Chapter 33

Chapter 33. At my question Lus answered.

“I said if resembling you it would be ugly so dislike.”

At the unexpected answer laughter burst.

“Next time can't older sister also go to a fun place?”

“So right now going to Anse Lake. They say the scenery there is extremely pretty.”

For reference Anse Lake was a place Logan recommended as a good place to make an alibi.

Lus who was watching me tilted his head.

“Older sister, but where did older sister's lizard go? Always carrying it around here. Where did the pocket go?”

Lus asked looking at my empty waist.

“Blackie went to do other work for a moment.”

“Does the lizard also work?”

Lus tilted his head.

“Right! Animals also work, and rest and all do!”

Actually left to Logan to put up the defense barrier.

Handed over with the pocket, and instructed never open and handle carefully.

Since said if opening for nothing or handling roughly don't even dream of seeing the daughter so won't do...

It seems exactly like holding a hostage.

Still the daughter is probably staying comfortably eating delicious things in the ducal castle around now so be relieved.

Half a day later, we arrived at Anse Lake.

As soon as getting off the carriage, I could know why Logan recommended this place.‘Many people!’ The first crowd seen since coming to this world.

Enjoying the beautiful lake scenery or not, wherever going people were swarming.‘So that's why recommended as an alibi place.’ Definitely many people so proving the alibi will be good.

Unloading luggage at a nearby inn, we headed to the lakeside.

“Waa!”

Although many people, I seemed to know the reason famous.

On the wide lake with no end visible, the ripples shone softly whether receiving sunlight.

Approaching full spring, every time the warm wind blew gently a fresh flower scent came.

A scenery hard to see in Valfruga cool even in summer.

“Pretty. Right, Lus? Good that we came?”

“Pretty but...”

Lus who blurred the end of the words stood on tiptoe and whispered to me.

“Older sister is prettier so can't I look at older sister?”

I stroked the ear area ticklish from Lus's breath touching with my hand, and with the other hand pulled Lus's hand.

Whether because of the weather strangely the eyes dazzled so couldn't look straight at Lus's face.

“...

I'll let secretly looking.”

We held hands and walked along the lakeside together.

Walking along the road with relatively no crowd was better.

In the midst of that, suddenly Lus pointed somewhere.

“Older sister, older sister. Look at that.”

“Huh? Huh! Lus, you can't look at such things!”

I hurriedly covered Lus's eyes with my hand.

Even in the midst of that the couple kissing in the bushes didn't think of separating.

This isn't even that secret a place yet passionate.

“Older sister. Is it okay now?”

“Um... No.”

Seeing by eye that won't end soon.

“Lus, let's go forward one step each from the left foot.”

I walked forward wobbling covering Lus's eyes.

After walking for a long time only when that couple was no longer visible, I released the hand that covered Lus's eyes.

Whether because of the heat of the hand Lus fanned with his hand with a slightly flushed face.

“Sorry. It was hot, right.”

When I also fanned with my hand together Lus shook his head boing boing, then asked.

“But why were those people doing that?”

“...

Yes?”

“Why were they stuck like that?”

“B-because love...?”

“Love...”

Lus covered his cheeks with both hands.

Lus's face reddened with a different heat from before.

“Then how do you know it's love?”

“Um...”

Right. How do you know love.

I looked at the other side of the lake for a moment.

In Korea busy working, and only weird guys clinging so never properly dated...

“Um... Just, just come to know. That it's love.”

I told the words heard somewhere.

Fortunately Lus passed even with that level of answer.

“Then if loving do all like just seen?”

“Umm, what... Right.”

Suddenly the Lus of the original who begged the female lead for love came to mind...

Wait.

The image of the original Lus and our Lus was too different so forgot but in the original doesn't Lus kidnap and confine the female lead?

So around the middle-late part misunderstanding that the female lead likes another man...

Even went right before breaking the female lead's ankle, yeah.

When reading as a novel it was good but thinking our Lus does such a thing in reality gave chills.

I can't see the appearance of our Lus doing that.

I grabbed Lus's shoulders and matched eyes with Lus, then said resolutely.

“Lus.”

“Yes?”

Lus blinked with an innocent face.

The appearance of the lovely child was clear without a blemish, completely not connecting with the male lead who does kidnapping confinement abuse in the original.

I chose words inside then said clearly.

“Don't make a woman cry.”

Lus tilted his head.

“If Lus makes a woman cry I'll get extremely angry. If making a woman cry even in midsummer snow falls.”

“Snow falls occasionally originally?”

Ah, right.

