Chapter 78.
The top of my head that I was looking at came to me late in the day, realizing what was going on.
“Are we… is this lucky? Falling off a cliff.”
“There’s a waterfall below the cliff. It’s only because we fell into the river that we survived.”
The Crown Prince said “I came out carrying you, who fainted, and found a hole nearby.”
I then looked around carefully. We now had a campfire lit not far from the entrance.
The rain seemed to have stopped, but looking out the sun had already set and there was not a single ray of light to be seen. Only the sporadic sound of clear running water just made it feel like there was a waterfall next to us.
I looked back into the cave again. It was very deep cave, with a shadowy layer stretching outward from it
“Here you go …… What if it’s an animal’s domain? What if the snakes ……
Some detached thoughts flashed through the mind. Groping for the stone bow that had been placed next to it, he immediately remembered the fact that he had run out of beads in order to kill the assassin.
This was no place for an animal to hide. The Crown Prince’s face was very pale.
While falling asleep, I looked at the Crown Prince.
“… Do you know where the exit is.”
I asked the most important thing first. Because even though it’s impossible to move after the sun goes down, it’s important to return as soon as possible after dawn. I had high hopes for someone from the palace, but he shook his head very reluctantly.
Sighing, he said “Every time, the hunting tournament is held in the woods to the north, but I didn’t even know there was such a place.”
Now it’s time to go out of order, right, thinking of the disappearing me and the Crown Prince in the woods.
With a very complicated heart, I looked at the Crown Prince. There’s a wound where blood has dried on one of his shoulders that’s reflected by the campfire. It was the place where the commendation was brought on.
At the same time, I remembered how he was stabbed by the assassin before falling from the cliff.
“Is the body …… okay?”
Despite being injured, he brought the unconscious me here with instant body injuries.
Cynically speaking, I’m embarrassed.
In fact it’s probably because I know the male lead won’t die, so there isn’t much passion.
“Badly injured? Let me see.”
I was about to get up from my seat in order to see the wound, but the guy stopped me coldly.
“It’s not too deep because I’m wearing a cotton shirt. Just a little bit of blood was seen.
It’s already a blessing. But when I heard “bleeding”, my brows tightened.
“Gotta get back for treatment soon.”
“You must be worried, right?”
“Of course I am.”
I replied in a serious manner. Of course, it wasn’t a worry about humans.
“Don’t die in front of me.”
Because I’m the only one I’m worried about. If you want to die, go to the damn place. Don’t die in front of me ……
It was then that I muttered in my mind to be careful. Then realized that my words might sound strange to him, and my face burned.
It sounded like don’t ever die well!
Naturally, I panicked and digressed.
“It’s late, but thanks for saving me.”
No matter what, what should be acknowledged should be acknowledged. Callisto was injured instead of me. Plus falling off a cliff and saving me here as well.
Isn’t it a bit off the level of something going wrong if you run into me?
The image of the madman who stuck the knife in his neck and questioned me so vividly to this day looked at him and collided head-on with Callisto’s eyeballs. That guy stared at me with a blank face. The face becomes slightly handsome, let’s divert our eyes to check the favorability first.
[Favorability 27%]
The favorability has risen. He poofed the corners of his mouth in a pout.
“If you thank me so much, then fall in love with me again.”
I frowned for a moment at the guy’s obstinacy that started again.
“Is that voice again?”
Isn’t this time just the right reason for the male female to like me?
“Not at all.”
I answered immediately. It was just too boring at this point, so I asked again.
“Why are you so obsessed with hearing my reasons?
His persistence ended there, and he even wrote the threatening letter “Don’t forget the agreement to tell him the reason.”
Faced with my question, the Crown Prince’s expression was even more absurd than mine.
“I really want to know why the male daughter suddenly liked me and confessed her love that day, I just can’t stand it.”
“That…”
I can’t say that I wanted to die for the sake of knowing if there would be a “return button”.
