Chapter 59: 59

Episode 59

“What?”

No way, that Eugene Ace asked me to be his ball partner.

This must be something I’m crazy about or he’s crazy or we’re both crazy.

“So, can you be my partner?”

At that moment, for about three seconds, a conversation that I had previously had with Cassius passed through my head.

‘If Eugene says something weird, don’t worry and ignore it.’

‘Strange words?’

‘Yes.’

“Strange words, for example?’

‘By any chance, ask when he asked if you have time, or when he suggests having a meal together, or–‘

The moment I thought of Cassius’s voice ringing in my head, I unwittingly breathed in.

‘After the performance at the banquet, if he said why don’t you dance together to celebrate your success.’

Now Eugene’s story fits the example that Cassius had taken out.

‘No way……’

Only then did I understand.

Why Cassius said that the other day.

And why is Eugene making this suggestion to me?

‘But why me?’

Still, I didn’t know why I was the one who made the offer.

‘Let’s settle down.’

I thought Cassius and Erica were enough for the flag.

Is it because the main character of the original this story is not enough, and even the one who is impatient to eat up the main character has come to like me?

‘Yerine Spade, you magical woman…!’

An extra villain who is not loved by anyone. It’s not popular enough to win the hearts of the main character and self-proclaimed rivals.

As I swallowed so many complaints and inner screams that came up through my throat, I asked Eugene in a voice that looked as calm as possible.

“Uh… thanks, but why are you asking me that?”

“What do you mean?”

“There are much prettier and better-tempered people besides me, so I wonder why you’re asking me to be your partner.”

The point was, why do you now show your favour to me when you think of me as a rival a little while ago?

Unfortunately, Eugene replied calmly, tilting his head to see if he didn’t understand what I meant.

“It’s because I want to partner with you, not the others.”

The lines in question that gave a bomb-like shock, strangely, my heart began to beat.

Why are you going so straight today when you used to be so mean?’

I must be out of my mind to hear that jerk’s words make my heartbeat.

“…you like dancing?”

“No.”

Then why are you asking me for a partner, you bastard?

When I stared at him in a stupefied state of disbelief, Eugene answered me in a calm voice.

“But I thought it wouldn’t be bad to do it with you.”

His bright blue eyes reflected in the moonlight showed a different atmosphere from the still light that always appeared. The light that seemed to contain a transparent and clear lake made me feel like I was sucked in.

When I reached out my hand, I had the illusion that I could reach the mysterious light.

“… So, what’s your answer?”

It was not until I heard Eugene’s voice asking for my answer that my mind came to me.

“Uh… yes.”

Only then did I grasp the situation.

I was not a princess in a fairy tale who could enjoy love at ease.

‘Well, I’m in a novel, indeed.’

Anyway, I wasn’t possessed by a person who could be comfortable here.

I was originally a villain who died about six months later, and I was walking a different path from the original, but I still didn’t know what the future would be like.

Due to the nature of the novel, the more involved I was with other characters, especially the more involved I was with the main character, the more likely I was to be involved in a troublesome affair.

Not to mention the love triangle. If I want to live a comfortable life as an extra, I must avoid it.

The bottom line is, no more dating flags can be set.

I looked down and chewed my lips.

How can I send that self-respecting fellow back?

“Hey, Eugene.”

At the voice calling his name, Eugene raised his head carefully.

“……yes.”

I know I shouldn’t be weak, but I was speechless for a moment when I saw the face of the obedient answer.

Somehow my throat seemed to be burning up.

“In fact, I’m not a good dancer. I’ve never danced before, so I haven’t even given a definite answer to my partner who applied before.”

I glanced at Eugene’s shaded face and tried to infer his expression.

I was worried that my eyebrows would tremble or my lips would be distorted.

But he was listening to my story calmly, unexpectedly without much change.

“Is it so?”

The answer from his mouth was also plain and concise.

Like having relieved as many emotions as possible.

“So I’m afraid I can’t breathe at this banquet. We’re still lacking, and I don’t know if we have time left after the show.”

“Can’t you just tell me?”

The answer, which popped out like a spring, embarrassed me for a moment, and my mind went blank.

I know that this guy is not someone who likes someone lightly, but hearing that makes me even more certain.

That he likes me quite sincerely.

‘He’s not the kind of person who can easily take his time and tell others what to do.’

