The Villainess is Raising the Male Protagonist - Chapter 132

Misunderstanding and Mixed Feelings (6)

“I have a lot of work to do. There’s a lot to check.”

“But…”

“Don’t worry. I won’t be able to stop you. If you’re so worried about me, I’ll accompany you.”

She said so, but it is not clear whether Arthur will come to the Imperial palace. She just wanted it to be like that.

No matter how angry she was and tried to leave him, she wanted him to follow her.

She thought the wall was torn down only by Arthur, but she guessed she was the same.

‘I need to find out what contract Nox made.’

She closed her eyes tightly. She knows that there is something to do first. She also didn’t forget to finish what she started.

Maybe the truth she learned is a small part. She gave Carl instructions first and then headed to the room.

She leaned against the chair and drooped down.

“This isn’t right.”

She got up and approached the window, and opened the door wide. The sun was setting down before she knew it. Suddenly, she remembered the Nox’s existence.

‘You must have noticed by now.’

Does he want me to be a little angry? Since he didn’t come back without saying a word, she may have been firmly upset by Nox’s personality. She looked out the window and called Nox’s name.

“Nox.”

Hmm… He won’t come, right? He didn’t come last time either.

She thought he wouldn’t come again this time. She would have thought it would last at least three days, but he suddenly evaporated.… Maybe they expected it.

She shrugged at the weather when there was no wind. If she goes back to the imperial palace, she will probably have less time to call him.

‘I have to ask you what contract you signed. I don’t think you are going to tell me, so maybe it worked out.’

The frustration doesn’t go away. Still, the uncomfortable feeling stuck to the whole body and was clingy. She didn’t know the most important one, so she felt like she was going around continuously.

“What kind of contract did you make?”

She already knows that the contract surrounding her is. If she were a devil, would she trade if he sold his soul? Since she’s greedy, maybe she’ll accept this condition?

“If you don’t come, it’ll be hard to see you for a while.”

“……When are you leaving?”

“You are here?”

Nox’s voice was heard behind her. With a big smile, she turned around and looked back. With a grim look on his face, he was sitting on the bed and staring at her.

She could tell at once that he didn’t like the current situation.

“Arthur caught on quickly.”

“Is that why you left so cold-heartedly without saying goodbye?”

“Well, looking back, it must have been that I couldn’t say hello. That’s why I called you.”

“The intention to call me seems very impure.”

Nox crossed his arms and looked up and down at her. At his gaze, she sat on the window and nodded.

Tuk-tuk. She knocked on the window frame with her finger.

“That’s right. I guess you know how I feel even if I don’t say it now.”

“It’s a little sad. There is always a reason when you call me. Again this time, you went to Arthur.”

“Is there a reason why I won’t leave you? Nox, I need Arthur.”

“And I also love Arthur.”

Nox’s eyes flashed. She thought his red eyes were swaying, but soon it sank calmly.

Feeling the pressure again, he held the window frame tightly with one hand and swallowed his breath.

“Mary, do you still believe in Arthur?”

Nox asked as if trying to get her intentions. He still has an unpleasant personality. In this situation, asking for her trust in him was also asking if her feelings for Arthur still remained.

And he’ll talk to her if she touches him a little.

For example, it’s about Arthur.

“I believe him. He told me the whole truth today.”

Only what can be said? However, she did not necessarily add the last words. The answer Nox wanted would have been ‘I don’t believe it,’ but she answered with a little bit of falsehood, on the contrary.

Nox was impatient to separate her from Arthur, so this story was enough.

“The whole truth?”

“Yes, everything.”

She confessed everything Arthur had told her. Arthur’s mouth spoke about the fairies, how Viblant was made, and what happened in the castle.

He talked more plainly than expected and stared straight into his eyes.

She wanted to see a change in his mind. At this point, Nox wondered how he would react and what he would come up with to have what he wanted.

“The most important thing is missing.”

Nox, who was still listening to her story, opened his mouth. After getting up from sitting on the bed, he approached her. One corner of his mouth twitched, but he tried to fix his mouth straight.

‘It’s done.’

It was clear that he was caught in her trap. She expected Nox to tell a story she didn’t know. A story that has been hidden and avoided.

The story of Arthur and Nox’s contract.

“Arthur loved Mary”.

“I know, I know that better than anyone else.”

Because he’s been telling her that since he first met her. He was interested in Mary’s heart at first, and now…….

“Because he loves me.”

“I’m going to tell you what you were curious about. I don’t like how you two look.”

Nox pulled out a contract. The contract, which had been swirling in the air, soon stood tall in front of her. The letters of the contract signed by Arthur and Nox began to surround her as they scattered in the air.

“Listen carefully. It’s what you’ve been curious about.”

At every word, Nox said, her whole body could not move as if it were stiff. She blinked slowly as she was standing.
