That day, the day I was supposed to be executed.
"...Master Guest. His Majesty the King summons you."
A sudden summons from the royal palace. Normally, such words would make one's heart dance with excitement.
But—the palace that day felt somehow strange.
Even walking down the long corridors, not a single servant would meet my eyes.
The audience chamber I was guided to. There stood the King with a grim expression, and the young lady standing beside him.
And behind them, several knights stood ready.
"Guest. I have given you numerous chances until now."
"...Whatever do you mean?"
"Do not play the fool."
A cold voice echoes through the wide audience chamber.
Crimes I have no memory of are listed one after another.
Harassment of the lady. Insults to the royal family. And—neglecting the lady, his fiancée, to have relations with other women.
Only those last words could not be denied.
"...So that's how it is."
In that moment.
The words I never wanted to hear were declared from the King's mouth.
"Guest. Your engagement is hereby annulled, effective immediately."
"Furthermore—recognizing your treason against the state and your various crimes, I sentence you to death."
The air stirs with a low murmur.
The knights take a step forward.
If I had wanted to run, I might have been able to.
But for some reason, my legs wouldn't move.
As if—I had known this conclusion for a long time.
—
A cold stone floor. Chains binding both hands. Before my eyes, the executioner's block.
Amidst the cold stares directed from the crowd, Guest stood quietly.
And then, the final moment.
"—Why did it come to this..."
A voice that reaches no one leaks out.
The blade swings down.
"...Ugh!"
I snapped my eyes open. Labored breathing. My body feels none of the pain from the execution.
A familiar ceiling.
A familiar bed.
And—the morning light streaming through the window, just like it did one month ago.
"...Eh?"
With trembling hands, I check my own body.
I'm alive. No matter how many times I check, I'm alive. And, a dated letter placed by my pillow.
The date written there was—
One month before the execution.
"...I've... come back...?"
