Chapter 160

Episode #160. I saw the future.

Limon has lived a long life.

And he had a lot of experience as well.

Poisoning in the guise of beauty is so much that it cannot be counted in double digits.

However, what Ainsha had just done was enough to make even Limon faint for a moment.

It was the first time in his life that he had attempted an assassination attempt that was so novel and even innovative.

“It is better to eat quickly. The tea cools down. The dokdo effect will be reduced.”

Ainsha makes a foolish recommendation.

That’s why Limon pressed his hand to her temple instead of getting angry with her or overturning the table.

“…I’m going to ask just to confirm. Didn’t you say you would propose to me?”

“you’re right.”

“So you decided to go on a date with me?”

“of course.”

“Then why are you poisoning me?”

“It is to send Lee to the goal.”

I wonder why you ask such an obvious thing.

Ainsha answered expressionlessly.

Thanks to that, Limon tried to calmly ask, suppressing the headache that was about to rise again.

“Then why are you trying to kill me? What is the reason?”

It would be understandable if Ainsha would rather find out her identity and try to kill her.

Limon is the Cheolcheon enemy of the Seven Dragons.

Even the White Dragon Clan, who always stands out first, has a lot of grudges.

But that won’t be it.

If I had known he was Limon, I wouldn’t have tried to kill him with poison.

Well, in the first place, even if it was an ordinary person who wasn’t Limon, his intention was unknown from the point of poisoning in front of his eyes.

In the first place, if you really want to kill people, you can’t do something stupid like this…

‘Wait, you stupid?’

That moment.

Limon raised his eyes.

It was because Ainsha had only one reason to do this out of the blue.

And Ainsha’s blunt words turned Limon’s guess into certainty.

“I must kill you. So kill it. There is no other reason.”

Looking at the content, it was a perfect psycho, but Limon was not taken aback.

Instead, he narrowed his eyes and looked at her, then asked.

“What did you see?”

“…it’s a secret.”

“okay? Then ask differently.”

Limon opened his mouth again with a cold voice to Ainsha who kept his mouth shut.

“What kind of future do you want to change, so you want to kill me?”

A shivering and trembling body.

Pupils shaking as if there was an earthquake.

Even the gaze that sneaked back there.

Limon clicked his tongue at Ainsha’s reaction, which was so blatant that the perfect expressionless poker face was colorless.

It was expected, but that made it even more absurd.

“It’s not just the White Dragon Clan, I’m so upset that the White Dragon Princess is trying to change the future…” “

I didn’t say I was changing the future. It’s Lee’s mistake.”

“Then what does it mean that you saw the future of going to the cinema with me? If I eat poison right now and go crazy, that future will be gone, right?”

“….”

“Or at least tell me why you have to kill me.”

“….”

Ainsha became an instant killer.

If it were Li Qingyu, he would have made up five or six reasons on the spot.

Limon snorted at the girl who was too vulnerable to lies, fearing that someone might not belong to the White Dragon clan.

“Even if you don’t say anything, I guess. Nine out of ten you’ve seen the future of me doing something.”

flinch.

“Seeing that they even prepared for a date, the marriage proposal itself seems to have been sincere, so something happens after this.”

shaking.

“I think it’s rare for a princess of a clan to want to protect the person she chose as her sire, even if it means killing her.”

“It is a foul to read minds. It’s cowardly. It’s something the Black Dragon Clan would do.”

“Hmm, that sounds like all of my guesses were right.”

“….”

“You still don’t want to talk? Whether you say it or not, I intend to dig to the end anyway?”

For a while, she broke out in a cold sweat as if she were the real culprit being interrogated by the police with the 『False Detection』 skill.

Ainsha eventually drooped her shoulders.

And he opened his mouth in a still blunt yet strangely desperate voice.

“This is Tata.”

“What ride?”

“This is my nanny. And escort. He is also an attendant and an elder.”

Unbeknownst to the White Dragon Clan, his aide is shameless and as smart as he is.

As she spoke the name of the woman who could be called her only family, Ainsha confessed why she had to kill her.

“I saw the future where Lee kills Tata.”

* * *

It was a common story.

Knowing the future when a close relative dies.

It’s about changing the future.

Let’s say the murderer is the one you fell in love with at first sight, so you have to kill him.

Then the story will be a more rare and tragic romance or a thriller with a twist.

But what if the main character is the White Dragon Princess?

Limon could be assertive.

that would be a comedy

Because he was laughing right now.

“You tried to poison me to save your nanny?”

“That’s right. Neat. It is a minimal consideration.”

“Don’t you think that I won’t eat it if I’m poisoned from the front, putting aside what’s the point of being considerate of being poisoned?”

“I didn’t hear you.”

“why?”

“I saw a future where Lee drank tea. So, be sure to eat.”

“Are you aware that what you are saying is very contradictory?”

“…?”

“…Yes, I don’t know.”

Ainsha tilted her head as if she didn’t know what the problem was.

Feeling like he was dealing with a three-year-old child, Limon sighed.

It’s better if you’re younger.

Because the White Dragon Princess, who knew the future most accurately and was determined to change it, was like a rolling bomb.

