89. To become a suitable person for Damian. The family must be annihilated (4)

Yuri lying together in Damian’s cramped tent.

She gently opened her eyes, which had been closed.

In my field of vision came Damian, who was soundly asleep with his eyes closed.

‘Damian never abandoned me. She didn’t mean that Damian abandoned me. I didn’t know that, and I misunderstood Damian again.’

This stupid me.

Yuri blamed herself for doubting Damian for being stupid.

However, contrary to my thoughts.

His face was full of laughter.

“Eheh… Ehehehe… Damian… never abandoned me…”

I was not abandoned.

It was just a misunderstanding.

‘There’s no way my friend Damian will abandon me.’

Yuri muttered sullenly and laughed lightly.

But that’s only for a while.

“…Didn’t you say Damian was imprisoned?”

Duk-

I hardened my expression and tried to recall Damian’s words.

“Nadia. She said she was imprisoned by her. So she said Damian couldn’t reach me…”

Because she is that woman.

There was a misunderstanding between me and Damian, so we almost got into a fight.

‘I don’t know why… It’s clear he was trying to create a wedge between me and Damian.’

Adduk-

Yuri gnashed his teeth, remembering Nadia’s mocking face.

“Should I… Take care of her hands…? So that I can’t harm Damian…?”

However, if I use violence toward Nadia, even if it’s the first time I hit her, Damian might hate me.

Because Damian wants me to stay still.

“Damian told me to be quiet… So I’ll be quiet… Damian is my best friend… No, my fiancée.”

For our future.

I can understand and be patient.

Because I am more accustomed to enduring pain than anyone else.

Yuri carefully placed her finger on Damian’s cheek as she slept.

“Damian… “

White and soft cheeks.

Moist skin.

I had an impulsive thought to put my lips on that cheek.

“Oh, no…! That, if you do that… Damian might hate it…!”

… But once in a while.

I’m sleeping, but can I try it?

Yuri gloomily glanced at Damian, and eventually she made up her mind.

Gulp-

Yuri lowered her finger on her cheek and stood up.

A blazing heartbeat and a red face.

Then, as if handling her valuables, he carefully tried to bring his lips together.

But…

“…What would be the point of doing this?”

Eventually.

Yuri stopped her actions and lay down next to Damian again.

Although she briefly trumped instinct over reason.

The timid Yuri eventually decided not to act.

“Me, because I’m still bad… I’m not perfect… Next time I’m a decent person…”

Damian won’t be uncomfortable at that time.

At that time, it would be really okay to do it.

Yuri thought so and looked at Damian asleep and closed her eyes.

“Good night, Damian.”

Although he was happy enough to look at Damian and sleep.

Yuri felt a little thirsty.

***

Me and Yuri climbed the snowy mountain first after parting ways.

That doesn’t mean I abandoned them.

As a result of searching the area, they found a horse that was wandering in the forest, and Yuri used her supernatural strength to bring the wagon that had collapsed to the side.

‘Well, they should be leaving by now.’

We did everything we could.

All that remains is their actions.

Yuri muttered something as she walked beside me, as if there was an afterglow from our breakup.

“I-he said thank you… He said he’s not a monster, he’s a hero… Ehehehe…”

“…”

Is it because we were praised for being heroes rather than monsters after we broke up?

You look very happy.

I decided to praise Yuri often as usual.

‘Looking at it like this reminds me of the onion experiment.’

The onion experiment I did unconditionally in science class when I was young.

Praise onions.

Blame onion.

An onion that is praised grows rapidly, and an onion that is criticized rots.

So the experiment was applied to humans, and the experiment contained the lessons leading to the praised child and the criticized child.

‘They say it doesn’t really mean anything… ‘

Still, if you look at it in that sense.

Isn’t Yuri the current blame onion.

‘I grew up receiving only criticism and rotted inside… It’s like an onion of criticism.’

Duke Ibasten.

The man did not hesitate to use criticism and violence in order to make Yuri stronger.

As a result, Yuri lacked social skills and lost self-esteem.

He improved his fighting skills, but…

Yuri’s mental state became extremely unstable.

From noble mtl dot com

He must have been a kid who needed praise to grow up well.

I saw Yuri walking with a smile on his face.

Then, feeling sorry for her, she placed her hand on Yuri’s dark hair.

“Yes, yes… ? Damian Why… ?”

“… Like us Let’s do our best, Yuri.”

“Of course… ! I am always energized when I am with Damian… !”

Yuri clenched his fists and smiled.

However, Yuri’s expression hardened as she got closer to the Grand Duke’s family.

Although he has been with me and gained a lot of good memories, it seemed that it was not enough to forget the pain of the past.

“… Let’s go, Yuri.”

“Ugh… “

In the cold north, I held Yuri’s hand warmly.

It was a time when the Grand Duchy of Justia was just around the corner.

***

The snowy mountain was rugged and dangerous.

The ascent took a long time, well over 10 days passing through several villages to get to the top.

Since I didn’t use the wagon just in case, it took longer than expected.

‘Still, it was fortunate that I was able to restore trust while staying with Yuri during that period.’

The trust between the two of us that was broken by my confinement.

