The Female Lead Raised The Villain

Twisted Truth (8)

“Ah!”

To end this ridiculous thing, she pretended to be sprained. The music stopped and everyone looked worried at her.

She raised her hand and reassured others as if it were okay, so she clapped and told others to enjoy it and fell off the stage.

She quickly headed toward the terrace looking at Arthur following her.

“It’s time for you to notice this kind of acting, right?””

“Why aren’t you looking for Carl?”

Arthur looked back and tilted his head. There must have been doubts as he did not see a Carl that was always attached.

She took off her gloves and took a breath while looking at the terrace. The wind on the terrace always feels good. When she stared outside in a daze, she felt like her dizzy mind was being sorted out.

“Is it important that he’s by my side?”

Why is he curious about that? Arthur wasn’t there for her. If Carl asks her what she is, what can Mary say?

It cannot be defined in a word.

“…… I’m saying this because I don’t know when Nox will show up.”

He was suspicious of not answering right away, but she thought it was just her feeling of being sensitive.

At Arthur’s words, her head turned outward. She leaned back on the terrace and looked at Arthur.

The wind shook her head and disturbed her gaze.

“Why?”

“He’s coveting you.”

It was a fact she knew from the beginning. The difference between then and now is that he is definitely suggesting that she be intrigued.

For example, confusing her by saying unknown things, such as contracts, is of course not an exception.

“Why did Knox tell me about the contract with you?”

“…….”

“What did he lose after mentioning the contract?”

She was curious. He didn’t open his mouth to her like that, but just because he wanted her?

“He can’t take my soul anymore.”

“That’s great.”

It was good to hear. Her expression brightened a little when she heard that the screams of the Viblant people did not have to fill the castle. However, Arthur’s expression remained firm.

It must have been good for him, so why would he be dissatisfied?

“You’re not talking about their souls, are you?”

Arthur’s light nodding head caught her eye for a moment. Suddenly, her head turned back at Arthur’s gaze behind her.

“Nox.”

Nox’s eyes, reaching for her, stood out. As soon as she instinctively tried to separate herself from the terrace, Nox’s hand was around her waist.

Arthur quickly moved toward her, but it was useless.

Nox, because he was a devil, and he stole her from Arthur and floated up in the sky.

“What are you doing right now?”

In his arms, she shed her eyes at Nox. She couldn’t get away from him because she was floating in the air.

“Don’t worry. I’m just taking you for a while.”

Would they know that she’s going out for someone who doesn’t want her to worry? This place was the Imperial Palace. Everyone knows that she came to the banquet hall, and if she suddenly disappears…….

She was blinded by what was to come.

“It doesn’t matter if other people know who you are?”

“You know what you saw last time, right?”

Maze.

Even then, he deceived many people’s eyes and created a boundary with her alone. Why is he suddenly acting like this?

“What’s wrong with you?”

“I told you. Keep an eye on what’s precious. I thought you still didn’t know, so I wanted to show you.”

Arthur’s eyes shook anxiously at Nox’s words. His hand, holding the terrace, looked tense. He quickly got out of the terrace and ran somewhere.

Nox smiled deeply as he looked toward Arthur, and disappeared while hugging her.

“Oh, my. I guess you got it now.”

It was obviously arsenic. What did Arthur notice?

***

There was nothing in the forest that she came to with Nox. When she looked down from the sky, she saw a flashing light. She opened her eyes gently to a shape that seemed to be shaped.

“What are you going to show me?”

“Hmm, I really didn’t know you’d do it.”

Nox muttered little by little. His words made her heart tremble.

“What?”

She doesn’t know what he’s saying, but she didn’t want to see it. No, she thought she shouldn’t see it.

“Take me to the Imperial Palace now.”

“No. I took so many risks because of this.”

He shook his head. The forest was emitting a bleak atmosphere, and it seemed to be telling her not to come and to run away.

The sound of the leaves flying against the wind sounded like a scream.

“I don’t want to see it.”

She turned her head and shouted at him. However, Nox smiled around his mouth to see if her reaction was fun.

Nox began to go down close only after seeing the light flashing several times.

She buried her head in Knox’s arms at a faster speed than expected. It was so fast that she couldn’t breathe.

“Haah.”

In his arms that stopped, she hurriedly caught her breath. The heart continued to fluctuate, and how fast it beat, she could hear a thumping sound in her ears.

As soon as she put herself down on the floor, she fell down exhausted. She tried to calm down, breathing out on the floor.

‘…… It’s wet.’

The palms touching the floor were damp. The fishy scent poked her nose, and her body’s hair stood upright at this familiar scent.