I said, in tears of blood to avoid a momentary crisis, to my past who had told me all that gibberish.
“I’m probably delirious. I’m sorry, Your Highness.”
“Ha.”
The Crown Prince sneered.
He said “I forgot about the wound on top to take a reason, and waited for weeks only to suddenly change and become nasty, would the male daughter be angry if she was?”
I was tempted to retort to him, ‘Who do you think caused the wound up there?’
But I didn’t want to relive that horrible scene from that day. So only changed the ghostly words that I wanted to say.
“… It wasn’t hurt.”
“Is it okay then?”
“No!” I was so angry that I changed my words again.
“Then ask the reason for suddenly becoming annoying. I can talk to you about those reasons all day!”
But the crown prince bared his teeth and dressed like a ghost.
“Because of the blasphemy against the royal family, it’s a really good topic to talk to you alone in the torture chamber of the palace’s underground prison. Isn’t it?”
Scary guy…
I was dumbfounded and closed my mouth.
A shady silence descended in the unnerving cave. While looking at the side of the dancing campfire, I pondered how on earth it became like this.
“… Hated it?”
The Prince, who had been very quiet, suddenly asked.
“…?” I was suddenly asked why I was so annoyed.
“I heard it was blasphemy against the royal family. I’ll spare you this one time, you can try it.”
I look at him sparingly, and my face goes cold.
Is it? If that’s the case, this guy is the guy who can use the power of the world.
“You tried to kill me.”
He said I could be forgiven, and I decisively pounced on his reasoning. It was the same reason he had asked me countless times to begin with. As a matter of common sense, what crazy woman would like a madman who wants to kill her?
But the Crown Prince expressed complete ignorance at my answer.
“When will I?” ।
Me, when ……?
Couldn’t be so ridiculous. I suddenly opened my mouth and screamed violently.
“That day, the day of the Second Crown Prince’s Birthday Banquet!” In the labyrinth, the crown prince was about to cut off my neck with a knife! That’s why I could have had all sorts of nightmares for days on end without disclosure. If wrapping the stick around my neck really looked like a sick person, then it wouldn’t be too much of a reproach with the Duke and Derek.
“That’s…” The Crown Prince listened to my words with very little panic.
“… It wasn’t to kill you.”
I couldn’t bear to say him, my eyes unflinching. There were so many deaths in the labyrinth while playing the game that it was impossible to channel the Crown Prince.
“It was really a time when I was in a mood like a dog. Because I didn’t see it, I drew my sword without knowing who appeared in front of me.”
The Crown Prince who knew what I was thinking embellished as if in defense.
“Even so, after hearing the male female say she liked my voice she became interested, didn’t it save you nicely?”
… Truly with trembling hands and feet and tears in his eyes, “I am truly terrified, Your Highness.”
“Is that sarcasm?”
“No way.”
I returned a painful retort and turned my head. However, the Crown Prince had no idea that his attitude of trying to break off the conversation was over.
“Then tell us why you fell in love with me as well.” Wasn’t it already said at that time.
I took a deep breath and muttered to myself in a tired voice…
“Outstanding appearance, bravery, can use the sword well ……”
“Don’t speak from the heart. Do you think I’m an invalid without eyes?”
At my insincere attitude, the Crown Prince looked at me with red eyes.
“You make that kind of expression as soon as you see my face, and you still want me to believe it?”
“What’s wrong with my expression?
“Isn’t it the face that chewed grass? ”
Seeing it too clearly, there’s nothing to say. Looking at me who lost my horse, the Crown Prince convinced me with a soft voice.
“Tell the truth. Who coerced me to kill me if I didn’t confess?” I don’t think I even know why I uttered that kind of profanity at that point, but I just kept asking why, and what answer I eventually got.
” . . . . . . ”
I looked at the seething crown prince, glaring at him absentmindedly as if he was going to crush me, and turned to deadpan utterance.
“… It’s because it’s the crown prince’s hair.”
