42. Double desire for double desire
Currently, Asil is clearly suffering one-sidedly from our strategy. I’m a little sorry from the point of view of using it, but it’s the same as each other. Didn’t this guy come because he wanted the power of Descartes?
“You don’t look good. Are you all right?”
France asked casually. There was not the slightest hint of malice in her voice. On the other hand, Asil’s bulging eyes were full of malice.
“… Are you pretending you don’t know what’s wrong? Or do you really not know?”
Frances tilted her head as she tapped her cheek with her index finger.
“I’m sorry. I’m not sure what you’re talking about?”
Asil’s expression crumpled like a demon. As Frances kept mentioning her swordsmanship until just a moment ago, she gently scratched away at Asil’s terrible rebellion that she had been hiding so far.
However, Frances moves like a snake to evade Asil’s wrath. She was in a situation where she couldn’t help but get even more pissed off.
“Aren’t you ignoring me too much? Princess Descartes. I know you’re talking back and forth to insult me, using a strange way of speaking. Are you still going to avoid it?”
Frances shrugged her shoulders as if something was wrong.
“You overheated. How about calming down first?”
“Are you serious now? I understand all your intentions?”
She can’t manage her expression and she knows her arms are constantly wriggling. There is still a band of blood on her neck.
“My intention? What are my intentions?”
“Didn’t you insult me, who is not good at swordsmanship from a knight family?”
“Uh, did I insult you?”
Frances continued her words, raising the corners of her mouth.
“Hmm. Is it so. Let’s say she insulted her by conceding a hundred times. But is it a sin to be bad at swordsmanship in a knight’s family? Maybe you can’t Because each person has different strengths. Is there any reason to use a sword well just because you are from a knight family?”
Oh, something the heroine says when she comforts her male lead. What will Asil’s reaction be?
“You wouldn’t know. How I was treated because I couldn’t wield a sword in a knight’s family. So I put in a lot of effort to make my strengths. In order not to be rejected by this family.”
She knows best what it feels like to be treated badly.
“Ah… …. That is also a sad story.”
France became sullen. She directs what Frances does best. Having received her sympathy, her Asil’s face crumpled again.
“So, don’t sympathize with me while making that face!”
“What about sympathy? Hearing sad things can make you feel sorry for them.”
Asil faded her lips and strained her eyes. She looked up at the sky. She seemed to be trying hard to keep her sanity. Here she has to land the final blow for Franze. Only then will the proper fight begin.
“Is that because you can’t use a sword? You can’t beat a single soldier, can you? Still, he’s the third son of Priden, famous for his knightly family.”
France once again touched the odds. Asil is extremely untalented with a sword. No, she just can’t do anything with her body. Fortunately, I’m good at clerical work, but in this world, force is more important.
“I can’t stand any more insults. Princess Descartes.”
A thick band of blood rose up on her asil’s neck. His arms continued to squirm, and his eyes were full of hostility.
“There was no such thing as a crazy b*tch. There must be something wrong with the head.”
It started.
“… Are you done talking now?”
“What would you do if you said everything?”
Boom! Asil slammed the table down with all his might. The teacup fell to the floor. Clink! Shards of glass scattered all over the floor.
“I can see why your engagement to the Persian family was broken. The Duke of Persia must have noticed that she was such a bad-tempered and flawed woman. How much had I hated you to spread rumors that you were gay?”
Francesca opened her eyes shallowly and glared at Asil. You can’t be shaken by something like that. Don’t forget her purpose.
“Even before I came to the Duchy, I thought about how to rehabilitate you, but I didn’t expect it to be to this extent. It’s incurable. Descartes figures. Isn’t the reason why you had a marriage talk with me because you were kicked out of the duchy?”
Asil’s constant vitriol. Frances took a deep breath and regained her calm.
“You seem to have said everything, so I will also say something.”
Drreuk. Frances rose from her seat and her chair was pulled back. She opened her eyes and stared at Asil.
“Is it because your swordsmanship skills are so poor that you yawn? It’s not worth talking about.”
Asil said, “What?” Narrowing his eyebrows.
“If you’re so narrow-minded and can’t hold back your anger, what are you going to do later? No, was it taught in the Fryden family? As a family that only knows how to use a sword, there are some ignorant parts.”
Asil’s eyes widened at the insults he spat out like a rapid-fire cannon. Frances continued.
“I can’t tell you the level of education that goes on in the Pryden family. You said you manage the Marquess, right? Even if you don’t look at it, you can see the state of Yeongji. It must be lousy and insignificant, like you.”
France touched her third challenge. She lacks family swearing, and she even swears at Yeongji, which Asil values most.
“You crazy b*tch!”
Kudangtang! Asil lost her temper and overturned her table.
“You’re the craziest b*tch I’ve ever met. It’s not enough to make a personal attack and even insult the family. Are you thinking about the future?”
France laughed in response.
“You started first, didn’t you? I just responded to him.”
“Don’t you think that you are the cause? You think the reason I exploded like this is because of you?”
“Okay. I was just telling the truth, and you were the one who overreacted and got excited, right?”
Frances stiffened his head and laughed at Asil.
“Do you know the expression of self-consciousness? You are caught in delusion of persecution. I hope you will carry that ugly inferiority feeling alone.”
Fast. Asil gritted his teeth and glared at Frances. The attendants must have noticed that the situation was serious, so they called Eden Descartes without our knowledge.
