Part 2, Chapter 139

I immediately thought of Lu.

What kind of tiara would the picky Lu choose?

I quickly recalled his preferences.

Lu preferred designs that were neat with small, bold color accents rather than those with large, dangling gems or decorated with abundant lace or ribbons.

‘And he likes pearls.’

Then my choice would be…

“Second from the left.”

A golden tiara decorated with pearls and diamonds.

I’ve decided on you.

“This tiara?”

“Yes.”

Trevia carefully picked up the tiara, examined it from various angles, and muttered in a small voice.

“This looks good? That can’t be right… It’s a design completely opposite to current trends, and all the diamonds embedded here are from mines near the Land of Death where there was a major accident recently, so the moment you wear it, you’ll obviously be criticized for being thoughtless…”

So that tiara had such circumstances. This was a problem with a more predetermined answer than I thought.

Then…

‘It’s a failure.’

And failure means disaster.

Trevia, who had put down the tiara, slowly turned her head toward me.

I could feel her gaze, sharp despite being reddened by tears, examining my face thoroughly.

“I thought it was a strange choice… Who are you? I’ve never seen your face before. Come closer.”

I obediently followed her command with my head bowed.

But even in that moment, I didn’t miss Trevia’s hand slowly opening the top drawer of the vanity.

‘Is there an emergency alarm in there?’

Indeed, her judgment is quick.

However, just because one’s mind works fast doesn’t mean their movements are equally swift.

As soon as I approached, I kicked the drawer shut with my foot and pulled out a dagger (brown) from inside my body to pressure Trevia.

“Ah! My finger!”

While Trevia cried holding her finger that got caught in the drawer, I threw away all the accessories decorating her ears, hands, and hair. Additionally, I thoroughly searched even inside her undergarments just in case.

“This… this rudeness! Take your hands off me right now! There’s an intruder here…! Mmph, mmph-.”

Finally, when I searched inside her mouth and nostrils, a total of five suspicious magical tools were discovered.

‘To think they tried to protect the bride with such crude items.’

It was a moment when I understood Lu’s words that higher-level defensive magic actually creates bigger holes.

Riiip-

I tore the bottom of the wedding dress with my grip strength and bound Trevia’s wrists and ankles. As soon as I removed my hand covering her mouth, Trevia, with fear-stricken eyes, spoke in a trembling voice.

“I’ll give you whatever you want.”

“…”

“Jewels? Gold coins? Land? You can take it all. You can demand more if you want. I’m begging you like this, so please spare my life. If you spare my life, I’ll ask my father not to hold you accountable for your crimes.”

It was quite a calm attitude despite facing a sudden crisis. She probably received similar training several times, I would guess.

When I ignored her and trampled the magical tools that had fallen to the floor with my foot, she seemed to realize that words wouldn’t work and began threatening loudly.

“Do you think you’ll be safe after doing this? I am a divine knight chosen by Lord Spolia! The moment you harm me, the gods of the Western Continent will punish you…!”

“Why were you crying?”

“…What?”

I faced Trevia, who asked back quietly, and opened the tightly locked window wide.

“You were crying quite sorrowfully. Was this marriage so terrible that it made you cry? You’re not in such a position.”

Wasn’t it Trevia herself who brought Raphael after trying to take me away, talking about a 70-year agreement?

After keeping her mouth shut for a moment, Trevia answered in a cold voice.

“That’s none of your business.”

“Is Raphael not your type? That’s strange, I’ve never seen a woman say such things.”

“…”

“Or did you feel guilty? Because you knew Raphael would be assassinated?”

At that moment.

Trevia’s gaze looking at me became even more coldly settled.

“Who are you?”

But what good does becoming cold do?

The limbs of Mesita’s second daughter, who possessed a superior brain, were rolling around like apples fallen to the floor.

“What exactly is your identity that you know that fact…?”

That’s when it happened.

Knock knock-

Along with a small knock, an affectionate voice came from beyond the bedroom door.

“Miss Trevia, it’s me. Are you alright? May I come in now? The ceremony will start soon.”

It was undoubtedly the maid who had gone down the servants’ stairs 10 minutes ago.

At the critical moment when Trevia, who had been watching me, was about to urgently cry for help, I covered her mouth and pulled her upper body toward me, throwing our bodies toward the window.

“Hold on tight to me. Unless you want to fall to the ground and become crushed ice cream.”

As soon as I warned her, Trevia desperately wrapped her hands and arms around my neck, hugging me tightly.

“Heave.”

Although I had built up some grip strength, climbing the wall while carrying an adult woman was still not an easy task.

I finally reached the rooftop and supported myself with both hands on the floor to maintain balance.

“Don’t let go! I’m falling!”

I hadn’t recovered to that extent yet.

While slowly crawling across the rooftop carrying Trevia, she shouted loudly in a voice trembling with fear.

“Since you’re talking about Raphael Jenail, you must be an assassin from the Empire! How foolish! If you don’t want to incur Lord Spolia’s wrath, put me back where I belong right now and disappear! If that person becomes angry, the Empire will be completely annihilated…!”

“I’m not an assassin from the Empire.”

“Lies!”

“My name is Daisy. I’m also called by another name, Andert Pager.”

And right now I’m your kidnapper. The purpose is to nullify the wedding. That rhyme just now was pretty cool.

“I’m the man you rushed to marry.”

Anyway, from this moment when this woman was kidnapped by me, she’s destined not to return to Mesita for a long time. If she’s unlucky, she might never return for life.

In that sense, I honestly revealed my identity, but Trevia didn’t seem to believe it at all.

“Lies… lies…”

Yeah, I wouldn’t believe it either. She had even directly faced me when I was transformed into Andert, hadn’t she?

I sat Trevia near the chimney, at the edge of the roof, and sat beside her while pulling out the dagger (brown) again.

And I repeated our first meeting from memory exactly as it was.

“I can tell what kind of person you are just by looking at your eyes.”

“…”

“To appear before Natasha while hiding such crude tools. What’s your real purpose?”

Trevia’s eyes, which had been filled with disbelief, suddenly lost focus and became dazed.

“How… Lord Andert…”

“Stop making that stupid expression and look down. Aren’t you curious about how the wedding without you is going?”

I’m curious.

I stuck my head out over the roof and looked down.

I could feel through the soles of my feet that the building was becoming noisy. At that timing, I also saw a few servants urgently running through the outdoor banquet hall filled with bustling music and laughter.

Ah, Raphael is over there.

‘How handsome.’

Dressed up like a groom, he gives a completely different impression from his usual self.

Indeed, there couldn’t exist a bride in this world who would reject such a man. I was feeling proud while watching when a man flew over like an arrow and began whispering something in his ear.

He was probably informing him about Trevia’s disappearance.

‘I even left the window wide open so they’d know immediately.’

The moment Raphael, who had hardened his already cold expression even more rigidly, turned his head.

Our eyes met in mid-air.

Yes, precisely Raphael’s and my eyes.

‘…Oh no.’

I hurriedly scooped up Trevia and leaped up onto the rooftop.
