Chapter 61

After the maid who had changed my clothes left the room, Kaisis entered with the doctor.

The doctor examined my condition and said I was fine except for mild hypothermia, recommending that I keep my body warm.

Kaisis immediately brought a blanket from the bed and wrapped me up tightly.

“I think I inhaled some kind of drug, and I can’t put strength into my arms and legs.”

After hearing my story, the doctor said it seemed to be a paralytic drug and gave me an antidote in a glass bottle before leaving.

I went under the blanket while shivering, but no matter how much time passed, there was no sign of my body temperature returning.

Kaisis placed his hand on my forehead and spoke with a worried voice.

“You’re still too cold.”

“I’ll be fine if I stay like this for a while.”

“Master, do you know what your face looks like right now? You look like you could die at any moment.”

After pondering, Kaisis unfolded the blanket I had been wrapped in and pulled me into a tight embrace.

Then he covered us both with the blanket again.

“Dragons have higher body temperature than humans.”

It was definitely much warmer being in Kaisis’s arms than just being covered with the blanket.

As my tension eased, I let my head drop onto Kaisis’s shoulder.

“Master, you need to take the antidote.”

Kaisis handed me the antidote.

I tried to open the cap of the antidote, but I still couldn’t put strength into my hands.

Since I kept failing to open the cap, Kaisis took it back and opened it for me.

Then, ignoring my outstretched hand trying to receive the antidote back, he brought it directly to my mouth.

“I’ll feed it to you.”

When I awkwardly parted my lips, Kaisis carefully tilted the bottle.

The bitter antidote flowed into my mouth.

When I accidentally spilled a little, Kaisis wiped my lips with his hand.

Kaisis’s hand touching my lips was very warm and soft, and perhaps because of that, my heart fluttered.

After finishing the antidote, I burrowed back into Kaisis’s embrace.

Was it the aftereffect of the drug, or was it because Kaisis’s embrace was too warm?

With my hazy mind, I began to reveal the feelings I had been keeping inside, one by one.

“Kaisis, you’re leaving tomorrow.”

Kaisis’s heartbeat seemed to quicken a little.

“Just thinking about Kaisis leaving makes me feel so difficult and upset already. I guess I was relying on you more than I thought.”

I could feel strength entering Kaisis’s hands as he held me.

Kaisis would want to return to the north, since that’s his home.

Perhaps keeping Kaisis here might just be my selfishness.

While my head thought I should let Kaisis go, my heart couldn’t do so.

“Take care of yourself even when you go to the north. I’ll also tell Kaisis if I learn any information.”

Kaisis didn’t give any response.

In the silence, my eyelids slowly drooped, and just before I fell asleep.

Kaisis’s voice came softly.

“Master would be safer without me by your side.”

Having fallen asleep just like that, I couldn’t ask what he meant by that.

* * *

The next day, when I woke up, I found myself lying in bed, still wrapped tightly in the blanket.

Kaisis was nowhere to be seen, having apparently returned to his own room.

I looked around and quietly pushed aside the blanket to get out of bed.

After getting dressed, I went to Louis Sauver’s room and saw him sprawled out sleeping.

Didn’t I clearly tell him that early rising was a young lady’s duty?

I summoned a frying pan and ladle with magic.

And then…

Clang-! Clang-! Clang-!

As I began making a loud racket, Louis Sauver made a “eugh” sound and sat up.

“Aah! Hangover!”

Then he flopped back down on the bed and started rolling around.

Well, it would be strange if he didn’t have a hangover after drinking so much yesterday.

I clicked my tongue while looking at Louis Sauver.

Then I rang the call bell to summon the maids.

“Please help Beatrice get dressed.”

At my words, the maids bowed their heads and approached Louis Sauver.

Louis Sauver was still rolling around on the bed.

The maids dragged Louis Sauver off the bed, and he sat in front of the vanity.

Louis Sauver’s complexion was pale as he looked into the mirror attached to the vanity.

