I’m A Doll, But The Tyrant Is Obsessed With Me - Chapter 62

Chapter 62

Jennifer, who was looking at the envelope with nothing written on it, roughly opened the envelope.

“You are needlessly careful.”

There was a blank sheet of paper in it. When she lit a candle and put the piece of paper close to it, letters appeared from a blank letterhead.

Partner…

It was clear that the sky was also helping her.

Jennifer glanced at the contents of the letter and raised an eyebrow.

“You do quite a good job.”

One month…

It was time earned by the partner. During that timeframe, she must somehow capture the Emperor’s heart.

“Should I use it after all?”

Even though it was resentful and hurt her pride for her beauty not to work, she didn’t have much time since she had to mobilize all available means and methods, or she may never have a chance again.

“…Because you tried to kill me.”

Yes. If her beauty didn’t work anyway, it would be the same if another woman came along. So, this was not a loss.

“By the way, the Ielro’s girl is annoying.”

Why did he leave that girl alive and kept her hostage when he threw her out so harshly…?

“I want to see for myself.”

They said that she was an illegitimate child, so it wouldn’t be difficult.

“Regardless, how did you approach the Emperor?”

How should she approach him so he could look back on her…?

After the conference, the arrest of the Tierra delegation was lifted. Entrance to the main palace, its gardens and backyards, and Declan’s private training ground were prohibited.

“I don’t think you need to do this.”

“You said we should check the books in the library.”

There were some inconveniences in researching books related to Epist in earnest. It was not just reading a book — it was a data survey — so, if you have any questions after reading this book, you should look for another book.

The number of books brought from the library through the attendant was limited each time, and it was too cumbersome to send the attendant each time. Because of that, when I mentioned that I wanted to work in a library…

I stared blankly at the empty library.

“It’s mine anyway, so why do you care?”

“Anyway, other people may need the data.”

“In addition to the Imperial Palace, there is a library. In the first place, there will be all kinds of books in each noble’s residence, so there is no need to worry.”

Of course, it was. Nonetheless, how inconvenient would it be for the officials working in the Imperial Palace…?

‘I am thankful for his consideration… Still, this is a bit too much, isn’t it?’

With that thought, I let out a small sigh as I glanced at the paperwork that Declan stacked opposite me.

“Your Majesty, you should see your work in the office.”

“But, you’re here?”

“The entrance is also controlled here, and Hans and the captain of the guard are there, so what could be dangerous?”

“Have you already forgotten that you were kidnapped while you were with me?”

Declan frowned at my words as if he didn’t want to think about it.

“It was a banquet back then.”

Wasn’t the situation different from back then when there were many people coming and going and now when not even a single ant can get close…?

“The ministers who visit Your Majesty will be inconvenient and have to move documents every time…”

“Erica.”

As I mumbled in regret, Declan called me softly. Hearing that, I raised my eyes and made eye contact with him.

“Your safety is the most important to me.”

There was nothing to say about it, so I just rolled my eyes awkwardly.

“When I’m away from you, things don’t work out. Being here is a way to help many people.”

“…I see.”

In the end, I quickly resigned, as I did not seem to be able to change his decision by any means.

“So, is there any progress on Epist?”

Declan quickly changed the subject when I agreed.

“Well, not yet. I need to find the meaning of these words.”

I pointed to Kefiena, Namos, and Hodein written on the paper. Even though I asked Mazvin the meaning of this word just in case, there was no response.

“Have you looked at the ancient language?”

“Yes. Though there are no similar letters.”

“Um, is it as expected, sacred words…?”

“…Sacred words?”

“Yes. It was said that in the past, revelations from God were written in words.”

“Oh, did you say that only the Pope can read it?”

At that, he nodded his head slightly.

“Now, no one knows the word.”

Declan raised the corners of his lips scornfully before continuing, “Since it was engraved on a sacred object, I think there is a high possibility of that.”

It was a sensible thing to say.

‘What if his guess is correct…?’

Suddenly, I remembered what I had read in the temple material not long ago. Even though only the Pope could read the sacred words, God’s revelations must be recorded, so they were recorded in the language of the world.

“Your Majesty, I think we should go to the Great Temple.”

The revelations were kept in the secret archives of the Great Temple and could not be read except by the Pope and the Cardinals.

