The Obsessive Male Lead Made Me The Female Lead - Chapter 104

Emelia continued to talk, moistened her lips once, and then said.

“Then, just now, I suddenly got a communication with an unknown communication code. It was Young Lady Brittany when I received it.”

“… …”

“Suddenly, she asked if it was safe in the north and if she could come this way, so I asked what the hell was she talking about… …”

Arnold rushed and urged her as Emelia was unable to spit out her words.

“It’s okay, so you can speak comfortably.”

“The capital was overturned by the evil dragon and became a colony.”

“!!”

Arnold’s eyes widened.

“But the walls of the capital are stronger than before… … !”

As Gregory denied and refuted reality, Emelia said.

“Your Highness Kronos lifted the barrier.”

“What?”

“They were helpless because the Crown Prince lifted the barrier to the capital. The capital is no longer viable.”

Emelia finished her speech with a bitter look.

The barrier was a solid device, but there was no way to handle it if it was released from the inside.

It was all the more useless after it had already come in during that time.

So, there was a limited number of people who could lift the barrier.

One of them was Crown Prince Kronos.

Gregory was in distress as he rubbed his face.

The capital that I thought was impregnable was breached.

Furthermore, it was because of the imperial family.

How do you deal with this aftermath?

“Most nobles took refuge or died. The commoners tainted by the evil dragon started a riot.”

“Oh, my God…”

“The quick-witted nobles fled in a hurry, but those who did not… … .”

“Since the capital was opened by the imperial family, the common people must have been disturbed. Even more so, if they are stained by the evil dragon.”

Gregory responded with cold eyes and stared at the Imperial Knights.

Are they aware of this?

Maybe they’ve already been tainted together.

Was the evil dragon this intelligent from the beginning?

Gregory was overwhelmed with complicated feelings as he faced the situation.

Emelia continued as he glanced at the Imperial Knights.

“After the capital was devastated, the Crown Prince staged a coup. Perhaps those over there followed him in revolt.”

“Yes, I suppose so. Ha, how come I’ve never noticed that he was being manipulated by the evil dragon?”

TL/N: Maybe cause Kronos was a pretty shitty person in the first place LMAO.

Gregory couldn’t believe the current situation.

No matter how evil a human being is, there are gaps. 

This is because the evil dragon cannot control the black energy that appears when it tries to control someone.

But Kronos and the Imperial Knights were different.

It was not visually distinguishable at all.

‘Tiarozety’s statement that the evil dragon became stronger was true. What should I do now?’

Gregory thought of the emperor after much consideration. 

Everything, even down to the fact that he had clearly been injured.

“The Emperor? Has he taken refuge with the Marquis of Brittany?” 

“That’s…” 

“Answer me quickly.”

“The emperor could not take refuge. The evil dragon went straight into the Imperial Castle.”

“What?”

“When the Marquis of Brittany later sent a spy to the capital, the emperor was already heavily poisoned.”

“……”

“Most likely met his demise.”

“Ha…!”

Gregory burst out laughing.

The emperor is dead.

Was the great man, the unbending old man, such an easy man to be killed?

Gregory couldn’t believe it until he saw the emperor’s body with his own eyes.

To know that he, who only seemed so strong, was killed in one day like this, even by his own child.

It was a shocking ending that I didn’t expect at all.

It was then.

“What does all this mean now?”

Seirin was leaning on Betty and looking this way, when she woke up.

Gregory found Seirin and approached her and grabbed her arm.

“Seirin…”

But Seirin pushed him away and approached Emelia.

“Emelia, I asked you what you were talking about.”

Seirin’s voice trembled.

Her eyes swayed dizzyingly like a ship that lost its rudder in a strong wind.

“Seirin.”

Emelia called her with a troubled face.

It was because it would have been a shock to explain to her who had just woken up.

They were quietly talking away from her space just in case, but before they knew it, she seemed to have overheard it.

When Emelia stared at Betty standing behind her, Betty bowed her head and didn’t know what to do.

TL/N: Bruh this Betty is pretty useless.

Then Seirin grabbed Emelia’s shoulder and said.

“No, right? You’re lying. Your Majesty, why… Why is my brother… The capital was overthrown…”

A face that was greatly agitated at a glance.

Emelia grabbed her arm to calm her down.

“Seirin, you have to get your head straight at times like this. If you are shaken, what will the future of the empire be?”

“Emelia, why don’t you say no?”

