The Grand Duchess of the North Is Obsessed With Me - Chapter 48



48 – Crude Tang Tang Sect (3)

Black and silver.

Blue and red.

Two people whose only resemblance is white skin confront each other.

Gentle eyes and cold eyes.

Some say that one is the sun and the other is the moon.

Among the loud music in the party hall, people’s laughter, and conversations, only this place is frozen in the cold.

And in the midst of that chilliness, I am.

He was frowning without mercy.

“… Where does the escort knight belong?”

“Because he is an escort knight, he must ‘of course’ belong to the grand duchy.”

“Oh, I didn’t ask the Grand Duchess.”

Princess.

This woman sure… It’s awkward.

Despite the fact that Illensia, the famous Grand Duchess, is showing such open hostility, she doesn’t blink an eye.

Besides, I could see at a glance that Illensia didn’t have a good personality when she picked out and touched her sensitive parts like this.

“Because I am my own person, it is my duty to help when I am in trouble… Maybe.”

“Oh, did I trouble you?”

“…… If you ask me like that, there’s no way I’ll be able to give you an honest answer.”

The growling Elencia and the princess glancing at the opportunity while glancing over it.

I let out a small breath at the appearance of a cat and a snake.

I couldn’t understand why she was doing this with me in between, no, why the princess was doing this with Illencia’s ‘weakness’.

Being interested in the existence of the country itself was too self-conscious.

In the first place, the princess saw me for the first time today, and she had no reason to be interested in me at all.

So, this was just the princess’ pun intended to completely drive Illencia into her predicament.

———That must be why I feel so bad.

Kkaduk.

However, there wasn’t much I could do.

Since the other person was a princess, I couldn’t openly reveal anything unpleasant, and since I came here as a member of the grand duke’s family, one of my expressions could be the grand duchess’ will.

Thanks to that, all I could do was grit my teeth and endure it.

That too, while maintaining an expressionless expression.

‘It’s pitiful.’

I made up my mind to protect it, but in the end it ended up like this.

I already knew that I was still lacking a lot and that I was pathetic, but I feel that fact more desperately every time I encounter a situation like this.

But forever, I won’t live like that.

“The princess is degraded.”

Even when I think about it, an unfamiliar low voice resonates smartly.

Illencia looked at me startled at the growling voice that was different from usual, and the princess… Ignite stared at me with a curious expression.

Enduring the fact that I was still able to relax, I continued talking.

“I came here as an escort of the Grand Duchess. Please withdraw your undeserved attention.”

It was a statement that could have been taken to prison for disrespecting the princess if it was done wrong, no, if others had made it.

What I just said was like telling the princess of the empire, ‘Don’t mind me.’

But now I am a member of the grand duke’s family, and I am a person who has received the grand duchess’ affection.

Illencia can cover this much.

In the first place, it was the princess who first touched Illensia, who was still.

Wouldn’t that be self-defense?

“That sounds like I made you uncomfortable.”

Ignat said that while frowning at her.

Perhaps, seeing that he was clearly offended by my words, he unknowingly swallowed dry saliva, but did not change his attitude.

You must feel bad.

But what? Illencia next to me must have felt worse.

Of course, she didn’t say that out of her mouth. Just politely, but she straightened her back.

“She’s sorry if she was offended.”

Just this amount of apology.

I stepped back from Illencia as I handed over an apology to the line where it was difficult to say that it was polite or rude.

A gesture to make it clear that you belong to the Grand Duchess and to clearly indicate who you are touching.

Seeing that, Ignat looked at Illensia and me alternately, and her expression hardened for a moment.

The ambiguous line was actually a story that only worked for those who were mediocre.

In the first place, as long as she holds the title of princess, she should be able to catch as many pods as she wants.

Nevertheless, the reason why I can’t do that is probably because a person who doesn’t bow down at all compared to the status of a princess is standing in front of me in my background.

“… No.”

In the end, all Ignite could say was to accept my apology.

“I was too joking… It could be.”

Ignite seemed to have regained his original pace, smiling brightly and benevolently.

Even so, it seemed that she couldn’t stop her lower lip from quivering.

Looking at Ignite’s face, her expression of humiliation combined with her benevolent face, the emotion I recalled was just.

It’s a pity, it was just that.

Where are you teasing Illencia? Elencia can only make fun of me, right?

“But… Did you just say ‘now’?”

However, Ignite was more cunning and tenacious than I expected.

Knowing to back down, silently accepting the shame of her defeat, she raised her polite smile to her lips, her eyes twinkling and shining.

And at that moment, I could clearly see the difference between Elencia and Ignite.

The lofty moon floating in the night sky looks cold on the outside, but it has a warmth that strives to illuminate the darker night than anyone else.

The sun that has risen in the blue sky has a warmth that shines the world brighter than anyone else, but it has a coldness that melts everyone if you try to get close.

Things that cannot be understood by looking at only one side.

I might have noticed the back side of Ignite without even realizing it.

Ignite’s smile no longer felt benevolent and warm. It was like the sun, hiding her identity more cunningly than anyone else.

“Then she understands that she does not belong….”

“What… !”

Sensing something unusual, Ilensia opened her mouth, but Ignite’s words continued one tempo faster.

“Can I have this person?”

And Ignite’s words were like bombs.

“… ….”

I couldn’t say anything.

It was, of course, not because of the heat, but because the heat rose to the top of her head.

What on earth is it that you keep messing with because you are so dissatisfied?

I couldn’t understand it in my head.

“… How.”

“Stop it. Degrading the princess.”

Elencia’s voice echoed coldly.

Illencia has endured until now. There was a part where I handled her well, so I was implicitly trying to get over Ignite’s atrocities in a good way.

That would be true, too, because nothing good would happen to Ignite or Illencia if they quarreled here and now.

“Why is that? Grand Duchess.”

Ignite took a step closer to Ignite, who spoke hatefully as if he knew nothing.

There was not even a slight smile on her icy face.

“You are playing too much, poor princess.”

“The last one was sincere, Grand Duchess.”

Watching the nervous battle between the two, I couldn’t even breathe properly and could only swallow dry saliva.

I couldn’t understand what would be good for Ignite, who was still fighting over the emperor’s succession, to compete with the heir to the Grand Duchess, no matter how tough the other competitors were.

“What is the reason?”

There was no way I didn’t know that Ilencia was the question I felt.

Ha ha, Ilencia exhaled deeply and asked, glaring at Ignite.

Ignite was a bit taller than her Elencia, so Ilencia had to look up at her, but that didn’t make her Elencia’s anger paler.

“What reason are you talking about?”

“I am asking why you are obsessed with mine.”

‘Mine’.

I couldn’t help but stare at Illensia, who was momentarily surprised by her appearance.

Just because he is an escort knight belonging to the grand duchy, is it natural for him to say that he is his own person?

I don’t think so.

Illencia was clearly showing her possessiveness now. It also has a more intense possessive desire than ever before.

Until now, everyone had tacitly tolerated the fact that I was from Illencia, and no one stood up to it.

That’s why Illencia was venting her jealousy and hostility toward Ignite, who kept touching me.

Like when she finds a bad boy messing with her own.

And the moment he saw Illencia like that, Ignite thought.

‘…… Smile?’

He was smiling as if he was more happy than ever.
