‘Outside.’
Come to think of it, he heard that the princess wanted to see the market earlier. Blanchett Street is the market she wants to go to. It was the largest and most colorful place in the capital. It was too complicated for the princess to go to. Therefore, Rox and Ripley objected. Cain was on the same page as them.
‘Not Sir Volton, though. He said, what right do we have to stop her Highness from wanting to go?’
Few people knew that the princess was terminally ill. The people of the Imperial Palace may have noticed something, but they were firmly silent, and there were a few others that Rox had told about it.
At the same as protecting the princess, it was a threat to her. I mean, there are only a few people who can be considerate of her condition inside the Imperial Palace. While at the market…? But….
“No matter how much I think about it…….”
The voice of the Princess, who was about to cry, hit his ear. Cain clenched his fist and loosened it. He finally stepped out because he felt something unbearable.
‘Let me tell you how dangerous it’d be.’
The princess’ heart probably wants to see the world even a little more not that she doesn’t have much time left. Even though he saw her here, the duke wanted to persuade the princess. However….
“It’s a beautiful night.”
At the moment he met that sweet smiley face to face, the princess called him: “Your Grace.”
Unknown words continued quietly: “Your Grace the Duke don’t get hurt or die anywhere. Got it?”
He stared at the princess without realizing it. He didn’t know how to react. He didn’t have much memory of getting hurt. And no one was worried that Cain would get hurt or killed.
It has been like that since his childhood, so this situation was very unfamiliar to him. Strange. The princess was sincerely hoping for his wellbeing. But at the moment he met the princess’ affectionate purple eyes he couldn’t bring up any word of what he had intended to say to her.
“Your Highness, what do you mean?”
So he just asked her. The princess didn’t hesitate much and continued: “It’s just… I hope you stay healthy as long as you’re with me.”
Her smile, which was so bright that the moonlight looked cloudy ion comparison, momentarily distorted as if crying. It was a quiet time. It was a time too lonely to hide her heart with brightness, so the princess looked sad even when she smiled. Somehow, he wanted to hear anything from her now because of it. Anything about his long-harbored hatred.
“Can I tell you an old story?”
The child, who was abandoned right after birth, could not be proud of the hatred he harbored in his heart. Even though it’s obvious that he’s the victim. It was an impulsive question. Actually, he was thinking of cutting her off. Because she was getting too close to him. Whether she intended to do so or not. He thought it was a useless connection to the vampire bloodline.
“I think the child needs to get away from their friend.”
He forgot to manage his expression for a moment. Looking at him with shaky eyes, the princess said in a clear voice: “They have to run away from it before they lose more of their blood, flesh and heart. They shouldn’t have given it to their friend in the first place. True friends would never ask for those things.”
It was quite unexpected, but it was a natural train of thought. Yeah, that’s right.
His heart began to loosen up one by two. While several layers of his heart loosened, her little smile and her eyes caught his eye. The little smile was warm, and the warm eyes were sad. The sadness brought Cain back to his senses. At that moment he changed his mind.
“Your Highness.”
“Yes?”
“Tomorrow, Sir Volton and I will accompany you.”
He might get attached to her. It would be painful to get attached to Leticia who didn’t have much time left. He knew about it, but it was too late to cut her and his affection for her off. It may be because no one ever has appeared in Cain’s life and filled it with so much warmness selflessly.
Even his mother didn’t worry about him dying. So he didn’t want her to die as well. If not, he hoped there wouldn’t be any pain before she dies.
‘If that’s not possible, I’d rather you do what you want to now.’
So please don’t suffer all by yourself and laugh more sincerely, even if only a little.
“No matter what happens, it will go your way.”
The princess’ eyes trembled pitifully.
‘As long as life goes on, I will be by your side.’1
“Tomorrow, you’ll be able to go out as wanted.”1
If you have trouble doing so, it is to me, or to us to clean up. I’ll watch over you like that.
“…… of course.”
Cain unwittingly clasped one hand firmly. That’s because he suddenly thought about it. Now he’s thinking of letting her live as happily as possible before she dies, but one day she may not be able to think of her death as calmly as she does now. That’s a sure thought.
‘No, there’s no problem.’
Even if that’s the case, doesn’t one know that death comes to everyone?
“Tomorrow, you’ll be able to go your way.”

Cain reached out his hand to Leticia and she took it.
And the next day. Rox and Ripley finally trembled and raised the white flag at the persuasion of the two together.
༻﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡﹡༺
Whoo! Whoo!
I almost screamed out of joy. Happiness always comes after sadness!
I hugged Rox with a big smile at the news of his permission to go out this morning. Naturally, I also hugged Eugene and Cain once. It was a gentle hug, so both had a subtle expression on their faces. But it’s a given. Even if I could touch them, I didn’t have the courage to touch the precious original characters.
But I feel good! I’m the embodiment of a great will. Even when excited like this, I wouldn’t forget to fill myself up through my selfish desires! Humming such words inside, I tried my best to express my joy as a princess on the outside. But I guess it didn’t work.
“Are you that happy?”, asked Eugene, who was watching me, with a smile.
I nodded my head: “Of course. Oh! Are you two going together?”
“Yes”, replied Cain to my question.
So I asked Emma: “Emma, will you prepare commoner’s clothes for them?”
Emma grinned and made such clothes appear instantly. Even the right size.
“Emma, you’re the best! Now, you two change into these!”
“You are thorough, Your Highness”, said Eugene, who picks up the clothes, in a strange way.
I looked at him with a proud look. Eugene’s habitual smile was slightly blurred. His mysterious gaze made me just giggle.
Eugene said again, removing the subtle metaphors: “In fact, it’s all thanks to your Grace, the Duke of Irick.”
“Hm?”
“How earnestly he was yesterday.”
“Volton”, called Cain Eugene softly as I tilted in wonder. Eugene grinned and raised his hands to mark his surrender.
What is this?
Then I looked at Cain, who seemed to be a little excited today. He was always shy, so it’s hard to see many emotions on his face. Humm.
“Huh…?”
Then when I was surprised, Eugene followed my gaze with a curious look. Then he exclaimed a surprised: “Oh.”
No way, that shy man is… Oh my God… Cain was awkwardly raising the corners of his mouth. So cute! Beautiful! Lovely! I was overwhelmed right then.
And…
“Gasp!”
“Your Highness!”
“What’s wrong with you?”
Rinny and Irene, who were standing on one side smiling, came running in concerned and helped me. Rinny and Irene. This unnie has no regrets even if she dies now.
“Your Highness…! Blood, blood!”
I love it… I smiled happily. By the way, a handsome man’s concerned face hits also differently. There’s no way out! Even the harmony of black and white was perfect.
“Oh my God, Rox! Hurry!”
In the end, I was knocked out just like that.
Thanks to this, the outing was postponed for two days, but it didn’t matter. Instead, I decided to solve Cain’s problem, which I had delayed for now, right away. That smile made me realize that he had opened his heart to me enough to proceed.
In fact, Cain was the sub male lead, who easily fell in love with the heroine Ariel after Eugene. The scene where he fell in love with Ariel was very Ariel-like, but it was somewhat pitiful for Cain.

“It’s about time you tackle that problem.”
Let’s get to a point where he wouldn’t risk his life for Ariel. Hehe. I’m glad it’s going well. With a big smile, I fell asleep.
And the next day, I woke up early in the morning and headed straight to Cain.
X1: This part is quiet puzzling, because in the last chapter Cain said: “Tomorrow, you’ll be able to go out as wanted”, while in this one he said: “As long as life goes on, I will be by your side.” Because of this I made one his thoughts and the other one I inserted as what he’s actually saying out loud.
