I just ran a little bit and look back down the corridor in the west wing.

I was forced out of the room, but there's no sign of anyone coming after me.

That's all I've been telling you about the danger of the castle. Your brother won't be able to fly out of the room irresponsibly either. I'm sure he's blocking the door with puffiness and anger. You're the one who's irresponsible, I don't know what to say. I can only see a future where they drop you.

... In this situation right now, I can't help but think about the future, okay?

Next, head to the central building library. Of course, to see the Duke.

I was wary of any suspicious shadows looking for Serenia or Mr. Risel, but the hallway is as shitty as it was earlier.

In the end, through previous loops, I never felt the shadows of the assassins except Ines.

Though I said that earlier.

The truth is, I think we should find out exactly where the assassins are lurking.

Mr. Arge said I was the starting point for the loop. And I'm (indirectly) being targeted for my life by a suspicious assassination group. I'm sure the cause of the loop has something to do with these assassins.

But what if you poorly inspire the assassins and someone gets hurt? What if someone dies?

... Suppose the events of original history included someone's death as well?

Ms Arge said that in the past, future events could not be changed.

So maybe my behavior of just letting anyone die is driving this loop in the wrong direction.

But I'm sick of pain and sadness already.

If there's only a future ahead of us where someone dies, gets hurt, or suffers, I'll turn you down from this future. What did you know about the distortion of time and space?

I'll have a time that I'm comfortable with.

So breathing, I grabbed the door knob of the door of purpose.

"Excuse me!

When I opened the library door, there was the Duke, as usual.

To my appearance, the Duke opens his eyes, and for some reason he is utterly silent. Although I'm sorry to surprise you, I first moved one of the sofas in the center to the front of the door to ensure safety and prevent intrusion by the disturbers. This can't be called iron wall protection, but it should make breaking in from the outside somewhat more difficult......

In the meantime, anyone who could get hurt has been able to push them together into my room. I decided not to let anyone die this time, so I kept Angry Ines and Mr. Risel alive, too.

After that, keeping the Duke inside the library makes my cage castle operation perfect.

Originally, this guy was supposed to be sleeping in Mr. Riselle's room, and it seems unlikely he'll be targeted by a dreameater.

I broke into the room without saying no and moved the furniture on my own, but there was no way the Duke would be angry with my oddity. As for him, he had more to worry about.

"Wait. Better not move too much in that outfit."

"... that"

I drop my gaze on my clothes when I'm told. While I was dressed like none of them.

The dress has a billy hem and some have bold slits. Though I have hardly seen my underwear, my proud leg, which has also beaten my assassin (Ines) opponent, is a grand hello.

I wonder what sight was spreading in his eyes, though I kicked Mr. Riselle around in this condition.

... Let's not think about it.

"... take this"

The Duke walks over here taking off the robe that was feather-woven and sticks it out towards me.

The gaze was gentlemanly, towards the day after tomorrow.

"Thank you, thank you..."

I got more and more embarrassed, and I also received my robe without looking at the Duke. Hurry through the sleeves, the warmth of the Duke is still there, and this once again invincibly builds up shame.

"... why are you in this room?

"Eh. I asked around Mr. Riselle."

"Right."

I feel like I've had this interaction before.

To answer lightly, the Duke looked harsh and stopped saying anything.

I understood in previous loops that the person in front of me is not very good at chatting. Finally, I have already discovered the shocking fact that this rugged look, this attitude that avoids me, is simply shy, both over here and embarrassing.

But when I'm in this itchy air, my mouth won't even know what to say.

... but. Now this could be my last chance to talk to this guy.

Even if it doesn't dawn, I've decided not to regret it. You can't kill an important time with such silence.

"Um, Duke. Will you talk to me?"

"Talking?

"To me! Do you have anything to say!

Pressed by momentum, the Duke lags behind just a little.

He looked at this one with a sinister face, but when I said "talk" in aura, he opened his mouth after a little thought.

"... why are you dressed like that?

Oh, no!

"Not that kind of questionable story in front of me. More like this. You have a story to tell me, don't you?

