Chapter 105

Ran muttered without realizing it.

"Why are you so hostile to me?"

Olivia looked at Ran with burning eyes and said.

"You really don't know why? You hurt my pride, Ran Romia. How dare you, the daughter of a lowly aristocrat, or the daughter of a prostitute-"

The late woman hurt her pride.

Didn't your name become a laughing stock in society?

Olivia had a strong sense of self-esteem and, above all, couldn't forgive Ran for hurting her.

"Without you, I would have been the best. You made me do this."

"What did I do?"

"You seduced my husband."

"What the-"

"And the Empress will be on your side-"

She came close and said, pushing Lan hard.

"And to swallow the Duke of Lazia?"

Ran fell into the water with a thud.

"Ran!"

Several men rushed and caught Eustaf trying to jump in.

Because her hands were tied, Ran had no choice but to swim with her feet, and there was a limit to wearing a dress.

Ran threw her head down into the water and coughed with a painful face. It goes down to the surface and comes up desperately, but it takes longer to go down.

Olivia looked down at Ran with such a happy face and said,

"I'll give you a hospitality that suits your place."

Then Olivia turned to Eustaf and said,

"What do you think? Say that you're mine now. It's not too late."

Olivia added,

"When I become Duchess of Lazia, I will be more prosperous than she is now. What do you think? Besides, as you know from my plan, Ran's no longer useful? Aren't I more beautiful?"

"Why?"

As soon as Olivia's face hardened by Eustaf's question, a sharp whistle came from inside the forest, and Eustaf repeatedly cursed.

Olivia got up from her seat and looked around.

"What the-"

Then an arrow flew in and hit the man who grabbed Ran's leash.

Ran quickly sucked in the water and was dragged under the water because of the heavy dress. Breathtaking, Ran recalled the full moon.

A round, bright full moon.

Then I thought it was okay how it was. My heart is sinking deep.

Then someone grabbed her waist and her whole body was lifted to the surface.

"Cough, cough, Cough--"

Eustaf pulled her coughing up onto the dock.

"Ran, Ran."

His voice was so sweet that Ran coughed and tried to smile.

"Master!"

Ran blinked as she heard a familiar voice.

Lumiere's clear scarlet hair came into view.

Eustaf gritted his teeth and said, "It's late."

"I'm sorry."

Lumiere said so and carefully hugged Ran. Eustaf said.

"You're out of battle. I'll take care of the rest."

"Yes."

He bowed politely and quickly moved on to Lumiere. Eustaf reached out his hand over the river and said, "Serekar."

A shining sword through the surface of the water flew in as if it were being sucked into his hand. The Dwarf black, made of nadium, responded steadily to the owner's call. Next to him, the first of Nok-young came and stood.

"How many are there?"

"About twenty."

"Really? Don't kill them cleanly."

"Understand."

That's what the first said and bowed his head, and Eustaf stabbed the man who grabbed Ran's leash, who was crushed by an arrow.

"Argh!"

Despite the terrible screams, Eustaf did not care. By the time the struggle stopped, Eustaf hit the opponent's neck.

Olivia came into her eyes. She was seen fleeing under the protection of guards inside the forest.

Eustaf grinned.

Nok-young's second -

Kara got goosebumps on her back.

She actually wanted to nag.

'What if the Lord gets caught with you? What are you going to do with Lazia's mess?'

But if I said it now, I knew right away that her neck would fly away.

The lord is clearly angry with herself now. It is just expressing anger there because the enemy is in front of us.

Until now, even if the enemy was killed, he has never been so cruel.

Kara rolled her eyes and said, "Can I go and protect Mrs. Ran?"

Eustaf gestured for her to go without even looking back, and Kara came out of there with a cap.

'First, cheer up.' With such mourning.

Kara escaped the battle and caught up Capsage with Ran and Lumiere.

She opened her mouth when she saw Ran.

'This is something you might get mad at.'

"Are you all right, Earl?"

At Kara's words, Lan looked at her, saying, "Kara ·····?"

Kara, dressed in dark-colored combat attire, caught my eye- catching. It was unfamiliar to me, but I thought this was her true self.

"Don't you have to go help Eustaf?"

"The man who stands before the Lord now must be a foolish man."

"But Eustaf was injured ·······."

"Don't worry, he has a miller than a lady."

Ran coughed again. Blood came out of her palm and Lumiere said, feeling like she was going to collapse.

"Have you suffered internal injuries?"

I wanted to speak calmly, but my hoarse voice came out.

"No, I just hurt my neck...."

Ran's voice was also hoarse. Kara said,

"Don't speak. I think it's because it's pulled on the leash."

Ran nodded and answered and buried her tired head on Lumiere's shoulder.

He spoke more comfortably of her.

"They'll be there soon."

"Where?"

To Ran's little murmur, Kara answered instead.

"They came here by boat, too. Oh, I can see it!"

Ran just turned her eyes to the words. A ship bigger than I thought stood where the eyes met.

As soon as Lumiere got on the ship, Dimodia greeted her.

"Oh my God, my lady!"

Dimodia looked at Kara without knowing what to do, and Kara asked,

"The therapist?"

"It's in."

"Hurry up and get her."

It was a very luxurious ship, and although small, the bedroom and living room were separated separately. As soon as Ran sat in the living room, Dimodia kicked Lumiere out and began to undress Ran. Ran said a little restless.

"Well, Dia·····."

"Is everything all right? Go ahead!"

"...a physiological phenomenon······."

