The Blond Male Lead is Too Much - Chapter 83
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
I am a nobleman under the protection of the Duke of Diat, and Raviello is a priest of the central temple.
It was a combination that couldn’t be easily touched unless you were crazy.
“Is that my job? Anyway, the girl is going to be sold somewhere where money and status won’t matter.”
The man chuckled, his lips curling up slantedly.
I found it extremely disgusting that he seemed to be enjoying imagining my misfortune, but I asked as calmly as I could.
“Where are you going to sell me?”
“To the followers of the devil.”
“… … !”
“Such a beautiful young lady is becoming a sacrifice to heresy. Hehe.”
The man shuddered with an evil laugh.
This isn’t a lie, I really got goosebumps on the back of my neck.
“Then let’s meet again later.”
Taang!
The man who had deliberately struck the prison bars I was in with his palm soon disappeared.
Kuung.
As soon as the door closed, the chief priest opened his mouth.
“You’re not going to go out even like this?”
“Of course I should go. With you, Lord Ju.”
“I’m not in such a hurry to escape right away like Yeong-ae?”
… … Look at this kid, he speaks a bit lethally.
The chief priest stared blankly at me, unable to hide my disappointed expression, and then asked me an unexpected question.
“Did you really come all of a sudden from the county to find a husband?”
“Yes, to get a blond handsome husband like you, my lord. But why are you asking that now?”
It was absurd and strange to be asking such an irrelevant question at such an urgent moment, but I gave an answer anyway.
Then, after a moment of thoughtful expression, he suddenly said:
“So that’s why there are so many men interested in you?”
“……yes?”
“Whenever you go to a party or a ball, there are always blonde guys around.”
Is this kid picking a fight right now?
Of course, I know there’s a lot of room for it to seem that way, but I still felt a little wronged.
“Your Majesty, are you dating Princess Calciard?”
When I asked him, half as a counterattack and half to satisfy a curiosity I had been harboring, he unexpectedly became serious.
His face seemed more like he was annoyed than displeased.
“Don’t say anything strange. There are no personal feelings between me and the princess.”
“Ah, yes… … .”
“I have a first love. I met her when I was young, but I don’t remember her very well.”
I don’t remember, but how was it my first love?
I had that question for a moment, but I let it slide because it wasn’t important at the moment.
“Then, in order to safely meet your first love again, why don’t you go out with me now? Isn’t that boy the apprentice priest you were looking for, Your Majesty?”
He pointed to a child lying as if dead in a diagonal prison cell.
Then, the startled chief priest nodded his head, unable to deny it.
I reached out to him.
“Give me the keys. I’ll go out with you.”
“… … You’re really stubborn. Okay, let’s go. I was planning to go out and find Theo too.”
Clink.
When I put the key of the main office into the doorknob and turned it, the tightly closed barred door opened.
When we came out, we first rescued the young priest.
“Theo, wake up.”
“… … Ugh.”
No matter how much the priest tried to wake the boy, he only groaned softly and could not open his eyes.
Eventually, he carried the boy on his back. I helped him up by helping him lift the sagging boy up.
“Let’s go quickly now.”
“Just a moment, we need to let the people go too… … .”
Instead of having my hands free, I went around and tried to open the prison doors for them.
But before he could take a single step, the chief priest blocked his way.
“We’re going alone.”
“What do you mean? So many people have been unjustly arrested and may be sold into slavery―”
“Does this have anything to do with us?”
The face of the priest, revealed in the dim light, was frighteningly expressionless.
I always thought he was creepy because he had a big smile, but is this actually his real face?
“Even if we try to get them out, most of them will just end up being a burden. I can’t take responsibility for all the people here. Holy power is the power to heal someone, not the power to attack. I don’t have the power to protect a large number of civilians from those with weapons.”
There was no emotion in the voice that flowed out without any highs or lows, so it didn’t seem human at all.
“It’s not like those people can fight, and even if we let them go, it’ll only be us who suffers. Don’t you really get it?”

“… … I thought that your Majesty was a person who loved and cared for people.”
