Chapter 149: 149

The seemingly short night had eventually passed.

And fortunately, no one had even suspected about last night. The Baron mentioned that he had gone to look for him, but he soon fell for Raven’s slick remark that he had gone to bed early since he was exhausted.

Unlike the bitter gale of winter, the procession moved along smoothly. There was no such encounter with the bandits and not a single avalanche had interfered their way.

“There we go!”

Molitia opened the window of the carriage slightly at the voice of the leading driver. Raven quickly hugged her as the fierce wind shoved her back into the carriage.

“We’re finally here.”

Raven moved his eyes towards the window. Right in front of him, he could already see the frozen land—Marquis Werner’s estate.

The carriage had to run along quite a distance even after entering the estate.

The view of the estate over the window was rather different from what she had drawn before. A barren land that was completely covered in white had been depicted on the map. However, currently to her, it seemed like a new world of sugary treats.

From the structure of the house right up to the road—when she turned her eyes everywhere, the capital and the other parts were absolutely standing out. The snow-covered rooftops were built in a different structure in order to bear the weight.

Also, it wasn’t just the rooftops. There were roads to prevent slipping and those walls that kept the warmth from leaking out.

It was a village that had thoroughly displayed their efforts to live on such a barren land.

After passing through the village, she began to see a large mansion in a short distance. The mansion that had been built on that low hill was just something like a fairy tale known from when she was young.

“Welcome to the Marquisate of Werner.”

The butler of the Marquis had welcomed them as they passed by the main gate. He skillfully ordered the servants behind him to move the luggage from the following carriage.

“It must have been hard for you to reach here, so allow me to guide you inside.”

The couple immediately moved following the butler who had taken the lead. As she entered the residence of the Marquis, a cozy-filled hall was eventually unraveled.

It was a different view than when she had seen it from outside. If the white mansion was like a house that was built upon snow crystals, the inside, on the other hand, felt as if it had been moved to an antiquated castle.

There were little windows embedded in the arched house. They were quite small to enjoy the scenery, but it was suitable to keep the warmth from seeping out.

Furthermore, the landscape from that small window came with a unique feeling as well since it was all white.

Molitia, who was still following the butler, suddenly shivered a little.

“Is it very cold?”

“It’s quite alright.”

Raven, who noticed her small movement, immediately hugged her shoulder. Molitia smiled slightly as his warm hands wrapped over her shoulders.

“But I feel a little sleepy.”

“You kept sleeping inside the carriage as well.”

“Maybe I’ve overworked myself just a little bit.”

“You’d better get in the room and have a rest, then.”

At the same time as Raven’s voice sounded a little rushed, the butler’s footsteps came to a halt.

“Here you are. Please use it as comfortably as your own room and if anything were to happen, please feel free to pull the strings that are provided.”

“I’ll do that.”

It was only after confirming that the couple had entered the room did the butler turn himself around. As soon as she entered, Molitia’s cheeks were heated up by the sudden gust of air.

She doffed her jacket and placed it on a chair before sitting on the bed. She had said that it was okay, but as soon as she saw the bed, her decision was completely shaken. Her eyes naturally closed themselves as her fingertips began melting amidst the warmth.

“Are you sleepy?”

“Yes, a little.”

“Then, sleep for a little while.”

“But now that we’ve arrived, I need to greet the Marquis…”

“I’ll just go by myself. The Marquis would definitely understand since it was quite strenuous to get here.”

Raven gradually laid her on the bed. As she was already feeling sleepy, Molitia did not refuse his touch at all. In fact, her long eyelids began to close when her head touched against the pillow.

“So, don’t worry and just sleep tight.”

“Then, I’ll sleep a little. Please wake me up when you’re back.”

“Sure.”

He pulled up the blanket at her feet before laying it thickly over her body. A smile was drawn to Raven’s mouth as Molitia snuggled herself into her blanket amidst the warmth.

“Good night, Molitia.”

Raven kissed her forehead before he finally stood up from his seat.
