Chapter 3: 2

Kaverion sat quietly in the seat prepared to the right of the duke.

Ryleen stared at her brother for a moment, stunned.

'He was handsome.'

He was a handsome man with a soft impression, just like the description in the novel.

In addition, his height was much taller than average, and his broad shoulders were not normal.

The only thing that bothered me was the dirt around the neck, peeking through the shirt collar.

It's not huge, but it's oddly annoying.

He must have been to the training ground where the knights were.

While admiring it, Kaverion's eyes met. There was a momentary chill in his soft eyes.

'What… … what.'

However, Kaverion, who turned his gaze as if he had never done that, was quickly smiling with a friendly smile.

The cold expression was directed only at her.

'Ryleen... …. What the hell are you doing?'

Seeing the blatant hostility, Ryleen slightly lowered her head and let out a sigh.

A few conversations took place during the meal.

Mainly, it was about how to recover from the great damage suffered in the territory war with the Bedsian duchy.

Ryleen gradually moved away from the conversation.

I even felt like I was being ostracized by family members who never paid attention to me.

'No, is it right to be bullied?'

The older brother hated her, and the younger brother ignored her. In addition, the father knew all of this but overlooked it.

I feel dirty, but it doesn't matter. As a general rule, I didn't want to stick to this family.

The only thing that mattered now was this.

'To survive somehow.'

Taking advantage of the gaps between the family members to talk without herself, Rylenne pondered.

What can I do now?

There were two options available.

Number 1, run away

Number 2, stop the runaway of the male lead.

Right now, number 1, 'run away', is the easiest way, but after that was the problem.

Ryleen's body was so weak that she often collapsed, and the aristocratic lady, who hadn't even lifted a hand, ran away, and there was nothing to do.

Besides, Duke Ergen seems indifferent now, but he doesn't know what kind of attitude he will show if he runs away.

Maybe catch it and tie it up.

'Then number 2, to stop the runaway of the male lead... …?'

It's too vague.

The male lead has unprecedented power among first-class awakeners, but he is not able to control that power well.

In this worldview, there was a 'handler' that could deal with the awakened person, and the handler played a role in preventing the awakening from runaway and helping him to use his power smoothly.

And the only handler who could stop the runaway of the male lead was the female protagonist, Karina.

'In other words, I'm neither a handler nor a female lead, so I can't stop the male lead from running amok.'

A crack appeared between Ryleen's fine brows.

… … what the heck

Ryleen, who was thinking about it, suddenly had an idea.

'If the male lead escapes from here... …?'

I want him to get away from here before he runs out of control.

It's to put away the male lead, who is like a bomb that can explode at any moment!

Of course, Duke Ergen will run amok, but that's the next problem.

After all, surviving comes first.

“By the way, Aiden Bedsian is also a problem.”

Just then, Kaverion talked about the male lead.

Ryleen pricked up her ears.

“What's wrong with Aiden Bedsian, who is imprisoned in the dungeon? He's not even an Awoken.”

Duke Ergen said while wiping his mouth.

"He's not an Awakener, but he killed as many as 20 knights and soldiers in the Battle of the Territory."

S, twenty people.

Ryleen couldn't help but be surprised. He's not even an Awakener, so he's dealing with so many people by himself.

“So don't be discouraged. They are locked in a dungeon, but they need someone to keep an eye on them.”

“Wouldn’t it be fine if we put the articles on it?”

“There were about half of the casualties in this Battle. The rest are also tired and need to be given time to rest.”

Lailene, who had been listening quietly, blinked.

'What… …. Still, you have a surprisingly human side.'

At least, the most humane person here was Kaverion, the sub-male lead in the original work.

He hated his one and only sister, but the knights under him seemed to be taking good care of them.

“But aren’t you too busy to monitor yourself?”

“Of course, it is difficult for me.”

Just then, her younger brother, Helis, raised her hand.

“I will watch over you.”

All eyes turned to Helis.

"I'm busy with the house restoration project these days, but if I have to keep an eye on such a devil, I'll be willing to sacrifice myself."

Helis's expression rose to determination.

Seeing that, Ryleen shook her head.