The youngest person ever to be appointed as a high priest was Raviello, and it was predicted that he would become the high priest in the distant future.
I couldn’t help but be embarrassed when he, who was famous for being the kindest and most merciful of all the priests, appeared like this.
“I love you. I just don’t love you so much that I’m so emotionally stupid that I can’t make rational decisions.”
He smiled, his red lips curling. His eyes remained cold.

“Is that true just now?!”
Bartholomew’s voice resonated through the duke’s mansion.
It was because of the news that Carl had brought a little while ago, when he had rushed into the mansion. Shailene had disappeared from the streets.
“Someone dropped me here on purpose to kidnap my owner. I think we need to find my owner quickly.”
“Huh! Who would dare to… … Shailene?”
Dane supported Bartholomew, who was staggering in shock, and spoke.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’ll definitely find Shailene.”
“Ugh… … Hurry up, Dane. We have to find her before something happens to Shailene.”
“all right.”
Dane nodded with a rare, hard look on his face and winked at Carl.
Carl left the cat with Paul and went back to the street where he and Dane had last seen Shailene.
The two men went around looking for witnesses, describing her appearance.
But it was a time when I sighed because it was not easy for anyone to come forward and say they had seen it.
“Wahahahaha!”
Karl’s eyes widened as he involuntarily turned his head at the sound of the cheerful laughter of children.
“There’s a pickpocket kid over there!”
“what?”
When Dane looked up in surprise, Carl had already run out to catch the child.
“I bought all this with my own money. If you want to eat it too―!”
“Got it.”
The boy who was bragging about handing out a bag of chips to the children was suddenly grabbed by the back of his neck.
The boy turned his head and saw the sword’s face. He turned pale in surprise.
“Ah, that old man earlier… … !”
“You stole my bag on purpose to lure me.”
“Oh, no! I never did that!”
“Don’t lie. I hate lying more than anything in the world.”
The boy shrugged his shoulders in fear as his black eyes flashed.
Dane, who had followed late, put his hand on the boy’s shoulder and smiled kindly, trying to stop him from using the knife.
“To be honest, we won’t hand you over to the guards either.”
“… … .”
“The person you tried to steal the bag from was a noble. He’s even gone missing now, causing quite a stir. If you do something wrong, you could be severely punished.”
“… … !”
The boy’s eyes shook violently. Still, he seemed hesitant to be honest.
Dane, who had been staring blankly at the bag of chips in the child’s hand, smiled gently and took something out of his arms.
“Can’t you tell me even like this?”
What Dane put into the boy’s hand was a handful of gold.
I instinctively knew that he was a child who cared about money, seeing him brag about his snacks in front of his friends.
As the boy was lost in the gold glittering on his palm, a young voice suddenly came from behind him.
“It’s true that my brother and I did it.”
The girl who had been hiding behind the boy popped her head out.
It was the boy who took Shailene to the green gate house.
“They said they’d give us money if we brought our pretty sister to the Green Gate House alone… … so we did.”
“It looks like you lured Carl and took Shailene.”
The child nodded and apologized in a crawling voice.
“I’m sorry, I’m just so hungry… … .”
“Ha, you’re saying that now―”
Carl, who had been overcome with emotion for a moment, suppressed his anger when he saw the siblings looking very discouraged.
Yelling at these kids will only serve to vent your anger.
The two men obtained information about the people who had incited the children.
A man with a knife wound on his face and a large man with missing front teeth.
Based on this investigation, we were able to figure out the identity around evening time.
“They are very evil people who secretly hold illegal slave auctions. There are even rumors going around that they are in collusion with heretics.”
A knight from the Knights Templar under the Duke of Diat stood before Dane and reported.
“So, did you find out where their base is?”
“Yes, it’s a building disguised as an inn on the outskirts of 9th Street. They’re planning to hold an early morning auction in the basement.”
Dane nodded and said.
“All knights, arm yourselves immediately. Let’s go out as soon as we get permission from grandfather and father… .”
At that moment, Karl, who had been listening to the conversation from the side, suddenly jumped up from his seat.
