I led Klaus to the living room with a sulky face.
Hey, if you’re the lead, that’s it! Just because you’re the lead, you shouldn’t destroy all the paper cranes that the supporting actors worked so hard to fold!
Klaus entered the parlor and was the first to dismiss the maids.
Looking at it this way, it was a similar structure to the last time I visited.
“Don’t stare at me like that, come sit over here.”
Klaus sat down on the living room sofa with light steps.
The cloud-shaped long sofa with green carpet and gold decorations elegantly wrapped along the curve was my favorite sofa in the world.
The sight of a handsome man lounging on that sofa looked like a pictorial.
Through the hem of his shirt, with a couple of buttons undone, I could see the muscles under his collarbone twitching.
Oh, no. This is not the time to be looking at things like this! Let’s not fall for the handsome man world!
“So what do you want to talk about?”
As soon as I sat down across from Klaus, I got straight to the point.
Klaus’ eyes widened at those words.
“Did you confide in the devil?”
“Isn’t it true?”
“Yeah. I said that last time too.”
Despite my protests, Klaus’ complexion did not change at all. He shrugged his shoulders leisurely.
“I also don’t think the young lady was in cahoots with the devil, but my younger brother said that no matter how much he thought about it, the young lady was suspicious and that we should investigate.”
“His Majesty Rudeat?”
“okay.”
“But it’s not His Highness Rudyard who’s here now.”
“These days, Rudeat is sensitive to things related to demons. If you treat the lady roughly, she’ll be in trouble, right?”
Klaus answered calmly. I stared into his dark red eyes for a moment.
First of all, assuming that everything Klaus said is correct, Klaus came to help me.
So, is the assumption that Klaus is a dark figure or a leading villain wrong?
But I asked without relaxing.
Because Klaus has a history of trying to drive a wedge between me and Lariette.
“But why did you take all my paper cranes?”
“Anyway, since we’re here to investigate, shouldn’t we bring something suitable?”
“Are paper cranes appropriate?”
“Rudiet will probably have to open all those paper cranes and examine them himself to ease his anger. This will buy him some time.”
“Buying time?”
“Shouldn’t we find out why the lady’s younger brother and my brother suspect her of being in cahoots with the devil?”
Klaus said calmly. I could understand that too.
First of all, I need time to ask Lariette if it’s true that she really suspected me.
“…Do you trust me and help me?”
“Well, it’s similar.”
I stared at the man in front of me suspiciously for a moment.
Really good skin… … It’s not that I didn’t know, it was because I couldn’t figure out why he trusted me.
“You look suspicious.”
“I doubt it. According to what you said, Lariette accused me of conspiring with the devil, but you don’t believe her, right?”
“that’s right.”
“Is there a special basis?”
“Well, physiognomy?”
Contemplation. In a Western-style fantasy, there are very Eastern beliefs.
To say the least, it’s nonsense. I scoffed and shook my head.
“Do you believe that?”
“I’m just kidding. But I believe she wouldn’t have done something like that.”
“why?”
“Well, why?”
Klaus just said that and smiled his characteristic eye smile. He was arrogant, but even that made him look noble.
‘You have a gangster face, you have a gangster face.’
When I saw that face, I lost the will to argue.
In the first place, I didn’t think Klaus would answer if I asked more, so I just shook my head.
“……is it so.”
But feeling sick to my stomach was a separate issue.
It wasn’t that I was afraid of being accused of having conspired with the devil.
What made me feel sick was… … .
“Hey. Do you really need to open all those paper cranes?”
Because of the two hundred origami cranes.
“When we investigate, everything will be disassembled. According to the ancient method of summoning demons, they say that a spell to summon a demon is written on a piece of paper and a circle is created to create a model. To confirm the lady’s innocence, they will check to see if the liquor is written on it.”
“Where is this law?”
Does that make sense? Who calls the devil while folding origami cranes?
I pursed my lips. Klaus’ handsomeness alone wasn’t enough to resolve my resentment.
“I just wanted to make one wish that would come true, but thanks to that, it all went in vain.”
I let out a long sigh and leaned back on the sofa.
If you think about it, it was an insignificant paper crane, but it was still the only thing that came to this world and was created with its own meaning and affection.
There was no way I could say anything good about it all coming to naught for some absurd reason, like it was the devil or something.
done. There’s nothing good coming out, so I just have to keep my mouth shut.
It was at that time when I was pressing my lips together and applying force. Unexpected words came from Klaus’ voice.
