Come Here, Tyrant!
CH 7
It was not unusual for the fierce tyrant to draw that sword and turn this reception room into a sea of blood.
Her face turned white as she imagined that.
‘This is driving me crazy…’
No matter how much she tried to stay rational, her ability to reason was paralyzed.
Annie gritted her teeth.
Today, she might leave the world because of that sword.
As she managed to raise her gaze, she saw the pointed ceiling that fit the reputation of being the highest in the world.
For some reason, the roof felt like the top of her tomb.
‘Wake up, Annie Mill Dsev…‘
As she clenched her fists, her long nails broke through.
Thanks to that, Annie’s mind had finally returned after briefly leaving.
Annie asked with a smile.
“Is something the matter, Your Majesty?”
“…”
Ejed was silent, and the two men behind him flinched.
The elegant-looking blonde man coughed into the clasped hand over his mouth, and the blue-haired man only rolled his eyes.
‘What… Why are you guys doing that?’
This unknown situation made her feel like someone had grabbed her neck.
She felt a sudden surge of displeasure.
‘If you called someone, you should talk about the subject, or maybe even make eye contact.
Why are you only looking at the floor!’
Annie’s mouth became stiff.
‘No, no.
I’d rather not see it.’
As if flipping her palm, she quickly changed her thoughts.
As soon as they exchanged eye contact, her mouth refused to open, as if it were stitched together by a needle.
She turned her head, wanting to escape the situation.
The most likely hypothesis was a direct tax investigation.
The royal family could be conducting an overall tax investigation into the noble family.
It may be that they are trying to set an example to the nobles who want to test and manipulate anyone.
‘Yes, that’s probably it.’
After making a quick judgment as usual, Annie took a long breath.
She pulled out the white paper from the brown paper she put on her lap.
Her sweaty fingertips trembled faintly.
“Here you go.”
As Ejed was silent, the tyrant’s aides walked behind him a few steps and looked at the papers.
Flutter.
The blonde man, who finished the review at great speed, narrowed his eyes.
“It’s perfect.”
“As expected, Yannie… No, Miss Annie.”
Hmm.
The blue haired man who said her name wrong, cleared his throat, and the blond man turned his eyes towards him.
Annie’s unique eyes lit up like amethysts.
It seemed that she heard rumors that a first-class aide named ‘Doher’ was active in the Imperial Palace.
‘That blonde, smart-looking man is Doher.’
Doher brought the papers that the blue-haired man was slowly skimming through.
In just a few seconds, he nodded.
“It definitely matched what we researched.”
‘Researched.’
Annie has never missed a word.
She only now figured out why the emperor had called her.
In an instant, words from her head were processed in her mouth and came out plainly.
“It’s not that…“
“Well, Your Majesty, the Dsev family are fair.
As you may well know, even when I have a hard time with my finances, I paid my taxes twice a year without delay.”
It’s interesting how excessive fear can paralyze a person’s senses.
She even dared to interrupt the Emperor’s words and didn’t even realize it.
Annie spoke again in a higher pitch than before.
“I haven’t been exploiting the taxes that the permanent residents shed blood and sweat for.
I am not living a completely transparent life, but I live without shame.”
‘What? Why are you so quiet!’
Annie, who swallowed her dry saliva, continued to speak.
“I deeply regret throwing trash on the floor of the capital from time to time when I was young.”
“…”
“Well, I’m sorry.
Come to think of it, there were times when it was thrown out of the carriage window.
It was a time when I was young.”
At that moment, Ejed smiled faintly as if he was feeling murderous. Rumors say that when he has such a face, he would kill people.
‘Please don’t!’
The intuition that if she doesn’t run away now she won’t see the sun tomorrow raged like a strong storm.
Annie quickly added her words.
“I’m sorry, but if I’m done with my business, I’ll be on my way.”
‘I can’t see.
I can’t see anything.’
Her vision suddenly went white.
