Edit didn’t even realize how time was passing.
Valter’s pulse and breathing were normal. His body temperature didn’t drop significantly. Yet, he couldn’t regain consciousness, appearing as if he were someone whose breath had just been cut off.
“Valter, Valter!”
Edit climbed onto the carriage and tightly held Valter’s hand.
This time, there might be a significant problem with Valter.
The expression he showed, embracing her for the last time, was eerily similar to the moment they left Lowell Mansion, instilling fear in her.
As people who found out late that Valter’s father was the Emperor began to stir, the carriage departed for Lexion.
“Duke!”
“What is this… What happened?”
As soon as they arrived at the mansion, Theos and Cassius, along with the family physicians, rushed out and moved Valter to the bedroom.
Franz, who followed the group, spoke with a trembling voice, trying to suppress his fear.
“The dagger Patricia wielded is made of Magistone. It’s filled with sharp magic. Damn it… I guess they thought Valter’s magic, originating from Lea, would be just as unstable.”
Upon hearing his words, Theos’ complexion turned pale.
“No, no. The Duke’s magic is already unstable, and if mixed with the power of another magician, it will completely collapse.”
Listening to Theos’ desperate muttering, Edit felt as if her soul was leaving her body.
“Valter…”
She lay on the bed, still tightly holding Valter’s hand, who couldn’t regain consciousness.
Even though she knew that she should be alert, especially in an emergency situation, the fear of possibly losing him again paralyzed her entire body.
“Theos. There must be some way. Right?”
“…”
Theos silently stared at her moist eyes but eventually lowered his gaze. He wanted to give her hope, but he couldn’t lie.
Thinking of Valter, who used to order meat pies for himself and his brother, Isaac, and shared them, made Theos’ eyes redder.
“I will do my best, Young Lady. Even if memories can’t be revived forever, there must be a way to save a life. Thanks to you, we obtained the Emperor’s blood.”
Edit nodded with great effort.
Soon, doctors sent by the Emperor arrived at Lexion Mansion.
“The Emperor also wishes Duke’s speedy recovery. Those who filled the courtroom are the same.”
“…”
“Please help in any way possible. It is our duty to serve those who have inherited the noble blood of the esteemed Agnus Imperial family.”
The physicians of the Imperial Palace and Lexion began discussing ways to restore Valter’s crumbling magic.
Every second, every minute passing without any progress felt suffocating for Edit.
Valter, Valter…
Come to your senses. Huh?
Isaac…
Quietly murmuring in her mind, he didn’t move an inch, like a corpse.
Although he was drifting away from her once again, all she could do was helplessly watch.
Thus, a day passed since Valter lost consciousness.
“Madam, may I come in for a moment?”
“……Vain?”
Edith, who was absentmindedly hugging Adrian, gently laid the sleeping child in the cradle and left the room.
A reflexive question popped up in her mind, thinking that he might have come to her with some urgent matter.
“Has Valter’s condition improved a bit?”
“…”
While Vain couldn’t ignore the earnestness in her question, he couldn’t lie either.
With a pained expression, he slightly shook his head and handed her a sealed letter.
“What is this?”
The quality of the paper was visibly high, and Lexion’s seal was stamped in red wax on the envelope.
Thinking it might not be a personal letter, she asked after unsealing it.
“I apologize. According to the family rules, if the master loses consciousness for twenty-four hours, in preparation for any situation, a testament will be delivered to the lady of the house.”
Testament.
Those three letters felt like a lump in her chest.
“…A testament? Did Valter’s heartbeat stop?”
“It’s not that, but… I have nothing more to say. It’s a rule decided by the head of the family to protect the family under any circumstances.”
…”
Without saying anything to the remorseful Vain, she unsealed the letter.
Inside, his familiar handwriting filled the pages.
[In case of an unfortunate event, all movable and immovable properties and titles of Valter Isaac Lexion will be inherited by his wife.]Edith let out a bitter laugh. The testament was written before Adrian was born.
At that time, he whispered to her to share his magic with the child to be born soon and live happily without any worries.
‘Valter, why…’
Thinking about him whispering that to her with a smile, and then sitting alone in the study writing the testament, something inside Edith seemed to shatter.
With emotions rising to her throat, Edith barely managed to swallow her tears.
She knew that Valter wished to regain the memories of the childhood they spent together as soon as possible. She wanted the same.
She hoped for the day when Valter, too, would remember those precious moments they had kept to themselves.

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.

Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.

“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
