Chapter 116.2

Marquis De Flon faces execution and plans to get rid of Yurina Carthia and make his daughter a princess. But Karion finds out about his plans.

The first thing he wants to do after going back in time is to find Karion before Yurina and take him away. As well as Yurina, who tried to find him before Marquis De Flon, so as not to be killed by Karion.

At first, she probably thought: why not just kill Karion? However, from the point of view of his house, mired in conflict with the Carthia family, it would have been more attractive to use a wizard so that Lydia could smoothly ascend the throne, rather than kill the red-eyed child he thought was cursed.

So he gave him the name Karion, which means ‘winner’, and brought him to his estate to raise him as his servant. And, unlike the old version of the future, where he was expected to be executed, the current De Flon was intoxicated with a sense of victory, because he believed that he had outsmarted Yurina and the Carthia House.

According to his testament, Karion stayed with Lydia in the De Flon mansion, cherished her, and decided to devote everything to her. So, all that remains is to remove Yurina and the Carthia House, so that Lydia can come into the royal family through marriage with the Crown Prince.

History is always written by the winners. From the point of view of the main character of the novel, Lydia, her father, who risked his life, returned and saved their entire house, should be a hero.

In the original novel ‘Yurina Carthia’ in this case should be declared a villainess, an obstacle to a happy ending.

However, there is one variable here.

‘And that’s me.’

De Flon was unaware of this, but he was not the only one who saw versions of the future.

From De Flon’s point of view, a future would unfold in which Karion, raised by Yurina, captured the Marquis and brought him to his execution. But from the point of view of Yurina, as it was clear from the book, she died at the hands of Karion, sponsored by Marquis De Flon.

In fact, if the plot hadn’t been rewritten, the returnee Marquis De Flon would have died at the hands of Karion, as expected.

Yurina and Marquis De Flon. The future they knew about was completely different, but they had the same goal.

Find a red-eyed child in an orphanage, and win him over to your side so that one survives and the other is dead.

So they both searched the orphanages in the capital and nearby estates to find that child.

It was for this reason that Marquis De Flon took an interest in Reynard when he saw him in the center of the city. Then, realizing that Yurina patronized that boy, De Flon realized that he was a step too late and wanted to take him by any means.

But when he heard his name, he realized that Reynard wasn’t Karion.

“Reynard?”

Yurina didn’t know what name Karion originally had. But obviously it wasn’t ‘Reynard’.

As soon as Marquis De Flon heard this name, he realized that this was not the right child. So, he must have decided to abandon Reynard and set out again in search of Karion.

At the same time, perhaps he could guess that the Yurina in front of him wasn’t acting like the real ‘Yurina’.

Thus, even after he found Karion, he carefully concealed this fact and raised him by hiding in his own estate, and didn’t even send him to the academy. He must have come up with a plan to get rid of Yurina and Reynard step by step.

‘I guess the reason he approached the second prince is probably because Curtis has already publicly shown interest in me.’

When he returned, he must have had the idea of setting Lydia up with the man she loved, Curtis. As a result, his goal was to marry Lydia to Curtis and make her a princess. And in the near future, the Empress.

However, hatred for Yurina blinded him, made him forget the reason for his return and blindly run ahead. Instead of pushing Lydia towards the man she loves, all he had in mind was ‘make Lydia the next Empress’.

However, the Crown Prince Curtis wasn’t interested in Lydia, but in Yurina, whom the Marquis hates. So what choice did he make to make Lydia a princess?

‘You tried to marry Lydia to the second prince, and make the second prince your puppet.’

However, one question still remains.

Why did Karion, who was supposed to kill Yurina as ordered by Marquis De Flon, actually come to her and tell her all this?

‘He said it was to protect Lydia?’

So, unlike the original, the current actions of Marquis De Flon threaten his daughter, he doesn’t take into account her wishes and forces her to marry the prince?

“Yurina.”

After thinking for a long time, Yurina looked up after hearing Reynard’s voice right in front of her.

She didn’t even hear him coming, but Raynard, dressed in a robe, was already standing right in front of her. He often used space travel magic to visit Yurina without being noticed by others.

His face, dimly reflected by the candlelight, was serious without a hint of laughter. When he always looked at her, he had a very different face than when he couldn’t contain his joy and laughed.

“When did you arrive?”

“A few hours ago.”

“Then speak.”

She leaned back on the couch and held out her hand towards him. But he just looked at her and didn’t move.

“Come on.”

Reynard, who had been standing still as if frozen, took a step back only after Yurina lightly urged him and waved her hand.

Standing in front of her in a few wide strides, he bent down with one knee next to Yurina’s thigh. Then he put her hands on Yurina’s side and locked her in his arms.

The already dark room seemed even darker as he approached, with his broad shoulders.
