Chapter 63: The villainess feels danger (1)
The hug came as quite a surprise.
To think that the wicked villainess would hug me on her own volition! I found it quite hard to believe.
It seemed that me being unconscious for 15 days caused great concern to Shael.
“...”
“...”
I didn’t say anything. Because Shael was frozen while holding me, and I also became frozen like Shael.
Normally, I would be calm and thinking of a way to make fun of Shael for doing something stupid.
Perhaps I became an idiot as well...
I barely spoke to Shael, “Are you okay?”
“Ah!”
Shael hurriedly let me go, with her face blushing red.
I wanted to make fun of Shael. It was clear that she hugged me without even thinking about it. But looking at her serious face, I couldn’t make myself do it.
“Explain.”
Suddenly, she asked me to explain something. It was really unreasonable to ask me that without even mentioning what to explain.
Shael added, “Didn’t you have blood clotting disease?”
“Did you say the blood clotting disease?”
“Yes. I’m sure of the name, I heard it from a physician...”
It was an incurable disease. And it was a real one, because the name of the disease Clie was suffering from was the blood clotting disease.
I also bought Clie medicine for blood clotting disease in the past.
So I became curious. There’s no way I had the blood clotting disease. So it was clear that Shael was misunderstanding something.
“What do you mean by that? Why would I have the blood clotting disease?”
“Obviously. You had the medicine for the blood clotting disease the other day, right?”
Medicine for the blood clotting disease? There’s no way I would have had it.
I could also guess the reason why he did it.
Of course it was because of Clie!
I was able to figure it out without even thinking about it.
Since I was the fiance of the villainess, of course the past me also had contact with Clie.
Maybe I also had a private conversation with Clie in order to ease the conflict between Clie and Shael. And the Crown Prince, who always stalked Clie, would have seen it.
So it was natural for the obsessive prince to misunderstand.
In fact, it was really quite difficult to misunderstand, considering I already had a fiance. I even had the status of the heir of a duke. It was basic common sense that I wouldn’t be attracted to some commoner like Clie.
‘But I shouldn’t apply common sense to him.’
Because that Clie-crazy basta*d tried to kill even the Mage Tower Lord. Not only that, he tried to kill all the men who had private conversations with Clie.
So what if I was a man who already has a fiance? The moment I had a private meeting with Clie, the obsessive male protagonist, the Crown Prince, became enraged.
The Mage Tower Lord could keep himself safe through the Mage Tower’s excellent protection and his powerful battle magic, but... I didn’t have any of that.
I didn’t even learn any proper magic, so I couldn’t detect such a powerful poison at the time.
Befitting a male protagonist who was perfect in everything except for his personality, the Crown Prince must have completely gotten rid of all the evidence so that no one would ever know that he was the person responsible for the poisoning.
Only Shael, who was close to me, would have noticed that. But there was nothing she could do.
No matter how powerful the duke’s were, they couldn’t attack the Crown Prince with just a conjecture.
