Chapter 47: The villainess flaunts (1)
We left the theater. Now, I should avoid running into Clie and go home.
I walked alongside Shael, while checking my surroundings through sight magic.
And then I finally noticed, that my efforts were in vain from the start.
Clie was watching Shael and me from some distance.
Fortunately, the Crown Prince was not around Clie. But that didn’t make the situation any better.
As Shael and I moved, Clie seemed to be secretly following us.
‘Why was she suddenly following us?’
“...”
“...?”
When I stopped walking for a moment, Shael tilted her head.
“What’s wrong?”
“No...nothing.”
But Shael didn’t stop her questioning. The villainess was unusually quick to notice some thing at times like this.
“Tell the truth.”
“It’s nothing, really.”
As it was always with the villainess, she didn’t believe me.
“Let’s go back to the Azbel family now.” I said, ignoring Clie’s presence and moved my steps.
I didn’t want to meet Clie just yet. It was due to the advice written in the book, and there’s no way Shael would like Clie.
However, the villainess directly rejected my proposal.
“No. Let’s walk a bit more.”
“Yes.”
I had no power to refuse her.
Usually, Shael was the type of person who didn’t really like to wander outside.
Only days like today were different.
When I looked at Shael with a questioning gaze, I found that her face had turned frosty.
‘No way, did she notice Clie?’
Maybe she did. Shael could be very perceptive at times like this.
In the first place, Clie wasn’t even trying to hide that had while following us.
“Come on.”
I confirmed my guess from her words filled with anger. Shael had indeed noticed that Clie was following us.
I let out a sigh and walked along with Shael.
Clie still continued to follow us.
I couldn’t understand why the hell she was doing that.
But before long, I had to erase that thought. No, I had no choice but to erase it.
“No!”
“I gave you a ring too.”
I do appreciate the ring, but... ‘isn’t that the same as wrapping a leash around a person’s neck? Just like the dog that just passed by?’
However, Shael’s seemed firm in her intention. Then with a deep sigh, she handed the rope over to me.
Of course, it wasn’t for me to tie the rope on my own neck.
“Come here.”
“...?”
“You have to tie me up.”
“What, what?”
Anyway, the villainess was being selfish again. She was telling me to tie the rope around her neck!
So, I directly refused.
“Didn’t you tell me that you will respect my preference? You can’t break your words.”
[I prefer doing the tying rather than being tied.]
Actually, I had said it as a joke, but who knew that this would happen.
“...”
Shael remained silent.
No sane person would do something like that in public.
But... I had forgotten that Shael was crazy.
“Go on.” Shael nodded her head.
It didn’t matter if Clie was still following us... to think that she would go this far.
‘Maybe she really has strange preferences?’
“It was just a joke. How can I tie a rope around your neck in public? You’re not a dog.”
“I’m not joking.” Shael said as she held out her neck. “You can’t? Surely, you’re not spineless wimp, right?”
She was even provoking me.
I must say, it was a very effective provocation!
As a result of that provocation, I tied the rope around Shael’s neck before I knew it.
It was fortunate that it was a thin rope. Thanks to that, it looked like she was on a leash.
