She seemed prettier and a little sharper than I remember.
“I have nowhere to go in the north after young master fired me, young lady.”
Marilyn looked at me with a pale face and smiled.
‘Her aura….. looks strange.’
Marilyn’s aura which I remember was clearly warm red. Maybe my cuteness really can’t be avoided by her.
But now it was closer to the muddy purple.
“Young lady, can you come with me?”
“Huh?”
‘Why do you want to take me out of my room?’
Of course, there is a history where I’ve been shooting all over the palace to find Dietrich, but now I don’t have to look for him because of Baal.
Baal told me every time Dietrich returned to the Dahlia Palace.
“Come here.”
Marilyn waved the fine hand that always made me pretty and called me. If her aura was the same as before, I will rush at her right now, but now I didn’t want to do it.
“Come here.”
Marilyn’s expression gradually hardens when I don’t follow her. I stepped back, avoiding her stepping towards me.
“Why are you running? Young lady, I’m Marilyn.”
“No, Nyooo.”
Marilyn approached me even though I refused loudly.
Tak Tak.
The sound of the heel of the shoe echoes loudly.
“Kyaaaaa!”
I turned away from Marilyn’s hand, but quickly got caught.
“Detteliiiiiiii!!!!!!!!”
I don’t know why Dietrich’s name came to mind at that moment.
“It’s me. It’s Marilyn. It’s okay, young lady.”
Marilyn hugged me without asking me what I wanted. Her eyes look very different. Although it’s not obvious if you look carefully, the color of her eyes used to be warm dark brown but now her eyes are almost like auburn.
‘The focus is completely out.’
I was scared of Marilyn’s empty eyes without a soul. It looked like a doll being manipulated by someone.
“Ma… Malilinn.”
Now Marilyn’s aura was an artificial aura like Lancel’s Aura. I strongest my hand and hugged her arms.
“Ouch!”
I purged Marilyn’s cloudy aura as I did to Lancel. Then, unlike Lancel who didn’t do anything when I purify his aura, I started frowning and suffering.
Her hand which holding me was so strong that her sharp nails stuck in my back.
“Ugh!”
My back was pricked and it hurt, but I haven’t stopped purifying. The more I concentrated on using Euradia’s ability, the more Marilyn’s moaning sounded. She eventually put me back on the floor and sat down.
‘A bit, a little bit more!’
I only practiced feeling the aura with my senses, but in fact, I haven’t used a lot of my ability since I don’t have a target whose aura can be touched.
However, it wasn’t difficult because Anissa knew how to use the aura.
‘Did she say if she could move the air?’
When I tried hard to mix the power of my aura into Marilyn’s aura, her cloudy aura slowly began to regain to the original color.
‘Is it eaten?!’
Marilyn’s aura finally was completely clean when sweat dripped from my forehead. The cloudy light disappeared completely.
‘Lancel’s aura was dreary no matter how hard I tried.’
“Ah… .”
I grabbed her head and slowly approached her who sitting blankly.
“Malilin?”
“Young lady?”
When I grabbed Marilyn’s hand, she suddenly burst into tears.
“Ugh, hiks! I, uhh, what are you doing now?”
“Why are you cliyng?” [Why are you crying]
“Young lady, forgive me!”
‘No, She didn’t actually do anything.’
She tried to force me to go, but Marilyn hasn’t done anything to me yet. I carefully stroked her head.
“Malilin, don’t cly.” [Marilyn, don’t cry]
It is touching to see the friendly Marilyn, who always hugged me well, crying. I wiped the tears from my eyes with my hands and hugged Marilyn’s neck.
“Don’t cly…..hiksss.” [don’t cry. Hiks]
“Young lady, hiks…hiks! I’m, I’m actually-“
The moment Marilyn opened her mouth as if trying to confess something. Her body lifted up and floated in the air.
“Arghhh!!!!”
With the sound of the wind, her body-slammed to the floor. She hit the hard floor and screams painfully.
“Malilinnnn!!!!!”
I was startled and approached her. No, I tried to get close, but I was blocked by an arm sticking out from behind.
“Oppa?”
Dietrich hugged me, I didn’t know when he came in.
‘This child didn’t come when I called him. But why did he come when I finished purifying her?’
“I don’t know how much you wasting your life.”
“Yo…Young master!”
Marilyn fell down at Dietrich’s feet.
“Please forgive me. It’s true that I’m Liatriz’s, but I…I… really care about young lady, young master!”
“Does that eliminate the fact that you’re acting like a mole?”
‘Oh, Marilyn was a spy.’
