50. Do you know a genius who has become a stuffed animal? (3)

After Nadia caught a weakness that was not a weakness.

I became a servant of the artist and helped her in her creative activities.

“Damian. White paint.”

“Yes.”

Jjiik-

I squeezed the paint onto Nadia’s palette.

Nadia glanced at the amount of her paint and nodded her head at me, ordering.

“Sit on the couch and wait.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes.”

I feel like I’m being treated like a dog.

Still, I was glad Nadia didn’t hit me.

Leaving Charlotte’s body odor in the art studio.

I even considered the worst case scenario of being stuffed.

‘Still, how did you get so much attention… Rather grateful?’

Is it because the standard is set for Nadia in the novel?

I felt grateful to be alive now.

I was thankful that one arm was still attached.

“Damian.”

“Uh, why?”

Nadia turned her head and gestured to me.

“Work stuck. Because she’s had enough sitting on the couch. Come and sit in front of me.”

“Yeah, what. It doesn’t matter.”

Are you planning to draw with me in front of you?

I sat down on a wooden chair placed in front of the canvas without hesitation.

Nadia focused on my face, then she started to paint again on the canvas.

Her face was dissatisfied.

“This is not it. A little more. To be recognized for my drawing skills. It has to be more perfect.”

“Which part gets blocked?”

“Everything. I don’t like it.”

Nadia reached out for her canvas.

Kwajik-!

In front of my eyes, the canvas was dented like a soda can.

‘My face… ‘

My portrait on canvas was distorted in an instant.

I couldn’t say anything about it.

“… “

“What I want to draw. You should draw better than this. But, I don’t like it. Damian.”

“Ugh, huh?”

“Is there any better way?”

Um.

In the original novel, Nadia was unable to win prizes in all drawing contests due to Aunt Medeus’ interference.

But wouldn’t she be sweeping the prizes at every drawing contest now?

‘As long as you don’t draw my portrait.’

Even if I draw it, I will receive an award.

I pretended to be as objective as possible when I spoke about the situation.

“Why don’t you stop drawing me? It was a landscape painting for the entrance exam, but you drew my portrait together. I think it diminishes the quality of the work.”

Are you a little talkative?

As if my words had scratched her pride, Nadia furrowed her eyebrows.

“Don’t be afraid, Damian. Now you are my servant Puke about my painting?”

“… Even servants have eyes to see. I think you should stop drawing my face. The quality of the work is also declining.”

Because there will also be bad rumors going around.

I don’t know what kind of damage my family will suffer from the rumor that he keeps painting my portrait.

If it’s the Verdium family that has bad rumors about the emperor’s camp.

The Verdium family has not had a good relationship with the imperial family since long ago.

I strongly expressed my opinion towards Nadia.

“In that sense. I think my paintings will rather poison you.”

“… I didn’t even have to listen to you, Damian.”

Still.

“Even if it sounds useless. Because it’s your opinion. Because it’s my Damian’s precious opinion. I’ll keep it in my head.”

Nadia said that and smiled, raising the corner of her mouth slightly.

“I don’t know next time. I really need your portrait for this contest.”

“… Why do you need my portrait?”

An uneasy feeling.

I asked to relieve that anxiety.

Anyway, that premonition seemed like a hit.

“I plan to stuff you in this competition. Even if not alive. I will stuff it through painting.”

This man is my man.

The man I wanted.

“Through this competition. I’m thinking of stuffing you properly. I mean it belongs to me.”

“… “

“I have no intention of stopping, so don’t even try to convince me. It’s a waste of time as you know. I don’t stop know?”

“… Okay.”

I see.

You’re thinking of stuffing me as your lover.

Borrowing a place called a tournament in front of many people.

If I had the strength to stop it, I would.

Nadia’s human body is close to disaster.

‘Oh… ‘

My head hurts.

Your actions are limited.

So, you have to make the best judgment.

‘All I can do now is… I’m just using this tournament to bring Nadia back to normal.’

We need to change the wrong mindset about ownership.

