Chapter 31: 31

Episode 31

Translator : Missme Editor : Aru

Erica didn’t understand why The 2nd Prince suddenly came to her, and Erica trembled with uneasiness when there was rumoured that The 2nd Prince had handled one of the people who had touched Yerine.

Besides, Erica barely knew the face of The 2nd Prince. She’d never had a proper conversation, except a few days ago when he asked for a picture of Yerine.

Erica knew something bad was going to happen when he called her with a strong aura that would kill a person.

“Yes?”

She barely replied with a trembling and crawling voice…

Then Cassius fixed his bright yellow eyes on her and said,

“I’ve got something to tell you. Can you come out for a minute?”

That’s how she was alone in the backyard of the school with a man named The 2nd Prince of the Empire.

‘Maybe I’m going to end up like that person…….’

Did she get caught secretly taking the picture? Or was it that she caused so much trouble to Yerine?

Erica was even more anxious to see Cassius, whose eyes were still open and his mouth closed.

She’d rather prefer if he said something quickly, but she was more scared because he wasn’t saying anything.

‘What should I do….’

While Erica was restless, Cassius suddenly opened his mouth by fixing his bright yellow eyes to Erica.

“As I said earlier, I called you here because I want to have a long talk with you today.”

The eyes of Cassius, who said so, shined as sharp as the eyes of a beast, and Erica shuddered even more.

“Well, the things you want to talk about is …….”

Erica opened her mouth for the first time after arriving in the backyard.

At her words, Cassius came one step closer to Erica, and Erica shrank under the overwhelming physique of Cassius, which seemed to be twice as much as her own.

When the shadow of Cassius, which came close, covered the face of Erika, who was enveloped in anxiety, Cassius took something out of his bosom.

‘No way, is it weapons……?’

Erica thought, swallowed hard.

The brown sack, which Cassius took out of his arms, looked spare and suspicious enough to contain a weapon.

“Hiikk~”

When Erika was in shock, Casius unwrapped the strap of the sack without a care, and calmly took out the stuff from the sack and put it on his hand.

“You don’t seem to like it very much last time, so I prepared twice this time.”

What Cassius took out was none other than gold. The very gold that he took out in front of Erica last time.

Erica didn’t say anything at the flashy light of the gold bars that dazzled her eyes.

“And in case you don’t like the gold–”

Cassius then took all kinds of jewellery out of his sack and put it back on his hand.

“I have other options ready.”

Erica, who had been staring at Cassius’ hand without moving until then, looked up and faced Cassius.

“I’ll ask again. At this price, can you hand over the picture of Yerine?”

Cassius’s golden eyes, looking down at Erica, were full of confidence, and his face was mysteriously redolent.

Erica, looking alternately on his face and at the valuables on his hands, lowered her head and muttered in a quiet voice.

“……can…..”

At the words, Cassius pricked up his ears and asked Erica back in an excited voice, as if he thought there was hope.

“You can? If you don’t like the terms, I’ll give you as much–”

Such a low, shrill voice rang out in the backyard, standing in the way of Cassius’s words.

“I said I can not.”

Unlike before, Cassius thought he misheard Erica, who raised her head and stared at him as if she were going to kill him.

“Don’t make a random decision. Who told you that I’d sell it?”

But no matter how much he washed his eyes and looked at her, the girl, staring at him with her whole body and grinding her teeth, was clearly right Erica Blothea, whom he knew.

“Who are you?”

Erica Blothea was always the type of person who stayed quiet as if she were dead, and although they had not met much, she was passive and couldn’t say mean things to others.

“Blothea, were you originally this kind of personality?”

Erica didn’t talk much even in front of her best friend, Yerine, and she only showed changes in her facial expression to the extent that she was always expressionless and sometimes smiled.

“What does it matter to you what personality I am?”

So Cassius couldn’t believe that now she was just giving off a look of murderous flesh.

“Anyways, the picture of Yerine is mine.”

Erica spoke with a low voice.

“But why do you keep trying to take possession of things that already have owners?”

In addition, her passive personality seems to have been given away, she had become aggressive like a next-door dog.

Cassius could tell right away at that moment.

‘This woman…….. She’s similar to me.’

Cassius immediately rolled his head and found a solution to break this situation.

‘If she’s similar to me, it’s obvious what she wants.’

In the meantime, Erica continued to frown and looked at Cassius.

“I’m telling you again, I’m never going to sell these pictures.”

‘I guess Yerine is going to faint when she sees that.’

Evading Erica, who continued to growl, Cassius stepped back and raised his right hand.

“Okay, then I’ll offer another deal.”

“I don’t want to negotiate.”

“You still don’t know what I’ll offer yet….”

said Cassius, kicking his tongue. Erica glared at him with a burning look at his words.

“What did you just say?”

“Listen, Blothea. This is certainly a favourable condition for you, too. If you ignore it, you will shed blood tears later on.”

Only then did Erica listen to Cassius.

“……what is it?”

“It seems like we want the same thing.”

Cassius raised his head and said,

“Isn’t that what you and I want to see, as much as possible, the most beautiful and wonderful and adorable figure in the world?”

She didn’t want to agree with Cassius, but it was an undeniable fact.

Erica shot Cassius with a sharp glance.

