Chapter 113

First, I brought Shamal into my room.

Shamal sat on a chair at the table placed in one corner of my room, waiting with sparkling eyes for me to speak.

“Um, I think I should introduce this person first.”

I instructed a maid to call Louis Sauver. Not long after, Louis Sauver burst through my door and entered.

“What’s the matter, Rene? Huh? Shamal?”

“A bandit…? Or a thief…?”

Hearing Shamal quietly mutter, I shook my head no.

“This person is Gye Deok-ho, my friend. And he’s also the one who was inside Beatrice’s body until now.”

“He was inside Beatrice?”

Shamal’s eyes widened as he looked at Louis Sauver.

I nodded and explained everything about what had happened.

“I couldn’t reveal it until now due to circumstances. I’m really sorry.”

When I bowed my head in apology, Shamal looked back and forth between me and Louis Sauver with awkward eyes.

“So, you mean Beatrice wasn’t really Beatrice?”

“That’s how it was until now. But now Louis Sauver has come out and we’ve restored Beatrice’s soul that was captured by the Black Mage back to normal, so she’s the real Beatrice.”

At my words, Shamal seemed lost in thought for a moment, then nodded as if he understood.

“So that’s why I felt something was strange about Beatrice.”

“That’s right.”

Shamal’s intuition was accurate.

Louis Sauver sat next to me and looked at Shamal with a toothy grin.

“It’s been a while.”

“…Yeah, it’s been a while.”

Fortunately, Shamal didn’t seem to harbor any particular ill feelings toward Louis Sauver.

“But how did you get inside Beatrice’s body? Was that also the Black Mage’s doing?”

“Yes, the Black Mage summoned Louis Sauver’s soul to destroy this world.”

Suddenly Shamal’s expression darkened.

“Rene, I heard that you defeated the Black Mage.”

Come to think of it, Shamal hadn’t appeared when I confronted Iban.

“I was unconscious from the side effects of magic at that time, so I didn’t even know you had defeated the Black Mage. I should have helped you, I’m sorry…”

“No, it’s fine. But why did you faint?”

“To find out why Beatrice had become strange… I looked into it in every way possible by myself, but I couldn’t find any particular reason. Then I learned there was magic related to other worlds and tried to implement it, but I failed and ended up fainting.”

Ah, so that’s what happened.

From Shamal’s perspective, the girl he liked had suddenly changed, and I, who seemed to know something, had kept my mouth shut, so it must have been quite a shock in many ways.

That’s why he would have resorted to dangerous magic that connects to other worlds.

Is it fortunate that he failed in the end?

“So Beatrice is okay now?”

Shamal looked at me and asked.

The Black Mage was gone, and we had restored the real Beatrice’s soul, so Beatrice would probably be fine.

Though she’d be a bit busy for a while cleaning up the mess Louis Sauver had made.

“Yes, she’ll be fine.”

When I nodded, Shamal let out a sigh of relief.

“Thank goodness…”

Watching Shamal’s relief, I wondered if Beatrice would end up with Shamal in a situation where one male lead was dead and another had left.

There was a Shamal route in the IF side stories, but in the original work, Beatrice didn’t particularly like Shamal, who was her stalker.

Maybe she’d have an arranged marriage like other noble ladies.

Or fall in love with another man.

Just as I was lost in thought, a maid politely knocked on the door.

“Miss, Duke Wischurs has come to see you.”

The Duke? Why all of a sudden?

Come to think of it, since that day I’d been busy worrying about Kaisis’s egg and Louis Sauver who had regained his original body, so I hadn’t paid attention to the Duke.

When I told her to let him in, the maid politely opened the door.

“Ah, Lea Sauver.”

The Duke was holding a bouquet of flowers.

“That person is…”

Then he saw Louis Sauver and his expression immediately hardened.

He even placed his hand that wasn’t holding the bouquet on his sword hilt as if he might draw his sword at any moment.

“A bandit?”