After the contest is over, by eliciting people’s reactions.

‘Your opinion is wrong. It has to be firmly imprinted on her head.’

Only that thought ran through my head.

I firmly believed that it was the only way for me and my family to survive.

***

I took a break sitting on the grass in Academy Park.

It’s because my head is complicated by the recent events that have happened in succession.

Academy Park.

I organized my thoughts while looking at the lake in ‘Fault Lake’.

‘It’s going according to plan, but… I’m a little worried… ‘

Is the plan really the right answer in the first place?

Doubt blooms in a corner of my heart.

The plan prepared for a long time collapses miserably due to the changing psychology of the wicked women.

The contents of the original work are strangely reversed and the future is not predicted.

“It would be nice to know the future… If you possess it, I’ll give you such fraudulent abilities… “

Even if I knew the contents of the original story in advance, I swept money from my family.

The ability to heal the evil women was absurdly lacking.

Let’s look at the sparkling lake reflecting the sunlight.

Compared to my situation, I naturally lament.

“… Still, the only answer is to think positively.”

“Ugh, ugh… i think so too… !”

“What, what.”

I’m surprised.

I hurriedly turned around at the voice I heard from behind.

Yuri was squatting and nodding at my words.

“Me too… I think it’s good to think good… !”

“Yuri, when did you come?”

Did you hear me?

How far did you hear me?

As if that wasn’t the case, Yuri replied with a bright smile.

“I just came… ! I’m looking for where Damian is… No, while taking a walk in the park… I came because I found Damian… Ehehehe… “

“… That’s right, sit next to me. It’s been a while since we met like this. Let’s talk.”

“Okay… ! Okay… !”

Yuri quickly sat down next to me.

I rarely met her because she was in a different department and had a different timetable.

It was a strange feeling for the two of them to remain together after a long time.

She used to always stick around in her mansion until she came to the academy.

I asked lightly, looking at the glass.

“How is the academy? Did you adapt well? Have you made friends?”

“I did well to adapt… ! Chi, my friend is still only Damian, but… That’s not to say I don’t like it… ! I don’t mind having one Damian as a friend… ! Academy is fun… !”

Yuri brings a positive smile.

Does she want to share with me what happened in class?

She took out a bundle of stories she had been hoarding.

“You know, even Damien… That I’m second in the swordsmanship department… ? The professor said I have talent… ! It’s not what Damian said… I’m not sure if I can trust it… It felt good to be praised!”

“So, did you feel good? Yuri is very talented in her own way.”

Good.

The power to love oneself.

It is a good environment to develop self-esteem.

I stroked her hair to compliment her.

“You are doing well. Just do it. Yuri will be a much greater person without me.”

“Even without Damian… ? I don’t think so… “

He made eye contact with me, saying clearly, not glass.

What she said seemed like Yuri’s sincerity without a single lie.

“I am a person who cannot be without Damian… I’m a person who can’t do anything… Without Damian, I, I… It’s like a leaf that has fallen on the floor… When winter comes, I will dry up… “

Jugul- Jjugul-

Yuri can’t straighten her shoulders due to lack of confidence.

‘I thought it would be okay at this point. It looks like it’s still a long way off.’

Yuri still had low self-esteem.

Still, if I think about it positively, maybe it is that she is not dust and that she chose leaves.

She compared it to an object that is quite a bit bigger than she thought.

‘If I’d rather be like this, I’d rather have an ignorant compliment.’

I stroked Yuri’s hair again.

“Then, on the contrary. If I’m by your side, you’re saying that Yuri is a great person? “

“Oh, no, not that much… “

“Awesome, Yuri! Praise, Yuri!”

“No, no… Don’t make fun of me, Damian… “

It works.

After giving her a compliment, she shut her mouth in shame and bowed her head.

Still, I felt that the villainess in the best condition in the current situation was Yuri.

She was with me the longest, and she went through hardships and adversity.

No wonder she was in the best condition.

“Glass.”

“Ugh, ugh… ?”