I know it would be easy to carry things if I told you what you think, just as I included Mr. Riselle.

But I hate to say it. I want to hear this guy's feelings out of his mouth again and give him a proper answer.

The Duke looks at me as he tries to draw intentions from my eyes. He then pointed his long eyelashes down and gave him a slightly spicy look.

"... this marriage has proceeded forcefully at this convenience"

"Yes?"

"Don't even know how you feel until the ceremony —— to hurt you as a result..."

"Wow, wow, wait a minute!

Bad. I just pulled out an apology. That's not what I wanted to hear!

This guy stinks. Whether the basic personality is negative or the conversation flows right in the direction of the bully.

Even before, I just talked a little bit about "You don't seem to like me ~" or "You don't want to be by the man you don't like ~".

Serenia's character review of "I'm a troublesome person" was very targeted.

I know the cause of the bullying is because you heard of my marital impossibility call. In the first place, your rude remarks are the starting point for that nuptial call.... There seemed to be some confusion in that statement, but there was no reason for me to know that. Even though I had thoughts, it was still terrible.

But I have another loop to apologize for on the matter. I'm not going to steam back what I've done to you.

"I, I didn't come here to blame the Duke for anything. It's just that we, we're not having a decent conversation about getting married, and we don't know each other very well, do we? So that's what I want to hear about why the Duke chose me as his wedding partner and what he thinks of me!

So, I ended up asking straight questions.

I have no choice. With the flow like this, we can talk about the isolation again.

Looks like he finally understood my intentions, and the Duke obviously upset me.

Shaking his soft silver hair, he swallows one breath. And hesitantly, thin lips opened.

"... you and I met six years ago"

"At a swordsmanship tournament in Wangdu,"

"Do you remember"

"No, I don't remember the Duke at all"

The Duke's face becomes much brighter and soon thereafter soothes.

Oh, I'm sorry. Let's not have extra hands together.

"I can't help not remembering. I just had a little talk with you. [M] But ever since, I've never forgotten about you."

……

"I was in love with you."

……

In spite of being exposed to a chasing dialogue for the second time, I was unnecessarily silent.

The Duke himself seemed to have taken a little damage, and he distorted his righteous face to bitterness.

"... sorry. If it was meant to be, this kind of thing should be said before the ceremony."

I really do. It was a very sudden marriage, and I may not have had the time to say it, but if you'd let me know how you felt before the ceremony, I wouldn't have been so intransigent.

"But I mean it. Katrea, I like you."

"... ku"

I get hit with a stubborn word.

No more. Let's temporarily retreat.

When I turned myself in thinking so, the door blocked by the couch caught my eye.

Oh, I did. We're in a cage castle operation now. Earlier, I locked myself in this room with my own hands.

The exit route has already been turned down.

Failing to escape, I turned again to the Duke. I tried to disguise myself as the wind of nothing, but this one's attempted escape seems to have been well discovered, and the Duke shook his head sadly.

Ahhh.

"... I still don't like being a couple with me"

"I don't hate it!

Reflectively, that's what I scream.

The Duke looked up all the time and looked at me. From the gap in my silver hair, my blue eyes were shaking reflecting me.

I don't hate it, what did I say? No, I mean it.

I don't even have an organization of my feelings, but how do I proceed with the story?

"Eh. To be honest, I wasn't in love with the Duke, and even though he told me that I had liked him for six years, then I just think you should say it sooner."

"Well, I guess so."

"And then all of a sudden I'm embarrassed to be confessed,"

"I'm also reflecting on that..."

"Ki, I'm so happy with your feelings. I don't even know why they like it, so it doesn't stick... What's so good about me?"

I'll ask you the biggest mystery of this loop.

I don't care what dream-eating looks like anymore, but I just need to be clear about this.

The Duke closed his eyes and then, just thinking about it, wrinkled a little bit between his brows.

This guy gets these faces when he's embarrassed or lit up. I'm getting it.

Waiting for a response in a broad and calm mood, the Duke eventually said, pompous.

"To put it into words, it's hard... Well, I guess."

"... well"

Wow. Out, fine. I didn't expect to come here.

