33 – Casting out the wicked woman
Saying shocking words to Eran, Shael took Eran to the Azbel family’s restaurant.
Eran just followed Shael in a panic. After eating the cooked catfish, Shael and Eran returned to the room again.
Shael reminded him of the book that was supposed to be covered with a blanket.
—-After that, suggest that the other person go to sleep.
Did you suggest going to sleep? Shael recalled this and said to Eran.
“Go to bed.”
“Yes? ⋯⋯Yes.”
I really hate it, but it was mentioned in the book. It was also a part that was emphasized as being really important.
Ignoring her fiancé, who was riding like an idiot, Shael headed to her bed. Lifting off the blanket, she reached out her hand for her book.

To figure out what to do next. It was Shael who hadn’t read the latter part yet.
She opened the book and began to read.
ㅡIf the opponent accepts this…
It was the sound of Shael tearing the book to shreds while reading the back story. Before I knew it, the shape of the book had changed beyond recognition.
If she had known it would be like this, she would have beaten her from the start.
It was the back story that anyone could have predicted, but it wasn’t for Shael. She was a Sael who had no interest in dating at all.
She just thoughtlessly regrets her past that she followed this book, and she could only think of how to get rid of Eran.

A torn book placed in front of Sael. And Sael, who is absent-minded and absent-minded.
Then Shael came to her senses and told me.
“⋯ Go see it.”
“Didn’t you tell me to go to sleep earlier?”
“⋯⋯Go.”
A villain who keeps changing her words. This isn’t even my house, so I’d just go, but…
I feel like I shouldn’t go there for some reason. Adding to that, she seemed disgusted by the sudden change of words.
You embarrassed me by saying you were going to sleep, and now you’re kicking me out coldly?
There’s no way I’ll go out quietly. I said, pointing to the piece of paper Shael was hiding behind her body with her hand.
“Is it because of that book from before?”
“⋯Never, no.”
Shael shook her head in denial. She must have strongly denied it in her own way, but it was obvious that it was a lie.
That book was the reason for Sael’s erratic behavior.
“Then, can I have a look?”
It was Shael who covered the torn book at my words. It was clear that that book was a disgrace to Shael.
“⋯No.”
“I won’t see you if you let me go to sleep.”
“⋯.”
She was a villain who glared at me with those words. Thinking that the wicked woman might burn the book, I cast a protection spell on the book.
Seeing this, Shael looked at the book in bewilderment. Now, Shael has no choice.
When I acted as if I was checking the torn pieces of a book, Shael had no choice but to give in.
“⋯ Then, go to another room and sleep.”
“I don’t like it.”
Then, as I was about to walk towards the scraps of books, Shael stopped me in a fright.
It was my victory.
That’s how I was able to be in Shael’s room. Normally, it would have already been time to leave Sael’s room.
To be honest, I think I acted like a bit too much trash, but ⋯⋯ The Villainess also did something to me, she struggled to rationalize.
Anyway, everyone in the Azbel family would know this if they slept in another room.
It was also a good thing for the wicked woman that rumors about Sael suggesting that I sleep at Azbel Street did not spread.
⋯ No, will rumors spread even if I sleep here?
I don’t know.
There was also a huge sofa in Sael’s room. I walked over to the sofa and sat down.
If she declared that she would sleep on the bed like in the Mage’s Tower, it was almost certain that Shael, who had been patient with her, would leave her room. She was thinking about leaving her room even now.
Because the situation was different from the Mage’s Tower, which was cursed after leaving.
It’s a pity that I have to sleep on the sofa, but I still have things to do.
Shael was already lying on the bed. Oddly enough, she didn’t lie down with her back to me.
Shael lay down so he could see me. Normally, he would sleep with his back turned because he didn’t want to see me.
“⋯What is it?”
“What is it?”
“Why are you lying down looking this way?”
“I did it because I thought I was going to do something weird, so don’t worry.”
Ah, was it like that? I told the villain who treats me like a weirdo.
“Isn’t it because you like me?”
To be honest, it was a bit embarrassing, but it was a good word for the villain.
At that, Shael glared at me and turned her body to lie down.
Anyway, she was an easy-going villain.
Looking closely at Sael, I could see that she was a bit unexpected.
It was a doll that protruded a little out of the blanket Sael was covering.
I think I slept next to him even in the Magic Tower. Could it be that he has always been like that?
It was completely unsuitable for Sael.
Some time has passed. Soft breathing came from Shael. At the same time, I used a magic that could block out sound.
