"Hmph, following her, I don't think you're a good person either." My expression darkened involuntarily. My tone was harsh; if I hadn't held back, I would have almost blurted out, how could a Supreme Lord like you die?!
"Say what you want." Hess frowned, clearly not wanting to say much more.
"Heh, as if I've wronged you."
"Sigh, I don't blame you for misunderstanding the princess. Even if everyone else betrays her, I will never do so." Hess looked determined.
It was his expression that suggested everyone in the world was bad and our princess was the only good one that stirred my extreme dissatisfaction.
"You think your princess is a good person? Don't you know she caused the deaths of Silver Moon's parents and intended to control him, plundering everywhere to create war? Her endless greed and ugly sins, and you still call her good?! I think you're just old and confused."
"You can't say that about the princess!" Hess glared at me.
"Then tell me what kind of person your princess is!"
"In short, the princess is not what you say she is!"
Looking at this old man who was huffing and puffing, trying hard to glare at me, I suddenly had the illusion that he might be telling the truth...
"Do you know why I will die?" I said.
"It's because of your princess. I've told you my story, and all the pain within it is because of Siyimo."
"No, that's not true. The princess grew up by my side; she wouldn't do something like that."
"You know what she has done, don't you?!"
"The princess is the most beautiful girl in the Underworld, kind and pure. Watching her grow up, I often thought that such a clean child must come from the Divine Realm."
"Hah, kind?" I scoffed.
"That's right, she never dared to take a life, not even a Little Flower Fairy."
"Are you sure you're talking about Si Yimo?" I questioned.
"Yes, it's the princess, the aunt of Prince Silvermoon."
"Then do you know that your princess has usurped the throne and calls herself Empress now?!"
"No, the one you're talking about is not a princess." Hess sighed, staring blankly at a spot.
"Could there really be two Si Yimos?"
"We're talking about one person but also not."
"Old man, stop beating around the bush and just say it."
"On the day the princess turned five hundred and came of age, she suddenly changed her temperament."
"Are you saying that on that day Si Yimo transformed from the kind princess you spoke of into the brutal empress she is now?" Honestly, if it's confirmed to be the same person, I can't believe such a sudden change could happen.
"That's right, the princess was prophesied to be the harbinger of destruction when she was young, but the king at that time did not believe it. Moreover, anyone who saw the adorable little princess would never believe she could be a disaster."
"Later, the king protected the little princess. Although she was carefully taken care of, the only ones who accompanied her were me and her beloved brother, who is also the father of Prince Silvermoon."
"Unexpectedly, on the day the princess turned five hundred, something seemed to erupt suddenly within her, and the entire palace was instantly destroyed. Everyone was terrified, and the king had no choice but to imprison the princess."
"Were there any other incidents, like your princess being swapped or—possessed?"
"Impossible. We saw it with our own eyes; it truly came from the princess's body."
"Oh right, right, there's one more thing."
"What is it?" I asked.
"That day, an evil female voice was speaking."
"An evil female voice?"
"Yes, from within the princess's body."
"What did she say?"
"She said, 'I have finally come out; you can no longer trap me.' There were some other scattered things I can't remember. Only this sentence stood out; her tone sent chills down my spine, as if—"
"As if she were someone who had been trapped for a long time?"
"That's right, it's been a very long time."
It should be like Nine Charm, the shout he made back then.
"Since we are sure they are the same person, could it be that she is the real Siyimo, and your princess has just been her hiding place from the beginning? She has been waiting for an opportunity."
"I don't know. Only the king at that time knows the truth, and that Seer."
"Seer?" Could it be the same person that Silver Moon mentioned, who predicted the chaos in the underworld? Perhaps, but it would be great if we could find him...
"No one knows his whereabouts."
I smiled. High-level beings are always like this; they often only explain everything after the story has concluded.
"Sigh, no matter how good your princess was in the past, she is completely different now. If one day I must do everything to—defeat her!"
Hess shook his head, his expression helpless and bitter, saying, "I told you, I am no one's servant now, and I have no ability to stop you, right?"
"Then if you return to your original form, will you continue to protect her?"
"Of course, the princess is my eternal master," Hess said decisively.
"So I'm sorry, I won't give you a chance to leave." I was equally firm.
