Once Again Into the Light, Alone - Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Then the emperor took out the holy water, placed it in his hand, and gently sprinkled it on my hair, the holy water hanging on my hair like dewdrops,

Just as the Emir Empire believed in the god of light, holy water was made in the temple of light, and the divine power of light was similar to my elves.

When I met the holy water, I felt that the elves around me were strange. They floated in the air excitedly and danced.

“It looks good.”

I saw the scene and couldn’t help but stretched out my hand into the air. Then, one of the light elves, ‘Lulu’, fell on my palm and smiled happily at me.

I heard someone whispering, “Did you see it? The princess smiled.”

Upon hearing this, I tried to maintain my image as a princess, but the expressions in people’s eyes reflected lovely signals.

Soon, Tyrion and I are sitting on the throne together. This is a very burdensome seat because you have to accept people’s eyes.

Later, people started chatting, saying it was words of blessings, and offering gifts, in a way from high to low titles.

The endless gifting team, so I have the opportunity to rethink the nobles in the capital.

Starting from a high position, earl, marquis…

The gifts they gave were varied, but they were undoubtedly rare.

I looked at them curiously, they always thought I was cute, and it took me a long time to come up to offer gifts.

Time passed boringly, feeling fresh at first, but getting boring. Finally I couldn’t help but yawned ……what……

Maybe because I’m a  baby, my concentration is weak. Seeing the dances of the dancers and the music of the musicians, I still feel bored.

At this moment Isis came over.

I suddenly felt a little bit energetic. Did he bring a gift?

When he got closer, I found him empty.

I sit on the emperor’s seat, and he will naturally approach the emperor’s throne.

The emperor holding me seemed to have heard his words, and faced the situation calmly.

Stepping back a few steps, the attendant walked over in a panic with the sword placed on the red velvet.

It is wrapped in a scabbard decorated with gold and black, beautiful and delicate.

ㅡHe wants to give me a sword?

I blinked.

But according to common sense, Isis cannot give me a sword. I am just a child less than a year old, so weak that I can’t even lift a sword.

Sure enough, the owner of this sword is not me, Isis.

Isis walked towards me slowly, knelt beside me, and took my hand. I was taken aback by this sudden intimacy.

Isis smiled faintly, trying to reassure me.

“My lovely sister.”

He smiled slightly.

“Congratulations on your first birthday.”

His kneeling posture is like the faithful knights treat their monarch.

His voice resounded throughout the banquet hall, and the banquet scene was silent

The emperor slowly stood up, and gradually I could see the shoulders of Isis kneeling on the ground.

“Isis de Hermi, I have heard your idea.”

“Yes, Father.”

“I told Aisha that I wanted to be her knight’s vow.”

In an instant, people exclaimed.

My mother, the empress is no exception.

The banquet hall was quiet, and even the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.

The vow of the knight, what is that?

That was the eternal oath of the Emir Empire, known as the “Knight Empire.”  Generally speaking, the objects are lovers, family, friends and other people who are most important to you. But such a pledge has always existed in name only, and almost no one has made such a promise.

Because the knight who made the vow must protect the vow to the death with his faith, reputation and life.

This is not a mere vow.  In order to protect the pledger, he must give his life at all costs.

No matter how young Isis is, since he is the crown prince and understands this tradition, he cannot fail to know the value of the oath.

In that case, does he still swear to me? Besides, why would the emperor agree with him?

I am very confused.

A unique successor like Isis should be regarded as a treasure.

Isis answered,

“Yes.”

“You should be aware of the weight of this oath. Are you confident that you will not regret this decision?”

“I have enough confidence.”

“Then hold the vow.”

The emperor held me and gently lifted the sword held by a side attendant with one hand.

I thought it was just a ceremonial knife, but when the scabbard was opened, the blade was very sharp.

The attendant respectfully took the scabbard and took a step back.

Isis watched the emperor’s ceremony firmly.

The emperor held a sword, and the side of the sword slowly landed on Isis’s left shoulder.

“This is an honor.”

Then, the sword fell on the right shoulder.

“This is faith.”

Finally, the sword held high was shining brightly under the light of the black chandelier.

“This is power.”

The emperor put away the sword.

“Do you swear to protect your pledger with all your honor, conviction and strength?”

