Island Yacha (1)
Dongbaek Palace has been suffering from the ever-increasing crowds of people recently.
It was because of the business Cecilia had recently started.
-So, for this part, we modified the design like this… … .
-Tailor! Where did the tailor go?
-It doesn’t fit! Bring me some pins.
-You see those things on the C31 shelf? Those… … What? Did the other team take them first? You idiot! I told you to reserve them first!
-What about the model? When is the model who was supposed to come by this time coming? Send someone quickly and find out! There’s an urgent deadline right now!
With so many people milling around the palace, it was difficult to tell who was who.
The butlers and maids also moved with half-hearted expressions, only going as far as to replenish the guests’ snacks and drinks so they wouldn’t go hungry.
“… … It seems like the more time passes by here, the more disoriented I become.”
Kirshon burst into laughter as he entered Dongbaek Palace with the workshop workers carrying a lot of ordered items.
It’s to the point where there isn’t even a single attendant to greet new guests.
I haven’t even started my business in earnest yet, so is it okay for me to be this busy?
‘I thought you were busy finishing up the dresses and formal attire for the upcoming social party at the royal palace?’
Certainly, all of Cecilia’s clothes that I had seen in passing were of excellent design and material.
Even the discerning Kirshon was quite impressed.
The problem was the way it was sold.
No matter how good the quality of a product is, if it is not promoted properly, it can be a big problem.
Moreover, word of mouth was the most important factor in the haute couture that Cecilia handled.
Acquiring the first customer is important.
‘Considering Theo’s recent reputation, I have no worries… … but it is also true that the risk is great.’
It was around the time Kirshon put the bear in his mouth.
“Are you here, Mother?”
Cecilia discovered Kirshon late and approached him with a slightly tired look on her face.
Although the area under his eyes was dark and dead, his pupils were shining brightly.
animation.
It was the same look that Kirshon had noticed and fallen in love with when he first saw Cecilia on stage a long time ago.
“Yes. I brought all the items you asked for, but… … You know that the payment from last time is almost reaching its limit, right? I tell you this over and over again, I never accept credit.”
“Yes, I am fully aware of that. There will be a big social party in a few days, and the shop will open around that time, so when I start taking orders, my cash flow will be somewhat easier. I am already getting orders and quotes.”
“Yeah, well, since you’re doing it on your own, I don’t have anything more to say.”
Clearly, Cecilia was doing very well for a newbie in business.
But isn’t worrying about what your children are doing something that all parents have in common?
Cecilia also knew what Kirshon was thinking, and she smiled and said.

“Don’t worry, I won’t work too hard. If something really difficult comes up, I’ll ask your mother for advice.”
“Hmm! If you say so.”
Another thing all parents have in common is that they never dislike their children’s misbehavior, even after they become adults.
Kirshon couldn’t help but cough in vain, perhaps out of embarrassment, and the corners of his lips twitched.
“Oh, but is it okay for you to stay here?”
Then, Kirshon suddenly remembered something and quickly changed the subject.
Cecilia tilted her head.
“Is something wrong? Oh, by any chance, is the treatment of the members that your son asked you to finish?”
“That’s okay, I’m currently working on connecting the nervous system. That’s not it, I’m talking about the news from the Rose Palace.”
“Rose Palace… … Is that it?”
Cecilia’s eyes trembled slightly.
“I guess you don’t care about what’s going on outside. But your son is the center of attention.”
“Oh, is something wrong with your son?”
Cecilia grabbed Kirshon by the collar in a hurry.
“Tch, tch! Let me put this aside! And I’ve told you this many times! He’s a guy with a dozen snakes in his stomach! What kind of trouble can a guy like that have?”
“then……!”
“That bastard knocked off the third lady’s balls this morning. He accused the Central Intelligence Agency director of treason.”
“… … !”
Kirshon continued speaking, lightly biting the bear’s tail in his mouth.
Phew-
“Because of that, it’s really chaotic outside. You should be careful too. People will be swarming like a pack of dogs.”
“Is that so? So your son wasn’t hurt?”
“Huh? I heard that?”
Kirshon blinked his eyes.
Cecilia’s reaction was different from what I expected.
I thought you would definitely be happy, but you seemed so indifferent.
“That’s great. Thank you for telling me. Well, I have another meeting, so I’ll go now.”
Cecilia bowed and went back into the palace.
An attitude no different from usual.
“… … .”
Kirshon stood there blankly, his mouth open, scratching the back of his head.

‘Emil… … is dead.’
Cecilia’s mind was filled with many thoughts as she walked to the conference room.
I tried my best to pretend like nothing happened to Kirsten.

It really couldn’t be that I didn’t care.
In fact, there was no meeting that was held.
‘Emil is dead… … .’
Cecilia sat alone in the empty conference room, covering her face with both hands, after giving strict orders not to let anyone in.
One by one, the hardships I had endured because of Emil’s hat flashed through my mind.
There were many malicious rumors that called Cecilia a prostitute and a prodigy, who entered the Rose Palace while only looking at Kyle and severing ties with her mother.
The atmosphere was such that Theo, who had not been able to stand out, was ignored and called a cripple.
Even the various assassination threats made by the Central Intelligence Agency to get them out of the Rose Palace.
To protect Theo, I lived each day as if I was walking on the edge of a knife.
So I didn’t know that I was recruiting Theo even more.
-When this mother, this weak and helpless mother, dies one day, there will be no one to protect her son. What will you do then?
Since when did it start?
Cecilia instinctively realized that her life was running out.
Whether it was because of an assassination or an unknown illness.
I had a vague feeling that I might die before I had even a few years left.
Because the atmosphere blowing towards Theo’s hat was unusual.
Sometimes he would have nightmares about being falsely accused and being beheaded.
There, Theo was looking at himself with sad eyes.
Please, my son, do not follow the path of this poor mother. Find your son’s happiness.
I should have said this first… I’m sorry I’m late.
So please, leave this place.
Run away, son.
‘… … But my son changed my fate, which could not have been possible.’
How much suffering must my son have gone through to get to this point?
At that thought, tears welled up in my eyes.
At that time,
“Use this.”
Suddenly, someone next to me handed me a handkerchief.
“Maid… …? I told you not to let anyone in.”
“Yes. I thought so too.”
The head maid glanced toward the door with a bitter smile.
“Kirshon strongly urged me to deliver this… … .”
“ah.”
Only then was Cecilia able to recall Kirshon’s last appearance, smiling bitterly.
Mother.

