I Tamed a Tyrant and Ran Away

Purene is one of the fruits of the grape family and has been called the king of all fruits.

‘When I was young. I really wanted to eat this.’

For a moment, Charlize’s eyes sank.

Because everything presented to Ronan didn’t come back to Charlize.

At the last order, it was placed in front of Charlize.

In fact, even all of them were eaten by the employees.

[We’re gonna eat it.]

[Because even if we do this, the Grand Duke will not know about it anyway.]

Charlize did not come forward even after hearing their murmurs.

If she acts nice. If she doesn’t make a fuss.

She thought she could be loved by her family. She thought they’d understand her feelings.

‘But now I don’t need Ronan’s affection anymore.’

Charlize, who had been blind as a child, was no longer there. Charlize was now completely alone. Nevertheless.

Sweet.

Charlize savored Purene.

The sweet juice spreads all over her mouth.

“How is it, Master?”

“It’s delicious, Your Majesty.”

Sweet. Sweet and sweet.

As a child, Charlize received an empty fruit basket. When Charlize didn’t say anything, the employees were in high spirits.

It didn’t matter if she was ignored. She just loved her family.

But Ronan was not up to it.

After 400 years as Kiera, it was a very distant memory.

Memories are touched and revived like memories. The first warmth was overlaid on the fruit called ‘Purene’.

There was Dylan, who gave it to her.

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“I’m glad it’s delicious.”

Dylan smiled softly. After eating it, the flavor was great, of course, but it wasn’t a stimulus that would leave a lasting impression.

Still.

Quite, no. Thank you so much.

“That’s sweet of you, Your Majesty.”

“This is the Master’s teaching.”

Dylan fixed his gaze on Charlize and put a purene in his mouth.

Purene’s color was very red. Intense red that provokes inner desires. The purene squashed between Dylan’s lips involuntarily caught her attention.

The juice flows strangely. It was reflected by the light and sparkled.

‘Is it a seduction?’

Dylan’s dining etiquette has always been perfect since Charlize had seen him. Like that…

Her thought was interrupted. Because Dylan picked up another purene and gave it to Charlize.

Charlize opened her mouth gently.

‘Yum-yum, she’s too cute to say.’

Dylan looked at Charlize and thought.

He was surprised to see her munching on the fruit she received without refusing.

At first, the hostility of Charlize, who was on guard, was coming to Dylan. He wonders if it felt like this.

Her defenseless eyelashes are long. Her dreamy atmosphere was mysterious.

It was amazing that just by receiving a favor from someone, his heart could be full. Charlize who made Dylan like this, of course.

“Isn’t there a lot of theory about where the song originated?”

“Yes, Master.”

Charlize’s voice was nice to hear.

It was like a voice made by a mixture of angel sweetness and fairy charm.

“The theory that labor songs were first created to forget the pain of labor, the theory that they were first made for festivals or powerful people, and the theory that God gave them grace.”

Dylan, who had been listening in silence, replied.

“I have a firm belief about the origins of the song.”

“…What is it?”

Dylan looked at Charlize.

Even the dust in the air seems to glisten in the sunlight for Charlize.

Dylan was an unrealistic genius. At this moment, he was caught up in a stream of inspiration. A perfectly composed piece of music was already rushing through his mind.

“It’s a theory that the song was made to seduce the opposite sex.”

Dylan spoke calmly.

He wanted to give her everything he had.

He wanted to give everything and dedicate ‘Dylan’ himself to Charlize.

It had to be.

It was not logic, but emotion.

“…There is a song I wrote for Master.”

He just remembered it, but he didn’t say it until then. Already enough, Charlize looked at Dylan with a surprised look.

“If possible, I’d like to play it for you here. Could you give me a chance to dedicate it?”

Now the purene was almost all eaten.

The piano class is not over yet. Charlize smiled vaguely.

“Of course, Your Majesty.”

Dylan stood up politely. Then, he sat in the chair with a more eloquent gesture than any other composer in the world.

Charlize blinked and paid attention to Dylan. Dylan’s profile is fine. The exposed white neck looks like a gentle sheep.

Dylan’s fingers playing the piano were elegantly long. An enchanting melody began to tickle her ears.

‘Exciting.’

The excitement of this world was a song that reminded her of everything.

The heart of a child who cannot sleep with excitement the day before he/she goes out with his/her family, a dense conversation with his/her loved one, and the excitement of the first day when he/she achieved his/her long-awaited dream.

Like a smile of the opposite sex, a challenge to an unknown territory, and the cleanliness of new white bed linen.

‘It’s a confession, just like yesterday.’

Like Dylan’s painting on the piano, the song was full of love.

Charlize seemed to have become Dylan’s muse.

Art is delicate. In the end, it is a matter of revealing oneself, so lies cannot be buried. Sublimation.

She realizes. This is sincere.

It’s a big, bright knock at the door of the heart. It’s called desperate love.

Dylan played the piano. It was so passionate that she felt like it was going to burn her ears. Her heart is heavily weighed down. By the unique fluctuating emotions of the fascinated.

