Chapter 134
Cassandra looked dismayed at Lucian’s question, a bit taken aback.
She had barely come out after a long time, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she met him. Still, how did he find out that she was someone else right away? Geez, she had to siphon off his fortune, as Dustin said, but what could she do now?
Lucian was equally confused when he saw Rachel staring at him from below with a confused face.
Since the outward appearance was the same, he couldn’t easily respond. It was the same Rachel, whom he loved so he didn’t know what to do.
“I don’t know what you mean, brother.”
However, one thing was for sure… Rachel didn’t even call him brother anymore.
“…I’m tired these days, so my nerves are on edge. I’m sorry.”
“…No.”
Lucian then hugged her tightly.
Cassandra, who was suddenly dragged away by him, tried to pretend nothing was wrong while swallowing curses.
As they lay on their sides, looking in one direction. He held her tightly with his eyes shining sharply behind her, which she couldn’t see. His arms, which held her tightly to keep her from escaping, were full of strength. He thought furiously about what to do with the situation.
On the other hand, Cassandra, clumsily cradled in his arms, also couldn’t hide her embarrassment. She wondered why she was with Enzo’s descendant.
‘No, this d*mn thing… what happened to the two of them without me knowing?’
In the current situation, which anyone can tell for sure, she only chewed her lips to swallow the curse.
‘Where am I again? It doesn’t look my the original room… have I been sleeping that long? I will rip those lowly things limb from limb before I really abandon this body…!’
The last memory was of the fox shapeshifter absorbing the red orb. Just remembering that time, Cassandra couldn’t overcome her anger and gnashed her teeth, then bit her lips in surprise. Soon, his large hand came from behind her and grabbed her chin.
She couldn’t breathe in his grip, which was quite strong for holding the woman he loved.
“Shh, you can’t do that carelessly.”
His tone was very sweet, yet the light in his eyes was fierce.
‘Do I have to hurt something that isn’t even my body?’
“I, I will be careful… but aren’t you going to work?”
Cassandra, who wanted him to get out quickly, asked, and Lucian replied casually.
“I’ll go when you fall asleep.”
“….”
She could no longer control her expression at his reply. How could she, as she was lying in vain like this, and couldn’t go anywhere?
Even though she rolled her eyes to grasp the surroundings, he pulled her one more time.
“Go to sleep.”
‘This tenacious Enzo-like guy! Guess he really is his descendant…!’
Holding her tightly in his arms, Cassandra had no choice but to retreat.
As she withdrew herself, Rachel’s body, which had been hardened by tension, loosened. Lucian, who was holding her close to his body, noticed the difference right away.
“Ray?”
When he called, instead of answering, there was only a quiet breathing sound.
Only then could he breathe a sigh of relief.
While he carefully turned Rachel so as not to wake her, he stared at her small face with a relaxed expression different from before.
Lucian’s expression was still twisted with displeasure as he brushed her face with a gentle gesture. If he hadn’t heard about the possessed person from his father, he wouldn’t have been able to understand what had just happened.
“A possessor…”
Of course, the fact that Rachel was included as a possessor disturbed his mind.
He needed to find a way to make sure this wouldn’t happen again. He thought about meeting his father, but he couldn’t leave easily. It was because of the fear that the strange thing would take over Rachel’s body while he was gone.
…Even though he was holding her with his arms firmly, why was he so anxious?
Lucian stared piercingly at Rachel, who exhaled her breath evenly. His eyes stared at her without blinking once, so that the strange thing would not consume her.
Meanwhile, Kylus, who occupied Noah’s body, was rummaging around the bookstore with an annoyed gesture. He couldn’t do what the Prince ordered him to do in time because the most troublesome guy among the collaterals came to visit him.
“A smart guy like that should have been born as an heir.”
Of course, Kylus didn’t hate that troublesome collateral.
Rather, he thought for a moment how good it would have been if such a smart and stout fellow had been in place of Noah. In particular, seeing his tall stature and solid physique, rather than Noah’s frail and slender body, made him want it even more.
“And he graduated from the top of the academy?”
He liked it more because the collateral seemed to have high intelligence as well as good physical strength though it was annoying and cumbersome.
