Chapter 82: I had to hate
“Go over there right now. Otherwise, I’ll have the guards take you by force.”
“…Princess Chai.”
“I’m serious. Who do you think I am? Shall I make you suffer just like in your past life?”
She glared at me fiercely, as if I were her parents’ murderer. She breathed heavily through her shoulders, gritting her teeth in anger.
Why did she hate me so much, to this extent?
Did she really love Julian-sama that much? Is that why she couldn’t stand me, to the point of wanting to kill me?
If that were the case, then I could understand her feelings better than anyone.
Because I, too, was once consumed by such madness.
She must have fallen deeply in love with him from the moment they first met.
“…Princess Chai, please believe me. I have no intention of fighting with you.”
“Shut up. How can anyone trust the words of a criminal who tried to kill me?”
It’s no use. There’s no reasoning with her. In her eyes, controlled by madness, I appear terribly distorted.
This must be normal. I pushed her down the stairs, it’s an undeniable fact.
“I should arrest you right now…”
“Shut up. If you insult Alise any further, I will kill you myself.”
With Julian-sama’s intense aura that almost made me crawl on the ground, all the cells in my body reacted. The guards are still in a distance, but they are ready to jump at me at any moment.
As a prince of a nation, trivial remarks cannot be overlooked. It is more frightening to me if the guards’ focus shifts to Julian-sama.
“Let’s reschedule. No matter how much we discuss here, we won’t be able to come to a resolution.”
“You’re just trying to buy time so you can kill me.”
“If that is what you insist on, then please arrest me.”
I raise my chin and stare at the guards. I noticed their shoulders slightly twitched in response.
“Despite being a princess, I hope you understand how foolish it is to capture the daughter of a Duke from a friendly nation, Princess Slophone. You are not so naive as to not comprehend this.”
Julian-sama calmly asserted his pressure. Unlike before, he seemed to consider my unfavorable situation and was being considerate.
“Hmph, well, fine then. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future even if I don’t finish you off here.”
“Princess Chai, I swear here and now that I will never harm you.”
“That’s exactly the attitude that annoys me!”
With her big eyes opened wide, she strained her voice in disgust. Despite the prickling hatred in her skin that wanted to kill me, why did I feel such a sad emotion?
It was not anger or fear, but just sadness. I wondered if she also felt the same.
“It seems Julian-sama was more of a fool than I thought. But I believe that he is not an incompetent person who does not even know what would happen if he defends her.”
“Say whatever you want.”
“…Tch.”
With an irritated click of her tongue, Princess Chai turned lightly and glanced briefly in my direction.
“Aliseteen Quatra, I will definitely make you suffer the same fate as me.”
Throwing out those words, she left with her attendants and guards.