The mother knew how her poor daughter felt.
Cecilia accepted the handkerchief the head maid handed her.
There was a small note inside.
Don’t cry. It doesn’t suit you.
There is only one way to look at you. When you are picking on this mother. Always act confidently like that. And look down on the world with arrogance. That is when you shine the brightest.
That is why you are the only daughter of this Kirshon.
A faint smile appeared on Cecilia’s lips.
Then, in the end, I burst out laughing without realizing it.
ps. If you really want to cry, then cry because you feel sorry for this mother who gets her wallet emptied every time because of her bad grandson. I’ll just turn a blind eye to that kind of thing.
‘Is this what you mean the most?’
Only then was Cecilia able to shake off her heavy heart and get up from her seat.
Before she knew it, all thoughts about Emile’s hat had completely disappeared from her mind.

-The director of the Central Intelligence Agency attempted to start a rebellion!
Just as Theo’s rumor was starting to stir in Winterer, a new rumor struck him.
The rebellion of Hangryong, one of the nine dragons.
If it was a rebellion by the Central Intelligence Agency, which could be said to be the actual center of Ragnar, then it was a major incident that could never be overlooked.
Some people tried to dismiss it as just a rumor.
Soon public opinion changed dramatically because of the heads that were displayed at Ragnar’s main gate.
Including the third wife, Emil Troyban,
This was because the heads of the key executives of the Central Intelligence Agency, including Second Vice Director Morgan, and the heads of the Quadracs at the top of Ceres, were all hung in a row.
Knock, knock… … .
The floor was dyed bright red with the blood that fell from the freshly severed heads.
and,
The attached visit was even more explicit in its reference to this incident.
All of these criminals have been in collusion with Ed Troyban, a first-degree criminal, for a long time, stealing confidential information from their family… …
But the most shocking thing was at the bottom of the page.
… … In the case of this alleged rebellion, it was discovered that the Troyban clan of the East and the heretical cult, the Holy Demon Church, were behind it.
-What, what does this mean?
-Troyban and the Holy Demon Church are in league with Hangryong? Oh, no. Hangryong was a puppet of Troroyban and the Holy Demon Church?
-Disgusting… …! How could you do something like that while enjoying Ragnar’s favor?
-Troyban is the home of Hangryong, so even if that’s true, why the Holy Demon Church all of a sudden? It must be a pseudo-religion that even the imperial family declared a heresy! How could Hangryong not be crazy!
-What about you, Master? Does your Master have anything to say?
The front door was crowded with people.
The number continued to grow.

… … Then Ragnar asks Troyvan and the Church of the Holy Magic.
What was it you were planning to do with Ragnar? I will give you seventy-two hours to answer. The level of anger that the Lord of the Winter Mountains will unleash will depend on your answer.
Everyone trembled at the declaration that was no different from a declaration of war.
-It’s war!
-War may break out soon!
-The dragon’s wrath will soon turn the East into a sea of fire!
Somewhere.
It felt like a cold wind was blowing.
* * *
The person who caused the rumor that shook Winterer was definitely Theo.
This was because it was revealed that he was the one who had uncovered everything from Axion’s killing to Emil’s execution and Ed’s treasonous actions.
Already new rumors about him were spreading like wildfire.
-‘Island Yacha’ may come as close to power as the top five candidates.
There was already talk going around that the term ‘six candidates’ should be used.
but.
Theo, the main character of the rumor, was receiving some unwanted news.
“Are you saying that Ed Troyvan… has gone missing?”
Evelyn also nodded with a heavy expression.
“I just received news from Cleve. He said that the Black Dragon himself had raided the place where the Hangryong had been summoned, but that he had already fled the area long ago.”
“… … So you threw out your own younger brother as bait and ran away.”
He said he would deal with the case quickly before Edgar noticed, but it seemed like he had already noticed the situation and left like a sly snake.
Still, I thought he was a truly terrible author.
No matter how urgent it may be, how could you abandon your younger brother and his men?
‘No, rather, did no one here notice the guy running away?’
If that’s the case, then it means that Ed had been preparing to sacrifice them from the beginning for such a time.
Then suddenly a thought occurred to me.
‘Wait a minute. Then… … ?’
“They said they were chasing that guy in Heukseol, so let’s wait a little longer… … Why are you suddenly like that?”
“Arsenal No. 1! What happened to the armory that no one but the lord could enter?”
Evelyn wondered why Theo was suddenly saying something out of the blue, but she nodded, thinking there must be a reason.
“Let’s find out first.”
After a while.
“… … They say the fire is out of control and causing chaos. How do you know?”
Theo covered his face with his hands.
‘It’s late.’

The First Armory was a place where Edgar had spent a long time.
The location of the ‘Dragon’s Sword’ that I heard about in my thoughts.
It seems that when the situation seemed unfavorable, they raided the place and took the relics first.
‘Fortunately, I recovered the earrings and ring, but I still have to find them together.’
It was just then that Theo was thinking that.

At that moment, the inventory vibrated.
As if asking for something to be taken out.