While rolling his head nervously, tearing his lips, Eugene walked one step forward from where I stood and spoke with one leg up the stairs.

“Why don’t you let me know? Just like we taught each other during performance practice this time.”

The blue eyes reflected in the moonlight were somehow emitting a different light. His eyes were always cold and sharp.

If I look at it, I will naturally shrink.

But why do his eyes look so clear and anxious today like a child who lost his mother?

“……I really appreciate your help in practice.”

Eugene’s right hand flinched at the remark. Eugene, who had raised his hand for a moment as if to hold me, soon shook his hand and put down his fist again.

“So I’d be so sorry to take away your time any longer.”

It was expressed as much as possible, but it was virtually no different from a refusal.

Even the smart Eugene must have noticed what I meant.

Perhaps that’s why he listened to me and quietly lowered one leg back down the stairs.

“…okay, spade.”

It meant that he would not talk about the matter any more.

Was it an illusion that the word “spade” that he uttered at the time seemed to hit my heart exceptionally?

Eugene, who uttered such a short and concise word, turned lightly.

The silver reflected in the moonlight fluttered gently.

Somehow, I stood there in a daze, unable to take my eyes off that figure, and only when it was time for Eugene to start walking away with a murmur of footsteps, did I come to my senses in a fit of surprise.

“Good-bye, now!”

I wouldn’t even look back, but somehow I waved my hand out of feeling sorry.

To my surprise, however, Eugene, who heard my voice, stopped walking and turned halfway around to look at me.

“Spade.”

“Huh?”

When I made eye contact with him in one position with my right hand in the air, I stood firm and refuted his words.

“Let me ask you one thing.”

Eugene said so, turning his body completely, and then a silver moonlight poured down his face.

“You said you didn’t give a definite answer that you wanted to dance with the partner who applied for before, right?”

Why is he asking this again?

While tilting my head, I answered his question faithfully.

“Yes. I didn’t give a definite answer.”

“So far, I haven’t lost to that unlucky prince either?”

I screamed in astonishment as I saw Eugene speaking out plenty of words with her half-closed eyes raised.

“Hey, you’re crazy–”

“I guess it’s right, seeing your reaction. You turned down his application in the end.”

Seeing Eugene nodding and talking to himself, I could feel the heat on my face.

“No! I don’t know what you’re talking about, but what you think in your mind is not true!”

Isn’t it something to brag about being rejected when you applied for a partner?

It’s part of privacy to protect, and I didn’t want to spread the fact that Cassius applied to me as a partner in this way.

I hated being the cause of the rumour.

So I blushed and denied it, but Eugene didn’t seem to believe me very much.

“No, it’s okay. Don’t be so surprised. I’m not going to tell anyone. I’m just checking.”

As he said so, he turned annoyingly. Looking at the back of his silver head, I asked in a voice of amazement.

“Why do you have to check that?”

At that time I saw clearly.

At that moment, Eugene Ace’s back was shaking, and there was a “heuk” laugh.

‘Is he laughing?’

That Eugene Ace? The guy that used to look like he was going to kill a man every day?

That’s not a laugh. That’s a big smile.

“You have a good hunch and a sharp side, but you’re weak at this sort of thing.”

Eugene’s lips, looking back at me again, were clearly up.

“You still don’t know why?”

The moment I had that smile in my eyes, and the moment the voice passed by my ears, I couldn’t say I didn’t know the answer.

Anyone who has seen him will have no choice but to know the answer.

“…….”

There was nothing else I could do but bite my lips.

I know the answer very well, but I couldn’t say it out loud.

“I’m really going now. Go in, Spade.”

When I poked my lips and looked down, I heard a voice that sounded light but was not light.

After hearing the voice, I couldn’t raise my head for a while.

I’m afraid I’ll raise my head and run into his blue eyes looking back at me.

When I raised my head long after, I could see the silver back of his head as he walked leisurely through the playground in black darkness.

Looking at the mean back of his head enough to make me want to punch him, I murmured quietly.

“That’s really…”

Eventually, the flag got stuck.

There is a greater chance of getting caught up in troublesome work in the future.

The original male lead, the female lead, and the self-proclaimed aristocrat who was my rival.

Now it was like being in the middle of the eye of a typhoon.

I’m sure I have to be angry, but I have to think about getting out of this somehow.

“Damn it.”

It was a night when I didn’t know why my heart was beating so fast.
