I tamed the tyrant and ran away.
Her whole inner body shook violently. Memories flooded in like a wave.
A shock wave.
The pouring black waves. She was just choked in front of so many sensations. The realization struck her like a thunderbolt.
Charlize remembered.
‘This was real.’
However, even in Charlize’s memory, there was a part where it was cut off by Charlize.
Exactly not long after she was made of swords. They came.
Wizards of the magic tower.
Because Charlize was just made of a sword, she was suffering from the broken essence and vessel. That’s why she didn’t remember that impressively.
However, there was definitely one.
Shortly after she was made into a sword, a wizard lifted Charlize carefully. The moment he saw the blue jewel embedded in the sword, his eyes lit up with intense awe.
“I’m here, Father.”
His voice, as he knelt down, was boiling hot. It was a passionate joy. As if he had finally met his long-awaited longing.
“No- You have become a new being by combining with Charlize Ronan. I should just call you Kiera from now on.”
Charlize was just dazed by the weight she couldn’t handle. The moment a person becomes a sword.
She couldn’t even have any emotions otherwise.
“Are you finally finished?”
The man whispered reverently. After that, other wizards began to gather.
“How did it go, did you succeed?”
“…Yes, it succeeded. Charlize Ronan even digested the energy of evil into her own, so her essence has turned into evil.”
The man turned around and replied back.
The energy of evil.
Not everyone who was kidnapped from the place where Charlize was trapped survived. There is something called the energy of evil in Ehyrit’s piece, and the children who swallowed the piece died because they could not withstand the energy.
In Charlize’s body, besides Ehyrit, there was clear evil. A frighteningly thick life and darkness.
With that, as a demon sword Kiera, she helped kill lives for four hundred years.
“It’s amazing, it’s unprecedented to have such a dark evil come out.”
“Isn’t this the vessel of the evil spirit?”
What is that?
Charlize thought. She was just dumbfounded. It was no world. She suffered from herself that she had become a sword.
“Now open your eyes.”
They did something to Charlize.
To be exact, what the wizards used was the energy of evil. She knew it the first time she felt it.
In fact, it was wrong that the energy in Ehyrit’s piece was the energy of evil. It was a more accurate expression if it had to be evil.
“Kiera, my evil spirit.”
Charlize’s body shone. The sapphire resonated with evils and prayers. However, it did not react.
“What’s going on?”
“How did this happen…”
The wizards looked at each other and talked.
“Isn’t this the perfect completion of the purest evil? It can’t be like this.”
“No way,”
They seemed to be talking to Charlize.
However, Kiera, the guardian sword of the empire, was a sword made to communicate only with the emperor. There was no way they could communicate with her.
“Oh my God, it’s a failure…”
The wizard had a faint face. They seemed to know that the emperor was going to get rid of them soon, but they were even more troubled that she was not an evil spirit.
Some of them were in despair, and almost all were lost in grief. Even though they trampled on other people’s lives and turned them into swords.
The murderous intent towards the wizard may have come about at this time.
“…”
Then someone looked at Charlize.
As if he had found something, he approached her as if he had been possessed by her distinctive eyes.
Charlize was alive. She was a human. She was conscious and had an essence. Even though she was a sword, Charlize’s mind was clear. After a moment of silence, he called the others.
“Look at this.”
His finger pointed to Charlize.“It’s too early to jump to conclusions.”
They looked down at Kiera.
The wizards are wearing hoods. And magic. No, evil spirits.
“This is God.”
Why did he say that? On what basis did the word come from?
They seemed to have found something. And soon she held her breath.
“The Birth of God…”
Someone said,
‘Strong memories, though.’
Charlize soon forgot.
Just becoming a sword and killing at the hands of the emperor would crack Charlize’s soul.
The memory, which she didn’t even know was closed, opened up like a ripple. It swept all over Charlize. She was fragmented, merged, torn, and burned.
All those sensations that the average person would never be able to handle. The memories that will never be forgotten, shook Charlize at once.
‘God.’
No, evil spirits.
According to Payne’s theory, what the magic tower was trying to make was an evil spirit. According to Charlize’s memory. She was already the evil God Kiera.
‘Make.’
The shocking truth ran through her body like a shudder. They called Charlize God. Evil spirits.
Said Payne.
“Why are you looking at me so silently? Scary.”
It was a word that returned Charlize’s mind to reality. Payne’s voice trembled, but he acted as if he was determined.
“But the Kiera project has never been successful. Of course, even if it did, it would not have been really completed.”
“What do you mean?”
Charlize’s voice was low and calm. She was very calm in the eyes of others.
“Theoretically, the evil spirit would descend on a vessel called Kiera.”
Payne, who was somewhat embarrassed, returned playfully again, answered.
“This genius wizard, Payne, knows that it’s absolutely impossible. Why? Due to the structure of magical power, the owner of the body is supposed to take the lead unconditionally. Yes. Kiera’s original owner.”
Payne looked happy the whole time he spoke to Charlize.
It seemed more comfortable just to convey this fact.
“If Kiera is completed as a vessel of evil spirits, the only thing that is awake is the consciousness of the original owner.”
“What happens to the evil spirits?”
Charlize asked. When she asked the question, Payne’s mood eased.
He looked incredibly relieved.
At the same time, it was a cold-hearted gold eye.
“The original owner slowly absorbs the evil spirit and becomes an evil spirit. No matter how long it takes, it will be less than fifty years?”
So rest assured! At the pleasant tone of Payne, Charlize reflexively swung her dagger. He managed to avoid it, but as a few strands of his hair were cut off, Payne screamed.
