ALL NOVEL Not willing to live anymore?!
In the Eden Academy, it was a distressful day as every professor along with the headmaster himself was gathered at a place and was anxiously standing along with some major figures of the empire.
Among those were the first prince, Duke Reynold, and Alex who came to guard a single entity.
The Emperor of Gram.
After they heard from Tiara’s maid that the first princess has stabbed herself and Austin had taken her away, Alex tracked down where the blond boy went and informed his majesty.
It was a matter of life and death which undoubtedly would panic any father, especially when he already has lost his eldest son.
Along with a troupe of soldiers, they all rushed to the Academy through the portal, and from what Alex sensed, Austin has taken Tiara to his dorm, where all these people have gathered.
The reason they weren’t able to walk in was because of a single woman standing as a guard who has forbidden anyone from trespassing.
Emperor William through authority or by force tried to dismiss Saya but he failed when all his guard was lost just under her aura. She was frightening through and through, about whom even Alex conceded.
There was no hero Kyouki or Commander Charles around as well who could force with brutal strength and Merlin was also helpless since commencing some high-degree spell might damage Tiara who was inside.
Duke Reynold was helplessly sighing as well since his best shot was his daughter who might have pursued the matter but some days ago he received her letter that she was going somewhere for some days.
He indeed was worried for her but he knew Sicily was a sensible girl who wouldn’t do anything rashly. But the matter of fact remains in this anomaly currently standing in front of Austin’s dorm.
There were reports about a strange professor in the Academy who regards Austin as her brother but neither Reynold nor any other high official paid much mind to it before.
‘
But now, the Duke regretted such a decision.
Mikhail was the most nervous after his father since despite knowing Tiara’s obsession with Austin didn’t inform the latter. If Austin would have known what madness she possess then Austin might have taken things with Tiara more cautiously.
But all he can do now was to wait…
After what seemed an eternity for some, which in reality was just half an hour, Saya jerked slightly before she stepped forward and announced in a loud tone.
“Any five of you may go inside.”
Emperor William didn’t even think a second before he marched forward, without caring whether he was guarded or even anyone was following him. He just wanted to see his daughter.
Mikhail nodded toward Reynold, Alex, and Merlin before they also walked inside wordlessly.
Saya closed the door after the last man walked in before she stood straight once again, facing the crowd sternly.
------------------------
In the room, there were three people present. Other than Tiara and Austin, Luna was also there who was sitting on a chair with her face pale in exhaustion.
As the others walked in, Austin turned to them and bowed to the Emperor as the man only responded with a small nod before he moved to the bed where his precious daughter was lying with her nape wrapped in a thick band-aid and a strange mana circle revolving actively around the region.
Tiara’s face had tear stains and the redness of her face was entirely evaporated like she was just on verge of dying.
William’s heart clenched but he was able to hold himself together as while roaming his hand over Tiara’s cold forehead he asked in a hushed tone.
“How is she? Will you be able to save her, Luna-san?”
The saintess recognized by the pope of the cathedral undoubtedly would be the best doctor William could ask for so Luna’s following words were critical for the Emperor.
Luna calmed herself; as she took a heavy breath before getting up from her seat. The others gave her space as she walked up to the man.
“She has injected with an Enzaer which I have only come across once. I am trying my best to cure it but I need time. However…whether she would be able to hold that long highly depends on her willingness and from what I could sense, Your Highness is doing her best to oppose my cure.”
Alex widened his eyes since he recognized the name of the poison Luna spoke of but never found one even though he tried all his resources. However, he was not going to quell his curiosity at the moment.
William didn’t have to ask further since he already grasped the fatality of the matter. He was left speechless for a long time as he thought of any possible resort of how he could save his princess but he was able to think of none.
“Why…why isn’t she willing to live anymore?”
Hearing the mournful voice, Luna turned to look at Austin since she didn’t know whether she should be saying this. Thankfully, someone else walked forward to take care of the situation.
“Father…let’s talk about it later. First, we have to save Tia.”
Mikhail squeezed his father's shoulder as he spoke in a whispering tone. His guilt and remorse intensified ever since he entered the room, but he have to keep himself collected.
Luna stepped back as she stood beside Austin before the latter wrapped his hand around her shoulder while various thoughts resurfaced in his mind. He actively was thinking about whether any of his artifacts could help her.
But he could not think of any and he was feeling miserable about it. After all, even though no one blames him, it was no denying that Tiara ended up like this because Austin was late to react.
The room fell into dead silence with the only thing audibly echoing was the ragged breath of the princess.
Suddenly, Luna’s eyes widened as she suddenly felt something but before she could have affirmed whether she sensed it right, a joyful voice abruptly barged in.
“I heard there was a wedding?”
