Chapter 100: 100

* * *

“Your Highness, the liquid on your handkerchief is called the Heart of Eros.”

“The Heart of Eros?”

Rixus sat loosely at his desk and folded his arms as he listened to Ires’ report.

It was something he had never heard of. He didn’t know exactly.

“It’s a kind of love potion, but it’s said to have a much worse effect than that. It makes one’s eyes turn upside down, yes, to the partner.”

Rixus’ eyebrows turned upside down.

“It’s said that if one mixes it with a drop of blood, the person who drinks it will fall madly in love with the owner of the blood, and the person’s body will boil up and eventually will lust for him or her.”

“…….”

Upon hearing the story, Rixus looked thoughtful for a moment, and asked calmly.

“Is that all?”

“……Aren’t you surprised?”

Rixus’ calm response stunned Ires even more.

“I was really surprised. Yuria, the lady did this……!”

“…….”

“She’s not supposed to be like this. It’s really scary.”

On the other hand, there was no expectation in Rixus’ eyes in the first place.

In a dry, emotionlessly low voice, he said,

“Human beings are always like that.”

“…….”

When the nanny, who supported him until the end when he was young, eventually changed her mind and brought a lamp to his bedroom and tried to burn him to death.

The expectations for human beings in Rixus’ heart had completely evaporated.

From then on, no matter how harsh or cruel his opponent turned to him…… It wasn’t that surprising.

Because humans were like that.

Yuria wasn’t even the object of his interest.

He didn’t even wonder what she was thinking behind that innocent face.

However, she was not forgiven.

She tried to give him a drug, and…

…Especially since she dared to ruin ‘this precious marriage’.

“…….”

Ires shuddered inwardly at the coldness of his superior, then asked cautiously.

“…What are you going to do?”

“She has to pay the price.”

Ires became more cautious.

“Then, shall we officially deal with it right away?”

“No. That’s not enough.”

“…Then?”

If it was made public now, the Duke of Mavis would desperately try to turn it into a ‘happening caused by an immature and vulnerable lady.’

Even though trying to use a drug on the crown prince of a country was a felony that could not be washed away, he would drive public opinion.

Rixus hoped to handle this more clearly.

“First…….”

‘I’ll need a rabbit to run for that.’

Rixus’ lips twisted insidiously.

“I’ll pretend I’m affected.”

“Yes?!”

* * *

‘Isn’t there only the wedding left?’

I sat alone in my bedroom, sipping refreshments, and contemplating.

Just yesterday, all formal wedding preparations were over. I also got a call from Rixus’ side saying that everything was ready.

Now, only the ‘wedding’ really remains.

But I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

I was concerned about when Deborah would use the ‘Breath of Johannes’ and ‘The Poison of Mandra Gora’, which she traded under a different name.

‘If you want to do a self-play, it will be most effective when there are many eyes to see.’

And it would be possible only when I recommend Yuria to eat something.

The wedding had a traditional procedure that was well suited for that.

“If you don’t see it, then maybe…”

I squeezed my eyes, tired.

“I can’t just skip the wedding. Nothing’s easy.”

It was obviously a joke.

“Ki-hing.”

Someone from the window answered, ‘Something’, with a very cute sound.

“?”

I looked up in surprise, and this midday, a baby wolf was stuck in the gap in the window, sticking out its head.

“Oh.”

The small, soft, gray baby wolf was a humble figure that didn’t yet have the mane hair of an adult.

With that face, he pushed out his little tongue, struggled, but remained stuck in the gap in the window.

When I saw the cute thing, endorphins rushed and a smile appeared on my lips.

“…Hey, how did you get here?”

Even in the middle of the day!

‘So cute!’

I quickly approached and pulled the baby wolf out of the window.

A red ribbon was tied around its neck. I recognized it at a glance.

It was the ribbon I tied to ‘Shadow’ the other day.

‘……Maybe this cute little baby wolf is Shadow?!’

I wondered if that was the case, so I looked at the baby wolf suspiciously.

But rather than Shadow, it looked more like a gray cotton ball, still covered with fluffy tufts of hair.

‘I made a terrible assumption about this little boy.’

I shook my head and asked.

“Did Shadow send you?”

“Keung!”

The baby wolf put a little pouch on my bed.

‘Welcome Gift’. It was written exactly on the pocket.

It was the item I asked from Shadow last time.

“…Seeing that earthworm writhing handwriting, it must have been written by Shadow.”

“….…”

I said so, but I picked up the precious pouch, opened it, and checked the contents.

Inside was a small bottle of scarlet gas.

‘I asked for help, but…….’

When I saw this dangerous object, my heart turned as cold as ice.

The realization that what I was trying to do was ‘crazy’ itself, came to me vividly now.

However, the opponent, Yuria, was going to risk her fragile life to create an incident.

This one would be difficult to deal with unless I was more determined than her.

I forcefully steadied my pounding heart and pushed the ‘Welcome Gift’ deep into the drawer.

And then I opened the note.

{What the hell are you going to use this dangerous thing for?

I hope you don’t eat it.

Even the queen will die.}

He was quite concerned that it was going to kill me.

I simply ignored the note, crumpling it.

“By the way, is this all?”

“Keu?”

“What else do you have?”

I looked around the baby wolf.

I even rummaged through its tail.

