May My Sword be Clothed with Power II (1)

Scenes that had been overlooked without thinking were revived with meaning.

I liked his touch. I didn’t want him to live hard. I felt lonely when he wasn’t around.

Yes.

I was lonely.

“Viscount, I think I like Caesar.”

I mumbled like I was talking to myself. My mind was still numb.

“You have come to a great realization…”

Hamilton answered in a grumpy tone, as if he was chewing grass.

“Uwa… What should I do?”

“I mean, even if you ask me—”

“Uwaaaa… Wouldn’t this be ethically problematic? A teacher trying to do something with her student, isn’t it strange?”

“What on earth are you trying to do that you even brought up ethical issues?”

“Uwa… Uwaaah… Caesar and I… Aaaahhh…” Hamilton said softly, but it didn’t come to my ears.

For me, the fact that I liked Caesar was more of a shock than that Caesar liked me.

Once I realized it, my mind turned chaotic.

All the unscrupulous things I wanted to do with Caesar, I began to make a list in my head as though  I had been waiting. It was endless.

“Did I ever look at my student like that?”

I covered my face with both hands and shouted.

“Well, didn’t His Highness look at his teacher like that too? It should be alright.”

Hamilton answered in a hesitant voice, so it was not comforting. Moreover, from Hamilton’s voice, I could tell he was slowly losing interest in the topic.

“Anyway, that’s good. Doesn’t it mean that both sides are of the same mind?”

“I don’t know. I’ve never liked anyone.”

“What a pity. I feel sympathy for all the men who have a crush on you.”

“That’s enough of a joke, so what am I supposed to do now? What should I do? What’s my future?”

“I’m not a fortune teller.”

Having said that, Hamilton quickly added.

“Isn’t it the time to express that feeling first?”

“Express it? Do you want me to knock Caesar out of bed?”

“Oh, no, not that. How can you think that far?”

Being caught up in me spouting random words in confusion, Hamilton replied in a panicked voice.

“I am asking you to answer his confession.”

Oh, I see.

Caesar said he liked me, but I hadn’t been able to explain my feelings to him clearly yet.

Forget it, I remembered how lonely Caesar’s voice sounded.

I must answer him.

***

“I’ll take you to your room.”

Hamilton stood up and said, but I refused lightly.

“No need, I’m fine.”

He was writing a letter to my father, even preparing to write a will for me. He was pitiful enough, so I couldn’t get in the way of things.

“But your eyesight hasn’t fully recovered yet.”

“Well, I can see shapes roughly.”

The only obstacles while walking down the hallway were sculptures and large furniture. I could differentiate them by form. I could avoid them if I walked slowly.

“But…”

“Caesar was hugging me and wouldn’t put me down. I want to walk a little.”

“Then shall we call the attendants?”

“Mm, no need for that too. I can think of some people who will rush and make a fuss.”

I laughed bitterly as I recalled Agoth and the crew. Fortunately, Leonard had gone back to school.

“I’ll go back now. It was a useful consultation, Viscount.”

“Thank you. If Duke Peresca becomes very angry with me later, please remember today and be on my side.”

“Don’t worry.”

How did he manage to serve as Caesar’s aid with such timidity?

‘Well, first of all… Let’s go back to the bedroom.’

Although I had proudly said I would go alone, it was still dangerous.

Don’t make trouble and return quietly today.

I began to walk slowly and carefully down the long hallway where my footsteps sounded. As I focused all my attention on walking, my thoughts wandered.

‘I can like people too.’

When I got a little used to walking, the first thing I thought of was that.

Of course, I liked Leonard, and I liked Agoth. I liked my current parents, and I liked Hamilton.

But it was different from romantic feelings.

Obviously, I liked Caesar with a completely different feeling than I had for other people.

Before going down the stairs, I took a short deep breath and put my hand on the railing, and I burst into laughter at the sudden thought.

“Seriously, Caesar only has a good-looking face, but he has a dirty personality, he is stubborn, and he looks like a goblin, how could I…”

“What’s wrong with my personality?”

