CAN I GO BACK ?
CHAPTRE 38
Killian takes Alexia to the clothing store, they are unlikely to use fancy clothes just for sightseeing. Moreover, Killian who is the new king, can make a scene in the community who see it.
After they wear ordinary folk clothes.
Killian took Alexia outside, of course it wasn't a crowded place. Just an ordinary village, that village was on a plateau.
...----------------...
Galenos village by night.
Killian held Alexia's hand. Because tonight's Lantern Festival, the whole community is celebrating. There are a lot of traders there.
" Where are you taking me? " Ask Alexia.
Killian answered Alexia's question.
" We'll see the lantern. It must be in a high place. " Say Killian.
Alexia continued to notice Killian she was astonished by Killian's behavior. Alexia felt that she felt strange and unpleasant.
| What's wrong with you. | Thought Alexia.
Killian knows that Alexia actually thinks about her a lot.
| There's no way he didn't think of me. | Thought Killian.
They were now at the highest peak, Killian asked Alexia to sit beside him.
" Sit down, we'll see the lanterns here. " Say Killian.
Alexia without a second thought, she immediately sat down next to Killian.
The festival began to run.
The two of them sat side by side, The lanterns began to scatter everywhere, burning with brightly colored flames.
However, Killian did not care about it all, he was only interested in Alexia's face.
With eyes staring at Alexia, Killian thought.
| Actually I want to know what your reaction is when I die later. It would be better if you smiled happily.| Thought Killian.
| Yes, he should smile, because he is going home. | Thought Killian was bitter.
Killian continued to stare, and looked at Alexia. Never turn anywhere. His gaze was full of hope and sincerity. Very sincere sincerity more than anyone, and a lot of hope.
The hope of where she can live with Alexia, even dead she wants to stay in Alexia's lap.
Where he breathes, walks, eats, laughs, and other lives.
Where he died, dying and disappearing like a foam. Even in hell and in heaven.
She.wants to be with Alexia.
" Are you enjoying the lanterns? " Task Alexia who was still looking at the lantern without turning around.
Alexia continued to stare towards the flying Lantern, her slightly red eyes, now mixed with the orange glow of the Lantern.
" It's so beautiful......
Alexia muttered with sparkling eyes that kept seeing the lanterns.
" Yes.it's beautiful...... " Killian answered Alexia with her eyes still fixed on Alexia.
| Very beautiful, so that I am comfortable and can not turn away. Even though he doesn't want me. | Thought Killian.
" You should enjoy this time a lot. Even if I come back later. " Said Alexia while turning towards Killian.
' Uhukk.......Uhukk......'
Killian suddenly coughed up blood. The thick blood was red, but it was in small amounts.
Even though a little bit of it was very painful for Killian.
Killian grimaced her chest strongly as if enduring the pain.
That made Alexia panic.
" Killian?!! " Call Alexia who sees Killian spitting blood out of her mouth.
| Shit!! why does it have to happen here. | Thought Killian was upset.
" Are you really sick? " Tanya Alexia panicked.
Killian was still grimacing her chest and she wiped all the blood left from her mouth.
Then he spoke like a healthy person, without getting sick.
" I'm fine. It's just a side effect of my strength. " Take Killian with a smile.
Alexia could not believe it, she then asked again as she was dissatisfied with Killian's reply.
" Are you sure? but—
Alexia could not continue speaking, as Killian cut herself off.
" We'd better go home, you don't have to worry. I'm doing fine. " Say Killian grabbed Alexia's hand and she pulled Alexia away.
Alexia pulled Killian back, she easily pulled Killian, as the one in tow was someone weak with no strength.
" What's up? " Tanya Killian was not weak, but she looked pale.
" You're lying......" Alexia said slowly.
' Haahh....' Killian sighed.
".......What do you mean Alexia?..." Killian.
Killian was silent not speaking.
" Answer me!! Are you sick?!! " Ask Alexia in a high voice, as if to make sure.
" You don't have to worry, it's just the effect of my power. " Killian was adamant that it was the effect of her strength.
" Reply I'm honest. " Say Alexia with a serious look.
Killian squinted and he spoke.
" I always tell the truth, unlike you who always lie. " Say Killian with a bitter smile.
Alexia felt impaled by Killian's words, she could not refute his words. Alexia always lied to Killian.
In fact, Alexia often made promises to Killian, and it was never Alexia's edge.
" Well, if you don't answer, I'll find her myself. " Said Alexia while leaving Killian.
| How hard you try, it won't happen. Because I'll never open my mouth. In fact, the one who knows this will not let me open his mouth. | Thought Killian.
The one who knows Killian's pain is the Great Witch. He was the only one who knew that.
Alexia recalled the words she said to Yustaf.
— I don't want to deal with him anymore.
— Since he left, all the business about him is none of my business anymore and stop asking about him.
| Ahh. Just today alone, for so on I will no longer deal with Killian. | Thought Alexia.
" Well, I won't force you to talk. Whether you get sick or not is none of my business anymore. You're enough to just return me. " Said Alexia while leaving.
| Sorry, it's for your own good Killian. I shouldn't be in this world. My presence is only a barrier to the female lead. | Thought Alexia.
Killian just clenched her strong hand hearing Alexia's words.
...----------------...
4 Days later.
Yustaf workspace.
Yustaf is writing a letter, it's for Killian. He wants to tell Killian that Alexia is getting engaged.
" Yes, it would be better if His Majesty the king knew that Alexia would be engaged. " Gumam Yustaf wrote a letter.
Yustaf felt Alexia was too rushed to make a decision.
Ever since Killian left, Yustaf has always been watching her sister, knowing that Alexia misses Killian a lot. But, Yustaf had no idea why her sister was hiding her longing.
To be sure, Yustaf did not know that his sister's spirit was no longer there, and the one who kept his sister's body was someone else.
What if one day Yustaf finds out that the one who occupies his sister's body is someone else. Will Yustaf accept that reality. Or don't.
It depends on itself.
...----------------...
Royal palace.
The king's special workspace.
Same, who is Killian's bodyguard and personal aide, reports that the King of Shaman wants to visit.
" Your Majesty, there's something I should report. " Say Same.
Killian seems to be busy with her work. He was completing an important document, so that later Lais could easily fill his throne.
" What's up? " Tanya Killian's.
Same explains that King Shaman wants to visit.
" King Shaman wanted to visit, he sent a letter. And I've read it. " Say Same.
Same was allowed to read letters coming from other kingdoms. Because he's Killian's aide.
" Why is he visiting? " Tanya Killian's.
Killian feels that he has never been in contact with the Shaman kingdom.
" In the letter, he said, that he wanted to visit an old friend who was here. If you allow it, he will come in 5 days, otherwise he will not force it. " Say Same.
Killian thought who that person was.
| Who is King Shaman's friend? a commoner or a noble? | Killian wonders.
" Your Majesty, will you allow it? " Tanya Same.
Killian thought again.
| If it's Shaman kingdom. It would be better if you allowed it. It would be useful if Lamond's kingdom was good friends with Shaman. Lais will easily advance this kingdom. | Thought Killian.
" I'll allow it. When will he come here
Killian does not know that King Shaman is the one who will become Alexia's fiancee.
If he knew that, Killian's heart would hurt, he wouldn't even allow King Shaman to visit.
" I will send a letter to the Shaman kingdom. " Say Same.
" You can go. " Say Killian.
" May you live a long life. " Same said as he left.
" hey.......Long live. The vain prayer. " Say Killian while rubbing her face rough.
