51 – Fishing (3).
I could see Physis and Selina talking.
A blazing red catch. Contrasting color with my dark blue hair. Selina was a strangely intrusive person from the first time we met.
Even at a glance, that person is the kind of person that makes me think that he is my opposite.
Seeing such a woman wagging her tail at Physis, dark emotions overflowed inside.
Know. That it was just an act of acting.
Even so, it was quite hard to see Physis gossip about me in front of a woman like that.
Isn’t that contradictory indeed? If I didn’t want to see him like that, I would have wished he had put away the unreasonable acting.
But I couldn’t help it. Because I needed reassurance.
Phishes… … I’m sure you won’t turn your back on me.
“You seem to be in a lot of trouble. Princess Rodenov.”
“Ah, Sir William Devaton.”
William Devarton talking to me. I hardened my expression.
“I was surprised that you changed so drastically. It’s a pity that such a beautiful figure was covered by such scales.”
Even if I say something like that now, do you think I will get over it?
It was absurd. To the point where someone who hated me so much said that my appearance had changed. The author was a physiologically unpleasant person. To the point where disgust runs through your body just by facing it.
“What are you doing?”
“It’s not that I don’t have much to do… … You look uncomfortable.”
“Then let’s go. Don’t just talk. As Sir said, I am very, very, very uncomfortable right now.”
William’s expression hardened at the sincerity without the slightest hint of lies. That stiff face was unsightly.
“And sir.”
“Yeah?”
“I don’t want to see Kyung’s face today. You didn’t think you wouldn’t know, did you? These are the words you have told me.”
“What do you mean by that?”
It was shameless to see him take off his pretense. Did you think you didn’t hear? No, it would be knowing and pretending not to know.
“A monster princess with scales that is disgusting… … . Who said this? But now that you’ve come and said that to me, it’s disgusting.”
“that’s… … !”
“As you say, I am a monster, so my senses are a bit more developed than others. Seeing you in the first place, I didn’t want to come to a place like this at all… … . I’m grateful that you came because you thought of your family’s face.”
His expression contorts. Well, you should have been careful.
“And tell your friends too. If you don’t want to be roasted by magic, refrain from that filthy mouth. I know?”
As a last word, I distanced myself from him.
I was in a bad mood.
But there was still work to be done. I think Physis will start acting in earnest now… … Wanting to focus on that a little bit, I quietly strengthened my hearing.
Amidst the noise of the banquet hall, a pleasant low-pitched voice and a voice that was annoying to hear were blending together. It was definitely the voices of Physis and Selina.
“So Sir Physis is forced to stay in Rodenow right now?”
“You can see that. To be honest, it’s disgusting and uncomfortable. Rodenov was the worst place for me.”
As soon as I heard that, my expression naturally turned miserable. I’m sure you know that everything he says is acting.
no. Is the smoke right? Could it be that he is actually in his heart?
Wasn’t the place I loved the most, in fact, the place he hated the most?
The anxiety that had been lodged in a corner of his mind was gradually materializing.
no. don’t think like that It’s just smoke.
I comforted myself and focused on their conversation. To catch when I need to step out.
And finally… … Physics started talking about me.
“I hate Princess Rodenov. It wouldn’t change people just because they took off that terrible womb now. Just looking at it fills me with disgust.”
That said, even knowing that it was acting, my heart ached.
I walked towards them, matching his cold voice.
Selina and Physics looked at me with puzzled expressions, and I kept my distorted expression.
Damn!
Fiercely hit Physis on the cheek.
* * *
The hand that slapped my cheek tingled.
oh
hit too hard
Even though I knew it was an act, I was emotionally agitated by the gossip coming out of his mouth, so I unknowingly slapped him on the cheek so hard.
Phissis covered her cheeks with a bewildered expression and looked up at me with a very gentle smile in a moment so short that it would be impossible to know unless I was looking at it from the front.
like. He seemed to say he did well.
“What are you doing now?”
Cold words that were different from his expression flowed from his mouth, but his expression was not that cold.
With that expression, I felt the anxiety inside me wash away little by little. That there was nothing he would suddenly change, that kind of belief started to fill up little by little.
“What are you doing? If you spread gossip about me like that, did you think I wouldn’t know?”
“under. I’m dumbfounded. So, did you say something that wasn’t true?”
“At least it’s a story we should have solved.”
“What do you talk about with someone you can’t communicate with?”
“Do you know that the same goes for you?”
I continued acting. We teamed up with him and released bad words about each other.
