Chapter 89 – 089 – Hyde Clashes With the King’s Children # 3

089 – Hyde clashes with the king’s children # 3

Saegeun, Saegeun-.

Psyche suffered a lot and finally fell asleep at midnight.

It seems that the painkiller made by mixing the poppy that Milione had obtained was effective.

Although it is effective, only small amounts are used because it can be harmful to the human body.

Of course, since Psyche is a strong woman, she will not be addictive or have any side effects.

I carefully left her room while looking at Psyche who was sleeping.

“I can’t believe people do such bad things.”

Psyche was hurt, but-.

What was most upsetting was that Atalanta had hurt Psyche’s pure heart.

“Do you know anything about Atalanta?”

I asked Milione, who was standing in the hallway.

Milione shrugged her shoulders.

“Like what I said earlier? She is a woman who could not get married until she was 25. As you can see from her appearance, she is a member of the barbarian Domarian clan? And he is third in line to the throne. I also have a bad personality.”

That much was something I had already figured out.

What I wanted to know was how to flatten Atalanta’s big nose.

The sin of daring to hurt my love Psyche.

There had to be retribution for this.

Being angry about injustice was not about personal revenge, but about justice.

The top priority would be to punish Atalanta so that others don’t suffer like me, Hyde, and Psyche.

And I knew Atalanta’s weakness.

“Atalanta’s confidence comes from Pope Gregory.”

3rd in line of succession to the throne.

It was clear that it made Atalanta’s actions even more violent.

So what about Pope Gregory’s other brothers and sisters?

Ranked 2nd and 1st.

I thought it would be a good idea to meet them.

“Hyde, how is your wife?”

Time past midnight.

Alter Archibald appeared holding a strange incense burner.

“It’s an incense burner that burns herbs that are good for relieving pain. I also often used it when I was injured or had internal injuries. If you take this, you will feel a little better.”

“Thank you.”

Zek-.

I received the incense burner and hung it up in Psyche’s room.

It had a scent that made people feel comfortable, like lavender, and Psyche also seemed to be in a deep sleep without tossing and turning or falling asleep.

While I was looking at that scene, Alter said.

“The Pope ordered Prince Atalanta to be placed under probation for one week due to this incident.”

“A week of probation?”

Is it Atalanta’s punishment to not be able to leave the room for a week?

Is that enough?

It was like hitting me with a soft bat.

Soon, Alter added.

“Because it happened in sparring, the punishment seemed bound to be somewhat mild. Instead, His Holiness the Pope decided to send herbs and healers for Madame Agarpe.”

It seemed that the best healers in the church would come to visit Psyche as soon as tomorrow dawned.

Pope Gregory.

He even pretends to be complacent about something that happened with his connivance.

I’ve known you since I was leading a strange double life.

In my opinion, Pope Gregory was a psychopath and sociopath.

It’s natural that he thinks of himself as a ‘part’ of society, not as a human being.

Since that guy is the king and sits on the constellation and reigns, isn’t this United Kingdom overrun with heretics, swindlers, and murderers?

The good news was that it was confirmed that Gregory would step down from his position as king in five years.

“Alter. Do you know anything about Pope Gregory’s adopted sons? Because I’ve already seen Atalanta. From what I heard, there are two more.”

“Are you asking about Prince Rehoboam and Lord Cushan?”

Grand Duke Rehoboam, first in line to the throne.

2nd place successor Kusan.

It is said that they rarely appear in the capital Barakhan.

They travel throughout this kingdom, carrying out tasks according to the orders of the Pope.

He seemed like a difficult person to meet.

In fact, even I, who worked as Rust, had no contact with the Pope’s children during these five years.

“Lord Kusan is here in Barakhan. Want to meet him? If you meet him now, it will be a political act in many ways. It may feel like you are supporting him.”

Alter advised me.

From what I heard, the three adopted sons of the Pope were active and fighting in various places to take over the throne.

This may be why Atalanta slapped Psyche on the back.

“As someone who dreams of becoming a king, would you rather become a cowardly winner than experience a humiliating defeat in front of the public? Alter, which of the king’s three children do you think you can relate to the most? Who is best suited to be the next king?”

“I am a knight of the Order. I don’t get involved in politics. But the person I think I can talk to the most is Lord Kusan.”

The next morning.

Psyche moved more quickly than expected.

“Hyde, it looks like your nursing me all night worked!”

