I Tamed a Tyrant and Ran Away-Chapter 69

Dylan was agitated.

She saw him up close just once, but he was different from the horribly perfect man.

He couldn’t hide the shaking at that moment. Charlize looked at Dylan gently.

‘What’s different from him?’

The biggest difference with Dylan today was his feelings for Charlize.

Of course, it was right since he relied on Charlize and she raised him to be colored.

As intended, Dylan was shaken by Charlize fully. However, it was also different from the reaction that Charlize wanted somehow.

To be exact.

Dylan ascended the throne because of Charlize, but at the same time, he lost his original indifference because of Charlize.

Because Dylan’s cruelest side was indifference. Charlize was curious.

“Then can I have it?”

Dylan asked in reverse.

Those eyes were very different from the indifference she had seen in ‘Magic Sword Kiera’.

For the first time, Dylan used informal language. Even though he is still sitting down and acting like a calm disciple.

He seemed like a man ready to have Charlize at any time. Born to be a ruler.

Because he had to live with things, he had a great desire for free will. Is it because Dylan wasn’t aware of this?

He soon softened the mood.

“For staying by my side.”

“…”

“It always feels like a miracle.”

A faint smile. It was a neat finish, so Charlize looked at Dylan.

Dylan was immersed in the test again, as if the tension flowing in the air was an illusion.

Before she knew it, she was holding her breath. Charlize had to breathe consciously.

Opera with family was fun.

Looking at the delighted Duchess, Kahu realized that a lot had changed.

‘The center of the regression is Charlize.’

Unlike Kahu, who was confused, she was firm from the start.

But Kahu didn’t know where to start investigating Charlize.

There were too many things that happened after regression. All the information about Charlize was after regression.

‘I don’t know her motive.’

Why did Charlize overthrow the dynasty of Dietrich and establish the dynasty of Dylan?

And why led him on the road towards the destruction of the empire.

There were no signs of any casualties yet, but it was an empire that was slowly dying.

‘For what?’

Charlize, who went missing at the age of 17, did not return until Kahu turned 30. One might speculate that she was kidnapped by the imperial family, but there was no reason.

Technically speaking, there was Charlize’s swordsmanship. Charlize was rumored to be a genius, even if she was only in the Grand Duchy.

‘But if it’s swordsmanship.’

There were many outstanding people. Like Akan and Dante.

And beautiful looks. But for the Emperor to need Charlize. The emperor at the time of her disappearance, the now-deposed former emperor, hated young women.

The emperor’s taste in sex is a woman in her late 20s and older with a clear curve of her body.

‘In the first place, what’s the point of having a grudge enough to do this?’

She dyed the whole empire black.

Watching Charlize, he had a feeling that this was just the beginning.

‘I have no choice but to go and find out.’

Kahu moved.

When he told Charlize he was going to dig it up, he was so determined for it.

So Kahu headed to Ronan’s Grand Duchy.

He had to grab at least a clue. Ronan was the only clue to know about Charlize before regression.

Of course, the inspection of the Grand Duchy itself was not good. Almost every imperial aristocrat knew about the grandmaster.

‘Did they say that she was responsible for killing the Grand Duchess?’

He always felt a sense of distance whenever he ran into Akan in the Imperial Knights. Charlize won’t like it when she hears the news.

Above all, it was the house of the person who broke off the engagement. It was also a family of the grandmaster. It was a visit that would not have anything to say even if it was misinterpreted.

‘It may seem a little strange, but it can’t be helped.’

It was obviously rude to visit without making an appointment.

Because Kahu was a high-ranking aristocrat.

Kahu was soon escorted to the drill hall.

Akan and Dante, who were practicing swordsmanship, put down their swords and came to Kahu.

“I came here because I wanted to hear about the grandmaster.”

The Grand Duke was nowhere to be seen.

To be honest, Kahu came prepared to be rejected. Surprisingly, Akan and Dante nodded their heads at his words.

“I’m glad you walked all the way here.”

Dante said to Kahu.

“I’ll tell the servants to prepare for the reception, so please wait in the drawing-room for a moment.”

Unlike Akan, Dante spoke with honorifics to Kahu.

“Thank you.”

Kahu bowed his head politely.

He followed the servant to the drawing-room first, carefully examining the interior of the Grand Duchy.

‘This is the place.’

Where Charlize was born and raised. If there was a clue, it would be here.

A simple tea was placed in front of Kahu, who arrived at the drawing-room. Akan and Dante, who had just finished training, entered one after another.

When it comes to Charlize, it’s always been Ronan’s top priority now.

Akan sat at the head of the table. Dante was in the same seat as Kahu.

“Okay.”

It was Akan who started the topic.

“…What do you want to know about Charlize?”

Although they were holding high positions, they didn’t see each other very often. For a moment, there was an awkward atmosphere in the air.

Kahu asked without showing any signs.

“I want to know about the grandmaster.”

Charlize was 15 years old when she was the prince’s teacher. She must have returned to some point before she was 15 years old.