No matter how much thinking the Valfruga ducal house seems to have chosen the site wrong.

“Anyway. If making a woman cry...”

“If cry?”

If cry what should I say.

Uh, uh... I won't buy toys again!

Is it okay to say such words carelessly.

Isn't it bad for child education?

No, I also never had a proper parent so this... Uh, uh...

Seeing the two eyes looking sparkling as if my words are the truth of the world, suddenly the words I say started to bother enormously.

In the end, panic came and I blurted out any words.

“I, I'll also cry.”

Lus looked at me with a shocked face.

“R-really...? Older sister will really cry?”

Unexpectedly it works well?

I nodded firmly.

“Yeah. And that extremely crying in streams.”

Lus pondered for a long time with a serious face.

“...

Then men? Is it okay to make men cry?”

Yes?‘Taming the Beastman’ is a romance novel so Lus won't get involved with men.

Is it talking about fighting among friends?

“...

Men it's okay to make cry.”

“Got it.”

Lus nodded with a resolute face following me.

“I absolutely won't make a woman cry.”

“Right, right.”

Something seems strange but anyway as long as going to Seoul even if going sideways it's okay.

Kidnapping confinement abuse is blocked, right?

At that time I didn't know.

Later, at the words of not making a woman cry Lus came to have the thought that if handling the woman before crying it's okay.

When realizing it was already too late.* * *Wandering outside after a long time, it seemed I would collapse from exhaustion.

But the work to do today still remained.

I confirmed Lus sleeping soundly like an angel, and secretly left the inn with Butcher.

Butcher who lifted me leapt up to the roof.

Even adding my weight, Butcher's body movement jumping between roof and roof was light.‘Won't fall...?’ I tried hard to turn my gaze from the distant below, and hugged Butcher's neck tighter.

“Madam. You don't have to worry that much it's safe!”

“Umm, I know that...”

Knowing and directly experiencing is different.

Even amusement rides have safety bars but scary.

“How much left until the appointment time?”

“About 1 hour from now.”

Blackie was left to Logan in advance, but there was a need to get somewhat close for Blackie to draw my magic power and stamina.

Thanks to that I was heading toward the Count castle in this dawn.

Because if there's a witness for nothing it could become troublesome so couldn't even ride a horse and flying around like a thief at night.‘Not even catching wifi frequency.’ Then I'm the wifi sharer, and Blackie the phone.

If releasing the seal does longer distance communication also become possible.

Butcher and I settled on a tree where the Count castle is well visible.

“Uuu. You worked hard, Butcher.”

I took my arms off Butcher's neck and massaged.

Staying in one posture continuously the arms were numb.

Butcher massaged my arms instead of me and asked.

“Is this level okay?”

“Yeah.”

Blackie's presence was faintly felt.

Butcher took out a thick blanket and wrapped me, then brewed one cup of warm tea from somewhere and handed.

“The night is still chilly. Madam can't catch a cold.”

“Thank you. When did you prepare all such things?”

“Serving Madam there can't be even an inch of neglect! As expected I'm better than Bella?”

I drank the tea Butcher gave and said.

“Today you worked hard so I'll say you're better.”

“Good! Have to go brag to Bella.”

I groped the connection with Blackie inside and thought.‘Come to think of it, wouldn't it be okay to say that I handle a spirit beast.’ Informing all the servants is dangerous because don't know where words will leak, but to major vassals like Butcher or Bella or Lus it seems okay to say.‘For now doesn't seem a person who will betray me. Also loyal.’ I asked Butcher who was carefully clearing the surrounding tree branches so as not to scratch me.

“But aren't you curious how I block the explosion?”

I only said it's a magic item while handing over Blackie, didn't say how obtained or where obtained.

If the early Treon saw, this time he would say suspicious and try to catch evidence of connection with another force.

At my question Butcher answered calmly.

“Because everything Madam does has meaning.”

“Yes?”

“Madam is an amazing person. Brave, mysterious, and intelligent. And also...”

Butcher said counting fingers one by one.

“Ah, don't know! I'm short on learning so can't express all Madam's greatness, but I know Madam tries a lot for the family. And the work I can do there is believing Madam, and doing the work Madam instructs well.”

Seeing for several months, I also knew well that his loyalty is sincere.

If the opponent believes me like this, isn't it right for me to repay that belief too.‘Then how should I tell the story...’ The moment pondering while fastening the blanket, suddenly stamina was sharply cut and the front of the eyes spun.‘Blackie...!’ Knew instinctively.

Blackie activated the defense barrier.

Following a noisy roar rang out.