‘There is only one way to go directly, but the Emperor Declan will not be able to move easily.’

Moreover, it was even more problematic when Duke Otien and Jennifer were here.

“Then, we can go.”

A refreshing answer came back to the point that my worries were overshadowed.

“Your Majesty is the Emperor.”

“So, what’s the matter…?”

I was at a loss for words at the very carefree words.

“If government affairs are paralyzed if I am absent, I cannot be called a Burgundy who commands the continent.”

Declan began to think about what reason to visit the Great Temple and how to use the pope.

“What if Duke Otien does anything when you’re vacant from the Imperial Palace?”

As if my question was funny, he grinned before replying, “He values ​​honor and cause. He can’t turn the palace over while I’m away.”

“That’s something you don’t know.”

How insidious was Duke Otien?

“Isn’t there Mason? As long as we have Duke Buccleuch and Duke Caster, he can’t go wild.”

Seeing him speak confidently, my anxiety subsided a little.

“Well, on the way to and from the Great Temple, he can try to kill me.”

However, the next words raised concerns again.

“No, it’s not something to talk about so easily…!”

No matter how confident he was in his military power, this wasn’t something to say lightly like this. Why is he talking about life-threatening events like children’s jokes…?

Even though he was being criticized, Declan only smiled.

“Just as Your Majesty worries about my well-being, I also worry about Your Majesty.”

Although the desire to be human was bubbling like a chimney, it was less important than Declan. It was because of him that I had a desire to become a person. Thinking that, I glanced at him and stepped closer.

A smile formed on his lips as I walked back and forth on the doll’s short legs.

“There must be a way to find out without going to the temple instead.”

“It feels good that you care.”

His big hand caressed my head and spoke again, “Still, I want you to trust me a little more. I am the one who survived until now. I’m not weak.”

“I’m still worried. I have nothing but Your Majesty.”

At the last words, there was a ripple in his green eyes resembling green plains.

“…I want you to become a person and stay by my side.”

When I gazed at his gently burning eyes, my body seemed to heat up.

“So, this is important to me as well.”

He lowered his head slowly, getting closer and closer.

Kiss.

As the lips on my forehead stayed for a moment and then left, my heart fluttered as the place where his lips touched became hot.

“Leave it to me. I’ll find a way to get there safely.”

My heart fluttered looking at the deep eyes.

‘…Is it possible that he has the same feeling as me?’

Was he looking at me like the opposite sex, not as a comrade who shared memories of Chloe…?

At that moment, faint anticipation spread quietly in my chest.

“Your Majesty.”

The eyes that had been entangled in Mason’s voice were scattered.

“Count Rossien has asked Your Majesty for a private audience.”

Count Rossien was the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

“What brings him here?”

“It is said that there was an accident in the process of transporting the tribute sent from Ielro.”

“You can handle it.”

“I said so, but because there was a problem that had to be approved directly by Your Majesty.”

At that, Declan gave a displeased expression. To save time, I have to let him go alone, but I had a bad feeling last night.

“Let’s go together.”

Declan reluctantly left the library when he got up thinking that we would go together soon. However, the conversation with Count Rossien took longer than expected.

“Your Majesty, may I go to the library first?”

It was the words I brought out because there was no black smoke to be seen from the Count or around him.

“Then, let’s go together.”

Still annoyed, he got up without hesitation. But, because Count Rossien still had work to do, he desperately held on to Declan.

Wrinkling his face, he was unable to do this or that.

“You look busy, so I will be there first. Please, finish it before coming.”

The thought of reducing the time I spent in the library as much as possible made me impatient.

“It’s dangerous to be alone.”

“You’ve given the library a restraining order. I’ll be fine.”

At my words, Declan didn’t respond as though he had lost his mind.

“I have a lot to investigate, so I’m in a hurry. Please, allow it?”

In the end, he sighed when I asked with a desperate expression and opened his mouth, “…Never go out of the library.”

Declan hesitated again and again, and then he turned to Liam and Hans to look out for me. Immediately, the escort knights lined up behind the doll drew people’s attention.

As I was thinking about that, I went into the doll as I was hugged comfortably, when I saw someone approaching…

Having identified who it was, I stretched out my second finger to Hans.

‘Beware.’

The meaning of the second finger was ‘beware.’
