Chapter 284 – Don’t Look at Me Like That
Wolfgang was always a confident man.
My favorite is frontal breakthrough. When he was thinking about it, he thought it would be better to hit it directly with his body. If he reverses or overturns a decision he has already made, it is because he has judged ‘It shouldn’t be so’, but he has never thought ‘It can’t be done’.
To that extent, if a man named Wolfgang truly made up his mind to do something, he could easily achieve that goal with a high probability.
Wu (wu).
Money.
Honor.
Love.
No matter how much others earnestly wish for it, he is frustrated because he can never get it, and even if he achieves only one thing in his life, he is evaluated as a successful life.
Of course, it wasn’t that he never experienced failure, but it was just a stepping stone to a greater sense of accomplishment.
There was no word in Wolfgang’s dictionary that he had to give up something or that he could not go any further if he ran into a solid wall.
His natural strength, talent, and masculinity made it relatively easy to obtain what he desired.
“I was… A lousy man…”
But, at this moment.
Wolfgang, slumped in a posture more appropriate to being spread out rather than sitting in a chair, stared blankly into space in deep despair.
‘Why?’
‘Why? Do you dare to challenge the decision made by the imperial princess? You rude man!’
The shocking incident that happened a while ago was still good in my eyes.
It would not be easy to give priority to the feeling of affection, but among Wolfgang’s lovers, the woman who showed the most active liking for him was, of course, Alicia.
Although they always refer to each other with radical expressions such as ‘slave’ or ‘master’, there is no doubt that she truly loves Wolfgang.
Although most of their time together is devoted to sex, copulation, promiscuity, or making children.
The fact that she was able to spend time with Wolfgang made Alicia the happiest woman in the world. She didn’t do anything, she held her hand with him, and just being still, she would put a big smile on her lips.
It was the same with Wolfgang.
Spending time with Alicia gave him the utmost satisfaction. Alicia is a woman who has no flaws except for one pervert sexual desire.
If he was her man, how could he hate her?
Even the two of them were surprisingly well matched in terms of their personalities as well as their bodies. It’s a fairly old expression, but it’s no exaggeration to say that it’s almost a match made in nature.
What did Wolfgang realize from the facts above?
—Slightly and quietly…
“Emma, isn’t that Sir Wolfgang over there?”
“Eh, I think you’re right… It’s not common to see someone as big as that.”
It was the fact that he liked Alicia much more than he thought.
“No, who knows who doesn’t know who that is?”
“Then why did you ask…”
“Yeah… That’s strange! Emma, have you ever seen him drooping like that? Ugh… It’s almost giving me goosebumps that the depression is creeping in here!”
“Yeah, that’s for sure…”
She didn’t care about the gazes of the ladies-in-waiting who looked at her and whispered.
Wolfgang sat down in the middle of the Palace of Light, sighing deeply that the ground would go out, and was constantly radiating an aura of melancholy.
“Alicia, why the hell…”
Until now, the fact that she had lost her memory hadn’t made much of a difference.
She thought she would be able to get things right in no time, and that this was just a happening.
In fact, thanks to her quick action, she found a cure not long after the incident. It was only a matter of time before Alicia’s memories were restored.
But she never expected to be sacked at the door before she even saw her face.
I never thought that access itself would be blocked. Feeling more dazed than having her head beaten with a siege weight. To Alicia now, he was Wolfgang who realized that he was no different from other people.
He was always the one she thought of Alicia as her big dog.
Now Wolfgang himself was acting like an abandoned puppy.
“Sir Wolfgang…”
Leona, the maid of honor, vividly witnessed all of this.
When she was looking at Wolfgang with the most pitiful expression, not being able to follow her words.
—Kiyi…
Wolfgang’s ears twitched at the sound of the hinges of the locked bedroom door creaking.
His gaze turned towards Alicia’s bedroom, a look of unconcealable anticipation on her face.
As if he had never been depressed, Alicia’s silver hair was visible through the crack in the door, and at the same time, his head was raised confidently and his shoulders straightened.
It was Wolfgang who regained his original form in an instant to the point of astonishing the viewer.
“Hey, hello.”
Before long, Alicia slowly appeared as if she was a puberty girl.
She was wearing a jet-black slip dress, and unlike usual, her hair was a bit messy. To anyone’s eyes, she looks like she just woke up, and on top of her head is a tiara, which she doesn’t normally wear.
