Chapter 65: To the Empire
My consciousness was blurry, my vision slightly hazy.
It was almost as if I was being rocked by the waves.
I slowly looked around, but I was engulfed in a world wrapped in endless darkness.
The idea of polishing a raw gemstone is understandable.
Eh?
I heard a voice.
So, I turned towards the direction of the voice, but theres no one there.
But what if its a unique gemstone that already shines with unparalleled brilliance?
No, what are you talking about? And who really are
And then, he was there, calmly present.
Seated on a pure white throne with a unique atmosphere, enhanced by the bright red carpet, wasLuke Wizaria Gilbert.
Huh?
He looked at me with a bored expression, resting his cheek in his hand.
Naturally, I couldnt make heads or tails of this situation.
My mind was bubbling with questions like foam.
Yet, he continued talking as if my confusion didnt matter.
There was even a possibility that I could be feared as a monster. Thats what it means for me to make an effort. The weak try to reject what they cant understand.And this world is run by the hands of the weak. Just because they are the majority.
My heart was still in turmoil, a tumult of emotions swirling within.
Yet, strangely, I found myself listening intently.
I couldnt help but lend my ear.
Kuku But then something interesting happened. Your imperfection began to exert a significant influence, becoming a charm of its own among those around you.
I rubbed my eyes, repeatedly grappling with the reality before me.
No matter how much I confirmed, the conclusion was the same: this is the real Luke.
I couldnt quite put it into words, but I was certain.
And yet whats this strange sense of discomfort?
I dont press Alice further as she falters in her response. Im not that interested.
What concerns me more is why that woman, the mastermind, is after my life.
Sigh.
Troubles never seem to end.
There would be no end if I started looking.But, in reality, Im feeling quite good now.
I rise from the bed.
Well, never mind. Im going to get ready, get out.
No, I want to stay and watch.
I wont say it twice.
Because today is the day I head to the Empire.
A few days earlier.
In the study of Lukes father, Claude.
Please, Master! Allow me to accompany Luke-sama to the Empire! Please! Please!
Well, I dont mind.
Oh, thank you so much
While watching Alfred, who is inexplicably teary-eyed, Claude thinks.
(Was he always like this?)
Something has been off about him since the Ice Dragon incident.
Or perhaps, Alfred was always emotionally unstable, and it just went unnoticed.
Claudes questions are endless.
However
Take care of Luke.
Even at the cost of my life.
Some things never change.
Alfreds eyes were the same as they were when he was known as the demon of the battlefield.