Why does everyone think Louis Sauver is a bandit? Though I did think he looked like a bandit at first…

When I quickly shook my head, the Duke removed his hand from his sword hilt.

“Hey, Duke. It’s been a while.”

“It’s been a while…?”

When Louis Sauver waved at the Duke, the Duke looked confused.

I seated the Duke and gave him a rough explanation. That Louis Sauver was the person who had been inside Beatrice’s body until now.

Then the Duke finally seemed to understand Louis Sauver’s greeting of “it’s been a while.”

“So you’re saying this person was inside Beatrice Rockwood’s body?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Amazing. To think black magic could accomplish such a thing.”

The Duke stared at Louis Sauver for a while, then made an “ah” sound and held out the bouquet he had brought to me.

“Here, this is a gift.”

“Ah, thank you.”

Now that the real Beatrice had returned, there was a high probability that the Duke’s affection would turn back to Beatrice.

After all, what the Duke originally liked was the ‘real’ Beatrice.

And I’m just an extra character.

“By the way, Your Highness.”

“Yes, please speak, Lea Sauver.”

“Beatrice’s strangeness was because of Louis Sauver, and now the real Beatrice has returned. How about Your Highness meeting with Beatrice to check on her…”

The Duke narrowed his eyes at my words. He seemed to have caught on to the intention behind my suggestion to meet Beatrice.

“I’m no longer interested in Beatrice Rockwood. I’ll visit to check on her, but if you have other intentions, you’d better give up.”

“What? But what Your Highness liked was surely…”

At my words, the Duke’s expression suddenly darkened.

“Did you think so lightly of my feelings?”

“What?”

“My feelings for Lea Sauver are not that light. Even if Beatrice Rockwood has returned to how she was before, what I love is Lea Sauver.”

Just as I was rolling my eyes in confusion.

Whiiiiik-.

I heard a whistling sound and turned my head to see Louis Sauver looking at the Duke and me with a ‘look at this guy’ expression.

“Uh… So Your Highness no longer likes Beatrice?”

Shamal, who had been quietly watching the situation, asked.

The Duke looked at Shamal and nodded.

Since Shamal was Beatrice’s stalker, he would have known that the Duke had romantic feelings for Beatrice.

Shamal’s face brightened upon hearing the Duke’s answer.

Shamal seemed to harbor hope that he and Beatrice could be together.

Of course, since the plot had already deviated far from the original, there was a high probability that he wouldn’t end up with Shamal either.

Shamal seemed to think his rivals had decreased, as he fidgeted with his fingers with a shy face.

If Shamal were to confess to Beatrice, I would help him, but now that the real Beatrice had returned, even I couldn’t guarantee what Beatrice’s reaction would be.

“Th-then I’ll be going now.”

I saw Shamal off and looked around at the people remaining in my room.

“By the way, I don’t see Lea Sauver’s escort knight.”

“Ah, Kaisis is…”

I clenched the bouquet tightly and then released it as I spoke.

“He’s dead.”

“What?”

“To save me…”

For a moment, bewilderment flashed in the Duke’s eyes.

It seemed he hadn’t thought that Kaisis could possibly be dead.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought this up…”

“No, it’s fine. Kaisis hasn’t completely left my side after all.”

“He hasn’t completely left? What do you mean by that?”

“That’s Kaisis’s egg.”

When I pointed to Kaisis’s egg placed on the bed, the Duke shifted his gaze.

“Kaisis will soon awaken from that egg. So I’m fine.”

As I smiled and went to the bed to embrace the egg, the Duke looked at me with a strange expression.

“Once that knight awakens from the egg again, I suppose I won’t have a chance.”

The Duke muttered something, but I couldn’t hear it clearly.

“What?”

When I asked back, the Duke said it was nothing and extended his hand to me.

“Could you spare me some time, Lea Sauver?”

“Just for a moment.”

I entrusted Kaisis’s egg to Louis Sauver and came down to the garden with the Duke.

The Duke walked through the garden with me, then soon turned to face me with a resolute expression as if he had made up his mind about something.
