Chapter 94

Ignis’s deliberately crafted vile laughter echoed loudly through the corridor. It gradually faded away and disappeared.

Dana held back a sigh.

She had deliberately provoked him to lose his reason.

But she never expected it would go that far.

To think he would try to kidnap her without caring whether bullets were lodged in his body or not…

“…indeed.”

Just then, Viego muttered something.

“Brother? What did you just say?”

After surveying the room once, Viego finally met her gaze.

“There’s a nauseating smell permeating the air.”

“…”

A nauseating smell.

‘The smell of blood?’

Indeed, there was quite a bit of blood that Ignis had spilled.

Four bullets had accurately penetrated his body. But…

No.

He wasn’t talking about the smell of blood.

“You surely don’t believe what he said, do you.”

Then Viego answered as if it were ridiculous.

“Then I suppose this would be the scent of flowers?”

It was very embarrassing, but being misunderstood was out of the question. Dana spoke firmly.

“That person did it by himself. In front of me…”

“By himself, in front of you?”

“Yes.”

It wasn’t something I did. It was a perverted act that Ignis did. So Dana answered without hesitation.

“That’s all there was to it. He just kept staring at me. He didn’t lay a single finger on me.”

Witnessing the beginning, climax, and end of one man’s pleasure was quite a bewildering experience.

Fortunately, Ignis had quite a fine appearance, so it was somewhat, somewhat less revolting.

“…Wash up and come to my room.”

Whether he believed it or not.

Viego said while retrieving his cane from the wall.

“That disgusting smell has permeated your body.”

“…”

Watching his retreating figure as he walked ahead with heavy steps, Dana was certain.

That Viego Windsor was angry.

* * *

A short while later, Dana arrived at Viego’s room.

“Explain.”

He was drinking whiskey.

“Explain everything from beginning to end so that I can understand.”

So Dana began her explanation.

“I found Ignis suspicious during the carriage attack.”

She had discovered the source of the bullets used.

It was Count Cedric, Lyos’s close friend. Although it had been laundered through various identities in between, she was able to track it down by following the trail meticulously.

That was suspicious.

“Someone was deliberately leading me to suspect Lyos.”

“Leading?”

“Yes. I found out too easily.”

Although she had used an enormous amount of bribe money to discover that route.

That was all it took. Something that could be easily discovered just by feeding money.

“If it had really been Lyos, he would have used bullets that had no connection to him whatsoever. He wouldn’t have used bullets whose route could be easily traced with money.”

Someone had deliberately scattered breadcrumbs for her to discover Lyos.

They had set up this stage for her to suspect Lyos.

Who would do such a thing. While she was pondering this.

At that very moment, there happened to be someone nearby constantly fanning the flames of suspicion.

So that suspicion toward Lyos would spread like fire to those around him. To suspect Windsor, even her own family house. To suspect even family. To trust no one.

As if trying to make her want to abandon everything and leave.

Ignis de Windsor— that person.

“He kept saying things to me that encouraged distrust of the Windsor Family. Not only that, but during the carriage attack, he actually wasn’t hit by a single shot.”

Rather, he was only injured when saving her, only when he was shielding her.

She had tested him with half-formed suspicions, and sure enough.

Sure enough, it was his doing.

“So.”

After hearing Dana’s story, Viego tilted his head.

“So, why were you doing that in that room?”

“Well, because I had to deal with the scripture.”

“The reason you didn’t immediately retrieve it even after discovering the scripture’s location.”

“Stealing the scripture right away would be meaningless. They could just make another fake scripture.”

Dana explained calmly.

“So, I wanted to show them that bringing another fake would be useless. If they knew there was a way to prove it was fake, they wouldn’t try such a thing again.”

Of course, there was a reason why Ignis had confidently presented the fake scripture as if it were real.

“That scripture couldn’t be erased by ordinary methods. They must have used some special technique.”

“So?”

“If he had requested the Papal Court to verify that scripture, he could have made it appear as if the scripture’s text was written with sacred blood.”

That meant it could have been recognized as a real scripture.

If that had happened, the Windsor Family would have been annihilated.

