“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.
