Chapter 188
* * *
The next afternoon, Dana went to find Noah. However.
“Noah is sick?”
“Yes.”
Dana was flustered by the Servant’s words.
Sick, all of a sudden? He seemed perfectly fine yesterday when he was yelling at her…
“Dana.”
Dana turned around in surprise. And was startled.
“Brother?”
Lumiere was standing behind her. When, no, how did he know to come here?
She felt uneasy. She had been planning to avoid Lumiere for a while.
To think she’d meet him again so soon.
“I heard Noah was sick so I came to see. Are you here to visit him too?”
“Ah, I came to request that he accompany me to the Pilgrimage Site.”
She had planned to get closer using that excuse.
Noah wouldn’t be able to refuse. Refusing to accompany someone on a pilgrimage to become a Priest would constitute blasphemy at the Sanctuary.
“Shall we go in then?”
“But he’s probably sleeping right now…”
“It’s fine. I once lived in the same house as this guy as his cousin. I’m free to visit when he’s sick.”
When Lumiere opened the Door and went in, Dana didn’t refuse and quickly followed him in. Either way, this was a good opportunity to examine Noah’s Room.
‘Maybe I can find the Key to the Holy Mother Chapel.’
As soon as she entered, Dana thoroughly examined the Room. Let’s see. A place where he might hide a Key…
“Oh my.”
Lumiere, who had touched Noah’s forehead, clicked his tongue.
“You come feel this too, Dana.”
Dana cautiously approached and placed her hand on Noah’s forehead. And was startled.
“He’s burning up, isn’t he?”
“Yes.”
“It seems difficult for him to accompany you to the Pilgrimage Site. Shall I go in his place?”
“No.”
Absolutely not. Dana shook her head without a moment’s hesitation.
“It’s okay. I’ll wait until Noah wakes up for now.”
That’s when it happened.
“What are you doing?”
A completely hoarse voice flowed from below.
Had he woken up from the sound of their conversation?
Noah, who had slightly raised his upper body, was glaring at them with burning eyes.
“Are you two dating?”
His hazy gaze was fixed on their overlapping hands.
“Elder Brother, you even have a wife… are you trying to have an affair?”
He muttered with unfocused eyes.
“I knew it all along. That Elder Brother had ulterior motives toward that Woman… I knew it all along.”
“Noah must be very sick.”
Lumiere clicked his tongue and approached Noah. When he poked his forehead with his finger, Noah collapsed back onto the Bed helplessly.
“Noah needs more rest, so let’s go out.”
I want to look around the Room a bit more.
She thought about staying longer under the pretense of nursing him, but Lumiere pulled her hand.
Coming out to the Corridor, he asked again.
“So?”
“Yes?”
“Noah won’t be able to accompany you, so what will you do?”
Lumiere was persistent. It seemed like he would keep asking until he got an answer. However.
“Dana.”
Before she could answer, Lumiere let out a deep sigh and shook his head.
“Can I be honest?”
“About what?”
“I don’t want you to become a Priest of Diana’s religion.”
“What?”
“I’m sorry for constantly interfering with your decisions. I’m not usually someone who meddles like this, you know?”
Lumiere furrowed his brow as if he couldn’t understand himself.
“But I keep worrying about it.”
“…”
“I guess it’s because you’re my Younger Sister.”
Lumiere grabbed Dana’s shoulders with a serious face.
“Diana’s religion isn’t the righteous religious order you think it is.”
I know.
It’s a disgusting, nauseating religion.
However, Dana deliberately put on an innocent expression. Lumiere was determined to stop her.
So he’ll tell me reasons worthy of persuading me.
Dana wanted to know everything about Diana’s religion. Even everything that Lumiere knew…
“Why?”
So Dana asked with innocent, naive eyes, pretending to know nothing.
“They’re all good People. Everyone is kind. Plus, I heard there’s something called Holy Water, and drinking it makes your body healthy.”
