Chapter 135
Editor : Aru
“High Priest.”
Inner Seacomert called the old man in a bewildered voice. The old man shook his head as if it was okay.
“Don’t worry. She’s going to lose it and become a living doll soon, isn’t she?”
“If it’s a living doll, it’s Ash’s speciality….”
“What?”
“No, nothing.”
It’s a familiar expression for Ash, so I don’t even realize that I said it out loud. I coughed and went on naturally.
“Is that the proof? To be honest, I can’t trust the marquis’s son just by hearing your testimony. Don’t tell me you don’t know that, do you?”
“Oh, you’re treating me like I’m lacking. Of course, I left everything in writing.”
“Where?”
“It’s in a place you don’t have to know.”
Inner Seacomert sighed at the old man’s answer. He seemed relieved.
He seems relieved but what to do, I’ve already heard everything. I put my arms in front of my chest and stood in a comfortable position.
The old man raised his eyebrows in my changed posture.
“I don’t have to know, but you do know the place anyway, right? Oh, and you usually collect and store important stuff there. So if some people rob that place, they’re going to have, not only the evidence but also a lot of wealth, right?”
There must be a lot of evidence there.
The old man laughed in vain at my words.
“You’re talking nonsense. That way, you won’t be able to confirm it.”
“That’s true. I wouldn’t see it myself. I can show it to others instead.”
The old man seemed to feel something in my attitude for a moment. He looked beyond me and shouted.
“You!”
“There was no tailing. Really…..…one carriage caught up, but there was only one girl inside, so I took care of it and came in.”
Inner Seacomert seemed embarrassed but spoke out quickly.
“And even if one of them escaped and went out to call for someone, wouldn’t we get out of here before that? I’ve got a movement magic circle engraved on the floor, and activating it is all we need to do. So there would be no problem.”
Only then did I find the colourful patterns on the floor on his words.
Oh, that’s it.
“For reference, trying to erase it is useless. It wasn’t drawn, it was literally engraved.”
I didn’t mean to do that anyway. I shrugged my shoulders.
“Hmm.”
The old man regained his composure and looked at me. However, suspicions still lingered in his eyes.
“Did you hear that? It’s not a situation you can get away with. Additionally, there is only one entrance to the room. And Inner is blocking it.”
“You don’t have to tell me that, I can see that though.”
I grinned.
“I can see him standing there guarding the door like a dog.”
“You………!”
“Calm down, Inner.”
The old man kept his eyes on me.
He asked in a voice that he could not really understand.
“What the hell is this? What do you believe in that you have such a confident attitude? Was it desperate? But it feels different to be like that.”
“Well, I wonder what it is.”
“Did you hide a magic scroll in your body? But it’s no use. You can’t use magic in this room. Except for the magic circle that is engraved on the floor with special materials.”
“Really? I see.”
I don’t know what the principle is, but it would have cost a lot of money. Wasting the people’s donations for this. Ck ck these damn guys.
“……I really don’t know. Or have you been so scared that you’ve lost your reason? So…….”
“I’ll tell you something.”
It’s a room where anyone can’t use magic, but it’s an exception to divine power.
I can tell it just by looking at them trying to use the enchanted cloth on me. And even if that’s not the case, does it make sense that the divine power is blocked in the temple?
I slowly opened my mouth.
“I had a good friend called Ari. She was a really good girl. I said good-bye a while ago, but when she left, what was the last thing she said?”
I remembered the last words Ari had left me.
I tried to remember every word she said.
“Eonni, the remaining beads are in the bottom drawer of my desk on the left side of my room.”
“…….!”
“Well, that’s!”
I took a bead out of my arms. The old man who recognized the bead shouted with a pale face.
“Inner! Stop him!”
Inner Seacomert rushed at me on the old man’s orders. Of course, I was faster.
Thank you, Ari.
I smashed the marble that turned back the time.
><><><><><><><
I blinked my eyes. Where am I?
Oh, the jewellery store.
When I turned around, Inner Seacomert’s face, smiling, caught my eyes that I wanted to punch him and beat him.
Inner Seacomert opened his mouth in a meaningful voice.
“But I think I saw the man in the Dukedom a while ago.”
Aha, I’m back to this moment.
I smiled when I finished my judgment. Inner Seacomert, with a triumphant face, stopped.
“……..what is that smile?”
“Sir Davery!”
