Chapter 200

“That’s troublesome. I’d like us to stop talking about this.”

“….”

“I’m sorry.”

At his firm refusal, Dana felt hurt.

Of all people. Being rejected by Karl was particularly heartbreaking for some reason….

As her eyes reddened, Karl’s complexion quickly turned pale.

“Don’t cry. Okay?”

“Why do you keep saying no without any explanation?”

“You know why. It’s because I’m worried about you.”

“Stop saying that. In the end, you’re just rejecting me with the excuse that you’re worried.”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

Even while trying to soothe her, the corners of Karl’s lips twitched.

Dana noticed.

Karl found her adorable.

His face showed he couldn’t stand how cute she was when she wheedled and threw tantrums.

That made her extremely annoyed and angry.

‘How long is this man going to treat me like a child?’

It would be easier if he saw me as a woman instead.

If he harbored romantic desire for her, she could easily control him.

Dana rather wished Karl would feel that way.

Out of curiosity, Dana climbed onto his thighs. Then she pressed her upper body against his chest and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Though it didn’t show outwardly due to her thick clothes, she wasn’t wearing underwear today. Being completely pressed against him, he would surely feel everything from the texture to the shape.

“Why are you suddenly doing this?”

However, Karl only stroked her hair with a gentle voice. Just letting out a soft laugh.

Clear eyes without a trace of ulterior motive. There was no sign of sexual tension at all.

Dana hid her irritation and pleaded.

“Besides, Uncle will die if things continue like this. That’s why you want to go to the Frozen Lake so badly, isn’t it?”

“Dana doesn’t need to worry about such things.”

“How can I not worry? Or are you planning to go to the Frozen Lake with another plan to kill me?”

“How could I kill the cutest Dana in the whole world? I can’t do it.”

He was brushing it off playfully like this, but well.

That was a curious matter for her too.

This person makes plans to kill me just fine, but always fails.

His affection for her was so great that it ruined his plans.

But someday he might succeed.

When he no longer finds her adorable.

At least not now.

Even now his face showed he was itching to nibble on her. Like someone facing a very cute cat or puppy.

“You can do it.”

“Hm?”

“You want to kiss me, don’t you?”

“What?”

The next moment Karl’s face turned bright red.

“Did I, did I say it out loud? Did I say it? Did I end up saying it?”

“….”

What a foolish man.

“You can do it. In exchange, let me purify you, Uncle.”

“Such, such a frightening proposal….”

Even while stammering, Karl couldn’t hold back anymore and kissed her forehead and cheeks with little pecks. Very light kisses, like showering affection on a beloved baby.

And, though she had already expected it.

As expected, he didn’t come down lower.

‘Why won’t he kiss my lips?’

If he really only finds me cute, couldn’t he kiss my lips too?

Dana lifted her face. So his lips would naturally brush against hers. But like a ghost, Karl pulled back just before that moment.

“One week.”

Then he lifted her body up and set her down in the seat beside him. Gently arranging her disheveled hair, he said tenderly.

“Then let’s try it for just one more week and then decide.”

“There’s no need for that….”

“Your mind might change, Dana.”

Karl pinched her soft cheek and kneaded it roughly.

“Try purifying me for exactly one week, and if it’s too hard, then stop. If you can do more, continue purifying me.”

“….”

“When that time comes, I’ll lend you the Sacred Relic as you wish. But it must only be used to revive Ignis. I’ll go with you to confirm it myself.”

Though she was dissatisfied with the delay, it wasn’t a bad proposal. Dana nodded.

“Fine. I’ll try purifying for one week and then decide.”

“Good. Do that.”

He stroked her head. As if praising her courage. Like praising a child….

At that moment Dana realized with intuition.

Throughout the entire conversation, Karl hadn’t lied.

But he hadn’t told the truth either.

* * *

After Karl left, Dana immediately tried to go to the Holy Mother Chapel, but.

“The Cult Leader has commanded me to deliver this.”

Nettie came to visit.

Viego had sent her some documents.

‘This is a contract….’

Dana sat back down and checked the documents. They were papers organizing the matters that had been verbally agreed upon between her and Viego.

Just as he had granted her demands, she too had to grant his demands. And Viego was someone who documented and recorded everything.

‘Well, it’s good for both of us to have a contract prepared in advance.’

Dana examined the documents. The first clause contained the most important matter regarding the child.

‘Bear an heir to continue the Windsor Family.’

Well. How would this turn out? She had said in anger that she would bear Viego’s child, but that felt very strange.

‘Viego seems to be deliberately coming on strong too.’

Viego was not simple. He was someone who shouldn’t be judged by appearances alone.

The probability that he would actually make a child with her was low. That’s what Dana thought.

Perhaps he hoped she would get scared and shrink back, preparing another method instead.

Considering various possibilities, Dana moved her gaze to the next clause.

‘Skip the wedding ceremony and only file the marriage registration.’

Dana snorted. Good. A cumbersome wedding ceremony would only be bothersome anyway.

‘Purify the Corrupted Land that has appeared on the continent.’

Dana marked this part with an asterisk.

Purification. This was the reason she existed in this world, and the reason they had created her.

Therefore, she couldn’t do it for free. She intended to demand something each time she purified.

‘…I’ll definitely have to return to the Empire soon.’

This time, returning as Danaina Roland.

Danae Windsor and Danaina Roland are identical in everything except eye color. Everyone will know she has some connection to Danae Windsor.

If someone is perceptive enough, they might even realize she is Danae Windsor.

When this issue was brought up, Viego was surprisingly calm.

“What does it matter? No one would dare say anything in front of me.”

Dana was impressed by his arrogance and shamelessness. Indeed, who would dare ask Viego if he had married his younger sister?

Besides, that wasn’t a problem for Dana either.

The problem was.

‘Lyos.’

Lyos, who had become Emperor of the Empire.

She wouldn’t be able to avoid reuniting with Lyos.

The thought of him made Dana’s skin crawl.

When he sees me, when we meet again,

Lyos would surely see through her identity. Would he really leave her alone?

‘He kidnapped me when I was trying to marry Lumiere too.’

But back then she had no memories and was completely defenseless.

Now it’s different. She won’t be caught off guard like before. Dana knew a way to stop Lyos.

‘Justio.’

Lyos’s uncle.

The former Emperor and current Pope of the Ramun Church.

He was like Lyos’s natural enemy. So if it’s that man….

Just then, bang! The door opened.

“What are you doing?”

It was Noah. He stormed in like a cold wind and immediately demanded.

“I heard something very strange.”

His golden hair was disheveled. As if he had rushed here, he panted heavily and asked fiercely.

“I heard you promised to marry Elder Brother. Is it true?”

Ah….

Dana sighed.

Somehow it had ended up that way. Since comfort or apologies seemed meaningless, Dana calmly nodded.

“Yes. That’s what happened.”

Bang! Noah immediately punched the wall with his fist.

“Are you insane?”

His fist trembled as it pierced the cracked wall. Noah shouted savagely.

“After doing that with me last night, you’re going to become my sister-in-law?”
