58. You’re Only Five Years Old And You’re Saving The World

“…frog?”

I heard Oscar’s voice muttering quietly. At the same time, I also felt everyone’s eyes on me.

“A frog?”

Lissandro asked again. I laughed in cold sweat.

“I saw a frog leave!”

“A frog?”

“I guess not!”

I passed it off, pretending that I didn’t know anything. Then, Daddy, with a serious expression, tuck my hair behind my ear and asked tenderly.

“Mabel, are you scared of frogs?”

“Ung?”

“Don’t worry. Dad will dry the seeds.”

“……”

There was silence. Oscar, Lissandro and the priest looked at Dad as if it were absurd. I spoke sternly to cultivate Daddy’s personality.

“Poor frogth. If frogth disappear, Daddy is a bad person.”

“Bad…person?”

Dad seemed shocked, but frogs weren’t important right now. I looked at the man who introduced himself as the educational priest.

‘He’s handsome.’

His red eyes were the same color as Aiden’s, but with a different feeling. His appearance was the striking color of divine. How old was he? He didn’t look that old. How on earth did he get into the library? Security wasn’t bad since only the Royal family can enter.

There weren’t one to two things that were suspicious, but I didn’t intend to pursue it right away. It’s because I wondered if there was a reason for his signal for silence.

‘As soon as I return, I should ask the animals to watch him.’

First of all, I needed to find out what he’s here for.

“Nice to meet you, Hael. Ah’ll be in your care.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

In the library, he used the informal language without hesitation, but he felt like a completely different person now with his formal language. Plus, blonde hair and red eyes…

‘The King definitely has blond hair and red eyes too…’

There was a strange sense of incongruity. It can’t be the same person. Because it was said that Abelardo’s King was a very old grandfather. However, not only the appearance, but also the name ‘Hael,’ there were a lot of things going on.

‘Are you his grandson?’

It was when I tilted my head. The kitty, who had been lying down, jumped up, waved its tail softly and wandered around Hael.

“Kitty!”

I called to the kitty in surprise, but instead of coming back, it looked at Hael’s face openly.

‘What is it? Come back quickly.’

[Hmm. Mabel, I feel a peculiar energy from this priest.]

‘What kind of energy?’

[The amount of potential divine power… although it’s not as much as Mabel’s, it’s impressive.]

‘…huh?’

I blinked at Hael gently. Of course, our eyes met. He just stared at me without laughing or avoiding my eyes. It felt like I met those eyes before. But of course, that wasn’t possible.

Daddy, who looked at the guest with stern eyes, asked lowly with his chin raised.

“The King has directly recommended you. What is your position?”

“I occupy a place in the Presbyterian Council.”

“You look young still, are you an elder already?”

“Size of potential divine power does not depend on age.”

Hael replied calmly and without any fluster to Daddy’s question, which seemed to be interrogating him. The more he did so, the deeper my doubts.

‘Something is definitely strange.’

But I couldn’t clearly explain what was strange. Hael’s gaze returned to me as I was groaning alone, trying to figure out the cause of my doubts.

“I would like to begin teaching Her Majesty the Emperor right away. The training schedule is quite tight because the King’s expectations are high.”

Daddy looked at him with low eyes.

“Right now? That’s a little tricky. Mabel also has a schedule.”

“What is her next schedule?”

I couldn’t remember what it was. Did I have anything next? I tilted my head thinking whether there was an emergency meeting.

Oscar, who had been quiet the whole time, replied instead.

“A nap.”

“Yes?”

“It’s time for Mabel to take a nap.”

Then everyone nodded as if it were natural except for Hael. Hael’s gaze at me was absurd, and I buried my face in my knees to hide my red face.

I want to hide in a mouse hole!

‘A nap isn’t dignified at all!’

***

A child’s body was too inefficient. You have to sleep during the day and night. I had my own pride, so I endured the urge to take a nap, but I was defeated.

“I fell asleep…”

I opened my eyes and went down my bed, rubbing my sleepy eyes. Lalima, who was waiting for me to wake up, brioche my hair.

“It is said that the priest is waiting for Your Majesty in the reception room.”

“Really?”

He said that we should start class today, and he’s really waiting. I stared in the mirror reflecting my drowsy face. The little girl with pink hair stared back at me. There was no dignity at all. I can’t be threatening with such a face.

