The Tyrant Covets The S*ave Chapter 20

It was like Beher was baptized with holy water. If she used her power, her identity would be revealed.

 

It might even affect the contract. But how long does she have to live with this?

 

Why does she have to put up with this? She didn't want to be beaten when she had so much power but couldn't do anything about it.

 

'I don't want to live in suffocation.'

 

As water soaked into Beher's hair, suddenly, poof! And then it shone brightly with light. A clear blue stream of water circled around Beher.

 

There was a breeze around her. Lucy stepped back in surprise and looked at Beher.

 

'No way.'

 

Lucy was well aware of this power. It was a power that even her brother was afraid to use very often. The color was a little different, but she had seen the red flame rise.

 

Beher was now using spirit magic.

 

She didn't realize how powerful it was. Lucy had a hard time opening her eyes because of the strong wind.

 

The same was true for the ladies who had come to mess with Beher.

 

“What the hell? What the hell is this?”

 

“Ahh… let's get out of here! Open the door quickly!”

 

One of them tried to open the door, but at that moment, she heard an ominous “crunch” sound. She was startled. But Beher laughed.

 

“What is this… this!”

 

They clenched their lips and trembled with fear, as if they could not comprehend the situation they were in. Then they saw a figure spouting blue water.

 

“Grand Duchess! What the hell is this!”

 

The lady, without knowing what she had done and acting abominably, Beher looked down at her coldly.

 

The water figure Beher had summoned swirled around. The summoned water spirit was furious and lashed out. The glass bottles that had been decorated around it broke.

 

“Please! Let us go!”

 

“No!”

 

 

“You come into my room without permission to bully me, and now you want to leave. Isn't that just too selfish?”

 

The water figure spun more violently. Then it reached out and splashed the water on the ladies.

 

It was only a few drops, but they screamed as if they had been hit by a bomb. It was a strange sight indeed. Beher didn't mean to go this far, but they touched something they shouldn't have.

 

“Are you angry with me because I'm not noble? Because I stole your seat?”

 

“…..please!

 

Beher flooded their heads with water. Then one by one was let go.

 

“Oh, no! I'm sorry!”

 

There were no words to describe how wet their entire bodies were. The spilled makeup and dresses turned into rags. They all looked like wet rats.

 

“Who am I?”

 

Beher had to remind them who she was. If she allowed them to be ignorant from the start, it would be an obstacle later on.

 

“You're Young Lady Rike…”

 

Beher didn't like the reply. She spewed water on the girls again. And she broke the nearby lamp.

 

Crash!

 

“Ahhhh!”

 

They knelt down, holding each other in horror.

 

“Say it again. Who am I?”

 

“Grand Duchess Rike.”

 

“Whose wife am I?”

 

“The wife of Grand Duke Lucai. Please, please forgive me. ….”

 

They sobbed. Beher wanted to scare them more. But it seemed like the girls would faint if she did.

 

“……Please, please forgive me.”

 

Beher deliberately pretended to be annoyed. She didn't enjoy being the villain, but it wasn't bad.

 

“Please! Grand Duchess! My family is skilled in trade. I'm sure it will be useful. Um…I didn't know Your Highness was so good with magic. Please spare my life…”

 

Since wizards were precious, it may be good to think of the spirit as magic.

 

“You'll keep it a secret that I use magic. Yes? Ladies?”

 

They might be the emperor's watchers. But right now, she was okay with only Lucai.

 

 

 

“Yes… of course! I swear it with my life!”

 

'I will remember that promise very carefully. Keep in mind that if you violate it, your head will fly off before anyone knows it.”

 

“I will bear it well in mind!”

 

Seeing the girls trembling in horror made her feel somewhat tired. She wanted to pass it quietly, but she felt disappointed that she couldn't.

 

If Lucai finds out about this…well, it wouldn't matter. The Grand Duke knew she could use magic anyway.

 

Beher left the girls and headed for the reception hall.

 

“Lady, is it all right?”

 

“What do you mean?”

 

Beher asked, pretending not to know, though she knew what Lucy was talking about.

 

“…… Um, you're not supposed to use your powers.”

 

“It's okay.”

 

“But still….”

 

“Grand Duke knows I'm a wizard. So do others. Unless the substance of my power is revealed, no one will know that I am a spiritist.”

 

“The substance of your power?”

 

Beher rarely took out the source of her power. If someone saw it, they might try to use her power. Also, she could lose even a ray of light.

 

“I'll show you later, Lucy. I think you'll probably be surprised.”

 

“What is it? What is it? Can you show me?”

 

Before she knew it, Lucy spoke excitedly. She seemed to be curious about Beher's power.

