Chapter 185 – How to Be Filial… You Know? (5)
At the same time, Carnea’s dormitory.
“Gee~ru~ do it.”
Liana Lumen Hark, who was rolling around on the bed, suddenly brought up her words.
“It’s boring!!”
Liana was the only one in her room, but when she didn’t answer, Liana screamed at her.
─Sug
Only then did Mel Pisa answer, half sticking her face out of her shadow her as if she could n’t help it.
“… Did you call? Her Highness her the Princess.”
“Yeah, Melfisa ♪ Anything interesting?”
There’s no way she’ll suddenly come out when she asks if there’s anything interesting.
In fact, no matter what Melfisa recommends, it will not be satisfactory to Liana.
‘I know, but…’
She was questioned and couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
Mel Pisa, as she always did, took the easy answer.
“…Then how about going back to the imperial family?”
“Melfisa. Jokes like that aren’t very funny… It’s still a disgusting place, so what are you going back to?”
“…Wouldn’t His Highness the Crown Prince like it?”
“Brother? He must be the happiest person I am in Carnea. Haa… Yes, I was wrong for asking Melfisa.”
‘…She would have said that if she didn’t answer.’
Her words are up to her throat her, but Mel Pisa knows that her life her is precious.
Mel Pisa brushed her words off with one shake of her head.
“Ah~ I want to see Eugene.”
Then Liana muttered abruptly, wrapping her body in her blanket and spinning around.
Numerous men offer jewels and gold to get their attention, but the man who is sick of that blessing is in a hurry to run away even if he pays attention first.
‘Well, that’s why it’s interesting.’
Liana chuckled.
The only person other than my brother who saw through his true nature.
Just thinking about Eugene’s flustered and helpless face makes me smile.
“She tells me that if Eugene goes anywhere, she goes too. Then she would have followed me too.”
“…”
I wonder if Gongja-nim is hiding information because he’s thinking like that.
Mel Pisa narrowed her eyes and looked at Liana, her voice leaking out from under the rolled up blanket.
“Hmm… Shall we put some surveillance on? What do you think, Melfisa?”
“… Wouldn’t it be better not to?”
“Why? Do you still worry about the one remaining blood relative?”
“…To be honest.”
Melfisa replied as if nothing happened.
Now, she said that her feelings her for Eugene were related to her flesh and blood her, and that her love her as a woman was much greater, but she did n’t have to tell Her Highness her the princess about it.
At that time, Liana crawled out of the futon.
“Ahh…! I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Yeah, a fight where you know all the cards is not fun. She can’t do that kind of thing to Eugene… And above all.”
After pondering the words for a moment, Liana smiled brightly and said.
“I have a ‘favor’ for Eugene?”
Was the word favor so frightening?
Wouldn’t it be several times safer to buy the resentment of a mad killer than to buy the favor of the princess?
For a moment such an irreverent thought passed through her mind her, but again Mel Pisa did her best to show no signs of it.
“Your Highness do as you wish.”
“By the way, Melfisa… ”
“Yes. Majesty.”
“Does your voice tremble every time you mention Eugene? Did you two have something?”
“… !”
Even Mel Pisa can’t help but be surprised by Liana’s words her that stab her in the face her while smiling brightly at her.
‘…How?’
I knew that Liana was very observant, but her Mel Pisa mask was also close to perfect.
As a collaborator of the Faboulier family, her method of concealing her feelings was etched into her body along with her scars her.
In fact, Mel Pisa’s mask had never been broken until she was taken in by Her Highness the Princess and had a relationship with her prince her.
Then Liana’s eyes sparkled as if she had found an interesting toy.
“Hmm… Look at this reaction. I only stabbed it once, but did you really think there was something there?”
‘This…’
Mel Pisa realized her own mistake of her.
She could not believe that Her Highness her, the princess, would praise her, so she gave the wrong reaction.
“…Nothing happened.”
“Wow! Are you hiding from me, Melfisa?”
“I didn’t hide it. Did nothing really happen?”
“Hufufu…♪ I guess I’ll have to take a closer look at that from now on…”
Liana’s expression her turned cold in an instant as she approached Melfisa with a smile.
“Ah, what. Things like that happen, too. Let’s end this story here.”