‘Was she around 14 when she was rumored to be Ronan’s wicked woman?’

Before regression, the original Charlize could not make eye contact with people. She looked at her family like she was thirsty for affection.

‘I don’t know when she started to change, but it looked like before the regression…’

It was when she was 13. He knew it because he heard that Charlize Ronan participated in an event between aristocrats.

At least after the age of 13, before the age of 15 is the story of the point of return. Anyway, before 13, it was the same as Charlize before returning.

He doesn’t know the reason for her return, but if he knew about the original Charlize, he thought he might have a clue about her intention of destroying the current empire.

So, Kahu first asked a question that would have a variety of answers.

“What was the grandmaster like when she was young?”

It’s still her family though. At least they would have watched her. They know everything.

Akan became quiet at Kahu’s question, and Dante looked back on the past.

“…She was a quiet kid.”

Dante replied.

In any case, Dante was the kindest to Charlize among Ronan’s three men.

If it’s fraternal memories. Dante would be the deepest, so Akan remained silent.

“…Charlize.”

Dante murmured.

Unlike now, which is indifferent and cold, she smiled a lot.

Tears were welling in her eyes, but she tried to forcefully smile and followed him. 6-year-old Charlize, who gave him a Joker card, saying it was the strongest she had.

She couldn’t help but love him. She was a child whose innocent and pure heart was expressed only by affection for her family.

“She was a kid who tried to laugh somehow, and was happy even with a single look in her eyes.”

Kahu waited more patiently, but that was all Dante answered.

‘It’s a superficial answer than I thought.’

Usually, when you ask about a child like this, it’s the most impressive. Talk about something your child particularly likes.

‘Is there any special reason?’

Dante was reluctant to elaborate. No, it did seem more like something he couldn’t elaborate on.

Akan didn’t even have the memory like Dante. He only moistened his dry lips.

It’s Akan who used to say harsh words that he would never look up to her.

Akan’s eyes trembled for a moment.

Frowning to open his brow for a moment, Kahu asked something else.

“Was there anything that grandmaster liked or hated, or did she expert at something when she was young?”

“Expert…”

Dante clouded the end of his tongue at the question. Kahu saw Dante make eye contact with Akan.

“Sword…”

Akan answered with only one word.

“Last time, didn’t you say that the grandmaster didn’t have a sword teacher?”

“She liked knights, so wouldn’t she like the sword?”

Akan said confidently. Kahu kept his mouth shut.

Dante said as if he remembered it with difficulty.

“Expert at, singing?”

“Ah, have you ever heard the grandmaster sing?”

“It’s not like that…”

“…Then what?”

Dante blinked slowly.

None of the three had ever heard Charlize sing.

“It’s just that she has a good voice… Shouldn’t she be good at singing?”

Did he say groundless talk? Kahu was dumbfounded.

However, Dante truly did not know Charlize’s preferences or tastes. To put it bluntly, the only thing she hated was ‘Blackshaw Flower’.

“I think she said that she hates flowers…”

Dante said confidently.

Akan only made the atmosphere heavy without answering even that.

‘She hates flowers?’

Kahu often saw Charlize happy to smell the flowers. Far from hating flowers, she liked them.

They didn’t even know this basic information. How indifferent were they in the first place?

Kahu was even more surprised to see Ronan’s brothers in trouble.

Dante was slowly shocked.

Kahu, who had calmed down his emotions, asked calmly.

“…Then, what did the grandmaster do in her childhood at the Grand Duchy?”

“…”

The answer didn’t come out immediately.

When Charlize was a child, Akan focused only on swordsmanship training. So he doesn’t know.

Charlize had a stronger presence in Dante’s memory. And in his memory…

“She just, stayed in her room.”

Dante answered unintentionally and soon put on a struck dumb face.

‘Because it was a sin for Charlize to come out of the room…’

All the servants treated Charlize hard to Ronan’s neglect. Kahu’s facial expression gradually hardened.

‘She was just staying in her room? That’s what her childhood was all about?’

Kahu’s voice subsided.

“Do you remember anything else?”

“That…”

“When did the grandmaster learn the sword?”

“…We don’t know.”

Weren’t they the family that should know about Charlize the best?

Kahu came to find out about Charlize’s motives. But the pets they kept seemed to know better than this.

‘Isn’t she their daughter and sister?’

It was unbelievably strange. The use of the word family itself did not seem appropriate.

Neither Akan nor Dante knew completely about Charlize.

They only replied that she was quiet when she was young, that she was just staying in her room, and they thought that she was good at singing.

‘They said they had never heard of her.’

Didn’t they reply that she seemed to hate the flowers she liked?

Kahu didn’t know what the ‘angry’ feeling was. There was little to be angry about because she had always been upheld.

But even though it’s not his business.

Charlize must have forgotten everything in the past.

It had nothing to do with Kahu, but he was strangely angry.

Kahu looked at the Ronan brothers. Akan and Dante looked pale.

Kahu asked for the last time.

Even though he knew it was rude, Kahu’s voice became cold.

“…Was your family in harmony?”
