Soone called .
For so reason, I wasn’t surprised because I thought it would be like this in the storyline.
I slowly turned around. The eve festival, which began at sunset, was already painted with a dim darkness.
Of all the broken lights by the beast, so light glimred on the face of the man who called .
[Favorability 20%]
But I was able to distinguish the MLs even in the dark.
“Marquis.”
It was my first ti calling Vuinter like this, so I felt very strange.
‘I was talking down to you like that a while ago.’
Now that the masquerade was over, it was a big deal.
While I was practicing my unspeakable “The Marquis,” Vuinter walked quickly and arrived in front of
the color of his eyes, is not unfamiliar to him, unlike his title
“You helped today... Thank you very much.”
He paid a silent tribute.
‘Well, I was expecting this.’
Now that I have quite a hard mode hit bar, I replied without a big deal.
“I didn’t co out to help the marquis. So you don’t have to thank .”
Smooth honorifics flowed out compared to the awkwardness I felt.
“That’s right, but..... “
“.....”
“You’ve saved people by force. Including .”
He looked up and glanced at my hand, which had been lying gently. Following the gaze, my eyes slowly widened, as I inadvertently lowered my head.
It was only then that I noticed that my hands were shaking intermittently.
‘I know. I overstepped myself with this low body.’ I didn’t have enough arm strength to shoot the crossbow.
But it wasn’t just because I was overdoing it was too much. I tried to pretend to be calm, but in fact I was more scared of the situation than anyone else.
The shadows of the huge chicken feet that were held high to crush and the countless monsters that ran toward only. The body and hands that were moving frantically out of my control.
As the spine-chilling scenes rose again, my eyes closed without realizing it. I didn’t show up as much as I could, but I held my trembling hands back and hid them.
“I’m sure anyone else would have do that. I don’t care...”
“No.”
Vuinter denied his desperate pretense of nothing.
“No one would have been as courageous as Lady. Despite being such an easy-to-deal beast.... ”
He suddenly stopped talking and frowned at the burrow. Like soone who’s suffering from sothing.
‘...do you feel guilty for hiding your magic and not doing anything?’
I didn’t quite understand the plight of Vuinter. What’s wrong with being selfish for own safety? In addition, he did what he could.
Just as I saved my life by leaving myself to the system and saving the lives of extras that the ga had arranged.
“If each of us did the best we could do on the spot, that’s it.” I shrugged back casually.
“I could have done nothing without the crossbow and been chased by the beast.”
“.....”
“Marquis also tried to save the children’s lives as much as you could. I can’t stand in front of the prince because I’m scared.”
It was a bit funny because it was perfectly true even though I said it out loud.
I would have never happened to interrupt the prince’s orders as before if Vuinter had not gone first, and I had never had a ball to shoot and kill.
At that mont, the dark blue pupil, which was staring silently at giggling with a smile on my face, shook violently.
And...
[Favorability 24%]
His head twinkled.
4%. I was belatedly awakened by a fairly large increase.
‘...you’ll turn around when you see the FL soon, so it’s no good to keep bumping into him.’
The laughter that had been in my mouth died
“...Thank you for the complint. Then, I’ll go first.”
I hastened to finish the conversation.
In fact, I was too tired to stand any longer.
‘So the only one who thanked for saving their lives is Vuinter only.’
Since he is a normal ML, I knows he is not, but he still has lingering feelings. I was about to turn around with a short bow.
“Lady.”
The hot palm grasped at the arm in a hurry.
I turned my head angrily and Vuinter stared at with an unknown look.
“The reply you sent....was well received.”
The lips that had been hesitating for a mont opened, and he whispered in a small voice so that only I could hear them.
“...may I, too, reciprocate your help today?”
It was then.
“Penelope!”
Soone from the side called in a stiff, stiff voice.
[Favorability 27%]
His darkness around him more likable than he looked. However, I could imdiately tell who he was by hearing his uncomfortable voice.
“Excuse . What are you doing to my sister?”
“Leonard.”
Indeed, this ti, Leonard appeared as if it was the day of the gathering of the male owners.
‘I thought you were going first..’
He was a man who showed up at an amazing mont, when he left cold-heartedly even when I grabbed his sleeve.
I was embarrassed by the way pink hair ca out with frowned eyes and stared at the empty space.
