Tensei Oujo wa Kyou mo Hata o Tatakioru

Chapter 40



The reincarnation princess’s reference.

“It was faster than expected.”

After the evening’s mouth, in the king’s bedroom.

The betrayal of my expectation that I was shouted at not to disturb my work, the king always told me plainly, with no expression as always.

“Are you left?”

I don’t think I’ll be foolish if it’s too late, I don’t know what to say because I was too fast. I guess she was probably being despised, but she muttered weakly without any biting energy.

“I have kept you waiting”

“I’m not waiting”

“… Sayoudesuka”

This time, he muttered to dump.

Mental points are already close to zero. I want to go home. I want to return my heels and go home.

I don’t care for me, whose eyes are as cloudy as a dead fish, my father starts walking with his candlestick in his hand.

In the back of the large room, there is one sober door that does not fit into the gorgeous Renaissance style wall with fine patterns painted in white on gold.

I inserted an antique key from my pocket and once turned my eyes on me. I don’t have words, but I feel like my eyes say it’s coming.

Push the desire to return and follow.

The room is dimly lit and has no decoration, in contrast to the gorgeousness of the table. The size is about a quarter of a bedroom. It feels too narrow because of the large bookshelf occupying one side of the wall. There are no windows, but the air is not stagnant.

Furniture other than shelves is only for tables and chaise longues.

Dad does not hesitate to pull out the book from the shelf and give it to me.

Without seeing me confused, I put the candlestick on the low table and lay down in the chaise longue next to me.

Pull out the wine bottle and pour it into the glass with rough movements.

The father, who drank as if moaning in water, pulled out the bookmark that was sandwiched between the thick books and resumed reading.

I’m really relaxed.

Who is this person? Father? No, definitely not. Probably a shadow warrior.

I was confused while standing with no expression.

The man in front of me, Randolph von Velfalt, is my real father, but has nothing to do with my private life.

While my personal life was a mystery, I thought that I might be working on holidays.

What is a father who doesn’t work? I can’t even imagine the minimal activities of sleeping, eating, etc. as a human. Rather sleep? I thought even that.

“…………”

You’re really relaxed.

Sinking in a fine leather couch, immersed in reading while drinking a second glass of wine. His lying position is far from well-behaved.

The profile illuminated by the light of the candlestick seemed to be a little loose, and my father seemed more human than usual.

“Don’t read?”

“To read”

Asked and returned reflexively.

“Nara, sit down.

“…………”

No, where is it?

While holding the book, I looked around the room silently. As mentioned above, furniture is only tables and chairs. There is no point in having two chairs.

There is no place to sit, even if you are told to sit.

“Come on.”

I was staring at the dark carpeted floor, as if it wasn’t on the floor.

When you raise your face, your father beckons. Hit your couch to lie down, as shown here to sit down.

“……e”

Because it is a large chaise longue, there is enough space for me to sit around.

I can understand at the head. But my mental is saying no. What kind of penalty is reading with my father?

“Do not allow taking out. If you want to read, read here.”

“……Yes”

I thought it would be nice to bring a chair, but in the end I swallow my dissatisfaction and return.

If you get kicked out of bad mood, you can’t wait. Say hello to him and sit down in a vacant space next to your father’s belly.

If you come this far, I’ll open it again I think my father is a bit of a novel backrest.

Place a book on your knee.

The paper was discolored because of the age, and the letters on the cover were faded and disappeared.

Take a deep breath to calm down the throbbing chest with the tension and uplifting of a valuable book. Stroke the dull indigo cover, then open the cover.

“……………”

I turned to the inside cover, staring at the first page, and I got stuck.

No way. I’m stunned if that happens.

No, if it’s true, the first thing to worry about. I didn’t even think because I was stupid. Why didn’t we settle this before visiting his father’s room?

Even if you regret your indiscretion, you can’t help now.

The only thing that comes to mind is to come back, but is there really a second chance?

Squeeze the shivering fingertip.