However, it was not enough to calm down Seirin, who was already shaking a lot.

Seirin shouted, holding Emelia’s shoulder fiercely.

“Say no, Emelia! It’s not, huh?!”

As Seirin became enraged, the Imperial Knights in the distance wore looks of suspicion.

This conversation may not be heard exactly, but Seirin seemed to be raising her voice.

“Seirin, I know you’re surprised, but……”

Emelia narrowed her brows and equivocated her words.

Seirin shook her head as if she didn’t want to listen to her, and stubbornly held on.

“Nope! It is a lie! It’s all lies!”

Then Gregory hugged Seirin tightly.

“Seirin, calm down. It’s okay. It’s okay.… .”

Seirin’s body trembled like an aspen leaf.

She said, looking up at Gregory with desperate wide eyes.

“Huh, brother, it’s not isn’t it? Eung? That’s right.”

Gregory licked his lips, but couldn’t help but shut his mouth.

Seirin’s expression softened in vain.

After a while.

“Aahh…”

Seirin couldn’t stand it any longer and let go of consciousness.

It was too big for her to handle.

“Seirin!”

Gregory supported Seirin as she fell.

Gregory was heartbroken because her limp body was so thin and fragile.

If the fixation of Kronos had progressed, it would be difficult to live as a normal person even if purified.

All that was left was him and Seirin.

Then, suddenly, the surroundings became noisy.

Gregory’s face turned ferocious.

It was because Kronos approached with a triumphant face under the protection of the imperial knights.

A black aura was swirling around him as if he had no intention of hiding it anymore.

Gregory growled at Kronos’ brazen face.

“Kronos, you bastard… …”

He slowly got up from his spot, leaving Seirin to Betty.

Lively eyes stared at Kronos.

* * *

After finishing the tutorial, my head was cold.

The facts that I heard from interrogating the maid were quite shocking.

Kronos revolted.

It was obvious that he came to the north for that.

It must be for an invasion.

It would have been difficult to penetrate the northern part of the country.

‘I have to hurry back.’

Then the guide said.

– The hidden stage will end soon. Then you enter the main stage.

‘Main stage?’

As soon as I was puzzled, I was out of breath as if I had fallen into the water.

After a while.

“Heoeog!”

When I woke up, I took a deep breath and opened my eyes.

My vision was blurry.

It was as if I had just drunk sleeping pills and woke up dazed.

Seeing the floor shake, it felt like they were moving me on a stretcher.

I shook my head and tried to come to my senses, but someone grabbed me.

“Tiarozety, are you awake? Can you hear me?”

“Emelia?”

“It’s going to be chaotic, but we have to take refuge first.”

“What?”

“Can you walk?”

Emelia raised me without an explanation.

“Emelia, sleep……!!”

I snapped out of the confusion and looked at the situation around me and lost strength in my body.

The Black Knights and the Imperial Knights were fighting with their swords pointed at each other.

And the nobles were taking refuge under the cover of the knights.

Outside of Asher Castle, the barriers of barrier magic broke apart, creating gaps and disappearing repeatedly.

There was a tight confrontation between those who wanted to break the magic and those who wanted to keep it.

It was a messier situation than I had thought.

‘They  must have escaped out of the castle through the cracks in the magic.’

However, running away like this was not a solution.

Now that Kronos was in the possession of the evil dragon, he had to be stopped.

If I had to use my power, I was willing to use it to stop his tyranny.

I stopped walking and said to Emelia.

“There is no point in running away like this.”

“Tiarozety?”

“Emelia can take refuge with other nobles.”

“You can’t do that! What is Tiarozety going to do if you stay?!”

Emelia was terrified and dragged me away.

It was a broken barrier right in front of me.

I can safely escape with just one more step, but it was foolish to go back like this.

‘But… I’m the only one who can stop Kronos.’

I read Kronos’ thoughts in my dream.

He came to the North for one reason.

Summoning the evil dragon from the north and properly destroying the north.

Even after arriving in Bael, it was to complete the summoning circle.

I came to a halt like a stone and Emelia begged me.

“Tiarozety, don’t be stubborn. The Crown Prince became a descendant of the evil dragon. First of all, we need to widen the distance and then come up with countermeasures.”

“No. If you’re going, go alone, Emelia.”

“Tiarozety!”

At Emelia’s call, I calmly expressed my intentions.

“If the crown prince is in the power of the evil dragon, I should remain even more. You know, I have the power to do that.”