Psyche twirling her arms

I felt good because he looked very healthy.

“Psyche! It seems like my prayers really worked!”

I stayed up all night praying for the sick Psyche.

Perhaps my sincere prayers worked, but Psyche’s face was bright, and she seemed to have no problem moving.

“Hyde. My body is really fine─tsk─!”

As she moved her body around, she made a groaning sound.
No matter how healthy Psyche was, it seemed impossible for her internal injuries to heal in just one day.

However, Psyche seemed to know that I was worried and immediately brightened her face.

“I think it will get better in just one more day. If you use the Agarpe family’s arcane breathing method to circulate the aura within your body, you will be able to wake up in no time.”

Is it the auric cycle of arcane breathing?

It was a time when it became clear that this was a strange world, not the 21st century.

Psyche sat cross-legged on the bed and said, “Huh.” He began to exhale and concentrate.

I didn’t think I should interfere.

I left the room and walked quietly through the church hall of Barakhan with Alter and the Milione siblings.

The place I arrived was a garden full of plants.

Alter Archibald said to the man who was watering the flowers there with a watering can.

“Lord Cusan. “This is my friend Hyde, whom I told you about yesterday.”

Lord Kusan, second in line to the throne.

He was a man about a hand taller than me.

Height of almost 2 meters.

He was wearing a long white robe, and his dark hair was tied up like a hairpin, making him look like some kind of Taoist or monster.
His eyes were a brilliantly shining gold.
Zek-.

He held out his hand to me.

“Isn’t he the most famous priest in the kingdom? Lord Hyde. Nice to meet you. And I would like to express my deepest regret for the tragedy that has befallen your family.”

He was a person with quite warm hands.

Zek-.

He let go of his hand and immediately looked at Milione.

“Alter, is this lady the younger sister you were talking about? She is much more beautiful and noble than I heard through rumors. Nice to meet you It is an honor to meet one of the three flowers of the kingdom.”

Zek-.

So saying, Cusan took Milione’s hand and tried to kiss her on the back of it.
Of course, Milione trembled and yanked her hand away, saying, “Ugh, what!”
Cusan laughs haha ​​while looking at Milione like that.

“He is more shy than I heard. I think there is no doubt that she has a kind heart as well as her beautiful appearance. “I guess I can’t believe it’s just a rumor.”

I was surprised.

It was because a man appeared flirting with Milione.

Milione is a woman who is said to be comparable to Psyche, at least in terms of her appearance.

There may be people who wonder what it’s like to be flirted with by her men, but they wouldn’t be able to say such things if they found out about the rumors going around about her Milione.
She’s such a spoiled daughter that she even gave up on the Medici arch bolt.

“Rumor? Are you saying that I was humiliated by Rust and even abandoned by her father?”

Yes.

Whatever the truth, Milione was said to have been humiliated.

In this world where her chastity was the highest virtue, Milione was a great flaw because no one was pure.
That’s why her marriage talks stopped.

However, Kusan seemed to be good.

“I can’t believe such a tragedy happened to such a kind and beautiful lady. “There is no other major loss in the history of the United Kingdom, or indeed of humanity.”

Milione is kind and beautiful.

I was speechless.

Do you know how many men she’s crushed to death because she doesn’t like this guy?
When I think about that incident, my lower abdomen twitches too!

Immediately, “Hmm,” Alter cleared his throat.

“It is because of Lord Atalanta’s actions that we have come to see Lord Cusan today.”

Yes.

The reason I came to Cusan was to give Atalanta a big treat.

Kusan was also a person who was aiming for the king, so he thought quickly.

“Don’t worry. I will speak to the Pope and make Atalanta’s punishment more severe. His Holiness the Pope is particularly fond of Atalanta, but it is possible if I use my strength. Instead,─.”

Zek-.

Kusan’s golden eyes looked at me.

“There is a council of priests to be held in the future. Can you support my opinion on the spot? Priest Hyde. “If I can receive your support, my standing can rise a little.”

Does this mean that instead of keeping Atalanta in check, they support him as the next king?

In response to this opinion, Alter readily said, “That’s a good story,” But I couldn’t easily reply.

A man who shows favor towards the rare madwoman Milione.

Moreover, he was a person with discerning eyes who evaluated Milione as being more kind than anyone else.
Is it okay to make a man with such crooked eyes a king?
