Kieran had no intention of saving a failure that would eventually go berserk at the limit.

“If that happens, you will be disposed of immediately, so be careful.”

…Understood. Father.

The sound of dry saliva crossing the communication channel echoed clearly.

Siena was undoubtedly on the verge of her limit.

As Kieran expected, Siena was hungry without having had a ‘meal.’

“I’m hungry.”
Hunger had become overwhelming. Despite being a dead body with no metabolism, an intense feeling of hunger surged, as if the stomach roared, demanding food even though digestion wouldn’t resume.

“Human… I need to catch and devour humans…”

As soon as Elizabeth’s group escaped from the duchy, Siena went into action.

Hunting for prey.

She planned to quickly catch and devour an inconspicuous person for food, intending to bury the remaining corpse.

However, from the moment she decided to take a leisurely stroll outside, Astin began to follow Siena persistently. It was unfortunate.

Although they were theoretically sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Astin never used an address that could be considered suitable among family members.

For Astin Hainsworth, Siena Evergreen was merely ‘Princess Consort,’ a widow who lost her husband early. That was all.

While treating her with respect as a superior, Siena somehow felt that Astin didn’t view her favorably.

No trace of kindness toward Siena could be felt from his indifferent red eyes.

Seeing Siena, who had come out alone like a ghost, Astin merely grunted and pointed back to the duchy.

Siena considered these words as mere excuses. Despite the caring content, the tone was very plain, and there was no mention of a shawl or anything to keep her warm due to the cold.

Astin Hainsworth was wary of Siena Evergreen.

She tried to politely refuse, but Astin was persistent.