“Ouch! What are you doing! I gave you the information!”
It was the same atmosphere as always.
Payne couldn’t read the darkness beneath Charlize’s eyes.
Because it was too dark.
“It was interesting, but I’m not going to Alperier. So get lost.”
“You’re heartless, but I’ll come again tomorrow.”
Payne smiled with a handsome wink. He was afraid that Charlize would say no, so he said what he had to say and disappeared.
What’s left in the lilac room is a letter from the summoner, who had turned to ashes and burned to the ground. It was only a mixture of smoke on the floor. Even that will be gone soon.
“…”
‘I was the evil spirit.’
Charlize exhaled slowly.
She was already waiting for Payne to come tomorrow. They just had a conversation.
‘I was the evil spirit.’
Words that she couldn’t reach no matter how many times she repeated them. But it wasn’t that it didn’t feel real. She seemed to know.
It was less than fifty years, as Payne said, that Charlize became insensitive to murder. After 50 years of becoming Kiera, she became aloof after that. On everything.
Although she was a human being, she did not lose her callousness somewhere. Like an extraterrestrial being that transcends human beings.
‘I.’
It was enough time to absorb the evil spirit and become an evil spirit.

Kahu looked around the drawing room. Akan sent a messenger to Kahu to invite him. One memory of him came to mind, so he told him to come to hear it.
“What do you want to talk about?”
Kahu looked ahead.
Akan was sitting in front of him.Akan said.
“I’m just trying to let go of my guilt, but… It’s something I couldn’t tell anyone, so I called you. Besides, you’re the one who asked about Charlize first.”
“I’ll just listen.”
Kahu was calm as if he would not interfere with anything more than that.
Akan laughed bitterly.
Akan started talking.
“Neither Dante nor my father knows. I just remember the direct reason I avoided Charlize. It was very strange and bizarre.”
It was a voice filled with regret.
“When I was young, my father caught a monster. He left the corpse at home. You know when a child learns swords, he will try to win by competing with others. I wanted to try it, too.”
Akan seemed to see the scene in front of his eyes. He had gone to see the monster’s corpse. And. There he saw Charlize, a very small girl who had killed her mother. A very pretty child.
“I was having a really hard time at that time. I thought it was her fault that my mother died. So I guess that’s what I saw.”
“What is it?”
Kahu asked calmly. Akan replied with a sigh.
“I saw that child was attracted to the monster’s magic. As if absorbing it, all the energy that flowed out of the dead monster was absorbed into Charlize.”
Something like the energy of evil that gathered in a child’s bracken hands. What Akan saw was black and terrifying, so he had to call her evil.
Charlize can’t even remember when she was very young, and when she was just walking around. It was creepy and scary. Even after receiving all of her dark energy, she was still fine.
The child, who was smiling brightly with affection, came to be embraced in Akan’s arms.
But Akan pushed her away.
“…Monster.”
The first rejection, in which he began to distance himself from Charlize.
Akan spoke to Kahu. Since then, he seems to have treated Charlize as no one. The same goes for Dante, but Akan completely neglected Charlize. It was something he didn’t even remember.
“Energy of evil in a human body. I’ve never heard such a nonsensical sound. In fact, I know it too, young duke. Because I resented her, I remembered her with that sight. I’m pathetic, too.”
Kahu’s eyes were still cold. No, the more he heard the story, the colder he just became.
He didn’t take his time to visit him just to listen to these excuses.
“…You know the sin, so if you know it, don’t sin anymore.”
As if the story was over, Akan remained silent and smiled bitterly. Kahu walked out of the drawing room after being polite.
From the moment he heard the story, he somehow felt bad. As soon as he left the mansion, he felt disgusted.
“Damn it.”
What kind of people are like that? You pushed an innocent child who knew nothing, and you did it because of the evil spirit?
Kahu stopped.
However, it was not a story to be completely overlooked.
Charlize, the emperor’s lover, and Dylan, the ruling tyrant. There was an image that came to mind when he looked at the two.
‘Black and white.’
If Dylan is the light, Charlize is the dark. If people were good, Charlize was evil.
Nevertheless, Charlize is dreamy and fatally beautiful.
‘Useless thought.’
Kahu stopped thinking about continuing for a long time. He still felt bad.
***
The class is over.
“You did a great job today, Your Majesty.”
Charlize closed the book. No matter how confusing it was, she did her job perfectly. Charlize’s tone of explaining politics was uninterrupted and unshakable.
“Thank you for a good class as always.”
Dylan looked at Charlize.
When viewed from such close sunlight, Charlize’s hair was like silver hair. Her mysterious navy blue eyes were mysterious as if they contained the whole world beyond the universe.
How could there be such a beautiful person? She was too enchanting, and every time she exhaled a breath, the world seemed to bow in front of Charlize. He’s dying to take care of herself.
Although Dylan did not clearly notice the change in Charlize, he suddenly got an intuition.
“Master.”
Dylan called Charlize, who was about to go back and rest alone. Charlize looked up at Dylan silently.
Kiss her lips and suppress the urge to covet. No, actually, he wanted to put something in that mouth.
“Whatever you do, I don’t care.”
“…”
“Just don’t stay away from me.”
“That won’t happen, Your Majesty.”
Charlize blinked.
Her eyelids fell like butterflies. Charlize was sincere. However, she wanted to ask.
“However… If that happens, what are you going to do?”
There was a quiet tension in the space.
Dylan, who had been silent for a short time, laughed.
“I’m going crazy.”
A little unfamiliar, yet unawakened possessive desire. Shined hotly in his laughter.
