Saving The Abandoned Empress-Chapter 110

110 “Return With Victory”

Every step that Eleanora took in the ground started to cover in ice as she walked. Where, her long silver hair flew with her long blue cape as she moved.

Even while facing hundred barbarians at once, her blue eyes remained calmed and cold.

With a low sharp sound, she draw her sword out and hold it with full confidence like the barbarians infront of her was nothing.

Her sword movements was so swift and clear that, it looked like she was actually dancing with her sword rather then fight.

Cedrick felt a heart skip as he looked at her.

The cheerfulness and childish behaviour of her can only be seen by the people she is closed with.

Like her father, her cousin and her friends, which included him now.

She is a complete different person when she deals with others except those people.

Either it’s normal people or the enemy, she always have her guards up against everyone.

.....

Like no one can break the hard ice walls of her.

But inside those hard ice walls is a beautiful garden full of innocence.

During the past four years, Eleanora’s personality changed a lot.

She has started to express her emotions and concerns, even if she looks cold in outside.

In the battlefield, it feels like this is the only ppace where she can vent up her secret emotions.

Pouring them all put with violence.

Just like the scene infront of Cedrick now.

Cedrick sighed as he started to use his magic to help Eleanora move more fast and lightly.

‘Stop beating so fast for her, My heart. She can’t be ours...’

Even if Eleanora burnt down every letter sent by the emperor to her, Cedrick could see the hidden emotions in her cold eyes.

The fear of rejection, the fear of accepting a new change and the possibility of regretting it, Cedrick understood those emotions too well.

Because once, he was like this too.

He couldn’t express his admiration for her, which started to pile up in his heart and then finally turned into an unrequited love.

He knows it too clearly that she is just deceiving herself by thinking she doesn’t like the emperor, even if they don’t marry, she won’t choose him either.

She is just escaping from her own feelings.

So, he rather just keep helping her from behind the shadows as always and watch from afar, finding happiness with someone else.

‘Being her friend is already a luxury which i could never even imagine. One shouldn’t eat more then he could digest.

Get a hold of yourself, Cedrick. Once we return, our relationship will change.

She is the future empress and i can only bow to her, show her respect while hiding my emotions.’

Where to Eleanora, she was finally feeling relaxed.

Battlefield is the only place where she can unleash the madness of emotions inside her.

The reason why she is so eager to celebrate her coming of age ceremony is because it didn’t happened in her past life.

The ceremony was really simple, she got bleased by the priest and invite some close people’s for a meal.

As right after the ceremony, she got married to the emperor.

So, by celebrating her ceremony lavishly this time, she will feel ease that the future has really changed. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

She become friends with the brother of the person who planned to kill her.

Unlike before, Maid Jena didn’t appeared this time.

But, it was duke Ravens daughter Jennifer who has appeared this time.

Why did their plans changed?

It doesn’t matter to Eleanora as long as she is not involved in it.

‘He must have fallen for her already this time. He loved her when she was only a mere maid. But now she is Duke Raven’s daughter, a noble lady.’

Eleanora smilled bitterly as she thought about that.

‘I should focus on my knight training and being the commander of the third squadron like my last life, then become the duchess of Dalton.

I have no plans to get married or something like that anymore. Only if i could get back my children’s...’

Eleanora’s mind got distracted for a moment as she thought about her unborn children’s from her past life.

Which gave an opportunity to the Archer who was aiming at Eleanora for a long time.

Cedrick, who sensed the sound of a arrow being shoot again was late too react.

“Ele!! Watch out!”

He ran to her but he was still slow. This was the moment when Cedrick blamed himself for having such a useless power which can’t protect her in time.

She was surrounded by enemies and even if he pulls her up in air from the ground, she will directly get hit by another arrow.

‘Huh?!’

Eleanora who finally came back to her senses again didn’t had time to react and closed her eyes tightly.

‘It’s okay, I can heal myself-‘

But before the arrow could touch her, it was sliced into two pieces and went on two different directions.

