Schumann’s head is about to explode now.
It was because of the soon-to-be couple fighting before him.
“Why are you here with the Magic Tower Master? You didn’t say you were going out.”
“It was a sudden schedule. Schumann said he had something to buy, so I came out for a while.”
Ria, who worried that Dillian might find out about the gift, sold Schumann’s name.
Then, Dillian’s cold gaze turned to Schumann.
“I have already told you to watch your behavior.”
“Ria, look at the duke’s deadly eyes. Your brother is going to die.”
Schumann used Ria as a shield and hid behind her, and Ria attacked Dillian.
“I don’t think you should say anything to Schumann. Sir Dillian also never told me that you were meeting the princess.”
“Because there was no reason to speak about it.”
That means meeting the princess is not something worth having for Dillian, but it was a misleading statement.
As expected, Ria, who had a firm misunderstanding, clenched her fists.
“You have no reason to tell
.”
How could this brazen person exist?
He left his fiancĂ©e alone to see another woman, and he says he doesn’t need a reason?
It wasn’t just that she was upset that he was with another woman.
It was because the two of them fit the ring in a private room, is there anyone who doesn’t get angry with that?
“Are you engaged to me but fitting the ring with the princess? Is that so?”
“Wait, what is that?”
“Sir Dillian said you were going to work, so I guess that is the workplace?”
Dillian shut his mouth as Ria pointed her index finger into the room he had entered. It seemed difficult for him to say.
Schumann clicked his tongue inwardly as he appeared to dodge.
‘Ria’s going to get really angry.’
His prediction hit the mark.
Schumann, who saw her face reddened with extreme heat, was terrified that something would happen.
“Come on, Ria. Let’s calm down a little. The princess looks uncomfortable too
.”
“No, I’m having fun though.”
Schumann was at a loss for words when he saw the smiling princess covering her mouth with a fan.
Look at that relaxed look. What’s with that sightseeing attitude as if looking on the fire across the river*, knowing that it was because of her.
*The expression is often used to criticize someone who doesn’t really care about what’s going on, although it should be a concern to them.
Schumann, who had barely grasped the desire to throw everything away and return home, facepalmed.
‘It was a good choice to push them straight into an empty room when the atmosphere turned weird.’
The lovers, Ria and Dillian, each enjoyed a secret meeting with their other lovers, and they looked like they were fighting because they caught each other.
If it were a little later, the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper would have been decorated with colorful phrases.
<Shock! Duke Sinaize and His Fiancée Disharmony!>
<The Secret Meeting Between The Duke of Sinaize and The Princess!>
<The Magic Tower Master is The Reason Why The Couple of The Century Broke Up?!>
It was obvious that there was going to be some weird gossip.
‘I should have run away like that maid.’
Schumann let out a deep sigh, remembering Sera who had a quick hunch and escaped to the carriage first.
“First, let’s sit down and talk calmly.”
“Good idea. My legs hurt.”
At Schumann’s words, the princess, Daisy, took a seat.
Likewise, Ria, whose face hardened coldly, sat down and chinked at Schumann.
“What’re you doing? Sit down.”
“Ria, do you know that you are very strange right now? You are too fired up. Let’s calm down.”
“What am I? I’m extremely calm right now.”
Schumann was so bewildered at Ria’s figure he saw for the first time.
When May and himself had a fight, it was Ria who always stopped them. Because she was the most rational.
But now he knows.
What’s really scary is the fact that it’s Ria whose eyes have lost focus.
“
 Yeah, I guess so.”
Even if he said no, she seemed unwilling to listen.
There was a hand grabbing his shoulder as he walked over to Ria’s side with a sigh.
“Where are you going to sit? Looks like your liver came out of your stomach*.”
*It is a Korean saying used to make fun of or criticize someone who acts way too recklessly without fearing possible consequences.
Crack. Schumann wrinkled his eyes at Dillian’s grasp, squeezing hard enough to dislocate his shoulder blade.
“You crazy man! The mages were no different from a glass. Don’t you know how to deal with them?”
“Move. That is my place.”
The eyes staring at him were so cruel that his skin stung.
“At this rate, there will be no end. How about this?”
The princess rose from her seat and moved to Ria’s side.
“
?”
What is this again? When Ria looked at her in confusion, the princess, who had kept her expressionless expression all the time, pulled the corners of her lips.
It was so subtle that no one noticed.
Now there are only two seats left on the other side.
Schumann and Dillian were forced to sit side by side.
“Move.”
“
 Don’t use your power.”
In the meantime, Dillian, who pushed Schumann away and occupied Ria’s opposite side, grabbed her hand. Schumann’s annoyed cry could not be heard.
“You must have misunderstood something, but I never did anything that would betray miss Ria’s trust.”
Dillian took Ria’s hands and calmly explained the matter.
Princess Daisy, who was listening to the story, also helped Dillian.
“The duke is right. Don’t worry, it’s a misleading situation, I’m just here to buy my personal stuff.”
But would it be as easy as it sounds?
Daisy had been courting Dillian for three years.
