I Tamed a Tyrant and Ran Away

Chapter 123: Illustration

‘The sword?’

Charlize gradually regained consciousness. The nerves that stood sharply began to swell with someone’s tears.

“Honey, please calm down…”

Lucy?

Charlize slowly became aware of her surroundings. The changes that her energy has caused.

She could just feel it. About half of the monster forest was blown away by Charlize’s energy. Even though she couldn’t collect her energy at once, she was slowly regaining her energy.

When a storm strikes, the calmest and quietest place is the eye of the storm, the source. Lucy, right next to Charlize, was fine.

It was a desperate hug that would kill her if she missed it.

Charlize slowly opened her lips.

“Ah.”

A faint sigh was uttered shortly.

Lucy, trembling and shaking, seemed to be afraid that even a sword might be struck by Charlize.

Surely if someone other than Lucy had hugged Charlize, she would have cut them off unless it was Dylan.

The blurred vision returned. At last, the storm stopped.

“Honey, are you okay…?”

“Let me go.”

Charlize said coolly.

Lucy slowly released Charlize, who was hugging her from behind, even while sniffing.

The fairies were watching, unable to understand why their words had made Charlize so destructive.

Just for a moment, Charlize realized that she was a ‘god’. How can she call herself a human with this kind of power?

<Kiera.>

‘The real piece of Ehyrit has already been stained with evil.’

Charlize’s fingertips were still trembling with intent to kill. However, thanks to Lucy’s tearful dissuasion, the thought of killing Kahu stopped for now.

Although there was chaos around him, Kahu was still sleeping peacefully.

Even though the energy was collected, the repercussions remained. The Rapine clan was unable to get close. Only Lucy, the master above the level, endured it.

<Shall we wake this up?>

While the fairies were looking around, they wandered around Kahu and asked.

If Dylan had told her the reason why he didn’t like him right from the start, she wouldn’t have run away twice. Indeed, the fairies had already told Charlize, Dylan and she was fate.

“You can hide or reveal your appearance to others whenever you want.”

Charlize said.

The fairies looked perplexed.

Above all, Lucy, unable to see the fairies, opened her eyes wide, wondering if Charlize was talking to herself.

Charlize asked without hesitation.

“Why didn’t you reveal your appearance to anyone other than me, so that Payne could see you?”

<It was frustrating.>

<We wanted you to recognize us.>

<We serve Kiera.>

They looked down as if they were sad because they were considered only a fairy by Charlize.

After reading the context carefully, Lucy quietly moved away and remained silent. Lucy couldn’t hear the fairies, but-

‘Charlize is both a human and a god.’

She could know that fact for sure.

A being who can see things that cannot be seen in the human world, and can do things that humans cannot do.

Charlize lowered her sword diagonally, closing her eyes slowly, then opened them.

Lucy gently held Charlize’s hand and took the sword naturally.

Charlize just left it alone. She just thought to herself.

‘Anyway, from the beginning to the end, it means that you have a feeling for me.’

The credibility of the fairies, which had gone down to the bottom, was restored a little.

The fairies said that Charlize was a god, but they didn’t pay much attention. But this is the only way to deny it.

Charlize stopped worrying.

“Wake him up. And show me Kahu’s memories.”

The fairies’ expressions brightened as if they were happy to be able to help with the finally granted permission. It was pure emotion.

<Please close your eyes.>

<Kiera.>

<It’s a little cold.>

Charlize closed her eyes.

Immediately after the notice, her whole body became cold and chilly. To be precise, it felt like every nerve in her body was getting cold. It wasn’t painful, but the atmosphere changed as she lost her mind for a moment.

It was as if she had been invited to a space that squeaked like jelly. A completely different world. The moment she realized it, she opened her eyes.

That’s Kahu’s memory. It was a heterogeneous world where everything looked black and white.

“…”

The first scene showed Kahu, who looked quite young, studying among all kinds of documents.

Sometimes he says, ‘No way…’ or vulgar self-talk comes out. It seemed that he was reading a secret document of the magic tower, which was working on the Kiera project.

Since it was a fixed event that had already happened once, so even if Charlize approached him, Kahu didn’t notice.

“Charlize Ronan. What the hell happened to you?”

Kahu just mumbled.

<No 512. Charlize Ronan.>

Charlize stared strangely at her name on the Kiera Project’s experimental list.

The age, gender, and identity of Charlize when she disappeared before returning were also recorded.

When she stretched out her hand, it scattered like an illusion, and nothing was caught.

The scene changed again.

In the second scene, a few years later, Kahu was wearing scruffy clothes and was moving forward with difficulty.

Even though he was drenched in blood by all kinds of magic, he did not let go of the sword in his hand. Charlize stood next to Kahu and looked back.

Perhaps it was the base of the secret magic tower.

‘Payne said the secret magic tower is like a temple.’

It was similar to the structure described by Payne. It was different from Ehyrit’s temple only in the use of black for the pillars and flooring.

‘Up to this point on his own.’

No matter how much Akan or Dante gave him Ronan’s ice castle, they asked Kahu to find the missing Charlize.

