135.
‘The Villain- no, Ren has been with me this whole time.’
Suddenly appeared at Tillard Manor…?
I can’t trust blood relatives, but Gerard?
‘I can trust him.’
It was late, but she was fully awake now. Lillian sat up immediately and asked.
“If Gerard is next to you, please switch with him.”
– You don’t believe what I’m saying? I worked so hard-!
“…”
– Al, alright. I’ll switch now.
I guess crossing the line like this is standard for younger brothers.
Soon, Gerard’s voice could be heard.
– Miss. Have you been well?
“Gerard, I’m sorry for the late hour. But I heard the Crown Prince suddenly appeared there-.”
– Ah, yes! I thought Miss had sent His Highness to us.
…What does this mean?
– He looked once at the wall where we were standing and then disappeared just like that.
“Without saying anything?”
– Yes. Phew, his power was no joke either.
Even though it was a communication stone where they couldn’t see each other’s faces, she could sense all his emotions.
The fear that comes from overwhelming power.
Shock and such.
– Not just the monsters and heretics… He completely blew away the grassland of Tillard land before leaving.
“He blew it all away-.”
– Hmm… There were some injured, but rather, the monsters didn’t even have a chance to contaminate this area.
“…”
– Phew, he was like a monster, a monster.
“Yes, I understand. Please put Ramio back on.”
Lillian rubbed her temple.
Her heart was beating hard with an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
Stay calm. Stay calm…
First, she needed to solve the most urgent matter.
“Ramio.”
-Mmhm? What’s wro… ng?
“We’re coming right now.”
* * *
After Ren suggested they meet again in 4 years.
‘…To answer right now, you’re too tired too, aren’t you?’
‘Uh… huh?’
‘You don’t have to answer right away, so rest for now.’
He kissed the dazed Lillian’s hair and barely stopped there.
In truth, he wasn’t relaxed at all.
He wanted to ask her to marry him right away and make him her official husband-.
‘I can’t push Lily too hard.’
Lillian was kind.
But she had standards, and he knew that if he crossed that line, she would push him away completely.
You could tell by how she never once missed the Tillard Family.
‘I can’t stupidly suffer the same fate as those bastards.’
Just watch from the side with wide eyes. While quietly dealing with other guys.
But late at night.
‘Ren, this is terrible!’
Lillian came to his barracks.
With a face drained of color, no less.
‘Lily? What’s wrong.’
‘Shh. So the Second Prince doesn’t notice, quickly open a rift for me.’
The destination was Tillard Manor.
Really, before their eyes was exactly as Ramio Tillard had contacted-.
“My goodness.”
Lillian, who had clung tightly to him, gaped.
“It snowed.”
“Don’t touch it, Lily.”
Ren swept Lillian up into his arms.
Even though several hours had passed since this incident occurred, it could still be dangerous.
“Hmm… It looks like snow made with annihilation abilities.”
“Then surely. With black magic-?”
Lillian’s eyes widened.
Ren seemed to know what Lillian wanted to say.
She was probably asking if they had summoned an annihilation ability user with black magic.
…Perhaps him from a different timeline.
Evren looked around.
“Well. If that were the case, there should be traces left behind.”
There was none of that sticky presence that had lingered in the Revenants’ Palace.
“It might be my father.”
“The person who’s preventing the world’s destruction is here?”
“He’s someone who was obsessed with heresy. He might suddenly want to pop out.”
“…Hmm.”
“I’m just speaking of various possibilities for now.”
Whatever his father was doing, he wasn’t particularly interested…
The reason Ren gave such a long explanation was for Lillian’s sake.
‘She’s too anxious.’
Ren held Lillian tightly.
Just then, Ramio Tillard was running toward them frantically from the barrier.
“Lillian sis…! Ah, no, Saint!”
It’s been some time since he was educated, but seeing him about to say “sister” again, that bastard wasn’t very smart either.
Lillian frowned at Ramio.
“What happened. Are there injured people?”
“Five people got caught up in it by touching that, but they’re just scratches. Please don’t worry too much!”
Well.
Excluding that bastard Ramio, the eyes of the Tillard group that followed behind as they looked at Ren were unusual.
‘I can almost grasp what they’re thinking.’
‘Monster.’
‘Really a monster…’
There was awe, but also a creepy fear mixed in.
‘Hmm. I haven’t received looks like that for a while, so I had forgotten.’
Originally, that’s how people looked at him.
‘I’m normal. But why are you in this state!’
Even his mother had looked at him with such eyes, so it didn’t bother him.
“Ren.”
Two small hands cupped his face.
“Don’t look.”
“…Lilly?”
“And you lot.”
After Lillian smiled sweetly at him.
Her gaze shot daggers at those with strange looks in their eyes.
“Even though Our Highness is busy dealing with me and the heresy, he still came all the way here to rescue you.”
Lillian seemed to have decided to attribute what happened here to Ren’s achievements.
How shrewd of her.
And Ren enjoyed watching Lillian snap at the subordinates.
“How dare you look at Our Highness with such insolent eyes?”
“S-Saint!”
“Don’t tell me you’ve been taking bribes from the Pavil Family?”
“…!”
“Hm? Everyone’s gone quiet? Ah! Come to think of it, you’re all the ones who got along well with the Pavil Family, aren’t you?”
Everyone’s faces turned pale.
Because it was all true.
The situation had changed greatly from when Lillian was considered ‘powerless,’ but they hadn’t felt it firsthand and made a mistake!
Then Ramio started acting up.
“I told you, you fools!”
“R-Ramio-.”
“We should follow Sister Lillian and the Crown Prince! You’re glaring like axes at wounds that could heal with a bit of spit!? Huh!?”
Everyone immediately fell to their knees.
“W-we’re sorry!”
“Saint, Our Highness! Please forgive our rudeness!”
“We are deeply grateful for your rescue, Crown Prince!”
Ren chuckled at the sight.
It would be impossible not to fall even more for Lilly after this.
But then a chilling wind brushed past his ear.
…Ha. You seem pleased.
“…?”
Ren hesitated.
“Ren? What’s wrong?”
A wind carrying a voice that Lillian couldn’t hear.
…She was the woman I loved.
I wanted to see her so badly, I left the Tower of Seclusion… even started a war….
Hm? How amusing.
You who sacrificed nothing, why exactly?
Why?
As the malicious voice grew louder.
“Ren.”
Lillian lowered her voice.
The surroundings had fallen silent as a grave.
Even Ramio Tillard, who had been acting up just moments before.
“Everyone’s acting strange-. Ren? What’s wrong?”
“…Kgh.”
And Ren hastily grabbed his throat.
The mark began to glow as his body started burning up.
‘This is…!’
Someone was trying to force him into a rampage.
