Maria is agitated and asks in a voice that is a mixture of anger and sadness as she screams.
To this, Raven replies with a sarcastic smile.
“Why? Because someone asked me to falsely accuse him.”
“No!!”
“I haven’t been able to fuck you once either because of him. It was just right. So I was trying to figure out how to make it look like he had the money, and you told me. You said you kept sending gum substantial sums of money.”
“Ugh ……”
Maria clammed up, feeling like she had been told it was her fault.
“I looked into it and found that it had been embezzled, which made me laugh. If the money had really been transferred, I would have had to go through the trouble of disposing of it somehow. But it saved me a lot of trouble and he was easily falsely accused.”
“No ……”
In any case, it all started when Maria testified to Raven that she had sent money to Cyclo.
If she had kept quiet about it — if she had defended Cyclo and taken the attitude that there was no such money.
Cyclo might not have been falsely accused.
Maria’s mood darkened even more at the thought of this.
At the same time, this is why her anger at Raven grows.
“……I will never, ever forgive you.”
“Huh?”
“I will make sure this is made public. No matter how I am treated …… I will surely bring you to justice and prove Cyclo’s false accusation.”
“Ha ha ha! What are you talking about, you idiot? It’s too late for that now!!”
Despite Maria’s declaration, Raven was not impatient, but only laughed.
“I’m the Hero, you know? Moreover, I’m the heir apparent of a ducal family. Who’s going to make a move just because one commoner is falsely accused of a crime?”
“The people are fools. It doesn’t matter what commotion you make by yourself. In the first place, if you want to complain about the false accusation, this Cyclo has to be “alive. How can a criminal slave not end up dead in a dungeon before a duke gets into a fight with him and is falsely accused?”
In other words – if push comes to shove, they will kill Cyclo. That way, there would be no victim to complain of false accusations.
No matter how much Maria screams that he was falsely accused, she is still an outsider. She is not in a position to make any public judgment.
Therefore, when Cyclo was tried as a criminal slave, he was already cornered.
“No …… no ……”
“Ha ha ha! Well, don’t be so sad! You felt pretty good, you know! I’m going to continue to use you as an outlet, so be happy about that, okay? Just like the last time I held you!
“Ugh. ……”
Maria recalls as she was told.
Raven had comforted her, fallen in love with him – and then she and Raven had spent the night together and had done the deed.
Not just once or twice.
Many times Maria was embraced by Raven and each time she was so happy to be in the arms of the man she “loved” that she uttered embarrassing words and became wild.
Maria felt nauseous as she thought back to her own dirty, disgusting behavior.
“Ugh, ggh …….”
Maria is about to vomit, but holds her mouth and somehow manages to endure.
She didn’t want to show any more ugliness in front of this man, Raven.
She also felt that she had no right to bemoan her circumstances.
He had betrayed Cyclo, driven him into a corner, and refused to believe in him.
He abandoned the love of his life who told him that he would come for her one day …… and opened her body to a fiend.
It also seemed to Maria that this was a punishment for herself.
She thought that since she had driven her loved one to hell …… it was only natural that she should receive that much retribution.
Therefore, Maria never did anything against Raven after this.
As if seeking her own punishment — if Raven asked her to do something, she would do it, no matter what it was.
