Tearmoon Empire Story

Episode 200: Like the end of a happy dream….

The night of the first day of horse matching.In the south capital, there was a secret incident.

“Nh… hmm?”

It’s about the late night.

Stryna woke up to the sound she heard from the hallway.

The trick, the trick… and stepping on the floor, it was a quiet footstep.

It was Straina who instantly suspected the assassin of the snake, but the footsteps passed in front of the room.

Looking in the direction, it appears to be heading outside the building.

Remembering the split of the building… and thinking about the arrangement of the guards that had been checked beforehand, Straina leaned her neck.

–On second thoughts, I wonder if the assassin who misled the guard’s eyes would ever notice the footsteps of Lena.

Then she looks at Belle, who was sleeping in the bed next door.Drop the blanket off the bed and smile bitterly at the bell in a slightly slender look.I’ll put the blanket back on you.

Then secretly open the door and face the hallway.The back of the walking girl jumped into my eyes.

“That’s….”

The girl walking with long black hair, her pin and stretched spine were dazzling – she was a horse of fire.

–Where are you at this hour, Mr. Huima…?

While gazing around, Huima headed outside the building.Remembering the bustle, Straina sneaked out of the room after wearing a top coat over her bedtime clothes.

Is it a wild conjecture?There is no escort on Huima’s way.Mia, a heavy town, is out on the horse, so we had to disperse the power, and it was originally arranged to guard against intrusions from the outside.

It’s easy to get out without guidance.

–I guess Ludwig couldn’t help but arrange for Mea’s escort….With Dion Alia, I would have noticed and stopped, but I’m following Meer.

With such thoughts in mind, Stryna quietly chases after the Horse.The horse that left the building without difficulty apparently headed towards the stables.

“… maybe, Huima-san, you’re leaving alone? Hmm?”

And at that time. Several figures came from before Huima.

“Oh, Mr. Huima? What’s the matter with you at this hour?”

It was Raffina Olka Velga who shook her cool hair under the moonlight.

“Virgin Raffina… What are you doing here?”

Raffina smiled calmly at Huima’s suspicious voice.

“I was praying for Meer’s victory.”

I wonder if there’s a guard behind her.It even looked like Lin Maroon.

“… Raffina-sama, if I were with Senpai Maroon at night like this, it would be quite misleading…Well, it looks like the Velgar Servants are with us, so are you okay? ”

Straina decided to keep an eye on the situation, tilting her neck small.

“So, I’m going to ask you a question, what are you doing? Mr. Huima.”

“That’s… that’s right. Take a long ride…..”

“At a time like this, alone…?”

Raffina stares suspiciously.

“No, the night ride is pretty good, isn’t it?That was Miss Raffina the other day…. ”

“Maroon-san….”

Zocri… I wonder why, there’s a goosebump on Straina’s spine.

Raffina looks back at Maroon with a cool smile on her face.On her back, Straina feels an unspeakable sense of intimidation….

Apparently, that also leads to Dragon Ma….

“Oh, yes. It was a secret. Hahaha”

I didn’t know!

–If I told you a secret, it wouldn’t be good…

and Shtrina, who puts the clatter in her heart,

Maroon-san!

Raffina screams. Wherever the intimidation had gone earlier, it was a girlish voice full of shyness somewhere.

Looks like something happened… not to mention that.

Raffina coughs a little.

Huima-san, are you trying to leave alone?

That quiet question. Huima clasped her fist.

“I know Princess Meer is working hard for us.That’s why I can’t do nothing. ”

Slowly raised his face, Huima continued.

“… look at the Chieftaincy Council interaction… no, I’ve been thinking about it for a long time.The Fire Clan… if it weren’t for my brother, it would soon be accepted by the Horseback Kingdom…The problem is the use of wolves.But that is not something that anyone can use.Only my elder brother and I can use it.If so…. ”

“If Huima takes the wolf out of the family of fire, all the pieces will stick together?”

Raffina’s inquiry was almost emotionless and flat.Whether you realize it or not, Huima continues to care.

“All the families of fire are kind.That’s why you’re not kicking me out, and you’re trying to protect me.But you can’t spoil it.I’m the surest way out. ”

“Hey, that’s….”

Raffina shook her head small, holding the dragon in one hand, trying to pinch her mouth.

“Yes, I’m sorry. Mr. Huima.I thought you were a good friend to Meer. ”

Raffina sighed… and then stared at her horse.

“If you were a true friend… wouldn’t you ever doubt Mia’s victory?At least I believe you.As a true friend of Meer’s. ”

Meer’s treatment in Raffina is pretty awesome… but no one was here to point it out.

“It’s not about winning or losing.Putting our fate on Princess Meer’s shoulders, putting unnecessary burdens on herself…. ”

“Don’t you want to bother your friends?”

Raffina said, blocking the words of Huima.Raffina continued in a harsh tone to the horse that bit her lips.

“But I just want to ease your feelings.It’s just a escape.It’s rude to Meer and to everyone in the Fire clan trying to protect you. ”

“… but…”

“It’s okay, because Meer will never lose.If you call Meer a friend, you should believe it.And if you think you’ve caused trouble, I hope you can help Meer this time.Aren’t you just friends to help each other? ”

Raffina said with a core voice that didn’t shake at all.

“Great, Raffina-sama seems to be putting it together well….”

She saw the exchange and sighed with relief.Honestly, if Raffina hadn’t come out, I’m sure she wouldn’t have convinced herself.

Stryna thought Huima was right.

After all, without the Horse and the Wolf, the Fire clan can return to the Horseback Kingdom without complaining.

There’s no need for Meer to push it any further.

That’s why, as for Stryna, you need to push the back of the Horse of Wisdom…

That’s a rational way of thinking… but…

“Really? Lina can keep Huima…”

Because there’s Meer.

For what Meer is trying to do, that’s the right thing to do…That’s why Straina can make a gentle decision.

I’m so happy to be in such a gentle and warm world… is that why?

… I was fatally delayed in realizing that I was approaching from behind.

All of a sudden, I can be held down so that I can snuggle around.

“Nhhh!?”

At the same time, the cloth was pressed against the mouth and nose.

While recognizing the sweet and dangerous smell, Straina realizes who she is.

–Ah, this is a bad one…

Even if you rush and stick your hands and feet, your body quickly becomes numb and weak.

“Nh… nnh…”

It’s hard to resist, and your knees are breaking.Fluffy, it feels like you’re drunk.Fluffy consciousness, shaking in ambiguity…

– Belle, honey.

That voice doesn’t make a sound…

“No, I don’t think I can find a traitor here.Dear God, I’m not good with kids…. ”

The voice sneaks into your vague thoughts.Like a cunning snake.

“Well, the witch princess is very good at using people, so I’m sure the traitor will use it without wasting even a single strand of hair.I will carry it carefully so as not to damage it at all. ”

While listening to such words in diminishing consciousness, Strina sinks into the darkness.

It’s like the end of a happy dream…
