Even though it was a deep night, Edellis couldn't sleep and wandered through the room.
I told the maid that I was too tired and want to sleep early. And since she said she wished it wasn't noisy outside, the knights won't be able to visit tonight except for regular patrols.
After a while, when a small knock was heard, she couldn't stand it and quietly opened the door.
"Lehan!"
She couldn't said loudly, but it was a voice that didn't hide her welcome.
As soon as Lehan carefully entered the room, he immediately closed the door. Quietly to close the door, Lehan opened his mouth with a serious expression.
"My lady, would you really be okay?"
"Isn't it hurt?"
"It won't hurt."
While saying so, Lehan pulled out a dagger with a green-blue handle in his arms with a firm expression.
Edellis didn't want to be stabbed, as in the book. It was enough to have already seen 'Edelis Cronard' stabbed in the book.
'But why are you taking out the knife?'
If the fate flows as seen in the book, I didn't want to be struck by the Emperor before becoming the Empress.
"My lady, is it okay to be really dishonorable?"
Edellis was concerned about the dagger in Lehan's hand.
I doubted that Lehan would stab me, but his hand while holding the dagger, he glanced at me.
"Are you using that method in the end?"
Edellis quietly closed her eyes and raised her face, with her face frowned deeply to endure the pain to come.
"It's okay to open your eyes, my lady won't feel the pain."
The words were a little weird.
'I won't feel pain' meant that 'someone other than me' would be hurt.
Still frowning and barely opening one eye, Lehan walked and approached the bed without giving her a chance to speak.
He raised one knee onto the bed, rolled up the blanket, and cut his palm with a dagger.
