Chapter 150. Song Of The Fall?

    ?

    ‘About 15 minutes away from the capital, birch forest, wooden houses, and houses with many children.’?

    ?

    Tamon began searching for the child based on evidence that Mana had received from Natasha Roanti’s maid.?

    ?

    It was noticeable to visit every house and knock on the door, so he searched for houses with babies during the night.?

    ?

    Fortunately, the characteristics of the tulip knights he brought were silent and quick in action.?

    ?

    ‘There are no signs of a baby in this house.’?

    ?

    ‘We also checked three houses in the east. There was a baby, but it was a girl.’?

    ?

    After examining the allocated area, Tamon opened the map and handed it over to the knights who had finished reporting.?

    ?

    After about four hours of work, he came home first.?

    ?

    If his knights couldn’t find the baby, tomorrow they had to widen the radius a little bit.?

    ?

    This was all he could do for Asha in Tanatos now.?

    ?

    He could peel the flesh and bones out if she wanted to, but that wasn’t going to help Asha.?

    ?

    This revenge belonged to Asha, from trivial to large.?

    ?

    Gillotti Tanatos would have to pay back the sorrow and pain that had dyed her eyes red with his spirit, body, and that humble soul.?

    ?

    For that purpose, Tamon only followed Asha as her hands and feet.?

    ?

    Hands and feet did not move for a price.?

    ?

    He just followed what his brain wanted.?

    ?

    But his scruffy head today seemed to reward his hands and feet a little.?

    ?

    “You haven’t slept yet.”?

    ?

    As if waiting for him to come back, he approached Asha with delight as she came out of the front door.?

    ?

    “I have a place to go with you.”?

    ?

    “……now?”?

    ?

    At Tamon’s words, Asha reached out to him and said,?

    ?

    “Shall we go for a walk?”?

    ?

    * * *?

    ?

    During the day, Asha spent most of her time with her face hidden or in costume.?

    ?

    She didn’t remove the makeup when she was in the mansion, to avoid the surveillance of anyone who might be there.?

    ?

    Because of that, Tamon has rarely seen her original face to his heart’s content recently.?

    ?

    Tamon tried hard to sleep next to her because she removed her makeup just before she went to sleep.?

    ?

    Seeing her original face in the darkness was more addictive than he thought.?

    ?

    He would count Asha’s eyelashes like a madman, or appreciate her breathing. There were a few times when he stayed up almost all night.?

    ?

    Maybe he was a real pervert, as Asha said.?

    ?

    It was also a fresh shock and fun to realize that this would happen if he were crazy about someone.?

    ?

    But now, Asha came out with nothing covered. It was a very strange thing to do.?

    ?

    Moreover, Tanatos in July, there were many people who stayed up late.?

    ?

    The taverns were constantly visited by customers until dawn, and the streets were not dark due to the lights of the braziers and stoves placed all over the street.?

    ?

    It passed 2 a.m., and there was a possibility of running into someone here, but Asha wandered the street without a care in the world.?

    ?

    “Can you walk around like this?”?

    ?

    Eventually Tamon grabbed her wrist, and asked cautiously.?

    ?

    Asha smiled and looked up at Tamon.?

    ?

    “Yes.”?

    ?

    “……I don’t know what you’re up to.”?

    ?

    “It’s not a big trick. It’s just….”?

    ?

    Asha took a step further toward the empty street.?

    ?

    “……I’m going to be a ghost of Tanatos.”?

    ?

    She raised her fingers to her lips, stopping Tamon from chasing her.?

    ?

    “Over there, stay quiet.”?

    ?

    Tamon had no choice but to sit tight and watch her suspicious behavior, as her intentions were clearly communicated.?

    ?

    ‘What the hell is she thinking about in that little head?’?

    ?

    From the time she was Empress of Tanatos until now, Asha surprised him time and time again.?

    ?

    Looking at the straight head raised and clear eyes, it was clear that she was about to do something again.?

    ?

    Tamon’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Asha standing in the middle of the empty square street.?

    ?

    When Asha looked at him like that, somehow he couldn’t stand it.?

    ?

    Not knowing what he couldn’t stand, but strangely, he felt a stirring under his navel and his body became hot.?

    ?

    It made him look forward to something instinctively??

    ?

    And to his great surprise, Asha did something Tamon never expected.?

    ?

    [May this country be blessed, white winter.?

    ?

    Be the weapon of this country, the cold of the flesh. We are your…….]?

    ?

    A smooth voice resounded calmly through the dawn.?

    ?

    Incredibly, Asha started singing.?

    ?

    * * *?

    ?

    Gillotti, who couldn’t resist the urge and poured his powers on Roxon, fainted less than a day later.?

    ?

    It was the day of the third dinner with the Pentheion Continental Union.?

    ?

    The first and second dinners showed only bad things to each other, so the third dinner was very important.?

    ?

