104. Wicked Women’s Engagement Ceremony (1)
104. Wicked women’s engagement ceremony (1)
Princess Charlotte of Orcia carefully walked out of the men’s bathroom toilet stall.
He hadn’t seen his face for a long time.
That’s why she never imagined that her condition would be this bad right now.
“It’s vacation, so why did you spend more time in other territories instead of at the family home, Damien? “Everything got messed up because of you.”
Impatient movement.
Charlotte was unable to keep her princess body and wandered around the bathroom distractedly.
“I must send you to the kingdom…” No, I need help… It’s too late. Oh no, it’s a waste of time to even have to explain this. “I’ll get to the point first.”
I will help you.
“So that I am not forced to become engaged to Nadia. I will help you. So that it’s okay if you don’t fulfill your pledge. The Kingdom of Orcia will do its best to help you.”
“You made me…” “Will you help me?”
“Okay, considering the affection I’ve seen throughout the semester, I will personally help you. “It doesn’t mean any harm to you, does it?”
An arrogant tone befitting a princess.
The news that she will help me is good news.
However, she had many questions and was difficult to completely trust.
“… “Charlotte.”
“Tell me.”
From Noble mtl dot com
“About that pledge. How do you know? “I don’t remember telling you.”
The only people I told about the covenant were Bluebell and Yuri.
No matter how much I search through my head, I don’t remember ever telling Charlotte.
This is not something to just ignore, but an issue that needs to be addressed.
“Why do you know that? Why do you want to help me? “It seems like too much favor to call us friends.”
Will Charlotte show her true feelings towards me?
If not, are you planning to trick me until the end and take me to the Kingdom of Orsia?
When asked to identify him, Charlotte answered with a stern expression.
“… “The woman named Bluebell told me about the oath.”
“Bluebell to you? “She’s not the kind of person Blue Bell would share with others.”
“… He didn’t speak to me, he spoke into the air. “I think the room next door to me once said she was the one.”
“Then, it means you overheard it.”
“… “I just picked it up.”
It’s obvious that he was eavesdropping with his ear to the wall.
Charlotte’s expression showed no remorse.
She seemed to think the behavior was part of her way of survival.
“Anyway, wouldn’t it be okay if the results are good? I heard about the oath. I said I would help you. No problem. “It’s a benefit to you.”
“I need to hear how you can help me other than to benefit me.”
More than that.
“There’s no time, so get to the point quickly. Nadia might come into the men’s room soon.”
“Why does a woman come into the men’s bathroom?”
“You were forced to come in too.”
“… That’s right. “That makes sense.”
Charlotte continued, taking a deep breath as if she was nervous.
“The Kingdom of Orsia will resolve the issue of the covenant. So, you can head to the Kingdom of Orcia with me.”
“How do we solve this? “If I don’t fulfill my pledge, I will die.”
“That’s just a story in the empire. Did you know that? “There is a designated area where God’s eyes can reach.”
… It’s my first time hearing that.
I am a reader who has read this novel more than 5 times.
This is my first time hearing that there is a designated area where God’s eyes can reach.
“The Empire is the Church of Zephyrus. Orcia is a member of the Helios Church. The gods that people believe in also differ depending on the region. As far as I know, as long as it’s outside the realm of the empire. “The effect of that oath will not be activated.”
“Hmm… “
“As long as you follow me to the Kingdom of Orsia. You can get away from that psychopath woman. She doesn’t have to be forced to get engaged. I can help you. Humans are animals that must pursue freedom, right? I will give you freedom.”
Charlotte seemed to be trying to persuade me somehow.
I will help you, you don’t have to force me to get engaged.
He tried to lure me in with those sweet words.
However.
“… But, Charlotte. “There is one thing you are mistaken about.”
“What is it?”
“I plan to get engaged to Nadia.”
Charlotte seemed to get hot for a moment at my words, and her fists were shaking.
But, I didn’t feel sorry for her.
‘He’s just trying to prolong his life by using me in the name of help. And, if I get Charlotte’s help… ‘
Due to the oath, he can never return to the empire again and must spend his entire life in the Kingdom of Orsia.
Even though Charlotte knew all about it, she tried to take me to the Kingdom of Orcia.
That’s why I didn’t feel sorry one bit.
‘There is still half a year left in the period when Charlotte was ordered to bring in talented people.’
I passed by Charlotte, who was quietly bowing her head and wiping his hands in his sink.
I was planning on leaving before Nadia noticed.
“Still, it was nice to meet you after such a long time, Charlotte.”
“… “
“See you again when the semester starts. Help is okay. Thank you for your concern.”
“… Okay, go in carefully.”
Kkiik-
Just like that, I refused Charlotte’s help and came out of the bathroom.
The last time I saw her back, she looked a little miserable, but I couldn’t say anything because if I received her help, 70% of the people in the empire would disappear.
