I Grabbed the Tyrant’s Heart - Chapter 39

No, calm yourself down. You can’t be swayed. At most, Euseniel has returned. I finally met her again

There was one more reason not to kill the eyesores. If I let go of the boiling murderous intent, I will be consumed by the devil.

No, no, no…….

“Let the meeting continue.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“It is appropriate to keep an eye on the Southern Empire’s trends. Your Majesty, monsters are infesting on three sides except for the border facing the Southern Empire, so we cannot neglect our vigilance here either.”

“Certainly, the Minister of the Internal Affairs is right. Although it is rather quiet these days. Over the past 10 years, the monsters’ intent to kill has risen and subsided several times.”

The Minister of Defense, Count Hilde, spoke.

“Then, more budget support-”

“In what way-”

A tedious discussion ensues. The answer was already in my head, but I didn’t open my mouth. The knowledge floating in my head says that a process of discussion among the ministers is also necessary to decide on such an agenda.

And not forgetting to adjust my complexion so it would look a bit bad. Unfortunately, it’s hard to prevent my story from entering Euseniel’s ears, so I have to be careful in many ways.

“Your Majesty, if you allow, we will discuss and report the detailed agenda. It seems that His Majesty does not have to watch this tedious process.”

“That is correct.”

As expected, Duke Hardland, who had shown signs of caring about my health in the past few days, suggested it, and the chancellor agreed.

“I’ll leave it to you .”

I decided to accept it rather than reject it.

Otherwise, I might kill all those who have those filthy soul plates whose eyes, nose and mouth look like crushed filth.

And above all, it seemed that Euseniel had entered the imperial palace.

I moved my steps, resisting the desire to trap my love that was walking into my palm.

There are things I need to prepare before Euseniel comes. First of all, I’ll have to check the level of paleness on my face again.

“Hmm…….”

Once I arrived at the imperial palace, where should I go?

I said I was coming to the imperial palace, but Tess only said yes. He didn’t tell me where to go.

“Mmm.”

Since I’m here anyway, let’s go to Hill Palace.

I checked the fruit I had deliberately brought and went to Hill Palace. When I asked my father, he said that Tess hadn’t looked good since the end of the year. He was like that at the ball too.

Even when he was a child, he had been prone to illness. Could it be because of that?

“Lady Hardland, you can come this way.”

After walking aimlessly, I arrived at Hill Palace. To my surprise, no one stopped me.

I wondered if I would be able to enter Hill Palace, but actually the chief attendant came out and guided me himself.

My worries have been resolved, but I am bewildered.

The chief attendant stopped in front of a room and opened the door. Glancing inside, the large space was almost empty.

“Please go in.”

As I moved my steps inside, the chief attendant said.

“His Majesty is sleeping now.”

“What?”

“Then I’ll take my leave.”

Embarrassingly, he left the room before I even came to my senses.

…… what?

I didn’t know what to do with a sleeping person, but the other person was Tess. I think I must have seen him sleeping dozens, no, hundreds of times, so I approached the bed without panic.

As I approached cautiously, I saw Tess sleeping soundly. He was holding the blanket without covering himself properly. So I tried to cover him properly, but I couldn’t get it out of his arms.

I tried to call an attendant to bring a blanket, but the room was warm so I let it be.

Looking at him like this, it definitely brings back his childhood image. His original facial features were the same, but the atmosphere has changed dramatically.

In the past, he felt like an innocent angel. But now I think he is like a devil who has sunk into the darkness.

Still, even if I hadn’t known that it was Tess from the beginning, I would have been able to convince myself anyway. Except for his hair and eye color.

“Tess?”

The motionless Tess looked uneasy so I put my finger under his nose and checked his breath. I can feel the heat between the slightly open lips. If he sleeps with his mouth open, his lips will dry out.

I was about to slightly raise his lower lip, thinking of closing his lips, but at that moment, Tess moved and put my index finger between his lips.

“Ah.”

Tess lightly bit my finger. I tried to pull it out, but his lips held onto it and wouldn’t let go.

“Te-“

Something soft touched my fingers that were inside.

“Um…….”

Like eating something tasty, Tess started sucking my finger and I missed the timing to pull it out.

“Tess.”

I can feel something which must be his tongue running through my fingers. From the tip of the finger to each knuckle, one by one. The slight heat slowly climbed up my wrists and arms, then down to my chest.

“Ah.”

I uttered an incomprehensible sound and hurriedly shut my mouth.

Were my fingers so sensitive?

I tried to remove my finger trying not to wake ess. But it’s not working as if it’s stuck in something sticky. Finally, even the third finger that had been pushing his lips slipped into his mouth inside.

“Um, ung…….”

Tess smiled a little, whatever he was dreaming of.

My face is hot now!

“Are you sure you’re sleeping? Tess.”

I can only hear the sucking sound from the side.

“I’ll give you a hundred kisses when you open your eyes.”

I threw a bait just in case, but he didn’t budge. I guess he was really asleep.

It’s my fault for doubting you, who seems to be having such a hard time. But Tess, I want you to know that I had no choice but to do this, considering your track record.

It was hard to keep sitting with my fingers caught, so I quietly moved to the bed.

A familiar, sweet scent permeates my nose. A tingling scent that clouded a person’s mind.

I still couldn’t tell if my fingers were being sucked or licked. Seeing Tess sleeping made me drowsy too. Sleeping late for the past few days may also have played a part.

“Tess, let go of this, ack.”

I slipped on Tess’ shoulder when I tried to push him down. Now I ended up above his body.
