“Honestly, I don’t know what fun is in a masquerade.”
From noble mtl dot com.
He uses magic to change his appearance so that he cannot be recognized, and then enjoys it.
The value of a person is traits, that is, talent and ability first, and isn’t the second appearance?
Those two things are undoubtedly God-given possessions.
Pedigree is a basic requirement that is essential regardless of value.
“today… You’re leaving for some other reason.”
“Well, I’m not going out to play.”
Looking in the mirror, Verbüte tapped her fingers to add volume to her wavy hair.
“That damn fool is going to roast and boil.”
So it’s more regrettable. How much the magic on the mask would ruin one’s appearance.
Verbütte, who was pursed lips, held out her hand in an elegant motion, and put a thin metal bracelet on her white and soft wrist.
“Is this the Perception Disruption Invalid Artifact?”
As she shook her slender wrist as if it were illuminated by a light, the girl who was fixing Verbutt’s hair answered.
“yes. It is said that it contained only a small amount of mana elaborately enough not to fall under the artifact test. Instead, if you use it for one day, it will break.”
Verbute asked, casually tapping the bracelet.
“And I roughly memorized the appearance of that maniac. Any way to tell them apart?”
“Hydrangea scented candles, which Verbut-sama likes, are subtly lit throughout the inn, so if you go nearby, you can easily spot them.”
‘… he said. It’s hard to tell them apart because of the taste.’
At the moment when I thought I should tear my mouth open once Verbute returned.
A faint scent of hydrangeas wafted from someone passing by.
As he reflexively turns his body and touches the bracelet, he sees a black-haired, brown-eyed man with gorgeous blonde hair and blue eyes.
‘found.’
An arrogant smile at the corners of his lips, whether he was aware of it or not.
An arrogant gaze that seemed to despise the other person to their very soul.
‘On the subject of a foolish man without a rattle.’
As if they were members of the royal family, or even more.
Looking at those cheeky eyes, Verbut opened his mouth.
“for a moment… Can we talk?”
lovingly, harmlessly.
Looking like that, I got a win at grabbing the opponent.
Skin that looks like it will ooze when you touch it, and hair like cotton candy that melts when you touch your lips.
I don’t know anything. The eternal child, young and untainted by filth.
So feel bad for me. because this is the place
‘But the end will be in my hands.’
Verbütt was confident. Even if he was wearing a mask enchanted with perception-disrupting magic.
Because he is Berbut.
“I’m good.”
look at this
Verbüth laughed inwardly at the face that met his eyes and smiled.
All he has is the majesty of the Kruger family and a smooth face.
But now my bite-sized meal.
Verbute smiled slightly.
hiding the predator’s claws.
If you make him your own, Adelian, you’ll be able to achieve results that aren’t as bad as getting your hands on Guardia.
“It’s embarrassing when there are a lot of people… … .”
So, if I lure him to a quiet place, pretend to share a drink, and make him swallow a sleeping pill, it will fall into my hands in no time.
Adelian laughed as he said, slightly flushing his cheeks and putting his hand to his mouth, trembling in anticipation of grabbing it.
“I am against it.”
Isn’t that a pervert?
Verbite, whose mask was about to break at the moment, regained his composure and looked up with moist eyes and whispered.
“then… Can’t we just go to a darker place?”
What man can refuse
“Yeah, no.”
That guy is not a man.
Are you going to ruin the smirking smile, at least the smooth face?
Watching Adelian caressing his cheek with his fingertips, Verbuth trembled to contain his anger.
“That’s no fun.”
fun… … .
Aren’t you having fun?
Dare, half a penny like you. If you throw away everything you have, the only thing left is your face, a mediocre thing.
How dare you talk fun to me?
The moment when Verbüth was consumed with anger and tried to use his hand to leave this place as a ballroom.
As if he knew that he was going to die, he immediately turned around and walked away, and Verbütte belatedly started chasing him.
“Now, wait.”
“Because persistent people are unattractive to men and women of all ages, right?”
I grabbed my wrist, but that was only for a moment.
Seeing the back of her as she jerked away from me and almost ran away at a brisk pace, Verbüth realized that when her anger reached its climax, she became rather dazed.
“Puff… It must have been a car.”
“If you look closely, you can see through the magic of the mask and see the ugly side?”
And all of a sudden, ridicule pours down on Verbute who was left there.
At that, Verbütt jerked around, and when he turned around, everyone turned their gazes and whispered among themselves.
‘later… I’m going to kill them all.’
First of all, from that idiot named Adelian.
Restriction that only those who have received an invitation can enter.
And Verbut’s confidence.
For those two reasons, Verbüth regretted not having many church members in this ballroom.
‘Damn it, where are you?’
After disappearing like that, probably faster than it looks, after a while, Berbut, who escaped from the mental shock, urged the few members of the church that existed here to find Adelian again. .
I wasn’t the physically strong type, so after walking around for a while, I was out of breath.
‘If caught, on the spot! No, no.’
Considering the humiliation he received, killing him at once is not worth it.
The time when Verbütt was gnashing his teeth and looking around.
Adelian caught my eye as she hurriedly walked across the garden to get into the carriage.
“Hey, hey. Let’s talk.”
The moment Berbut, who was in a hurry, grabbed Adelian’s wrist, his arrogant gaze deepened.
“What conversation.”
Adelian opened his mouth again while laughing at the cold tone.
“Do you have anything else to talk about in a place like this?”
“Let’s go to a place where it’s just the two of us.”
