Chapter 83
“Damn it, what are you doing?”
Kaiden immediately made an unpleasant expression at that creepy sensation, but Yuanna was relentless.
“That’s… I don’t know either, really.”
Soon she buried her face in his shoulder and let out a strange breath. Hot and humid breath touched his skin.
“Damn it.”
Kaiden put Yuanna down as if throwing her, his face full of disgust. He felt so unpleasant that he couldn’t stand it.
“It’s disgusting, so don’t do this kind of thing. I won’t go easy on you just because you’re a saint.”
“If I touch you a little… it seems to get better, Lord. Just stay still, please… It’s not like you’ll wear out.”
Yuanna slowly approached him with unfocused eyes.
Panicked, Kaiden crossed both arms in front of his chest to defend himself and shouted.
“I will wear out. Damn it, I said I’ll wear out!”
‘Should I just abandon them and leave!’
Kaiden hurriedly stepped back, desperately suppressing the urge to abandon both of them. But if he did that, Margaret might distrust and hate him.
‘I’m already annoyed to death because the Crown Prince is trying to monopolize Margaret, that absolutely can’t happen.’
Kaiden sighed and slung Yuanna, who was sitting on the floor crying loudly, over his shoulder.
“Please help me, Lord.”
But this time Diego drew his sword and started spouting nonsense.
“Shouldn’t you put away that sword before saying such things?”
Kaiden lightly jumped up while carrying Yuanna, avoiding the sword cutting through the air. Diego’s sword struck where he had been standing just moments before.
‘That crazy bastard.’
Kaiden swallowed his curses and glared at Diego.
“My whole body is so hot I’m going crazy. So please… do something about me, Lord.”
Diego twisted his face in agony and tears streamed down his cheeks.
“Lord, me too…”
And Yuanna, who was in Kaiden’s arms, also twisted her body in apparent agony and sniffled with tears. Her body was already burning hot.
“I’m really going crazy, what do you mean do something! Stop talking nonsense and all of you shut up!”
At that moment Diego charged again. Kaiden jumped onto a fallen wooden post to avoid Diego’s sword.
It wasn’t easy to dodge Diego’s consecutive sword swings while holding Yuanna. Eventually Kaiden struck the back of Yuanna’s neck to knock her out, then laid her on the floor.
As if he had been waiting, Diego swung his sword at him again. Kaiden hastily drew his dagger to block the long sword.
Naturally, the dagger’s edge was chipped by the merciless force. While Kaiden had the advantage in monstrous strength, it was difficult to keep up with Diego’s swordsmanship as he freely wielded his long sword.
Kaiden eventually picked up a sturdy tree branch and aimed for the back of Diego’s head, barely managing to knock him out, then wrapped tree branches tightly around his body.
Lifting an unconscious adult man, especially a knight with massive muscle mass, wasn’t easy, but it was nothing to Kaiden. In terms of pure strength alone, he was roughly equal to Enoch.
Of course, he could never beat Enoch with force alone without magic.
Kaiden dragged Diego as he was, climbed up a tall wooden post, and tied him up tightly, hanging him there.
If he didn’t want to fall and die from this height, he’d have to endure the agony without struggling.
When he came down from the tree after tying up Diego, Yuanna was already awake.
“Damn it, why did you wake up so fast?”
Kaiden muttered irritably.
“Lord….”
Yuanna frowned with a pained expression, then called out to him while tears streamed down her face.
Her appearance was enchanting enough to captivate anyone instantly. Enough to understand why Diego would turn his back on Enoch to protect her.
But it didn’t work on Kaiden. He looked at Yuanna with indifference and pondered.
‘I should tie her to the tree with Diego.’
He hoisted Yuanna over one shoulder and climbed up the massive tree where Diego had been hung.
Climbing one level higher than the tree branch where Diego lay unconscious, he laid Yuanna’s body down and secured her by tying her to the tree.
After finishing the task, he lightly jumped down from the tree.
Clang.
Diego’s long sword caught on his foot.
Kaiden bent down to pick up the long sword and examined it carefully. The handle was engraved with lion and lily patterns symbolizing the Imperial Guard of the Langrid Empire.
“I should have brought at least one weapon myself.”
