I'm Not Interested In The Main Characters

Chapter 9

Following the Prince and the Duke of Esteban’s visits, the atmosphere around the employees was chaotic.

In Elysia’s ear, she could hear the words of who she likes better, who will get along better with the lady, who was better suited.

She wouldn’t be able to hear these words if her hearing was like that of a normal person.

Elysia stole a glance at Cassian.

She tilted her head, wondering if he would hear it as well.

I’ll ask you later when I have the chance.

The employees started carrying food.

Elysia smiled a little because she could tell that the chef had given her strength.

Cassian sat across from Elysia.

“Everyone out.”

“Please call if you need us.”

They seemed a little surprised, but soon they bowed their heads and went out. It was common for employees to leave after serving meals.

But they didn’t know what kind of conversation he was going to have, so it was right to let them go.

A playfulness came to mind in Cassian’s eyes, looking through Elysia.

“Aren’t you supposed to eat this one, not that one?”

Cassian alternately pointed at the food and the nape of his neck with his finger.

Elysia laughed at his sudden smacking words.

“What the hell do you think I am? Monster?”

“No way. ”

There is no such thing as a pretty monster, and Cassian started eating.

Elysia looked at him with the face that she had heard him.

“You don’t really mean it.”

Cassian opened her mouth again as he saw her not starting to eat.

“This side?”

“Or this side?”

Again, Elysia grabbed his hand that was pointing to the nape of his neck.

She pulled the plate in front of her, but it was a rare grilled steak.

Now, what’s the use of eating grass in front of him?

Elysia glanced at him as he began to eat quietly.

Her gaze shifted to his hand holding a knife rather than his graceful eating.

The veins on the back of his hand made her mouth water. Elysia didn’t know why she was sucking her fork.

‘Was it that side?’

Cassian, who felt her gaze, tried not to.

It was because he felt like she would really get angry if he started to laugh.

Isn’t it too harmless for the eyes of a beast looking at its prey?

Rather, there was a cute feeling, but it was difficult to concentrate on the meal because it was unfamiliar to see her eating meat.

Elysia, in a belated rush, cut through the steak like an enemy stabbing wool.

She has been smelling his body for too long today. She was embarrassed by the swirling vampire curse.

After the meal, Cassian gave the chef high praise that it was a very good meal.

Elysia shook her head at his pretense.

The meal was over, so she wanted to send him off and rest, but there was still something to say.

“Let’s take a walk.”

Elysia grabbed his cuffs and headed out.

Elysia’s whispering voice was seen as a shy woman in the eyes of employees.

Even though Elysia didn’t tell them to stay away, the employees continued to walk away.

“You hardly ate. Is it okay to eat that way?”

“I just had no appetite.”

“You look like you’re going to eat me up.”

Should I tell you that your smell is very appetizing?

Elysia breathed heavily.

Then she opened her mouth to him at the thought that came to her mind.

“Is there any reason to keep meeting in this way? It seems meaningless.”

“Yes, and now you need my help, don’t you?”

Elysia’s mouth was all bitten at the right words.

There was the Crown Prince.

Wouldn’t it not be enough to just pretend to be a couple? They’re separated anyway, so he won’t be stubborn.

Unfortunately, the dominant one in this relationship was her.

She couldn’t do that before because the original Elysia loved Revos, but now that she had no feelings for him, she had nothing to do with it.

If the Duke of Lowell immediately turned his back on him and turned the nobles away, then Revos would be in trouble.

“I’ll cooperate with your surveillance, so you should cooperate with me.”

“What if you don’t?”

“You said you were helping me?”

Elysia turned her head and looked at him.

He looked as if she was talking about something else now.

“You first posted an article saying that you fell in love at first sight, right?”

Cassian narrows the distance with Elysia.

Elysia retreated as much as he narrowed his approaching body.

Her fingertips buzzed from the gaze staring at her.

“We’ll have to keep meeting anyway, so it’s best for it to be convenient for each other.”

Cassian would publish an article every time they meet.

If it was made public as an article, the woman in front of him would not even think of running away for a while, and Cassian laughed satisfactorily.

‘He’s too close.’

She had to let him go before she could hit him.

“I think it’s time for you to get going, Duke.”

“You’re being too hard on me.”

“You must’ve had a lot of hopes while holding my weaknesses and threatening me.”

Cassian tilted his beautiful face.

“Are you not more polite when you have a weakness? I like this one better.”

Elysia frowned at once.