Eleanora widened her eyes as she saw the arrow being sliced and then pass by her without touching her.

“Who dares to hurt my daughter?!”

Alexander’s chilly voice rang from behind and Eleanora’s blue eyes brighten up as she saw her father.

“Daddy!!”

In an instant, most of the barbarian’s fall on the ground as Alexander’s ice sword pierced through their bodies.

Specially the archer, who had his arrow aimed at Eleanora started to tremble and couldn’t even move because of Alexander chilly aura.

“Aaaugh!!”

The Archer yelled as the ice sword slashed off his neck and came back to Alexander’s hands again.

After it came to Alexander’s hands, the ice sword become the normal sword like before slowly.

As Alexander had a powerful amount of high mana inside him, he could easily turn his weapons into magic iteams by fusion them with his mana.

Eleanora looked up at her father, who came in a white horse, while his silver hair shone like gold brightly under the sunlight.

His shadow fall over her, protecting her from the bright sun and the dark world.

He pulled the horse leash to stop it in-front of Eleanora and look at her gently.

“Are you okay?”

Eleanora’s brighten eyes lit up more as she smiled brightly while answering.

“Yes, because Daddy saved Ele.”

Eleanora replied childishly like she used to answer when she was little.

In the past four years, the major change of her behaviour was she become more frank with her words.

She stopped hiding her emotions from her father and spoke everything that came to her mind and acted however she wanted.

Without thinking what others might say, leaving the perfect image she always wanted to create in her last life.

Because, it was the thing that ruined everything for her. She forgot her true self by creating a image that everyone liked.

This is why, Eleanora broke that image and started to become her true self like her childhood again.

As long as she stays true to herself, likes herself, it’s enough.

Her father loves her, the people of the Dalton’s and the knights loves her, Dominic, Liana, Cedrick, everyone loves her the way she is.

So, why does she needs to think about the society which licked her shoes in need and cheered up for her death once they found a new one? f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

They will never love you truly, no matter how hard you try.

They will keep finding faults, even if you do what they want, they will never be satisfied.

So, she should just care about what she wants because the people who loves her will keep loving her without the need to please them.

.....

...

“Long live the Dalton’s!!”

“Hail the future moon of our empire!!

“We won!! Yay!”

“All glory to our empire!!”

The people on the street kept cheering up as the knights who returned with victory after four long years.

The war hero, Duke Alexander Dalton was in-front of the parade while the others followed him from behind.

Eleanora and Cedrick was right after Alexander, they had a smile on their face as they waved at the cheering crowd.

Inside of a bar beside the streets where the parade was going on~

“Don’t they look kind of good together?”

“Who? The young duke and Lady Dalton?”

“But she is the future empress...”

“She is not yet. Didn’t you heard that, the Dalton’s wanted to break of the engagement?”

“But his Majesty went to meet her several times in the battlefield.”

“But we have heard she didn’t meet him even once, moreover rumours says that she is close with the young duke as their mana is compatible with each other.”

“They can make a fusion of their powers?! It has been so long since someone could do a magic fusion.”

“Yeah, that’s what everyone is talking about.”

“But what about his Majesty then?”

“Currently, Duke Raven is trying to make his daughter the empress.”

“The lost daughter, whom they found a few years ago?”

“Yes. The whole upper class is in chaos because of this.”

“But the lady and the young duke really looks good together. She is more relaxed with him then the emperor...”

Crack!

A glass fall on the ground with a loud shattering sound before the person who was speaking could finish his words.

Everyone’s attention fall on the tall and muscular man in a black cloak.

Dark aura was coming from him as he looked at the guys who was gossiping before.

They couldn’t see his face but they could feel that man’s killer gaze on them as he stood up.

He put a gold coin in the table to pay for the damage and bill.

Everyone sighed in relief as they thought the man was going out.

But they gulped in fear as the man stood in-front of them and narrowed his bloody red eyes to warn them.

“The empress seat only belongs to Lady Dalton, No one can change that!”