“Co on, Penelope.”
Leonard called on the edge of his guard against Vuinter holding my arm.
But Vuinter wouldn’t let go of my arm. Leonard’s spirit turned sour at the sight.
‘Why do I feel a sense of deja vu?’
A such incident occurred to at the field a while ago.
I was caught between them and looked around, and soon shook Vuinter’s arm gently.
“...Marquis.”
Unlike the other MLs, Vuinter was a guy with power was not too strong for . It’s not too strong just like I did with Derek and Eclis, as I can just use full strength. But I didn’t want to go that far with the only ML who was courteous to .
“Marquis...?”
Nevertheless, Vuinter remained stay still.
I looked up at him with wide eyes. Leonard’s voice grew crooked.
“She told you to let go”
“....”
“Ha! Don’t let go?”
After all, when Leonard, a hot-tempered man, gritted his teeth and strode to catch . Finally, the arms that were caught were loosened. He seed to give up, as his touch had no strength. As soon as Vuinter’s bondage was lifted, this ti Leonard snatched away as if he had been waiting. And he pushed hard behind the lantern, as if he were hiding .
Now he had nothing more to distance himself from, and with a twisted smile, he was sarcastic at Bonnter.
“Excuse , Marquis. You’re trying to do sothing about a naive kid who doesn’t know anything, but think about your age, huh?”
I opened my mouth in consternation at his rude remarks. I unwittingly raised my fist and slapped him on the shoulder.
“Are you crazy? It’s not like that!”
“You keep quiet! You really not afraid of anything...!”
Leonard shouted at my response.
My annoyance soared to the top of my head.
“If you’re gonna say that, let go of this. I’m going alone.”
After reciting it coldly, he twisted his caught hand wildly, and shouted hurriedly, wondering if he was embarrassed.
“Anyway, you don’t have a choice, don’t get near him anymore!”
“You’re really...”
“Oh, let’s go, let’s go! Oh, no, I don’t like your temper...”
As if he were going to go, he went ahead of and complained.
‘Who’s the one to say that?!’ I was suddenly filled with swear words because I weren’t there because of his temper, but it fell down.
This is because I still felt a keen eye on the back of my head. Tuddle, half taken away by Leonard, I glanced back.
Vuinter, who was still standing there and looking at , flapped his lips when his eyes t with
“...I look forward to your reply, Lady.” I was surprised by his persistence.
When I looked at him with big eyes.
Suddenly, my steps stopped sharply and I heard a mountain-breaking sound coming from the front.
“Oh, co on! There will be no answer, so don’t waste your ti...!”
“No, I’m fine.”
He hurriedly cut off Leonard’s words and gave the answer with his own mouth. Fortunately, the mouth of fear was closed, perhaps because of the word of denial.
“I told the information guild that I would not receive an answer to return.”
I laughed again and again, laughing at what I had said to him before. When I put on a mask, I couldn’t even smile. And I thought again looking at the blue pupils shaking once again.
[Favorability 26%]
As I have done before, I’m surprised that I’m getting a boost from the firm refusal.
It was when I was dragged out of the outdoor concert hall by Leonard.
“Lady!”
“Penelope!”
Emily and the Duke, who were nervously standing near the entrance, saw and ran with joy.
“Are you all right, lady?”
“Are you hurt anywhere? Huh?” They took turns looking into my body.
I replied with a puzzled look at the unexpected hospitality.
“I’m fine. I’m not hurt anywhere.”
“You don’t have to worry. Maybe it’s because you didn’t see this girl wiped out...”
Leonard, who was trying to be sarcastic as a habit, imdiately shut his mouth at the sight of the Duke glaring his eyes.
The expression of the disgruntled frown was a little worth seeing.
I turned my head and looked at the Duke again.
“Is father okay? What about Emily?”
“I had to stop by the cabana in the middle of the party, so I fortunately avoided the ss.”
“I’m fine, too, thanks to your errand!”
“Thank God. What about my first brother?”
“He went to interrogate the criminals with the Crown Prince’s Highness.”
I didn’t really care where he went, but I asked him out of courtesy.
“I’m glad you’re not hurt. Do you know how surprised this father was when I heard the news?”
The Duke gave a steady answer and looked at with a worried look.
