I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast - Chapter 29

“Let’s go.”

With Eleon’s skillful escort, she found herself standing on the edge of the dance floor.

     What’s missing?

Usually, when a man requests a dance, the woman can nod or accept it.

Then, they greet each other and move onto the dance floor.

Eleon skipped a lot of etiquette rules.

“Here.”

Eleon waved his arm to the side, put it across his chest, and bowed slightly.

“Wow.”

It was so cool that Elysia uttered an exclamation.

“What’s wrong?”

Eleon asked when she didn’t hold his outstretched hand.

“It’s very ……”

“If you’re going to compliment me, I hope you do it clearly.”

“I was going to say it was so cool, but I better not say it.”

The Grand Duke extended his hand again.

Elysia took his hand.

Ba-dum ba-dum

Her heart raced. It was her first dance.

     I can’t believe I’m dancing with Eleon for the first time.

If I’m happy to be able to dance with him for the first time, does it mean a lot?

Just a little while ago, she was nervous about Sabiel, but it didn’t matter when she held Eleon’s hand. 

“Shall we go?”

“Ummm.”

Elysia hesitated for a moment about whether to say it or not.

“This is my first time I dance.”

Groan

Maybe I shouldn’t say it.

Usually, after saying something like this, she thought she might step on his feet, then kick herself in the shin, and trip over the skirt of the dress.

Have I watched too many foreign movies?

However, it’s her first time.

Elysia hesitated and looked up at Eleon.

He smiled brightly.

“It’s an honor.”

Ugh! It’s so dazzling.

Even if she couldn’t see it, she thought that it would be because of the male lead buff if he smiled like this.

Eleon’s smile was so bright it could burn her bangs.

But, why do you like it so much? Eleon, I could step on your foot thirty times. Did you know?

When Elysia grew impatient, the dance began.

     Dance.. both. 

The other people who filled the dance floor like a flower garden suddenly ceased to exist.

His arms wrapped around her body. She felt a sense of stability as she placed a hand on his firm shoulder.

It felt strange when their slightly clasped hands were of different sizes.

     Were Eleon’s hands that big?

She knew his hands were big when he touched her face, but Elysia’s hand on his was almost like the foot of a chick.

When she worked for him, there were many occasions when she would hold his hand when he needed her help.

She didn’t know it then, but she couldn’t understand why his hand felt so big now.

Eleon, who naturally leads the dance, was skillful.

Whenever Elysia slipped, he slowed down his steps and quickly regained the tempo.

She was dancing while holding the hand of such a man, to the point of thinking that she was dancing quite well.

“Ahh.”

When the first song ended, Elysia was out of breath.

“It’s over.”

It was time to change partners.

Too bad.

She really enjoyed dancing with Eleon. She had never done anything with him, who always looked after him like a baby, like a puppy.

Elysia tried to withdraw from his arms.

“Not yet.”

Her eyes widened.

“It’s not enough.”

Eleon led her back to the dance floor.

Elysia looked around her in bewilderment.

“Oh my god. Look over there.”

“It’s the first time I’ve seen the Grand Duke in a white uniform.”

“Don’t they look like a bride and a groom? Ho ho ho.”

Some elderly ladies and men were gossiping.

Others were busy peeping at them, whispering, covering their mouths with their fans.

     Groom and bride?

She wore a white dress for the debutante, but she did not know Eleon had such clothes.

Eleon appeared wearing clothes she had never seen before when she was working for the Grand Duchy, and he looked like a groom who was about to get married.

“Uh, Your Highness. This..this against the rules. Dancing with the same person in a row.”

“I have been breaking the etiquette since I started dancing.”

“Others are looking.”

“You don’t like it then?”

Elysia lifted her head and looked at him.

Red eyes and purple eyes met.

“If you don’t like it, we can stop dancing right now.”

“I don’t hate it.”

Elysia hesitated to answer, and Eleon began to lead her again.

She was always with Eleon during the time she lived as ‘Rona‘.

The Grand Duchy was her home, and Eleon was the only one who needed her in this unfamiliar world.

She became his hands, his eyes, and his feet.

Rona, who was a part of Eleon, is now gone.

As Rona, whatever she did, she had to think and act upon. She had to learn a lot to get used to it.

And after I became Elysia?

She had to learn what kind of person ‘Elysia‘ was, and she had to match her thoughts and actions.

So, she was not content with that sense of stability.

She felt better and more at ease when she was by Eleon’s side.

Did I make the wrong decision?

At that time, neither Hadunsha nor the Duke of Yuter could let ‘Elysia‘ go.

That’s normal.

Even if you don’t remember, and you find your missing family, it’s common sense to try to go back.