“So I used knowledge from where I originally lived to erase it.”

It wasn’t particularly difficult. She could erase ink from paper by rubbing it with a paste made from mixing baking soda with water.

So if it hadn’t been for her, the Windsor Family would have been swept away by that scripture and the family’s survival would have been shaken.

‘But why does he have that expression?’

Irritation slowly began to rise.

After she had solved everything, instead of being pleased.

“…”

He was giving her such a cold reception.

So Dana finally said this as well.

“…I deliberately made Ignis cause a disturbance. That was the only way to hand that bastard over to the court and put him in prison, wasn’t it?”

She had deliberately provoked Ignis to anger him.

So that he would harm her or cause a disturbance.

To hand him over to the court on those charges.

“We could hand him over to the court for the crime of forging scripture, but… you have no intention of doing that, do you, Brother.”

Viego would bury this matter.

Anything related to the scripture, completely, so that not a single word would come out.

It was a story that would bring no benefit to Windsor.

If that happens, the justification for handing Ignis over to the Court would disappear.

“But I thought that man had to be sent to the Court somehow. Even if not for the crime of fabricating the fake Scripture, then for some other crime.”

She hadn’t planned to say this much, but Viego’s face looked so displeased that she had no choice.

“There must be someone behind Ignis. And that person behind him will definitely break Ignis out of prison. So if we watch carefully and find out which faction breaks Ignis out.”

“….”

“We might be able to uncover the identity of Ignis’s backing, the group that fabricated the fake Scripture.”

Dana couldn’t understand Viego.

With this, they had proven the Scripture was fake and could even catch whoever was behind Ignis who orchestrated this whole thing, yet he still made that expression?

‘In every way, this only helps the Windsor Family, doesn’t it?’

“So….”

After a long while, Viego opened his mouth.

“You used that body?”

“What?”

“And you even went so far as to stimulate Ignis’s lust to achieve your goal.”

Cold contempt flashed through Viego’s green eyes.

“You used the desires of a man who wanted your body.”

He twisted his lips crookedly.

“Don’t you think that’s vulgar?”

Dana clenched both hands tightly.

‘It’s okay.’

She was almost there.

Think of the Deputy Head’s Ring, remember the Sacred Relic. Soon she would part with that man forever.

So she just had to endure it….

“Even if that were true, would my vulgarity be a problem?”

Ah, but why was she getting so angry?

“Even if I did something vulgar as you say, so what? In the end, didn’t things turn out exactly as you wanted?”

What an irritating man.

Treating people like tools.

Only now treating her like a human being because she was helpful to the family.

‘Does he want me to play the role of a competent aide, a saint, and now even a virtuous younger sister?’

Dana found herself approaching his desk without realizing it.

Her irritation had exceeded its limit.

“Because of me, the Scripture was proven fake, the fraud was driven out, and we can even find out who’s behind the fraud.”

She pressed her bottom down and perched on Viego’s desk.

At that moment, Viego was looking straight ahead. Not at her.

Looking at his platinum hair swept back without a single strand out of place, Dana spoke softly.

“How could I have done any better than this?”

She picked up the whiskey bottle.

She poured it into the empty glass Viego was holding with a splash.

“I’ve done everything you’ve asked me to do well so far. Isn’t this excellent?”

Then she snatched the glass from his hand and downed it in one gulp. Gulp gulp, the hot liquid burned down her throat.

Then, as if astounded, Viego frowned and looked up at her.

Dana looked down at those eyes and smiled brightly. She placed the empty glass back in his grasp.

“So please praise me, brother. If you keep scolding me like this, I get hurt too.”

“That’s Windsor’s body.”

“Right now it’s my body too. That’s why I always treat it preciously.”

“You can say that even after what happened today?”

“It’s not my fault, is it? That bastard who couldn’t control his own lust and used me as material to comfort himself is just worse than a beast.”

The moment her harsh words ended, Viego’s jaw hardened. It must have been unexpected, since it wasn’t like Dana who always used gentle language.

But Dana didn’t stop and continued.

“The vulgar one isn’t me, but the man who enjoyed secret masturbation with me as his target… Isn’t that right?”
