Chapter 16: 16

“Have you figured out the reason of the Wyvern’s death? You said you’d search the black forest because there’s something on your mind.”

He said he had found a Wyvern’s body while he was moving with the other knights. There was no soldier or a natural death, as definite traces were found.

El who is worried about that part, asked a permission to allow him to examine the black forest in secret.

Liddon, who had no reason to refuse, agreed with him.

El Roytz is the greatest knight in the kingdom.

In addition, he was a member of the Roytz family who did not ride on the currents and only moved for the sake of the righteousness.

Liddon believed that there would be no political intentions in his movements.

“We’re running a search party through the black forest, and the results are still not out yet.”

“What part of it bothered you? If a stronger beast appeared than the Wyvern, wouldn’t it be better to ask for more knights? I think it was better to ask for additional troops to the royal court and join with them.

It is Liddon who asks, so of course the Queen will keep him in check. There might not be any additional troops that will come.

‘But it’s better than trying nothing.’

El, who was watching Liddon quietly thinking, said with his head hung down.

“Maybe, it’s not a beast. “

“What if it’s not a beast?”

“We found traces of fire on the body of Wyvern.”

“Beasts don’t use fire.”

“Yes, probably not just a normal beast, it’s an intelligent one. Conversant with words.”

“Do you mean it could be human?”

El nodded.

‘A being with intelligence that uses fire.’

Liddon’s gaze turned toward the blazing fireplace.

A mediocre fire subtly caught his eye.

“Your Highness! Commander!”

Then a knight roared inside.

“We’re in big trouble! You have to leave right now!”

“What’s the matter?”

When Liddon, whose concentration was shattered in an instant, asked with a frown on his face, the knight felt as if he didn’t know what to explain.

“That’s… …the Wyverns flew into the mansion.”

“What?”

Liddon stood up in suprise.

There were many unarmed civilians in the mansion. If the Wyverns had come in, there would have been considerable casualties.

However, the knight’s response to such an emergency was lukewarm.

The knight scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

“The Wyverns flew in with the injured knights and Miss Oberon. She’s still sitting in the garden right now. It’s still dark, but it’s the Wyverns, so what else should we do about it…”

‘ The Wyvern’s were carrying people?’

The Wyverns were fierce and combative. It was ridiculous to say that such a beast was carrying a person.

Liddon and El’s eyes met in the air.

Chapter 3. Change

I returned to my home with the injured knights from the tail attack of Wyvern and the passed out Lionel on the back of Wyvern.

The knights who rode the Wyverns had blank faces as if they didn’t know what had happened to them even after they arrived at the mansion.

I came back to the mansion on purpose in order to show that I have complete control over the Wyverns.

‘Then the subjugation squad that came to Erell to subdue the Wyverns will go back.’

Due to its geographical nature, Erell was a city with very few exchanges with the capital.

When the subjugation team returned, there was no more trouble with these annoying Catherine fishes unless I returned to the capital.

‘But Wyvern is very useful in means of transportation.’

I never thought about it because they kill people.

But once I got on it’s big back, it was possible to move quite stably. Not to mention the fast speed.

The transportation of this era was terribly poor.

Basically, it was a horse and a wagon, and there was a railway that was just build, but the train was very slow.

‘In a world like this, the Wyverns would be airplanes. ‘

Airplane.

The memory that I had forgotten naturally came back to me.

The vibrations that began with an explosion, the uncontrollably shaking gases, the people’s screams, and the repeated warning sounds.

It was an airplane accident.

The last memory of my last life.

Before I became Yvesria, I worked for a trading company.

I was in charge of the South American market because I majored in Spanish, and frequently travel long distances because of the local business trips there.

I didn’t think the plane that I’d normally boarded would crash.

‘I heard that the chances of a plane crash are lower than the chances of a lightning striking on the road. Why am I caught in that unlucky chance?’

If I were to be the protagonist with such rare chances, it would have been much better at winning in the lottery.

But my luck worked in a bad way and it dragged me into a tragic accident.

When I think about it, Yvesria’s body was the proof that opened my eyes that I was unlucky.

‘Did I fall here because <Lady Catherine> was the book I were reading before the plane crash?’

I should have read a fairy tale if I had known I would fall into the last book I read.

‘There are many such books that ends up with everyone living happily ever after.’

If I had fallen into such a book, I could able to live in peace in that country that drives bad luck.

I was patting the Wyvern and lamenting my bad luck when a voice that was not very happy called me.

“Miss Oberon, can I talk to you for a second?”

It was Liddon, the most tiresome Catherine’s fish.

There was only one thing we could talk about in this situation.

‘Maybe it’s about the Wyvern.’

As expected, he couldn’t take his eyes off at the Wyvern, who was sitting here.

They was a house-sized beast, but they look like a local cat.

“I’ve never seen the Wyverns behave before.”

Liddon, who was muttering to himself, asked me, wary of the Wyverns.

“According to the report from the Frost Knights, you tamed the Wyverns. Really?”

They were Lionel, who had just come to his senses, and the knights who were receiving first aid.

He must have heard a rough idea from them before he came to me.

“Is this a question that needs confirmation? You already saw it.”

I shrugged and stroked the Wyverns.

Liddon drew the sword from his waist in surprise, but his vigilance was overshadowed by the Wyverns.

The Wyverns with their big eyes wide open and Liddon, who made an eye contact, put down his sword with a dismay look.

“Wyverns are beasts that are impossible to tame. The Royal Knights tried to tame the hard-won Wyverns which they captured, but they all failed. And a noble young lady did it? How?”

The truth was simple.

‘I met and made a deal with the Chief Wyvern, who could speak to humans.’

But to tell Liddon the truth, I have to explain how I was able to meet the Chief of Wyvern.

