I’m Not Interested In The Main Characters

Chapter 16

Elysia left the parlor, as Rian, who seemed unwilling to rise even after finishing his oath, finally rose.

“Ryan? Take your sister and come stay in the annex.”

“Yes.”

“Oh! If she says she doesn’t want to come here, it’s all right as well.”

“No, she will like it.”

Ryan was sure that his sister would like it.
It was his sister who urged him to come in the morning.

Elysia and Ryan went to find the butler.

The butler was surprised that he was a commoner living in District 4, and that he would be escorting Elysia as her entourage in the future.

He thought that Ryan would not have been a nobleman, but he couldn’t imagine him living in District 4.

It might have been because he had a neat appearance and a calm atmosphere.

“He’ll stay in the annex in the future.
Prepare it well.”

The butler’s mind went fast.
There was a lot to do, starting from his clothing to a knight’s ceremony.

He was going to be the escort of the Duke’s Lady.

He also had to teach basic etiquette.

The butler sees Elysia, who often drops bombshell news these days, and feels the vacancy of the Duke and Young Master more than anyone else.

“All right.
You stay here.”

Elysia left Ryan to the butler and headed to her room.

Though she told Ryan that she was fine, she was actually exhausted since she has not fully recovered.

***

After returning to his home and taking a shower, Cassian leaned over to the sensation felt in his own bedroom.

‘She didn’t say that she was coming today.’

He knew that today, Elysia met the Crown Prince.

Cassian thought something had happened when she went to see the Crown Prince, so he sent Lloyd to follow her and went into the bedroom.

With Elysia sitting on his sofa, she waved her hand at him.

“You’re here?”

“Is your body okay?”

“Thanks.
Thank you very much for that day.”

“I hope it doesn’t happen again in the future.”

Cassian knew that Elysia had brought the man she saved that day into her mansion.
So, he was curious about their relationship since she removed the poison by sucking it out of him.

He was wondering if he should ask, raising his hand and sweeping his head.

It was unfamiliar to him that he was worried about this in the first place.

Cassian couldn’t think deeply about the words that followed.

“Hmm? Which one? Are you talking about the situation where I have to drink human blood?”

“No.
Putting yourself in danger.
You will soon be the Mistress of Esteban Duchy.”

“I thought you were worried about me.
I guess not.” Elysia closed her eyes and laughed.

Although it is temporary, she felt quite comfortable because she thought Cassian was on her side.

‘No, but why aren’t you drying your hair?’

Elysia dissatisfiedly puffed her cheeks.

Wet hair and unfastened buttons on his shirt.

The red eyes slowly descended from Cassian’s hair to his chest.

“Shall I unfasten more?”

“Fasten it more.”

“I had to take it off because it’s hot.” Cassian smiled languidly and leaned his body toward Elysia.

Elysia leaned her back more as he approached her.

She thought it was fortunate that there was a table between Cassian and her.

‘I need to get used to his appearance.
If it weren’t for his body scent…’

It wasn’t her style to reject a man who fits her taste perfectly.
It was a contract, but they were about to get married.

There are no restrictions on doing skinship, but she can’t touch him.

Of course, she and Cassian didn’t have an agreement on that when writing the contract.

However, there was no item about not touching, so should they just accept that it’s okay?

“…Sad.”

“What?”

“I’m just talking to myself.”

Skinship would almost lead to a vampire lust, so she couldn’t even think of touching him.

She wanted to refrain as long as she could while she continued to feed on the blood of animals even though it was tasteless.

Elysia was thinking not to make things to go that extent that she would need to drink Cassian’s blood.

“I heard you met the Prince today.”

“The news travels fast.”

“I want you to refrain from going to the Palace by yourself.”

Elysia nodded her head.

She knew that if today’s event spread out, bad news would follow, too.
Since she is engaged to the Duke of Esteban, and she still met the prince.

Elysia went as carefully as possible, so it might be all right for now, but she didn’t know next time.

As if he had noticed what she was worried about, Cassian added his words.

“Today’s event didn’t spread, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

“I won’t go back, but I’ll be careful.”

“Then, it doesn’t mean that it’s because of that.
What brings you here?”

“Ah! I forgot.
It’s no big deal.
I don’t know if you’ve heard, but I’m going to participate as a representative of the Magic Tower in this upcoming monster subjugation.”

Cassian raised his eyebrows.

There was a memory that Lloyd reported to him this morning.
However, he didn’t hear him saying that the wizard belonging to the tower was Elysia.

Cassian was more than happy with Lloyd’s work until just a while ago.

Lloyd, who had been preoccupied with leaving work early after a long time, felt scared for some reason.

“I came because I thought I should tell you in advance.”

