with my friends…”
“Haha.”
He told her about the country’s scenery that seemed to have been blessed by the Snow Queen all year round. Shiny ice castles and slippery icy roads, those who skillfully train their bodies.
With that mysterious story, Annie could get her thoughts away from Ejed.
Kessen felt like a world buried in pure white snow just hearing the story.
“It’s amazing. Snowing up to my knees when it snows.”
“It’s based on my knees. If it’s Annie, it can come up to your waist.”
“Oh, my God. I can’t go. It’s difficult if I go and my life is threatened.”
He said it with a cheerful smile when she said it half-jokingly and half-seriously.
“What’s the matter. I can carry you on my back.”
It was a strange tone to pass as a joke. And his eyes were full of sincerity.
Rai added his words in a serious voice.
“So you can come and play anytime. It’s better if you do it sooner.”
Annie opened her eyes wide, startled by something other than Rai’s outrageous proposal.
A memory of one night that suddenly came to mind.
‘Uh….. uh.’
[“It’s okay. Drinking will automatically disinfect it.”]
[“Where is that from?”]
[Come on, get up. ]
‘… Annie Mill Dsev, let’s just die.’
How could she forget her promise to the emperor and not anyone else? No, what kind of disgrace did she make to someone younger than her.
‘Ah… I met His Majesty on the day of the dinner… ‘
Annie’s face turned pale at the thought of her waking up.
[“Your Majestyyyyyyyyyyyy! Your Majesty, Your Majesty. Your Majesty. Wow, you are flashing in East and West today.”]
‘Oh my gosh.’
They didn’t just meet. She was fiddling with Ejed’s hair, teasing him, and even getting angry.
She also spit swear words—unconventional swearing at colleagues.
Annie wants to hide in a mouse hole right now.
“Annie? Where are you uncomfortable?”
“…… No, no. No. It’s fine. I’m thirsty. Let me get you another drink.”
Annie drank a glass of tomato juice and looked at the menu board. For no reason, she thought she preferred to drink to moisten her throat rather than to think of more alcohol like that night.
Then Rai asked, looking at the menu, with an innocent smile.
“What kind of drink is Porcaus famous for? Oh. Is this vodka?”
“No! No vodka.”
Annie, who spoke without realizing it, bit her mouth.
She smiled awkwardly at Rai, who looked at her puzzledly.
“That. Vodka is very strong.’
“Don’t worry. Kessen beats the cold with alcohol.”
“… I should go and learn sometimes.”
Annie mumbled and buried her face in the menu board.
In the meantime, she let out a sigh.
‘Alcohol…. Alcohol is the enemy.’
She felt her resolve to restrain herself in the future. How could she have done such a terrific thing, yet she didn’t even apologize so blatantly?
Perhaps Ejed was surprised by the incident, or he was so angry that she even imagined he was not looking for her.
Otherwise, there’s no way she wouldn’t be able to see the person she usually met more than once or twice a day.
‘Driving me crazy…..’
Annie, who managed to order a drink and a glass of alcohol, sighed inwardly.
‘I’ll just have to eat and then go back and think. How will I properly apologize to His Majesty… ‘
“Annie. Does Porcaus have a ban on using magic after drinking?”
“…..Ah, yes.”
“I’m sorry. There was something I wanted to show you more.”
Having already sipped beer, Rai clicked his tongue.
He forgot that every country has laws against drinking and magic. It was such a mistake.
When Rai was really sad, Annie asked a question as a courtesy.
“What are you trying to show me?”
“Rose-shaped snow.”
“Oh my God. Can you do that?”
“Yeah. It’s even better at night. Well, I only took one sip, so I’ll show you a little later…”
“You can’t.”
It wasn’t Annie who answered, but the person spit out Kessen language skillfully.
As she raised her head, she saw the face of a familiar man.
“If you come to Porcaus, you must obey the Porcaus law.”
‘….your Majesty?’
Annie quickly hardened. She couldn’t even say his name in a situation where a foreign envoy was in front of her.
She was vaguely pretending to know. Of course, Rai wasn’t like that, but she was troubled if there were strange rumors from the envoys of other countries.
A scandal like the fact that a new official of the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the emperor are close.
As she hesitated, Ejed’s expression hardened. The more that happened, the more Annie became more and more difficult.
‘…..Oh, I’m going crazy.’
Then, Ejed suddenly smiled.
“Annie. You were here.”
It was a bright smile that was dazzling just looking at it.
