The Tyrant Won’t Let Me Go Chapter 45

Translated by Niks



What’s this?

Why do I feel so nervous?

Before I knew it, my hand had formed a fist.

Ciel couldn’t figure out why her heart was pounding all of a sudden.

“That child’s father is Jack Marr, the traitor.”

The moment I heard the name, my eyes went blank.

“What…”

Jack Marr.

He was responsible for the coup d’état led by Cedric’s mother, the former Empress Henrietta.

The eldest son of a noble family who has been deprived of his title for committing corruption in public office for a considerable period of time.

He had a grudge against the imperial family for taking away the honor and title that should have originally belonged to him.

The Empress, who was preparing for rebellion, found him who lived in hiding and brought him in.

Jack Marr brutally murdered Emperor’s ministers and escort knights who tried to protect the Imperial Family due to the entanglement of the Empress’ outsiders who wanted to restore their status as aristocrats.

That wasn’t enough for Jack Marr, so he wanted to kill more people to complete his rebellion.

His assassination included Cedric, who was still young.

At that moment, my vision turned white.

I barely held on to the wall as my body tilted and tried to stay still.

“Ciel!”

Cedric rushed in and grabbed my arm.

The moment I saw his startled eyes, I was at a loss for words.

I should have answered ‘I’m fine’, but I just couldn’t.

‘Jack Marr…’

I couldn’t say anything.

The man who might have been my biological father was the one who tried to kill the young Cedric.

The person who may have instilled terrible traumatic memories to the person who has been by my side for the past eight years.

‘Why does it have to be…’

I feel out of breath.

“Rukia! Can you hear me? Commander Minerva is nowㅡ”

Cedric’s hoarse voice, calling out urgently.

Everything looked blurry, but only the woman over the window was clearly visible.

‘Did she want me to feel this way?’

Words that I couldn’t bring up lingered in my head.

Just then, a blue spark flew from my grasping hand.

And I could feel the bloody smell around.

“Ciel, your mnaa…”

Seeing the red eyes looking at me worriedly, I had no choice but to bow my head and surrender.



“Ciel Minerva’s mother visited Commander Minerva.”

After pouring alcohol into a glass at the butler’s words, he stopped moving.

“What? She went to Minerva?” The man frowned and asked.

“What are you talking about? Is that true?

“Yeah. It wasn’t enough for the woman to receive drugs and money from us, so she went to Minerva and tried to get more money. She said that she’d spread the information we gave her if Minerva didn’t give her money.”

“What the hell…”

Brian Tekarke, unable to contain his anger, threw the bottle to the floor.

The sound of Tekarke’s roar resonated in the room along with the sound of the glass breaking into pieces.

“So, I gave her all the money and drugs, but that’s how she paid me back?”

“That’s a disgrace, but there’s a more serious problem. She was caught in the Imperial Palace prison for making a fuss right in front of Minerva. If we do something wrong, our tail could be trampled on.”

“I’ll turn it in.” Tekarke muttered, grinding his teeth.

“I should have realized that when she said that brazenly, why the hell was she doing things like this… Shamelessly asking for drugs?”

“Anyway, I think it’s better to move to another area as soon as possible. How about moving towards the Ackeletta border?”

Tekarke closed his eyes over the anxious butler.

‘I took measures against her just in case, but it was a good choice.’

Ciel Minerva, why do things become so twisted when only that damn thing gets involved?

Being unfortunate and shameless is extremely lucky.

With that thought, Tekarke’s tantrums rose again, and he growled low, rubbing his crumpled temple.

“That mother and her daughter… both would die at once.”



Time passed and it was night.

In the end, they had no choice but to leave the interrogation room first over Rukia.

Startled, Rukia helped Ciel in shock out of the interrogation room, and tried to tell Cedric that she was fine.

I think I just kept repeating those words, thinking I had to.

In reality, it wasn’t, and Cedric seemed to have known that.

“…Ugh.”

A tingling sensation continued to pass through my fingertips.

My mental state was unstable, so even though I didn’t hold the sword, sparks kept coming out of my fingers.

I told Cedric that I’d treat my wounds by myself, but Cedric never let me do that.

I was not in a state where I could go to the infirmary and talk to the doctor, so I personally brought a valuable medicine to disinfect the wound and put on a bandage.

And he gently explained that my mana seems to be unstable now, so it’ll be hard, but I think I’ll have to be with him for at least a few dozen minutes today.

In the end, I nodded at his very cautious and serious attitude.

However, I thought I would have to be alone for a while, so I told him that I’ll meet him in three hours.

‘I have to calm myself down and leave. If I make a mistake and hurt Cedric…’

I imagined that momentarily…

With blue sparks Cedric grabs my blood-stained arm and turns pale.

It was as if such a scene came to mind.

“Argh!”

I suddenly screamed at the spark that had sprung stronger than before.

I clasped my hand, feeling the pain, and repeated it to myself.

It shouldn’t be like this.

This can’t happen.

At this rate, really…

“Hey, Ciel, come to your senses.”

Caliberne’s voice broke the silence in the room.

Looking sideways, I saw a familiar light emanating from the sword that had been placed on the wall.

“Listen to me, don’t be impatient.”

“…Yes.”

“Take a deep breath. And breathe slowly.”

As Caliberne said, I took a deep breath and controlled my breathing.

Then my heart beat slowed down a little, and my blurred vision seemed to have returned.

The intermittent sparks from my fingertips also subsided.

“And what that damn woman said, you know she’s most likely lying.”

“I know…”

Rukia finished the rest of the interrogation and stopped by again to inform the results of the interrogation.

According to him, one day, people who brought my father’s portrait visited my biological mother.

And that they threatened her with a knife, and urged her to answer honestly, asking, “Have you ever spent the night with him?”

She answered ‘yes‘, and the suspicious group informed her that the person was Jack Marr, the famous traitor.

Jack Marr used an alias in front of her and disappeared without a trace after spending just one night with her, so she didn’t know who he was until that day.

Later, she received a fortune from the suspicious group to testify in public that I was Jack Marr’s daughter.

Rukia further asked her how she remembered my father’s appearance, although she actually did match Jack Marr’s appearance during his lifetime.

“Honestly, even if the woman said that your father looked like Jack Marr, you wouldn’t know what those bastards might have done to the portrait.”

That’s true.

They seemed capable people to provide drugs that aren’t easy to find. Given that they sure are quite organized.

There’s a good chance that someone who could use magic was also part of the group.

“They may make her think she has seen Jack Marr when she hasn’t actually seen him.”

“That’s right. But…”

“Why? If just in case it’s real?”

“Probably… And I didn’t do anything wrong, but Cedric…”

Every time he sees me, the bad memories of the coup might come back to him.

“Do you think that guy who’s crazy about you would care about that? If only he were one who could be swayed by that…”

Caliberne, who had been talking in a furious tone, suddenly stopped talking.

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

“Hey…” Caliberne said meaningfully.

“Can you hear the Emperor’s footsteps outside?”
