CH 29

“Charlize, there’s a misunderstanding, but are we close enough to fix the relationship?”

Louis, who was standing still, said, as if he could not understand Charlize.

“Tia could be in danger, is that okay? You’d better fix your relationship with me. I’m trying to make a fun deal with you guys, but you don’t want to? At this rate, Tia will be back dead.”

Charlize finished her speech and hummed.

With a confident face.

But no one said anything.

Strangely enough.

Obviously, it would be normal for the original male characters to bark like dogs if she made remarks related to Tia, but it was not fun because they were all too serious.

Charlize tilted her head and tried to examine their reactions. Suddenly Jude quickly picked up a real sword and aimed it at her neck.

Charlize grinned at Jude with pride.

Lua came to the side and tried to defend her, but he stopped when Charlize gestured him not to approach her.

“Kill me. If I die, they only way to find Tia will be destroyed. Jude, aren’t you the one who wants Tia the most? You often said that Tia was your only savior. I guess you don’t want to find your savior.”

“……I’m going to kill you miserably.”

Jude bit his lower lip and slowly moved the sword against Charlize’s white neck. Then, a thin scratch was drawn upon her neck. Red blood began to gather around.

Charlize stayed still with an expressionless face, as if she couldn’t feel any pain.

As if she was asking him to do something terrible.

Jude’s eyes shook greatly.

He was overcome with anxiety that if he couldn’t find Tia so far, he wouldn’t be able to see her for the rest of his life.

‘If I don’t kill Charlize, will Tia really come back alive?’

Jude thought so and eventually pulled away the sword.

“If you can’t find Tia, prepare yourself to die in my hand, Charlize.”

“Of course, as Jude says, I will die if I don’t find Tia.”

Charlize had no lingering attachment to this world.

Even if she could not return to reality, she would rather die than live like this.

Charlize’s spirit was already rotten and tarnished.

Lua was surprised to see Charlize’s evil energy growing.

He had never seen anyone who could contain such a tremendous amount of evil energy.

Even when he first met her in the basement, Charlize was a mysterious human being who exceeded his standards.

Lua had no choice but to stop Charlize before he went wild because of the delicious evil energy of hers.

He didn’t feel like it, but he had to have a strong physical contact with her in front of those humans.

Lua approached Charlize, who was sitting in her bed, and sat next to her. And kissed her roughly on the lips.

When Charlize’s cold lips touched his lips, a tremendous amount of evil energy rushed into his body.

Lua gave her a rough kiss on the lips unlike any other time, knowing that if Charlize’s evil energy grew any more, he could become an uncontrollable monster.

The original male protagonists, who were watching the strange relationship between Lua and Charlize, stared at the two foolishly.

No one could speak in Charlize’s room, where a thick sound of lips rubbing each other could be heard.

After a few minutes, Lua and Charlize’s lips fell off.

Charlize did not blame Lua for not following her orders. Because she could feel the evil energy growing in her body. She had a hunch that the energy would eat her if it continued like that.

However, thanks to Lua, who consumed most of her evil energy, Charlize was able to return to her exhausted mind.

She broke the silence as she looked around the chilly surroundings.

“Why are you all looking at me so stupidly? Do you think I’m possessed by the devil?”

Harrison, who had been silent for a while, kissed the back of Charlize’s hand briefly with a simple word.

“I’ll do anything for Tia.”

Everyone was stunned by Harrison’s shocking remarks.

“Your Majesty, do you really intend to have a close relationship with her for Tia?”

“… of course. You guys should mend your relationship with Charlize soon. You have to stand by Charlize to find Tia. Charlize will find Tia who we haven’t found either.”

Harrison sighed as he saw people around him who looking at him as crazy.

“Your Majesty made a very interesting remark. Is there anyone else who feels the same way as His Majesty? Don’t you all want to find Tia?”

Charlize asked sarcastically.

Then Jude opened his mouth first.

“Charlize, can you prove that you are looking for Tia and not just pretending with us?”

Charlize answered with a giggle.

“I’m not a child, how could I be just pretending? If I find Tia, I’ll show her to you right away. Instead, there is one condition.”

Everyone’s eyes shook at Charlize’s words of ‘condition’.

They thought Charlize would probably make a bomb-like remark again.

However, the next words of Charlize were very ordinary.

“If you find Tia, please don’t look for me anymore. That’s my condition. I don’t think you would do that, but even if Tia wants to see me, don’t let her. Never.”

Charlize’s face, saying that, looked stern and determined.

‘I don’t want to be tied to the plot of the game. I just want to live a leisurely life.’

Charlize was really going to step out of this disgusting Duke of Rebecca family.

Because she had had enough of this shitty game.

There was no word of affirmation whether everyone agreed with Charlize.

Charlize leaned against Lua’s shoulder and asked them slowly.

“You all agree with me, right?”

“Yes.”

Starting with Harrison.

“I agree.”

Louis next.

“As long as I can find Tia, I agree.”

Jude after.

“I’ll follow you.”

Even John.

All the original male characters were friends with Charlize.

Of course, it became a relationship between Gap and Eul*, who are friends and deceive each other because of their good sense of profit.

[T/N: Gap and Eul refer to people who are in contractual situations. But mostly, Gap (or A) means someone who is in the dominant of the contract (or A) and Eul (or B), who is in the subordinate.]

“Then would you all be my friends and come no matter when I call you?”

She became as close as a spider’s web.

With them, who had a bad relationship with her.

***

Lua was consuming Charlize’s evil energy. Tilting her neck lightly, she closed her eyes without groaning, while Lua sank his two fangs in her neck.

Lua sensed something strange when Charlize didn’t say anything, and stopped his act of consuming her evil energy.

Lua’s two fangs fell off Charlize’s white neck.

Charlize, who had closed her eyes, opened her eyes half lidedly and stared at Lua and before asking.

“Lua, why did you stop eating?”

“Charlize is quiet today. I’m worried if you’re sick and don’t want to talk.”

“It’s not like that. It’s just that I feel uneasy.”

“Why? For……being friends with Tia’s men….”

Lua blurred at the word ‘Tia’s Men’, which was not yet out of his mouth.

“There’s that, too. But I can’t wait to see Tia.”

“Is there anything you want to do first when you see Tia?”

“I was thinking about giving her a slap.”

“…… Slap?”

“Didn’t they slapped me on the cheek as a punishment for giving her a hard time?”

“Will a slap be enough?”

“Yes, she ruined my life. I wanted to tell her this, but Tia didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just a crime of obeying fate. Me, too.”

“Charlize doesn’t look like a bad person at all when she talks like this.”

“Lua, did you ever see me as a bad person?”

“I guess I had no choice but to think like that because you have a lot of evil energy.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter what Lua thinks me as. I think it’s okay to show Lua everything.”

“Then you’re really going to get eaten, Charlize.”

“Lua wouldn’t eat me. I’m just going to die. So Lua, please grow up as much as you can and be the dark side of the world and grant me freedom.”

“……where do you want to go the most if you get freedom?”

“Home.”

“……home? Isn’t it still Charlize’s home?”

“The home I really need to be in. I want to go there.”

“Can we go there together?”

Charlize answered like a devil to the question of Lua’s pure intentions.

“I can only go if I die.”

“……what?”

Lua tilted his head because he thought he heard it wrong.

But it wasn’t misheard.

“It’s a place where I can only go when I die in this world. In my own home.”
