“Get out!”
“…… . ”
“Come on out! What are you doing? Get out here right now!”
Lucas’s fruitless empty cry repeated .
There was an echo of his voice in the hallway .
As the tension faded and was filled with questions instead, a different voice soon broke in .
“Excuse me, Viscount . ”
When I looked back, Sir Davery had an unbearable face…
“It’s sad, but no matter how much you call, they won’t come . No, they couldn’t come . The people you’ve been waiting for . ”
“What… . ?”
“Well, I don’t know if you have the skill to call people from the underworld though . ”
What he meant was clear…
Lucas opened his eyes .
As if he’s a really good person, kind words followed .
“Because this is not all of the people that can be seen here . ”
Only after hearing that did I think of one obvious thing that I had forgotten for a moment .
That moustache villain in front of me is actually an extra .
The real villain was Ash .
‘The Dark Guy . ’
If they were spread all over the empire, they would have been here in the territory . Or nearby . Isn’t it too easy to organize a group of power so quietly without anyone knowing?
Lucas, who had no way of knowing the fact, shook his head and denied the situation .
“Don’t be ridiculous, it can’t be! You don’t know what kind of people they are! I didn’t hear that the troops in the capital mansion had moved . The troops here…… . ”
“It’s a dangerous idea to think that you know everything . ”
Sir Davery, who said so, pulled back the sword from his waist .
“I think I’ve been kind enough, and now, would you like to meet them in the underworld to hear the details in person?”
Lucas turned pale .
No matter who heard it, it was a death sentence .
‘Byebye . ’
I said good-bye to my opponent in advance .
We see each other’s faces once every few years, so we weren’t really close, but it’s still the last greetings .
‘I hope you will not be born a villain in your next life, or even you will be born as a villain, I hope you will be a sane villain who won’t be planned to commit suicide . ’
In the meantime, Lucas’ back, who had retreated behind the stumbling movement, touched the wall .
“Oh, my God, it can’t be…… . . no way . ”
Being driven into a corner, he was like a rat at a dead end . And, as is the case with the villain who has nowhere to retreat, Lucas suddenly began to speak unquestioned words at this moment .
“I……I just did what I had to do . I did what I deserved!”
Sir Davery didn’t slow down .
He seems to have no intention of listening kindly to the villain’s last words .
Lucas’s words quickened .
“You know why I did this? Because I had to correct what was wrong . I did it because no one did it . A rotten country, a world-eating absurdity…… . ”
“I’m not curious about it, Viscount . Save it and meet your friend in the other world and talk about it . ”
He’s too cold . But I have the same opinion as him .
But it was then . There was nothing else to do, so Lucas’ expression, which he was observing as if he was watching, suddenly changed .
‘Huh?’
It was when I thought that the distorted day had become strangely bright .
“Angela! Now!”
‘Angela?’
I looked back unconsciously at the familiar name .
A small figure stood facing this side of the hallway, where the lights were dimmed and her figures looked blurred .
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry . ”
It wasn’t until a small sob came out that I knew there was something in her hand .
‘An arrow?’
“I’m so sorry . ”
At first glance, I felt like Angela was crying . However, I could not confirm in detail why .
Because Angela threw the arrow at me before that .
The scene flowed very slowly .

As soon as Ash realized that the arrow was pointing at me, he immediately grabbed me and tried to pull me in . But I was standing on the left side of Ash . The injured left arm may not have moved at his will . It seemed to me that Ash, who seemed to be hesitating, soon moved his whole body without time to think .
Time seemed to have stopped for a moment .
“Ahhhh!”
Bessie screamed in the hallway .
I came to my senses by her scream . As the time stopped, a different scene came into my eyes .
The smell of blood struck into my nose . It was not known whether it was originally blood that was overwriting his body before, or it’s really his blood .
“Ha, ha! Good job . Well done, Angela! I thought if I aimed at the Princess, it would hit you instead! I was right . ”
Lucas burst into laughter with joy .
“Your Excellency!”
I stared at Ash, which stood in my body as if stiffened and wrapped around me . There was an arrow on his right shoulder . Even though I was looking at it with my eyes, it didn’t seem real .
“What do you say, Duke? It’s not just an arrow . The arrow was covered by a special poison for the monstrous like you . Can you tell me your impressions?”
It felt like something was blocking the inside of my neck . Even the screams did not come out immediately .
“That son of a bitch……!”
“Angela! What are you doing? Come on . The rest of them are in turn, Kerhyuk!”
“Everything you do is stupid and sloppy . ”
His breathing was harsh, but his pronunciation was clear .
Lucas, who was hit exactly by the sword thrown by Ash, falls back, leaving only his death throes .
Ash made a mockery of his falling opponent .
“If you knew I was a monster, you should’ve prepared something stronger . ”
“Your Excellency! Are you alright……”
But after spitting out the words, Ash also fell down .
I shouted a scream only then .
“Ash!”
I don’t know how things went by .
I sat idly by the bedside .
A doctor’s voice was heard .
“You don’t have to worry too much . ”

