Episode 87

“Sigh….”

Cassius, with his arms, crossed over the terrace railing, sighed.

He swept away his glossy black hair as if something were not going well.

‘Blothea, why would she stay for 15 days?’

Then, as soon as he sighed a second time, a girl with pink hair appeared on the terrace.

“Then the ground will sink. Why are you sighing like that?”

Erica said as she stepped toward the railing.

As if he didn’t like her, Cassius snapped in a spiny voice.

“Who else would I be sighing for if not you?”

Erica, however, was received in an unshakable voice without a wink.

“I’m holding myself back from sighing when I see your face, but do you have to show that you don’t like it?”

“Because I hate what I hate.”

Erica snorted at Cassius’s reply.

“Good. I hate you, too. But why don’t you try at least?”

“I don’t think you’re in a position to tell me what to do.”

For a while, the two looked at each other with burning eyes as if they were eating each other.

Erica was the first to end the bloody fight.

“Does Yerine know that you’re picking a fight with me?”

“Picking a fight? You’re the one who started it, Blothea.”

“You’re not being so narrow-minded about what I said that day before, are you?”

And Erica laughed in a clear voice as if the jade beads were rolling.

“I’m just telling you the truth.”

“Yes, you are.”

Cassius replied in a sarcastic voice.

“Then when the hell are you going?”

“I told you, I’ll be back after 14 days. Did you forget about it even though you made it so obvious that you didn’t like me being here?”

Looking down at Erica, who never lost a word, Cassius spouted his tongue.

He needs to endure the next 14 days, but he feels like 15 days have already passed.

Cassius and Erica could not fight openly when Yerine was in front of them.

After the ball incident, they promised to Yerine that they would not fight each other.

When she left, however, a fight broke out without fail.

And even when Yerine was there, the fight continued, but only by purifying the language or obscuring the expression.

“So, I have 14 days left to spend a happy day with Yerine.”

Cassius frowned in on the remark.

“I’m sorry, but I’m also staying in this castle in those 14 days.”

“Excuse me, Prince.”

Erica spoke in a rousing tone as if she was dumbfounded.

“If you’ve dominated Yerine for more than a month after vacation, can’t you give me about 15 days?”

“What?”

Cassius opened his eyes thinly and asked back.

And as if to tease him, Erica held her hands together and put on a look of happiness.

“Thankfully, I think Yerine was looking forward to spending time with me.”

Speaking with her eyes shining like tourmaline, she changed her face like a palm flip and glared fiercely at Cassius.

“So please don’t disturb us. Then Yerine will be very sad.”

“Huh, that’s ridiculous.”

But that doesn’t mean that he can’t hear what she says behind his back.

“Yerine gave me a present.”

Stopping at Erica’s words, Cassius turned back and laughed at her.

“Are your confidence raised up just because of one gift, Blothea? Originally, the Duke of Spades has a tradition of giving gifts to guests when they invite them.”

And he asked Erica in a sarcastic voice, looking at her at an angle.

“Don’t tell me, you didn’t know that? You had the Duke of Spade as your friend?”

But Erica remained relaxed.

“How can I couldn’t know? But the gift that Yerine gave me was special. She gave me chocolate cookies in a heart-shaped box.”

The chocolate cookie itself was not a problem.

Now that Yerine appeared, they could not fight like before, growling.

So both Cassius and Erica approached Yerine with a smile as if nothing had happened.

“Thanks for calling me, Yerine.”

“Yes, let’s go quickly.”

Yerine smiled and asked the two with her arms crossed

“By the way, were you two talking?”

In fact, Cassius was a little afraid because all they had wasn’t a conversation, but a quarrel with each other, but he eventually answered her.

“Yes, just a little talk. It wasn’t a big deal.”

“Right, it wasn’t a big deal.”

For more,

‘This is not the time for that. I shouldn’t stay still.’

While Eugene is still there, Yerine will be either refining her magic skills or working as a Housekeeper.

He couldn’t fall behind while she was trying to equip herself with Trump’s skills.

At first, his goal was to go beyond her, and he was frustrated because he couldn’t.

But not now.

For now, all he wanted was to be not short of standing beside her.

‘Oh, why do I think of that at a time like this?’

Eugene, who complained in his heart, approached the wardrobe, thinking that he should only change his sweaty clothes.

It was just then.

Suddenly the opal ring on the desk began to glow.

Eugene frowned at the light.

‘What’s going on?’

The ring was used by Eugene to communicate with his followers urgently.

After the incident in which followers tried to undermine Yerine, Eugene cut off contact with all his followers except one who did not participate in the case.

So now the ring was only used as a means of contact with that one follower.

‘If it’s Ydir, he doesn’t call me unless it’s a matter of something important.’

Eugene has been telling him to use the ring only for urgent matters because he hates unnecessary contact.

And Ydir has never broken what Eugene said so far.

“It’s me. What’s going on?”

When he tapped the opal, Ydir’s voice came out of the jewellery.

– Eu, Eugene, I’m sorry. I can’t think of anyone else but Eugene to talk about this.….

Ydir stammered out of his usual way, and his voice was shaking.

Eugene noticed something unusual happened at once.

“It’s all right, speak slowly.”

A brief silence ensued, and Ydir, who cleared his voice, opened his mouth in a slightly cracked voice.

– The, they’re dead. Three people died in Flantz Payne…….

It was strange.

Flantz Payne was a busy street with shops.

‘Three people died there. Was there an illegal duel?’

– I saw it. Those people are dying.

Eugene asked, frowning his forehead.

“Did you see it? You?”

– Yes.

“Then testify…….”

– No, no one will believe me.

Ydir shouted in a rousing voice in excitement.

“Ydir, calm down. What did you see?”

Then Ydir answered.

– The monster, it was a monster. It was definitely a monster.

“Monster?”

Eugene asked with a frown.

And beyond the jewels, a voice of horror resounded.

– I saw a black, multi-armed monster kill people!