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

 

“Next time, when it's really safe. I'll show you then. Rond didn't show it to you, did he?”

 

“My brother was afraid to use his powers. In fact, he once set himself on fire because he couldn't handle it properly…”

 

Lucy spoke in a pained tone.

Beher knew very well why she had a sad expression on her face.

 

Among the four spirit masters, fire was the most powerful. It would be too much to handle to use that power.

 

Even she, who had inherited the power from Ron, felt a bit scared. In fact, Beher had used the power of fire only once.

 

She used the power precariously while running away from the Vitan imperial army. An explosion occurred, and her energy dropped drastically. It was more difficult to handle than water and seemed to need a bit of practice.

 

It was a power that she would definitely have to learn to use against her father. Beher clenched her fists and stared at the reception hall in the distance.

 

Many people were enjoying today's event.

 

 

“Ben.”

 

“Yes, Your Highness.”

 

“What about Beher?”

 

Lucai, who had been receiving wishes alone from the people, waited for Beher, who had not yet arrived. They would believe that they loved each other and were married only if they could see them going together.

 

Therefore, Beher was an indispensable protagonist.

 

“She said she was going to change her clothes and would be here soon. Should I go check it out?”

 

Ben looked around and whispered to Lucai.

 

“I went there.”

 

“Say it.”

 

Actually, Ben had already checked out what Beher was doing before Lucai spoke. He heard a scream through the door. Beher and Lucy came out of the room. He sneaked in and checked the room and saw the ladies were soaked in water and in tears.

 

He asked them if something was wrong, but they shook their heads as if frightened. He quickly sent the ladies home because he was worried something might happen if people saw it.

 

'How should I explain this?'

 

“Um… sir.”

 

“A dog that serves its master only needs to obey orders.”

 

“I misspoke. To tell you the truth…”

 

Ben told Lucai everything he had seen. Ben thought he would be very angry, but Grand Duke Lucai showed no sign of it. Rather, he gulped down the wine in one gulp, as if it were interesting.

 

“The main character will come to tell the story. Huh, it's interesting.”

 

 

When Beher appeared, all eyes were focused on her for a moment. It seemed that they had been waiting for the moment when the only Grand Duchess in the empire appeared.

 

“Why is she using the veil?”

 

“Rumor has it that she's so beautiful that His Highness the Grand Duke deliberately covered her with it.”

 

Beher walked through the people. Not knowing that it was her and Lucai's plan to spread the rumor, they were simply impressed.

 

She saw a man standing at that end. He was her husband, shining brighter than anyone else. It was only temporary, but he was truly handsome that she was possessed for a moment.

 

“You're here.”

 

“Shouldn't I be the one next to you?”

 

Beher said it like it was natural. Then Lucai's eyes seemed to widen a little, and he immediately regained his composure.

 

“That's why it's worth waiting for.”

 

 

Lucai gently kissed Beher on the cheek. Even though it was a kiss across the veil, it was enough to make her hot.

 

“You are so beautiful.”

 

“I'm glad you like it.”

 

“Will you dance with me?”

 

Lucai politely asked Beher to dance with him. The sight was unfamiliar to her, not the Grand Duke she knew. She resisted the urge to tell him that he was the true comedian.

 

“Very well.”

 

Beher stood in the middle of the banquet, led by Lucai. Everyone could only watch breathlessly as the Grand Duke and his wife danced.

 

Lucai's hands gripped Beher's waist tightly. He led the dance naturally. Then he hugged her more.

 

“It's too close….”

 

It was really uncomfortable to be stuck so tightly. It was a deliberate move by the Grand Duke.

 

“While you were away, you caused a decent accident.”

 

 

The beautiful sound of the violin was muffled. Lucai knew what she had done.

 

'Who in the world told him?'

 

Beher looked over Lucai's shoulder at Ben, who stood silently.

 

“I forgot for a while that Ben was your person.”

 

It was too imminent a time to think that Lucy had told the Grand Duke. Lucy was so attached to her that she had no time to report.

On top of that, Lucy had vowed to be like her family.

 

“Do you agree?”

 

“I have nothing to hide.”

 

“I didn't know you're this bold. Didn't your parents tell you that magic should be hidden?”

 

'They don't care. My power is for me to use when I want to use it.”

 

“Do you know that?”

 

 

Lucai asked then paused for a moment. Beher grabbed his shoulders anxiously. They reached the peak of their performance.

 

“I've learned some interesting facts about you.”

 

 

“Why were you being hunted by the Vitan Imperial Army? They weren't just ordinary soldiers, they were the Order directly under the Emperor.”

 

Beher's eyes widened and shook greatly.