“I’m sure he wouldn’t have run away far.”
When he arrived at the information store disguised as a bookstore, he had already disappeared and only the old man was sitting at the counter.
“Because he is an illusionist, he would have changed his appearance and stayed nearby. There is everything on the information, but did he jump out as it is?”
In front of a dead end, Kylus pondered. If he had been an illusionist, he would have easily changed his appearance and pretended to be someone else. There was no way he would have left his bare body in such a simple way.
“Then…”
In a flash, a person came to mind.
“Ah, you were there from the beginning, right?”
Kylus hurriedly reversed his steps. The old man he had a brief conversation with to find the young informant.
The old man must have been him.
Excited at the thought of being tricked, he hurried into the bookstore. Then, the old man greeted him with a natural expression.
“Welcome.”
Kylus wheezed as he approached the old man. And as he ran to this place, he muttered the name of the person who came to mind.
“Illusionist, Dustin de Erland… Or is it Cassandra?”
Ghosts usually preferred to enter bodies of the same gender. While they have memories of living there, there was no way they would go through a hard time entering a body of a different gender.
If so, it would be Dustin for sure.
“I think so. Dustin, it’s you.”
Bewildered, the old man, who had widened his eyes, smiled with a high voice.
“You know me? Then, are you also a possessor?”
The old man’s high voice changed to a soft, low-pitched voice as Dustin returned to his normal form and looked up at the blond-haired young man.
He couldn’t help laughing at Dustin, who was sitting on a chair at the counter and laughing as if he was having fun too. He did not know that he would meet one of his comrades who participated in the battle to subdue the demon king a thousand years ago in this way.
“It’s Kylus.”
“Kylus de Castilla… Is it really you?”
“Yes!”
“Oh, you entered a body that is too different from your original form? Still, you should have entered a body that suits you.”
“What can I do if this one is the successor?”
“Isn’t the collateral an heir?”
“What? Puhaha. That’s right. The collateral is also my descendants.”
“Though, what’s going on here? Didn’t someone come here with orders to capture me?”
Kylus shook his head at Dustin’s sharp question, obviously remembering that he had come for a different reason yesterday. If it were another possessor, he would have just handed it over to the prince, but turned out, he was a comrade who participated in the subjugation of the demon king together.
Deeply conflicted, he pondered for a moment before whispering secretly.
“What are you doing these days? Even if it’s not, I was ordered to capture you.”
“As expected.”
“What are you up to? Is it something you shouldn’t do, too?”
Kylus wanted to hold on to the prince’s leash, but he trusted Dustin more.
No matter how certain it was now, wasn’t the Prince using him after all? If so, he himself had to thoroughly use the prince and come up with another countermeasure.
Dustin gave Kylus a thoughtful look. In fact, when he was alive, they got along well together. They were both the second sons, so they were very sad about being pushed out of the ranks. So, there were times when they talked about each other’s situation together.
In the first place, it was no different from a paving stone for the possessors—from finding and killing the emperor’s illegitimate sons to finding the Emperor’s nephew to use as a puppet. It was because everyone wanted to rebuild an empire for the possessed.
When Dustin stared at him with a serious look, Kylus also responded with a serious face.
“You are well aware of our injustice, right?”
His words made Kylus’s heart race. He was the first person he met after being possessed, and the words of a person he knew originally had extraordinary power.
“I want to resolve the injustice on behalf of people like us. How much adversity and hardships we had to endure. We endured like that, but in the end, we all had no choice but to destroy ourselves together with the saintess’ decision?”
Answering Dustin’s heated remarks, he spoke carefully.
“Did you expect the saintess to do that?”
“If it is the saintess, you should have known! If it’s the saintess who hears the voice of God, she shouldn’t have let us be slaughtered on the spot!”
“….”
Kylus recalled the terrible memories of that day. The days when he was stuck in the barrier and couldn’t get out and had to deal with the demons to the end.
“If you want to join our plan, I will let you in. But I don’t want you to say anything about the saintess again.”
Dustin’s comments made Kylus deeply troubled, but it was difficult for him to refuse the invitation of the first person he met after being possessed because meeting someone who had lived with him was more joyful than being possessed.