He was a prominent doctor who came down from the capital, not the doctor from the mansion here .
He said Ash called him immediately to treat a potential addict after he learned of the existence of the hallucinogenic drug .
He arrived in the territory at sunset and was rushed to the mansion as soon as Ash was hurt .
“Fortunately, the treatment was quick . He was bleeding less . Even if you’re away now, he’ll get up in no time if he finds his strength . ”
Ash closed his eyes and lay in bed with no movement .
Instead, a white bandage was wrapped around the right shoulder on the upper body without a stitch .
I managed to open my mouth .
“The poison…”
“Yes?”
“He said there was poison . It’s not a common poison . ”
“If you’re talking about what was buried in the arrow, that’s fine . I’m careful to say this as a doctor, but His Excellency has a very different constitution from average people . ”
The doctor, who glanced to the affected area after the treatment, continued .
“You don’t have to worry about it because the recovery level of the body is quite high . ”
It was followed by a soft word that said, “So you can relax . ”
This was the third time I’ve heard this .
I closed and opened my eyes .
I purposely closed and opened my eyelids slowly, but nothing happened in the meantime, such Ash’s awakening .
“……Thank you . ”
“No, it’s nothing . ”
I knew that I was the reason why the doctor, who was allowed to leave the place, kept watching and repeated the same words .
I felt grateful for his consideration .
But apart from it, I couldn’t really put down my uneasiness or relax my mind as he said, no matter how reassuring he was .
I clenched my fists above my knees for nothing .
‘Is this what he felt at that time?’
Is this what Ash felt?
When I jumped in to save Ari and nearly drowned in a pond .
On the contrary, Ash stayed beside me lying unconscious all night .
‘I did a mistake . ’

At that time, I did something really bad .
I was wrong . Really .
With my mouth shut, I stared at Ash’s eyelids which were closed and not moving .
“Lady . ”
Then I heard a knock . Sir Davery, who knocked on the open door, stepped inside .
“We have sent a message to the Emperor . It’ll be there before dawn, they’ll send someone to the territory in the afternoon . ”
I just nodded at his news .
Lucas is dead .
He was struck by a sword thrown by Ash and died on the spot .
But the moment the charges of treason became clear, Lucas dared not be free even in his death .
The Imperial Court would like to transport bodies .
And there were a few additional sinners left . Those who have been involved in what Lucas has done, but who are still alive and not dead .
‘Angela . ’
Angela was immediately caught after Lucas had become like that .
As if she had no intention of running away, she did not disobey and remained obedient .
Angela had been seriously addicted to hallucinogens .
According to the doctor’s advice, Lucas said that the hallucinogen he had been secretly selling is an unusually strong type among these drugs .
In particular, withdrawal symptoms are severe, and if you stop taking it suddenly while you are deeply addicted, it could lead to death in severe cases .
The hand tremor I saw was an early symptom of withdrawal symptoms .
‘Maybe she was trying to disobey Lucas’
So if that’s why she didn’t get the hallucinogens in time and showed symptoms . But it must have been hard to bear . It was hard to imagine what the pain would be like if it was serious . Angela decided to hand over her personal information to the palace as a sinner .
It wasn’t that I didn’t feel compassion for her situation, but the crime she had already committed was too great for me to forgive her .
Actually, I didn’t feel confident if I could forgive her .
I threw away the hairpin .
It was bitter, but that was all .
And that maid who took on the role of kidnapping me but failed, which Sir Davery left on when she fainted .
As you might have guessed, she was a member of a group that was really trying to do treason .
In the process of questioning her, there was quite a long story about why she had no choice but to plot treason, but they didn’t want to know about that so they didn’t listen to her .