“Ahh!”

I screamed in embarrassment at the low, harsh voice of Caesar coming from my left ear.

I couldn’t even dream that someone was right beside me because I couldn’t see in front of me.

“Kagh!”

I was so startled that my foot slipped down the stairs.

‘I’m doomed!’

My hand even slipped from the railing I had bee holding. I was about to roll down the stairs.

“Helena!”

Caesar grabbed my waist. It was such a relief… for only about ten seconds.

“Ugh!”

“Huh?”

The problem was that I, who was blind, was struggling to catch something and snatched Caesar by the collar.

Ahaha.

It’s over.

“Uwaaakh!”

“Kyaaaa!”

Eventually, Caesar and I rolled down the stairs.

Fortunately, the stairs were carpeted and there were not many stairs.

Above all, Caesar desperately hugged me to protect me somehow. Even if any of us had gotten hurt, it would be Caesar, not me.

Crash! We were only able to stop after being pushed down to the end of the stairs with a loud noise.

“Augh, my back…”

“Augh, I think I’m getting motion sickness…!”

We shuddered at the same time with a groan.

“Are you okay, Helena?”

“I’m fine, what about Caesar?”

“Ah, me too.”

“Really? You bumped a lot while hugging me, didn’t you? Are you sure you’re not hurt?”

I reached out toward the form of Caesar in front of me. And starting with Caesar’s head, I touched his body here and there.

My eyes couldn’t see, so I had no choice but to grope around with my hands.

Well, it doesn’t look like it’s broken anywhere.

“What about your arms and legs? Oh, right, how’s your face? Is it okay?”

After checking all over his body, I finally grabbed Caesar’s face and patted him lightly.

Mm, by the way… I noticed something strange when I touched his face with my hands.

A tall nose, eyebrows, eyelids, soft cheeks and moist lips… Wow, how can a human feel handsome just by touch?

“… How long are you going to touch me?”

“Hiiiy!”

As Caesar spoke, his hot breath cling to the tip of my finger that was stroking Caesar’s lips.

When I realized it, blood rushed to my face.

Uwah, what do I do now? 

“I’m sorry! Just to make sure there aren’t any injuries…!”

“I’m alright. What about your arm?”

“Arm? What about my arm?”

Oh right.

My arm is broken, right.

“Ugh, my arm…!”

Oh, why did you say that? After realizing it, it hurts to tears.

I clasped my broken arm and trembled. The pain seemed to have been revived from the impact of rolling down the stairs.

“Does it hurt?”

“Ugh… It hurts a little.”

“Ha, you’re so…”

Caesar let out a long sigh.

Yes, it’s my fault for falling off the stairs, but since that’s the case, aren’t you at fault too for suddenly talking to me with your breath in my ear?

‘Oh, I remembered again. That voice.’

Moreover, whenever I heard Caesar’s soft voice now, I got nervous and bothered.

“Oh, Your Highness! Princess! What’s going on?!”

At the loud noise, nearby servants appeared one by one. Tch.

It was embarrassing to say that I rolled down the stairs. I had to pretend that nothing happened… but despite my determination.

“Heya.”

“…?!”

Caesar gave me a hug.

This guy, I think you’re having fun holding me in your arms these days? Am I mistaken?

“Hey. Go and get a doctor.”

“Pardon? Ah, yes…!”

Caesar’s voice giving the command was cold. As a result, the servants hurriedly scattered as if they were running away.

When the attendants disappeared, Caesar began to walk towards the bedroom holding me.

“You don’t need to call a doctor… Your Highness.”

I spoke informally, but I quickly used honorifics because I thought there might be someone else nearby. Maybe it was funny, Caesar giggled.

It was a laugh so innocent that I couldn’t even relate it to the cold voice when he gave orders to the servants a while ago.

Oh, what a double-faced man.

“You walked around alone without Agoth, because you wanted to roll down the staris?”

What, did you know that I let you leave on purpose?

“Helena is not allowed to walk around until she is diagnosed with complete recovery of her eyesight.”

