Chapter 30
Even though I said I wasn’t Lady Flone, he still called me Lady Flone.
Right. I knew he wouldn’t believe me. I picked up the spear and shrugged my shoulders while looking at him.
“You thought I was a mountain beast, didn’t you? That’s what you get for secretly spying like that.”
Luzef was still pure and beautiful. But he had a very fierce personality, making him a difficult man to get close to.
The female lead Yuanna had known Luzef since their days at the Papal Court, but even so, it took quite a long time for her to become close with him.
“Who was spying? I wasn’t spying!”
Luzef shouted like he was screaming, then stopped abruptly.
He looked at me up and down with a surprised face for a moment, then looked over my shoulder.
There, the fish I had caught were scattered across the pebble field.
“But did you really go fish hunting?”
I nodded with a puzzled expression. He stared blankly at the fish scattered on the pebble field. The way he gulped down his saliva showed he was quite hungry.
It seemed he had been watching me catch fish underwater too.
“Lady Flone actually went hunting… I can’t believe it even seeing it. This doesn’t make sense. Even a passing demon would laugh at this.”
Luzef rambled incoherently in a daze.
‘A passing demon would laugh? That’s so crude.’
However, it wasn’t me who responded to Luzef’s words.
“Who’s spying on what?”
It was Enoch.
His sharp, unrefined gaze turned toward Luzef. Enoch didn’t seem to have any intention of hiding his displeased expression.
“It’s been a while, Bishop. But if you value your life, you’d better shut that mouth.”
His low murmuring voice sounded just like a beast growling.
If voices alone could tear a person apart, I thought Enoch would probably have torn Luzef to pieces long ago.
Enoch seemed to be wary of almost everyone except me.
Of course, given our special circumstances, we couldn’t trust anyone. Even so, it was still an unfamiliar sight to me.
“Your Highness Crown Prince?”
Luzef looked at Enoch with disbelieving eyes.
Enoch and Luzef showed reactions as if they were meeting each other for the first time on the island.
It seemed Diego hadn’t told his companions that he met with Enoch regularly.
“Are there no other people?”
“That… I don’t know.”
It seemed he had also hidden things about his companions from Enoch.
Diego was one of the characters who wanted to monopolize Saint Yuanna, so it made sense.
“How is Your Highness here…? No, why is Your Highness with such a witch-like lady? Did that witch finally do something to Your Highness?”
Luzef glared at me with a fiercely contorted face as he spoke. It was self-inflicted, but since I wasn’t actually the one who did those things, I was sick to death of being called a witch.
“I knew something was suspicious from when you asked me to make a love potion. There’s never been a normal person who tries to win someone’s heart so easily. You witch! Tell me exactly what’s going on here!”
“Hah…”
I pressed my temples with a tired expression. The method to shut Luzef’s mouth wasn’t difficult. Eventually, I loaded a flare and pulled back the hammer.
“Bishop? Are you going to keep making noise like that?”
I aimed the gun barrel of the flare precisely at Luzef’s face.
“You know what this is, right? Bang!”
When I pretended to pull the trigger and shoot, Luzef’s face turned pale white.
“If you know, shut up and put your hands up. Before I shoot.”
It was a line I had always wanted to say at least once before dying.
Luzef knelt down with a humiliated expression and raised both hands. His pure white bishop robes were a mess, but his water-colored hair still looked as fine as silk.
His drooping eye corners made him look gentle, but you really can’t judge a person by their face alone. To have such a foul temper with such a pitiful face.
“As expected, this witch…!”
Thud!
Luzef couldn’t finish his sentence. Kaiden, who had appeared from somewhere, kicked him in the back.
“Ugh.”
Kaiden stepped on Luzef’s back with his foot and smiled.
“Do you want to die? I already hate priests enough as it is.”
Kaiden’s words reminded me that there was historically deep animosity between mages and priests.
“What’s this, even wearing bishop robes? Are you an archbishop? Well… did you crawl in here wanting to die by my hand?”
The longer Kaiden spoke, the more miserably Luzef’s face crumpled as his back was stepped on.
