widely.
The teacup was placed on the table.
Roman Dmitry couldn’t take his eyes off the teacup with the wrinkles that had formed on his fine and beautiful hands.
“It’s herbal tea. It is said to be good for anti-aging, so I drink it every day, and my son is the same as he was 30 years ago.”
Mother laughed.
Seeing her sitting across from me, I took a sip of my teacup.
It was warm.
The fact that her mother and father were still in good health, and the fact that they could see each other again, made Roman Dmitry feel warm even in her heart.
After hearing the truth about Dmitry, the thing I was most worried about was the health of my parents.
It would not be strange at all to return to the arms of nature after 30 years, but the traces of the years were evident from the parents and the complexion was rather better than before.
Romero Dmitry said.
“Don’t talk. Your mother said that my son would definitely come back, and for the past 30 years, she’s been feeding me dozens of healthy things a day. look at this At my age, everyone has to lie sick in the corner of the room, but I didn’t have enough energy, so I started working at the forge again. It’s not like it used to be, but when you come back, I wanted to make a nice sword.”
“Honey, too. Still, I was right. We are in good health, so how good is it to see your son?”
“It’s not like that, I guess.”
parents’ words.
emotions were rushed.
To him when he was living as Baek Jung-hyuk, his parents were cruel beings who forced the harshness of bloodlines.
This life was different.
He did not abandon himself because he was Dmitry’s fool, and he believed in and supported him until the end, no matter how reckless he was.
The present Roman Dmitry was completed by his parents.
So, when he arrived in Dmitry, Roman Dmitry postponed everything, saying that he would meet his parents first.
Roman Dmitry said.
“… … thank you.”
“Thank you. what?”
“Just thank you for everything, everything.”
it was embarrassing
He wanted to speak softly like other children, but it was not an easy problem to solve the hard-spoken tone. Still, I just wanted to say thank you.
When he made the decision to leave Dmitry, Roman Dmitry was a disloyal man who never told his parents anything.
As time went on, I became interested in that fact, and I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet my parents like this.
“Roman.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you for coming back, I love you.”
“… … Yes?”
eyes widened
love you
It wasn’t fatherly, but Romero Dmitry scratched his head.
“It’s a person. There are things you can’t say if you run out of time. I really wanted to tell you 30 years ago how much I love my son, and I really regretted missing that opportunity. Know my sincerity.”
Moment.
Emotions churned.
saying I love you.
It was an unacceptable word in Roman Dmitry’s life.
I licked my lips and wanted to convey the same feelings, but again, this was not an easy problem.
Perhaps it was funny that Roman Dmitry looked so hesitant, and his parents burst into laughter and continued their daily conversation.
It was a very friendly and happy time. The mere fact that she could be reunited with her parents like this gave Roman Dmitry confidence that he had made the right choice to return to Dmitry.
Then suddenly.
Roman Dmitry asked.
“How is Hans?”
at that word.
The parents’ faces hardened.
Romero Dmitry took a sip of tea, then carefully set the mug down and said:
“Go back to your room. You can get to know Hans there.”

squeaky.
opened the door
When I checked the familiar space, the first emotion that came to mind was relief.
“… … ah.”
30 years.
30 years have passed.
Just as the capital of Dmitry had changed to a different shape than before, this space should have been applied with the passage of time. Yet it was the same as before.
It was a cleanliness that would not be maintained if it was not cleaned every day, and Roman Dmitry walked into the room and recalled the memories of the past that permeated this space.
‘Hans. You are the same as before and now.’
It was fortunate.
Details that Hans would not have known, such as things arranged on the desk, furniture arrangement, bedding, etc., melted in.
It was certain.
It was Hans’ hand.
Hans, who was as worried as his parents, was still cleaning his room every day even after 30 years had passed. His warm hands swelled with emotion.
Roman Dmitry wasn’t a very emotional person, but after meeting Dmitry’s people, he felt like a completely different person.
tidy room.
It was a human heart.
The heart of a human being who waited and longed for himself and worked hard every day so that this space would not change for 30 years.
Hans.
It was special to Roman Dmitry.
He brought him into the fence before his parents, and he never thought of him as a common servant in his heart who thought of him. I wanted to meet Hans right away.
When I was living with him, I thought that his daily nagging was annoying, but now I can listen to him all day.
That was then.
Kudang!
“Woah, His Majesty the Emperor?!”
It was the sound of something being dropped.
When I turned my head to check the owner of the sound, a woman who appeared to be in her mid-30s showed a surprised face.
But why?
Items dropped by women.
As soon as he confirmed that they were tools for cleaning, Roman Dmitry’s heart suddenly started beating like crazy.
It was ominous.
After a while, I remembered my father’s words.
Go back to the room and you’ll find out about Hans.
Roman Dmitry asked with a cold face.
“Who are you?”
* * *
Hans is a man of great responsibility.
He never entrusted his duties to others, and later, as the work with Roman Dmitry increased, he hired additional people, but never cleaned the room himself.
I really liked Hans like that. Looking at Hans’ unchanging appearance, his warm heart made me smile.
so that.
It had to be hostile.
To Roman Dmitry’s cold question, the woman showed a slightly happy response.
“His Majesty the Emperor. Don’t you remember me? Hannah, the granddaughter of Baron Hans.”
“… … Hannah?”
“Yes. Before leaving Dmitry, I heard from my grandfather that every year he took care of my birthday.”
I remembered
Harrison, son of Hans.
Harrison had a daughter, and for the granddaughter, whom Hans saw as Jin-Ok-Yeop (金枝玉葉), Roman Dmitry threw a grand party in person.
It was an annual event. Dmitry’s nobles attacked Hans with gifts to impress, and with Roman Dmitry’s help, his granddaughter was able to attend a prestigious academy.
However.
I couldn’t be happy at all.
The fact that his granddaughter was here to replace Hans meant the brutal reality that Hans was not in good shape.
Hannah said.
“You must be wondering where your grandfather is. In fact, even three years ago, my grandfather had unconditionally cleaned the Emperor’s room by himself. As a granddaughter of my grandfather, I also accepted this as a family business.”
10 years ago.
Hannah graduated from the academy with great grades.
In fact, she had held various administrative positions in the Dmitry Empire, but as she experienced many things, she felt that she wanted to inherit her grandfather’s work.
Some said that the existence of a servant was insignificant.
However, Grandpa knew that he was respected by the Dmitry people as a servant, so he wanted to inherit it and contribute to the Dmitry family like his grandfather.
Dmitry.
The country was worth it.
Hannah learned her grandfather’s work in that way because she was a family that gave people the ability to lead a peaceful life.
Roman Dmitry’s reaction.
I was happy.
To the fact that he remembers his grandfather, to the fact that he reacts hostilely to his absence.
Hannah said happily.
“I will guide you to Grandpa. If you see His Majesty, Grandpa will surely really like it.”

