I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast

Chapter 14

No. Sir Eleon! Dont drink it!

Gulp, gulp, gulp.

Rona opened her mouth involuntarily.

He drank to the last sip, took the cup from her hand, and placed it on the floor.

He touched her hands, arms, and shoulders, reaching her face.

He wiped Ronas tearful cheek with his hand.

Dont cry.

How can you drink it?

Didnt you bring it to me?

Rona burst into tears again.

Well, I think I made a mistake. I originally found someone who could make it, but because she couldnt help me. heh heh, I tried to do it myself .

Rona was filled with sadness.

He moved his finger to wipe away the tears from Ronas cheeks, and then went away.

Its fine. I said Id try to drink whatever you brought.

still .

Its the thought that counts.

Eleon smiled happily.

But Rona seemed to feel even more heartbroken.

Ill find something better.

Wiping away her tears, Rona said bravely.

Of course, there will be more.

Eleon nodded.

I look forward to it.

I knew the medicine would end like this.

Returning to Crystal Palace, Sabiel was sipping a glass of wine.

Whats wrong with that bastard?

A high-alcoholic drink was splattered around the glass when it was laid down harshly.

Crown Prince Sabiel Oder Constance.

He was not worthy of the name.

The Empire Of Constance boasted a long history.

Among them, an important story in founding history is that of the first emperor, Oder.

A grand funeral was held after his death.

It was a tribute to the first emperor.

However, a year later, a revelation was issued at the temple.

As Emperor Oder said during his lifetime, he would become a god after he died.

After that, they returned to the tomb where the emperor was buried, and his body was missing.

Strangely, on the day the emperor became a god, it rains every year.

It was regarded as a message from the emperor and left a few words through the temple.

A child resembling him would be born in the Imperial Family.

Surprisingly, after that, one of the emperors children was born a boy with dark hair and red eyes.

Also, the child will have the qualities of a swordmaster.

The Empire was ruled by the descendants of the gods.

Two thousand years have passed since the founding of the country, and the world has changed so much.

Being a descendant of God meant that the child appointed by God would eventually become the emperor.

The child will inherit the throne regardless of birth order.

But Sabiel was a child who had not been appointed by God.

Although Lev Oder Constance was a princess and Eleons mother, she was born with red eyes and dark hair.

When Sabiel was three years old, he felt his whole world shake with the birth of Eleon.

How could this happen?

ts the first time that An Oder has been born in the Empire.

Then what will happen to our Prince, Your Majesty?

I was too young to know exactly what was going on.

But I knew for sure that it wasnt going to be good for me.

The cold eyes of his father, the emperor.

The never-drying tears of the Empress, his mother.

He liked his eye color every time he looked in the mirror, which was blue like the high sky.

Because the sky is the highest in the world.

Its a color that suits me, which everyone says is beautiful.

However, it was a color that should not exist for an Oder.

It wasnt Sabiels fault.

He was born that way.

He was treated as a defective product.

The first emperor Oder became a god? It was a funny story.

Sabiel began to believe that the tomb had been robbed.

He became close with a new group of aristocrats who regarded science as faith.

They had wealth and were opposed to the existing nobility.

The nobles, day after day, petitioned the emperor that he should adopt Eleon Clevent, the undefeated commander of the Knights Guard.

Sabiel despised those who did not recognize him.

He was the only heir and the official crown prince.

The first to cross the line and violate the rules were the old nobles who worshiped Oder, a relic of the old days.

So he plotted to destroy Eleon.

It wasnt poison that took his eyes, but a curse close to magic.

There was only one way to get his sight back.

Even the antidote was in Sabiels hands, so Eleon would live forever in darkness.

He was satisfied with the result.

Sabiel spent a large sum of money spreading rumors of the blind beast throughout the empire.

Rumors about the fallen hero were spreading day by day.

He felt a sense of pleasure at changing Eleon from a being to be admired to a poor bastard.

Sabiel was delightful these days.

But hes terribly annoying.

He had no intention of provoking Eleon.

But he felt dirty when he saw Eleons soft face stroking the fabrics in the bright sunlight.

Youve been thrown into the mud, but youve climbed up and managed to get your head out.

He looked stable and happy.

He was.

Surprisingly, the emotions on his face were satisfaction and happiness.

Ive never been happy. Ive never been satisfied with you yet.

I should have seen her face.

It would have been the perfect source of gossip.

Sabiel called his lieutenant.

Did you call?