That’s why Limon frowned.

‘It’s a prophecy… It’s bothering me.’

Those who know the future are controlled by the future.

Knowing that fact well, Limon was reluctant to entangle with the Prophet at all. Not to mention the White Dragon Princess.

However, since they heard the prophecy, it is already too late to pretend not to know.

Even if he didn’t know anything in the first place, it seems that this foolish princess with the end of his acting ability wouldn’t have let him go.

I wish I could think like that for a while.

Limon suddenly opened his mouth.

“Are you going to do anything to stop that kid named Tata from dying?”

“of course. Tata is precious.”

“Even risking your life?”

“It is not.”

“…That answer is so neat.”

Limon shuddered at Ainsha, who was nodding just a moment ago, but shook his head at once.

Ainsha said bluntly to him.

“I am the White Dragon Princess. You must have a generation. I will not die until then.”

“What would it be?”

For the princess of the Seven Dragons, passing on the generation is a duty and instinct that takes precedence over anything else.

No matter how much Ainsha loved a woman named Tata, it was impossible to take the risk of cutting off the dragon’s blood, even if she wanted to.

In that sense, Limon nodded at Ainsha’s answer, which was as expected.

and asked again.

“What if instead of changing the future, we had to give up the entire White Dragon clan?”

“It’s not possible. i die Tata kills me.”

“Isn’t that a fool?”

“That’s the price for helping me with my marriage proposal.”

“If you kill me anyway, it’s a proposal and a price, so it’s all gone? Is there any reason to save it now?”

“…Come to think of it, yes.”

It’s like I’ve gained a new realization.

One time to shake my head.

After thinking it through, Ainsha opened her mouth with an expressionless face.

“That’s enough. Even if it doesn’t work, I will make it happen.”

“Hmm?”

I tapped the table with my fingers and looked at Ainsha for a while.

Limon took a hot green tea and shot it at once.

Then he put down his empty glass and said.

“Don’t forget what I just said.”

Ainsha blinked.

once twice and then again.

It seems like you saw something strange.

Looking back and forth between the empty teacup and Limon, she asked curtly after a while,

“…that’s strange. I ate poison. But he doesn’t die.”

“Nothing to be surprised about. I ate so many of these things from the old days that I developed a tolerance to the mild poison.”

He laughed while recalling the memories of having to eat, drink, and get hit with all kinds of extreme poisons that the Green Dragon clan was proud of.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Limon rose from his seat.

“Now then, let’s do it properly.”

“I want to know what you are doing right.”

“What is it? We met for a date, so let’s go on a date.”

“…???”

“However, the dating course will be a little different from the future you saw.”

I’ve given you an answer at best.

Rather than before hearing the answer, Limon laughed at Ainsha, who was expressionless and confused.

Then, he took out his smartphone and made a meaningful expression.

“In that sense, I ask you, do you like puzzles?”

* * *

“Are you curious about why the White Dragons are called fools?”

[yes. Even if it’s the team leader, I think there must be a reason why Gongju unnie takes it for granted.]

Yuna-kyung asked with a curious face.

It wasn’t just that Limon was bored with being left out on a date.

It was because he did not understand why the White Dragon Clan, which is an axis of the Seven Dragons of the same name and maintains its power compared to the fallen Black Dragon Clan, was treated as such an idiot.

As if understanding her question, Li Qingyu calmly opened his mouth.

“The reasons are many, but the bottom line is that they are born with foresight.”

[Why is that? Foresight is a good thing, isn’t it?]

Upon hearing that, Yuna-kyung put on an expression that she didn’t understand.

The foresight to read the future is a fraudulent power.

Players with prophecy-type skills could understand the usefulness just by seeing them receive the highest level of treatment anywhere.

Seeing Yuna-kyung like that, Li Qingyu smiled.

“Wouldn’t it be nice if someone threw a surprise party for your birthday?”

[Of course.]

“Would you be happy if you knew in advance when and how that surprise party would be held?”

[Um… Well, a party is a party after all. Wouldn’t it be nice?]

“What if I had the same party yesterday? What if you heard the same joke from the same people at the same place where the food was prepared?”

[…that would be more tiring than happy.]

“That’s right. But what do we call those who repeat yesterday’s actions without any fun in order to end the party as successfully as yesterday?”

[Stupid, right?]

“Then what do you call a person who tries to lighten up the cake by putting his face in the cake because he knows the party is a failure?”

[…isn’t that stupid?]

“That’s why the White Dragon clan is stupid.”

[Yes?]

Li Qingyu did not bother to explain further to Yuna-kyung, who tilted her head as if she did not understand the meaning.

He just smiled a little and spoke quietly.

“It is also the reason why the White Dragon Princess is the most unlucky among the seven princesses.”

[…?]

It was while Yu Na-kyung was struggling to interpret the unknown words that Li Qing-yu’s pager was contacted.

“Swordsmith? What are you doing on a date?”

“Sure, just tell me.”

Li Qingyu calmly answered the unexpected phone call.

It was immediately after that that her expression changed strangely.

“yes yes.”

“yes…?”

“…what are you going to do?”
