Come Here, Tyrant! - Chapter 35

‘Shall we head back?’

Looking around the waterfall, Annie, who recorded the scenery and impressions, stretched. The hem of her dress and her hat were a little damp and heavy because of the waterfall.

But it’s never a bad feeling. When she saw the waterfalls descending vigorously, she felt refreshed as if a weight was lifted off her chest.

Annie, tucking the wet hair behind her ears, set out to find Carla.

There were a lot of people visiting the waterfall, so it was crowded with no place to set her feet, but she could quickly find the tall Carla.

Annie, with her magpie feet, raised her hand up.

“Carla!”

“Oh, My Lady!”

Carla approached her as quickly as she could, avoiding people along the way. A healthy flush reddened her cheeks, as she, too, had thoroughly enjoyed the visit.

“Oh my gosh. My Lady, have you seen the waterfall? The rainbow was really pretty! So I guess that’s why people are talking about Porcaus Falls.”

“Yes. It was great.”

“Please put it in the book. This shouldn’t just be shared between us!”

“I will.”

Annie pledged and lifted her feet and moved Carla’s disheveled blonde hair behind her ears.

In the past, the two were about the same height, but from some point on, Carla got much taller.

Carla laughed, a little embarrassed.

“My Lady, people are watching.”

“It’s alright.”

From time to time, Annie took care of her as Carla would take care of her.

Carla also welcomed Annie’s touch.

“Thank you, My Lady.”

At that time, someone quickly approached the two.

“Well, if it isn’t Miss Dsev.”

Annie and Carla turned their heads at the same time. Then, they saw a dignified young man dressed neatly in Porcaus’ unique robes.

“Yes?”

“Do you know the history of this waterfall?”

‘… What is he talking about?’

Annie glanced at him, uncertain of his intentions in saying those words.

Even the faint wrinkles around his eyes were fabulous, and he said with a tight smile.

“I-I… I am the caretaker of the waterfall. So, please. Give me an answer.”

“My Lady, don’t you think he looks like a weird person?”

Carla, who clung to her side, whispered in her ear while glancing at the man. Certainly, he was suspicious by all means, with a cold sweat dripping down on his forehead.

But the eagerness of his brown eyes caught her heart.

He muttered with his blue lips.

“Please, please, please tell me. This is my lifelong wish.”

‘Why are people begging me like this today…’

She was puzzled, but what would it cost for her to say a word?

Annie, reassured by holding Carla’s hand tightly, answered confidently.

“Yeah. This waterfall began as a pond made of the goddess’ tears, and it flows into the sea, and the seawater becomes a gift from heaven…”

As she spoke, the caretaker of the waterfall hurriedly grabbed her hand.

“Yes, it is. Yes! This is a gift from heaven!”

“…”

Was he crazy?

She was seriously contemplating, but the man continued.

“By the way, a new effect was recently discovered in this waterfall!”

“We’re not interested.”

“… What?”

“Whatever you want to sell, My Lady won’t buy it.”

Carla, who warned the man harshly, snatched Annie’s hand from the caretaker.

‘How dare you just grab My Lady’s hand!’

When a spark flickered in Carla’s eyes, the caretaker was visibly confused.

He was white as a sheet, and he stuttered a bit before he spat out:

“What-What do you mean to sell?! I am by no means such a person! That’s not my intention!”

“So what is your intention? Don’t tell me you’re flirting with My Lady?”

Carla’s eyes, which were as fierce as an eagle, were focused onto the silver ring that was placed on the fourth finger of the man’s left hand.

The man shouted with a red face.

“What are you misunderstanding?!”

“Carla, wait. Then why are you doing that?”

It wasn’t just because of luck that Annie could keep her business running smoothly.

She knows how to grasp someone’s needs and understand the nature of the situation clearly.

“Tell me what you want.”

Violet eyes never blinked and stared at the caretaker.

“Well, that’s… to experience the healing power of the waterfall once…”

“Healing?”

“Yes! It has the same effect as Croco’s spring water! Just one! With just one dip of your hand, eczema, nasty arthritis, bad spines, and glass cuts, which are the long-standing headaches of housewives, will be healed!”

So loud!