I heard that Eleon Clevent has a woman.

Even the lieutenants eyes widened.

Eleon was famous for keeping his distance from women.

He was even called an impregnable fortress among the young girls of the capital.

Because no one has ever succeeded in dating him.

Do a background check. What kind of woman is she, her family? No, she could be a commoner.

Ill follow your orders.

Sabiel picked up the glass again.

I felt my stomach twist every time I remembered Eleons smiling face.

That night, Sabiel could not get drunk no matter how much he drank.

* * * * *

It was in the middle of the night that an unexpected event occurred.

Argh!

The people were awakened by Eleons painful screams.

The first thing Rona saw as she ran to his room was blood dripping from his eyes.

The bloodstains were clearly visible on the clean white comforter and pillow.

Arghh! My eyes!

Eleon couldnt stand it.

He scratched himself around his eyes.

Rona couldnt pull herself together.

It was the first time she had seen someone suffer so much.

Get out of the way, Miss Rona.

The butler and several attendants stepped out in front of her, trembling in surprise.

There will still be some cotton cloth left over. Go get it.

Bernard calmly tried to sedate him.

Ugh.

However, the difference in strength was so great.

Eleon bit Bernards arm.

Blood gushed over the sleeve of the butlers white shirt and immediately dripped onto the floor.

The other servants who had gone to find the long cloth returned, and in an instant, they tied Eleon with his limbs spread across the bed to prevent him from moving.

It was a miserable sight.

Shocked by the violent scene, Rona was crying while covering her mouth with her hands.

Argh. Ugh. Ughh.

The butler skillfully shoved the towel into Eleons mouth.

Uh, uh, uh!

Every time Eleon twisted his body, it creaked as if the bed frame was about to break.

The butler tore the rest of the white cloth and wrapped it around his arm to stop the bleeding.

Lets talk for a moment, Miss Rona.

* * * * *

There were a lot of things to take care of in the Grand Dukes manor.

Bernard, who had a short career at a fairly young age, became the butler only with his superior abilities.

There was no mistress to look after the Grand Duchy, yet, so the household he had to take on was endless.

In addition to his bedroom, he also had an office.

You must have been very surprised.

Yes.

Rona rubbed her cold, stinging hands.

Arent you surprised?

He also looked pale, unlike usual.

His sleeve was cut with scissors and his treated arm was bitten so hard that it didnt stop bleeding for a while.

It happened quite often.

There was concern in the eyes of the butler, who spoke calmly.

Something like this does it happen often? Its my first time seeing it.

If Eleon had experienced it often, it could not have been the first time she had seen it.

It happened before Miss Rona started working here. Long before that.

Bernards eyes reddened as he recalled the past.

The Grand Duke used to feel terrible pain whenever he treated his eyes.

Her eyes widened.

Bernard seemed to have a hard time just thinking about this.

The butler looked very distressed, unlike when he calmly tied the Grand Duke to the bed.

When Eleon returned with an eye injury from the final battle, he wasnt running like a wild beast from the start.

Rather, it is said that Eleon, who had a knights soul to the bone, suffered from the fact that he, the commander of the knights, had extinguished the light of victory dedicated to the empire.

So he tried drugs, food, and everything else to cure his eyes.

Then the symptoms started.

Your Highness says the pain felt like his eyeball being bitten from the inside, and there were times when he felt his eyes were set on fire.

A terrible pain struck Eleon.

Despite suffering almost every day for months, he didnt give up trying to get his sight back.

He had to do everything he could to get out of the endless pain.

But it wasnt peaceful.

Eleon was frustrated when he couldnt find a way back to the old days.

It was more difficult to watch Grand Duke suffer so much that I want to tear his eyes apart with my own hands.

Besides, every day was torture.

Will that medicine work? Will this treatment work?

Maybe I should just be patient one more time.

If only he could never experience this endless pain again.

Tears fell from the butlers eyes, who served his master like God.

Rona was so heartbroken that she felt like she was going to die.

Ask the butler. There must be a document that summarizes the medicines used for treatment. If I havent tried it, Ill drink it.

I wouldnt dare to make the medicine again, knowing it would be painful.

I understood that there must have been such a reason why he had carefully recorded it.

Dont expect too much. Ill drink whatever you bring.

Didnt you say that you were going to drink whatever I gave you while you were having such a hard time?

Do you know what I was going to feed you and you just trust me blindly?

What kind of medicine did you give to Your Highness?