“Do you have any experience dealing with monsters? It could be dangerous.”

“There will be no harm to others.”

“I mean, you might be in danger.
I’ll be careful as much as I can, but there are limits.
Though, is there a reason you should go to defeat monsters?”

Elysia didn’t answer right away and pondered.

There were various reasons for participating in this monster subjugation.

Trying to show that she is strong even if she is a little overwhelmed and trying to deal with monsters in advance as preparation for the future.

“I’m just the support from the tower.
That’s all.”

Cassian’s purple eyes looked at her as if they were gauging her.

He didn’t think Elysia was really lying, but he could see that there was something more.

“If there are situations in which you are in danger, I should know.”

“Well, will that ever happen? I don’t think so.”

Elysia truly thought so.

She knew that this monster subjugation wasn’t very dangerous, and the wizards basically only used magic behind the knights, so there was nothing particularly dangerous.

Even if a sudden situation occurred, she would have avoided it.

Cassian had given up, knowing that Elysia had no intention of answering.

“The meeting is two days later.”

“I know.
I’ll see you that day.”

As Elysia nodded her head, she saw Cassian’s bandaged wrist in her sight.
The wound on his finger as well.

Elysia raised her body and sat down next to Cassian.

“Hmm?” She left the puzzled Cassian alone and raised his hand.

Cassian’s hand was too pretty to say that it was the hand of a knight holding a sword.

Elysia’s finger swept his remaining fingers.

“Are you seducing me?”

“That’s what you’re doing.”

A sincere heart was popping from Elysia, who was looking at his wounds.

Cassian grabbed Elysia’s hand as the touch of her finger tickled.

He bowed his head and went closer to Elysia.
Cassian opened his mouth, whispered in her ear.

“Well, I was told that my existence itself is a temptation.”

Did I even say that?

Elysia looked back at the memories of the day, eagerly spending her night with him.

It seemed that the rare memories had been cut off.
What the hell did you talk about?

“I have a question.”

“I won’t answer you.”

“Even now, my scent to you…” Elysia raised her hand and closed his mouth.

‘You know how much I want to eat you… Wait, do you already know?’

Elysia stared at him with a fierce look.
She wanted to cry.

***

At the entrance to the Imperial Palace, a carriage with the emblem of Duke Lowell stood.

The woman who descended under the escort of the knight guarding the entrance was not wearing a dress but a white robe using magic.

The emblem of the tower, embroidered with gold thread, indicated her affiliation.

The white robe and her silver hair were harmonized, and the strange atmosphere peculiar to Elysia was more prominent.

Elysia headed to the conference hall under the guidance of an attendant sent by Cassian.

He had more people than she thought.

Elysia was the last one, only one seat was empty.

People in brown robes were sitting around the seat.
They were Imperial wizards.

As she sat down, she saw a curly blonde fluttering from the seat next to her.

‘Why is she here?’

It was the female protagonist, Lumiere Blanche.

Lumiere wasn’t very good, but she still was an assistant wizard of the Imperial Ministry of Magic.

She doesn’t think it’s time for her to attend yet.

She had to attend the next subjugation instead of this one, and she was not supposed to be enrolled in the Imperial Ministry of Magic at this time.

Lumiere, who felt Elysia’s gaze, smiled brightly and said with a small voice.

“Greetings, Lady Lowell.
I’m Lumiere, from the Blanche Marquisate.”

“Nice to meet you.”

Considering that, at the time Elysia broke up with Levos, the original story has already played, so she may not have to pay much attention.

If Lumiere participates in the subjugation this time, it will be a little delayed for her to connect with Revos, but it would still be the same since Revos still have lingering feelings for Elysia.

‘But you still have to face each other.’

The two protagonists must continue to face each other so that they can feel the fateful attraction.

If Lumiere had already registered as a magician at this time of year, she would have become too busy.

‘She will continue to visit the Imperial Palace, so it will have a good effect.’

Lumiere glanced at Elysia, bowed her head, and whispered a little.

“Lady, I really wanted to see you.
Please call me Lumiere comfortably.”

Elysia was embarrassed by the attack of her beauty suddenly popping in.

Several knights attending the meeting were also blushing while glancing at Lumiere.

“Calling your name is a little… Let’s take it slow.”

She had no idea why she was so friendly.

‘Is it a big deal?’

Elysia was confused by the sudden appearance of Lumiere, but she soon shook it off.

We could find out what happened later.

She decided to put her headache aside for a while and focus on the meeting.

Elysia was very uncomfortable as there was a lot of attendance at the conference hall and her distance from Cassian.

‘Yes, what about the meeting.
Let’s see what you like.’

Elysia’s gaze began to follow Cassian.

Cassian sighed at her sparkling gaze and swept his hair.