“I’m sorry about that.”
Klaus raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly bitterly. It wasn’t a smile that gave any indication of his true intentions.
He might have been fooled again, but this time he looked truly sorry.
‘Are you serious?’
… … If you think about it, it’s because you’re a bit clumsy with your words, but it’s not like you did me any harm.
In fact, he even stepped forward on his behalf to buy me more time.
I felt a little guilty and shook my head.
“No. You have nothing to be sorry about….”
There was no need to completely open one’s heart to Klaus, but it also seemed rude to be unconditionally guarded like he was now.
You can make a decision after watching Klaus more and checking the facts with Lariette.
‘I can’t do this. I should apologize for being emotional and make up with him… … .’
The moment I opened my mouth, my romance brain circuit that had been sleeping suddenly started spinning!
With such a handsome man and such an obvious opportunity, wouldn’t not taking advantage of this opportunity be a crime against romance possession?
He said he was sorry! You owe me a debt of your heart! If you have a debt, it goes without saying that you should pay it back!
The school is broken anyway, so let’s at least make some progress!
While I couldn’t control my feelings, my mouth started fluttering wildly.
“If you’re sorry, would you like to go to school with me instead?”
“huh?”
Oh, this can’t be happening. Even as I listened, my voice was already full of anticipation.
The corners of his righteous mouth were already rising as if they were going to pierce the ceiling.
“I really want to fold a lot of these cranes and make a wish. If you don’t feel sorry, it doesn’t matter, but if you do feel a little sorry for me, how about folding a lot of cranes with me?”
In addition, let’s see if we can build up our relationship flag! If Klaus refuses here, I won’t turn my righteous Lopan brain around anymore!
Klaus looked at me without answering. His dark red eyes shone sharply like those of a wild beast.
I broke into a cold sweat as the gaze seemed to be looking into my heart.
‘Could it be that you can read my mind or something like that?’
That is definitely difficult. People may not know what I’m talking about, but I don’t want anyone I meet in person to know about it!
I hastily threw up my hand.
I didn’t intend to show off this much, but looking at his handsome face, I felt excited again.
“Well, if your highness is in trouble, it’s okay. I just mean, don’t feel sorry….”
“It’s not bad. I was also looking for an excuse to keep meeting with the young lady.”
“yes?”
yes? people. Did I hear that correctly?
“I like it, young lady. Even if it wasn’t so, I wanted to talk about various things with you.”
Klaus smiled brightly and clapped lightly.
oh my god. It’s such an amazing thing to see a handsome man smiling brightly from a close distance.
He smiles so brightly that he wants to talk to me alone. Isn’t this his fault even if I get excited? I suppressed my pounding heart and looked at Klaus.
He raised his body slightly and rested his chin. The sight of the veins protruding under his long fingers was sensational.
“Would you like to talk to me?”
“okay.”
“What kind of story do you want to talk about…?”
I told myself several times not to have any unnecessary expectations, but my heart was pounding needlessly.
calm down! It’s not time for you to step out yet!
However, for me, who has a temperament of being a hard-core person, this scene of a handsome man smiling brightly and saying he had something he wanted to say personally was a violation in itself.
The best I could do was grit my teeth so as not to show how desperate I was.
“We’ll talk about that later. Still….”
Klaus’s black hair was disheveled. I swallowed again.
Shiny black hair swayed slightly to the side, revealing bright eyes and a high nose bridge underneath.
The light from Klaus seemed brighter than the light from the window.
“I was quite looking forward to talking with you from the beginning.”
I had to be careful not to let my eyes get too big.
However, it was not a meaningful precaution in a situation where the heart was already beating so loudly that it rang in every room in the neighborhood.
My heart felt like it was going to explode.
A sweet voice drifted into my ears.
“Then I’ll be looking forward to our next meeting.”
“Yes. Please take a look, Your Majesty!”
After Klaus left, catharsis came.
haha! Goodbye! Duke Brudel! Hamel! You left me not because of the male lead, but I will date a more handsome man!
“Oh, wait a minute. So, should I wish for something other than waste for a thousand paper cranes?”
Oh, you can decide that later.
I was so excited that such trivial details didn’t even matter.
If Klaus is the male protagonist and my romantic partner, doesn’t that mean I can claim that handsome face as mine for the rest of my life?
Ah, it’s the best, the best. The best of life. The best of Bing!
“Wow! Possession is the best!”
In this life, there may be YouTubers, but there is no romance with a handsome man!