Even so, the expression he looked at me was exciting, like seeing something interesting, but I was sure of one thing.
He doesn’t seem angry with me. Even if you did something stupid like this.
I felt a little bit sad, and I shed a tear without even realizing it.
His face, which had been relaxed all along, spread bewilderment, and I felt that the surroundings were in a commotion from the tears I shed.
In the end, people intervened between us and stopped our quarrel, and the banquet ended like that.
Having successfully ruined the social gathering, I returned to the accommodation given to me with a slightly pounding heart.
As soon as I entered the room, my legs gave out without even realizing it, and I sat down.
With the attitude of Physis I saw today, I was finally able to be sure. He won’t turn his back on me.
thank god. really, i’m glad
However, the feeling of sorry for Physis continued to grow. How the hell am I supposed to apologize to him?
Worry and anxiety began to rise in my heart. Aren’t the original emotions fluctuating rapidly?
Even if the situation was over, the disapproval he felt for me could still be there, so apart from the expression he showed me earlier, he could have come to hate me.
I hate that.
I didn’t like him chatting with other girls, and I didn’t want him to hate me. So I wanted to see his face and apologize quickly, but I couldn’t even go to his room.
no. Wait a minute.
There was a way.
Couldn’t we use the invisibility magic and sneak into his room?
The method that came to my mind seemed pretty good, so I immediately deployed the invisibility magic on my body.
Confirming my disappearance in the mirror, I moved toward Physis’s room.
* * *
My cheeks tingled from being hit by Adilun. Judging by how sharp his hands were, he seemed like he would learn any martial arts quickly.
Adilun’s wounded expression still flickered in front of my eyes. Also, I knew it would be like this.
When Selina asked me if I was okay, I nodded and went straight into my room.
I should have apologized… … What to do. Shall we secretly sneak into Adilun’s room? I was familiar with the structure of the mansion, so it might be okay.
The banquet was ruined by the two of us, so there was nothing to do, and from tomorrow onwards, there will be quite a few princesses approaching me.
All you have to do is sort out Adilun’s enemies and allies… … It’s better to unravel Adilun’s heart today. Because he seemed to be very hurt.
With that thought in mind, when I opened the door, I could see that there was someone in front of me, although no one was in the hallway that was revealed.
When I activated my senses, thinking it might be a trickle, I began to see the shape of Adirun, shimmering in front of my eyes.
“Adilon… … ?”
As soon as I called her name, she entered my room and closed the door. As soon as I closed the door, she revealed herself to me. Apparently, it seemed that she used invisible magic.
After canceling the invisibility magic, she immediately handed me an apology.
“I-I’m sorry. It hurts a lot, right?”
Adilun said that and stroked my cheek.
“Okay, it’s okay. I’m really sorry. I wonder if I didn’t speak too harshly… … .”
In the momentary warmth that hit me, I couldn’t help but stutter without even realizing it, and she shook her head vigorously, startled by my words.
“It’s what I did. I was fine too.”
However, the expression on her face when she said that seemed quite dangerous.
“Are you really okay? Please tell me the truth.”
I gave her a worried look, and she let out a sigh, perhaps realizing it, before opening her mouth.
“Nope. Actually, it wasn’t okay. Even though I know it’s acting, my heart hurts so much… … . I’m so sorry. I’ve done a bad thing to you I just shouldn’t have done this.”
Little by little, tears start to form in her eyes. It was quite heartbreaking.
I grabbed her hand as she stroked my cheek and held her in my arms.
“It’s really okay, don’t cry.”
“I tested you on my own, is it okay for me to forgive you like this?”
“it’s okay. I knew the truth. that you’re trying to test me Perhaps you were also anxious. You must have thought that I might suddenly turn my back on you.”
“… … Yeah.”
“So I understand why you did this. Because I knew that the wounds I inflicted on you during the year were quite large. You must have had your own reassurance. I’m sure I won’t turn my back on you anymore.”
“yes. Yes.”
“How about it, are you sure now?”
“When you looked at me earlier, looking at that expression… … I was sure. So I’m more sorry. I thought I was testing someone like this.”
“That’s fortunate. Anyway, I forgave you, so don’t feel guilty.”
“… … Yeah.”
I loosened my arms and let her go, and she stared at me with her eyes a little red, then smiled broadly and said,
“thanks. Physis. I will trust you now.”
“It is such an honor.”
My heart raced for a moment, but I didn’t show it, I said it playfully, and smiled at her in the same way.
Little by little, little by little. If you move forward step by step like this, the time will surely come someday.
I’ll wait for that time