“… “I hope you don’t end up making a big deal out of impatience.”
“Impatient? “Is that about me, Damien?”
“Ah, Nadia.”
As I was trying to wipe the water off her hands with her handkerchief, Nadia walked towards me from the women’s bathroom.
She looked at me with suspicious eyes, then put her nose to my clothes and sniffed.
“Sniff-“
“W-what are you doing, Nadia? “Why are you suddenly smelling my clothes?”
Nadia carefully checked the scent of her entire body, stopped her actions, and said,
“… “I guess nothing happened?”
Fortunately, Charlotte didn’t seem to be wearing her perfume.
I smiled sheepishly and responded calmly as if nothing had happened.
“It’s even weirder what’s happening. “It’s a bathroom.”
“That’s right, it’s a bathroom. “It’s weirder what happens.”
Fortunately, he seems to have been convinced.
Meanwhile, Nadia looked at her handkerchief in my hand and asked.
“What is that handkerchief, Damien?”
“Handkerchief. “I want to wipe the water on my hands.”
“Hmm, really? “Hold out your hand for a moment.”
“Suddenly? Okay.”
I don’t know why.
Nadia told me to hold out my hand.
I lightly held out my hand towards her as Nadia said.
Then, Nadia tried something unexpected to me.
“Chureup-“
“Wh-what are you doing?! Nastily!”
“Gamahi ihe.”
Nadia firmly pinned my arm and started licking my wet hand.
Mainly using the tongue. Sometimes using your lips.
As if I would not leave any water on my hands.
She took all the water from my hand into her mouth, as if she were a handkerchief.
“What is this…?” “
“Let’s go, Damian. “Drinks must have been served.”
“… “
After such strange and strange behavior.
Nadia walked quickly back to her seat as if nothing had happened.
I looked embarrassed and checked Nadia’s hand, which she had licked with care.
Instead of the water, it was filled with Nadia’s saliva.
“… “It’s the same thing, having to use her handkerchief.”

There is a saying that happiness comes after misfortune.
However, Bluebell recently learned that that statement is bullsh*t.
“f*ck, why do only bad things happen to me…” “
It sucks.
Bluebell lay on the bed and cursed.
She felt better when she said bad things.
However, it is only a moment.
“Ah, ahhh… I’m so annoyed… !!”
I got irritated again and found it difficult to maintain my emotions.
Bluebell got angry, pounding his fist on the soft bed.
“I wish I didn’t know! Why did those bastards give me that information?! Are you trying to use me as a puppet? That? Ha, never spread rumors. Why am I starting that rumor? “I would rather die than live according to what others tell me!”
Nevertheless.
One thought lingered in Bluebell’s head.
“… Still, her father must be avenged. I can’t bear to see the family that killed my father still alive. “I can never forgive you.”
Revenge.
I will not do as they say.
I tried to take revenge with my own thoughts.
Because only then will this frustrating feeling be relieved.
“That red-eyed b*tch who was born with a good family name… I’ll never see anyone living in a better family than mine… “
Bluebell lay in bed and used the fuel of depression to sharpen the knife of anger.
When you are weighed down by such negative emotions.
Knock knock-
“… Who is this? “Did you knock on the door because you wanted to die?”
-A letter has arrived, matriarch.
“I won’t read a letter unless it’s from Damian. Get out.”
-… It’s not Damian Youngsik, though. This is an important letter. Please read.
“Mr. Ai, you’re so annoying… “
At the butler’s request, I had no choice but to slowly get up from the bed.
Bluebell opens the door! After opening it and glaring at the butler, she intercepted it as if stealing the letter.
“That’s enough, get out now.”
“How about rice-“
“Can’t you hear me telling you to turn off?!”
Boom!
Bluebell returned to the room after receiving her letter.
“An important letter. Who sent it… “
Nadia looked at the front of the letter and put her sender in her mouth.
“Duke Berdium… “
Squeak-
And then I read the letter.
“… Under.”
After reading the letter, Bluebell immediately tore it up.
“Anything that says happiness comes after misfortune is bullsh*t.”
Happiness comes at once, and misfortune comes at once.
“You drawing bastard… Send me a wedding invitation… ?”
I was in a bad mood, but this was a good opportunity.
“I guess I’ll just play the game. Do you think I’ll just sit back and watch? “I have nothing more to lose.”
Bluebell hid the sword in her heart and prepared to leave for the Verdium territory.
And, at that time.
“Well, Damian… engagement… B, I am the Grand Duke of the North… Why not me… Do it with the duke family… ?”
A letter also arrived to Yuri, who had become the head of the northern family.
“I have to go…” To stop the engagement… I have to go… “
Just like that, engagement invitations arrived for everyone.
All the evil women started running toward the Verdium territory.