    However, during the dinner, which managed to continue in a not bad atmosphere, Gillotti went out without overcoming his temper once, and fainted.?

    ?

    He was fine throughout the dinner, but as soon as his interests conflicted, he fainted, and the Allies suspected that he had intentionally “fake faint.”?

    ?

    It was Gilotti who was displeased with them.?

    ?

    John held his leg and begged to talk calmly, but the Allies visited him with a fiery temper, saying that the emperor of Tanatos had deceived them.?

    ?

    Eventually, the Allied delegations packed their bags without completing the festival.?

    ?

    “The emperor is not ready yet, so I promise you next year!”?

    ?

    They did not hesitate to turn around and leave Tanatos.?

    ?

    As many as seven countries’ combined envoys turned their backs at once.?

    ?

    John grew ten years older in those few days, and Gillotti insisted that he would not interact with those arrogant allies for ten years.?

    ?

    The court nobles missed the former empress very much whenever Gillotti did this.?

    ?

    And whether or not those aristocrats’ hearts touched heaven, a startling rumor began to spread in the capital.?

    ?

    “……what, the ghost of the Empress is going around?”?

    ?

    It was a rumor that the ghost of the deceased Empress wandered around the capital while singing.?

    ?

    * * *?

    ?

    “……ghost?”?

    ?

    Of course, the rumor went into Gillotti’s ear.?

    ?

    Roselyn’s ghost wandered the streets at night and sang a song about the founding of the country.?

    ?

    A more bizarre phenomenon was that she had left a burnt-out flower in places where she passed.?

    ?

    The public added an arbitrary interpretation, saying it meant the downfall of the current dynasty.?

    ?

    The Empress, who died unjustly, returned from hell to kill the emperor.?

    ?

    “……Huh?”?

    ?

    Gillotti stared in horror at the burnt artificial flowers brought by the captain of the guard as evidence.?

    ?

    The news he heard as soon as he woke up from bed was that the ghost of the former empress was going around!?

    ?

    A ghost? A ghost? Then that nightmare day. Was it really her ghost that led him to the previous Emperor’s room? No, it doesn’t make sense. There’s no such thing as ghosts, right??

    ?

    Gillotti threw burnt flowers on the floor with a white face and covered himself with a blanket.?

    ?

    Roselyn here, Roselyn there!?

    ?

    The lack of substance has strangled him. Gillotti was really going crazy.?

    ?

    He was suffocated to think that the spiteful woman had indeed returned as a ghost.?

    ?

    Didn’t it mean that his power wouldn’t work on her ghost now??

    ?

    How do you use the power of death to a ghost whose body is dead, how!?

    ?

    “What a useless power!”?

    ?

    This humble trick that made him faint just because he killed a few people felt like a curse.?

    ?

    “Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!”?

    ?

    Tanatos in July must be unconditionally fun.?

    ?

    The festival was still in full swing outside, but only Gillotti, deep inside the palace, was quietly going mad.?

    ?

    * * *?

    ?

    Ghost rumors seemed to have had their own effects.?

    ?

    Asha looked grimly at the envoys leaving Tanatos much earlier than scheduled.?

    ?

    In this chaotic situation, Gillotti will not be able to afford to keep an eye on Hans.?

    ?

    He gained some leeway to gather power safely and pursue it.?

    ?

    “We have to coax the Countess of Mexis.”?

    ?

    Mexis was the family of Deputy Commander of Katren.?

    ?

    It was the very family of the Vice-Commander Katren, who had lost his life severely for the crime of disobeying the emperor’s orders to protect Roselyn.?

    ?

    The unjust death of an outstanding daughter alienated the Mexis from the palace.?

    ?

    Maxis was the only family who dared to express their disappointment at the palace and survived.?

    ?

    If Gertium defended the entire country, it was because Mexis were one of the main families defending the capital.?

    ?

    The entire force was not comparable to the Gertium, but in any case, the first family to move troops in the event of a rebellion in the capital was Mexis.?

    ?

    In order to appease the family, the first person to approach was not Count Mexis or his eldest son, the Golden Lion.?

    ?

    “The scariest thing in my family is not my father or my brother. Who is it? It’s my mother. She has a lot of spirit hidden in her small body.”?

    ?

    Asha remembered Katren, the vice commander who was talking about the family as if he was embarrassed.?

    ?

    She once again pulled herself together heavily.?

    ?

    Asha, who was thinking about the Mexis, finally remembered one person she had forgotten.?

    ?

    “Come to think of it, what happened to Anna?”?

    ?

    She was so distracted that she didn’t even think about finding Anna.?

    ?

    She received a message that she would arrive by mid-July, but now July 20 has already passed.?

    ?

    Someone knocked on the door of the mansion as soon as Asha thought she had to find her.?

    ?

    Surprisingly, Anna appeared in an incredibly shabby appearance in front of her, who was surprised to see if it was actually Anna.