If he knows something about Holy Water, he’ll burst and tell me.
“It’s not what you think.”
Yes, just like right now.
Lumiere paused for a moment and looked around. After confirming no one was there.
“Look at this, Dana.”
He rolled up his sleeve.
And took out a Dagger from his waist.
“…!”
He slashed his forearm in one stroke!
“What are you doing!”
She cried out in a suppressed voice, but Lumiere smiled and held out his forearm.
“Don’t be surprised and look carefully.”
His wound began to heal like a lie. The bleeding stopped, and the wound closed. As Dana well knew, his Recovery Ability was monstrous.
And Lumiere was now revealing this to his Younger Sister.
“Monstrous, right? It’s Diana’s religion’s handiwork.”
Dana tensed up. A story that had never once come from Lumiere’s mouth was about to emerge.
“That Holy Water you said was so good. They mixed that Holy Water with some Shamanism and injected it into my body.”
“…”
“It’s not just me. All the Windsor Family Men went through that.”
“…”
“As you know, I was once a Windsor too. To get to this point, you have to go through an extremely painful process.”
“A painful process?”
“Yes. You saw how Noah suffered. That’s the aftereffect of this experiment. With that level of high fever, most people can’t endure it and die.”
“….”
“I was lucky. Really quite lucky.”
Lumiere gently stroked her back, as if hoping Dana wouldn’t be shocked.
Though it was a touch that gave an enchanting feeling, Dana blocked out that sensation like steel.
She had no intention of being swayed by emotions from the previous timeline anymore.
She simply said coldly.
“I heard that the Family Heads of the Windsor Family have traditionally inherited the position of Diana Cult Leader for generations. But why on earth would the same Windsor conduct such dangerous experiments on people?”
“Generally, Windsor Family bloodline members are safe from this experiment.”
There was a slight hint of sarcasm in Lumiere’s voice.
“I only inherited the surname, not the bloodline, so it was left to chance.”
“…That’s too much. I’m disappointed that Karl didn’t stop it.”
“My Adoptive Father tried not to send me.”
“What?”
“However, my biological Grandfather—Rodrigo Windsor—forcibly took me to the Sanctuary.”
Rodrigo. It was a name she had heard before.
Viego and Noah’s Grandfather. Karl’s biological father.
And the man who adopted Ignis. The man who persistently refused Ignis’s request for disownment and was obsessed with Ignis.
‘What kind of human being was Rodrigo Windsor?’
What kind of person was he to only choose such strange and grotesque acts?
“That’s about all I know regarding the experiment. But.”
Lumiere said firmly.
“The Diana Church is definitely conducting even more horrific experiments.”
“….”
“Even so, are you still unchanged in your intention to become a Diana Church Priest?”
Yes. Unchanged. She would become a Diana Church Priest and dig up all kinds of information.
In other words, she had to refuse Lumiere’s persuasion.
It wouldn’t be difficult. Just as she was about to open her mouth and state her decision.
“Dana.”
As if sensing it, Lumiere reached out first.
And he pulled her into an embrace, grasping her shoulders.
“I have to return to the Continent soon.”
Her cheek touched his warm and solid chest.
Dana rather closed her eyes. To block out this cozy sensation washing over her now.
“I think I’d feel too uncomfortable leaving you behind. So come with me. Dana.”
Whispering so, Lumiere lowered his head and lightly kissed her forehead. Upon contact, a strange thrill washed over her and Dana bit the inside of her mouth.
It was a very light and gentle embrace of sibling affection. A kiss of affection.
“Come with me and let’s live together.”
Lumiere’s long fingers swept her hair behind her ear. The body temperature of his fingers touching her ear tip was stimulating.
“I’ll make you happy.”
Ah, this conversation.
He had said this in the previous life too.
“I’ll make you happy.”
Deeply, long, to the point of stealing away all my lips and tongue and breath, kissing so thick and intense while saying those words. Inside me, after pouring out all of his hot passion.
