The Fiancee Who Betrayed Me Is Obsessed With Me

61 – Prelude to Revenge (2)

Actually, I had no ill feelings towards the first prince, but in order for Yuna to take the throne, he had to fall.

No, maybe it was wrong to say that I had no ill feelings towards him. In the first place, I already had a great hatred for Helia herself, who took everything from me.

Maybe that’s why I didn’t feel a single bit of guilt while doing this.

It wasn’t fun, but I was able to make everything dry.

“… “I’m sure you got the job done.”

“It is certainly. “I confirmed that no one found out.”

“okay… then.”

Sigh-

Without hesitation, I cut off the head of the informant who helped me plan this.

His neck fell to the floor with his eyes wide open and full of questions, his expression still the same as when he was alive.

There was no one left who knew about this. Therefore, all the helpers who had done their job were killed.

I couldn’t believe it because they were all hired with money in the first place.

In addition, there were several other people who had bought it, and they too would all have to meet this end when they finished using it.

To leave no doubt whatsoever about me.

There was still no guilt. Because these people were also all people of Helia.

“… “Leah.”

After confirming what had happened, I went to Lia’s room.

She couldn’t even go into her room for a while due to the trauma, but she seems to be doing quite well now.

Through an informant, he learned of Director Mernis’ movements, and placed a copy of the video in the First Prince’s office at the right time.

Given Director Mernis’s personality, it seemed unlikely that he would immediately come to Lia with it.

And it would be impossible to immediately make it public.

Anyway, it was a video that showed his daughter like that.

But he will definitely be angry. He will be angry and go to Prince 1 first.

It was necessary to take advantage of that brief gap once more.

There was no need to worry about the route getting tangled. Because they were aware of all the movements of key figures, including the 1st Prince and Captain Mernis.

Just like Prince 1 did this time, all he had to do was falsify his alibi.

“Ah, Beryl. “What’s going on?”

Lia smiled at me with a slightly thinner face than before.

There was definitely some damage from that incident, but it felt like I had overcome it.

As expected, it was as expected, but her spirit was really strong. Because she was a knight before she was a woman.

“just. “I came here to see something because my off-duty time overlapped.”

“is it. Nothing special. “I just returned from personal training.”

After that incident, Lia devoted herself to becoming stronger.

If I didn’t do that, I might have had a hard time with it because I was worried that my spirit would break down, or it might have been because of the memory of being helplessly suppressed by me at that time.

Of course, I haven’t fully revealed my true skills since joining the Knights.

It was clear that if a newcomer from a commoner showed such skills, it would attract attention.

Of course, even with such hidden skills, he maintained a high rank among knights.

Perhaps, no matter how much Lia trains, she will not be able to easily surpass me, who trained with a dark elf.

At that time, when he subdued Lia, he used his hidden skills, even if only briefly, so she couldn’t even react.

“okay. Anyway, Haas… … ”

I brought up everyday stories as if comforting her like I always did.

Her attitude in overcoming the pain was admirable, but behind the scenes, I was sharpening another knife.

I didn’t feel any guilt about destroying other things, but when I thought of her, my heart throbbed just a little.

Because she was the strongest, brightest person I knew.

That solid light that breaks but does not bend seems to illuminate me who is stained with darkness.

-ha ha ha… so… …

Her smile has become more difficult to see recently.

Now she seemed wary of most other knights, but she was opening her heart to me.

On the one hand, I felt sorry for her being deceived by me, but I had no intention of stopping.

I smiled and continued the conversation with her as if nothing had happened.

***

After finishing the day, Lia carefully laid down on the bed.

The bed was recently being used on the other side.

From noble mtl dot com

Even though I washed the sheets thoroughly, I just couldn’t lie down on that bed again.

“ha… “

Still, it’s been holding up pretty well lately.

The knights were still wary, and there was a sense that they were acting a little calmly, but they were not engulfed in fear all day like before.

It meant that I was overcoming it. And Beryl had a big part in that.

The relationship with him, which had become distant, quickly returned, and Beryl treated him more kindly than before.

He always took good care of me without even asking me why I was having a hard time.

In fact, it warmed my heart to know that Beryl didn’t hate me and still thought about me.

If it weren’t for him, I definitely wouldn’t have been able to overcome it.

Lia turned off the light and went to sleep.

I was still nervous about spending the night alone.

But as each day passed without incident, I began to feel a little relieved.

We still haven’t found out who he is, and there’s no guarantee that he won’t come back.

There was no one to protect him, and he was not confident that he could defeat him alone.

The room was searched every day. I wonder if there is some kind of magic device installed that prevents sound from coming out like before.

And there was nothing like that today either. Except for Beryl who came briefly when I was searching the room, no one came to the room.

In other words, it meant that I could sleep in peace today. However, it was also true that my mind could not calm down.

I haven’t been able to sleep properly, so I’ve been quite sensitive recently.

Still, I had to endure it. It wasn’t strange for the knight to always fall asleep while on guard.

Today again, Lia tossed and turned for a while and finally fell into a light sleep.

.

.

-Quick…

“… !”

The sound of a door opening. Lia quickly grabbed the sword and stood up.

Her body, which was sleeping in an extremely sensitive state, moved without going through the brain.

“Huh… ! Ugh… !”

However, this time the gunman was several times faster than before.

