Chapter 2 : Another Villain (9)
*****
“Wait!”
The man who was about to swing his sword stopped at the sudden shout.
The people in the room looked at her who suddenly shouted.
She cried out in her desperate heart that she wanted to live, but she didn’t know what to say.
After she hesitated, the man raised his sword again.
“Really wait a minute!”
He frowned as she cried out again earnestly. He was just wondering if he should just kill this.
In those eyes, her mouth uttered a word that didn’t go through his thoughts.
“Do you… do you have anything to eat….. Like candy? I want to eat one last time before I die.”
Ghosts that ate and died have a beautiful color. She looked up at him with a mournful look to buy some time, but his reaction was cold.
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Regina raised her eyebrows at his resolute voice. It also doesn’t seem to work. Yeah, it was ridiculous to think of it.
If the person doing this kind of work is weak against the target, it will be difficult to work. Just as she was about to give up all hope and put her neck on his sword, a man standing to one side approached with a playful smile.
“What about it. She’s pitiful. She’s going to die soon anyway.”
The man with the sword frowned at his words, and Regina raised her head.
Yes, even the wishes of the dead are granted, but the wishes of those who die soon cannot be granted?
“She told me to take care of it right away.”
The man with the sword shook his head, but the man who took her side cleanly rummaged through his pocket and pulled out a candy.
“It’s okay for a minute.”
“Hey.”
“Yeah, this. Let’s just give it to her and kill her.”
The man approached her with a stern voice and put a round candy in her mouth.
The man with the sword sighed deeply, but did not stop him from handing over the candy. When she ate candy and rolled it in her mouth, she suddenly felt sad and her eyes got hot.
She can’t believe she can’t eat this delicious food from now on. Is there anything to eat in the afterlife? Can she go to the afterlife before then?
Regina, who was melting candy while trying not to get tears in her sour eyes, felt a fierce look at her.
As if to deal with the situation quickly and return, she deliberately rolled her tongue more slowly.
She took the time to look around, but no matter how much she looked, there was no hole to escape.
It seemed that she could survive only when that door was wide open and all these people were gone.
In the end, Arsene didn’t come. She didn’t know if he did it on purpose or not, but she was resentful for nothing. No, it’s not for nothing. The reason she ran into this was because of his fiancee tittle.
“Please kill me at once without pain.” Resigned, Regina took a sweet breath and closed her eyes.
The man holding the sword looked at her with strange eyes for a moment, but soon he fixed the sword and grabbed it.
At that time, the outside suddenly became noisy.
Everyone’s eyes turned to the door, and the expression of the man who was holding the sword changed wildly.
The people in the room all raised their swords in unison and took a vigilant posture.
Maybe. Maybe. As if it was a dream that she had given up a while ago, her heart was pounding with hope.
One of the men in the suit caught a glance and opened the door slightly. But before he even opened the door, Gwang! With a sudden roar, the door and the person who opened the door went out and fell.
The boundaries of those surrounding the area have become sharper. Just being in between was suffocating, but the glimmer of hope excited her.
“The welcome is warm.”
She felt like she was about to cry at the familiar voice of him. There will come a day when this voice will be nice.
The person who broke the door and entered was Arsene, as expected. His fine brow furrowed as her eyes met with him who came in, brushing his messy hair.
“Put down the sword.”
Sharp swords were pushed around her neck. It was such a sad day that it seemed like it would be cut off just by the slightest touch.
Arsene smirked when he saw that.
“How cheeky of you ”
“….”
He raised the sword without saying a word, the man caused a wound on Regina’s neck. Blood spurted all over her body and she felt a tingling sensation.

If he put it a little deeper, she will die. She looked at him for a moment, and then he gave her a subtle look.
It was then that Arsene’s eyes met her. The sound sword falling echoed through the room.
*****
The men who received the man’s glance threw their feet away from what had fallen to the floor and pointed their swords at Arsene’s neck.But Regina was not worried about it. If it was Arsene, his abilities would be able to get out of that situation.It was the confidence that he could have because she had read the original.Her problem was the sword, which was close to her now. Rolling her eyes to see the situation, she decided to try the one method that came to her mind.There wasn’t much she could do on her own. Her hands were tied, and a sword was held around her neck, leaving her half lost of free will.
It hasn’t been that long, but she feels like she hasn’t seen the outside scene in a long time. There were people waiting to see if they had arrived.
She realized that she was still alive and took a deep breath. It was a sigh of relief.
“Take everything inside.”
Arsene said as he passed while holding her. A few nodded and entered the entrance they had just come out of.
He, who lightly put Regina on top of the horse he had been riding on, climbed in after her.
“What will your highness do with the kidnapper?”
Eby asked, looking up at him before they left. When asked, Arsene straight lips twisted, and he smiled.
“Of course, I should pay them back.”
He’ll have to think about how to pay it back, but he’ll just skip it.
Regina had her hands on the reins while he was talking, and the reins behind her back looked as if they were hugging her.
The sudden, conscious body temperature gave her a quick glance and tried not to touch him.
But it was the first time she rode a horse, and as she swayed unsteadily on the horse that had just started out, and was feeling the best of her first ride, Arsene hugged her and made her lean on him.
She had never learned how to ride.
“Lean comfortably.”
The voice from right above her head and the warm chest make her heart pounding for nothing.
As she relaxed, his body temperature covered her. His arms were stable and comfortable, so it felt like she could fall asleep like this for some reason.
The sound of horseshoes echoing through the quiet morning streets calmed her.
When she arrived at the mansion, which was still well lit, the servants came out to meet them.
“My lady!”
She was glad to see familiar faces like Severo, and Sally.
It was only a few hours, but she felt like a month had passed. Arsene got off the horse first and reached out for her.
Hesitatingly at the height of a fairly high horse, stretching out her arms, he hugged her and gently lowered her to the ground.
“Are you hurt?”
The area around the neck of her dress was stained with the blood she had shed earlier.
Arsene’s sleeves were also covered in blood, so the butler’s worried eyes looked at them.
Regina looked up at him, and her eyes met Arsene who was looking at her.
“Tomorrow, it would be nice to have an iron-rich diet.”
His gaze looked at Regina’s face. For a moment, her tired eyes caught his mind.
In the end, he hugged her again There was exclamation among workers who watched the appearance.
Having adjusted to her second hug, she put her arms around the back of his neck and leaned her face against him.
Her ears were a little hot, but she ignored them.
It was better to just hug and move quickly because it was clear that he wouldn’t listen to her even if she asked him to drop her off.
Arsene, who held her in his arms, quickly climbed the stairs and took her to the front of her bathroom.
The maids he had prepared in advance welcomed Regina.
“I’ll be waiting.”
She don’t know what that means exactly, but the bathroom door closed before she even asked.
After her hair was curled up to some extent, Arsene hugged her again and carried her to her bedroom.
It was almost like he was trying to disable her feet. She also felt a little burdened by his so friendly appearance, but she decided to let it go.
Because of that, she was kidnapped, so maybe it’s okay to accept a shuttle like this, above all, she was so sleepy that it was difficult to judge properly.
She even felt a little comfortable with his hand as he went up to her bed and gently laid her down.
“Sleep well.”
Regina, who dug into her blanket, nodded her head and fell asleep.
