“Your wife instructed me to boil the moon flowers for a long time and feed them to Izanne.”

 

“Nat poisoning.”

 

As she said, the fact that a person could be poisoned to Nat was not widely known.

 

Nat from cheap bricks that have been left unattended for a long time can kill people.

 

“How did my wife know that?”

 

Denver smoothed his lips and smiled curiously.

 

The more he sees her, the more he knows her, the more interesting she becomes.

 

He can’t even understand why she’s named the ‘the curse of Bevenia’.

 

“Your Highness, I was aware that her ability was extraordinary, but…….”

 

“…….”

 

“She even made the empress’ person into her own in an instant. It’s not just a matter of excellence.”

 

“It’s a useless worry, Harton. You’re afraid I might die.”

 

There was nothing wrong with what his loyal subordinate said.

 

Now she’s been obedient due to their contract marriage, but a woman with extraordinary ability can be a threat.

 

“Ha… I am worried about your life? I’m worried that she, no, your wife, will ruin things that we’ve been fighting for a long time.”

 

Perus, the black lion supporting the House of Noctis and the black lion defending the empire.

 

Perus’ power from generation to generation gave its descendants a strong physique and extraordinary sword skills that no one could match.

 

And he is the one who has inherited the perfect power of Perus.

 

“Rather than worrying about my safety, it is faster to worry about when my wife will beg for her life.”

 

Black aura.

 

Black aura, the perfect power of darkness that is neither impure nor pure.

 

It was a very rare power even in the Noctis family.

 

“Did you learn more about Flotty?”

 

“Yes, but that’s all that’s known in society. In particular, nothing is known about the ability she is using now.”

 

“As expected, she’s a good card.”

 

There were only three people who knew that Denver was the full incarnation of Perus.

 

Denver, Harton, and Entry Noctis, the Crown Prince of the Olan Empire.

 

“Be careful. If the secret falls into the ears of the empress, it will cause a big stir.”

 

“You worry about my body more than I do. Don’t go anywhere and die with a single stroke.”

 

That’s a very hurtful thing to say.

 

Seeing Harton with a straight face, Denver issued a congratulatory order.

 

“The Grand Duchess tamed her dog.”

 

She was a really interesting woman.

 

He thought she was just the hidden daughter of Bevenia. Yet, didn’t she use some pretty useful tricks to save the lives of his knights?

 

Besides, she asked if he was okay last night.

 

Me, Denver Noctis.

 

“Hah.”

 

He burst into laughter.

 

“Haha.”

 

Seems he found an interesting toy.

“…I think it’s too much for a place to stay for a while.”

 

How long did I sleep in the carriage?

 

When I heard that we had arrived, I woke up and set my feet in Harta, the capital of the Olan Empire.

 

“You have great confidence. What if it’s not for a while?”

 

“It would be fortunate if I could stay in the capital even when His Highness is not with me.”

 

Anyway, I can’t get along with this guy.

 

I didn’t mean to think I’d get close to the Grand Duke while I was being held hostage.

 

Shouldn’t we stop this damn fight to at least look like a friendly couple to others?

 

“Come here.”

 

It was not as extravagant as the castle I saw in Perus, but the mansion in the capital was still very beautiful and luxurious.

 

In particular, the fountain located in the center across the garden looks like a statue of an angel.

 

“From now on?”

 

“There are a lot of eyes.”

 

When I reached out my hand with an unwilling face, he kissed the back of my hand lightly and drew a line.

 

“Why don’t you smile?”

 

“Can’t you see my happy face?”

 

They had a quiet wedding, but all the servants of the Grand Duke were in an uproar, saying it was romantic.

 

They thought their master, who was not interested in women, would die alone for the rest of his life.

 

Not all of the servants were friendly to me, though.

 

“She’s the princess of Bevenia, right?”

 

“The princess? The cursed child?”

 

“That’s all? I heard that the Duke of Bevenia participated in the treason.”

 

“How could he… marry someone like that?”

 

“It’s not love. She’ll take care of him at least at night to live.”

 

“Don’t talk about the treason of Bevenia. Your neck could be cut off.”

 

“Hmph… was this a secret?”

 

“Be more alert. This is a battle between the Empress Dowager and our Grand Duke. The other nobles know nothing.”

 

Dirty rumors always exist wherever I go.

 

That kind of rumor would have been better. It’s okay if it’s a ridicule or a scandal that will end once you buy it.

 

I heard that the princess of Bevenia uses a strange ability.

 

I heard the Grand Duke is using her.

 

It’s not that there’s a rumor going around that contains the truth.

 

As soon as I walked by holding hands with the Grand Duke, the servants bowed down and chatted as soon as we turned around.