“So?”

“That’s why we’re in the same boat, Blothea.”

said Cassius, reaching out his hands.

“There is a limit to one person’s ability to capture every aspect of Yerine. But if it’s the two of us, we might be able to record more of Yerine’s appearance. On the premise of Yerine’s consent, of course.”

Erica snorted back at Cassius’ lengthy speech.

“Ha! No, that’s enough for me alone. I don’t need any help.”

Erica, who raised the corners of her mouth and smiled confidently, said.

“And I know your highness, The 2nd Prince, may need my help since Yerine still likes me, so she rarely refuses when I ask her to take a picture.”

Cassius clenched his fist.

He hates to admit it, but Cassius knew it well, so now he’s asking Erica for cooperation. Now he was quite unhappy that he had been stabbed to the point.

“But you can’t. Yerine doesn’t like you as much as she likes me. That’s why you’re offering me this?”

‘This woman!’

But Cassius immediately shook his head and said to himself,

‘I need to wake up. I have to get Yerine’s pictures even if I give up my pride.’

A clear voice, he shouted at Erica, who was waving her pink hair.

“Yes, I know you can. Even so, the image of the Yerine you can capture is very limited.”

“What?”

Erica immediately frowned.

“Think about it. You don’t know what happens next, but right now you’re in a different class with Yerine. your practical class is different from Yerine’s. Since the schedule is different, it’s almost impossible to capture the appearance of Yerine, who takes classes or does magic.”

“…Ugh.”

Erica, who heard the story, groaned sickly.

Cassius immediately concluded that there was hope.

“For, for that matter, I could ask someone else to do that with Yerine’s permission–”

“I’m the best fit for that other person, Blothea. I’m in the same class and I’m taking the practical class with Yerine.”

Cassius said seriously, scattering his crow-like black hair.

“More than that, do you think the third party with a shallow insight into Yerine’s charm can capture all of her beauty in the picture?”

Erica briefly loosened her forehead and opened her eyes wide, apparently embarrassed by the remark.

“Well, that’s……”

“I recognized your picture the moment I saw it. You’re similar to me. That’s why I’m proposing.”

Cassius approached Erica as he wrapped up his speech.

“But there’s still a problem to be addressed.”

“What is it?”

“You didn’t disclose your skills in the first place.”

That’s how Erica put out her right hand.

“Pass me the picture you took first. Then let’s think of the deal.”

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.}

“Don’t think of the modesty of trying to steal other photos before the deal, Blothea. I’m not going to share it and pass it on.”

said Cassius, glistening with his eyes.

“However, if you accept my transaction, I intend to exchange the photos.”

Upon hearing Cassius’s words, Erica thought for a moment with a suspicious eye and then delivered her opinion to Cassius.

“Show me the picture. And tell me about the conditions.”

“Good.”

While searching through his clothes for Erica’s words, Cassius thought to himself.

‘I never dreamed I’d get this thing out.’

So he took out a picture of Yerine, whom he cherished in his pocket.

“For your information, I knew Yerine longer than you. So I have a picture of her before entering the Academy. This is one of them.”

Casius said, carefully lifting the back of the photograph and showing it to Erica.

The photo was barely taken by Cassius, while crying, blowing and hanging on to Yerine just before she went to the capital.

He took this picture because he thought he’d miss it if I went to the capital city, but he kept it with him even after he entered the Academy.

“At that time, I am stubborn and make her wear a headband with a bunny-shaped decoration unlike usual.”

Then Erica rushed to Cassius at an alarmingly rapid pace to take the picture from his hand.

But Cassius was not such an easy man. After raising the picture high beyond Erica’s reach, he continued his words in a nonchalant voice.

“Hold on the terms first. From now on, you and I will share a picture of Yerine. You take the pictures you can take, and I’ll take the pictures during the class. You can tell Yerine that you asked me to take a picture of you because you wanted to see the picture during the class. Instead, we share photos.”

Erica, who was tiptoeing and waving her arms, asked.

“That sharing…… What is the exact definition of sharing…”

“It’s like a rental. We give each other the pictures we took and then return them a day later.”

Only then did Erica stop struggling and spoke with a breathless breath.

“Okay, I’ll decide after looking at the picture.”

In Erica’s reply, Cassius grabbed the corner of the photograph tightly and pushed it toward Erica.

“Now, look.”

“…….”

Erica, who had been staring at the picture for a long time, agonized over her finger near her mouth, and after a while, she spoke out in a solemn voice.

“I’ll accept it. Give me the picture.”

“You take out your picture first, I’ll hold it and let it go at the same time.”

Erica sighed and took out the picture as he asked, which was put in her pocket.

“You know that if you do something weird here, the deal will be nullified, don’t you?”

“I know.”

“Then, on the count of three, you’ll let go, Blothea.”

The two people, holding onto the picture with a grim face more than anyone else, counted three and at the same time let go, turned around and checked the picture.

“Oh, no…The bunny hair is so cute!”

“Ah, Yerine…she looks so refreshing.”

The two, who had fallen into the picture and could not notice their backs, were startled to hear voices echoing low.

“What are you two doing………?”

When the two people looked back in surprise, the main character in the picture stood waving her purple hair.

“What do you mean by the deal?”