“What does that mean? Then how do I get around?”

“Use the means of transportation.”

Caesar said as he hugged me.

Is that means of transportation referring to you? Are you going to carry me around like this?

“… You’re crazy!”

“I agree with you.”

Caesar responded with a smile to my displeasure.

“Looking at that, we are very similar. We’re both a beauty, good at swordsmanship, and have a bad personality. Don’t you think so, Master?”

You’re the only one who has a bad personality.

You’re the worst.

You’re the worst human being I’ve ever known, you sly fool!

I held back the scream I wanted to let out and buried my head in Caesar’s shoulder.

***

“I asked Agoth to come up with dinner.”

“You don’t have to.”

“Even if it doesn’t hurt now, you could get bruised here and there tomorrow. So take a good rest today.”

After the doctor went, Caesar said to me. The doctor said it was fine, but he was worried a lot.

“Isn’t it better to worry about yourself rather than me? You rolled while hugging me. You would have been hurt more.”

“It’s okay because I can still see.”

“What does that matter?”

“Ahaha.”

“… Come to think of it, Caesar. I think it would be better to say it clearly.”

“Yes?”

“I like you.”

“… Ngg?”

To my declaration, which suddenly popped out as if I was only saying Close the door when you go out, a foolish response immediately returned.

I wanted to see what kind of expression Caesar was making now. I thought I could use it as a joke for the rest of my life.

I said it again with a shrug.

“I like you.”

Ha, what do you think?

I want you to experience the same embarrassment that I felt.

“Uh, what?”

Caesar asked me again. What? Are you that flustered?

“I mean, I like you.”

“I don’t quite understand what you’re saying. One more time.”

“… You’re fooling me, aren’t you?”

By the third time, no matter how dull a person was, they would know. This guy was trying to get me to keep saying I like him.

“Puhaha!”

Caesar burst out laughing as if he thought he had been caught. How annoying.

I was embarrassed to be played by him, so my face grew hot.

“I’m sorry, but I like it.”

Said Caesar. His voice was full of laughter.

“It doesn’t mean I like you as a friend or I cherish you as a student, right? It’s the I like you the same way I like you, right?”

“Ugh, don’t ask questions when you know.”

It was meant to embarrass Caesar, but in the end I was the one panicked.

There was nothing wrong with it. Caesar had enough time to reassure himself after he had confessed his feelings to me, but I was just a beginner who just realized my feelings.

“Haha, but I didn’t expect to hear that so soon.”

“What is that? You thought you’d hear it someday?”

“Of course. I’m not going to give you up to the others, am I?”

Ummm, I felt like I could see Caesar’s expression full of monopoly in front of my eyes.

“How shameless.”

But I didn’t refute.

Yes. If I ever fell in love with someone, I think it would have been this guy after all.

I needed someone who’s good enough to attract my attention.

“So tell me one more time, Helena.”

Caesar whispered in my ear. I couldn’t say no to such a wish.

No, actually, I wanted to say more.

Because this strange feeling, which was strange, a little scary, and tickling, was not boring at all.

“I like you.”

“Yes, one more time.”

“Caesar, I like you.”

“One last time.”

Caesar longed for affection, like a child whining candy.

His voice was full of joy, but at the same time he trembled a little.

As if to say that all the years had passed to hear this confession of mine.

I reached out and gently wrapped my arms around Caesar’s neck.

And whispered in his ear.

“I like you best, Caesar.”

The more I said it, the clearer it became. My feeling was overflowing and I couldn’t hide it.

Erez, I’m sorry. I’ve come to… like your son’s son’s son’s son’s son.

Anyway, the Gray people wouldn’t leave me alone.

Even so.,

“Well, it’s worth living.”

It was my second life, I didn’t know why I was born, but I didn’t think it was as boring as I thought.

Caesar, I am so glad to have met you.

“That’s the most touching thing to hear.”

With those last words, Caesar kissed me as if swallowing all my ‘likes’.

I like you, I like you, I like you.

His countless unspoken words that were not made into words flowed into me through a long and intense kiss.
