Say It Out Loud | A Knight's Letters for His Liege

D-8

Log 46,

He's at the palace, whilst I am here in another location whereas I cannot be near him. I have been assigned to a mission with Rosalyn and Mary. Another looting, I suppose. I'm writing in a spare note Rosalyn gave me since I left my letter box back at the villa.

But besides that, I'm quite envious.

His Imperial Majesty gets to be with him. I— I know it's childish but I also feel a bit sad. Because I feel like he is into those kind of guys, more than what I am. I think he likes them righteous, rich, passionate and selfless. I have enough allowance for a lifetime and I am my Liege's knight, however, I cannot compare to that of a sovereign emperor.

Alberu does seem better. In many aspects, is he.

I'm jealous about it. He is strong, and attractive. Rich and quite passionate, perfect and hardworking. Everything a person would want in a lover.

... I can't see myself except in strength, hardworking and passion. But, if it meant to overthrow the realms of Gods and alike, I would do it for him. If he says to look for him when he is lost, I'll look every direction and corner.

I am just that devoted to him. But no matter what, I'll love him even if the sky falls and the ground breaks, the oceans rise and fell on heaven's gates.

I love him. I really, really do.

I'd flip the universe, if that's what he wanted to.

Log 47,

It's the second day of the mission, but it's okay. We will be finished within the matter of approximately five hours, according to Rosalyn.

I wonder, is he alright? Is he eating a lot? Slacking, as he says? I wonder and wonder. I wanna see him, but I have to finish the task he gave me—us, I meant.

Mary keeps on looking at me with an odd expression. Hm? I don't know why but she squints her eyes at times. Almost as if she is in disbelief that I exist.

But that's nothing, I really want to know what he is doing? Perhaps, sleeping? Hm...

We'll be leaving in a few minutes. I'll be seeing him again. I feel a bit nervous but excited at the same time. Like the stream in the forest of darkness, it was a new one. The dead mana lake that used to be there had been absorbed fully and it was made to a prettier and beautiful lake. He built a big pavilion there for all of us. It's quite a nice sight.

One day, maybe one day, I'll take him out there for a date. Well, if that day ever comes.