Until she declared that she would not marry anyone but him.
Such a person could easily let Dillian go. What if she is fulfilling her desires by using private affairs as an excuse?
Dillian, who gets deceived by it, was also a problem.
“My fiancĂ© went to look for a ring with another woman, isn’t that a betrayal of trust?”
She had seen and heard everything with her own eyes, would she believe what they say?
Ria shook Dillian’s hand fiercely and chewed her lips.
‘Why am I so angry?’
She said it doesn’t matter to her what Dillian does or who he meets. Anyway, Isn’t it just a contract?
‘Is it because she doesn’t want the person who confessed that he likes her to meet another person?’
It was an absurd monopoly. It really doesn’t make sense, but I’m doing it right now, right
?
It was obvious that she was crazy to want Dillian’s affection to be directed only at her.
Ria was confused by the emotions she felt for the first time.
Dillian looked at Ria with strange eyes, who were unable to control her emotions.
They only met for a while for the sake of each other’s benefit, and he really has no relationship with the princess.
“We only talked for a while because of the diamond mine. Coincidentally, the location was decided here, but I never did anything shameful.”
He explains the strange misunderstanding that he had an affair, but he didn’t feel too bad.
Sure enough, it’s like Ria is jealous.
Dillian couldn’t stand the rising corners of his lips, pretending to wipe his face with his hands and pulling them down.
However, Ria, who had been paying all attention to Dillian, immediately noticed the change. And the anger exploded.
“Are you smiling? Huh, I can’t help it. Seems we need to break up!”
Confusion fell on Dillian’s face at the words that sounded clear.
Because Ria, who’s jealous, is cute, and the result of not being able to control the corners of his lips is a breakup.
Not like himself, Dillian, bewildered, grabbed Ria’s hand as hard as he could.
“Miss Ria, really. I swear by my name and my family. Nothing happened.”
Dillian diligently apologized for his defense, but Ria didn’t listen.
‘Honestly, the imaginary engagement, it can really be broken now, right?’
The reason she signed a contract with him was to run away from the Great Temple.
However, contrary to expectations, she is maintaining an amicable relationship with the Great Temple, Aaron and Aina also will protect her no matter what happens.
Nathan and the other divine creatures will be on her side.
In other words, it’s fine to break up here.
“You really have no reason
.”
As if he had just realized it, Dillian’s heart became impatient at Ria’s muttering to herself.
It was good that Ria was jealous, but the situation now was a crisis he had never felt in his life.
The death of his parents, the position of the head of the family he was carrying at a young age, and the enemies who aim for the title.
In the midst of so many crises, tension and anxiety that he had never felt before came rushing in like a tidal wave.
“Miss Ria is right. It was my mistake to go into an enclosed space with the princess. For hurting miss Ria, I will apologize for the rest of my life. So please calm down and let’s talk again
.”
Schumann and the princess’s faces were stunned when they saw Dillian’s anguish for the first time.
Schumann was worried that Ria would explode again, and the princess was just having fun.
The mighty Dillian Sinaize is so desperate. It was a sight that could not be seen even for a thousand gold.
‘I can’t believe there are days like this in my life.’
The one and only princess of the empire that is full of dignity has become the audience’s number 1.
If there was popcorn here, she would have already put it in her mouth while watching it.
The soon-to-be couple, who has gone as far as they can go, a shrimp with bursting back* in between, and even a disrespectful audience that looking on the fire across the river.
*An innocent bystander.
The private room that should be quiet was chaos itself.
And finally, Ria opened her mouth.
“
 As sir Dillian said. I was so fired up. Wait a minute, let me get some air.”
“Miss Ria!”
Ria carefully pushed Dillian away, who stood up behind her.
“I will be back in ten minutes. Let’s talk calmly then.”
And then she closed the door and left.
Schumann and the princess opened their mouths at Dillian, who had been abandoned in an instant.
It was an unexpected unfolding situation.
***
The room was swept away by the storm, and only silence lingered.
At a time when no one could easily open their mouths to the cold Dillian, the princess took the lead.
“Duke, your fiancĂ©e is very cute.”
The princess who drank her share of tea twitched the corners of her lips.
“I was wondering what kind of person she is because the duke fell for her hopelessly, even I would fall for her.”
“When miss Ria returns, explain it properly. Now, thanks to someone, it looks like my marriage will be broken.”
“I think the duke who kept it secret has some faults.”
Dillian responded coldly to Daisy, who crossed the line in excitement over the lover’s love fight.
“You seem to want to part with the rabbit who is sleeping soundly in the southern villa forever.”
“
 You make a really scary threat.”
The fragrant tea turned bitter in an instant. Daisy lowered her glass and declared surrender.
“When your fiancĂ©e returns, I will explain everything, so relax your eyes.”
‘It’s scary’ said Daisy, shaking her head.
Dillian’s next target after such a princess was Schumann.
“Magic Tower Master, it would be better to take that ring off right away.”
“
 What?”
What is that man saying? Why is he ordering to take off someone else’s ring?
“I feel dirty because the design is similar to miss Ria’s earrings.”