If a guy like that oversaw Aiden's surveillance, the male lead's rampage might be accelerated.

Besides, he seemed proud of himself, as if he was doing something amazing even now, but all he had to do was visit the male lead several times a day who was locked in a dungeon.

Ryleen's thoughts flashed in the wall.

'… … Wait a minute.'

If it's something like that, I can do it too.

Above all, if I could be alone with the male lead, it would be easy to let him escape.

Ryleen tried to hide her excitement that she had found a way, and calmly opened her mouth.

"Father."

He didn't say anything the entire time, no he didn't even make him say anything, but anyway.

When he opened his mouth, the eyes of his family gathered.

“What is it, Ryleen?”

“I will keep an eye on Aiden Bedsian.”

The family's eyes widened at once.

It was an expression of disbelief in Ryleen's words.

Ryleen understood that reaction.

In my memory, Ryleen seldom took part in family matters.

Helis was the first to come to her senses.

“What kind of wind blew, why is your sister suddenly going to work around the house?”

“Since everyone is busy, I thought I should do what I can.”

Helis laughed as if she was dumbfounded.

"I'm glad you're trying to be of some help now, but I don't think this is your place."

Helis really had no quirks.

How can you say that openly in front of your family?

"That's right, Ryleen. I understand what you mean, but monitoring Aiden Bedsian is important.”

Even his father turned a blind eye to his younger brother's attitude, so this is how he treats Ryleen.

It seemed that not only memories but also emotions assimilated with the original Ryleen, emotions surged now.

However, emotional appeals do not work in the face of a cold-blooded person like Duke Ergen.

"Father. There are many things to be done right away because of the intense Battle of Yeongji, and I know that everyone is extremely busy. So, I'm going out. Even in times like these, we should be of help.”

Ryleen let go of Helis for a moment.

"And… … Do you think Helis will be able to keep an eye on Aiden Bedsian?”

“I am! What does that mean, sister?”

Helis nervously put the tableware down. The knife clattered against the plate.

Conversely, Ryleen smiled softly.

“Literally, as you said, aren’t you too busy with the private house restoration project? It wouldn’t be one or two things to do with that.”

Helis realized that being speechless meant this.

I never thought I would return what I said in this way.

I was thinking about what to say, but Duke Ergen nodded.

“There is a point in what Ryleen said. Helis must have a daunting task now.”

Duke Ergen's gaze turned to Kaverion.

“What do you think, Kaverion?”

Kaverion stayed still as if pondering for a while, and then opened his mouth.

“I think so too. It's an important job, but it's not a difficult job, so even Lailen can do it.”

'Even for Ryleen?'

The tone was subtle, but in any case, I had to be content with helping me in the current situation.

The duke nodded once and looked at Ryleen.

“ Ryleen. Then have you keep an eye on Aiden Bedsian. However, mistakes should never be made.”

Duke Ergen, as if Kaverion's power had played a big role, eventually accepted Ryleen's proposal.

"Of course."

Ryleen let out a cry of joy inside and slightly bowed her head.

“This is nonsense, Father! To entrust your sister with an important person like Aiden Bedsian.”

Helis put on a very sad expression as if she couldn't accept it.

'This bastard.'

You should do your best to black.

Ryleen, who had the chance to win, thought it was time to warn Helis.

“Father, I would like to take this opportunity to tell you what I have been enduring.”

“What is it?”

Ryleen's expression was infinitely serious.

“This is Helis’ attitude.”

“What is my attitude… …!”

Helis widened her eyes when her name suddenly popped up, but Rylaine didn't care.

“As an older sister, I have tried to understand whenever Helis spoke perversely and rudely, as she does now. But now I feel that it is not for Helis.”

Despite the regretful voice, Duke Ergen's expression was indifferent.

As if it's no big deal.

'Also… … I'm not one to be swayed by these emotional appeals.'

However, Ryleen knew how to move Duke Ergen.

Ryleen deliberately put on a worried expression and opened her mouth.

“In addition, what I am concerned about is the family hierarchy. I don't know what will happen if Helis looks down on me.”

Ryleen slowly raised her eyes and stared at Duke Ergen.

 

“Isn’t that so, Father?”
