There are no Bad Transcendents in the World

“Ugh-!”

 

At the same time as the clouds of dust blew, a voice filled with pain flowed from Tahar’s mouth.

 

When Lydia reflexively used her powers to protect Garnet, Tahar wasn’t standing still either.

 

“….!”

 

He immediately summoned magic for defense.

 

Although he was neither a transcendental person nor possessed divine power, Tahar took great pride in his magic.

 

but…

 

bang-!

 

The magical power of Gelon, which he had been proud of all his life, was not enough to block the power of a four-year-old Transcendent.

 

On the contrary, the magic he created was absorbed by Lydia’s power and created a bigger shockwave.

 

It was natural that people’s attention was drawn to the sudden roar and shaking.

 

“oh my god…!”

 

“Your Highness!”

 

The courtiers, who were busily moving through the corridors as usual, stared at Tahar and the wall he had been slammed into.

 

The wall cracked as if it had been hit by a flying shell.

 

More than that, what puzzled them was the prince, who grasped the situation with a shabby face.

 

Sensing the overwhelming difference in strength between the transcendent and the human, he could hardly stand up.

 

It wasn’t until his aide lifted him up like a bag of flour that Tahar’s consciousness began to return.

 

“Are you okay…? Should I call the doctor?”

 

Garnet was startled.

 

“Ah, Dad, I just….”

 

Lydia looked equally puzzled while blocking Garnet’s way.

 

And, dozens of pairs of eyes flocked to see the shabby Crown prince’s face.

 

Tahar pushed His aide who was supporting him and shouted.

 

“Have you seen it? Everyone, go back to your places!”

 

“…..!”

 

With that command, the courtiers disappeared from the crown prince’s sight as if nothing had happened.

 

However, it was Tahar’s mistake that scattered the witnesses.

 

“Oh my god. His Highness Tahar tried to attack Her Highness Garnet, but Lady Lydia must have stopped it in surprise.”

 

“Her Highness the Crown Princess and Lady Lydia’s faces were white. I feel sorry for them….”

 

“Even so, His Highness, the Crown Prince, is very sensitive these days.”

 

Rumors spread quickly.

 

Until an hour ago, the worst situation had unfolded for Tahar, who had been appealing to the elders for the legitimacy of his succession to the throne, putting his bond with Lydia at the forefront.

“Me too! I’m here!”

 

“Did the meeting go well?”

 

As soon as they saw Daniel coming out of the building after the meeting, Damon and Arsene’s eyes lit up.

 

The two rushed to Daniel like a puppy that found a flying disk.

 

“Thanks to you.”

 

Daniel ruffled the hair of the two children who were clinging to his legs.

 

I, as well as Luke and Prause’s knights who had followed as an escort, were happy to see it.

 

“Looking at Daniel and the children now, doesn’t it look like a picture drawn to explain ‘a family that loves each other’?”

 

When I said it, Baron Butler also had a soft smile.

 

“I remember when His Highness the Grand Duke first brought the young master into Prause. He put the baby cradle in his office and rocked it from time to time.”

 

I couldn’t help but let out a small chuckle as I thought of the two children crying out in the middle of Daniel’s work.

 

Daniel looked at me and smiled softly.

 

“Frey, how was your way here?”

 

He naturally reached out his hand towards me.

 

Even though his soft silver hair was swaying in the wind and his vision would be dizzy, he did not take his eyes off me.

 

Both Damon and Arsene beckoned me to come closer.

 

It’s like saying I’m necessary for the three people’s peaceful daily life.

 

‘I didn’t even know there was such a happy scene in my previous life.’

 

The unrealistically warm scene reminded me of the loneliness of my previous life, which I had almost forgotten about.

 

I lightly placed my hand on his and entered between them.

 

“Except that the sky is too red, it’s—”

 

But before I finish speaking,

 

bang-!

 

There was the sound of something exploding.

 

The birds sitting on the trees flew all at once into the red sunset.

 

At the same time, Daniel’s pupils lengthened vertically.

 

“It’s a sound from the palace.”

 

His senses, incomparable to those of an ordinary human, uncovered another piece of information.

 

“I think an explosion occurred as Gelon’s magical power and Lydia’s superpowers collide.”

 

“What do you mean….”

 

No matter how insane Tahar was, he wouldn’t touch Lydia.

 

Rather than believing in his love for Lydia, it was a conclusion I made because I believed in his deficiency.

