Chapter 125
12. There was only one road from the beginning.
Lucian held her loose body from his arms tightly and sucked in as if licking everything her lips touched.
Why was her body so sweet?
He endured for the sake of her body, which seemed uncomfortable, but his promise, which was weaker than glass, was easily broken when Rachel touched his ear as if to seduce him first.
Then, he examined the traces he had engraved with eyes that seemed possessed. Not to mention the nape of her neck, the layers of traces from her shoulders to her back looked like a red rose falling on a field of pure white snow.
In particular, the place Lucian liked the most and left the most traces was the area where her mole was located. He admitted he’d been stuck in a bit of an odd spot.
As he gently rubbed the area with his fingertips, he made Rachel’s pained noise.
“Since you couldn’t sleep…”
He knew she couldn’t sleep through the nights. There was no way he would leave her alone after she disappeared in the middle of the night in the first place.
It was just that he didn’t go into her room because he thought she would be uncomfortable, but Lucian was guarding the front of her room every night. Even though he sensed every sign of her trying not to fall asleep, he didn’t go into the room.
If he went in, he would have to ask about the events that day. He might be questioning why she left the mansion… still, he kept his mouth shut.
“I’m sorry, Ray. I didn’t even know I was so cowardly.”
He murmured as he kissed her face and ear briefly.
“No, I don’t know a little bit.”
A coward, he was afraid of the words that would come out of her mouth, so he didn’t ask why, and he didn’t want to know the cause.
After all, wasn’t she by his side now?
Wouldn’t it be enough to put her in the deep blue eyes with the same affection?
As he peered endlessly at Rachel in his arms, he took a deep breath in, occupying it into his body. A refreshing and sweet body scent soon filled his nostrils. The feeling of flesh sticking was dizzying. He has never tried it, but would it feel like this if he took an aphrodisiac that he had only heard about?
Lucian thought hard about it, it was not normal for him to only see her and his mind became hazy. Why did it matter, that kind of thing?
It didn’t matter if others pointed out that it wasn’t normal.
…Her world was him, and he was her world.
It was enough to live as an indispensable existence to each other, and only as a unique existence. There was never a single time when he wanted to see other people’s eyes or other people’s opinions from the beginning.
Elliot was on his way to the Emperor’s office with a bored face. He could tell the reason he was called without asking.
The Emperor would shamelessly ask for the power of the spirit while not giving him what he wanted.
“I can never give it to them.”
Even in his hometown, at the bottom of the empire, there were no people who did not know the law of equivalent exchange.
With a higher level of education, why did the imperial family and nobles not know such an easy thing?
Are they just a bunch of idiots?
“Kuku…”
Elliot struggled to hold back the laugh that leaked out.
While he didn’t really like living in the imperial family, dealing with stupid nobles was relatively enjoyable. Among them, the funniest thing was Lucian, whom he had recently met. The one who seemed to be quiet suddenly went to look for him.
The guy who had only glared at Elliot had disrupted his workplace.
Fortunately, he didn’t think Lucian was able to dig up the information, though other fields suffered such a terrible loss that he had to close his business for the time being. Warehouses filled with human trafficking slave traders and various drugs distributed through illegal routes were all incinerated.
“Tsk.”
He was upset because those were two places with good sales, but since he couldn’t catch Elliot himself, the Duke must have been upset as well.
Still, he had to give back as much as he suffered.
To this day, if the Emperor didn’t give him what he wanted, he intended to come forward himself. He kidnapped the woman once, there was no reason why he couldn’t do it twice.
“Your Majesty, the Prince has arrived.”
As the door opened at the chief attendant’s call, Elliot entered the office with a dignified step.
“Right, the Prince is here?”
“Yes, father. Good morning.”
“Haha, yes. The wind is especially cool today.”
He carefully observed the Emperor, who greeted him with a different, more comfortable face than usual.
It was not him who was pressed for time. So lately, whenever the Emperor saw him, his eyes would tremble. While the Emperor had to put the power of the spirit back into the sealing stone, Elliot didn’t let it go easily, so he was anxious.
To think that the Emperor greeted him with such a comfortable smile…
…No way?
