107 “Crazy In Love”

Cathain slowly looked up at Eleanora, who was also staring at him as she couldn’t believe what she just heard.

‘H-How can he say something like this for his coronation vows?! He must be joking!’

But the seriousness of Cathain’s red eyes told her that he was determined about the vow and didn’t joked about it.

His lips curled up a little but his smile felt terrifying to Eleanora.

Like he has successfully caught his prey.

Cathain stood up but his red eyes kept staring at Eleanora, who was already a half foot smaller in height then him.

“Long live, the sun of our empire!!”

“Long live, his Majesty!!”

The nobles in the hall was cheering for him, but both of them was lost in each others eyes to read the other one.

.....

They couldn’t even bother about the cheering of the nobles and retract their eyes from each other.

“Why are you doing this?”

“Because i need you.”

“No, you don’t need me...”

“Why are you so sure?”

“Because i know the future.”

“Then i will change that future.”

Hearing Cathain’s words, Eleanora hesitated for a moment before she finally asked him in a low voice.

“...Can you?”

“Just trust me.”

“...”

Eleanora retracted her gaze first as she thought that trusting him is the only thing she is unable to do.

But Cathain was still staring at her.

Seeing her dejected face and hesitation to trust him, His gaze become so intense that, it sent shivers down her sprains.

His aura gave the dangerous vibe to her, which made Eleanora felt the urge to ran away from him and found her legs already moving.

Eleanora hurriedly got down from the stairs as she hide behind her father.

Cathain didn’t stopped her either as sooner or later, he is going to take her away.

So he decided to let Alexander feel a little happy before that.

‘Just enjoy your last vacation with your daughter, Father-in-law... you think making her wearing the official knight clothes of your family can make me give up?

Do you really think i care about the public opinion?’

Alexander frowned as he looked at Cathain to warn him to not do anything more stupid things.

But he was pissed off as Cathain ignored his warning gaze and kept looking at Eleanora.

He stood infront of her to keep her to block Cathain’s gaze, which made Cathain feel funny.

The duke looked like a fierce wolf, trying to protect his pup from the danger.

It was because, Alexander knows how crazy the man infront of him can be.

If this man can sleep beside a dead body for three years, keep loving a dead person...

Then he can guess what else this man is capable of when the person is alive and well.

This is also what afraids Alexander the most, what if Cathain goes crazy again for Eleanora?

He had already destroyed the whole empire once after going crazy in the past.

He kept looking for traces of a dead person, transferring his own magic powers to keep her dead body warm and fresh.

Is there anything more crazy then this?

‘I can only hope for the medicine to work, I can’t let him hurt my daughter anymore.’



Cathain faced the crowd as his eyes scanned over the whole hall, before he took the usual vows as every emperor and the whole hall started to cheer for him again.

After some moment when Cathain was busy talking with some nobles, he suddenly frowned.

‘Doesn’t the duke says all mens are dogs and keeps them away from her? then why is he letting this blonde dog approach his daughter now?!’

He narrowed his eyes as he saw someone standing beside Eleanora and greet her.

‘Ah, am sad. My father-in-law understimates me... My wife keeps running away and attract flies from everywhere she goes.’

Where, Eleanora who didn’t noticed the burning smell of someone’s heart, she kept talking happily with Cedrick.

She never expected that Cedrick would be in the same squadron as their family doesn’t get along.

Although she hates the duke and his sister who will appear soon, she never disliked Cedrick.

Because the he never did anything wrong to her.

He was always polite and respectful in her past life.

Now that both of them will spent a long time together in the battlefield, it would be better to become a little familiar with each other.

This was why, Eleanora was talking with him and Alexander didn’t stopped her either.

Only watched from afar.

Cedrick Raven was different from his father, this is something that Alexander knew very clearly because of his last life.

If he was like his father, he wouldn’t have frequently visited Alexander in the prison and look after him.

After Eleanora’s dead, Cedrick had changed completely.

He colluded with Alexander to take down his father and destroy the Raven duchy.

At first, Alexander didn’t believed him.

Why would someone want to destroy their own family?

But right then, Cedrick took off his shirt to show Alexander the whipped marks on his body which shocked Alexander greatly.

“If this reason is not enough, then is avenging my mother’s dead and making my little sister doing all this sinister works enough reason for you to believe me?”

“...Your mother?”