To the baby wolf, who was young and somewhat disconcerted, I continued rummaging through the soft fur and shouted,

“That mean bastard… He left out the last part of the deal with Deborah?!”

“…….”

“Go to your master and tell him right away. If you don’t bring the transaction details, I’ll break into the headquaters in Yggdrasil and freeze them all!”

Kyuuu—

It was then. The baby wolf’s red eyes were brightly lit and it attacked with cuteness.

Unwittingly drawn by the irresistible cuteness, I hugged and petted the baby wolf.

“How can your fur be so soft?”

“….…”

“How lovely.”

“It’s a little early to confess your love.”

“?!”

……What kind of bullshit…… What kind of wolf talks?!

Soon, the baby wolf jumped off my lap and sneaked up to the window, turning into a human.

It’s him again. Shadow.

“You, you bastard…!”

As I pointed my finger in shock, Shadow touched his chest and laughed humorously.

“The Queen’s arms were so warm.”

“!”

“I didn’t know you would hold me so tightly and not let go.”

“Fufu,” Shadow, who laughed like it was hilarious, threw a small roll of paper into my arms.

As I frowned, he said.

“I kept my promise, Queen.”

Then in an instant, he sniffed, turned into a wolf, and jumped off the window sill.

“!”

Surprised, I approached the window and looked down to see a baby wolf running slipping through the guards.

It was only then that I realized why he appeared in such a small form. It was midday, so he was trying not to be spotted.

“…Crazy. The more I deal with him, the crazier he becomes.”

I opened the scroll with teeth marks once the wolf was completely out of sight.

My heart was pounding.

I was curious and afraid of what the last transaction would be.

{Deborah’s last transaction with Calypso is:

The Heart of Eros.

The effect is written right below.

…If you do this wrong, you will lose your husband, kekek.

If you’re beaten, come to Yggdrasil,

I’ll comfort you directly.}

‘As expected, she was aiming for Rixus!’

My heart plummeted, and my eyes kept seeing black and blue (the ink).

‘……Dangerous.’

I immediately stormed out of my seat and headed for Rixus.

* * *

‘From today on, the effect of the Heart of Eros will begin to show, right?’

Yuria was now in front of Rixius’s ‘personal armament’.

There, the lady of the noble family was alone, without any servant accompanying her.

Of course, she didn’t ask Rixus’ permission beforehand.

Two days before the wedding.

When the lady, who was rumored to have a crush on him, came to his private practice room without an appointment…

…If it was the usual crown prince, he would be very cold.

‘But if… If the Heart of Eros worked…’

He would be different.

She would be greeted differently than usual.

So, this situation was intentionally created.

‘I’m so nervous that I’m going crazy.’

Yuria clasped her sweaty hands and gently opened the door to his private practice room.

Fortunately, no one was at the entrance.

“…Your Highness?”

The noise from the inside that seemed like he was training suddenly stopped.

Then soon… A fine silhouette slowly walked toward her, raising dust.

Cool eyes, dull expression, black hair and blue-purple eyes.

It was a hard-lipped Rixus.

“Lady Mavis.”

‘…Uh? It didn’t work?’

Yuria’s heart fluctuated and sank once with despair.

There was no love in his eyes, he just had a cold face as usual.

Meanwhile, the curves of his muscles were clearly visible through the sweat-soaked shirt. Drops of sweat soaked the nape of his neck and strong shoulders; they caught her eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat and she took a deep breath.

He seemed hot to her. Looking at her while opening the lid of her water bottle, Rixus asked,

“Why did you come to me?”

“…I want to see you.”

As he brought the water bottle to his lips, he laughed out loud, “Hahaha!”

It was like a laugh that was a little outrageous, but…

…On the positive side, the smile seemed to be adoring.

He took a large sip of water, swallowed it, and answered the confused Yuria.

“If we were alone in this private space, we would be misunderstood.”

“Is it better to call someone…?”

Yuria carefully asked, but she couldn’t hide her disappointment.

In order not to be misunderstood, a third party was needed.

“….…”

Rixus looked at Yuria strangely, with an expression that seemed like he did not know what was inside of her.

It was then.

Ires’s voice was heard from outside the door, looking for Rixus.

It was a situation where a third party was voluntarily brought so as to not be misunderstood.

Rixus stared at her motionlessly with his red eyes… Then he opened his mouth.

Upon hearing those words, Yuria’s heart almost burst open.

“I think it’ll be fine if it’s just the two of us for a little longer.”

“……!”

Rixus quickly grabbed Yuria’s small body and hid them in the gap in the narrow wall.

Yuria felt like the blood from her whole body had drained out once and then returned again.

Her mind was dizzy at the sudden occurrence, and she blinked, thinking.

‘It definitely worked. The Crown Prince wants me…!’

But there was barely any joy, for this situation was too dizzying for an innocent woman.

Badump, badump.

Her gaze rested on the collar bone above Rixus’ chest.

No matter how much she shifted her eyes, she could only see the clear neckline and the stiff jawline.

The smell of sweat mixed with the characteristic masculine body scent was not unpleasant, but felt very seductive.

“Your Highness the Crown Prince!”

Even though Ires’ footsteps could be heard nearby, Rixus was still hiding their bodies.

Then, their eyes met.

“…….”

“…….”

Rixus quietly raised his index finger and put it on her lips.

Shhh.

In an instant, Yuria’s heart was beating as if it was about to explode.
