The Female Lead Raised The Villain Chapter 138

Twisted Truth (4)

Squeak!

She tossed and turned in the cool wind. She seemed to have fallen asleep in the bed when she fell asleep. When she struggled to open her eyes, she could see a shadow in front of her.

“… Nox?”

That can't be. No, was there a place he couldn't come?

Nox was the one looking at her. No one in this Imperial palace can enter her room without being noticed at night.

“I was going to see you for a second.”

“…You didn't want me to notice that you're here, did you?”

Seeing her say something he didn't really like, he's rusty. He shook his head and got up, and he kept his distance from her and stared at her without saying a word.

Nox's expression was not seen properly because he stood against the moonlight. It seemed that anyone who believed in God would believe that the glow around him had come down from heaven.

Nox's voice rang low. His long silvery hair fluttered little by little in the wind. In the chills that even felt creepy, she pulled a blanket around her.

“Why don't you stop coming into the room without telling me? Because it's unpleasant.”

She didn't want to give him any more affection, and he was enjoying her unhappiness. It may have been to see her endure to live since the first time he saved her.

Whether it was her or Arthur, she thought all of this was just a long term for Nox.

“Don't hate me so much. I'm also regretting it a little bit.”

That was unexpected. What does he regret? It was a word that didn't go well with him. At that moment, silence lingered in the room. Even if he regretted it now, nothing would have changed.

People should always be responsible for what they have done, and that's even a rusty thing to call a person.

“Why are you confessing that you regret it?”

“Ah. Doesn't it suit me as a devil?”

“God may forgive, but I am not God.”

She got out of bed and approached Knox. She reached out and poked her finger at his chest, solidifying her expression.

“If I had a heart, I would have cut it out with a knife.”

“I'm angry because I can't return the pain I've suffered.”

Nox grabbed her hand on his heart. She got goosebumps when she saw him staring at her with a calm look.

“If I could die in your hands, that wouldn't be bad either.”

Taking it to his lips, he kissed it lightly. She took out her hand and wiped it on her clothes.

“Don't touch me recklessly.”

He looked happy and smiling, and took a step closer to her. The relationship between the two, which was already close, narrowed. Nox, who faced his eyes with his upper body bent a little, said with his red eyes folded.

“Maybe Arthur feels the same way as me.”

Maybe that's the case. He wanted to die, so he wanted to escape from repeated life. When asked if he could die with her, he said he would do it without hesitation.

“Mary, you won't forgive Arthur, will you?”

“Just like you do to me.”

Can she forgive Arthur? She's not confident. She wanted to pull out those arrogant eyes that were penetrating her right away.

“Arthur came to me.”

That was what she expected. Since she heard that he met Nox, he would have gone to argue as a contractor. She doesn't care what the two of them talked about, and it means that it is useless to regret now.

She has no intention of forgiving him easily, but she won't move as they planned.

“Mary, you said you wanted to sign a contract with me, didn't you?”

“As long as you have a contract with Arthur, it's impossible”.

“That's right. That's why I used my hand. To have you.”

As soon as Nox's words were over, his soft hair stood on his whole body and anxiety wrapped around her. It is clear that he has done something. A deep smile spread on Knox's face when he saw her stiff expression.

“I think I need to touch what you value, so that you will respond.”

“… What?”

What she value? What is that? Does Knox know what she doesn't know?

Looking at her confused eyes, he moved away from her with satisfaction. She couldn't catch him. It was difficult to act recklessly, as it would be like acknowledging whatever it was.

He tried hard to hide his trembling voice in a calm voice and said.

“There's nothing precious about it. Do you think I made a weak point?”

“Well, maybe.”

His voice that it doesn't matter was divided, and it wasn't enough to test herself.

Light fluttered in red eyes. Looking at Nox's burning eyes as if to swallow them all, she thought she would be sucked in.

She really hates red, but she kept staring at his eyes.

“The story would have been easier if I had a doll, but it's already eliminated.”

“…Dolls?”

Is he talking about a doll that looks like her? She heard that Arthur had already taken care of it. Was it Knox who handled it, not Arthur? She couldn't understand him suddenly mentioning the same doll as her.

“That's what you wanted first. Mary.”

The window opened with Nox's horse approaching the window. Reflected by the light, he was still beautiful and cold. The corners of the mouth that went up with the hair blowing in the wind still looked pleasant.

“I've never wanted anything like this.”

“Ah, the contract with me.”

“Because I thought you were the only one who could save me, but not now.”

There is no reason to join hands with Nox as long as she knows that she is living because of a contract. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have had to live with this pain in the first place.

Forced by Arthur…… she wouldn't have had to love.

Even if it wasn't Arthur, she might have died of love.

“I hope it's not a weakness. I hope nothing is precious to you.”

Like that, Nox became the wind in front of her eyes and disappeared. She ran away from sleep with her throbbing head. Eventually, she stayed up all night with her eyes open.
