Chapter 169

Eventually, Larane was locked up in her room.

At first, they asked for the cooperation of the Lombardy Knight and wanted them to protect the door, but they were firmly rejected.

Now Seral, Viese, and Belsach take turns guarding the door.

I went and said that I wanted to see Larane, but I had to be kicked out with only Seral's scornful gaze.

"But do you think I will give up?"

I leaned against the window of my room and looked at the darkened evening sky.

And gradually the stars appeared one by one and it was close to night.

Creak.

The sound of the iron gate of the mansion across the garden closing was heard in the distance.

Now that door won't open until dawn unless something special happens.

No one can enter or leave the mansion.

Of course, Viese's family, who are aware of the fact, will have no choice but to loosen their guard.

It's late again, so he might have just fallen asleep guarding the door.

"Time's up."

I realized before I knew it was almost time and went outside.

The trees in the small forest next to the annex seemed to sing a pas song along with the wind.

And when the song subsides for a while.

"Tia."

Perez walked out of the dark forest.

The walls of the Lombardy mansion are high, and the Lombardy Knights and Soldiers are guarding it without a hitch.

It was meaningless in front of Perez, who exceeded human limits in many ways, like dealing with aura.

"What happened? You asked me to meet you first."

Perez immediately grabbed my hand and kissed the back of my hand.

"It's almost two months. Now, Perez, I think you've returned to the Capital."

In the meantime, Perez was away to the South.

Maybe he went to take care of something.

After pausing at my words, Perez regained his smile after a while.

"Yes, Tia, you did, I forgot for a moment. I'm still adjusting."3

It's already been three months since Perez found out who I am as the owner of Pellet Corporation.

But every time the memories of that time come to mind, Perez seemed so surprised and delighted again.

"But why did you call me today, Tia? I'm glad to see you. I don't think there's anything going on..."

Perez, who was approaching me, stopped talking.

"Lips..."

Perez's gaze touched my lips, which had burst from being slapped by Viese.

And the wind blew.

Until just a moment ago, trees, which had been dancing pleasantly in the wind, began to hum and shaking threateningly.

It was because of the heavy wave that spread around Perez.

In the meantime, I could see that it was quiet around me.

"Who is it, Tia?"

At first glance, his friendly voice was imbued with anger.

Perez's pupil color was also slightly different than usual.

"Who did hurt you?"

Perez said with a frown as if he was in more pain.

I shook my head at such a Perez.

"Put down your energy."

With my words, the power to suppress the surroundings disappeared like a lie.

Clap.

The birds, unable to escape, were finally seen flying far away from the tree.

"It doesn't matter who hurt me, Perez."

"Why it doesn't matter?"

Perez seemed unhappy for not being told and his eyes were still sharp-looking at my swollen lips, but he nodded gently.

"How did that happen?"

"In fact, a few days ago..."

I gave Perez a summary of what had happened.

And added at the end.

"That's why I need you, Perez."

"Ah..."

Perez blinked for a moment at my words and smiled.

The scent of the forest is as deep as a smile that appears.

"Why are you smiling like that?"

"I'm glad. I mean, Tia needs me."

"You're so..."

I shut up trying to scold Perez out of habit.

I'm the one who's asking Perez for a favor.

I can't do this.

I nodded and walked in the lead and said.

"I don't think it's that difficult for you. I need your help first, Perez."

"Anything."

Dude, he's totally excited.2

I started walking through the forest with Perez.

It was a road where the guards, who were walking around on time, didn't travel here.

And where we were headed was the main building.

Standing face to face with Perez in the dark shade, I said in a small voice.

"Put me up there."

Perez looked up along the tip of my finger.

"...Terrace?"

"Yeah, that one on the third floor."

"Larane's Lombardy's room?"

As expected, Perez got it right away.

I nodded.

"Are you going to be okay?"

"What?"

"It must be scary."

Although it is said to be on the third floor, but the ceiling is high, so the fourth floor of an ordinary building is more suitable.

But it's not that scary.+

"I trust you, Perez."

That's a piece of cake for you, isn't it?

Perez smiled and liked it, then tilted his head slightly towards me and asked.

"If you tell me who did it."

Well, he's not going to just do a favor.

"...Viese."

"Viese Lombardy?"
