Chapter 70
For the first ti, I found out that I could run out of breath in a dream.
The boy opened his eyes.
They were red, but his eyes were tinged with a hint of purple. It was like looking at an empty cave with no color. He wasn’t showing any emotions.
Ah.
I instinctively realized.
This was sothing I shouldn’t be seeing.
It wasn’t allowed for .
This was the boy’s.
Lightly, my eyes opened.
Even though it was dark like the dream’s scene, this was a familiar bedroom.
I was brought back to the vivid reality. Yes, I was dragged out.
There was no ti to co to my senses when cold energy suddenly poured down my body.
I reflexively tried to pull the blanket over , but my arm was held tight by soone holding down.
“…Heuk, Aedis?”
Aedis’s face was visible from above.
He sat on top of and grabbed my arm even tighter.
And he asked in a calm, yet slightly shrieking voice.
“Why?”
“…..”
“Why did you do that?”
Without any explanation added.
I also felt a bit embarrassed.
But more than that, I was angry.
“Tell , how much have you seen?”
The force holding my arm grew stronger. He seed to be desperately trying to suppress it, yet his hostility was evident.
“I…”
My arm was caught, but my throat was clogged.
I had fallen into a deep sleep, was forced to wake up, and had not yet co to my senses.
It was difficult to continue thinking because Aedis, who was on the verge of losing his mind, pushed .
Moreover, he didn’t even give ti to answer.
“You shouldn’t have seen it. You should have been content with just being peaceful like this.”
Suddenly, my body moved. The terrace door opened by itself and a cold, cold wind blew in.
Whoo.
Because I was wearing ordinary pajamas, the North’s cold felt even colder.
Though thanks to that, I was able to co back to my senses a bit.
“Are you going to drop ?”
“I can do worse than that.”
A normal Aedis would have never said that.
However, Aedis’s eyes, which had sunk in silence, were closer to purple than their usual blue light.
The boy who had been locked up in that cage used to confined animals seed to overlap with him now.
Red eyes with silver hair and a mysterious purple hue.
Neither Gilbert nor Regen, but a very familiar face.
It was Aedis from his childhood.
“Are you scared of now?”
I blinked my eyes slowly.
“Are you scared?”
How can I be scared? There was only one emotion I felt right now.
“I’m sorry.”
“Don’t play tricks…”
“Actually, I didn’t know what that was. I thought it was just a dream…No, it was my fault anyway.”
“…..”
“I’m really sorry for seeing it.”
I have no idea what happened.
I will have to go through my mory several tis and think about it before I can even make a guess.
But I didn’t even think about it right now.
I just focused on Aedis in front of .
Aedis’s lips twisted.
“It’s too late.”
“…..”
“When the sun cos up, go back to the capital imdiately. I’ll erase your mories as well.”
What?
It was such an extre treatnt.
He hadn’t even heard anything but my apology.
“Are you crazy?”
I spoke equally clearly and asked back.
“No.”
I was still caught by Aedis and the feeling of the railing on my back, which only had one layer of pajamas on, was indescribably eerie.
However, it wouldn’t be normal for to accept this result without knowing everything.
“You know I didn’t see it because I wanted to. I don’t know what happened either.”
“The process doesn’t matter. In the end, it’s the fact that you saw it.”
The mont Aedis looked in the eye, I hurriedly turned my head because I wanted to avoid it.
He’s a person who can kill people without touching them, but how do I know if it’s possible for him to erase mories just by making eye contact?
Sh*t. Even though Aedis was acting recklessly right now, there was really no way to fight back.
The floor that touched my bare feet was terribly cold like the railing.
It was like stabbing my foot violently with a needle. My brain was pounding.
As long as the blood of the beast was also hidden in the jewel box, the thods I could use were extrely limited.
“Promise you won’t erase my mories. We’ll talk about everything else later.”
Even though I was on the verge of losing my mories after being divorced, it was amazing that the only thing I could trust the most was my husband’s personality.