If she said she couldn’t remember anything and said she would continue working as a maid, would her parents let her go?

But she remembered because she became Elysia.

Elysia played an insignificant role in the original novel.

“What are you thinking about?”

Eleon, who was watching her carefully, reacts like this again whether it was before or now.

Elysia answered with a short sigh.

“I was thinking of what to say.”

“Hmm.”

“I remember now. There’s no way I’d hate it. If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have been able to finish my first dance with Your Highness.”

“Ha ha ha.”

When Eleon laughed out loud, some of those who were dancing staggered.

And the whispering grew louder.

“Can I ask you something?”

“Ask me whatever you want.”

Elysia asked, holding his hand again.

“Can you see well now?”

Eleon’s eyebrows went up.

“I don’t mean anything else. I heard that you have been sick for a long time. Then I thought you might be uncomfortable.”

“Not at all.”

Eleon answered kindly.

“I’m fine, but my butler is more annoying. He called all of the doctors in the capital saying that if I saw the light it would hurt my eyes more. Thanks to him, I’ve been locked up in my bedroom for three days.”

“Pfft. Ha ha ha.”

If it was Bernard, he was capable enough.

“Why are you laughing?”

“It’s funny that Your Highness listened to the butler. It seems like you are the kind of person who will do whatever you set your mind to. Like when you danced with me twice.”

Besides, Eleon took her to the dance floor before the Empress could finish speaking.

She was very uncomfortable upon learning that the Empress’s true intentions were to bring her and Sabiel together.

“Hmm. That can’t be said.”

“Yes?”

“I didn’t listen to the butler.”

Elysia’s body rotated to the other side.

“I was threatened.”

“Yes? You were threatened?”

Bernard, who became his butler because he admired him, threatened him.

It was impossible.

“There is a woman I am looking for.”

Thud

For a moment, Elysia stopped.

But Eleon skillfully put his arms around her waist and pulled her into his arms, as if embracing her, lifted her, and moved her to the other side.

Elysia hurriedly started dancing again.

“If I don’t do as the butler says, when I find her, he will tell her that I left the house without being diagnosed. If she knew, she would be mad and worried that I went around as soon as I opened my eyes.”

Elysia felt the inside of her throat itch.

I thought everyone would forget me soon.

The butler still remembered Rona. Besides, Eleon is looking for her too.

I thought we’d just get along.

Do I still mean that much to him? Am I so important to him that he’s afraid I’ll get mad because he didn’t take care of his eyes?

She felt a warmth inside her for not being able to be honest with him.

The heat, which seemed to be subtle as if a lump of charcoal was on fire, was pressing down on one spot, making her heart beat faster and faster.

Before she knew it, the second song was over.

Eleon held out his hand again.

“Since it’s like this, why don’t we create more trouble?”

“I like to live quietly.”

“Well. My Lady doesn’t seem to know who she is. If you liked to live quietly, shouldn’t you have kicked your shin out in the middle of the second dance?”

A large hand awaited Elysia.

If I take this hand now.

She had a feeling that she could never go back.

Still………

At the same time, she heard a voice calling out to her.

“Elysia.”

It was Mariela with a puzzled face.

“Lady Elysia!”

When suddenly, Crown Prince Sabiel urgently approached, trying to ask her for a dance.

The next moment, Elysia grabbed Eleon’s hand again and headed to the dance floor.

“That’s unexpected.”

“Isn’t that what you wanted?”

They stood side by side, arm in arm, and joined the group dance.

“I hoped for it, but I didn’t know you were this bold. I thought you would be shy because you had been a priest for a long time.”

“How did you know that?”

“If you don’t know about Priest Elysia, you’re a barbarian.”

“It’s a name that has already been excommunicated.”

Is Eleon interested in Elysia?

It occurred to her.

Karina deviated from the fate set in the original novel. She should have heal Eleon’s eyes, and her role as Karina, who she should have fallen in love with him, was partly transferred to Rona.

But Rona, who healed his eyes, is irrelevant. She simply disappeared from the story.

She wondered if Eleon would live in a world without romance.

“By the way, why are you talking about another woman?”

Her voice trembled a bit, perhaps because of her selfishness.

“Am I talking about another woman?”

“You said you were looking for a woman.”

Elysia suddenly thought that she was jealous of herself as Rona.

It made no sense to her, but it was a feeling that could only be explained like this.

“Did you find that woman?”

“Only half.”

Half? If you are looking for her, you find her or not. What does half mean?

He found Rona?

Elysia asked again puzzled.

“What kind of person is Your Highness looking for?”

Eleon smiled softly.

“Someone who will marry me.”
