“Ah… I… I mean… I didn’t see anything!”
He quickly shut the door and left.
Looking at the door with a puzzled face, Jackal suddenly realized that his current pose was quite indecent.
He was loosely wearing a robe that revealed his entire chest, sitting atop her body.
Asha, too, only then seemed to become aware of it, her face turning bright red with embarrassment.
His body was filled with robust muscles from his shoulders to his chest and abs, much like a wild horse.
The inside of the loose gown was all exposed, so she couldn’t determine where to rest her gaze.
When Asha turned her gaze to the side, Jackal quickly got off the bed and spoke while looking somewhere else with a composed face.
“…I’m sorry, but we’re fugitives as it is. We can’t afford to take in a dangerous person even at the risk of our lives. I’ll take care of you until your wound heals, but after that, you’ll have to leave here.”
Asha, who had regained her senses, exclaimed in surprise,
“But I…!”
“You’ve already been disqualified from the test. You’re not fit to be a Rikaon.”
Asha was at a loss for words.
Though it was a rather harsh test, the fact that I failed was true.
When she lowered her eyes in powerlessness, Jackal said,
“You’ve experienced it, so you must understand now. How weak an existence you are. Don’t ever do something so reckless and foolish again. Unless you want your life to be shortened.”
He finished speaking and left the shack with coldness.
Asha couldn’t tell him that she had returned to the past.
She hadn’t expected the Emperor to hold her back again even after regressing.
For some reason, it felt like tears would come.
Jackal arrived at a hideout where a feast was in full swing.
But as soon as he appeared, the members of the organization glanced at each other, whispered, and giggled.
Jackal said coldly, with a stern face,
“You said there was a feast, so I came, but it seems like you were all preparing your funeral offerings.”
The noisy hideout instantly fell silent at his harsh words, and a chill wind blew through.
But they couldn’t completely erase the smiles on their faces, because they had already been informed of the misunderstanding earlier.
Somehow they hadn’t seen him, and they thought he had spent some private time with that woman.
One of the members of the organization teased,
“You really are our leader. A real man who never leaves a woman alone.”
Jackal thought he was talking about going to fetch Asha personally, but Najee came out of the crowd innocently and asked,
“Captain! Is it true that you’re taking that sister as your companion?”
“What are you talking about?”
“They said that. The captain is in the middle of a very important ritual to become a true man. That he would be too busy to come out, so we shouldn’t disturb him.”
The naive words caused the organization members to burst into laughter.
As Najee looked at him, Jackal followed his gaze down to his body and said, “Ah.”
He looked like he had just come out of the bedroom.
His mind had been so absorbed in talking with Asha that he had forgotten to change his clothes before coming out.
Jackal swept back his hair angrily.
“Damn…”
Having spat out such cold words to her, he couldn’t return to fumble around for clothes.
“…I don’t know what you all thought, but nothing happened, so keep your mouths shut.”
Jackal gave up going back, walked to the central table, and slumped into a wooden liquor barrel.
Sosa came up with a full bottle of liquor and sat next to him.
He smiled slyly and said,
“Everyone is happy that the captain brought a woman for the first time.”
“She’s not my woman. Why would they be happy?”
Jackal spoke and grabbed the liquor bottle, gulping it down from the bottle’s mouth.
Speaking nonchalantly, but for some reason, he kept drinking his liquor with a more settled appearance than usual.
The adjutant sensed that his mood was not very good, so he gave up on joking.
But a moment later, some of the organization members, already tipsy from drinking, asked.
“Captain, is your companion not coming?”
Jackal stopped his hand holding the bottle in midair.
“Once again, that woman is not my companion…”
He was about to reply with a fierce expression when suddenly,
The door burst open, and someone came in, and everyone stopped talking and looked at the door at the same time.
Jackal, turning his head, slightly furrowed one eyebrow.
Asha was standing there.
The dim hideout brightened as soon as she entered.
Her shiny blonde hair seemed to emit a halo, and her fair skin with enchanting eyes seemed to draw them in.
The organization members’ mouths were agape.
Asha, with graceful steps, arrived in front of Jackal.
“You…”
Asha looked at him, slightly perplexed, and asked,
“May I sit next to you?”
Even the organization members, who were still staring blankly at Asha, started banging bottles on the table and shouting, “Oh!” as if her words were an ‘icebreaker’ spell.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
