Papiere fell into a deep sleep as if he were dead.

Irtis, despite holding onto hope until the end, found Luca waking up once again.

Naturally, Luca didn’t remember anything.

“Irtis, how long was I asleep this time?”

He frowned as if his head was hurting.

Irtis took him to the garden first to let him breathe fresh air.

And he tried to prepare Luca for the situation up to now.

“Luca, today Prodia made a contract with Reke. So, about that…”

However, unexpected words came out of Luca’s mouth.

“Who is Reke?”

Irtis was surprised.

But it didn’t seem like Luca was playing a prank.

His expression genuinely indicated that he didn’t know who Reke was.

“Don’t you really remember?”

“Yeah… but why does my head suddenly hurt so much?”

While saying that, Luca continued to hold his head.

Irtis’s chest sank as he watched him.

Was it because of the shock in the hunting ground, or…

‘Could it be that the divine punishment Papiere received also affected Luca?’

Irtis couldn’t help but speculate like that.

He had no knowledge of Glawacus’s ability of forgetfulness.

Therefore, he never imagined that Luca would lose only memories related to Reke.

Irtis explained everything that had happened to Luca so far.
Of course, the details about the divine window and Papiere’s condition were omitted from the conversation.

Luca, after hearing the whole story, had a very surprised reaction.

“Did such a thing happen? But why can’t I remember anything?”

“It wasn’t supposed to involve you in the demon hunt… I’m truly sorry.”

However, Luca suddenly stopped walking.

“Hey, is that Reke Elhas you mentioned a guy with black hair and good looks?”

“It seems so. Why?”

Then Luca pointed with his hand somewhere.

Far away, Prodia was seen with Reke.

There was a smile on Prodia’s face that wasn’t there before.

Luca asked with a frown, “Is that guy really trying to marry the princess by participating in the tournament? It doesn’t look like that at all from what I see…”

But Luca couldn’t continue speaking after looking at Irtis.

Irtis’s face was severely wrinkled.

Irtis’s expression, soaked with various emotions, was completely different from usual.

Surprised by his appearance, Luca unconsciously murmured, “Irtis, are you by any chance… with Prodia?”

But eventually, the worried words he was afraid of hearing slipped out of Irtis’s mouth.

“Uh, I like Prodia.”

Luca’s eyes slowly widened at those words.

Irtis finally realized his own feelings.

Surprised, Luca asked, “Then what about the Buuma Tournament? No, what about finding your parents?”
“I’ll continue participating in the tournament. That way, I can stay by Prodia’s side. But I no longer have any intention of finding my parents.”

This is insane.

Luca rubbed his head.

The rival he was most worried about had finally climbed into the ring.

“Do other guys know about you doing this?”

“Never mention it. I hate things getting noisy.”

“Sigh…”

But the immediate concern wasn’t Irtis right now.

Unbelievable things were happening right in front of them.

In the distance, Reke suddenly kneeled down and lightly kissed the back of Prodia’s hand.

It didn’t look like an ordinary greeting at all.

Even Prodia, who would usually find skinship repulsive, was responding willingly.

Surprised, Luca muttered again, “Hey… I didn’t see it wrong, did I?”

But Irtis had no response.

Feeling a chill, Luca slowly turned his head to check his condition.

In Irtis’s eyes, there was a madness that hadn’t been there before.

A few minutes ago.

Reke came to Prodia asking her to teach him about love.

“I get extremely nervous when standing in front of women.”

Using such an excuse, Reke ended up receiving Prodia’s training, even going so far as to kiss her hand.

Rising awkwardly, he asked with the most innocent expression, “Was it still a bit awkward?”

“You didn’t show a hint of nervousness.”
“Fortunately. All thanks to Lady…”

But at that moment, familiar faces appeared at Leke’s gaze.

It was Irtis and Luca.

They were approaching with displeased expressions.

Luca asked Prodia, “Nuna, what are you doing right now?”

Although he was smiling, his eyes told a different story.

Leke didn’t care much about Luca’s expected reaction.

The problem was Irtis.

Somehow, his expression seemed even worse than Luca’s.

However, Leke never imagined that Irtis would be interested in Prodia.

He just speculated.

‘Could he have found out about Glawacus?’

Of course, there was no such possibility.

Not many people knew about the abilities of that monster.

Even if Irtis discovered the truth, there was no evidence that I deliberately invoked Glawacus.

Leke casually said to Luca, “It’s nothing. I was just receiving guidance from Lady.”

“Guidance?”

“To become a Buma, I think it’s important to understand a woman’s heart. So, I sought advice related to love.”

Upon hearing this, Luca raised his eyebrow and looked at Leke.

It seemed too genuine to be a lie.

But then, Irtis suddenly spoke to Prodia.

“What if Leke gives you special lessons?”

“…Excuse me?”