Ran murmured quietly with a red face. Dimodia said, "Ah," and quickly led Lan to the bathroom.

Ran seemed to have become even more sick, perhaps because she was relaxed after her business was over.

When she came out of the bathroom, the waiting therapist saw Ran and tightened her head.

"Let me take a look."

Ran nodded and asked Dimodia.

"Dia, the full moon-?"

"Yes?"

"No, how long till the full moon? I don't know the time."

Dimodia looked at Ran's head wound and said carefully.

"There are about 12 days left. What's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing."

Ran shook his head. Everyone would stop to stop her if she spoke.

But you shouldn't. You must fly up.

Meanwhile, the therapist said after examining Ran's wounds.

"You'd better wash up first."

"That's good to hear."

Ran smiled faintly and said.

"But can you wash it off?"

When Ran approached, Kara said, "Of course," and added Ran.

The therapist splinted Ran's ankle, so the pain was a little less.

Dimodia and Kara carefully washed Ran's body. She took the hard blood off her hair and washed away the dirty wounds.

I thought it was a luxury to be able to wash from a boat. Dimodia bit her lips when she saw Ran's black and blue neck.

"I should have gone to the party with you.", said Dimodia.

"But it wasn't like taking a maid."

Ran soothed her, and Dimodia shook her head.

"No, I would have gone with you even if I was looked at."

Kara nodded and carefully rubbed Ran's body with a foam- filled sponge.

"Your arm will be scarred ·····."

Dimodia said, looking at the wound on her arm, which had already been scabbed, and Ran said.

"It's okay. It's okay because I'am alive."

Kara brought scissors and said,

"I'm going to cut your hair short. That's how I can sew it.

Ran groaned.

"Cut..."

"I can't see the other hair because it's long. All right, stay calm."

Kara said so and cut Ran's hair short to make the wound visible. Ran was depressed when she saw a handful of hair cut.

'No, the full moon will come up in a little while.'

So she soothed herself and ran out of the bathtub.

The waiting therapist applied ointment to Ran's whole body.

There were bruises all over the fall, stitches in the arm, and wetting the legs.

Because of the pull of the leash, there was a bruise around the neck like a band, so the therapist carefully treated the wounds around the neck.

"You'd better not talk. I think you hurt your neck too."

Ran nodded, thinking that it tasted like blood while coughing. When I carefully overlapped my clothes on top of it, I felt relieved.

Soon Lumiere came in with a meal. The smell of the food suddenly made Ran feel hungry, so she picked up the hot bread and whispered.

"How long have I been caught? I'm not sure because I'm losing my mind in the middle."

Even if she spoke quietly, everyone understood.

"It's been three days."

Ran eyes wide open at Lumiere's explanation.

"It's been so long?!"

My voice grew louder by itself and I coughed softly, and Lumiere frowned.

"Don't use your throat."

But Ran was absurd, so she spoke small and fast, with her neck relaxed.

"What, so I've been losing my mind for two days...?"

Eustaf deserved to worry.

"What about the others? What about Sina?"

"Sina is waiting in the green arch. Thanks to her, it was easy to find."

"Thanks to Sina?"

"She followed after Master. She cut off the hem of her dress from time to time, leaving a trail."

"Really? Sina followed me ·······."

"What the hell happened?"

Ran sighed and said to Lumiere's interrogation.

"The Empress asked me to race with her, so ·····."

Lumiere frowned upon hearing the story.

"Are you saying the Empress was manipulated?"

"Maybe so."

Ran said so, throwing the last bread into her mouth, relaxed and lay down like she was falling down on the sofa.

"But it's gonna work out. You don't have to worry about that anymore."

Lumiere sat on her armrest and said, gently sweeping her still-dry hair.

"You're going to leave my heart alone, Master."

Ran raised her head and smiled bashfully.

"So you don't like it?"

Lumiere wrinkled his eyes, pulled her face lightly, and let her go.

"If you're going to hate it like this, you've hated it before."

Lumiere's face got a little dark after talking. Ran lifted her upper body.

"What's the matter?"

"It's not the time for you to worry about me."

Lumiere smiled crossly, erasing her worries.

"Get well. I heard from the therapist that it takes you a long time to get well."

"It's a bruise."

"Those who sew their heads don't say that."

"I agree."

Speaking loudly, Dimodia came in with the medicine and said.

"You're still okay with the painkillers, but in time, the stitches will hurt. Now, take your medicine and go sleep tight."

"What about Eustaf?"

At Ran's question, Dimodia answered,

"He'll come later."

Ran mumbled after thinking for a while.

"Will Eus kill Olivia?"

Dimodia paused and said in an angry tone.

"Then do you want him to forgive her?"

"No, not really."

But I don't want Eustaf to kill Olivia....

It's not that I didn't want Olivia to die, but I didn't want Eustaf to kill someone.

Ran sighed.

There's no point in saying this.

Since you are from the other side of the world, you don't need any sense left here.

In Korea, if a boyfriend hired a murder contractor to kill his boss for bullying his lover, the sound of "Run away" will come out naturally, but not here.

It's a natural world to die and die.

'Well, I've been sentenced to death before.'

Ran has taken heart.

"Take your medicine first."

Dimodia shoeed a terrible green-flavored medicine, and Ran quickly swallowed it and drank water.

Dimodia said firmly.

"Now, brush your teeth and go to bed."

Feeling like a child being admonished, Ran answered, "Yes." Then she washed up and lay down on the bed as if she were falling.

And I really experienced what it means to fall asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow.
