Chapter 282
* * *
And the vision ended.
“Sob.”
Tears poured out.
Danaina Roland, who had escaped from the vision, collapsed in the maze garden and wailed. She couldn’t regain her composure from the piercing fear, terror, and sadness that penetrated every strand of her hair.
“Sob, sob, sob.”
It felt like her heart was being crushed.
Damn it.
This damn vision. This damn shamanism.
Was this a vision that showed memories of the most terrifyingly frightening moments I had experienced so far?
If so, it really succeeded perfectly.
Even now, I’m so scared that my hands are trembling like this.
Like this, like this, like this…
But.
I couldn’t stay like this forever.
Because I have things I need to do.
‘Let’s get up.’
Wipe away the tears, calm down, get up. And move forward. Dana took a deep breath while wiping away the tears that had wet her face.
Then, she heard footsteps.
“Ah! There she is!”
It was the twins’ voices.
“Sister, she’s over there!”
“Should we go catch her first?”
Yes, I’m here! Dana wanted to shout to them.
Please hurry up and catch me! End this damn game of tag! I’m thoroughly soaked in fear just as you wanted!
‘Quickly take me to the altar and offer me as a sacrifice!’
So she deliberately hung her head low and waited. She planned to pretend she couldn’t regain her composure. Then they would think she had fainted and take her to the altar.
However.
“Oh my, she’s really here?”
An ominous feeling seemed to pierce down to her nape.
It was almost like instinct. Contrary to her resolve to stay still, Dana’s body automatically rolled to the side. At the same time, a very rough wind pressure grazed past her cheek.
‘What?’
Dana quickly raised her body.
Could this also be an illusion right now?
No, it’s not an illusion. This burning sensation on her cheek with a drop of blood trickling down.
‘This is real.’
Real blood.
That priest wearing the goat mask – had swung an axe down toward her neck!
‘Did they really try to kill me?’
Her heart turned cold.
Why? This time I’m the only sacrifice, so they shouldn’t kill me now, right? There are no other goat candidates?
The priest holding the axe tilted their head. They asked as if curious.
“How did you dodge that?”
Ah…
“You have better instincts than I thought. Danae.”
It was a voice she knew well.
When the priest threw off the goat mask, light blonde hair fluttered and swayed. It was Ingria.
She smiled coldly.
“Catch her, kids.”
“…!”
Then the twins quickly ran over and grabbed both her arms. What are they, hunting dogs!
Slap!
At that moment, a stinging sensation exploded on her cheek. Before she could even grasp the situation, another hit, and then another.
Ingria struck her cheek.
Slap, slap, slap!
How long had she been slapped on the cheek like that? Ingria, who had been continuously slapping her like a crazy woman, finally lowered her hand.
“Phew, even this doesn’t make me feel better.”
Then she roughly grabbed Dana’s white hair and twisted her face upward.
“It’s you, isn’t it?”
Crack, strength went into the grip holding her hair. Dana frowned.
This woman is really strong.
And her eyes have gone mad.
“You’re the one who told Lumiere to divorce me, aren’t you?”
When she didn’t answer, the twins beside her grabbed her arms and shook them.
“Answer quickly. Danae.”
“Your pretty face will get hurt. Quickly listen to what she says.”
“Won’t you answer, Danae?”
Ingria asked fiercely while gripping Dana’s hair even more roughly.
“What’s your relationship with Lumiere?”
“…”
“Did you think I wouldn’t know? How shameless and disgusting it was to see you two pretending not to be involved and having lovers’ quarrels in front of me!”
At those words, Dana answered for the first time.
“What on earth are you talking about?”
“Don’t try to play innocent, Danae. Since when have you had that kind of relationship with Lumiere?”
“It’s not like that.”
She might not know about other things, but she couldn’t stand insulting Lumiere. Absolutely not.
In this life, Lumiere knows her as his younger sister. So no matter what temptation she might use, he’s someone who only shows looks of contempt, a righteous person, a person of noble character!
He is-!
‘Ah, forget it.’
Dana suppressed her rising competitive spirit.
What’s the point of arguing with a woman who’s going to die soon anyway?
Don’t waste time on pointless arguments, let’s hurry and go find the sacred relic.
Dana, remembering her original purpose, began to cry again.
“Sob, sob, I was wrong. It’s all my fault, sob.”
“Tell me what you did wrong.”
“I seduced Brother Lumiere. It’s all because I’m immoral, so please don’t insult my brother.”
When she began to cry pitifully, only then did a smile form on Ingria’s lips.
“I knew it would be like this. These filthy bastards.”
“Sob, sob sob.”
“Lumiere, pretending to be noble is really funny. In the end, that blood couldn’t be hidden-.”
Before the words could finish.
Ingria saw a long arm stretch out like a snake from behind Danae. It immediately grabbed the twins’ necks firmly.
“…!”
The twins collapsed to the ground as if crumbling.
Ingria hurriedly reached for the axe, but all she could grasp was grass.
The axe was already in someone else’s hands.
In the hands of the man who had suddenly appeared and knocked out the twins.
The man wore a goat mask, but since each had their own markings, they could recognize each other.
“…Adma Rolland?”
Instead of answering, the man dropped the axe with a thud and walked steadily toward Ingria. He swung his hand and struck her across the cheek.
Smack!
From that single blow, Ingria’s body flew far and crashed deep into the bush wall. She immediately lost consciousness, or so it seemed, as she went limp without moving.
And the man approached her.
“Are you alright?”
He asked politely while removing his mask.
“…Demian.”
Demian carefully lifted her body into his arms. Dana stared up at him in a daze.
Why is this guy here.
“Let’s hide for now. There are people chasing from behind.”
Ah. Right. Adma Rolland.
This guy was also on the message on the wall, on the list of attendees.
It’s not strange that he’s here.
…But why didn’t he tell me in advance that he was coming here?
Demian ran quickly and pushed his body into a narrow maze wall crevice. And shortly after, the sound of rushing footsteps could be heard.
“What on earth happened? Princess Ingria is collapsed!”
“The twins too.”
“Could it be that Danae woman who did this?”
“No way. She looked like she didn’t have the strength to break a tree branch.”
“Then what is it. Did some traitor appear?”
Demian carefully covered her mouth. It seemed he was blocking her breathing sounds from scattering loudly.
After a while, the presence finally completely faded away.
They had safely passed by.
However….
“….”
Dana stared up at Demian quietly.
The hand covering her mouth remained as it was.
Why isn’t he removing it?
“From now on, listen carefully to what I say.”
Demian looked at her and whispered softly. It was the same respectful attitude he had always shown.
“Actually, there’s something I haven’t told you.”
However, Dana felt a familiar sense of unease in that tone. No, it was a familiar sense of intimidation.
“I came to Godom Island here under orders from my father, Rodrigo.”
“….”
“Father told me to bring you, Dana. He’s waiting for you on Eldiva Island right now. We also have one of our laboratories on Eldiva Island.”
At that moment, Dana realized where she had felt this intimidation before.
It was a sensation that had always been with her when she was Dana-Win-Il.
Always kind and affectionate, but always perfectly controlling and dominating her….
My husband’s intimidation.
“But well, I’d like to give you a choice.”
He continued speaking in that same gentle manner with the exact same face from those days.
“If you choose to come with me, you’ll be safe. You’ll be able to escape this island safely, and Father will also extend your lifespan sufficiently. And he promised to treat you with utmost care, like a queen of this world.”
Demian smiled while gently stroking the scratch on her cheek.
“But I’ll give you another option.”
“….”
“Leave with me.”
“….”
“What will you do, darling?”
My endlessly gentle tyrant….
