Chapter 241

 

 

 

 

* * *

 

“Wake up.”

Deep dawn.

“Wake up.”

A quiet voice echoes.

“Wake up.”

I don’t want to wake up.

Your voice is like moonlight, like a melody of the night, so beautiful…

“Wake up, Dana.”

The moment she thought something touched her cheek.

Dana’s eyes snapped open.

A man was leaning against the bed, looking down at her. In the darkness, palely gleaming platinum hair…

“Viego?”

Then the man’s brow furrowed slightly.

“I told you to wait without sleeping.”

“Sorry. I didn’t realize…”

Before she could finish speaking, Viego tossed something onto the bed.

“Change into these.”

A shirt and pants. Women’s activity wear.

Dana thought in a half-asleep state.

Why is he suddenly giving me clothes?

Though puzzled, Dana obediently followed his words. The moment she grabbed the ribbon on the front of her chemise to take it off.

Viego silently turned around.

“It’s okay if you look…”

When she mumbled that sleepily, Viego, showing his back, answered irritably.

“Don’t say pathetic things.”

Ah.

Right.

‘I must have mistaken him for Demian in my sleepy state.’

But it really would be fine if he looked.

Thinking drowsily, Dana took off her nightgown. Then she put on the shirt and pants, even fastening the belt.

‘I’m done.’

When she raised her head to say that, Dana noticed that Viego was standing quite far away.

Just moments ago he had been right beside her, but now he was standing with his back turned near the wall.

‘Why is he acting like that?’

Is there something on the wall? Dana called to him.

“Viego. I’ve finished changing.”

Then Viego turned around and approached her. His face was like ice.

“Get ready to leave.”

“Huh?”

“I’m taking you out of here.”

“Leave? Where to?”

“Outside the Sanctuary.”

“…”

Outside the Sanctuary?

Entry and exit from the Sanctuary is impossible without Rodrigo’s permission, isn’t it?

“Did Rodrigo say it was okay?”

“No.”

Answering roughly, Viego checked his pocket watch.

“Let’s go. There’s no time.”

“…”

Dana didn’t answer.

Leave the Sanctuary without permission?

This meant going against the master of the Sanctuary. Dana could hardly believe it.

‘Why?’

Viego follows Rodrigo very well.

Why would he suddenly try to disobey him?

“Viego, is something wrong? I’ll counsel you, so tell me.”

“Don’t say presumptuous things. What right do you have to counsel me?”

“Well, I’m your…”

“Just say you understand and follow me.”

Viego cut off her goodwill sharply, as if displeased.

“That’s what you’re good at, isn’t it.”

“…”

Of course that was true.

Dana looked at him with a troubled expression. Since Dana didn’t know how to refuse, she didn’t want to refuse whatever Viego wanted. However.

 

“Don’t leave this Sanctuary without my permission.”

 

Rodrigo’s earnest request came to mind…

For Dana, always and at all times, Rodrigo’s words were first priority.

Did he notice her inner conflict? Viego raised the corner of his mouth.

“Don’t want to?”

“Sorry. I can do anything else, but this…”

“Grandfather’s words are the priority, is that it.”

“…”

An uncomfortable silence flowed.

Viego, who had been looking quite displeased, slowly sat on the edge of the bed. Then he nodded his head downward.

“Do it.”

“Huh?”

“You said you’d do anything else.”

He gestured toward his black military boots.

“There’s dust on the boots.”

“Okay.”

“Clean them.”

“Okay.”

“With your mouth.”

“Okay.”

There was nothing to think about.

She immediately knelt in front of him. The moment she slowly lowered her face and stuck out her tongue.

An irritated breath scattered from above her head.

And just before her tongue could touch, the boot slid aside. At the same time, a very strong force grabbed her chin. Pulled her upward.

Green eyes met hers. Burning with anger…

“This kind of bullshit.”

Ah.

Is he angry?

“…Don’t.”

But soon he seemed to compose his emotions and spoke coldly.

“No matter who orders you, don’t do it.”

“….”

“Don’t do it, and get angry instead.”

Why should I get angry?

I’m willing to do it. I couldn’t understand why he was displeased.

It must be because he doesn’t go outside the Sanctuary.

“Are you angry?”

Fortunately, Dana knew how to appease an angry man.

She carefully placed her hand on Viego’s thigh. In that instant, she felt the muscles beneath her hand tense up with surprising speed. She stroked gently, soothingly.

“Can I make you feel better?”

“….”

Viego’s eyes looked helpless. After a moment of silence, he spoke in an extremely low voice.

“No.”

“Ah, okay.”

So that’s not allowed.

When she withdrew her hand, Viego covered his face with both hands. He muttered while dry-washing his face.

“You do such ridiculous things.”

As if forcibly suppressing his surging emotions, his voice broke off.

“So why can’t you do something as simple as going outside the Sanctuary?”

“I can’t disobey Lord Rodrigo’s request. First, I need Lord Rodrigo’s permission….”

The next moment, Viego reached out as if he didn’t want to hear any more. His large hand covered her mouth.

“Then let’s do it this way.”

And meeting her gaze, he spoke quietly.

