Chapter 1.2

It was a pretty close guess. But it couldn’t last any longer.

“Sorry, Gerald.”

It was because Rosetta, who was behind him, appeared from the front in an instant.

“Those who see things that must not be seen must die.”

She laughed at Tom’s words from earlier and twisted one side of her mouth.

That was Gerald’s end.

Thirty minutes later…

The voice in search of Rosetta rang in one side of the Crown Prince’s Palace.

“Rosetta, Rosetta!”

“Wow, when and where did she fall asleep again!?”

Elia and Melanie, maids of the Crown Prince’s Palace, took quick steps to find Rosetta.

“It’s me!”

Rosetta showed up after a while.

Her less dry hair was tangled back and forth as if she had just washed it.

“Sorry, I accidentally fell into the pond. I will wash up real quick and change clothes…”

“That’s what I mean! He can’t wait! His Majesty is looking for you!”

“Yeah! I’ll go right away!”

Rosetta nodded forcefully and ran on. She was running so hard that she almost sprained her ankle. Looking at her back, Elia and Melanie clicked their tongues.

“Oh, she’s really weak and lax…”

“I’m wondering what to do if she gets bullied somewhere.”

“By the way, why haven’t we seen Tom? The maid was so angry. He took the dessert away.”

“It’s obvious, isn’t it? He must have run away again.”

It’s not like one or two servants of the Crown Prince’s palace fled, but once again… Melanie shrugged her shoulders.

***

‘Rosetta Mayfield, 20, made of the Crown Prince’s Palace, called ‘The Sunfish of the Imperial Palace.’

It was the information that defined the current Rosetta.

Rosetta from “This Life” to be exact.

However, the title defining her in her previous life was a little different.

‘Rosetta Mayfield, 30 years old, the strongest sword master of the Empire, the Prince’s direct escort knight, the Great Wizard’s friend, the only Sword master…’

There were countless titles other than these. Most of them were about praising her military skills and ability.

As can be seen from this, Rosetta was a knight who reached the level of a sword master in her first life. She was also an escort knight that stood by the crown prince for a long time.

The power to be the sole Sword master of the Empire, the wealth to buy several super-luxury town houses, and the honour of being the direct escort knight of the Crown Prince…

She got everything and achieved everything she wanted. There was no stain in her life.

But one day, Prince Armund died.

He was assassinated, and they couldn’t find the killer. Her title as the strongest knight, Rosetta, was ridiculed for not being able to protect the Crown Prince.

It was the first failure of her life.

Rosetta couldn’t accept it, so she went to Valerian, her childhood friend and the only monk in the Empire.

“Turn the clock around.”

Turn back time to when His Highness was still alive, Rosetta demanded so.

Valerianne tried to dissuade her, saying that she was an unwarranted wizard, but failed to break Rosetta’s stubbornness.

Eventually, a large-scale time magic was completed using the sword Armund gave her.

“I don’t know what the side effects are.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Time passed by, for the last time she said something with confidence.

What went wrong was ten years ago?

In any case, Rosetta, who became the knight again, did her best to protect Armund.

She always stood like a statue in front of his doorstep, killing and killing countless assassins. But what’s this, Armund is dead again. He was assassinated sooner than in his last life.

And as soon as he died, time went back. Rosetta turned 20 again without time to despair.

This was the side effect that Valerianne was worried about.

If Armund’s death is not prevented, time will go back unconditionally. Rosetta will just keep falling into a kind of loop.

In her third and fourth lives, Armund died. The timing and reasons were all different, and it was the same that Rosetta wasn’t able to save him from dying.

And as the fifth life begins, Rosetta has decided to do things a little differently.

‘I’ve always been his escort.’

However, there was a limit to the area where the guard could interfere. She, as a woman, was more so.

Armund wasn’t usually the type to carry an escort knight with him, and he was very reluctant to have an escort in his room. The maid was the only one who entered his room freely.

So Rosetta of “This life” became a maid.

It was not difficult to enter the palace, thanks to the help of the competent friend, Valerianne. But there was something really hard to do, so it was to protect Armund without revealing her ability.

“I wish I could speak to you and ask for your cooperation, but…”

This was already Rosetta’s strategy in her third life.

Turning the time around, if someone had said it, it would have been treated as vain nonsense, but if the speaker were her, the words were different.

The crown prince listened to Rosetta’s words and sent her out, saying, “I want to have time to think alone about this for a while.”

She then left the room, and he died of a heart attack less than an hour later.

“He’s a sunfish.”

Rosetta used to call the Prince this in her mind, much to her profanity.

In fact, as it is known, the real sunfish does not die that easily, so Armund is more than the sunfish.

If you tell them that they’re going to die later, they’ll die in surprise, and if they are left alone, they’ll die differently.

Anyway, it turned out that Rosetta couldn’t tell the truth because of his weak disposition. Instead, she decided to serve him as a maid and secretly remove all threats.

To make excuses when she is away, she plays a vulnerable maid who falls down whenever she has time. She also volunteered to be an exclusive maid to always stand by him.

It was annoying to secretly kill an assassin and clean up the body, but it wasn’t that difficult. Certainly, it was rather comfortable because the area that she could go through was wider than when she was an escort knight before.

However, there was something that bothers Rosetta more than anything these days.

“Your Majesty, you called…”

Before Rosetta finished her words, his stiff forearms, with veins visible clearly, wrapped around her slender waist.

“Rosetta…”

In an instant, she leaned back. At the same time, his hard chest muscles touched her back, and the unique strange scent brushed her nose.

“My Rose.”

His obsessive voice rang in her ears.

I thought he was going crazy waiting!

Rosetta groaned, without realizing it, as the ticklish touch of his lips touched her neck. When she trembled, the big man behind her gave a short laugh. She didn’t know where the excitement came from, but something poked her in the back.

This was her biggest concern.

Prince Armund, who was only blunt when she stood by as a guard, suddenly showed a strange attitude from a certain moment in this life.

“What, what are you doing?”

“What do you mean?”

Armund raised up the corners of his mouth and laughed. A deep voice continued softly.

It’s tempting.

Rosetta, deceived by a sullen, sensual smile, could not answer.

Her heart just screamed,

Don’t do this, Your Majesty!