“I want to gwow up fast.”

“Oh, why?”

“Ah’ll lose everything if no one listens to me.”

Was I too honest? Lalima spoke,

“Your Majesty. Who taught you to say that?”

“Uung? Myself.”

“Was it Xavier? It must be Xavier. Where is that punk?”

Lalima didn’t even listen to me and went away to find Xavier. The kitty asked me, who was lying down on the bed.

[Are you going to see the priest from earlier?]

“I have to.”

[I’ll go with you!]

The usual lazy kitty was active today as if he was interested in the priest.

After there was a long absence of people in the bedroom, I called the mice and asked for a favor in exchange for a loaf of bread.

“Watch the priest names Hael. A’ll give you bread.”

[Pay is cheap, squeak.]

[Cheap, squeak.]

[You haven’t watched us, squeak!]

The mice, who voiced out all kinds of complaint, disappeared reluctantly when I asked earnestly.

‘Scary mice…’

I took Gustav’s hand when he came to pick me up and went down the parlor. When I opened the door, I saw Hael waiting for me.

When Gustav released my hand, he lowered his head.

“Then, Your Majesty, I will be waiting outside.”

“No. Gustav ith busy, so just go work!”

“…I don’t know if Your Majesty is considerate or not.”

Gustav looked perplexed and closed the door. There were only three of us in the parlor, me, the kitty, and Hael. The kitty walked around smoothly and observed Hael back and forth like before.

[He is different from the priests until now. The energy feels incredibly good.]

‘Hmm.’

I got close to Hael, but he didn’t stand up. It was against the manners of treating the Emperor.

“Hi.”

On top of that, when no one’s around, he speaks informally…

I looked at Hael with narrowed eyes. I seemed to understand the reason I felt strange about him. Appearance, name, tone, his confident attitude, and finally, the kitty’s words.

“Are you the King?”

Let’s ask boldly with the assumption that I may not be-.

“That’s right.”

His answer came back without any worries. Rather, I was the one surprised.

‘Even if he is the King, shouldn’t he have to say no?’

It seemed that he didn’t even intend to hide it at all.

[Wow, no wonder. I was in a good mood because it was the King?]

The kitty jumped and sat confidently on the King’s lap and meowed. I tried to hide my flustered self and stared straight at the King.

“I heard you are a gwandpa, but why are you so young?”

“With a blessing from God, my body has transcended time.”

This made it clear that the teacher priest named Hael was actually the King Michael Abelardo. I quickly corrected my flustered expression and looked at the King with cold eyes.

“So, why are you here?”

Of course, my voice was also cold. It would be like that because it wasn’t just once or twice that he had worked to take me to the Holy Kingdom. He sent Montego to kidnap me when it wasn’t even that long after I was born, and he forced me to open my divine power by making contact with a holy relic. He even urged us to admit the name ‘Winter’ by deliberately creating a moment they needed.

Of course I couldn’t see him in a good light.

“What kind of twick is this?”

I stood with my arms folded and stared at the King. He looked at me in a comfortable position as if he was relieved of the tension of having to hide his identity.

“Because it was the right thing to do.”

“What about kidnapping me?”

“I decided that it would be better to bring in a baby with no knowledge back then.”

The King, who laughed and grinned, added a word with a shrug.

“It looks like you didn’t not know anything.”

“……!”

I thought my heart stopped for a moment. I was so surprised that my eyes widened. I told myself I have to pretend to be calm, but it was after I was already swayed.

“I don’t know what you’we saying.”

“You’re voice is trembling…”

“I-It’s not twembling!”

Not trembled my butt, my voice trembled without hesitation.

‘As expected, is he different because he’s the King?’

No one had ever notice my secret. Even if I walked early or talked early, everyone just thought I was a genius baby. The people around me, from the time of my birth, didn’t know about it.

“You are also God’s arrangement, so you wouldn’t just be born. I know when I see it. You’re not just a five-year-old.”

“……”

“I’m one that God loved too, and although not as much as you, I’ve received quite a lot of benefits.”

“What did you rethieve?”

“The memories of the successive Kings. It has been passed down from generation to generation.”

In fact, I had never thought about God properly, even though I was using and feeling divine power. At best, I would have resented him a little. Perhaps, that was why I felt sorry for the King, who worshipped God. I sighed and say down.