“My mother didn’t died from childbirth... that man forcedly married my mother because she had high dark powers from Rua Kingdom.

When the first born me didn’t had any dark powers and the second born was a girl, he killed my mother and threw away my little sister.

He kept beating me to vent his anger when he couldn’t take you down or take the throne.

But when he found Jennifer again and realised she had inherited the dark powers from our mother which could control mind and emotions of a person, he manipulated her to remove the empress and destroy the Dalton duchy.”

Alexander was silent for a moment before he finally opened his mouth to speak again.

“He was also behind the attack on my duchy while i was away 25 years ago, right?”

“Yes.”

“Did he also poisoned my daughter?”

“...Yes, but his main target was always the emperor. He is completely poisoned now. His mentality has already broken down, because...

She used her all magic on him before dying, which broke Jennifer’s dark magic control from him. This is why he is going crazy.

My father used my sister and the emperor to get rid of the Dalton’s.”

Alexander didn’t spoke anything but kept staring at the prisons cell, while Cedrick left as he felt someone else approaching.

He came here without informing anyone, so he can’t get caught.

“I hope you will consider about it.”

Cedrick spoke but Alexander didn’t replied. He was lost in thoughts.

‘Even in the end, you thought for him... Why, Ele?

You could escape using your powers, our duchy is already destroyed... i would happily die in your stead if that would make you live.’

Alexander sighed heavily, every breathe he takes in feels like a burden to him.

.....

‘I could escape... but Dalton’s will never bow down and escape, this is what you and mom taught me, father.’

‘We shouldn’t have taught you that...’

Alexander knew he was dreaming again, he often sees and talks with her like this.

‘I helped him, because i wanted him to see the truth, father. I wanted him to suffer what i went through.

I want them to see my face and remember what they did to me till the end of their life.

They can be forgiven by us but they won’t be able to forget their crimes.

This is their retribution from me, Father.’

‘Am happy to hear that... i thought you would get soft hearted and forgive him.’

‘I won’t... but i can give everyone a chance to change.’

‘If i get a another chance, i will make sure too kill him first before he harms you.’

Hearing him, Eleanora chuckled a little. Alexander also couldn’t help but curve up his mouth a little.

‘How’s my grandchildren’s?’

‘They are really eager to meet you.’

‘Me too. I also wanna see your mother so much.’

‘...Don’t be sad anymore, daddy. You will meet your daughter and grandchildren’s soon.’

‘I hope so.’

Alexander woke up from his dream as he felt someone kneeling infront of him.

It was no one else, but the queen Jennifer, who came to ask for his help like her brother.





But Jennifer and Cedrick alone was not enough to take down Duke Raven, who was the born schemer.

They soon got caught and Jennifer wanted to help them escape, when Duke Richardo offered his help to turn back the time.

Back to the present~

“So you can even make a person fly if your magic power is suitable with them?!”

Eleanora asked in amusement and Cedrick nodded.

He had Wind type magic powers.

So he could control the air and even help the people to fly if their mana was compatible with him.

“What is so special about flying? I can even burn down any person. Do you want to see it? My empress?”

“...”

Eleanora become irritated as Cathain intruppted her conversation, while he spoke as he looked at Cedrick.

‘So if you don’t get lost right now, i will burn you down! You blonde dog!’

“Your Majesty...”

Eleanora felt all the nobles curious gazes on her as Cathain called her the empress.

She didn’t wanted to draw anymore unnecessary attentions so she called him politely to maintain a little distance between them.

“She is usually very shy. Am very thankful to the young duke to keep her accompany instead of me.”

“...”

‘what is he trying to implying?!’

Everyone had the same question in their mind. What did the emperor meant by this?

Was he indirectly telling the young duke to get lost as he has completed his task?

“Your Majesty, what are you saying?!”

Eleanora whispered to Cathain in a low voice, which gave him a opportunity to show off.

He bent down to reach Eleanora’s ears as he whispered to her too.

“What I really wanted to say was, I want to make him disappear from your sight right this instant.

I don’t like it when you smile like that at other guys, except me.”

Eleanora gulped as Cathain’s hot breathe fall on her ears, making it itchy.

So, she spoke in a irritated voice as she tried to move a little away.

“Have you gone crazy from overworking and sorrow?”

Cathain chuckled at her words as he took his mouth more closer to her ear and whispered in a husky voice.

“Noo... it’s you who have made me go crazy in love, My empress.”
