Klaus called out to him.
“I would like to have a word with you.”
Anselot looked at Klaus askew.
“A word? With you, me?”
“What did you do to Princess Luibel while I was unconscious?”
“What?”
“Don’t even think of denying it. What did you do to make the princess so downcast?”
“……?”
“Don’t you remember anything at all?”
Anselot, looking silently at Klaus, raised an eyebrow.
“Not remember? What are you talking about?”
“……You really don’t remember.”
Then, what Anselot had done, unknown to himself, came pouring out of Klaus’s mouth.
Anselot’s face stiffened as he listened.
‘You attacked the princess.’
Luibel, who had gone out for a walk earlier, had not yet returned.
‘Your eyes were blackened by the black fog. You didn’t seem to recognize the princess at all.’
Anselot scoured the forest looking for Luibel.
‘I don’t remember what happened after I fell first. Do you really not remember anything?’
While searching through the forest, Anselot found Luibel sitting by a stream beyond the bushes.
Anselot stopped running, caught his breath, and looked at Luibel.
There were still faint scars on her cheeks.
So the scar on our princess’s beautiful face, I caused it.
I attacked her.
Swayed by that mere illusion, not recognizing her.
Anselot bit his lower lip.
‘Don’t you remember?’
Somehow, that’s why she asked me that.
It was Anselot himself who had attacked her, her knight, and her bird.
Anselot approached her with large strides.
Luibel, lost in thought, didn’t notice his approach until he grabbed her wrist.
“Anselo…?”
Just as Luibel turned to look at him.
“I did.”
Anselot cut off Luibel’s words and asked.
“Did I, attack you?”
“What?”
“Did I, attack the Princess?”
At this, Luibel’s eyes widened in shock.
“How did you…?”
“Why didn’t you say anything? Were you planning to keep it to yourself?”
Anselot asked her fiercely, almost angrily.
Luibel replied hesitantly, slightly confused.
“It’s not like you did it on purpose. Besides, I already hit you enough.”
“…….”
Anselot’s expression twisted strangely upon hearing her answer.
“Anselot? Are you angry?”
“…….”
It was an expression Luibel had never seen before, despite their time together.
“……I’m sorry.”
After a while, he apologized.
“I was supposed to protect you, but I failed and hurt you.”
“No, it’s not really your fault…”
Luibel thought it wasn’t really Anselot’s fault, despite feeling upset with him.
“The quest to confront the forest’s fog was assigned to me from the start.”
“But I dragged the Princess into this.”
However, Anselot seemed to think differently. He looked at Luibel with a somber expression.
“So, the responsibility is all mine.”
He said.
Everything was his fault for turning her into a player and dragging her into this.
“It’s not entirely true. If you hadn’t helped me, I would have been at Hezen’s mercy…”
“No.”
Anselot firmly interrupted her.
“It’s all my fault. So…”
His grip on Luibel’s wrist tightened.
“Just resent me after everything is over, Princess.”
A lonely smile appeared on Anselot’s face as he whispered.
Everything.
That is, after plunging the sword into the Dragon’s chest, gouging out its heart, and everything that would happen afterward.
Then, please resent me, Luibel.
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).
Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.
Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.
4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).
5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
