I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast

Chapter 25

The midday light fell through the center of the ceiling of the Sun Palace.

A large lunch was set up in the place slightly away from the glare of the sun.

The Emperor spoke while looking at Eleon.

Its like a miracle.

Emperor Markis Oder Constance was over sixty years old.

The emperors eyes were filled with emotions he could not control.

Why didnt you come to the palace earlier?

My eyes have been healed recently and it could be very dangerous if I see the light.

The Emperor looked very disappointed.

Still, I would be the last to know that my only nephews eyes are healed.

I am sorry.

By the way, what about Sabiel?

When the Emperor asked this, Empress Seraphina wiped her lips with a napkin.

The Crown Prince said it was difficult to come because he was busy.

He is always busy.

Empress Seraphinas face hardened as the emperor murmured as if it was unreasonable.

The Knight Commander of the Empire is back. Its been bothering me all this time that I couldnt properly congratulate you on your victory in the Seven Years War.

That is in the past. Dont worry about it, Your Majesty.

The Emperor smiled generously at him.

Ask me whatever you want. The Seven Years war is the Seven Years war, and the Grand Dukes recovery from his illness will be celebrated separately.

As if he had been waiting for these words, Eleon spoke.

Please allow me to marry.

What?

The eyes of the Emperor and the Empress widened at the same time.

A man who has returned from the battlefield and stayed in his residence all this time. Are you saying that there is a woman to discuss marriage with?

Empress Seraphina asked, unable to contain her curiosity.

Yes, thats correct.

The Emperor smiled even more insistently at Eleon, who seemed to have lost his mind.

Ho ho. I will allow it.

If I want to marry any woman, Your Majesty, dont object, just give me your permission. Promise me.

I will do anything for you.

Then Eleon could sit comfortably in front of the Emperor, who was smiling so joyfully, and the Empress, who was sitting next to him, made a grim expression.

Black hair and red eyes. I cant believe his eyes are healed.

Seraphina clutched at the hem of her dress under her table.

It is an ominous eye color that threatens the place of my son Sabiel.

When Sabiel was first born with blue eyes, people were not so resentful.

Even when she gave birth to the second and third princes, she thought that she only had to give birth to an Oder.

But, a few years later, Princess Lev, the Emperors sister, gave birth to Eleon.

It was the first time that a child with the characteristics of an Oder was born outside the immediate family of the Imperial Family.

After that, Seraphinas hell began.

The misfortune she had forgotten while Eleon lost his sight seemed to creep into her body.

Please make this an imperial edict.

Eleon spoke again.

Imperial edict? What do you mean by that

It means that I want you to write down exactly what you just said about my marriage and make it an imperial edict.

Empress Seraphina shook her head while the Emperor laughed.

Is she a foreign slave or a prisoner of war?

Otherwise, it is necessary to ask for permission without objecting to any woman he wants.

Its fine if a lady from a humble family or any woman becomes the Grand Duchess.

Sabiel is also preparing for an important wedding.

She hadnt even spoken to the emperor yet, but since Eleon spoke first, that was also a good thing.

Do whatever you want to do right now.

Empress Seraphina smiled.

Ho ho ho. It looks like we will be making a decree instead of having lunch.

As soon as lunch was over, Eleon followed the Emperor to his office and obtained the edict he wanted.

This is enough.

It might be difficult to make her legally his Grand Duchess.

Eleon hasnt been able to confess to her yet, but before he finds her, he intends to prepare everything he can.

Now I only have one chance left in my hand.

The achievements of the Seven Years War deserve high praise.

The territories that he conquered for the Empire now amounted to 1/3 of the entire Empire.

Even before Eleon returned to the capital, the prevailing opinion was that he should be awarded half of the territory acquired in the Seven Years War.

When he lost his sight and was unable to attend victory celebrations, everything got out of hand.

But Eleon wasnt disappointed at all. And it was because of this one edict, that will resolve Ronas unclear status.

It was more valuable to him than the vast territory where he now had to work and where foreign people lived.

Eleon remembered that Rona had to work for him because she couldnt provide an identification card.

After thinking about Rona for a moment, Eleon sighed briefly.

How can she not have one?

A lot happened in the meantime.

First, he sent Bernard to the estate.

Eleon should have gone instead, but he was who managed the estate all the time when he lost his sight.

And Bernard solved the Grand Dukes tasks, one by one. There were important matters that Bernard could not decide on behalf of the owner.

On the other hand, Cedric commissioned an errand guild to find Rona.

But no one had ever seen such a woman as if she had evaporated and disappeared.

There is no maid with her hair color.

Rona used to meticulously tuck her hair into bonnets commonly worn by maids.

it would be difficult to find someone with only one particular hair color.

But Eleon couldnt put up a flyer. That was because of Ronas unclear identity.

Eleon did not know if she was in danger somewhere if it became known that he was looking for an unknown woman.

Rona will be treated like prey with a bounty on her head.

Something kept bothering him.

Maybe there is something wrong with the preconditions, he couldnt find Rona.