I ignored and shouted. Immediately, the door of the VIP room opened like a broken door.
“Get him knocked out!”
“What…….!”
Sir Davery didn’t ask me why. Inner Seacomert, who was struck at his jaw, drooped on the sofa where he was sitting.
Sir Davery knocked Inner Seacomert out and saw me.
“What’s going on?”
“Confucius!”
Late in the day, escorts of Inner Seacomert rushed into the VIP room. They faltered when they saw the fainted Inner Seacomert.
How many are there? That’s a lot of numbers for escorts. Sadly, they don’t seem very loyal.
I said it firmly.
“Let’s go to the palace!”
***
After three days and nights of torture, the High Priest of the Temple of Destruction blew up the place where the evidence was.
It was no use to exclude a second version of the enchanted cloth because it was already found in the old temple where I was taken.
‘The whole time he was tortured, he cried out, Who betrayed him and who told them about the plans.’
Well, it’s himself, of course.
Although he won’t know until he dies, just be curious and leave. Goodbye.
I heard Inner Seacomert was caught while trying to escape.
And the news that the series of processes was so disastrous that it was embarrassing to speak of.
After all……
The tea tastes sweet.
I stared out the window with a relaxed look.
I was going to open the window a little bit to create a mood and let the curtains fly, but I stopped the idea because it was cold.
I’ll be in trouble if I catch a cold. Being healthy is the best.
By the way, who took this tea? The taste was delicious and the scent was very good today.
Bessie looks busy. Is it the butler? Maybe Alex, unexpectedly. Maybe he has been taught a lot of skills by Bessie recently.
I laughed while thinking of that.
I remembered Ari. She helped me even after she went back home. I’m really grateful for that. By now, she must have finished the tearful reunion with her family and friends, right?
“I gave Sir Muscle Keith a paid vacation………’
Although I broke the bead of time and so the accident eventually didn’t happen, he had to be beaten with poison daggers because of me, so it was right to compensate him.
Sir Muscle Keith seemed to be ignorant about the reason, but he seemed happy anyway.
‘I have to send something to her, too.’
Thank you to Irene, too. Considering that she stood up in front of the damn Inner Seacomert for me.
It was quite touching and impressive.
‘What should I give to her…….. Oh, let me send her an invitation first.’
Irene has invited me, but I didn’t do the opposite. That’s a good idea. First, I’ll ask her what she likes in the letter. Whether it’s sweets or tea.
It was a time when I was immersed in such a peaceful plan.
There was a commotion downstairs. Who’s here? …… Don’t tell me?
In a moment, the existence of a Lime Extract brushed against my mind. Later on, it seemed like Lime Extract and Inner Seacomert were probably in the same team.
Did he come here to get revenge?
I put down the teacup and jumped up. Where’s the iron candlestick?
All right, this will do. That’s better. This time, I’ll make sure to shake off his corn.
I was determined to leave the room in a hurry, but the door I didn’t touch opened on its own.
The next moment, a welcome voice popped out of my mouth.
“Ash!”
“Lidia.”
Without further consideration, I threw the blunt instrument in my hand and ran straight to Ash to hug him. Ash hugged me with his natural movements. There was a pleasant air.
“How have you been?”
Ash asked, with my face buried in his chest and holding me tightly, not wanting to fall.
I answered in a mumbling voice because of my posture.
“Yes.”
“Did nothing happen?”
“There was.”
Ash paused. The arms that held me relaxed. As I lifted my head feeling the stiffening body, I could see his sunken yellow eyes.
“What happened?”
I smiled mischievously at his eyes.
“I was in pain every day because I was holding back what I wanted to see. Such a thing.”
“…….”
The stiff eyes were softened gradually. Ash kissed me on my eyelid by surprise.
I flinched and burst into a faint smile.
“It tickles.”
“With such pain, I would have been much worse.”
“Really?”
“I can’t even imagine it.”
“Ah-ha. Wait, it really tickles….”
Ash kissed me as if tormenting all over my face, and the next moment he found my lips.
As soon as the heat penetrated, it naturally tangled with each other. As I hurriedly shared my breath, my body pushed back little by little. I was walking backwards and fell over something at some point.
There was a soft touch to the hips. Oh, bed.
Ash didn’t stop kissing me. Of course, I didn’t want to stop either. The dizzying sense and warmth that I felt after a long time was so good that I thought it would be okay for the world to stop like this.
