The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 134
“You did very well.”
For some reason the arsonist employed, the flames refused to be tamed.
The finest hotel in Dreykum slowly turned to ash, radiating a fearsome heat. Thick black smoke settled like fog, and since the fire could leap to nearby buildings at any moment, Neris had evacuated everyone far away.
She had spent a long time issuing orders, wearing only a robe Dorah had hastily gathered from nearby over her blood-soaked nightgown, and had only just now moved to Dreykum’s lord’s castle. Only Talprin dared tease Neris while she wore such a grave expression.
Neris finally snapped at him, still clad in servant’s garb.
“I didn’t do well at all.”
“What are you saying? I just told you—you did wonderfully.”
Talprin, who had clung tightly to Neris’s side ever since fearing another sudden move from her, even clapped his hands in apparent admiration.
“I’m the one who was wrong. Not recognizing such an extraordinary person! While everyone else stood helpless, you threw yourself in to save your friend, didn’t you? Oh, what a friend—so precious you didn’t even care for your own life! So precious, in fact, that they tried to leave you entirely! Everyone must hear this moving tale—especially Madame Ellen.”
It was truly terrifying intimidation—worse than outright insult.
Unlike Neris’s own easygoing mother, Ellen was meticulous and never overlooked anything that annoyed her. She reacted with particular irritation—and nearly hysteria—whenever Neris’s safety was involved, likely due to some profound loss she’d suffered long ago.
Though no one could possibly care more deeply than a mother, Ellen wasn’t someone Neris could placate with reassurances once her safety was confirmed. Unlike her own mother, Ellen would surely scold her until her ears rang.
Neris sighed.
“So what should I have done about what was right in front of me?”
“You should have given an order. From the moment that insolent maid brandished her knife, it was clear she’d targeted you—the advisor—from the start. She must have known we’d interrogate every involved party tonight, so she made one last gamble.”