“… There’s no such thing as a complete mess. What is this?”
Asil and Frances look at Eden at the same time. Frances is expressionless. Asil had a face that was very angry because it was not managed.
“The Cartesian Cow Duke. This marriage is annulled.”
“… What do you mean?”
“That means I can’t marry such a crazy b*tch.”
Eden’s eyebrows twitched.
From noble mtl dot com
“What the hell happened, Frances?”
“It’s just a problem caused by Pride’s self-consciousness.”
Asil was hot.
“Are you planning to stay like that until the end!”
“I don’t know what you are talking about.”
Asil shouts while looking at Eden.
“Cartesian Cow Duke! The princess insulted my family and me. I cannot proceed with a marriage like this!”
Tsk, Asil clicked her tongue and turned her feet to stride out of her garden. Eden asked.
“What the hell happened?”
“In the middle of our conversation, Priden Youngsik just suddenly got excited.”
Haa, Eden let out a big sigh.
“Hey, slave. What happened?”
“I don’t know either.”
“You don’t know?”
“Yes. Suddenly, Priden Youngsik got angry.”
I looked up at her and met Eden’s eyes as I spoke.
“At first, the conversation went well, but I think Priden Youngsik was bothered by something.”
“What conversation did you have? As far as I know, Priden Young-shik is not a person to be recklessly angry with.”
“It was a story about a sword. Princess just said that men who are good at swords are her preference.”
Eden opened her eyes shallowly and glared at Frances.
“You say that men who are good at swords are your preference? Just hearing it for the first time What happened?”
“Your taste may change. Like all of a sudden I want to do business without the extravagance.”
Eden shook her head at France’s words. I can’t understand the situation itself right now.
“First of all, I understand. I’ll take care of this, so go in.”
France nodded without answering and walked away. I followed her Looking back at her, Eden’s order shows attendants clearing the messy garden.
I said on the way.
“It turned out well.”
“Sure. But I really didn’t expect it to come out so hot-tempered.”
“Because he has a strong inferiority complex.”
France said in a worried voice.
“But won’t it become a family problem?”
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Asil has strong pride and has a severe inferiority complex. He probably didn’t want to let Princess Descartes know that she had insulted her. For him, this is a very disgraceful thing.
If you talk about it in the family or in the social world, you will say that Frances refused because she is crazy, just like the rumors. In addition, he will disseminate this information widely in the social world and cut off her marriage.
‘I don’t know if it’s a good thing that the marriage ended.’
Well, later, when all my plans are successful and finalized, Frances will be able to choose the man she wants and marry her. Because she will become that powerful.
“Whoa. If you are, it will be fine.”
“Yes. So don’t worry too much.”
I looked at Frances and smiled.
“Your work is done, now let’s head to Kazar’s house.”
“Yes, I will. I need to cool off my overheated mood by learning magic.”
* * *
France’s marriage was broken, and Eden went straight to the Duke’s office. She knocked on the door three times and then rattled. Without answering, she opened it and went in.
“Father.”
“What happened?”
“Did your father plan it by any chance?”
“What are you talking about again?”
Eden opened her eyes shallowly and glared at her Duke.
“France’s marriage has been broken. A fight broke out with each other. Priden Yeongsik went back saying that he and his family had been insulted. My guess is that Frances deliberately offended Priden Youngsik. Could it be that the duke ordered it?”
Tak. The Duke put the fountain pen in his hand. Looking up, he met Eden’s eyes.
“I have never given such an order to Francesco. It’s just that we didn’t agree with each other. No matter how arranged marriages are, there are cases like that.”
“So you’re saying that Frances was thinking about it alone? If this continues, it could lead to family problems! It’s not something you just listen to!”
Eden was on the verge of madness. Frances openly insulted the Marquis of Pryden. Of course, since they insulted each other, it is recognized as both sides’ fault, but it was the one who sent the wedding talk. You can bite and hang in the family of Marquis Priden.
And having a marriage break up with a fight is to undermine the prestige of the Duke of Descartes. But your father just skips over this? Eden did not understand.
“Don’t worry unnecessarily. It won’t spread too much.”
“On what basis do you say that?”
“You don’t need to know.”
“… ….”
Are you not answering me? It’s like this every time. How do you view your son, the heir?
“I don’t think the conversation will work, so I’ll leave. I will take care of the matter with the Marquis of Pryden.”
The duke did not answer this time either. Eden shook her head and left her office. Thud.
“Whoa.”
At the time I was walking back to the office. A line nearby confirmed Eden’s face and spoke to him.
“What is it?”
“France broke the marriage talk.”
“What? She must have had an accident.”
Line let out a laugh. Eden asked.
“Where is France now? Do you know?”
“Where did she go earlier?”
Did you deliberately avoid the seat? She knows she’ll come back.
“What, can I help you?”
“No. You should go back too.”
“That’s not fun.”
Line turned his back.
“… ….”
Eden was lost in thought. Frances became strange at some point. She’s doing things she never would have done before, and she’s quitting the luxuries she’s always been into, even running her own business. His plan to get out of the duchy also seemed to have disappeared.
‘Since when?’
I recalled the past days. And the answer is not far away.
‘From then on.’
From the point of bringing Jean Barenberg, the royal family of Warenberg, into slavery.
‘There is something about him.’
Eden’s face grew cold.
