Chapter 47: CH 44

Chapter 5. The Upcoming Shadow.

Looking at the house in dismay, I hurriedly ran toward the yard.

“Ah…”

There is no such mess.

The flames that rise from all sides makes me dizzy.

“What’s this…”

There’s nothing better than my collapsed house.

“Where’s my Ria! You brats!”

“How many times do I have to tell you that she went to the mountain because of an errand!”

“Then are you saying she’s still on the errand until now?”

And the fight didn’t stop even though I had come.

“For such a blackhearted person like you all, I won’t get fooled by what you say!”

“… I get why she’s called the rabid dog. She’s really a mad dog.”

May keep pushing the knights, she doesn’t care whether they hate it or not.

“Ria doesn’t have anything, so even if you dug it out, just the dust will come!”

“Take that back, Mage! Madam has our Lord!”

Ludo, the Dillian’s fanatic, couldn’t help but roar.

“Who is your Lord?”

“It’s Dillian Sinaize-nim.”

“What? That crazy guy?”

… That crazy guy is listening to everything right next to me.

“… May.”

While grabbing my throbbing hair, I called her.

“Why does Ria have that crazy guy? Ria already has a handsome husband that can make everyone’s mouth wide open.”

“May, can’t you hear me?”

I swung my arms high, but May’s gaze was fixed on Ludo.

“Husband? Madam’s husband is our Lord! And His Grace’s face is also impossible to lose anywhere!”

“Excuse me? Can’t you hear me?”

“What the! With her face our Ria also can’t lose!”

So you can’t hear me. I see. I’m just shouting in the air by myself.

I closed my eyes slowly.

“… God, I’m going to kill them then go to hell.”

Gritted my teeth with a burning face, I rushed at the two fighting people.

It was Dillian who stopped me.

Dillian’s firm arms wound around my waist.

“Let go! I’m going to kill them and go to hell.”

“Miss Ria, you can’t do that!”

“Why not?”

Are you saying I did something wrong? Dillian shook his head as I stared at him with axed eyes.

“Miss Ria must go to heaven. Even if you kill them all, you will still go to heaven, so don’t worry and deal with it.”

For a while, I was speechless when he suggesting murder proudly, then trembled at the hot warmth surrounding the back of my hand.

Dillian, who grabbed my hand before I knew it, whispered in a subtle voice.

“No. Miss Ria’s hands don’t have to get dirty, I will take care of it.”

Dillian’s crazy words brought back the mind that had left my head.

‘If it’s Dillian, he really is…’

I let out a long sigh and relaxed my shoulders. Then patted Dillian’s arm.

“That’s enough. I’m just saying it. Now that I have calmed down, please let go of this.”

But the arms wrapped around my waist didn’t think of loosening up.

The more I tried to force myself apart, the deeper I was restrained.

“Sir Dillian?”

“I’m scared. Just look at those terrible eyes.”

When I followed Dillian’s eyes, I saw people watching us with their mouths open.

The warlike fight has long stopped.

‘… What did you see until you could say that those are terrible eyes?’

Doesn’t care whether I’m embarrassed or not, Dillian put his chin on my shoulder.

Can’t move, I was caught by him.

‘Fool. He got me again.’

In the end, I had no choice but to watch their ever-changing faces without escaping from him.

It got white then became blue, turned pale then turned red.

It was very diverse.

“… Don’t just look, please help me.”

At that word, May and Ludo rushed to us.

“Ria!”

“Your Grace.”

Avoiding May’s arms that wide open, I pulled her ear.

“May. What the hell did you do to someone else’s house?”

“Ah, it hurts! Ria. My ear will fall off!”

May whined that it hurt when I twisted her lobe.

Ignoring the cry, I struck sharply at the saliva-swallowing knights.

“You all said you’d look after the house, but you let it ruin?”

“Tha, that person attacked first… We are sorry.”

The knights bowed their heads and apologized.

I knew this was gonna happen. Again, it was May that always rushed forward.

“Why did you attack out of the blue?”

“Because they keep lying that you went to the mountain! I thought you were kidnapped!”

Her anger had been relieved or not, May breathed heavily.

“You were attacked not too long ago! I tracked that weapon. But do you know where it is? It was the Blant family. The Duke Sinaize’s collateral family.”

May pointed her finger at Ludo.

“But these guys were Sinaize’s dogs. I thought they were here to catch you again, but you really went to the mountain…?”

May’s voice, which had been angry like a fire, became smaller and smaller, and at the end, she began to do something else while looking at the distant mountain.

So it all started from May’s misunderstanding.

It was understandable because of my circumstances, but, do you really need to destroy the house?

Slapping May’s back, I looked around at the ruined house with bewildered eyes.

“The contract is still left… And where else can I sleep…?”

Tears welled up when the real problem was in front of me.

Then, the panicked May hugged me in her arms and comforted me.

“Don’t cry. You have me! You can go to my house!”

May said in a confident voice for me not to worry.

Sniffed, I looked at May’s house.

“It’s all gone…”

Of course. May and my house were next door.

It was foreseen from the moment my house was burnt to ashes.

May collapsed when she finally realized that the fire spread to her house.

“My house…”

… May muttered with a stunned face.

I looked bitterly at the ruined house, but something was off.

‘Why is the shadow so big?’

I threw my eyes under the window.