 

“It can’t be. Tahar has no divine power, but he takes great pride in the fact that he is the parent of a transcendental being.”

 

Moreover, there are a lot of eyes on the Crown Prince’s Palace.

 

Tahar is not an idiot, so he wouldn’t have attacked his daughter.

 

‘Then, don’t tell me…… Garnet?’

 

It was heartbreaking to think that Lydia had made a mistake in reflexively trying to protect her mother.

 

It’s definitely not a pressure a child can bear.

 

bang–!

 

Shocked by the sound of the explosion, Damon and Arsene, who were holding onto the hem of my skirt, also made serious faces.

 

“Lydia must be having a hard time….”

 

“I can feel Lydia’s sadness.”

 

“…..”

 

The two children made sad faces as if they felt something as transcendental beings.

 

I patted both of them on the shoulders.

I couldn’t remember what kind of conversations and meals I had with my father that day.

 

However, during the meal, I clearly remembered the news that my father’s aide asked for his understanding and hurriedly conveyed it.

 

[“His Highness Tahar tried to attack Crown Princess Garnet, but Lady Lydia stopped it…”]

 

[“What did you just say? Tahar?”]

 

[“Her Highness the Crown Princess wants to stay with Lady Lydia at the annex for the time being.”]

 

[“Garnet must have been very surprised, so listen to me. Send hot tea and snacks and prepare meals.”]

 

If it were the same as before, the empress or crown prince would have interfered with the emperor’s feelings by using their hands and feet.

 

But now things are different.

 

Fortunately, Garnet and Lydia moved to the annex under the care of my father.

 

Garnet is an adult, and she had been doing something wrong all this time, so I didn’t feel much sympathy for her.

 

‘That doesn’t mean Tahar can hit her, though.’

 

But as an adult, I couldn’t help but worry about Lydia.

 

‘My kids would have cried in surprise if something like that happened.’

 

Damon and Arsene, my two children, and Lydia were the same age, so I felt more empathy.

 

Children get scared when their parents argue in front of them.

 

“To think that a man named father tried to push his wife in front of the child…”

 

Lina, who was in the office with me, didn’t respond at all, as if she had read the sadness mixed in my voice.

 

I got up and looked out the window.

 

The Prause mansion in the capital was on fairly high ground, so I could see banners hung by people in the residential area.

 

[I oppose the coronation of the crown prince who attacked the transcendent!]

 

[How can a man who attacks his daughter become the father of an empire!]

 

The rumors had gotten a little out of hand, and now Tahar was the one who had attacked Lydia and Garnet.

 

Well, that’s not wrong.

 

Considering Lydia’s surprise when she saw Tahar revealing his fangs to Garnet.

 

‘It’s not that he didn’t attack Lydia because Lydia must have reflexively beaten his power.’

 

Moreover, the Transcendent’s sacred image within the Empire was hurting Tahar doubly.

 

His mother and the Duke of Gelon, who is closely related to the Fog of Fall.

 

Tahar, who is trying to take advantage of the young Transcendentalist without even taking care of her.

 

People showed a strong dislike for him.

 

“Lina. How is public opinion?”

 

“It will most likely be worse than it is now. Less than a day has passed since His Highness the Grand Duke informed the Council of Elders about the scroll containing Lady Lydia’s power.”

 

When Tahar’s reputation was thrown to the ground. Daniel took the scroll to the Council of Elders and revealed that Gelon and Tahar had tried to use Lydia’s powers personally.

 

[Gelon even mobilized the fog of Fall to satisfy self-interest with this ability bestowed by God.]

 

The council even made and distributed press releases, saying that they would not damage the Imperial Family, by revealing such uncertain facts.

 

It was only natural that newspapers that received his press release would make headlines about scrolls.

 

‘Daniel…If you just look at it, it has a beast-like side.’

 

Appearing like an orphan who didn’t know anything about bloody fights or tricks, he didn’t hesitate when attacking his opponent.

 

Thanks to his blow, Tahar’s image was damaged beyond repair.

 

And also thanks to his bold actions, I was able to receive a letter.

 

[As requested by the citizens, requested by the council, and permitted by His Majesty, Obelir’s bloodline, Frey Prause, must attend the Council of Elders and prove her ability as the next emperor candidate.]

 

A letter with the seal of the Council of Elders, which would make the Empress and Tahar collapse when they saw it.