It was magic that erased the sounds coming from objects within a certain range.
Then I started using magic that wouldn’t damage the room.
Even if I used the sound blocking magic, I was able to properly control the power because I could hear the blocked sound as much as I, the magic caster.
The magic training at night was what he had been doing since he was injured by the owner of the mage tower. At least in the morning, training was not enough.
After breakfast, I came to see Shael, so I didn’t have time to practice magic. That’s why I started practicing while reducing my sleep.
Drowsiness pours in before I know it. I, too, leaned back on the sofa and began to fall into soma.
*
The sunlight breaks through the window. The huge windows lit up Sael’s room. I immediately got up from the sofa.
It was a bit early to wake up. Considering what he had slept in the Magic Tower, there was no way that Shael would wake up at this time.
It will take a few more hours to wake up.
After stretching, use the sound blocking magic.
Then it was time to start practicing magic. I could feel movement from Shael.
The sleepy Shael was awake. I said to Shael. Of course, there was no need to turn off the sound blocking spell.
Sound blocking magic only erases the sounds coming from objects within a certain range.
If it’s not the voice that can be heard through some kind of communication magic, it won’t even block the voice of a real person.
“Are you awake?”
“Yes, so go now.”
Shael kicked me out right away. Even so, Shael was still lying down.
I was going to leave the room right away, just as Sael said. It would be a bit of a headache if someone found out sleeping in Sael’s room.
Two 20-year-old men and women sleeping in the same room?
It was obvious what kind of misunderstanding it would cause.
“Yes, I will. But unlike in the Mage Tower, you woke up early today.”
“⋯.”
Despite my words, Shael remains still. Normally, Shael would have made an excuse that he only woke up late in the Magic Tower.
Something was strange.
I approached Shael. Then he put his hand on Shael’s forehead. It was hot like a fireball.
Yesterday, for some reason, I felt like I had to sleep here.
Anyway, this seemed to be the reason. Without me, the villainess would have endured her pain all by herself.
A villain who only thinks of her own interests ⋯ Strangely, she only turns into a fool when she is sick.
Unless you have holy power, healing magic through magic cannot cure a cold like this.
If you inform Duke Jespen of this, he’ll find someone with holy power right away… But Shael won’t like it.
If it’s the Duke of Jespen who is worried, he might bring a lot of people with him.
Is Shael suffering alone? She doesn’t need to treat her Sael because she ignores what Sael is rejecting.
I’d rather be by your side to take care of you.
Using the towel in Sael’s room and my magic, I put a cool towel on Sael’s forehead.
Then he even started using magic to make him feel comfortable.
At this rate, the pain caused by a cold should have disappeared. Only the stuffy energy will remain.
However, Sael said to me, frowning her face more than before.
“⋯I’ve never asked for anything like this, so please go.”
Is the villainess also in a bad mood taking care of me? But even this could not be followed. Shael spoke again.
“You don’t need it, so get rid of the magic.”
Shael refuses my favor.
I wanted to take out at least a snake orb containing the evil woman’s dark history, but it was a bit like doing that to a sick person.
Instead of that, I said.
“Don’t worry, I’m not doing this because of you. It’s because of magic practice. Coincidentally, there was a perfect practice partner.”
I said it, but it was nonsense that didn’t sound like words at all. I feel a bit ashamed too.
“Practice with something else⋯⋯.”
“I don’t like it.”
Shael let out a sigh at her impudence. Before Sael repeated it to me again, I spoke first.
In this situation, all I had to do was attack. I pointed to the doll placed next to Shael and asked.
“Rather than that, what is this doll?”
“⋯.”
It was a doll with one eye sewn up that I gave you.
“Never mind.”
“I am just glad that you have a meaning for what I gave you and keep it like this.”
At my words, the villainess had no choice but to shut her mouth and be silent.
So successfully I was able to stop the villain from trying to contradict me.
It was at that time that a faint vibration rang out of my pocket.
It was the bracelet that the heroine, Clie, gave me. She kept the bracelet in her pocket just in case.
The female lead’s surveillance was the reason. It would make me feel bad if he was watching Sael and me through the bracelet.
Clié could only hear Shael’s voice and me through the bracelet.
I didn’t pay much attention to that, as it was written in the novel that I could only tell whose voice it was, but couldn’t hear the details.
A vibration was echoing from that bracelet. Then someone’s voice was heard. That voice belonged to Clea.
ㅡEran, can we meet today?
A friendly tone. Even… No words of honor were attached to my name. Unlike when I handed over the bracelet.
It was a word that felt like something.