“You’re not in a position to threaten now.”
“Well, do you want to beg?”
What to do? Should I call Paimon?
「- Summon if you need ….You don’t have enough magic power. Then the spirit language…You couldn’t, ah. Just a little whistle will do then. “」
Why is it whistling?!
I couldn’t help but despair because I didn’t have enough magical power to summon a spirit and I couldn’t even speak the spirit language or whistle either.
In the middle of accepting the fact that there was no solution, my husband spit out lines like a villain.
“Can you beg until I’m satisfied, huh? Maevia.”
“You won’t even call by my nickna anymore? That was such a shallow kindness.”
My shoulders trembled. The cold pierced my bones.
I’m glad it’s over with a cold…
Then, suddenly, sothing popped inside .
“Ugh…”
I lowered my head because my hand was caught and I couldn’t stop it.
A bright red thing ran down my chin.
It was blood.
Quazik, quazik, sothing inside was crushed and broken.
Neither my bones nor my organs, it was the contract with the beast from several years ago.
-Girl, if my body is damaged, the damage will be yours.
Finally, a red light lit up in my mind as I rembered that last warning.
“Uhk…!”
My pajamas were stained with blood.
My consciousness faded, and I collapsed in front of the man who didn’t listen to and tried to erase my mories.
Even without magical powers, I could clearly see what was going on in a very distant place.
Soone had touched the tomb of the beast.
* * *
The tiger-shaped beast staggered.
The enemy was by no ans formidable, but the Master’s magic was not delivered at the most important ti.
This ant that Zaha’s owner was going through a lot of emotional turmoil.
Even though it could see Zaha’s magic fluctuating, it flew in without hesitation.
“Kitty, why don’t you do it right?”
The 180-cm tall woman with a greatsword larger than herself provoked Zaha with a grin.
She too was not in perfect condition, but she was still possessed with a thirst.
It wasn’t enough yet.
She had to hunt more and tear more.
“If you’re not going to be fun like this, maybe I’ll eat you up?”
Thud!
Shaula’s greatsword stuck to the ground. Even though it was simply put down, the dry ground cracked as if to prove its weight.
Her eyes glead like a beast.
“Don’t just tell to get out of here all the ti. I can’t even properly fight the subject that I’ve been attacking because I don’t like it. F***, you think I’m funny?”
Zaha growled. It was a pitiful struggle for Shaula.
“This land belongs to the Grand Duchess? So what? Is that bitch stronger than ?”
Zaha lowered her posture while Shaula strutted.
The amount of magical power remaining in Zaha’s body was extrely small, and even that was rapidly evaporating.
But Zaha never backed down before finishing a task.
Shaula drew her sword as if she was ready to rush again.
“Tell the Grand Duchess that this is my hunting ground.”
It was after a very short ti that the conclusion was reached.
Shaula sang a song about a roasted tiger when she discovered a mysteriously shining barrier behind Zaha.
“…Wait a minute.”
It was more interesting than beheading Zaha, so Shaula jumped into the crater created by the sword attack without hesitation.
She suddenly found that the barrier within the crater that had attacked with Zaha was not working.
Through the cracks in the damaged barrier, sothing wrapped in a soft cloth could be seen.
As the barrier opened, a sweet scent began to spread around her, as if it was emanating from sothing, and she was alerted.
It was the first scent she had ever slled as a Shaula who enjoys hunting and walking in and out of uninhabited lands.
“Is there sothing interesting hidden here?”
After Shaula had thrust the sword into the crack that had just ford and stabbed it a few tis, the barrier completely lost its function.
She looked at it as if possessed within the broken barrier.
Even though it was wrapped in cloth, her energy was being restored just by getting closer.
It was like a relic with God’s blessing or leather with a devil’s curse.
A strange possessiveness squird within her.
I want it.
She didn’t know what it was, but she was convinced that it would be more valuable than any famous sword or treasure she had ever owned.
