The Fiancee Who Betrayed Me Is Obsessed With Me

Chapter 64

64 – Their concerns

Lia tightened her belly band tighter than usual and looked at the mirror.

After that incident a few months ago, various abnormal phenomena began to appear in Lia’s body.

One day, while eating, I suddenly felt nauseous, and I became irritated and stressed for no reason.

And above all, my stomach was getting fuller.

I tried to hide it as best as I could, but it was sticking out to the point where it was getting harder and harder to hide it.

It was still just a little belly, but it was obvious that after a few more months, everyone would look at it and think strange things.

“Ugh… ”

Instead of forcing her protruding stomach in, Lia sat down on the floor and cried.

I could no longer take a day off because I was worried that if I used sick leave, my condition would be discovered.

Sometimes, I thought about secretly going to the doctor and getting rid of my child.

He was so disgusted with this little life in his stomach. When I thought that this was the seed of that monster, I even felt like I wanted to rip my own stomach open.

However, when I made up my mind to go see a doctor, I felt serious reluctance.

No matter how much one lives as a knight, does the body belong to a woman? When I thought of throwing away the life I carried in my stomach, I felt guilty.

Feelings of pride and disgust alternately tormented Leah.

Now I hated even hiding my stomach.

I thought about just throwing away my honor and asking for help from the knights to get away from him.

But once I had a child, I couldn’t do that.

If it turns out that you have a child, you won’t be able to live as a knight, regardless of whose child it is.

Even if he tried to illegally erase the child and return to the Order, there was no way he would be accepted.

It was dark. It was the first feeling of despair I had ever felt in my life.

I always thought about my future as a knight and moved forward no matter what trials I faced, but now I couldn’t even take a single step.

It felt like I was walking down a blind road. Because I couldn’t see in front of me, I got scratched here and there, and blood flowed and I eventually collapsed.

“Leah.”

While going about her day unable to hide her depression, Lia met her father, Director Mernis, for the first time in a long time.

We met often before, but recently it was my father I hadn’t seen in a long time.

Because the knights were different, the time they met was usually when Director Mernis was visiting the Guard Knights, but for some reason recently, he had not visited the Guard Knights.

The father, whom he had not seen in a long time, approached Rai with a bright smile.

Lia forced the corners of her mouth to raise, but it only made a funny expression.

As soon as I saw my father, I felt like tears would fall. I tried to smile while holding back tears, but my face just became distorted.

“you’ve worked hard. “Is the mission going well?”

From noble mtl dot com

“yes. it’s okay.”

“okay. “If you need help, let me know anytime.”

Director Mernis looked down at Lia for a while.

His smile seemed somehow sad. Not seen often.

Wow-

“Ah, father… ?”

Director Mernis, who had been looking at his daughter for a while, suddenly hugged her tightly.

Leah was embarrassed, but she couldn’t push him away.

Tears just flowed from my eyes without me realizing it. It was the warmth of a warm person that I had felt for the first time in a long time.

“Never forget that you will always have this father.”

“… yes.”

The father and daughter hugged each other and hid their tears from each other.

***

My relationship with Yuna became closer after her confession.

On the surface, the days were not much different, but when they were alone, her behavior was definitely different than before.

There were times when I acted cute without realizing it, and there were times when he just held me tightly in my arms.

If other people had seen it, it would have been unbelievable.

However, to me, these were actions that reminded me of Yuuna of the past. The behavior she displayed as a child.

Was it all really just an act? At this point, I have doubts about that too.

How on earth could someone have deceived me so thoroughly?

What is Yuna’s true self? What is real?

I couldn’t be sure. There was no way to check.

The only thing that was certain to me was the meaning of my last remaining life.

If we couldn’t destroy Helia, there was no point.

Otherwise there was no point in me surviving.

So, I just lived like the first time, like the day I survived alone, vowing only to get revenge.

-Your Majesty enters.

A long red carpet stretched starting from the throne.

On both sides, all the royal family members and ministers were standing in a line facing each other.

No one moved. The absolute person of this place was walking on the red carpet they were looking at now.

