Then there’s only one possibility. Some crazy girl must have hit on Sihael.
“It’s a problem if you’re too good.”
Tsk, I clicked my tongue. Then, I warned the two people who were still looking at me warily.
“Listen, Your Highness is not the kind of promiscuous person who plays with two women at once.”
What do you mean promiscuous? Isn’t it the word that’s furthest from Sihael?
“And even if he does, do you think you can make fun of him with your mouth? Do you think your neck will stay safe if the word goes into his ears?”
Let’s say I got dumped. The rumors of him being involved with women were not forgivable.
I didn’t know anything else, but when it came to women, he was a person who doesn’t have any dirt.
“Tell the others, too. If I hear such nonsense one more time, you all better be prepared then.”
“Alright, My Lady. We’re sorry.”
I rubbed the back of my neck when I saw the two crying. Was I being too scary towards them?
“But thank you for worrying about me. I’ll go now, so you guys do your job.”
“Yes…!”
The maids’ eyes were filled with tears. I climbed the stairs with my back against the girls bending down.
‘How annoying.’
Although it was a disguise, that day, Sihael and I pretended to be lovers. But I obviously knew that and still pushed Anisha away.
It was a big deal if there was another person like Anisha, even if she was the only one.
‘I’ll have Marina find out who it is and take measures to prevent her approaching again.’
I was startled as I subconsciously thought of getting rid of the woman around Sihael. It was a problem because these days, when I did anything, my thoughts always led to him.
“Ah, really!”
Sihael, you fool, you should be careful when there are so many people. Returning to the bedroom blaming Sihael for nothing, I approached Lumiyan, who laid on his stomach on the sofa.
When I saw his mouth sticking out like a duck, I felt a little relieved.
“Lumiyan, what is this?”
“Master.”
When I saw the picture with long red lines, I forced up the stiffened corners of my mouth.
“Winnie, what do you think? Does this face look like me?”
“It looks like some evil spirit from hell.”
When I asked Winnie, the epitome of honesty, she gave me a sharp answer. Daisy and Ella nodded after her.
Yeah, you guys think so, too, right? I thought the same thing.
The face was crushed as if it had been hit, and the red thread believed to be hair was like blood.
“Lumi, does my face look like this?”
“Yes!”
Yes, that’s right. To Lumiyan, I looked like a demon from hell. I thought I was kind to him, but I was a little shocked.
As I stared blankly at the picture given to me as a gift, Lumiyan’s eyes twinkled. Seeing that, he felt more and more like a human.
Honestly, I thought socialization with him would be impossible because our first meeting was so intense. He was just kept as a pet, and I was very proud that he had adapted so well.
“Does Lumiyan like making bread?”
“Yeah, it’s delicious.”
Alright then let me teach you that way. Anyway, if you live among humans, you must have a decent job.
Lumiyan’s baking skills were unexpectedly bad. He even made me a cake for my birthday, even with the help of others.
“Why?”
“Because it’s unique.”
As I stroked his hair, Lumiyan acted cute, as if he felt good.
“That’s right! I’m unique! I draw well too!”
No, that’s not true! Swallowing the words of denial, I turned my head to the sound calling me.
“My Lady, what should I do with this?”
Marina pointed to the self-defense items sitting proudly on the table. They were all gifts given by Lanoa. They were not just something sold on the market, but self-made self-defense items only for me. It has been a while since I received a decent present. I didn’t say anything because I was afraid he’d be too proud, but I was impressed.
However, if there was a problem, it wouldn’t be used on the assailant, but all on Sihael. My thoughts showed how much I was wary of Sihael.
“Just put in a few mana stones. Oh, and there’s scrolls too!”
After being lost in the mountains, I always took the scroll with me wherever I went.
‘I don’t have anything to use yet, but I don’t know when or where something will happen.’
Besides that, the well-forged blade that occupied one side of the room was a gift from Leonard, and although I hadn’t seen the real thing yet, I was given a villa from my parents.
‘This is the life of a diamond spoon!’
Huhu, I let out a satisfied laugh, recalling the incident that was pushed right in front of me, and shut my mouth.
‘But I didn’t become unemployed.’
Stretching my shoulders, I asked Marina, who was tying the straps on the bonnet.
“Marina, did you send the picture to the newspaper?”
“Yes.”
It was time to start looking for Lia, which had been delayed due to being busy preparing for the coming-of-age ceremony.
First, I decided to look for her in the most basic way.
Lia’s self-portrait in the pendant was sent to the most influential newspaper in the empire yesterday, so next week Lia’s face will spread across the country.
‘It’s fortunate if I succeed, but if I fail, I have no choice but to use the dark route.’
Actually, I didn’t mean to do it this far, but Lia seemed alone, and her grandfather, who was the guardian spirit of her loneliness, kept stepping on her eyes.
I received a gift, so I have to repay it appropriately. I rubbed the hidden tattoo between my silk gloves.
‘I have to go to the Magic Tower soon.’
If you go to the Magic Tower, I’ll meet Liliana, right? I sighed when I remembered the fuss over trying to connect the two of them.
I was embarrassed. I had been fooling myself that I was their wingwoman but I broke the bridge for the two of them to walk together.
I didn’t know how to face Liliana.
“My Lady, it’s ready.”
“Let’s go.”
I tried to erase Liliana’s face.
The magic tower and Liliana were important, but today, Asilah’s workshop came first.