Moved place.
It was a modest room.
Unlike being in the middle of the capital, Hans was lying on the bed in the plain room.
“… … Woah, are you majestic?”
“Don’t get up.”
Hans shook his head hard.
His face was different from before.
His face was halved and his energy weakened, and his hazy eyes made it impossible to even tell if he was looking at Roman Dmitry properly.
Sad emotions flooded in. It was a moment when he realized once again that he had returned too late, and that 30 years is an insignificant amount of time for a human being.
“… … Hans, are you okay?”
sat next to
As Hans lay down and looked at him warmly, Hans spoke softly with a mouth that was clenched because he had no teeth.
“It’s all right. How is your Majesty the Emperor? It must have been a lot of inconvenience because there was no one to take care of it, but when I thought of His Majesty the Emperor, I was not alone. Do you market a lot because you have come a long way? I’ll tell my granddaughter right now to prepare lunch. The food that His Majesty the Emperor enjoyed deliciously. By the way, why is your face so bruised? Didn’t I always tell you to take care of yourself?”
The horse bit its tail.
Not knowing what to say, Hans continued to speak, even though it seemed like it was going to end.
“Your Majesty, do you remember? When I suddenly asked the oldest person in town to guide me, I knew something was wrong with the master. But as I watched how they dealt with that vicious horde at once, I realized that a special change had taken place in the master I had been serving.”
It was strange.
The name has changed.
Hans’s blurred eyes stayed somewhere beyond his memory.
“People have talked a lot about the change in the behavior of the master since then. I admired that Dmitry’s eldest son had changed, but I knew from the beginning how good he was. When the mastermind was young. Whenever I eat something delicious, he always puts it in my mouth. I still can’t forget how sweet those snacks were back then.”
“His Majesty the Emperor. I’m finally seeing you. Really, I couldn’t sleep well at night because I was worried about His Majesty’s Majesty.”
“young master. Are you the master?”
Hans’ words.
The point of view kept changing.
Roman Dmitry didn’t question those words, but held Hans’s wrinkled hand and listened quietly.
years with Hans.
Roman Dmitry remembers life after possession, but Hans has had memories of himself since Roman Dmitry’s childhood.
And I waited 30 years. In the heart of waiting for him and cleaning the room every day, the sincere heart of a person who always put him first.
swallowed the sorrow
I just wanted to show you a good side.
When I called him Majesty the Emperor, he answered me as an emperor, and when I called him the master, he answered me as a master.
smart.
“Your Majesty, you are late.”
The sun went down.
At Hannah’s voice, Roman Dmitry did not take his eyes off Hans.
“Okay. I will stay here today.”
“… … All right.”
Now is.
Only the moment in front of you was important.
I continued to listen to Hans.
30 years.
Now that he has been waiting for 30 years since he disappeared, how many things do Hans want to say?
“His Majesty the Emperor. Really too please. If they disappear without a word, what are the people left behind?”
“sorry.”
“Next time, don’t do that.”
“i get it. Don’t promise me.”
it was the same
As always, Hans’ nagging continued.
Roman Dmitry looked at Hans, who was joking around, and did not let go of his warm hand.
so all night long
Until the sun goes down and the sun comes up again.
Roman Dmitry stood by Hans’s side.

tweet.
There was a sound of birdsong outside the window.
The bright sunlight shone brightly on the face of Hans, who had slept peacefully without worries for a long time.
I smiled softly and fell asleep.
With that happy face, Roman Dmitry lowered his head.
