“That, what is that…” 

 

“Shh!”

 

I put my index finger on my lips.

 

Then, looking at my Dad hammering away from a distance, I muttered timidly. 

 

“I only have to tell the priest…” 

 

“Yes? Just to me? Ah, what does it mean? T, this, how….” 

 

Zadkiel grabbed his head and walked around aimlessly, not knowing what to do.

 

“P, princess. Come this way.”

 

He took my hand with a grim expression and walked out of the barracks.

 

* * * 

 

Inside the carriage on the way back after serving at the temple.

 

Dad stroked my hair like he was proud.

 

“My princess, you worked hard today.”

 

“No. I wasn’t struggling at all. Dad suffered more, well. Dad is amazing. The temple became prettier in one day.”

 

“Ahaha! Of course, of course. Daddy is so strong!”

 

“That’s right! Wahaha, Dad is the best!”

 

“Ah, that’s right. Princess!”

 

“Eung?” 

 

“Dad has to go to Uncle Axion’s house today. Cheshire has training.”

 

“Ooh, really? I want to go too!”

 

“Aren’t you tired?”

 

“Eung eung! I’m going to watch Cheshire, too!”

 

It’s been a while! I was so excited that I clenched my fists and shook them.

 

“…What is it? What’s the matter?”

 

But my Dad was staring at me with his eyes wide open.

 

What’s with the corners of the lips that are raised in a sinister way?

 

“What…” 

 

Did I like talking about Cheshire too much? 

 

Embarrassed, I lowered my happy hand and looked out the window.

 

* * *

 

Duke of Libre.

 

I sat quietly in one corner of the training ground, watching Dad and Cheshire training, lost in thought.

 

‘When will Cheshire become a sword master like Dad?’

 

Cheshire is also strong now, but he needs to become stronger.

 

To be exact.

 

‘Enough to beat my Dad.’

 

Just then, Cheshire came to me, wiping his sweat.

 

“Cheshiree!” 

 

I smiled and quickly handed the water.

 

“Drink! You’re working hard today, too?”

 

“Thank you.”

 

“Ehehe.”

 

I put a flower cup on my chin, and looked lovingly at Cheshire, who sat next to me.

 

“…What? Why are you looking at me like that?”

 

“Wahaha. No, it’s nothing.”

 

The only one that can blow the Emperor’s neck, the final villain.

 

The main character who will bring a happy ending to this world.

 

“Hehe. I like it.”

 

I immediately grabbed Cheshire’s arm, who was sitting next to me, and clung to him.

 

“Ah.”

 

Of course, it was slashed like a knife in one second.

 

“…I’m sorry. It stinks. I sweated a lot.”

 

 “You’re not!”

 

“I—.”

 

Tsk. Just because you don’t want to stick with me.

 

I pouted out my mouth.

 

“You said you didn’t like it because my Dad trained you so much. Why are you working so hard?”

 

“….”

 

Cheshire was taken aback for some reason, then replied in a slow tempo.

 

“…I’ll do my best. Uncle is coming on purpose.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

Well, it’s a good thing, since he’ll be able to quickly become a sword master if he learns from Dad.

 

“But, Cheshire.”

 

“Eung.”

 

“How do you become a swordmaster?”

 

“What, like Uncle?”

 

“Eung.”

 

“I don’t know very well.”

 

Cheshire asked me back.

 

“You said it the first time to the Uncle. Don’t you know?”

 

“What? The swordmaster?”

 

“Eung.”

 

“Really?”

 

I opened my mouth wide.

 

It seems that the sword master who regularly appears in fantasy novels was Enoch Rubinstein in this world.

 

‘I didn’t know this again.’

 

As expected, it is like a novel that is full of ability, spotlight, and all good things to the main character.

 

“I see.”

 

I put my chin up and looked at my Dad in the training ground.

 

He was also watching the swords of the four Axion’s soldiers as if he had any stamina left after teaching Cheshire for a long time.

 

Even in the temple, there is no sign of tiredness as he has done all the work.

 

That… monster!

 

‘Cheshire, you can beat my Dad, right?’

 

I was suddenly confused.

 

The final part of the original work.

 

It is my Dad who points the sword at the Emperor first.

 

The Emperor had no choice not to die and eventually brainwashed Dad with all his remaining vitality.

 

And grow old at once.

 

‘It was all planned by my Dad.’

 

He has to make him consume all his life force so that the Primera can’t do anything. 

 

In the end, the brainwashed Dad and Cheshire fight each other.

 

It’s over when Cheshire, who has safely subdued Dad, kills the emperor.

 

That’s why Cheshire has to become a sword master.

 

He has to be as strong as Dad to fight and subdue him without killing him.

 

“Haa.” 

 

But Dad is too strong…

 

Looking at my Dad, who shows no signs of exhaustion, I stick my tongue out.

 

“….?” 

