Chapter 121: The Emperor’s Daughter Chapter . 121
“I’m exhausted . How much longer must I live like this? Is it really alright for me to continue living this way? I am a monster and I deserve to die . Just being alive… is a punishment for me, your Majesty . ”
His beautiful golden forest-colored eyes descended . A drop of clear tears on his eyelashes flowed down on Assisi’s cheeks . His crying voice was pitiful enough even to my ears . I felt incredibly sorry to be listening to his terrible anguish . A guilty conscience sank in my heart .
“With such a tainted soul… even remaining alive is a sin for me, yet my hideous instinct screams to live on… just how miserable and disgusting that is . ”
Finally, Assisi’s body collapsed . The marble floor reflected his appearance clearly . He suppressed his cry as he touched the floor . His chin trembled . I wanted to go to him and help him rise right away, but my presence in this room was of great secrecy, so I could not help him . I could only watch him fall . All I could do was to stomp repeatedly at the sight of him .
Oh, my Lord . Was he actually crying?
“How much longer… must I suffer?”
A deep, deep voice asked . I couldn’t tell how deep his pain was based on his voice alone . It’s so incredibly deep that I couldn’t even hear it . It made me want to do whatever he wanted me to do . However, unlike me, who could just bite my nails as I felt my uselessness, Caitel looked cold .
“For as long as you live . ”
The emperor who rose from the throne walked to his knight . One step at a time . He walked so slowly that I started to feel impatient .
“But it won’t be forever . ”
Standing right in front of Assisi, Caitel lowered his body . Assisi looked up at the emperor who gazed at his teary wet eyes right before him .
“You are me, and I am you . ”
Caitel placed his hand on Assisi’s shoulder .
“My knight, you are my mirror . ”
Assisi lowered his eyes with a somber look . Usually, it would be a great honor to hear such a thing from the emperor, but he didn’t show such a sign . Caitel grabbed him gently and made him stand .
Assisi, who rose, still shook his head with eyes filled with deep sadness . Caitel sighed .
“I promise . When I leave this world someday, I will kill you before I go . ”