 

“They don’t have a good mouth.”

 

“They must educate themselves.”

 

“We are in love.”

 

I slipped a word so that the butler who was following me could hear me.

 

It’s no good living a poor life even in a place like this. It’s a place I will leave when I come back to reality anyway.

“I’m looking forward to the bedroom. Your Excellency too, right?”

 

“You, I’m upset. That you still call me that.”

 

“……what?”

 

No way. No way.

 

He naturally hugged me around my waist and approached me and whispered.

 

“Call me by my name, Flotty.”

 

“…….”

 

“You promised me that.”

 

If other people hear it, they would think it’s a really sweet conversation between lovers.

 

I looked at the butler and the maid who followed us and raised the corners of my mouth as if I was very happy.

 

“I told you I am still embarrassed.”

 

“How long are you going to make it difficult for me?”

 

I’m so upset that I can’t hold it in.

 

The Grand Duke acted shamelessly without putting a drop of saliva on his lips.

 

“You may leave now.”

 

The Grand Duke, who guided her to the bedroom, asked the butler and maid who were following us to leave. Finally, we are the only ones left.

 

“You can’t control your expression already?”

 

“I’m trying. I’m not as good as Your Excellency.”

 

As I admired the spacious and colorful bedroom, the Grand Duke hugged me at the waist from behind.

 

“W, what are you doing?”

 

“There’s a thorn in your words today.”

 

This man must be really crazy. Is it necessary to this kind of acting when no one is watching?

 

“Let me go. It’s uncomfortable.”

 

The Grand Duke put his chin on my shoulder, ignoring my words. The scent of dark wood lingered at the tip of my nose.

 

Cold skin, cold hair.

 

His hot breath

 

“You’re helping me.”

 

“…….”

 

“Become proficient.”

 

Isn’t it all a lie?

 

I think he would have dated more than a hundred times.

 

I was barely able to breathe, as his face was so close to her face.

 

As I closed my eyes stupidly with my whole body hardened, the Grand Duke let me go from his arms with a low laugh.

 

“You sent Hardin to the empress.”

 

“Yes. You knew.”

 

“Why do you act first without telling me?”

 

“…Do I have to report these little things?”

 

“That would be better. You and I are strictly in a contractual relationship.”

 

The Grand Duke’s eyes were quite different from the man who played the role of her sweet lover a while ago.

 

He was persistent and tenacious like a beast who never missed his prey.

 

He said contractual relationship, but we are in a master-servant relationship.

 

“I want to show Hardin clearly.”

 

“What?”

 

“From the perspective of a hound.”

 

Hardin, who was sent to report a failed mission, will probably die at the hands of the empress.

 

No, he is going to die. As it is meant to be

 

“I thought you were trying to tame him. Am I mistaken?”

 

“I’m making sure. So that he will obey me even if it’s not for Izanne.”

 

Hardin will die once the empress tells him she forgives him out of the great benevolence of her heart.

 

As soon as he leaves the annex tonight, a knife will aim at Hardin’s heart.

 

“There’s no way the empress would let him live.”

 

“When you open the door, turn right.”

 

A knight is after Hardin’s heart.

 

“Then flee using your skills. That’s what I said to him.”

 

“I want to ask you something, why didn’t the Duke know your ability?”

 

“…….”

 

Because, of course, I’m not the real Flotty Bevenia.

 

I couldn’t answer honestly.

 

I’ve tried to prove my use in order to live, but I can’t just look like a madman.

 

Even if Flotty, not me, had this ability, the Duke would not have known since he had no interest in his daughter.

 

“I told you. I was a daughter who was treated like a ghost.”

 

On second thought, Flotty resembles me a lot.

 

Still, I was loved by my mother, contrary to her.

 

Perhaps he noticed my sinking mood, so he said he’s going to leave and go to his office, and told me to rest.

 

“Do I have an office, too?”

 

“Why?”

 

“I’m going to read books and make some plans for the enemy. I can’t do it in the bedroom.”

 

“We have a study, so use it.”

 

After the Grand Duke left, I even checked his footsteps leaving and moving away.

 

“Old lady, old lady! Did you see it just now? Hurry up and come out.”

 

I called out the old lady urgently.

 

It was crazy. From the moment I entered this mansion, I don’t know how much I tried not to make it obvious.

 

[Oh, my] 

 

[Why are you waking me up in the middle of my sleep?]

 

“What do you mean a ghost sleeps?”

 

[Oh my? Why are you being so mean again? You’re getting more and more strange! ]

 

“Did you see? Of course you did. Because you’re also a ghost.”

 

[… I saw.]

 

“Ah, even you saw that this mansion was full of ghosts!”