“You filthy mage…!”
Come to think of it, priests treated mages as humans with corrupted souls.
Mages were similar to modern scientists, and they conducted all kinds of research.
When it came to research, mages didn’t hesitate to conduct biological experiments.
Actually, the temple also conducted experiments, but they only did experiments underground while pretending otherwise on the surface and condemning mages.
Naturally, mages found such priests disgusting.
Enoch, who had been quietly watching the confrontation between the two, let out a sigh.
Just then, Luzef was stealthily getting up and straightening his clothes.
“Hey, lackey. Who told you to get up?”
When Kaiden tapped his shoulder, Luzef’s face contorted menacingly.
When priests commonly humbled themselves, they called themselves servants of God. So mages used the word ‘lackey’ as a derogatory term for priests.
“Shut that mouth, you loser.”
At Luzef’s words, Kaiden burst into laughter.
“Anyway, these lackeys don’t even know how to curse properly.”
“Don’t put you and us on the same level. It’s beneath us.”
Luzef gritted his teeth and glared at Kaiden as he spoke.
Kaiden picked his ear and nodded halfheartedly. That made Luzef even angrier, which was definitely intentional.
I stood with my arm linked with Enoch’s, watching the two fight, then asked Luzef.
“Are you alone?”
As I remembered, Luzef had been traveling with Yuanna’s group.
Luzef, who had been arguing with Kaiden, turned to look at me with his face flushed red from excitement.
“No, I have companions.”
As expected, he seemed to be with the female lead.
“Then why are you wandering around alone?”
Luzef’s face turned red in a different way this time. He glanced at Kaiden and Enoch for a moment, then looked over my shoulder.
At the end of Luzef’s gaze were the fish I had caught earlier.
He was definitely hungry.
“To find food…”
Luzef said hesitantly.
“…Actually, we haven’t eaten anything but fruit for several days.”
As if ashamed of this fact, his face turned bright red and he hesitated.
“Originally we hunted small animals like rabbits, but lately we haven’t seen any huntable beasts. No one knows how to hunt fish…”
No one who knows how to hunt fish.
Only then did I remember that the male leads on that side were just the Royal Guard Knight Commander, a cleric, and a prince. Well, they wouldn’t have tried fish hunting…
“Could you share some fish?”
At my question, Luzef’s face brightened considerably. However, as soon as he made eye contact with me, he quickly switched to a guarded stance.
“But is Lady Flone really the Lady Flone I know?”
That must be a mandatory line for male leads meeting me for the first time. Is it on some required question list or something?
“Whether she’s the Lady Flone you know or not, what does it matter? You won’t be seeing Margaret after today anyway.”
Luzef shut his mouth tight in panic at Enoch’s menacing murmur.
‘You won’t be able to see Margaret after today.’ Those words sounded exactly like a threat to kill Luzef.
What was this, Medusa? Did everyone who saw Margaret even once have to die?
I found it so amusing that I couldn’t help but laugh foolishly.
Grumble grumble grumble.
And in the brief silence that followed, a loud sound demanding food came from Luzef’s stomach.
When we both looked at Luzef simultaneously, he panicked and hung his head with a face that had turned bright red.
The sun happened to be setting, so it was about time for us to eat dinner anyway.
In the end, we gathered around the campfire with Luzef in tow. I’m too kind for my own good. I might not care about other things, but I can’t stand watching someone go without food.
I grilled the fish I had hunted earlier over the campfire, and seeing this, Luzef opened his eyes wide with a look of wonder.
“So this is how you grill and eat fish.”
Luzef licked his lips as he spoke, seemingly unaware that he was even doing so.
How hungry must he have been… Food is so important, after all.
I handed him another fish from my portion as he hurriedly devoured the grilled fish.
He repeatedly thanked me with a moved expression on his face.
It seems there’s no room for pride when faced with hunger. To think he’d gratefully accept kindness from someone he dislikes.
Luzef finally finished his meal with a satisfied expression only after devouring even Enoch’s portion of fish.