 

I could feel the gaze. When I turned my head, Cheshire was staring at me.

 

“Why?”

 

“Do you like someone strong?”

 

“Eung?” 

 

“So, like Uncle.” 

 

“Ah. Well, if it’s strong, it’s good. Daddy is cool.”

 

“Yeah…” 

 

When the flat conversation was cut off, there was silence.

 

Then Cheshire opened his mouth after a long time.

 

“But you can’t marry Uncle.” 

 

“Eung?” 

 

“Family members cannot marry each other.” 

 

“…? I know that.” 

 

What are you talking about out of the blue?

 

“I’m telling you because you don’t seem to know.”

 

Cheshire spoke with determined eyes like a teacher who taught me what I really didn’t know. 

 

I was dumbfounded.

 

“Why don’t I know that? I am not stupid.”

 

“You said you would marry Uncle when you grow up.” 

 

“…?” 

 

What are you talking about? I was thinking with my mouth open, and I realized right away.

 

“Ah!”

 

“I’m the kid who will marry my Dad later!”

 

―That kind of thing is just a joke that a father and daughter usually do. 

 

I also do it often with my Dad.

 

‘Phew, silly Dad. My princess said that she was going to marry me for playing with me again, so what….’

 

He must have been making silly comments around the neighborhood.

 

I shook my head.

 

“It’s just a joke! I know I can’t get married with my family. I’m not a fool!”

 

“….” 

 

Chesier somehow raised himself with a sullen face.

 

“Where are you going?”

 

“To train.”

 

“But you only rest for a short time?” 

 

“I rested.”

 

“Eh. Don’t do that, let’s do it after we eat our pudding. Aunt Martha told me to go eat pudding with you.”

 

“No. You eat alone.”

 

Cheshire straightened the wooden sword he was holding, and he glared somewhere.

 

It was the side where Dad and the soldier were. 

 

“You’ll get stronger soon.”

 

“Eung? C, Cheshire! Wait a minute!” 

 

Then, before I could catch him, he went back to training.

 

“Wow. Pudding…” 

 

I should just eat alone.

 

It’s been a while since I saw his face, I was wondering if we should have sweet dessert time.

 

 

“I’ll get stronger soon.”

 

It’s good if you get stronger quickly, well.

 

I stopped after entering the house, and looked back with a smile.

 

Far beyond the low wall of the mansion.

 

I could see the tall and tall imperial palace towering in the middle of the Capital. 

 

‘It’s going to be a mess soon, right?’

 

A revelation from God descending to the lowest class.

 

The teachings of the Emperor, who urged commoners and powerless people not to be treated as human beings, would be denied.

 

Those who worshiped the Emperor like a God would fall into confusion.

 

With this as an opportunity, the Emperor’s absolute power will be cracked and gradually collapse.

 

I took light steps back into the house.

 

‘Hmph, do you think you’re the only Primera?’

 

I am also Primera.

 

* * *

 

Three days after that.

 

Emperor’s office.

 

“The revelation is said to have come down.”

 

His aide, Ramon, reported to the Emperor, Nicholas, who was busy scribbling a pen over the papers.  

 

Nicholas didn’t even look up and kept moving his hand.

 

“Revelation?” 

 

It was an unfamiliar, very old word. 

 

So, it’s like an ancient ghost story that happened hundreds of years ago.

 

“Suddenly what?”

 

Nicholas laughed and kept writing.

 

“Is there an urgent reason that the High Priestess has to do an out-of-season show?”

 

“That… It is not a revelation that came down to the high priest.”

 

Suddenly, Nicholas’ hand, which had been moving for a while, stopped.

 

Only then did he raise his eyes, and aide Ramon had a pale face.

 

“What is it?”

 

“It is said that the one who received the revelation was a young priest named Zadkiel Therot of the Seraph Temple.”

 

“Seraph?”

 

If it’s a Seraph temple, it’s a gathering place for worms.

 

Old church people who dare not obey the will of the Emperor. 

 

Crying for compassionate justice and sacrifice, everything is torn to the eye—.

 

So, definitely.

 

A gutter of things like Enoch Rubinstein that only talks right.

 

“How did the revelation come down?”

 

“H, here it is.”

 

Ramon trembled and put a piece of paper on Nicholas’ desk.

 

[The faith of my faithful servants reached the temple above heaven.

 

I bless the servants of Seraph, who have been persecuted but have silently kept my will.

 

When the moon in the sky is full for the first time since I’ve been there.

 

All the sick who were cared for by Seraph’s servants will be healed at the same time as if they were washed, and they will wake up shaking their seats.]

 

Nicholas’ eyes widened as he read it.

 

“According to the interpretation of this temple…” 

 

Ramon looked up and added.

 

“Last day of the month. So when the full moon rises…” 

 

“….” 

 

“…it is said that it is a revelation that the sick people being cared for in the Seraph Temple are miraculously healed at the same time.”