The moment I thought Lia had grabbed the sword and stood up, she was already caught in the hands of the gunman and her mouth was blocked.

“hehehehe… ”

“Whoop- whoop-!”

The gunman covered her mouth with one hand and easily subdued Lia with both legs, then used the other hand to activate a magic tool that blocked sound.

Leah twisted her body in despair. But his skills were solid.

“hehehe… That’s it.”

Just like then, the voice of the strange man whose voice had been altered began to laugh unpleasantly when the magic tool was finished operating.

And now, as if there was nothing to worry about, he released the hand that was covering Lia’s mouth.

No one from outside could come to Lia’s room, which was located in a corner. It meant that the watchdog did not notice.

“this… What is this… Are you doing this… !”

“What are you doing? long time no see?”

Although she desperately resisted, Leah could not raise her voice as strongly as before.

This is because the fear that was already imprinted on him remained.

At the thought of the same thing happening again, Lia’s legs began to shake and her mind became filled with fear.

“stop… Please… stop… ”

“hehehehe… ”

Lia knew the future unfolding before her.

The voice was much weaker than before. Even though I trained hard during this time, there was a gap in my skills that I couldn’t overcome.

He had no idea where on earth such a talented person had appeared, targeting only his body.

Lia was completely toyed with by him, letting out a moan that could not be heard even that night.

***

Director Mernis placed the magic tool he brought from the First Prince’s room on the desk and was lost in thought.

From what I found out, this type of magic tool is a video recording device imported from the empire.

Rather than creating a manipulated or virtual image, you can project what actually happened and record it as an image identical to reality.

In other words, what happens in this video actually happened. And I was sure without even thinking about who the culprit was.

The First Prince could have noticed if he had taken this from his room, but as Lia’s father, he couldn’t leave this video in his room.

I didn’t even ask anyone else about this. I only looked into magic tools that looked like this.

It was a video that helped me immediately understand Lia’s recent condition.

Nevertheless, the fact that Lia was still continuing to guard the 1st Prince meant that she did not know that the culprit was the 1st Prince.

I thought it was nothing but an elaborate crime. That mask and this magic tool said it all.

How dare you say that a person called royal family had such sinister thoughts after seeing the escort knight?

Does that also mean that the target was his daughter, and that he was leaving the video and watching it, leaving her with an indelible wound?

I felt like the blood in my whole body was being turned upside down. But I hated myself for not being able to act carelessly.

This will be a very sensitive video for Lia. If this was carelessly made public, there was a possibility that Ria’s reputation could be tarnished.

I wanted to cut off the First Prince’s head right away, but if I did that in a situation where I couldn’t reveal this video, there was only a chance that I would be accused of treason.

“Why on earth is this… How… ”

He ripped off Director Mernis’ head and buried his head.

He was someone who always overcame adversity through force, strength, and bravery.

But I couldn’t do that now. It was the first time I experienced pain.

“… … ”

I was immersed in anger for a while.

And in the meantime, there was only one solution that occurred to him.

bang-

He opened the door and went out.

No matter what happens next, I felt like I had to see the first prince’s reaction first.

There were thoughts of wanting to rip off his face right now, and there were also thoughts of trying to scoop him up.

You couldn’t really hit or cut him, but there was no need to hide your anger.

The 1st Prince also found out that his video had disappeared and that it was Director Mernis, so he wouldn’t be able to come out with confidence.

“… Prince.”

He stomped his feet as he walked until the royal bell rang, and came face to face with the first prince who was passing through the corridor at the same time.

“Ah, Lord Mernis. “Where are you going?”

He was very calm. The same expression as usual, as if nothing had happened.

His smile, which I had previously thought was kind, was so disgusting.

Are you saying that he has been plotting something insidious behind this smile all this time?

Does this mean that he is laughing so shamelessly even though he knows that the video has been passed on to someone else?

It was the moment when the evaluation of the first prince, Edric, was revised.

He was no longer a prince like a nephew to Director Mernis.

He was just a disgusting criminal of the worst kind.

Director Mernis’ fists were shaking. I wanted to beat that guy right up until he died.

“just… I was walking. Something… Have you forgotten anything? Prince.”

“yes? What I forgot… “I don’t think there is one.”

“I see… ”

There was silence between the two.

If the story had ended, he would have stepped aside, but Director Mernis stood tall, blocking the 1st Prince’s path.

“… Lord Mernis? “Do you have anything to say?”

bang-!

“… !”

When Edric opened his mouth first after remaining silent, Director Mernis couldn’t hold back and shook his fist.

“Well, Lord Mernis… ?”

Fortunately or unfortunately, his fist missed Edric’s face and hit the pillar behind him.

One of the pillars that made up the corridor collapsed in an unsightly manner.

Edric looked up at him, frozen and trembling, as the fist passed by his ear.

“The bug… It seems like there is. “I’ll just go.”

“Yes, yes… “You say so.”

Director Mernis passed by Edric without even wiping the bleeding fist from his hand.

Edric froze for a long time, looking at his back. The collapsed pillar was lying ungainly.

“what… “

Edric did not understand the situation for a while, but he soon took steps again.

This was because he had too much work to do to stay still.

“Edric… “

Wow-

Director Mernis walked in the opposite direction.

Squeezing his anger, the place he headed to was none other than the office of the Four Princesses.