“Her Highness the Princess…?”
Mel Pisa tilted her head at her sense of incongruity.
The Liana she knew was never one to let go of this interest.
It means digging into it persistently and somehow extracting the desired information.
As if reading Mel Pisa’s question, Liana waved her hand and answered.
“You say I am. Or what? Would you like to dig deeper?”
“… Not that, but… “
“Then Melfisa, go to Sankisan Village and buy some cake. I suddenly had a craving for cake.”
It was a sudden order, but it was a hundred times better than being questioned.
“All right. By the way, Your Highness. Cakes are also sold inside Carnea…”
“Yeah, I don’t like Carnea. Be sure to buy it from Sankisan Village. You know the shop across from the Creampie Inn? About five there.”
“Five?”
“I feel like eating a lot. Then have a good trip~”
As if this was the end of the conversation, Liana shook her hand.
There was definitely something strange, but Her Highness’s whims didn’t happen once or twice, and Mel Pisa just followed her orders.
“Yes, Her Highness the Princess.”
Clap—
After making sure that Mel Pisa had left her room and that no one was around her, Liana stood in front of the mirror.
“Come out now.”
As Liana spoke her words of her, the mirror swayed like a lake in which a stone was thrown, and then it reflected someone wrapped around her body her in bandages.
“…Liana Lumenhark.”
The mirrored being made a voice that sounded like it was scratching her glass with a nail.
At that moment, Liana fired her coldly sunken eyes into her eyes.
“Who said you can call me by your first name? I must have told you to call me Her Highness the Princess.”
“…Human status means nothing to us. You should know that.”
“I don’t think it makes any sense either. But regardless of that, I really… Hate having my words ignored.”
Swoop—
Liana twisted the corners of her mouth and pointed her index finger at the mirror.
“So, if you’re confident, say my name again.”
A life to the extent that even through the mirror, your skin will feel chills.
Looking at Liana’s fingertips, ‘distorted desire’ swallowed her breath.
Thinking rationally, there was no way an attack through the mirror could reach it.
Even if they are talking while looking at each other like this, this is not a direct connection, but it is only reflecting their appearance with the ability of ‘distorted desire’.
However….
‘Dangerous.’
Her intuition as an apostle told her that Liana Lumenhark was dangerous.
“…Well, it doesn’t matter what the title is. It’s funny, but if you want to be called Her Highness her, I’ll call you… Her Highness her.”
“Okay. I wish it had been like that from the start.”
Only then did Liana smile and lower her finger her.
She added this and that, but in the end, she knew very well that it was ‘twisted desire’ that she bowed to Riana’s words her.
For an apostle to bow his head to a mere human is an unbearable humiliation.
‘…Is that really a human being?’
Then, what on earth is Liana who makes her endure humiliation even to the apostles?
“So what happened? I would have told you not to contact me until the day I promised.”
“…Things have changed.”
“That’s why I’m asking what the situation is. How can you not understand if I don’t explain each one?”
Catch—
‘Distorted desire’at her continued insults her gnashed her teeth and glared at Liana…
Eventually, without doing anything, she slowly spoke her words out.
“The ‘…Revived corruption’ suffered.”
“Oh my gosh, I thought she was just chilling… She’s already dead? If she did, why did she revive? Is she going to die again?”
Despite Riana’s words full of ridicule, ‘Distorted Desire’ did not respond.
After all, there was no sense of fellowship among the apostles.
“He is a fool. Anyway, because of that, all plans were quickly pulled.”
“Can I say I’m in a hurry? Do you still need more preparation?”
“That is something we have to figure out on our side. So, get ready to leave soon.”
“…Hmm.”
To Riana’s flat response, ‘twisted desire’ was added with a laugh.
“I hope Her Highness will not regret it.”
“Oh, do I look like a person who will regret something?”
There was no emotion in Riana’s eyes as she answered with a bright smile.
‘…Creepy.’
‘Twisted Desire’ clicked her tongue briefly, blurting her reflection in the mirror.
“…The exact pick-up date will be contacted again.”
At the same time as she said that, her normal mirror reflected her Liana’s beautiful figure back.
“…Now we’re running out of time.”
Riana looked at her own reflection in her mirror.
Very little
I muttered in a very slightly lowered voice.