As someone who had experienced hangovers myself, I understood how difficult it was.

But this was where the ship party was being held.

As the female protagonist, Louis Sauver had to maintain the prettiest appearance possible.

I sat on the sofa watching Louis Sauver’s transformation, and when he finished getting dressed, he approached me.

“Rene…”

“What’s wrong, Beatrice?”

“I think I’m going to throw up…”

Crazy.

I smiled gently at Louis Sauver’s words while creating distance between us.

Could you please stay far away from me?

As I created distance from Louis Sauver, a maid knocked on the door.

“Miss Lockwood.”

When I opened the door, the maid looked at me with a surprised face.

“Miss Sauver is here too.”

When I nodded, the maid bowed politely and said.

“Duke Wischurs has invited Miss Lockwood and Miss Sauver to breakfast.”

I looked back at Louis Sauver, who still had a pale face.

“Beatrice, can you manage to go?”

“I can endure it for now…”

Louis Sauver nodded with his pale face.

The maid said she would guide us to the dining room where breakfast was being held and led the way.

We followed the maid.

Even though it was morning, there were many people walking around on the deck.

We passed through the deck, went back inside, and arrived in front of the dining room. The servants announced our visit and opened the door for us.

The person sitting at the head of the table was surprisingly not the Duke.

“Ah, Rene. And Beatrice.”

Why is the Crown Prince here?

Duke Wischurs was standing right next to the head seat, looking at me and Louis Sauver.

“We greet Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

When we politely curtsied by lifting our skirts, the Crown Prince smiled and gestured for us to sit.

The servants pulled out chairs for us to sit.

Not long after we were seated, the servants began bringing out the prepared food.

The Crown Prince watched the food being brought in and then turned his head toward me.

“Come to think of it, Rene. I heard you fell into the sea, are you feeling alright?”

“Yes, I’m fine…”

It was when I was about to nod and answer.

From beside me came the sound of a chair falling over with a bang.

Startled, I turned my head to see Louis Sauver staring at me.

“Rene, did you fall into the sea?!”

“Uh, um… Yeah…”

As I rolled my eyes and nodded, Louis’s eyes flashed.

“Why!”

“Well, that’s…”

As I hesitated to answer, the oblivious Crown Prince beat me to it.

“A maid apparently dropped her.”

Then Louis’s eyes began to burn with fury.

“A mere maid dares to…”

“Haha…”

“Which bastard! I’ll beat that bastard to a bloody pulp…!”

I could see the fork in Louis’s hand bending with a screech.

Oh wow, crazy.

[75% until World Destruction]

I saw the system window and barely managed to resist the urge to hold my forehead.

“Unfortunately, it seems there’s no need for you to step in, Beatrice.”

That’s when it happened.

The Crown Prince shook his head as he spoke.

Louis’s eyes immediately turned to the Crown Prince.

“Why is that?”

“That maid committed suicide last night.”

What? Suicide?

When I looked at the Crown Prince in surprise, he shrugged his shoulders.

“A suicide note was found in her room. She said she was jealous of nobles and wanted to kill any noble she could get her hands on.”

That was bullshit.

This was surely the First Princess cutting off loose ends.

But without any physical evidence that the First Princess had put drugs on the handkerchief, I couldn’t say it was her doing.

Moreover, the Crown Prince and First Princess were family. So it was even harder to accuse her easily.

As I sat there feeling frustrated and only sipping water, the Crown Prince told me not to do that and seated Louis to have a meal.

“Beatrice seems to be losing her mind again.”

When the Crown Prince shook his head and spoke, Louis sat down while fuming.

I kept drinking water out of frustration, and the Duke watched me intently.

It was burdensome.

* * *

After finishing the noisy breakfast, I went for a walk with Kaisis and quietly walked on the deck.

Kaisis followed behind me without saying a word.

I wanted to start a conversation.

But I had no idea what to say to him.

As I hesitated and only glanced around.

Exclamations from people could be heard from far away.
