Chapter 284
TL: Zimmings
I didn’t miss Adrian’s change of expression.
“That’s right.”
Adrian didn’t answer, but the fact that his gaze changed was enough of an answer.
Empress Elsa is Aslan. In other words, she was the devil, Gremory. Therefore, it beca the secret of the imperial family that this story should never leak out.
It is clear that even the temple, they cannot open their mouths unless they are cornered.
The first significance of the temple’s existence is to protect this land from devils. But how can they reveal that the forr empress was the devil, and that Adrian, who they tried to make a holy emperor, had the blood of the devil.
‘That’s right, the efficacy of the Elsa tree.’
The leaves can be ground to make dicine, the bark can be used to protect the human body, and the Elsa tree that increases the divine power, the origin of mana.
All were related to Gremory’s almighty healing.
“Why did you lose your mory? Is it related to a case? Maybe soone… so…”
I couldn’t help but ask if he killed soone. He would not have lost his mory only because of one or two people.
Even Boone, who took countless lives, vaguely rembered his feelings for the ancient .
“Adrian…”
“I told you.”
He looked at and spoke.
“I’m not really what you think I am.”
“…….”
It was my first ti seeing him like this.
To , Adrian was kind, foolish, sweet, and a guy who didn’t know how to take care of himself. That’s why I have to take care of him, because he is so nice, so…
Adrian looked at , who hardened.
“You are deceived, Leblaine.”
“…….”
“Go back. I have nothing to tell you.”
He removed his hand from mine. He didn’t say anything and left.
I didn’t know what to say at this ti. All I knew was how to not lose a fight.
We kept eye contact. I licked my lips several tis and took a step back.
“Uh, that… you look very tired. Take a break.”
“Be careful.”
“…… Yes.”
I trudged out of the room with my head down. Our distance is far away now.
As I left the room, the sound of the door rang in the hallway.
‘Why did Adrian lose his mory?’
How many people did he kill? Why would he kill so many people?
Just then.
A small sound of water ca to my ears. Sothing passed by in front of my eyes.
‘Amand?’
Adrian’s divine power ca to mind. I stopped walking and looked at the door.
After staring at the door for a while, I grabbed my skirt tightly. Then, I quickly turned around and ran to open the door again.
Adrian, who was sitting with his head down, looked up at the loud sound. I opened the door, stomped my feet as I approached him, and grabbed his face.
“Say you don’t want to go.”
“…….”
“Say you didn’t deceive , you didn’t want to go away.”
Devils are influenced by the emotions of the owner. Adrian says he deceived , but if he did, Amand could not be such a pure being. It must have been influenced by its owner that it hovered around .
I said in tears.
“You don’t need a reason to kill soone. I know. I just want to hear it.”
“…….”
“It’s your job, Adrian.”
Adrian’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“I wanted to protect you.”
“……!”
I cried out loud.
‘Oh, I’m such an idiot.’
Adrian didn’t ask anything today. He didn’t ask anything like the inside story or the progress, even though he knew that the temple and I were facing each other.
He knew it.
“You’re looking out for .”
“…….”
“The reason why I didn’t get hit by a single assassin even though the temple was desperate was not because they didn’t send an assassin, but because you were protecting . Right?”
“…….”
“You killed people to protect . That’s why you lost your mory.”
“…….”
“Adrian!”
“…… Yes.”
Adrian buried his head in my arms and finally said.
“That’s right.”
What should I do with you?
“You’re….”
As I cried, he grabbed my waist and hugged .
“Let be by your side.”
What am I supposed to do with you, who is so stupid that he can’t even say I love you?
In the end, it was who raised both hands.
Ironically, it was his sincerity that made finally declare defeat.
“Tell you love .”
I’m still a coward, and I can’t take the last step because I’m still afraid to take other people’s hands.
“I love you.”
Just like that, he took the last step for , so we’ll be fine.
I laughed while crying. Just like him who’s silly.
“ too.”
Grabbing my neck lightly, he approached slowly. It was the first ti in my life that the breath of a man was getting closer. Strangely enough, I was able to close my eyes naturally.
As soon as I closed my eyes, his lips approached mine.
The first kiss in my fourth life was very sweet and l hot at the sa ti.

Adrian, who saw with a red nose, smiled and handed a handkerchief. I picked up the handkerchief with a sulky expression.
I blew my nose on the handkerchief and said.
“You were crying too.”
“That’s right.”
“Why do you keep smiling? It’s as if you’re teasing .”
He pulled with a smile and put on his lap.
“What are you doing!”
I tried to get up quickly, but he hugged and I had no choice but to sit down again. He said, while putting my tangled hair behind my ears.
“It’s only us here.”
“What if soone cos in?”
“Who would enter without my permission?”
“Oh…….”
“Isn’t it good because your lover is the prince?”
As he said with a smile, I tilted my head.
“Lover?”
“Didn’t you kiss ?”
“Not everyone who kisses can beco a lover.”
It’s the first kiss in my four lives, but at least I know that much.
“Leblaine.”
“Huh?”
“Can you refund a one-ti use item at your rcenary guild?”
“No.”
“Right?”
“Yes, never.”
“I can’t refund either.”
What?
I stared at Adrian in amazent.
“Lips are not objects. It’s not a one ti use either!”
“Then let’s use it again…”
He said and I slapped his lips.
“You must be crazy!”
As I got up, Adrian grinned.
‘You’re kidding !’
I stared at him sullenly.
“Hasn’t your personality changed a bit?”
“I think I explained it before. I’m a different person than you think.”
Then he leaned his face on my shoulder. I can feel his breath and he seed to be smiling.
I giggled, hugged him and stroked his head.
“So you’re different to .”
“Will you stay by my side?”
When I heard Adrian’s nice, no, gentle voice again, I beca a little playful.
“Well, I’ll think about it.”
“Aren’t you going to stay?”
He looked at and raised his eyebrows. My heart softened a little looking at his dazed puppy-like face.
The saying that beauty is a weapon was not a lie. When I heard that from my dad or brothers, I snorted, but when I saw Adrian, I unknowingly admitted it.
‘Ugh, you’re so handso.’
His soft blonde, and red eyes that seed to lt at my fingertips were truly a fantastic combination.
It seems that God carefully worked on his long, neat eyes, sharp nose, and his lips that are nicely positioned.
“It’s such a waste if you beco soone elses.”
When I playfully said it with an arrogant tone, he lowered his eyebrows again.
“That’s right, I’m yours. You can’t throw away.”
“I’ll think about it.”
“Tell how to avoid being thrown away.”
At this point, it is obvious why he is doing this. He must know that my heart is weakened by that expression.
I stroked his head as if he was a child.
“Tell about Aslan.”
“…….”
“Is Aslan your mother? Then you are born with devil’s blood.”
“The latter is right, the forr is wrong.”
What?
When I opened my eyes wide, he stared at .
“It is true that Empress Elsa is a devil nad Gremory, and that I am born with her blood. But Aslan is not the empress.”
“Are you saying Aslan isn’t Gremory? Or…”
“…….”
I took a deep breath.
“Is the Aslan that Mina summoned a fake?”
“You know best that she can’t summon the great devil of Gremory on her own.”
“…….”
“Leblaine, the summoned being is not Aslan. But, she has a very similar appearance to Aslan in the records. So what is that existence?”
In an instant, I rembered the devil record I had received from Storas.
[58th pillar. Its ability is . They can be disguised as the desired shape by the contractor…]
“Devil, Amy.”
“…….”
“Wait, if it’s Amy…!”
