Chapter 41: 40

“Why the hell! What can you do right?”

An angry voice rang out loudly. The man tossed the crystal ashtray as if his anger could not be released. The ashtray was shattered with a sharp plosive that rang through one’s ears.

Fortunately, the ashtray fell quite far from where the woman was standing, so the shards of crystals did not harm her.

“I’m sorry.”

“Will an apology suffice?! How many times have I told you! To win the heart of Archduke Orlov and take the place of Duchess! You said you would take care of it yourself, but what the hell is this?! Didn’t he say he had a child now!”

The man spat out furiously, and became unruly.

The man so resentful was none other than Count Major Wilson. He behaved quite differently from the friendly treatment of Mikael when they met at the Duke of Esirene’s.

“I’m sorry, Father.”

“Sorry, sorry! To hell with ‘sorry’! You only know how to say sorry when things go wrong! Indeed, you are shameless because you resemble your mother! Your mother was the same, saying ‘I’m sorry, but I conceived the Count’s child’. Who knows if it’s really even my seed with that body that was rolling around dirtily!”

At the words of Count Wilson, who dishonoured her mother, Marina Wilson bit her lip. Her dark brown eyes blazed with anger. But Count Wilson did not notice Marina’s feelings. No, it would be more appropriate to say that he didn’t even think to notice.

He hated his wife, Marina’s mother, Amanda Orwell.

Amanda Orwell was a young baroness from a coastal province far from the capital, where she first met Major Wilson after she participated in her imperial prom debutantée.

Although Major’s age was significantly older than Amanda’s, Amanda was attracted to his delicate and polite demeanour. The two of them spent the night together the day they first met.

Sadly for Amanda, that day was her first liaison with the man, but for him, Amanda was only one of his many women. By the time she realised this, a new life was already growing in her belly.

Although she hated being the wife of the womaniser Major more than dying, Amanda’s conservative parents did not tolerate Amanda, who was pregnant premarital. Abandoned by her family, Amanda had only one place to go. She knocked on the door of the Count Wilson’s.

At the same time, Major’s parents had trouble with their son, who had been living a carefree life. It was also a big problem for them that they needed an heir, but had not yet seen grandchildren.

Then, a noble maiden carrying Major’s child appeared, and it was no less a happy occasion. Major, who didn’t want to marry a countryside maiden, was threatened with inheritance and married Amanda in the end.

Up to this point, they had no doubt that their grandchild would be a son.

However, the child born was a girl. The Count Wilson and his wife fell into great disappointment, not only disliking Marina, but also rejecting Amanda, the mother.

Of course, it went without saying that Major didn’t like Amanda and Marina. Because of this, Amanda was only debilitating day by day.

Afterwards, Count Wilson and his wife died of chronic disease, and the newly instated Count Wilson, who took over the family, sent his ailing wife to a remote country cottage under the pretext of recuperation, like he had been waiting to do that for a long time.

The reason for not abandoning Marina was simple. It was because he was thinking of putting Marina, who had grown up beautifully, into the marriage market at a good price.

Among them, the most coveted target was the imperial family. However, since marriage to the imperial family has many practical limitations, he had no choice but to naturally lower his standards one step further and aim for the Archduke Orlov.

Although he lowered his standards, to Count Wilson, the Archduke Orlov was a very attractive marriage partner.

The most powerful and wealthy family in the Wydefia Empire. With a history and legitimacy that even the imperial family could not be ignored. If he could marry his daughter into such a family, it seemed that all the suffering he had suffered from getting an unwanted marriage could be compensated for.

Hence, he tried his best to win the favour of Archduke Orlov in any way, but in reality, his daughter was doing nothing.

In the midst of this, Archduke Orlov apparently even gave birth to a child. It would be a big deal if the woman who gave birth to Archduke Orlov’s child, insisted that she would marry the Archduke, as Amanda did to himself. Because the tower, which he had been painstakingly working on for a long time, would crumble.

“Don’t worry, Father. I have never heard of Archduke Orlov having a woman.”

“Right! That’s what I’m saying! But didn’t he say that he had a child! The Archduke clearly said that to me!”

“How are you sure that the child is the Archduke’s child? Couldn’t it be that he’s the guardian of a child? Does it matter even if it’s the Archduke’s child? All I have to do is get married and have a child and make that child the head of the household.”

“… Hmm.”

At Marina’s unwavering words, Count Wilson bit his lips. He then looked her up and down with narrow eyes. Marina held her head stiffly to stand her ground.

It seemed like that girl was indeed his bloodline. Sometimes, she was infuriating, but looking at her current appearance, she looked like him.

“Tsk, fine. Try it. Do you have any good ideas?”

It was not very desirable, but now he had no choice but to trust Marina. Count Wilson asked in a blunt voice.

Then, Marina gently nodded her head.

“…”

“…”

A heavy silence settled in the room.

Yul glanced at Andrei’s face, blinking his big eyes. It was a pretty serious expression for a joke, but he thought that if it were that person, he would be able to lie with a serious face.

“Haha, hahaha, haha. Does that mean that this little guy is the answer to eternal life?”

“That’s right.”

“Gasp.”

Of course, he thought the answer would be no. Among these insignificant, useless, poor bastards, the little doll is the way to live eternal life, is this even true?

“Mikael…?”

Yul did not give up on his hopes and called Mikael anxiously. Even if Andrei was a great person who could talk nonsense to make fun of himself, Mikael wouldn’t be the kind of person to play around in this kind of situation.

“… Damn it.”

""

What, why are you swearing? Why?! It looks more serious now!

Contrary to Yul’s desperate wish, the words that came out of Mikael’s mouth were curses. He was also very annoyed, and it seemed that he was even fed up.

“The human body is finite. People don’t die because the soul dies. It dies because the body, the vessel for the soul, no longer functions. What if the soul could move continuously changing the body? It is possible to have enough eternal life.”

“It could be, but what kind of madman would want to go into the little doll and live forever!”

Yul screamed.

He knew what Andrei meant. Thoroughly understood. However, the human body and the cotton doll were fundamentally different.

Even if it was said that the soul could move by changing the vessel to be in a new body, it is the same, but in the first place, the comparison group of the human body and the cotton doll could not be viewed side by side.

“Of course, more research is needed. But knowing the principle is great.”

At Andrei’s explanation, Yul wiped his face with an absurd expression with both his soft hands.

This body would be the key to eternal life. He never even imagined.

In fact, it didn’t matter that much to Yul whether he lived eternal life or half a life. It was important to return to his original body, and if not, he wanted to at least live in a human body.

“Fine, let’s say so. That this body is the answer to living eternal life. But does that matter? You said something about black magic earlier, but if you use black magic, you might get caught?”

Yul quickly organised his complicated mind. Whatever it was, it didn’t seem like Andrei or Mikael was going to say something so grave.

But the words that came out of Andrei’s mouth shattered Yul’s expectations.