It was already beyond economic motivation that he had risked his life for years to reach the base of the perfectly hidden magic tower.

“If you don’t know Kiera’s secret… the world will perish…”

As if he had to do it, Kahu seemed to brainwash himself.

“And the secret magic tower, who became a wizard by the power of evil gods Kiera…”

As the drops of blood splatter on the floor, he ended up moving forward, with his already bloodshot, swollen eyes.

Even before the return, Kahu was definitely smart. Because he realized the connection between the destruction and Kiera.

Dietrich, who was the late Emperor when Charlize was Kiera, had not been given the news of Kahu from some time ago. When she heard Kahu’s story, she thought it was because Kiera didn’t listen to him.

‘That’s not it.’

He was really missing.

It was a fleeting moment, but if Charlize had not been in love with Dylan now. She wondered if she might have been rationally attracted to Kahu.

Before the return, no one questioned the disappearance of Charlize Ronan.

[No one can hear what Kiera says.]

Hearing Dietrich’s mockery, she cried out for help, but no one found her. However, Kahu had almost found out the root of her disappearance.

Perhaps to save Charlize.

Kahu, who had been bleeding too much and eventually collapsed, was in such a serious condition that he looked like he was going to die soon.

Even though she knew it was a fixed memory that she couldn’t intervene, she wanted to reach out for a moment. She wanted to save him.

Because she knew how harsh the future would be after that.

And in fact, it was very disastrous.

<If it’s too hard, shall we move on?>

<Shall we move on?>

“No, you don’t have to.”

She’ll see everything.

She rejected the concerns of ancient gods. So Charlize saw everything.

A conversation between wizards surrounding the fallen Kahu.

“He has a physical constitution that absorbs evil spirits exceptionally well.”

“There comes a human being with a physical constitution who absorbs evil spirits or God’s energy once in a while.”

A brutal tragedy that took place under the name of the God Project. Kahu’s screams and pain.

All the things he had to go through were more than Charlize, who had to become a living magic sword, more and never less.

She realized that too much contempt made his head empty rather cold.

The cruelty of the secret magic tower was beyond the limits and was evil itself. Only deletion is the answer.

“Master, we have succeeded.”

Charlize just stood there, staring. The one who kneels down to Kahu, who can’t already be called a human being, puts his lips on the back of his feet. He reigned and commanded naturally even among wizards.

He who ruled and commanded naturally among the wizards.

“Ah, my father.”

Alone among all the black things, with silver hair. Red-eyed handsome man. He was the master of the magic tower.

The master of the magic tower revered Kahu and trembled with joy. Moans of joy leaked from his lips, who had declared that the Kiera project was a failure.

“Father…!”

He, who was calling Kahu ‘Father’, screamed.

Charlize watched Kahu’s pain all along.

The last scene she saw was Kahu, hundreds of years later. A certain intense light flashed, and time began to go backward. Perhaps when Charlize regressed herself with the power of God.

400 years later, the territory of the empire, which had united all the continents gradually decreased, the transformed mountain ranges rose again, and the dried-up river was filled with water again.

The extinct animals and plants came to life, the born disappeared, the dead moved to live, the four seasons went back, and the whole world was reversed.

Kahu was awake there alone.

The evil god but still human.

And, again now.

***

When Charlize opened her eyes, she could not tell how much time had passed.

Dry, dehydrated mouth, stiff eyes, and exhausted body. The stiff muscles just made her guess that quite a long time had passed.

As the years of memory are 400 years, it was long no matter how quickly it was edited and shown.

“…”

Charlize felt a slight headache and raised her upper body.

The quilt fell off with a sound.

Lucy, who was dozing off, looked at Charlize in surprise.

The fairies had already disappeared.

“I was surprised that you suddenly collapsed… Honey, are you okay?”

Lucy asked. Perhaps Charlize fell asleep looking at Kahu’s memories, and Lucy was by her side, taking great care of her.

Charlize turned her head without answering, and Kahu on the next bed was also seen standing up with his head held up.

Immediately, Kahu and her eyes met in mid-air. There was an eerie silence for a moment.

However, despite her concerns, Kahu seemed to maintain his human self for now.

The moment she saw his pale tired face and confused eyes, she just noticed, ‘He… has regained his memory as well.’

“…”

“What! Did you wake up?”

Payne rejoiced as he walked in with Chase.

How many days have passed? At least it seemed to have been restored to some extent that Charlize had destroyed the building.

“Let me report first.”

Payne said to Charlize.

“Our Alperier and Rapine worked together to make a necklace, if he wears it, the evil Kahu won’t work for anyone except Kahu himself.”

“…Necklace?”

Charlize’s voice was hoarse. Payne nodded his head exaggeratedly at her indifferent question

“Yeah, so rest assured! He has already worn it!”

Charlize looked at Kahu. As Payne said, a necklace she had never seen before was hung around the young duke’s neck.

Kahu also looked at Charlize. As soon as he regained his memory, she wondered what he was going to say, but he said something unexpected.