After the performance, Dylan and her eyes were entangled in silence. When she looked at his eyes.

‘I guess he loves me.’

To me.

Charlize thought.

But this time, Charlize couldn’t smile face to face.

“Everybody knows in a month that there will be a promotion review for the Knights. It’s difficult if you don’t concentrate on your swordsmanship training.”

Kahu said, looking at the knights.

As the First Imperial Knights Commander, he was obliged to lead the knights.

Although the backing took precedence, it had to be supported by skill. This is because the number of knights who will join in this promotion review may change. Everyone was nervous.

“If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.”

“Yes, Commander.”

The knights, who had been training hard, bowed their heads every time Kahu passed by. However, no matter how important the promotion review is, is it because there is still one month left? Not everyone was concentrating.

“Hey, did you hear the news?”

“What do you mean? Your Majesty and the grandmaster?”

Kahu stopped at the murmuring voice. The knights said.

“That’s right. His Majesty confessed his love to the grandmaster. In front of the maids. He declared that he would court her publicly in the future.”

“It’s amazing. But, strangely, it makes sense. I mean… His Majesty and the grandmaster.”

It was a surprising yet accepting atmosphere. That’s how much Charlize and Dylan were out of the question for everyone.

It was also the subject of great admiration, which the imperial knight dared not argue.

However, Kahu, who was about to pass by, was hardened like a stone and couldn’t move. There were sounds of swords clashing with each other throughout the training center.

Chaeng-Chaeng!

‘A confession of love?’

Kahu was surprised. Of course, the last time he spoke to Dylan alone at the ball. He tried to open Dylan’s heart.

‘That man, love?’

Before returning, Dylan seemed to have no human emotion. He was not cruel, but he was far from emotional.

Moreover, at the time of their private meeting, Dylan seemed to deny Kahu’s suspicions.

So he secretly assumed that it wasn’t love.

His heart was beating irregularly.

‘It’s not strange that the emperor loves the grandmaster.’

It was him who doubted it. But why, like this? He felt dizzy in front of his eyes.

He finally understood what it meant to be confused. Yes, Kahu was in a very bad mood.

But. Why? Why did he feel bad?

“Commander, could you please take a look at my sword?”

“Ah.”

Kahu belatedly came to his senses at the words of the knight asking for guidance.

With a tingling spirit, Kahu picked up his sword for now. His subordinates have been silent as if he were grateful.

If that’s why he’s in such a bad mood. No way,

“Then, I’ll strike first.”

For me, he.

‘Do I like her?’

Chaenggang.

“Commander…?”

Kahu’s hands were shaking. A knight never lets go of a sword. The moment you let go, it’s death.

But Kahu’s hand felt empty. He looked down and saw a sword rolling back on the floor.

Kahu’s sword wasn’t weak enough to fly away because of a simple bump.

This is what Kahu missed. The other knight looked at Kahu in surprise.

Kahu was shocked.

“Are you all right, Commander?”

“You look so pale.”

Soon, the knights who were training next to him also started to worry about Kahu. But Kahu could hardly come to his senses.

‘Since when did I like her…’

The realization was sudden.

The last time Kahu saw Charlize. Charlize had her sword pointed at his neck.

Charlize’s gaze was cold. The eyes of an absolute strong person. Charlize’s intention to kill was real. A face that hesitated with a momentary morality.

After chasing after Charlize like this, he thought he might like her.

However,

‘I wonder if I’ve already liked her.’

“Commander, I think you should take a rest.”

“Your hands are shaking so much!”

“Should I get a doctor?”

“No, it’s okay.”

Kahu stopped the worried knights. It was so clear when he realized it.

‘I just didn’t realize it.’

Kahu’s eyes widened.

He saw his sword on the floor. He lost his sword.

An unknown amount of anxiety flooded in.

The first time Kahu saw Charlize again was in a public place a week later.

To be precise, it was the place where the important figures directly under the emperor received their prizes. It was an awards ceremony that combined rewards for their good work and future encouragement.

“Your Majesty the Emperor will eat with the grandmaster.”

After the invited nobles entered, Charlize and Dylan appeared last.

All the nobles stood up at the scream of the servant. Dylan’s feelings for Charlize were already known to everyone in the Imperial Palace.

Kahu, who was just watching from afar, was a little startled and dazed.

‘I never thought I’d be this distressed.’

Suddenly, he felt pain in his chest. Kahu covered his heart with his palm and pressed it hard.

As soon as he saw Charlize, his heart raced like it was going to explode. He doesn’t know when, but it became clear that he was in love with Charlize.

Unrequited love.

He fell in love, with Charlize.

It was a one-sided love. He had never heard of Charlize accepting the emperor, but he had seen it with his own eyes.

He saw Charlize with Dylan. She was completely different from the look in her eyes. Warmth.

‘I didn’t want to see Charlize’s face like that with other men.’

Suddenly, Charlize and his eyes were entangled in the air. His heart was pounding.

But the next moment,

The emperor blocked Charlize’s view.