So Dietrich kicked her out.
‘But Marilyn definitely likes me.’
Even if your mouth can lie, the aura doesn’t. Dietrich shook his arms again towards her, making excuses completely useless for him.
‘Ah!’
I struggled to stop his shadow.
“Oh, no!!! Don’t!!!!!”
When I grabbed Dietrich’s arm and shook it in a hug, his shadow which reaching toward Marilyn also lost direction. He looked me in the eye in annoyance when I interrupted the action.
“What can’t be done?”
“Don’t kill malilin.”
I was forced out of Dietrich’s arms and walked in front of Marilyn.
Dietrich’s making ridiculous laugh when I reached out with my short arm and blocked between him and her.
“Move.”
“N..no, hiks”
I’m afraid of being attacked by Dietrich, but I couldn’t let Marilyn die.
She was the first person to be kind to me.
In addition, it was clear Liatriz’s actions when considering Marilyn’s strange aura.
“Young lady, no, no! Please leave!”
Marilyn cried and tried to get rid of me from the front. Her aura was shaking, she was fearing that Dietrich would hurt me.
“Young lady really doesn’t know anything, young master. Please punish me.”
Marilyn’s face is full of determination but her aura clearly trembled with fear. I woke up again and approached her.
“Oppa, don’t kill malilin, uh?”
“You’re asking too much.”
Dietrich took a deep sigh after looking at Marilyn with me, whose face was red and warm.
‘I’m not a child, I have to live like an old man.’
“Young master, I was under the control of Liatriz. Really, you know Veronica’s devil.”
‘That It’s!’
It’s right. I nodded at Marilyn’s words and looked at Dietrich. He seemed to be troubled for a moment, but he opened his mouth slowly.
“I know.”
“But it really wasn’t my intention. I really like young lady.”
“Veronica’s devil is powerful. You can’t break hypnosis on your own.”
“Bu, but it’s-“
Marilyn looked up with a confused face with Dietrich’s words.
“I’ve always had a blank mind, now it’s clear. I think Veronica stopped control.”
I seemed to have solved it while purifying Marilyn’s aura. However, Dietrich frowned her eyebrows in disbelief.
‘Should I reveal that I have the power of Almighty Euradia?’
However, Anissa in the novel was revealed her ability and was immediately enslaved by Dietrich.
‘Oh, it’s stuffy.’
Dietrich hits his fist again as he hesitates and bit his lips. I was aware of the horrors that were all happening as soon as he moved his hand.
“……malilin, don’t be sad.”
I am twenty-two years olds. I stepped on the shadow crawling toward us and opened my mouth.
“I’m going to hate you, Oppa.”
Tears flowed out in perfect timing. Dietrich hated the baby crying.
“What?”
After all, it’s easier than I thought.
“I’ll hate you. My milk, no.”1
I bit my lips and glared at Dietrich. I added the sentence that I would hate him and hoped it would stop his actions.
“I know Baa and it’s yours.”
“Ha?”
This worked. Baal’s identity was a secret until Dietrich became the Grand Duke. Marilyn who never heard Baal’s name and didn’t know whose shadow it, shook her head and raised her voice when Dietrich’s shadow stopped.
“Please forgive me this time, young master! In the future, I’m not going to talk to Liatriz about the lady and young master!”
Marilyn didn’t imagine that Dietrich would accept it when she begged for forgiveness. Her hands-on the floor seemed to tramble violently.
“…… okay.”
But Dietrich easily accepted Marilyn’s words and put away the shadows.
‘Also, the secret of Baal has been swallowed!’
I was relieved and stroked Marilyn’s head.
***
Dietrich was unable to understand his behavior and then absorbing the shadow that was aimed at Marilyn’s neck. It was definitely his choice, but he doesn’t understand. This is the first time he has experienced it.
‘Why?’
He asked back to himself, but he can’t think of an answer to his question. Just suddenly, really suddenly, Dietrich got tired of dealing with Marilyn.
‘Is it because Anisa blocking at the front?’
Dietrich shook her head slowly as she watched Anissa who crying over to Marilyn.
‘No, it can’t be.’1
Anissa was just a sacrifice for the successor test. He doesn’t even think of it as a person, let alone a family.
‘I’m going to hate you, Oppa!’
It’s none of his business whether her pretty ruby eyes are dripping with tears or not.
‘I hate you.’
It was a childish threat to the point of laughter can burst. Can’t be digested at all.
But he felt a little disgusted. Dietrich left the room while looking sullenly at Anissa who didn’t even look at him.
