When Reian was out of sight, Yansi asked with a mischievous smile.
“You handle the Mercenary King quite well, Lili.”
“It’s just because we became close during the escort.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
Even though I answered without hesitation, Yansi’s face seemed unconvinced.
“You might not know, but it seems the Mercenary King has dark intentions towards you, Lili. Hmm, thinking of keeping him as a paramour?”
“What? No?”
“Well. I doubt the First Prince would allow his fiancée’s paramour.”
Yansi asked me a question and then drew his own conclusion.
A paramour, huh. I smiled slightly and shrugged at the interesting imagination.
“Even if I have a paramour, the Prince won’t care.”
“Hmm, maybe. Since the First Prince only needs Ferdia’s power.”
“That’s how the engagement started.”
At my calm response, Yansi watched me closely with a smiling face.
“Why?”
“Aren’t you bothered? The First Prince doesn’t like you.”
“It’s okay. I don’t like him either.”
At that, Yansi looked slightly surprised.
“I thought you liked the First Prince, Lili.”
“To be honest, I did like him when I saw his face during the engagement. Now, I don’t care.”
His face is still to my taste, but I don’t have a hobby of stealing someone else’s man.
‘It’ll work out with Estel later on.’
When that time comes, I will leave Ferdia, so it’s a little disappointing that I won’t be able to see the beautiful couple.
Still, life is the most important. Sigh.
Yansi, walking at my pace, asked in a low voice.
“So that’s why you told Father you wanted to break off the engagement last time?”
It wasn’t exactly that, but it was roughly true, so I nodded.
Then Yansi promptly offered to help.
“Shall I help?”
“Big brother?”
“Yes. Actually, I don’t like the First Prince.”
Yansi’s proposal was quite unexpected.
After all, Yansi was also one of Ferdia’s people, and it seemed unlikely that he would want to break this relationship that exchanged political assistance with the First Prince.
But I didn’t need Yansi’s help.
“It’s okay. The First Prince and I have already talked about breaking the engagement.”
Before the words were finished, Yansi stopped abruptly and looked down at me.
“With the First Prince? Does Father know that fact?”
“I haven’t told him yet, as it might upset him. Perhaps the First Prince will tell him?”
I had once upset the Duke of Ferdia by talking about breaking off the engagement, so I was cautious.
If I got punished for insubordination again, it would be quite annoying.
“You said you don’t need my help, Lili, but I’ll gladly help if the need arises.”
It was rather active and a little strange for not being like Yansi.
‘Yansi didn’t hate the First Prince that much.’
I’m glad to help.
While hurrying again, I recalled one fact.
“Yansi brother, didn’t you say you have something to buy?”
I said so, and he had followed me as an escort, but we hadn’t bought anything yet.
But Yansi grinned and replied.
“Ah, that. I already bought it.”
“What? We haven’t stopped by any shops… What did you buy?”
“The Mercenary Corps headquarters railing, siding.”
“What……?”
I couldn’t understand Yansi’s words and stood with a dumbfounded expression, but the guy just led me and walked on.
Then I heard the sneering voice of greed.
[You’re a fool? The excuse of going shopping means it was a lie.]‘Why would he volunteer to be my escort just to make that excuse?’
[Maybe he likes you.]‘That’s ridiculous.’
The idea that Yansi could like someone was truly a preposterous story.
Recently, his attitude had been strange, but there must have been something behind it.
It wasn’t easy to understand Yansi Ferdia, who had a villainous personality.
Then suddenly, I remembered what Yansi had said earlier.
“You may not know, but it seems like Mercenary King Ian has ill intentions towards you, Lili.”
Did it appear that way in the sensitive eyes of Yansi, who was attentive to the emotional changes of others?
Naturally, I was uncomfortable with Yansi’s assumption that Leian liked me.
I knew that Leian had special feelings for me. It was impossible not to.
But it was something different from romantic emotion. Something indescribable.
Perhaps it was related to the secret Leian was hiding from me.
My pondering was short. When I stopped walking, Yansi stopped too.
“Why, Lili?”
“Yansi brother, may I ask you for a favor?”
Yansi kindly smiled and nodded.
“Anything.”
“Then please investigate Mercenary King Ian.”
He once said that he would tell me what he was hiding someday, but when was that? Was I supposed to wait and see?
‘I need to know what that secret is. Why he looks at me with such longing eyes, too.’
I was willing to borrow Yansi’s awkward strength if necessary.
If that was what it took to survive in this world.
(This is a time separator.)
In front of the Skyhawk Mercenary Corps headquarters.
All the mercenary members who were following the leader searching for Elodie could not believe their eyes when they witnessed a bizarre scene.
They were all shocked.
“The leader… has been eaten by a demon.”
“That’s not the leader.”
“I heard about it. There’s a demon that eats and wears the skin…”
“That must be it.”
The great Mercenary King Ian embracing someone so passionately, and then clutching them desperately as they tried to leave?
And his voice trembling with wretchedness?
That ‘Mercenary King Ian’?!
“I feel sick…….”
“Me, me too.”
“Waaaack.”
Mercenary members were puking everywhere. While they were denying reality, the woman in question left, and Leian stood before the mercenaries.
“Return to your duties.”
One of the mercenary members protested with a grim face to Leian’s command.
“We only follow the leader’s orders.”
“…….”
“Who are you? Why are you wearing the leader’s skin?!”
Leian narrowed his eyes at the ridiculous nonsense.
“Head.”
The command to hit their heads caused the mercenary members to start a frenzy.
“No way!”
“You’re not even the leader!”
“Give us back our leader, you demon!”
But the commotion didn’t last long.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang [dash]!
“Aaaaargh!”
They had all hit their heads lifelessly at a single glance from Leian.
A tremendous spectacle was created as a dozen mercenary members hit their heads on the street.
“Oh dear. My head’s going to burst.”
A passerby, who had stopped at the tremendous noise, mumbled in surprise.
Warning without delay and instantly using his powers to add energy… The mercilessness! The mercenary members admitted it, moaning in pain.
“It’s the leader, indeed.”
“Who said it wasn’t…….”