That’s why I’ll let you taste more pain than dragging you to death by force.
Verbüth’s insidiousness spilled out of his eyes.
And did you notice it?
Instead of answering with his mouth, Adelian immediately shook off Verbut’s hand and started running.
‘That guy?’
“Hey, wait!”
I-Did I leave that etiquette at the inn? How can you be so rude when Lady talks to you like this!
Verbutt stared at it in bewilderment, and belatedly chased after it, grinding his molars, but the moment he turned around the corner of the maze-like garden, Adelian disappeared as if he was nowhere to be found.
“this… You damn bastard!”
In the end, Berbutt, filled with rage, couldn’t stand it and screamed.

“I actually believed that nothing would happen.”
“Clean up what is on your lips first.”
The Siren contacted Luna and joined a small square a little further inside from the outskirts.
It seems that Luna, Leaf, and Rachel were eating lunch there.
I know very well that I wasn’t worried enough to wait on the bench next to the small fountain, forgetting my packed lunch.
“Is it delicious?”
“Want some?”
Should Zero go straight to the dorm, or should he follow Kane’s trail and come here to join me.
Come to think of it, I didn’t fix it.
“The Bocchan and Kane are here.”
―Here’s the juice, too, manager.
“thank you.”
Shall we have a late-night snack and wait for Zero? I sat down and took a big bite of the egg-tomato sandwich Luna gave me.
The tomatoes were lightly parboiled, so there was no skin that caught on the tongue, and the basil was added to stir-fry for a long time.
‘Did you bake the bread with butter once?’
Stir-frying tomatoes and basil without any special sauce and just simmering them down gives them a bit of sourness and the seasoning is just right. This is delicious.
“Is it delicious?”
I don’t know why I took a bigger bite without saying anything, but Rachel asks proudly.
“Did you make it?”
“no! Go zero!”
But why are you proud?
I smiled and pushed mine to Kane, who quickly devoured the two pieces as if it suited my taste, but I heard footsteps in an alley a short distance away.
“It is too much.”
“I’m here?”
In this situation where Zero protests how he could leave him alone, ‘Hey, the sandwich you made was delicious.’ Would you complain more?
I repeated ‘Yes, I was wrong’ and started walking toward the dorm to digest food.
“How was the prom? Was it fun?”
“Not at all. My body is soaked with perfume, so I want to take a shower, junior Rachel.”
Rachel walks shoulder to shoulder with Zero, as if curious about what happened inside, and Kane walks with Leaf, transforming each other’s auras into little people and sparring in the air.
Then Luna walks up to me and puts her nose near my shoulder and pretends to sniff.
“Do I smell perfume too?”
In the first place, as soon as I entered, the mansion smelled sweet. It’s also intentionally sweet.
So, it will permeate both my body and the bodies of Kane and Zero.
“It smells like flowers along with the unpleasant smell of incense.”
“Lily scent?”
I asked, thinking of Payyan, but Luna shook her head slowly.
“Actually, except for the young master, everything comes from our bodies. Amadou… … .”
From noble mtl dot com.
“It’s true that you know that the Church reached out to the inn, so that’s it, right?”
Luna and Zero. Even though Leaf was always tidying up the room and incinerating all of our hair, fakes of us using doppelganger potions came out every once in a while.
Rather than thinking that I picked up things like hair that I naturally lost while going out, it would be faster to pick up things that we often dropped while walking around at the inn.
He knocked there every now and then and said once to the inn that no one would come, but he probably didn’t know much about it either.
I guess I’ll have to move it somewhere else. It was the capital, so finding a house right away was difficult in many ways.
“hydrangea… incense? It smells like hydrangea. however… … .”
After thinking for a while, Luna tilted her head as if she recognized the scent on my body, and sniffed the sleeve of Luna’s own clothes.
“Hydrangea scent that is thicker than the scent that we have become accustomed to.”
He reminded me of Verbut.
“Ah, someone from the church approached me.”
Since they held my wrists and attached themselves to me, they must have buried them then.
Somehow I felt uncomfortable, so I patted my clothes and arms off, and Luna smiled slightly and asked.
“What do you look like?”
Should I write it down when I think of it?
I took out a notepad and a quill from the subspace and opened my mouth, writing in Korean so that only I could recognize it.
“Brown wavy hair, brown eyes, and he’s about this tall.”
As I waved the air with the blade of my hand, Luna stood under my palm as if comparing her height.
It looks like she was a little taller than Luna.
“She wasn’t that big because she was a girl.”
“aha.”
Maybe it was because they were talking like that and almost arrived in front of the inn before they knew it.
Kane picks up the memo I spilled without my knowledge, and our eyes meet.
“It is not a public text. what.”
“Why?”
Rachel takes the memo that Kane picked up and then touches her chin with a um.
“It’s not a fairy letter, it’s not a magic letter.”
“Give it to me.”
Of course not. I took back the memo written in Korean about Verbut’s appearance and traits.
“Is it a letter you made up?”
Cain asks as he throws it back into the subspace along with the quill.
I didn’t make it, but I’ll be the only one using it on this continent.
“Something similar.”
I’m sorry, King Sejong the Great. However, it is a place where I can’t talk about the Great King, so this is a really unavoidable situation.
I was about to gloss over it, but Kane twisted the corner of his mouth very slightly.
“Then why don’t you let me know when the time is right? If there are texts that only we know about, wouldn’t we have something to write about later?”
Why is Kane giving all his opinions?
As I entered the inn room, I took a deep breath and answered casually.
“So what?”