A weakened gait compared to its prime. A wrinkled face and a trembling hand holding a cane.

However, his spirit that started Helia’s heyday did not die.

He looked like he was about to yell at any moment. However, a kind smile was also present.

“Hmm… ”

He slowly walked among the royal family and ministers and sat down on the throne.

It was already obvious why he brought everyone together despite his sick body.

Nominating the next king. And the result was actually obvious.

“As you know, I don’t have much time. There’s no need to say it again. “We are trying to decide on a successor.”

The King spoke with a hoarse voice.

In fact, he won’t die right now. However, depending on the recent situation in the kingdom, they probably felt it was necessary to sort it out at least once.

“As you know, everything is for Helia’s glory. I wasn’t the eldest son either. I gave everything to bring glory to Helya. That’s why I was able to be here.

The results were already expected to some extent.

Choosing the first prince here would be tantamount to a declaration that one would abandon the country.

Most of the 1st Prince’s forces were already purged or nobles who ignored him.

Yuuna’s power was increasing, and the construction of the magic tower was also progressing steadily.

According to Eric and Yuna, as long as permission is granted, the time it takes to build the magic tower will actually be short.

In the first place, the structure called the Magic Tower itself was a building based on magic.

In the past, it is said that wizards created each magic tower in a different way, taking advantage of its individuality.

Since the magic tower’s early wizards used large-scale magic to create it, no construction is necessary.

I wanted to see it in person because I couldn’t convey it well in words.

I wasn’t planning on doing anything until the Magic Tower was completed. In the first place, I didn’t know how the wizards, including Eric, would turn out if there was conflict with the empire before the magic tower was completed.

Because they are wizards, once their magic tower is built, they will no longer be involved in wars.

Because it was a treaty between the wizards of the Magic Tower. It was good without them.

“I will make a declaration right here.”

Everything that happened afterward was as expected.

And, it also meant that it was time.

“Congratulations, princess.”

“Thank you Beryl.”

It was a long day. After all of the day’s events were over, Yuna and I were left alone to celebrate our victory.

But her expression didn’t look that good.

Although he was smiling the whole time after securing the throne, he did not seem to be very relieved.

“… Why are you like this, princess? “Do you have any concerns?”

“… no. just. “I just feel a little weird.”

“Can you tell me?”

“Yes. “No, nothing.”

“Princess.”

Her expression was still stern, but I held onto her shoulder as she continued to talk.

He didn’t seem relieved to have secured the throne.

Clearly, she had something stuck or a problem that had not yet been resolved.

For me, I needed to know that. That way, variables can be reduced.

“Put this down.”

“… Are you going to hide it? To me.”

“What are you hiding… ”

“It’s not a long time, but I’ve been serving the princess for the past few years. “How can I not be bothered when you make that kind of expression?”

I pulled Yuna towards me and hugged her.

I gently stroked one of her cheeks as she looked up at me.

The distance was such that you could almost think of them as lovers. Recently our street has always been like this.

There was no mention of who should date first or get engaged, but it was like this.

Yuna said she liked me, but I didn’t say I liked her.

It was just this kind of atmosphere. But the important thing is to leave an imprint on Yuna’s mind.

It gradually became indispensable to her.

“Aren’t you happy that you won the throne?”

“great. but… “It’s not good.”

“Not so good?”

“just… It feels empty. It’s true that I ran for the throne, but I wasn’t that happy when I actually got it. No, I never even thought that I would be happy if I got the throne in the first place.”

“… “Then why did you want to become king?”

“that… ”

Yuna buried her head in my arms and stopped talking.

I don’t know if she was thinking about something or choosing her words, but she just stayed there for a long time, breathing in my body odor.

“… I don’t know Anyway, it feels strange.”

In the end, she didn’t give any specific answer.

Did I just feel empty?

Maybe it was something like that. Once you get it, it’s not that big of a deal.

Maybe she was aiming for the throne simply because she was royalty and because her personality was so cruel and greedy.

She didn’t seem to be able to come to any particular conclusion either. In that case, there was no need to inquire further.

“kiss… Please do it.”

“… yes.”
