I Got Engaged to a Blind Duke Episode 150

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Marine gripped the dagger in her hand with a tense expression as she observed Shaira.

 

The Masked Men cleverly rushed in through paths that avoided Shaira, driving the others into a corner.

 

The place where the most Masked Men had invaded was near her own shade tent.

 

The 3rd Prince’s Knights quickly blocked the Masked Men.

 

[“Protect the lady!”]

 

As the Masked Men kept pushing their way in relentlessly, Karl tucked her under his arm and leaped out of the shade tent, stepping on a masked man’s shoulder.

 

Even while being carried by Karl, Marine threw her dagger at a masked man following right behind them.

 

The masked man easily dodged her dagger and persistently pursued them.

 

[“Take that woman!”]

 

The number of Masked Men following them gradually increased.

 

Karl glanced back, then suddenly chewed and swallowed a pill. He slipped his hand behind her knees, lifted her up in his arms, and suddenly increased his speed.

 

The wind brushing against her face was so strong that Marine couldn’t even open her eyes properly.

 

Is this really a speed a human can achieve?

 

It seemed faster than a horse.

 

Marine simply closed her eyes while being held in his arms.

 

The sound of the pursuing Masked Men’s footsteps could no longer be heard. Even so, Karl didn’t slow down at all. He seemed to know the desert paths well, shooting forward without hesitation.

 

Whenever she felt his gaze checking on her, Marine smiled broadly as if to show she was fine.

 

Though this was her first time being held by Karl, it felt as comfortable as if she had been held by him before.

 

She wished they could go straight to the Western Region like this.

 

Marine made this wish while feeling the fierce wind with her eyes closed.

Red blood droplets that had splattered in the air also fell on Tan’s cheek.

 

Tan wiped the blood from his face with the back of his hand, then looked down at Ban crawling on the floor with an indifferent gaze.

 

Ban crawling like an insect was not the man he had so revered, envied, and resented. He was just a pitiful creature struggling to survive.

 

“Is no one there! I said, is anyone there!”

 

Ban, whose both legs had been cut and could no longer walk, kept backing away while dragging his body.

 

“Don’t come! Don’t come closer!”

 

Ban grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at Tan.

 

But the sand couldn’t even touch Tan and scattered futilely in the air.

 

“You bastard! Do you think you’ll be safe after doing this to me!”

 

Ban glared at Tan with murderous eyes, grinding his teeth.

 

“You’re right, Elder Brother. I thought I would die immediately after doing this, but my neck is still attached.”

 

Tan widened his eyes as if surprised and smiled kindly.

 

“Hey, is, is anyone there?!”

 

The frightened Ban shouted with a trembling voice, but there was no one around.

 

“Oh my, there’s no one to help Elder Brother.”

 

“Why are you doing this! Just live and play around like you used to! Are you suddenly greedy for the Crown Prince position?”

 

“I’m not the least bit interested in the Crown Prince position.”

 

“Then why are you doing this to me!”

 

Ban raised his voice desperately.

 

“I just played around as Mother- no, Imperial Consort and Elder Brother told me to. I got tired of playing too, so I even prepared to die by taking the poison Imperial Consort gave me.”

 

Tan continued speaking leisurely as if telling someone else’s story, while shaking off the blood on his sword.

 

Ban’s eyes shook like a ship caught in a storm. However, he soon pretended not to know anything and asked back.

 

“Poison?”

 

“Surely, you didn’t know?”

 

Tan asked back with an exaggerated voice as if acting.

 

“I, I didn’t know. Is Mother taking revenge on me now by feeding me poison? Why are you doing this to me? You should go to Mother and confront her!”

 

Ban played dumb. When he shouted as if he felt wronged, Tan burst into loud laughter.

 

It was genuinely funny.

 

There’s no way he didn’t know about the attempt to poison him. How far should he pretend to be fooled?

 

“What reason would Imperial Consort have for trying to poison me? Wouldn’t it all be for Elder Brother’s sake?”

 

Ban seemed to have no words to refute this, biting his lips and rolling his eyes.

 

“So? Do you think Mother will love you if you kill me? You’re not even His Majesty’s child anyway!”

 

Tan’s brightly smiling face slowly hardened.

 

The truth he had tried so hard to bury surfaced.

 

When he first learned that the ingredient in the candy he had been eating was poison, even amid anger and despair, he wondered why Mother had tried to poison him.

 

Then, recalling his own appearance that didn’t resemble the Emperor, he tried to prove his love by following Mother’s will for any reason.