In the explanation, Harry’s presence could not be omitted. The beginning of all the stories would have been Harry.

But I can’t tell anyone about Harry.

In the end, there is a gap in the truth.

‘And Liddon Zerette is not the one who will believe in the truth with a void.’

Then there was only one thing I could do, to be brazen.

I was more confident than anyone else in my casual and brazen assertion.

Most of the people who worked in trading, like me, probably did.

The basics of trading were negotiations. How can I easily lead the negotiations? It required analytical power to grasp the needs of others and a brilliant speech that well wrapped your opinions.

The acting power that concealed my weaknesses as much as possible, and the confidence that did not get intimidated under any circumstances, were also important.

‘In short, confidence in your words.’

And I’ve experienced this world in books.

‘I know exactly what the other person needs.’

This was a fight that was absolutely in my favor.

“That’s a secret.”

“What?”

“It’s confidential because this is my property.”

“Wyvern is your property?”

Liddon glanced at me with a crooked look, frowning at once.

“That’s profanity and all the beasts are managed by the royal family. “

“I know. The Wyverns can’t be my property. It belongs to the royal family.”

As Liddon said, the Wyverns and the other beasts were all managed by the royal family.

To be precise, the royal family was monopolizing all the resources it gained by killing beasts.

The bones and claws of the Wyvern, which can be used to make strong weapons, and the blood of the trolls needed to make recovery drugs were particularly tightly managed.

A heavy punishment will be imposed to those who violate the law and secretly smuggled money.

“But what about my ability to tame the Wyverns?”

“The ability to tame Wyverns?”

“Yes. Ability. Do you really think my talent belongs to the royal family, Your Highness?”

Liddon had a blank look, as if Liddon had been struck on the head by my words.

I grinned and shrugged.

“Some people paint well, some people handle swords. All of those talents are property of ‘someone.'”

“That means…?”

“The ability to tame Wyverns means my property. Since no one in the kingdom has this ability, is it worthwhile and precious? Why should I share this precious property with others?”

“Who told you to share that ability? I have an obligation to figure out everything that is related to this Wyvern subjugation. One of them is how you tamed the Wyverns.”

“Well, I fully understand your position, but Your Highness also needed to understand my position.”

I let out an exaggerated sigh and complained of injustice.

“The way I tame the Wyverns is my own secret. But as soon as I tell you this, it’s not only my secret. Then the value of my property drops dramatically.”

“Are you telling me to pay if I want to hear it?”

“You’re joking, aren’t you? Why will I sell my precious talent for money?”

The wealth of the Oberon family was as famous as the honor and history they had built.

Isn’t the shrewd Queen even engaged Yvesria and Cassian to get the money?

Not only Liddon but all the people of the kingdom were well aware of Oberon’s wealth.

“I just don’t want to tell you my secret, Your Highness.”

Liddon kept his mouth shut to the fairly corteous conclusion.

His eyes that were looking at me were full of vigilance like when he looked at the Wyverns.

“……what else are you up to this time?”

“What do you mean I’m up to?”

“Isn’t it’s obvious that Yvesria Oberon’s going to be in charge? It would be harmful to good people.”

Liddon pointed his sword at me with a sneer.

The sharp blades of his sword gave a menancing glint, and the frost knights, who were watching us from a little distance, took their breath in surprise.

They seemed to be thinking about whether they should draw a sword to protect me or watch the situation because the other person was the prince.

[Shall I supress him?]

Harry shook his tail and asked on behalf of the hesitant knights.

There was a low, threatening growl in his mouth towards Liddon.

“I don’t know what tricks you used to tame the Wyvern, but I won’t let you do anything that will threaten people’s safety. It will be better not to think anything useless.”

Liddon held the sword tighter, not succumbing to Harry’s threat.

“Tell me, what are you planning to do?”

“Iyaaah!”

Liddon’s cool voice was buried in the sound of a clumsy, bizarre voice.

It was from Lionel’s mouth, who was running from the distance with his sword in his hand.

Liddon opened his mouth slowly, looking at Lionel who was obviously doing his best.

Who’s that clumsy knight? It was obvious what he was thinking.

Lionel, who had reached Liddon, swung his sword with a large, unnecessarily large movement.

When Liddon turned lightly to avoid the attack, Lionel, who could not control his running speed , rolled in the floor loudly.

“Lionel!”

The frost knights who were watching the scene were shocked and called Lionel.

Of course, it wasn’t because they was worried that he rolled in the floor.

“Wi, wi, wi, wielding a sword at the Prince! You lunatic!”

Attacking the royal family was an act punishable by treason.

If the knight who wield his sword was a member of the Oberon family’s Frost Knights, it was an issue that could be dismissed as a rebellion of the Oberon family, beyond just an individual’s problem.

But who dared to accuse the Oberons as traitors? In a sudden situation, both the Frost Knights and the Royal Knights drew all their swords in a whirl. Whether he knew the surroundings around him or not, Lionel, who had rolled in the floor, stood up in his dusty appearance.

“Miss is not a bad person!”

Lionel raised his sword with a tearful face and said, wary of Liddon.

His voice was shaking unsightly.

His arms with a sword and his two legs trembled while he stood in front.

But at the same time, Lionel stood firmly in front of me, not far away.

It was a pretty shabby look, but it seemed to me that his trembling back was somehow reliable.

And the idea crumbled in less than a minute.

“Even if you go for a walk in the morning secretly, or if you don’t do what you’re told to do, or if we don’t do what you told us, you’ll cut off all of our fingers, or you’ll do something suspicious and vicious! Miss was actually a really good person!”

Lionel’s cry rang in the sky.

As what he said about me, I was suspicious and vicious from what I heard. Harry seemed to have a similar idea.

[……Isn’t he doing that on purpose?]