Oh, how stupid I am! It’s stupid, really stupid.

No way, ――No way.

“…………”

I ca n’t read it …… !!

The book on my knees that is beaten is a book written long ago.

Naturally, the characters are also different from the current form. I can’t read at all.

Why didn’t you come up with such a natural thing?

“Can’t you read?”

“Well !!”

Suddenly a voice is heard and the body jumps.

He made a thirsty sound. Looking slowly, my father, lying down on his face, stopped reading and looked at me.

Cold sweat came down on my back.

“…………”

The voice turns over to the tension.

What should I do, what should I do? Do you want to be honest or do something? I do not know which is the correct answer. However, depending on the response, you may lose the opportunity to read the book.

The thoughts are spinning around. I don’t know anything about my father, no matter what the trends and measures.

The result of asking yourself what to do and what to do.

“I can’t read … but I can!”

If I noticed, I was returning such an idiot-like answer.

Dare to rush in while doing my thing. What’s that.

I can’t read, but what do you read? Guts? Is it a brute force?

“Really”

eh. No plunge? ?

I was confused because I was through. Even if he stares at his father’s face, he remains expressionless. No laugh, no anger. Maybe you’re amazed, but you can’t tell by looking at your face.

The father who wakes up looks into my book from behind.

“Can you read modern history books?”

“Yes”

You can read almost any library history book. I’ve been learning since I was five, so I’m going to have some training.

“If there is, there should be a part that can be read …. Look at this part.”

Father reaches his hand and follows the sentence of the book with his finger.

“Now read” Nebel Kingdom “”

Puyo, I can’t read …

To be honest, it looks more like a pattern than a letter.

“Complicated characters have only been gradually simplified. Of course, there are many phrases and place names that are no longer used today.”

If you look after being told, it’s certainly not invisible …?

If you try to replace complicated patterns that imitate ivy and feathers with points and curves, you will feel like they are almost modern.

The official language of our country, Nebel, consists of 26 letters like the alphabet.

In other words, should we count the number of symbols, simplify them and apply them to modern language?

“Father, can I borrow paper?”

I found a clue to the solution and suddenly became motivated.

I got permission to use it, and borrowed paper and pen from the next room, so I started writing vigorously.

The father behind seems to have returned to reading, but he didn’t care anymore.

“…………?”

Okay, I transcribed.

After nodding satisfactorily, review. I stopped counting my hand for possible leaks and tilted my head.

No matter how many times, there are thirty. Four more?

“There will be four more”

“ What !? ”

Voices are heard at exquisite timings as if the voice of the heart was heard.

I’m too surprised and I can’t hear anything. Earlier, I thought that this person might be trying to shorten my life, while holding down the bell that hit me early.

But looking back, my father hasn’t even looked at me. The gaze remains fixed in the book at hand.

“Except that. You can see because it is always used as a set of four letters.”

“Eh, yes …”

The words that came over were the right advice.

If you rush through the book, you will surely see four characters. Special characters that are always used in sets of four and are not used in other combinations.

Extract and apply the other 26 characters to modern languages. Then, extraneous four characters emerged.

The other characters seem to imitate nature or creatures, but it is hard to imagine what these four are. Even so, I am worried for some reason.

What is this?

“It’s a character that shows the Demon King.”

Again, Father opens his mouth as if he had read my doubts.

“I guess he would have been willing to apply the evil king, the greatest contraindication, to the existing characters. He created four new characters and banned them from being used as anything other than the word for the evil king. It’s said that he didn’t pronounce it or that he was a person, but he’s not sure. ”

“ Is the Demon King a person !? ”

“You’re saying you’re not sure.”

I was bitten, but returned calmly.

Is it just one of various theories?

“Read more quickly than that. I’ll sleep as soon as I’ve read it.”

Paku, and his father defies. I think I saw something really rare, but now it’s better.

Before being kicked out, you must read what you can read. Following my father who resumed reading, I decided to focus on books.