 

But he really wasn’t the Emperor’s seed.

 

“Can you prove those words?”

 

“I heard it from Maternal Grandfather. And you really didn’t know? You and His Majesty the Emperor don’t resemble each other at all.”

 

Tan scanned Ban’s face with his eyes. Elder Brother, who only resembled him in the lemon-colored hair inherited from Mother.

 

“You can’t become Crown Prince. So stop this!”

 

Watching Ban who was trembling with fear yet trying to bluff, Tan chuckled.

 

“Didn’t I tell you I was never interested in the Crown Prince position from the beginning?”

 

“Then why! Why are you trying to kill me?”

 

“Didn’t you try to steal my woman?”

 

Tan whispered softly in a monotone voice.

 

“Stop lying! That woman belongs to the Western Duke!”

 

Ban shouted, his neck bulging with veins from frustration.

 

“She’s in my arms now, so she’s my woman.”

 

Tan smiled gently while thinking of Marine.

 

The only woman who told him to live.

 

He decided to live for that woman.

 

But the Imperial Consort and Second Prince who were trying to kill him were also coveting Marine.

 

To continue being with Marine, to survive in the future, he had to eliminate these people one by one.

 

“You shouldn’t have coveted my woman.”

 

Tan raised his sword high.

 

“No, no I won’t. I’ll never try to take her again, so please spare me.”

 

Ban grabbed Tan’s pants with a tear-stained face and begged.

 

“Elder Brother. You fed me poison, and I swing my sword at you. Isn’t this truly beautiful brotherly love?”

 

Tan looked down at Ban with mad eyes and whispered in his ear.

 

“Just spare me. I won’t do it again-”

 

Ban’s desperate voice was cut off by Tan’s sword swinging without hesitation.

 

“It’s too late.”

 

“Mo, Mother will, forgive you…”

 

Ban, who had been coughing up blood and trying to continue speaking, collapsed onto the sandy ground.

 

Ban’s coldly stiffened eyes were filled with resentment toward Tan.

 

“Lord.”

 

A Knight who had been standing far away approached.

 

“Throw him to the Demon Beasts.”

 

“Yes. And there was an attack.”

 

“What about Sweetie?”

 

“She escaped with her bodyguard.”

 

Tan’s cold gaze turned toward War Oasis, the direction they had promised to meet.

 

Did she go there?

 

“Find her no matter what.”

 

“Yes!”

Gerald ran with all his might toward the place he had promised to meet Kay in advance.

 

In case the 3rd Prince might follow, they had agreed to meet in the opposite direction from War Oasis.

 

After running for a while, when he glanced down, Marine, whom he loved dearly, was peacefully sleeping in his arms.

 

A chuckle escaped him.

 

Should he warn Marine about her lack of crisis awareness, or should he love her more for sleeping safely in his embrace?

 

Of course, he chose the latter.

 

Kay, who they encountered while running in the opposite direction, followed and caught up from behind.

 

Only after crossing over the desert hill did the two stop simultaneously.

 

Kay looked at Marine sleeping comfortably in his arms with relief, then immediately stared at him. There was a large bag on Kay’s back.

 

“Miss needs clothes.”

 

“I understand. Marine.”

 

“Yawn- Yes.”

 

Marine let out a long yawn as she opened her eyes, then was startled.

 

No matter how comfortable Karl’s embrace was, to fall asleep in an urgent situation.

 

“Miss, it’s been a long time.”

 

“Kay!”

 

After jumping down from Karl’s embrace in joy, Marine hesitated in front of Kay for a moment, then spoke with difficulty.

 

“Kay, I’m sorry. Because of me, M… I’m truly sorry.”

 

Marine bowed deeply and apologized.

 

“Miss, please don’t do this. For the Shadow Guard, there is no greater honor than protecting their master and departing. M departed honorably while protecting you, Miss.”

 

Marine raised her head with a sad expression.

 

“Did M have family? I want to apologize to them directly.”

 

“He has no family.”

 

“I see…”

 

Elmis had also said she had no family. Is the Shadow Guard made up of those without families?

 

“Then Kay must be M’s family. I sincerely pray for his soul. And… I don’t know if this will be any comfort, but I took revenge for M.”

 

“Yes. I saw it. Thank you for taking revenge.”

 

Kay spoke with a voice filled with sincerity.

 

“How did you see it?”

 

“His Grace the Duke showed me through a vision stone.”

 

“Ah… Come to think of it, where is Gerald?”