“A letter arrived saying that my younger brother would be born soon. Shall we go back to the family then?”

“Is it okay for someone like me to go… ?”

“How are you? After all, Mother considers you her family.”

“Me too… Think of it as a family… You do… ? Ehehehe… “

I wonder if Yuri didn’t even think about it.

She raised the corner of her mouth at the word family.

“That, yes… ! Come with me… ! Because I am Damian’s family… !”

“But don’t introduce yourself as family in front of others.”

“Why… ?”

“It could be misunderstood. We are friends.”

“Yeah, that’s right… still… !”

Yuri shouted, hiding her expression with her long hair.

“Wouldn’t it be okay if people misunderstood… ? Uh, that’s not it… ?”

“… “

“I didn’t know… Let me introduce you as my best friend… “

Yuri immediately corrects her opinion in response to my stinging gaze.

She almost canceled the idea that she was the most normal of the villains if she kept pushing that opinion.

Still…

‘It’s been a while since we rested together. It puts me at ease a little bit.’

Yuri becomes a relatively normal person when there is no other woman by her side.

So, Yuri and I took a break from our hard work at the park.

I felt like I could barely breathe under the pressure of the villains.

“As expected… I wish I could be with Damian for the rest of my life… “

“What, what?”

“No. Nothing… no. Ehehehe… “

… Am I right?

I was a little puzzled.

***

The time he claimed to be Nadia’s attendant passed helplessly.

She focused on her creative activities more than I thought, and we had less time to talk to each other.

Nevertheless.

“I have nothing to do now. May I leave?”

“No. Stay still. Don’t go out.”

“… Okay.”

She ordered me to remain in the art room unconditionally.

She said she would serve as an attendant for one month, the duration of the tournament.

She had no choice but to sit quietly on the sofa and study.

Nadia is engrossed in her painting work, and I am studying to preserve my reputation as a genius.

We gathered in one place without a single voice and did what we had to do.

‘… It’s a relief that it ended at the point where Bluebell’s suspicions were getting worse.’

It was a thing of the past.

Bluebell said that after her academy was over, she tried to make an appointment to play with me.

“Hey, let’s play. Damian. Is it time today?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“I’m busy.”

“Unlucky bastard! Study every day and die of old age!”

My shin was beaten every time I refused.

Like a Muay Thai fighter training his shins.

My shin gradually forgot the pain from Bluebell’s kick.

It is not for nothing that humans are called adaptable animals.

‘Yuri sometimes meets me on the weekend and comforts me. Faded a bit It will be time now. I’ll have more time to take care of them.’

At the end of such a process, the time of one month ended with somehow surviving safely.

Nadia never showed me a finished piece, and finished it.

To come and check on the day of the results of the competition.

By the way, he even showed me a satisfied smile saying that it was a masterpiece.

‘Nadia’s masterpiece is a bit scary… ‘

The day of the announcement of the art contest that began like that.

Students who wanted to see it could gather in the building of the Department of Fine Arts and appreciate the works being presented.

At first, I was going to attend alone and appreciate Nadia’s work.

By the way…

“Damian… Where are you today… ?”

“Hey Damian, where are you going? If you say you have an appointment today, will you die?”

Today.

The villains were obsessed.

Did it pile up a lot in a month?

They grabbed my arm and wouldn’t let go.

“Let’s play with me… Her best friend is always hanging out… We haven’t met too much lately… “

“Why do you keep avoiding me? Didn’t you find another woman? So leave me and say you have a promise. This bastard… I really don’t want to see you until I die alone in my room… ? Live with regret for the rest of your life… !!”

“… “

Wherever I go.

An obsession that seems to follow you to the end.

Because I could see their atmosphere and appearance sincerely.

“… Okay, let’s go together.”

“Where?”

“To the building of the Department of Fine Arts.”

I had no choice but to take them to the site of the competition.

At the place where the art contest where Nadia’s masterpiece is presented.

‘I feel like I’m going to my ex-girlfriend’s wedding with my current girlfriend… ?’

I felt strange for some reason.
