Chapter 641 Did you ever resent me?
"Who?"
For a moment, Peters was somewhat dazed.
He even thought it was just his imagination because he was getting old.
Because here, no one calls him teacher.
Apart from……
But it turned out to be no illusion.
Peters quickly spotted the person who had arrived.
Because he had no intention of hiding.
However, he was still wearing a thick robe.
It's like she doesn't want anyone to see what she looks like.
"You are……"
Although it was eerie, Peters wasn't too scared.
Because he sensed it...
"Do you still recognize me, teacher?"
The black robe slowly fell, allowing Peters to see the familiar red hair.
This color...
"Although I look different now, you should still remember my hair color, right?"
Because of his abilities, Roman's hair is very long.
Like a dense forest, she also had a head of hair that could be described as lush.
But it's black.
She has been dyeing her hair for a long time.
From the time she left Totland until now.
So long that she even forgot her original hair color was red.
The loss of life has drastically altered her appearance.
However, her hair color remained the same.
Now that she has returned to her homeland, she should reveal a portion of her true self.
"you……"
"I am Garette. It's been a long time, teacher. It's nice to see you again."
"Are you really His Highness?"
“Of course, teacher, have you forgotten? I once said something rebellious: the Queen’s departure is the beginning of Totland’s death knell.”
Looking at his long-lost friends, Roman smiled sincerely.
……
"No one usually comes here, right?"
“Mondor comes by occasionally, but he treats me like I don’t exist.”
"Him? But all the books here seem to be covered in dust!"
Roman touched the book cover with his finger; it was covered in a thick layer of dust.
"That prince only likes military books; he rarely touches other books."
“That’s just Montor’s nature; the Kingdom of All Nations doesn’t need useless things. But with you here, they should still have some value.”
"Your Highness is joking. I am an old man. I could clean often a few days ago, but now I am getting weaker and weaker."
“Since you left, the library has been practically my room, like it’s been forgotten. I even thought I would just die like this.”
"Of course, no one in the world will starve. As long as you want to, you can always survive. At least you can survive quietly."
……
Roman listened quietly to his rambling without interrupting.
People who have been hesitant for too long tend to become talkative when a new stimulus comes along.
Therefore, Roman knew that listening was the best option.
However, while Peters was taking a break to drink water, she asked a question.
A question she desperately needed an answer to.
Do you resent me?
"What? Your Highness, why do you say that?"
"I chose to leave alone, without taking you with me. I knew perfectly well that the Kingdom of Ten Thousand was not suitable for you. I also knew that this was a cruel world."
"So why didn't you speak to me back then?"
Roman asked very sincerely.
She chose to leave alone.
But she also knew that Peters was facing the same predicament as her.
But she never once spoke to him about being with him.
Peters himself never mentioned it.
"Your Highness, I am a teacher, but also an adult."
Peters laughed heartily, as if he had heard something hilarious.
“You were just a child then. An adult shouldn’t ask a child for help. He should do everything he can to protect her.”
Peters shook his head.
The world is not suitable for him.
Similarly, it is not suitable for Garrett.
But the hope of escaping is slim.
He shouldn't be a burden.
“A child is disappointed and in pain here, and longs for a new life. What reason do I have to be a burden to her? I cannot, and should not, speak up. Your Highness, this is what I think.”
Roman remained silent in response.
His expression, however, became somewhat sorrowful.
She wasn't a child to begin with.
She is a selfish adult.
They always only think of themselves when doing things.
"Your Highness, I am very happy to see you. Now I just want to ask you a question: Did you come back for destruction?"