Isis looked at me with his transparent and clear green eyes.

I heard him take a breath.

The next moment, he spoke.

“of course……”

“what!”

I waved in a hurry.

If it was normal, I wouldn’t make such a loud sound, but this time it was different.

I’m really worried.

I yelled and waved my arms, and the emperor holding me was a little surprised.

How can I sign an oath without my consent?

I was anxious, and Isis looked at me with round eyes.

I……

Seeing my actions, the emperor spoke as if he could read his mind.

“Oh, yes, the consent of the parties cannot be omitted.”

The corners of the emperor’s mouth twitched, obviously because of my cute behavior.

Yes, because of me, because my behavior is so cute, I can’t laugh or cry.

Isis’s expression is also very subtle, as are the faces of other people. But the one waving my arm is too small, as if I want to hug him.

The expressions of the other nobles were the same as him, and their mood at the moment was reflected on their faces.

But I was extremely desperate.

ㅡI hate this kind of burdensome oath.

because……

Even the strongest oath, even the deepest oath,

People don’t know when they will change or betrayed.

So just don’t look forward to it, you will live more comfortably.

“Aisha,”

at this time,

Isis called me, with a faint smile.

“I’ve said the same before?”

When did you say it? My eyes widened.

“No matter when and where, I will guard you.”

He whispered, only I could hear him.

“You are my miracle, my wish, my good luck.”

“…”

“From now on I will become stronger until I have the ability to fully guard you.”

“…”

“So, wait for me.”

His eyes that seemed to be able to speak contained deep conviction.

I raised my eyes and looked at his eyes for a long time before I woke up.

There is no way to stop him.

…fool

Isis is a fool.

I haven’t fully opened my heart to him yet, just because I am his sister, and because I inherited half of my lineage, he is always full of love for me.

My heart is anxious and itchy.

I finally couldn’t help it anymore and held his outstretched hand tightly.

There was a big smile on his face.

“I swear, I will dedicate everything I have.”

His crisp voice rang in the banquet hall, and then thunderous applause rang out in the silent banquet hall.

People chanted the names of me and Isis.

Isis stood up from his seat with a happy smile on his face.

The atmosphere in the venue is very warm.

Since the ceremony just now was so pious, the banquet seemed to need a short break.

After that, it is time to receive gifts again. But unlike before, I was immersed in the aftermath of moving.

Thanks Isis.

Thank him for his dedication, which makes my heart full and satisfied.

Yes.

I muttered in my heart.

Perhaps, unfortunately, it is over.

The emperor holds my warmth and mother’s love, and Isis’s smile…

Because I have so much precious wealth, I may never have to experience those hardships again.

The past is over, I will be happy if I live.

Well, maybe it is.

For the first time, I had a vision for my future.  It felt like a dazzling light passed through the dark sky.

But does Goddess Serena want to laugh at me like this?

Surrounded by touch and warmth, I heard a sound like a bolt from the blue sky.

“Next person!”

Does misfortune always come after happiness?

I took a breath. The moment I don’t want to face comes after all.

“Envoy of the Edenbell Empire!”

I’m almost out of breath.

“…Aisha? “

I took a closer look to see if it was strange to hold my father. I knew he would be confused, but he didn’t even have time to hide himself.

I felt my face turn pale.

Who?

What?

Could it be someone I know? what should I do?

I want to know, but I am also afraid to know.

If I can, I want to stop and escape forever during this time.

However, cruelly, in my vision, blue came into view first.

He staggered into the banquet hall.

blue.

The blue belongs to the prince Lakias…

…Is his unique hair color and look.

His pupils are very different not only in the Edenbell Empire, but also abroad.

But it’s impossible,

He can’t be here. Why was he sent here the first prince?

Yes, definitely not.

I tried desperately to reassure myself, but my heart was still pounding and I couldn’t help it.

“Aisha, are you okay?”

The relatives around looked at me.

Seeing my pale face, my mother quickly screamed.

“Aisha!”

I closed my eyes tightly.

I’m scared.

I prayed because I couldn’t bear it.

This time it was not Serena, the god of Edenbell, but “Rominas”, the god of Emir.

“weu wo laia ow” (Please don’t let Lakia come)