“You have a unique taste”

***

Elysia reached an agreement last night to officially reveal that she is Cassian’s lover.

However, no news appeared in today’s paper.

‘How did this happen?’

It couldn’t have been that Cassian changed his mind.

She hasn’t checked it, but it wasn’t only the Duke of Esteban that decides to publish an article.

Her side had also been ready to spread the story.

The cause of Elysia’s anxiety became clear after lunch.

“Greetings, Lady Lowell. I am Hans from the Central Palace.”

“...Central Palace?”

At the moment, Elysia thought she had misheard.

The only person who came from the Central Palace was the emperor.

The attendant of Central Palace visited her, not even Duke Lowell.

Elysia sensed that something was going terribly wrong.

It was because she remembered the words of Revos, asking if they could be engaged.

‘You don’t think so, do you? Crazy.....’

“Lady...?”

“When do I need to go to the Palace?”

“In the morning in three days.”

“Okay. ”

“Then I will take my leave.”

The attendant left the parlor with a polite greeting to see if all of the business was over.

Elysia bit her lips. When the Emperor attended the banquet, she could only see from afar.

She can’t believe she’s meeting the Emperor while her father wasn’t here.

She was already involved in a bad scandal with the Crown Prince.

“Do I really have to run away?”

Elysia touched her forehead with her palm.

Please hope that this is not what she is thinking about.

***

The Emperor’s delightful laughter rang in the audience chamber.

Hearing the laughter, Elysia swallowed cold sweat inside.

He didn’t immediately say the reason for the call, but he asked questions about this and that. However, the questions were not sharp.

Elysia tried to meet Cassian first before meeting the Emperor, but Cassian only said one thing.

Find him after meeting the Emperor. In the end, Elysia was sitting in a room without knowing why the Emperor called her.

“I heard you have cleared up your relationship with the Prince, is that true?”

“...Yes.”

“It happens when young people meet, so don’t be too uncomfortable. Then, the Lady has no heart for the Prince anymore.”

It didn’t seem like he was asking for an answer.

The Emperor was contemplating something and rubbed his chin with his hand.

Elysia wanted to ask what it was.

She was curious about it, but it seemed that she should not know

“Oh, come to think of it, it’s very noisy these days. It’s good to be young.”

“...I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”

“Haha. There is no need for that. Feel free to relax. That is why I called you today anyway.”

The Emperor as if he was searching her for clues.

Elysia smiled more broadly at the anxiety coming up.

It was clear that he was talking about the scandal that had become a love triangle.

“It’s the country that blocked the Lady’s story.”

“Is that so... what?”

“The Prince said he wants to marry the Lady.”

She had to struggle to manage her facial expressions.

She said she was Cassian’s lover, but she guessed he didn’t even hear it in the back of his ear.

‘Do I really have to go into the tower and spend my entire life studying magic instead?’

Elysia rubbed her forearm with her hand, thinking that it was terrible to imagine both a marriage with Revos and entering a tower.

The marriage that came from the Imperial Family could not be easily rejected.

There was a need for a good reason to refuse or a reason for not being able to marry.

In addition, the reason for refusal could also be not accepted at all.

“I called the Lady because there is no Duke Lowell right now. If there was the Duke, he would have tried to stop it at all costs, saying that the Lady did not want it.”

Her father, the Duke of Lowell and the Emperor, have been close friends since childhood.

There was also such a reason for calling Elysia to give him a word in advance.

The Emperor was now trying to give her a chance to patch things up.

“Your Majesty. If I dare say a word, His Majesty the Crown Prince will need more of a different family than I do.”

Her family had already supported Revos, and the Emperor knew that nothing would change if she broke up with him.

But, it could still change if the forces of the Crown Prince and Second Prince were in tight confrontation.

No matter what, Revos had to attract more supporters.

Or, like Duke Blanc, the heroine’s family, he pulls out the core forces of the nobles.

“Yes, but if the Prince is so hard-hearted, I have no choice but to stand on his side.”

“Give me a little time.”

“I can’t wait too long. Don’t be too disappointed.”

“Thank you.”

“Would 10 days be enough?”

“...That’s enough.”

It wasn’t enough at all.

Even if her father returned to the Empire right now, it took him two weeks.

It would take a week to get the job done in a hurry.

To extinguish this confusion, it was necessary to turn Revos’ mind, or something that Revos could not insist on the Emperor.

Elysia felt the desire to grab hold of Revos’ collar and shake him right away.
