NovelEnglishUnder the Same Sunset as That Day
As Mia expected, Lynsha knew the location of the mansion where the Chancellor was kept.
“Sure, it was owned by a merchant or something. I don’t think it has ever been used by the revolutionaries though…”
Her words made it more credible that they were talking about the same building. The fact that it was hidden from the amateur revolutionaries seems to prove the importance of the building.
By the way, Lynsha, who heard the situation from Mia, kindly agreed to guide them. Yet, as they were leaving…
“What’s wrong?”
Mia asked Lynsha who kept on looking at her face.
“Oh, yeah. Uhm… It’s nothing…I know I did ask you to stop all this conflict… its just… uhm… I didn’t think you would actually try to do it. Especially since you look like…”
“Like what?”
Lynsha shakes her head silently to Mia who was confused. Lynsha walked off.
“… Nothing. Let’s go.”
“I feel like she was about to say something extremely rude …”
Mia had a slightly unsettled look, but still ran after Lynsha.
Senia seemed quiet and deserted. There were few people who were on the roads, but they were sparse enough.

Keithwood looked around with a grudge.
“It can’t be helped. No one wants to get involved in a needless conflict.”
Lynsha shrugged and then headed for a narrow alley. She made a few corner turns and then…
“There!”
The group looked at where Lynsha was pointing. It was a large mansion sitting on an even larger garden. There were no large plants or bushes that can hide them approaching the entrance.
“What should we do? We can wait until it gets dark…”
As if prompted by Lynsha’s words, the area began to dim.
Mia looked up at the sky
“Oh, it’s already sunset…”
She muttered unintentionally and her eyes narrowed slightly. Before they knew it, dusk was approaching. The red, fiery red sunset seemed to burn the horizon.
It’s like… like that day… (Mia)
The sun was just like that fateful day. Curses reached her ears. Her slow walking exposed her to eyes full of hate.
Her loneliness from that day returned…
Somehow… I don’t like this place. It seems something terrible is about to happen.
The person who caused her pain is inside the building in front of them. The thought of it made her hairs stand up. Mia instinctively touches her arm, but the chills cling to her body and weren’t disappearing.
“Are you scared, Mia?”
“Huh?”
When she looked sideways, Abel was staring at her with a serious look.
“Ah … Abel … No, it’s nothing.”
Mia shook her head a little. It wasn’t fear. It was just that the scene seemed reminiscent of her fate from the past. Her reply didn’t dissuade Abel, however. Abel stared at Mia’s face and then gently took Mia’s hand.
“… Eh?”
It took a moment for the action to register. But as soon as it did, Mia flinched so hard that her feet almost left the ground.
“Whoa… Huh?!”
Whatever anxiety that occupied Mia’s heart just now suddenly disappeared! Abel’s hand gently wrapped Mia’s hand. The warmth of his hands radiated the cold Mia.
“I’m sorry for doing this suddenly. But this is what my mother does to me to help me calm down.”
Abel’s tone was as if he was making an excuse out of an embarrassment. And the tip of his nose was now a shade of pink.
“Oh, oh, thank you for your concern… Abel”
Mia also turned a shade of pink darker. She spoke with a voice that hardly suppressed her embarrassment.
By the way, just to confirm it to those who were unsure… all they did was held hands.

“What happened to both of you?”
At that time, Sion, who was in front of them, called out.
Hey! Just as things were finally getting good!
Mia complained although inwardly she was a little relieved. She was unfamiliar with romantic situations and that handholding was more than enough to break her comfort zone.
“I know it’s necessary for the survival of my country, but it’s better to choose the time and place, my dear princess.” (Dion)
Dion said with a wide grin.
“And it’s still early to give birth to a successor.” (Dion)
“Now, here! I can’t give birth to a child just by holding hands! Maybe. Right? Right?”
For something that is biologically impossible, Mia didn’t seem confident. Instead, Anne stood in front of Dion to protect Mia.
“Sir Dion, don’t make fun of Mia-sama too much.”
“Haha. Between Ludwig and you, our dear princess seems to have two overprotective nannies.”
Mia glances at Dion who didn’t show any remorse whatsoever. She glared at him but soon her expression became soft.
It was dusk, the same as that fateful day. The sun seemed to have bled the whole sky red. It was ominous… but it was encouraging that she was not alone this time. She has Abel. Sion, Keithwood, and Dion. And next to her was Anne, a loyal vassal, and Ludwig, even if he is far away, and even Tiona, who was her nemesis.
It’s okay, this will definitely work. We can do this.
Mia nodded confidently.
Only one person was looking at them with a dubious expression.
“You guys don’t you think we should be hiding… or something?” (Lynsha)