“I’ll forcibly take you with me.”

What?

She turned her head in confusion, but his palm didn’t leave her mouth.

‘Did he just cover my mouth?’

To keep me from screaming?

Suddenly, Rodrigo’s advice flashed through her mind.

 

“If someone tries to take you away, resist strongly. You must never obediently follow such words!”

 

Dana tried to do just that.

No! The moment she tried to scream.

“―!”

Something slipped into her mouth.

Viego had made her bite down on a handkerchief as if he had anticipated this.

‘What is he doing?’

She glared at him in disbelief, but Viego, having made his decision, hesitated no longer. He grabbed her shoulders, pushed her back, laid her down on the ground, and climbed on top.

In that moment, Dana’s breath caught.

‘You’re too big.’

Viego’s physique, dominating her vision, overwhelmed her.

He was larger than she had thought, his massive shadow completely swallowing her up. Moreover, the overwhelming pressure from his military uniform was considerable, leaving Dana completely frozen.

And she instinctively knew.

Resistance was meaningless. Even trying would be useless….

 

“If someone tries to take you away, you must resist to the end!”

 

Dana kicked at his shoulder.

Thud!

However, rather than being pushed back, Viego came down even closer. And as if annoyed, he grabbed her ankle. Her ankle was caught in one grip.

“Don’t.”

You don’t!

She tried to kick with her other foot, but before she could, Viego pressed down on her thigh with his knee.

‘It hurts!’

When she frowned, she felt Viego slightly release the pressure from his knee. Even so, she still couldn’t move.

“Don’t struggle. You’ll get hurt.”

And yet he gave this advice sincerely.

Dana couldn’t believe it.

That the genteel Viego would act like such a ruffian!

‘Please don’t do this….’

With such eyes, with tears welling up, she looked up at him.

“….”

Viego didn’t take his gaze off her crying face.

For a moment he seemed captivated, but in reality, he was binding her ankles together. Dutifully and emotionlessly.

‘He brought rope….’

Dana whimpered. Viego came here intending to kidnap me. To take me outside the Sanctuary.

That absolutely cannot happen.

Lord Rodrigo said that going outside the Sanctuary without permission is absolutely forbidden….

Her twisted mind, something implanted in her head, sounded an alarm. The anxiety from it made tears stream down her face.

“Don’t cry.”

At that moment, Viego’s hand covered her eyes.

She could feel the wet tears soaking into his palm.

Somehow, it felt as if his thumb had wiped away her tears. As if he were comforting something so very fragile….

“Just go to sleep.”

But it must have been her imagination.

The next moment, his fingers pressed firmly against her temples.

“When you wake up, it will all be over.”

Darkness came.

 

* * *

 

Viego put the unconscious Dana into a travel bag.

It was a custom bag made for today, designed specifically for her.

Throughout the journey back with her in the travel bag, no one suspected him.

“Viego Windsor.”

Even when he encountered his father Demian along the way.

“You willingly volunteered for the Diana Church’s biological experiments?”

Even Demian couldn’t suspect him.

“Indeed, Windsor blood cannot be deceived. You’re out of your mind. Volunteering for biological experiments, Viego, what on earth are you….”

“Are you just realizing that now?”

“I didn’t know you were still doing such things!”

Well, it is crazy.

Viego was the Windsor Family’s first test subject.

For the past 10 years, he had consistently offered himself as an experimental rat.

Thanks to this, not only Rodrigo and the Order Priests, but even the Barbarian Radicals came to deeply trust Viego.

“Did you covet the successor position of the Diana Church that much? To willingly become the Order’s dog….”

“Isn’t Father the same?”

“What?”

“The incident from 10 years ago. I know about it too.”

“….”

“You prevented Dana’s escape to curry favor with the Order, didn’t you?”

At that moment, Demian’s eyes sharpened.

“What do you think you know to say such things?”

“What don’t I know?”

“I was… in love. Unlike you, who’s blinded by power.”

Love?

Love….

For a moment, he almost laughed.

So your love involves scrambling a perfectly fine woman’s head to make her into a plaything.

That accusation reached his lips but he barely swallowed it. Instead, he said something else.

“Please give my regards to my birth mother.”

With those words, Viego walked away steadily. He knew Demian’s gaze followed him, but it contained only anger and contempt.

There was no suspicion in that gaze.

On the path to the port. No one suspected or stopped him.

Not the Holy Knights, not the Priests, not anyone….

“Young Duke. Are you leaving already?”

“Yes.”

10 years ago. After the arson incident caused by Karl Windsor, the Sanctuary’s ships were managed under strict security.

No matter who they were, everyone had to undergo thorough luggage inspection before sailing, but.

“Please wait a moment. We’ll prepare immediately!”

Viego was an exception.

It was only natural.

Viego was the officially recognized next Diana Cult Leader, and the person who would become the master of this land.

“Ready! Please board.”

Viego nodded and boarded the ship.

Each step he took was so easy that he almost let out a hollow laugh.

Easy.

Really, it was too easy.

To take these simple steps, he had ground up over 10 years of his life.

For today.

For this very moment.

For this moment of rescuing Dana from the Sanctuary.