That's not a word to use when there's nothing to praise.

The Duke goes on with a serious face, though he gets slackened by accident.

"You're always bright, and with that brightness and momentum, you blow everything on the spot like a storm. I thought it would be preferable."

……

I wonder what I did six years ago, although it is analogous to a disaster.

In the first place, the word you use to blow up everything on the spot against the child you like? They'll say it's like a fierce warrior.

... well no. Apparently, the Duke is really complimenting me. I've been shot out of my mind by your beauty, or something, and I'm just gonna think, "Don't lie to me."

Until before the loop, I thought I was a hell of a bad guy about the Duke. I didn't think I could marry someone like this.

But this guy really likes me. Sometimes you didn't look out for danger and sheltered me.

I still don't know if I like this guy in a romantic way. It was not primarily Mr. Risel and the dreameater's fault for his free time in love.

My chest has been pounding since just now, but I have a sense that this strange exhilaration is also about 70% in front of the beauty of the Duke.

I've always liked a handsome prince type since I was a little girl.

But.

If this is the last time, I want to spend the time I have left with my husband who says he likes me, not with assassins who are willing to kill me.

About the end of the day, I want to go through something called the wife of a nice prince.

Because it's my first night of marriage.

"Wow, I get it. I will be your wife."

"... Cattleya"

"No, are you already your daughter-in-law? I gave the ceremony, and I made all sorts of vows at the church. So...... nice to meet you"

I haven't listened to the Bishop, and I don't know what I swore.

When I offered my right hand with that in mind, the right hand of the round large duke was slowly stacked. The hand that once protected me.

"Thank you, Cattleya"

The overlapping palms can be gripped.

"Perhaps I have let you down a lot. It must not happen, such as hurting the bride on the day of her marriage...

Still, if you'll walk with me. I promise I will take care of you for the rest of my life, as I swore to God then "

That being said, the Duke, for the first time, laughed fluently. I should have looked steep the whole time, but his smile was so sweet and lovely.

Hey, sometimes. Is this the one that feels like a bride? But the situation is just the situation, and I can't really pin it.

As I swore to God, I didn't ask him what he swore.

...... even though it feels good because of the atmosphere, the unfortunate wedding reminds me of it and I get a little mocked.

The swearing kiss was also just chewed up with an unpleasant face. That hurt.

I think the wedding mood was ruined because of that nasty vow kiss. Until then, I could have painstakingly maintained the moment with the beauty of the Duke.

At that time, wouldn't I have soaked up in a more romantic mood by now if you had taken more care of me? A little bit, if you show me with your attitude--

"Duke, I have one favor to ask you."

"Please?"

"Would you give me a kiss?"

The duke's face, which was understated, hardens with pissilli.

Why do you harden up there?

"Um, don't you like it? Kiss me."

"Ha!? Oh, no. Not that I don't like it."

The Duke exposed the sort of upset he had shown one day and let his gaze crawl to his feet for a moment.

"I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect you to say that."

"At the ceremony, you would have chewed the swear kiss. That hurt me pretty bad. So do it right here. Otherwise, I don't get the feeling I'm kind of your daughter-in-law."

"Does kissing make you feel real"

"I don't know until they do."

"Or so," the Duke coughed and nodded. He admitted it.

"So, then. Do me a favor, too."

"Yes, what is it?"

"... that. Will you meditate on my eyes?"

"Huh."

I don't know why you bother asking me to do that. Whether you open the lid or close it, it's the same thing to do.

Well, it's not a big favor, so I'll meditate my eyes, come on, and be ready to accept.

Then I felt a limp hand on my cheek.

... Ah. This is not good. I'm suddenly thrilled.

On the battlefield, my father taught me that I was going to die from people I had found out about. I'm so nervous about meditating on my eyes while I know something's coming.

At the same time as the tension my whole body got a lot hotter and my heart started rumbling.

Could I have asked you to do something extraordinary with momentum? Because it's the last loop. So your feelings are getting bolder? But I want to let you achieve your goals in life......

My legs tremble so puffy that they have now escaped. But I couldn't afford to run.

Now, it wasn't a cheek.
