I am an idiot.
I should have guessed this.
Why didn't I think of this?
How could I be so stupid?
Today was my coronation. The most important day for any heir who is going to be a king.
It was important for me too.
I was attacked today.
The government sent 30 men, and out of those 30, 27 were sent to kill me. Or maybe all of them.
It was a foolish way to attack.
Why would they attack me in broad daylight?
Why would they attack me in the presence of my security?
It was too foolish.
If they wanted to kill me, they would have back stabbed me. Or ambushed me when I was alone. But they didn't.
They completely revealed them, and tried to kill me.
They were no ordinary humans.
They had a system inside them. Just like me.
They were just like me.
Maybe they thought they would kill me if they sent 27 superhuman.
But why?
They were the government's men.
If they tried to kill me, then the government would have been exposed.
They would have been caught red handed.
Then why did they try to do something so foolish?
When I went to the parliament, that guy told me that they were ordered to kill me, but didn't know who.
And according to that Augustus...I even remember his name clearly.
Dammit!
According to Augustus, the one who ordered to kill me was the government. But they are used and manipulated by someone else.
He even said he himself was being attacked many times.
I don't know if I should believe him or not.
He threatened me. And he is my enemy.
When I killed that first man by cutting his head, he got up again and tried to kill Daulla.
After that when Daulla and I were chasing them, the man that I killed by throwing my sword, also tried to attack Daulla.
And the last man.
I should have figured it out by then.
I should have guessed it by then.
Their target wasn't me, their target was...
When I reached the palace, the gate was open.
I walked further in, only to see corpses lying around.
There were countless corpses in the garden, under the pavilion.
Everywhere I saw, I saw corpses.
Some corpses were of security guards, and some were of...
"Lily, why didn't you tell me about this?"
[I didn't know]
"I told you to keep an eye on Daulla, right?"
[I told you your brain would get damage--]
"But you said it would be okay if you did it one by one, right?
[I was keeping an eye on the party]
"You should have kept an eye here too"
[Do you know how many cameras were there in the Royal Garden? I was switching it on every second, just to check if there was something unusual or not]
"I am sorry. I am just trying to find excuse. I don't want any blame"
I am an asshole.
I am very selfish.
I only care about myself.
Why?
"Why?"
Why...
"Why does this always happen to me?"
I entered the inner palace.
All the hallways were full of corpses.
Corpses of security teams, corpses of maids, corpses of the attackers.
"Why didn't the alarm go off?"
[It's disabled. And...]
"And what?"
[All the networks are jammed. There were many outgoing connections, but none of them reached outside the palace]
So they tried to inform us, but they couldn't.
How long have they been planning this?
How long have they been waiting for this moment?
This is a perfectly planned attack.
"I can't waste my time here. I have to go wake up Daulla"
[I can check the cameras and find her]
"No need. There is no need, Lily. I know where she is. She is sleeping nicely in her room. I know it. She is waiting for me. I have to go there. She might get angry if I wake her up. But she will understand if I tell her the situation. Maybe she will think I am there to make a move on her. I can't really blame her if she thinks that. Maybe I will...huh? I will what? I feel strange. Why does my heart feel so tight? Why is my heart beating so fast? What's happening? I feel sleepy. Maybe I will just go in Daulla's room and sleep beside her. I wonder what she will say when she wakes up in the morning. Maybe she will be surprised. No. She will probably say, 'You didn't do anything strange to me, right?' and I will reply with...no. I won't reply. Huh? Why do these hallways look so long? I have been walking for a while now. Why am I walking so slow? Why does my body feel so heavy? I just want to sleep. I want to rest. I will go into Daulla's room and rest. And when I wake up in the morning, everything will be back to normal. Maybe this is all a dream? Yeah. That's it. I still haven't woken up since I slept last night. It's a strange dream, isn't it Lily? It feels so real. But there is no way it's real. Everything was going so well. I should really wake up now. I have my Coronation. And then party. I will get engaged to Lier. And…and after that...Elena and I will do it in my room. But first I need to wake up. I will just close my eyes now, and wake up. Lier and Daulla will be crushing be between them. Hey Lily. Wake me up please. This dream is too long. I don't want to see this dream. I just want to wake up now. Hey Lily, how do I wake up?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