Me and Yuri were able to regain lost trust by eating together on a snowy mountain and sleeping in the same tent.

However, during that period, I learned an important fact.

‘When Yuri sleeps with me… Watch me fall asleep first.’

And.

If I want to fall asleep.

I keep feeling the gaze that can’t be explained in words.

In the end, it didn’t lead to any action, so I quietly closed my eyes.

When I slept with Yuri, I felt a sense of dread.

“Damian.”

“Yes, huh? Why?”

“I think we are all there… “

I was shocked to hear Yuri’s words and looked ahead.

As she said, she saw a huge mansion in front of her.

The huge mansion of the Grand Duchess Justia.

Yuri looked up at the mansion and murmured softly.

“I wish I had burned everything… “

“Yuri? What did you just say?”

“I said I wish it were all burnt… “

Yes.

I didn’t hear that wrong.

Yuri kindly gave me a confirmation kill.

First of all, she decided not to do anything more than hand Yuri a lamp or firearm.

“By the way. How do I get in?”

“That, that’s right… “

It’s a tall barricade blocking our way.

It is too dangerous to enter through the main gate.

It’s because they can summon all the knights and kill us as a group.

In that case, Yuri and I have only two choices.

“Yuri. What do you think would be best for you?”

“Go in… killing everyone… “

“… Not that. Write, I’ll give you two options.”

“Two things… ?”

“First of all, go in hiding. However, due to Archduke Ibasten’s excellent senses, there is a high chance of getting caught. Instead, it will be easy for you to reach Prince Ibasten as you wish.”

“Then first… !”

“No, listen to what people say.”

I’m crazy about killing children.

I said spreading two fingers to Yuri.

“The second step is to enter the main gate squarely.”

“That, wouldn’t that be too dangerous… ? But, Damian, it’s not that my head went crazy because it was cold… ?”

“… “

You are talking too harshly, Yuri.

My heart hurt a little when Yuri spat out those words doubting me.

However, my second thought had some basis, albeit a gamble.

“Still, it must be the safest way.”

“Ugh… i think so too… I think Damian is right… !”

“Then let’s go with the first plan.”

Go into the mansion undetected.

Then, he kills Yuri’s father, Ibasten, inside.

For Yuri’s succession and revenge.

Late night.

Me and Yuri jumped up a high bar for such a plan.

However, will Yuri be able to kill Ibasten as planned?

A little bit about that.

I heard a reasonable guess that it might be difficult.

This is my impression of seeing the power of glass properly after coming to the North.

I didn’t even know that Yuri wasn’t a ‘failure’.

***

The Justia Mansion was similar to the last time I saw it.

The burnt parts are rebuilt, giving it a clean feel.

Old materials gave a worn-out atmosphere.

Still, the fact that it was splendid remained unchanged.

“There is no one beside you?”

“Yes… I can’t hear anything… “

“Okay, let’s go.”

Tadak-Tadak-

Me and Yuri walked around the corridors where there were no knights, and approached the housekeeper’s office.

It was not difficult to go undetected with Yuri’s excellent sense.

It was difficult to handle Yuri’s talent and skill in the mansion except for Ibasten.

That moment when I walked around and avoided it for a long time.

“Is this your office?”

“Ugh… My father has always been here… “

Eventually.

We have reached the office in Ibasten.

According to Yuri, I can feel the presence from the inside.

I’m sure there is an Ibasten here.

I checked her by turning her head to determine her condition of her glass.

‘Your skin is pale. Her breath is not even.’

I wonder if it reminds me of the tension and fear of that time.

The condition of the glass did not look good.

I held her hand warmly so she could relax and calm herself.

Yuri looked at me in surprise and said.

“Go, thanks Damian… Without you… I, I wouldn’t have reached this place… “

“What are you friends with? More than that, take heart, Yuri. Your father will be here. Everyone has to be careful.”

“Oh, I didn’t know… Damian… I’ll try my best… !”

I wonder if Yuri gained strength from me.

His eyes flashed hard and strongly.

Then he mustered up the courage to open the door to the office with me.

Kiki-

The sound of a door opening.

And then, the glass nightmare unfolded before him.

Duke Ibasten.

As if he was waiting for us.

He was looking at us with his piercing eyes shining.

“Haa… ha… “

Yuri looked at him, her heart beating faster.

He exhaled rapidly.

He placed his hand on the sword at his waist so that he could prepare for a fight immediately.

Yuri took a deep breath and said.

“Father… to me… I think you should give me the title of grand duke… I guess I need a succession… “

I’m timid.

The meaning is clearly conveyed.

But against her will.

“You’re back. My daughter Justia Yuri.”

Not a failure.

Speaking of being my daughter.

Ibasten greeted Yuri with a warm smile.

Looking at that figure, Yuri…

“Uh, uh… ?”

I was taken aback by the unexpected sight and didn’t know what to do.

Yuri has already improved her skills at the academy.

It was not a failure by Ibasten’s selfish standards.

“You have grown a lot, I missed you. My daughter.”

“… “

But even so.

Yuri’s wounds and memories did not disappear neatly.

I was just sinking into a sticky swamp that was hard to get out of.