There were many magic tools that could be used without infusing mana. If he had brought even one of them, it would have been as useful as the sword Diego carried.
Kaiden sighed and sat down heavily, leaning his back against a wooden post.
‘I’m going crazy wanting to use mana.’
Then the things he could do on this island would become limitless.
Kaiden leaned his head against the wooden post and looked up at the sky. The moon floating above the dusky sky was unusually bright.
“Hah… I’m tired. I wonder if Margaret is okay?”
The red flowers that caused Yuanna and Diego to have episodes probably didn’t bloom only where they were. That meant flowers might bloom where Margaret was too….
“Surely Margaret didn’t end up like the saint, did she?”
Kaiden got up and fell into anxious thought. Imagining Margaret having an episode like Yuanna, breathing heavily with excitement, somehow made his face feel hot.
“Am I crazy? It’s not like I’m sexually frustrated.”
Kaiden frowned and roughly ran his hands through his hair.
“Damn, wait. If Margaret becomes like that, the Crown Prince is right next to her, isn’t he?”
‘What kind of fucked up situation is this?!’
Everything was just speculation and assumptions. Even so, he was too angry to bear it.
If Margaret threw herself into his arms, he was confident he would never refuse her!
“Damn it. I should have stayed at the cabin even if Margaret hated me for it!”
Kaiden swallowed his irritation while pulling at his hair with a face full of regret.
17. Dice Game
As expected, what I possessed was mana, not divine power, so I couldn’t be of much help to Luzef.
“As expected, you’re useless.”
When Asdal delivered that brutal fact, Luzef suffered serious emotional damage and went up to the second floor, not coming down for quite a while.
Ever since the tarantula monster appeared, he had been reluctant to go upstairs, but he goes up just fine at times like this.
“Lady Flone, concentrate.”
I was standing in the clearing in front of the cabin, lost in thought, when I snapped back to attention at the sound of a sharp command.
Asdal lightly tapped my forehead with the tree branch he was holding.
“You have too many stray thoughts.”
“I’ve always had trouble focusing.”
“It’s alright, Margaret.”
Enoch gently encouraged me. Feeling grateful for no reason, I firmly grasped Enoch’s hand with my ring-wearing hand. A well-mannered man really is the best.
Asdal stood between Enoch and me, coaching us about magic power operation methods with a serious expression.
Of course, Kaiden could teach magic power operation methods more accurately, but rather than waiting for him to return, it was better to practice magic power operation even one more day.
Since we hadn’t even found a way to escape, I needed to quickly build up my strength to preserve my life safely for even one more day. Moreover, weren’t the magical beasts even evolving?
I pressed my lips tightly together and grasped Enoch’s hand again.
Rather than using mana directly myself, channeling it to flow into someone else was a more difficult and delicate task than I had thought.
I had to gather the intangible substance flowing within me and move it…
‘Huh? This isn’t as difficult as I thought.’
This task was supposedly difficult even for people who could freely manipulate mana.
However, I could move mana freely according to my will very easily. If I showed this too obviously, wouldn’t that also look suspicious?
So I deliberately showed signs of struggle and acted with reactions that an ordinary person would show. I intentionally disrupted the mana I had gathered, making it seem somewhat difficult.
“At this rate, wouldn’t it be faster to learn magic? It would be much quicker to deploy a magic circle and inject mana into it.”
I watched Asdal’s reaction and tried complaining that it was difficult once more. Asdal looked at me and firmly shook his head.
“Using mana only requires learning operation methods, but magic is different. With magic, injecting vast amounts of theory into your head takes priority. Young Lady, you must have seen how mages draw magic circles, right?”
I had just tried to act like it was difficult, but Asdal made such valid points that I had nothing more to say.
As he said, to use magic, unless you were a genius mage like Kaiden who could complete formulas in his head and manifest magic circles with mana alone, you had to draw magic circles by hand one by one.
The shapes of magic circles were extremely complex, and the shape of the magic circle was completely different for each magic you wanted to use.
“Even if Lord returns to help Young Lady, do you think it would be possible to master magic theory in such harsh conditions?”
His words were absolutely right. I decided not to resist anymore. And I diligently practiced magic power operation methods as Asdal instructed.