The shadow under the blanket flapping in the wind looked especially thick and large.

“Miss Ria, is there something there?”

Turning to Dillian, I pointed under the blanket.

“In there…”

I didn’t finish what I said. The unfamiliar feeling that I felt earlier was gone.

“It’s nothing. I think I saw it wrong because of the wind.”

Well, nothing normal will come from a house in that state.

I quickly erased it from my memory.

***

Losing my home overnight, I was eventually forced to follow the knights to their inn.

“Ria, I’m sorry…”

“We are sorry Ria-nim.”

“Enough…”

I shook my head weakly at the alternating apology.

Exhausted. I didn’t have the energy to get angry anymore.

‘May and the knights will be responsible for the collapsed house, so that’s fine.’

And they promised to give me compensation for the damage.

I lost the house, but I got more in the end ‘so what’ that kind of word is popping in my head.

Other than that, what bothered me more was Dillian.

‘Is he really that happy?’

From the moment he saw the house collapse until now, Dillian’s face was still smiling.

He looks so bright, until Haris and the knights feel surprised.

‘Even if my house collapses, I don’t want to go to the Sinaize Dukedom.’

Am I crazy enough to go to that house? I’d rather be homeless.

‘Don’t fall for that face.’

Keeping my composure, don’t give a look at Dillian.

It’s been less than a minute since I said that….

“What is this?”

I was at a loss for words.

“What kind of room…”

I’m in a state of losing my mind because of my collapsed house, I purely receive the key when the innkeeper gives me a room.

But I didn’t expect such a catastrophe.

The spacious bed was obviously for two people.

Dillian led me, who was still unconscious.

“You must be tired, hurry, wash up…”

At that moment, May grabbed me, pushed Dillian out, and closed the door.

May, who locked the door firmly, grabbed me by the shoulders.

“Ria, that guy! Your husband is Dillian Sinaize? That monster Duke?”

“He’s not my husband.”

“That’s not important, is it true?”

Even if he loses his memory, it doesn’t change that he is the Duke of Sinaize.

As I nodded affirmatively, May slapped her pale face hard.

“I’m really stupid! I can’t believe I’m pushing you into death.”

“Right. Half is your fault.”

Then, strength came into May’s hand which slapped her face.

‘Her cheeks are going to burst then.’

I’ve been mean, I didn’t expect her to react so violently.

I stopped May from slapping her face.

“Enough, so stop it.”

“I would never have done that if I had known that handsome face was the Duke of Sinaize.”

May grabbed her throbbing cheek and desperately regretted it.

But it’s too late to regret.

“Wife.”

Dillian already believes that I am his wife.

Behold, the tenacity to open the locked door to enter.

“Crazy! Where’s this and you’re still forcing your way in?”

Before I knew it, May freaked out at the wide open door.

“It’s miss May who is in the wrong.”

“What?”

“Miss May’s room is over there. This is my room.”

“Why is this your room?”

Unlike her first encounter, which was full of goodwill and affection, May’s face was full of vigilance.

On the contrary, Diliian was more relaxed than he was then.

“It’s natural for a couple to share a room, so what’s the problem?”

He’s become more sly.

“You’re talking like you two are a married couple, huh? You and Ria are strangers!”

At that moment Dillian’s eyes sank coldly.

“I was wondering who was talking nonsense to miss Ria, so it was you. Why don’t you leave the third party’s place?”

“What? Third party? Hey, handsome Duke, Ria and I are like family!”

“Aren’t you two just friends? I don’t think that’s a good thing to say in front of a couple who are more connected than a friend.”

May snorted.

“You’re deluded. You’ll be embarrassed and want to die when you get your memories back. I feel bad for you.”

May, the fear-spreading snout, quipped Dillian.

But the opponent is the hell snout.

“I feel more sorry for you.”

“Why me?”

“I feel sorry for you who don’t know the beauty of love.”

“Crazy, shut up!”

May, who started to hear the word love, trembled.

“Ria, that bastxrd is really crazy.”

“Right, I’m crazy for miss Ria.”

“Arrgh! I don’t want to hear it!”

May collapsed in the bitter defeat she had tasted for the first time.

Dillian looked back at me with a victorious look.

Dillian, who’s been holding my hand the whole time, kissed the back of my hand like the knight who won the war.

That noble kiss made me blush.

“Miss Ria, we have eliminated a heinous enemy that interferes with our love.”

May, who suddenly became a villain, grabbed the back of her neck.

“Then, uninvited guest, please leave.”

“Who’s the uninvited guest?”

May disappeared when Dillian tinged his finger.

As I looked around in confusion, Dillian grabbed me by the cheek and calmed me down.

“Kanae sent her to the next room, so don’t worry.”

He whispered, with his fascinating eyes folded.

“I should get a prize for defeating the enemy, right?”

“Yes, what?”

Watching May and Dillian fight with an interesting face, I stuttered and couldn’t adapt to the sudden change in atmosphere.

I belatedly came to my senses and brought my body to the back, but I was blocked by the wall.

And had nowhere to back down. 

“Will you give me the prize?”

“So, what is the prize…?”

When I was caught up in the atmosphere, Dillian lightly pressed my lower lips with his thumb.

“Of course it’s the victory’s kiss.”

My eyes turned round and round on the gradually approaching beautiful face. 

And Dillian’s sharp nose hit my nose.