Only then, did I realize that there was nothing on the table. There weren’t even common textbooks.

‘You didn’t intend to teach me in the first place.’

If so, there must be a reason why he asked for a class today. First of all, I agreed with the King’s words. As long as the situation was like this, it was useless to find out.

“Thath right. As the King says, ah’m not an ordinary five-yea-old. But I won’t tell you how ah’m not normal.”

“I had no intention of asking for such a personal history.”

“…so, what is your purpose of coming hewe?”

As soon as I asked, the King laughed.

“If I ask you to go to Abelardo-.”

“I’m not going.”

“You’ll say you won’t go.”

My judgment was somehow distorted by his relaxed attitude of receiving the answer he expected.

“But I couldn’t wait for you to come, so I had no choice but to come.”

“What’s your pupose for coming?”

“The oracle that came down the day you were born. Do you know it?”

“Ung.”

I nodded. I couldn’t not know it. Wasn’t it because of that damn oracle that I was caught up in all sorts of accident?

[East end. Seed was planted to save to world.]

The eastern most point of the continent was the Ermano Empire, and because of the extreme weather on the day I was born, I became ‘God’s Seed.’ And on the day when Devlin attacked, I awakened the power of healing to save Daddy’s life, and became the owner of an inextricable oracle.

“The Holy Kingdom assumed you will save the world.”

“Why should I save a world thath ith fine?”

“Does it look fine?”

I nodded. There had never been a catastrophe that the oracle could bring down. The King also agreed with me.

“I guess so right now. But, in fact, there is back information that has not been disclosed in the oracle.”

“Back information…?”

It was the first time I heard the story despite being the head of an information guild. It was possible to see how confidential the contents of the oracle were treated int eh Holy Kingdom.

“East end. A seed has been planted to save the world.”

The King continued,

“At the moment of the end, when a red plague burns in ashes, the seed of the source will germinate.”

“…….”

“Finally, the blessing of the world will be with you.”

Disaster and an apocalypse. Unlike the previous oracles, they were words that were heavy. Too heavy fro me to bear.

“You mean the end is coming soon?”

“That’s right.”

“And ah have to stop that?”

“That’s right. You’re smart too.”

“……”

I frowned. I couldn’t understand. Just who the hell was God to ask me to bear this heavy duty? If the contents of the oracle was true, the author named God didn’t really care.

‘When I prayed for a rescue, he didn’t even listen to it.’

Even.

“Ah don’t bewieve in God.”

“God exists even if you don’t believe in God.”

“I don’t have the power to stop the end.”

As he shook his head firmly, the King changed the subject.

“Recently, droughts are occurring all over the continent.

“Ung.”

The drought, which began three years ago, was gradually spreading across the continent. A drought with an unknown cause. A drought where the ground dried up even when it rained.

“If that’s the harbinger of the end?”

“If?”

“The oracle of a red disaster is interpreted as a drought. A drought is just the beginning, and disasters will continue.”

“……”

“If it is this way, not only the Empire, but the world will collapse.”

The King’s face, who laughed for a moment, disappeared. He added with a sincere voice.

“The only thing that can save the world is you, the owner of the oracle.”

***

A dark night. After sleeping well, I suddenly woke up.

‘I can’t sleep because I’m upset.’

When I got up rubbing my eyes, I put a blanket of the kitty’s body and got out of bed.

“Shall I get some air?”

When I opened the balcony door slightly and went out, a warm wind blew. I sat on the chair I had on the balcony and rest my chin.

“Siiigh.”

All that came out was a sigh. Save the world, me, who was only five years old. God had no conscience.

‘Just see if we meet. I’ll throw you away.’

An Emperor with no schedule was tiring, but I was forced to take on the role as the world’s savior. A tremendous sense of self-destruction flowed in.

‘Is this what a group project is like?’

It was when I was screaming silently while tearing my hair off.

[Squeak. What are you doing?]

A thug mouse appeared.

“Oh, just…”

I didn’t do anything wrong, but when I was so frustrated, a little mouse put a note at me feet.

[Squeak. Told me to deliver, squeak.]

There was only one person who could use the mice as a messenger.

‘Aiden!’

I opened the note quickly.

[Duke Javier has contacted the guild.]

“Uung?”

…what is it now?