“Prince.”
“Yes, father.”
Elliott replied with a face unable to hide his anticipation. Seeing his appearance, the Emperor snorted inside. He only complicated things by saying that he would keep his loyalty to the previous Duke for no reason.
Being the son of a traitor would not change anyway, so what was the previous Duke thinking?
Wasn’t it like covering the sky with the palm of their hand?
He should wait for a while before dealing with the Erland family and then formally welcoming the prince’s wife. It may be noisy, but since he was a member of the imperial family, no one would be able to touch him.
“I have work to do for you. It will be to wipe out the traitors. Can you do it?”
“Yes, just leave it to me.”
The Emperor showed a benevolent smile, then changed his expression to a solemn one and gave orders.
“Listen, Prince. Let the traitors who oppose the imperial family show their true colors!”
After the Emperor’s order was finished, the chief attendant handed over the imperial edict. Elliott raised his eyes when he saw the family name written on the edict.
Erland family.
It was the family of that woman, and also the family of the person who instigated the woman to be kidnapped.
“Especially Count Erland is something the prince should find out for himself. First of all, we can catch those who we were sure of.”
Hearing his words, Elliot quietly raised his gaze.
A clear blade stood in the purple eyes. Certainly, Count Erlando was a bastard. After all, even the Emperor didn’t know where the Count was. There must be one reason why all these troublesome things were passed on to him.
Elliot smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the name on the paper.
Rachel de Erland.
He understood exactly what it meant to capture her, who no longer belonged to the Leon family. Elliot held up the edict while narrowly smirking.
“I will obey Your Majesty’s orders.”
The Emperor hurriedly grabbed Elliot, who politely bowed and turned his back.
“Well, Prince.”
“Yes, father.”
The corners of the eyes, which were narrowly curved, looked mysterious. The Emperor made a hint with an uncomfortable heart.
“First, I want you to keep your promise to me.”
Elliot laughed inside at the Emperor’s words.
When he found out the Emperor was his own father, he honestly couldn’t believe it. He thought he knew himself better than anyone else, though to be a member of the imperial family.
It didn’t make sense.
But now, more than anyone else, he realized that he was a member of the royal family. Did he say blood was thicker than water? His own serpentine tendencies must have been inherited from the Emperor. He sat still and responded in a bleak voice to the man who betrayed his loyalist.
“I will keep my promise if I get the Lady first.”
“…You will have to hurry.”
“Of course, father. I always keep my promises.”
“….”
Eliot’s words made the Emperor feel uncomfortable. Pretending not to see it, Eliot hurriedly left the office.
The Emperor was his father, but he was truly vicious.
It was such a huge deal to have an imperial edict issued. Undoubtedly, the Emperor did nothing in compiling a list of traitors. Looking at it like this, he really felt sorry for the previous Duke. What was even more pitiful was that the previous Duke must dedicate the daughter he cherished so much.
Duke Leon must have already known this. He wouldn’t have been able to hide it from the previous Duke, who was superior in ability to the Emperor.
So, to keep the promise first.
Shouldn’t he raid the place before the current Duke hid the woman?
As Elliot climbed into the carriage, he sent a note to Noah with a spirit. Even Count Erland, who hid his face and was in hiding, must be caught perfectly to make the ownership over that woman even stronger.
At that time, Noah, who was training at the baron’s training ground, noticed something wriggling under the shadows and quickly tried to throw his sword.
However, the black shadow quickly disappeared, leaving only a small piece of paper in its place.
“This…”
Recalling that the prince often contacted him, he grumbled and picked up the note that had fallen to the floor.
“What else is he going to do…”
He had no choice but to move as he was told, but Noah, no, Kylus was irritated.
The contents of the note were concise.
⌈ Immediately raid the information dealers and arrest the informants. ⌋
“Hmm…”
Dealing with the note properly, Kylus hurried back to his room to change his clothes.
“By the way, which family’s ability was the illusion ability?”
Now, many of his family’s unique abilities have disappeared, but when he was alive, he could easily meet magicians who used various abilities. Kylus, whose memory seemed to be fading away, was hardened by the foreknowledge that occupied his head in an instant.