Eleon was walking down the long corridor from the Sun Palace to the main castle, thinking about various things.

On the other side, he saw women walking to the Sun Palace, accompanied by maids.

* * * * *

Eleon!

Elysia felt her heart pounding.

The sun shone through the majestic marble columns. Eleon who was walking in the center looked much bigger than she remembered.

Standing tall with his shoulders extended, he walks proudly through the lights.

In the front room of the Sun Palace, which was lavishly decorated with gold decorations on white marble, nothing seemed to shine brighter than Eleon.

He no longer bends down and waits for Elysias touch.

As perfect as he was born, he no longer needed any assistance or help.

Gods most perfect creation.

The most outstanding human who inherited the blood of the legend, who became a god.

With each step Eleon drew closer, the sound of his footsteps felt like a spike in her heart.

I wanted to see Eleon regain his sight.

Elysia imagined Eleon represented in .

However, the image of Eleon that was portrayed in writing was very different from reality.

What should I use to properly express the bright red eyes when the sunlight shines through?

Eleon, who had regained his eyes, was so beautiful that Elysia was about to cry.

The uniform he was wearing suited him very well.

Who would have taken care of the buttons and the way they looked without a single twist? Was it Bernard? Or did he hire another maid?

It is said that he was hiring a lot of people, so someone must have taken care of him.

When Karina didnt choose Eleon, she was afraid his eyes wouldnt heal.

There were times when she cried, seeing him suffering from seizures.

Elysia prayed a hundred or a thousand times and hoped that the future would come like a miracle that time.

Im happy that Eleons eyes have healed, but what is this feeling?

Heartbreaking emotions quickly receded like an ebb and flow, and emptiness rushed in instead.

Elysia seeing that he no longer needed Rona was both happy and sad at the same time.

Maybe the reason why I found my family now is that he doesnt need Rona anymore?

Thats what she thought.

The plot corrects what inconveniences the male lead.

She wondered if it was the plot that led her to leave naturally.

Eleon walked past her without changing his expression.

The sound of his footsteps disappears behind her back.

He doesnt need me anymore.

At that moment, her heart pounded.

The sudden pain made Elysia stumble for a moment.

Elysia.

Mariela caught her.

Are you alright?

Yes. Im sorry. I am not used to the new shoes.

Elysia quickly straightened her posture.

She had an invitation with the Emperor and the Empress.

* * * * *

The Emperor and the Empress made a worthy couple.

Matching up with the character of the Duchess of Yuter, the event went smoothly throughout tea time.

Empress Serafina, as Mariela said, was very interested in Elysia.

I always attended every prayer assembly held by you. Dont you remember?

Yes, Your Majesty the Empress.

After the prayer assembly, when I asked you for a private prayer, you said that even the Empress was the same in front of God, so I waited two or three hours. Dont you remember this too?

Yes. Im sorry, Your Majesty.

It is said that Elysia had made a holy relic only when they donated a large amount of money to Hadunsha.

But she could only apologize because she couldnt remember anything.

Even if you lost your memory, I knew it would be like this.

I am sorry.

The Empress seemed to be disappointed.

Clatter

Elysia put down the teacup and inadvertently made a noise.

She should have put it down quietly without making a sound, which was against etiquette.

I apologized.

Mariela smiled embarrassedly.

I forgot all the etiquette, so Im learning from the beginning.

So thats why. I thought Lady Elysia had a bad attitude unlike before.

The empress looked as if her curiosity had finally been resolved.

Its so serious that you even forgot all the etiquette youve learned.

Still, I am grateful to God that there is nothing wrong with my health.

How are your preparations going for your debutante?

Ever since the Emperor congratulated her on her recovery, Empress Seraphina was leading the conversation the whole time.

I missed the timing due to circumstances, I plan to do it within this year.

We will have a ball at the Imperial Palace next week.

Yours Majesties, that would be difficult because the time is very tight.

The young daughter of Count Harrington also decided to make her debut that day. Lady Karina is also a late debutante, so please allow it.

Ahh.

When Mariela nodded in dismay, she smiled as if Empress Seraphina had taken great care of Elysia.

May Lady Elysia join us that day.

Thank you for your unlimited grace.

As Mariela bowed her head, Seraphina looked at them in delight.

Elysia came out after a series of Im sorry and her head seemed to be empty.

Im sorry, mother.

No need. Its a place where everyone gets nervous.

Then the Empresss maid came and whispered something to Mariela.

Her Majesty the Empress has something to say.

Theres a resting place in the garden for Lady Elysia. Please, come this way.

When Mariela left, Elysia tried to look around the garden slowly by herself.

To her surprise, she had no idea. Only the afterimage of Eleon that she had encountered a while ago filled her head.

Elysia stared blankly in the air, wandering aimlessly through the garden.

Ouch!

Elysia slipped over the edge of the decorative stone embedded in the garden floor. She stumbled and almost fell.

Snap

Someone quickly grabbed her waist and hugged her.

The familiar scent of sandalwood wafted into Elysias nose.

Are you alright?