She even wore a veil over her face. She has a slightly gloomy feel, completely different from the usual Alicia who prefers brightly colored clothes.
“Ugh, ugh…!”
Leaning slightly out of her bedroom, she glanced slightly at Wolfgang, who was staring at her, and blushed her face.
Then she drained and screamed.
“Hey, don’t look at me like that!”
“Yes?”
Wolfgang asked with an even more bewildered face.
He told me not to look at him in public. What kind of nonsense is this?
The moment I was about to take a step towards Alicia in a strange mood.
“That, stop! That’s it!”
Alicia panicked and stopped Wolfgang urgently.
“Wolfgang von Schwarz! You don’t come any closer to me! It’s an order!”
—Stand up
Then Wolfgang immediately stopped her steps and looked up at her.
Now she was wearing a veil over her face, but in Wolfgang’s view such a veil was not even an obstacle.
Wolfgang studied Alicia’s expression carefully. It was he who could tell just by looking at her face what her beloved lover was thinking.
If we analyze the emotion in her expression now…
Do not be embarrassed.
Shame on you.
Do not fear.
And, the complex emotions of the rest of the work, including a little reluctance and excitement.
Rather than dealing with a lover, it was closer to her reaction when she faced someone with whom she could not have a relationship.
‘Why not… ‘
Wolfgang was unfair.
Her own did nothing to her. What kind of wind had blown in her one morning that she treated him so badly?
Apparently, until yesterday, Alicia had drawn a line towards Wolfgang, but had been friendly in her own way.
I mean, he wasn’t as openly reluctant as he is now, almost like a criminal.
There was only one possibility Wolfgang could guess why she had changed this way.
‘Hasene… !’
There was a little blood on his forehead.
I was doing treatment. What if the condition gets worse?
Her anger welled up at her now absent sister. Was she lacking in education last time? If I see you again, I will definitely give you a blemish.
“…”
Wolfgang calmed his boiling anger as he silently admired Alicia’s beautiful figure.
Think positively, think as positively as possible.
Still, isn’t that much better than not changing anything? Even when taking something like an elixir, there are cases where the condition of the body deteriorates before the effect is fully used, so I must be part of the treatment as well.
He didn’t know much about the human spirit, but he decided to think about it for now.
On the other hand, Alicia, who had felt Wolfgang stare at her and shrunk her body, opened her mouth hesitantly, reluctantly.
“I heard that you also brought a cure.”
“Yes, it is. Your Highness.”
“Yes. Since the effort is imaginary, I’ll listen to it first…”
Would you like to listen?
Why the hell am I blurting my words in the middle? He brought a cure to restore his memory, but is there any reason to attach a different condition?
In the midst of tilting his head at a reaction that is not easily understood by common sense.
Alicia declared towards her Wolfgang.
“I hope you don’t look at me like that. I think I’ll get pregnant just by looking at her…!”
* * *
At that time, the outbuilding where the employees stay.
Spica, the maid in charge of education, made a request to her new juniors and her maids.
“Lastly, what is the most important rule of thumb when serving nobles?”
“Don’t see, don’t listen, don’t talk, always stick to your assigned role!”
Thanks to her thorough education, a quick answer came back immediately, but her expression still showed no signs of loosening up.
I never thought something unpleasant would happen at the same time as the new recruits were put in.
“Yes. Always engrave that fact in your heart, and until you leave this place, keep in mind that your life belongs to the Empire and the Imperial Family, not yours.”
It was true that no matter how thoroughly there was a vow of silence that guaranteed security, young people were not at ease.
The maids in charge of the invisible chores in the palace were at least okay, but it was a clear bad news that the maids in charge of the bath were being replaced at this time.
The bath attendant is one of the positions closest to the princess.
In the midst of the princess’s poor condition, if a newcomer made a mistake, the responsibility would only be taken by Spica, who was in charge of her education.
From her point of view, she would have liked her predecessor, Anna, to stay a little longer, but she couldn’t because she was quitting because of her health and nothing else.
In the end, she could only pray that her newcomer did well.
“Rael?”
At least, it is fortunate that the new child is very good.
Not only her appearance, but also her family name and demeanor are impeccable. Spica nodded her head and said.
“Is today your first shift? Don’t be nervous and just do what you learned.”
“Yes, senior.”
The new maid, Rael, smiled at her senior’s worried encouragement.
“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely do my job properly.”
