She Was Sent by God - Chapter 121

“But will they accept such a proposal in a wartime situation if we asked?”

 

“Haha, Madam. Humans tend to make ridiculous choices when they are cornered.”

 

Agnes unconsciously agreed with Andrassy’s confident smile.

 

“Although I’m a merchant, I know that the most important thing in a war is food supply. Devorsen had a poor crop last year and a flat crop this year, so they don’t have enough food.”

 

“Even if they try to get food supplies, it’s going to cost a lot of money because the wheat prices are going through the roof because of the war.

 

The longer the war, the shorter the Marquis’ patience will be. People tend to make the wrong choice if they are short-lived.”

 

He narrowed his eyes and tapped the table with his fingers.

 

Coincidentally, the shaking caused the petals in the vase to fall to the floor.

 

Sebastian is by nature suspicious and less merciful.

 

The only official that Agnes knows he believes in is the Count of Barania.

 

If Devorsen is cornered and asks for a loan of gold, he is likely to refuse.

 

“When can you start?”

 

“I’ve already drawn a sketch, so if you give me a month, I’ll be ready.”

 

“All right. The most important thing is to not be caught. It must be done in secret.”

 

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

 

Andrassy soon left the office.

 

Agnes sat at her desk and began to write a letter to Chavolti.

 

{I heard that the plague started to spread in the capital, so don’t get sick and die while stuck in the townhouse, and don’t hesitate to go to Sutmar…….}

 

Agnes wrote this far and realized that her tone was not very friendly, so she took out a new piece of paper.

 

{Dear Brother.}

 

She barely wrote a line and got goosebumps on her arms, so she took out a paper again.

 

{Chavolti, I heard that there was a great plague going around the capital.

 

If you’re still stinky, you’ll get sick and die without luck. Won’t Sophia become a widow overnight

 

Sutmar is safe from the plague, so stay here for a while. I can give you a room for the Marquis to stay. }

 

This time the content was quite satisfactory. She paused as she tried to fold the letter and put it in an envelope.

 

She unfolded the paper again and wrote something at the bottom of the paper.

 

{With love and concern(.)}

 

It was written in small letters. She thought it was enough.

 

After sealing the envelope, she handed the letter to her servant.

 

“Madam, the wizard asked if you could come.”

 

“Hmm? I guess she’s feeling better”

 

“Yes, she really wants to see you.”

 

“Yes, I will. I have to visit her.”

 

Agnes put on a thick coat and walked directly to the tower where Reika stayed.

 

At the entrance, she found Theo moving busily with a lot of things.

 

“Duchess.”

 

“I’m on my way to visit the Great Wizard. Please guide me.”

 

“Oh, I was on my way to see Reika-sama, too.”

 

“Really? How’s her condition?”

 

“Well……. you’ll see for yourself.”

 

Theo smiled awkwardly and mixed his words.

 

No matter how many times she visited the tower of wizards, it was hard to find the way.

 

Obviously, all she took was a few steps, but she arrived at a huge door before she knew it.

 

Theo opened the door without hesitation. Agnes stepped into the room and was surprised.

 

“Oh, duchess. You’re here?”

 

“What the….”

 

Reika’s room was packed with people.

 

On closer inspection, it was not just people.

 

All kinds of gifts are layered and the ceiling is illuminated by the light of different colors.

 

In addition, a string quartet was playing l around the corner, so her ears were burning.

 

Agnes pushed aside a large crowd and approached the bedside where Reika was lying.

 

“What’s all this about?”

 

“Oh, I was bored just lying down, so I called someone. Would you like some wine?”

 

It was not a bit; it was almost as crowded as a party.

 

Agnes tried to smile sweetly instead of pointing it out.

 

“How are you feeling?”

 

“What did you say?”

 

“How are you feeling?”

 

Agnes spoke more loudly.

 

“Well, it’s not bad. It’s been a while since I’ve been hurt like this. Don’t put a vase there!”

 

“Did the wound heal?”

 

“….. It does hurt a little.”

 

“What did you say?”

 

The sound of the performance and the voices of the people were distracting.

 

“My back! It’s a little sore!”

 

“Shall I call the doctor?”

 

“That’s enough!”

 

Reika shouted primly. She glanced around and spoke to the crowd at once.

 

“Excuse me. I’m a little tired. Please leave for a bit.”

 

Then the people who filled the room like a lie rushed out.

 

“You said you wanted to see me; did you call me because you had something special to say?”

 

“It wasn’t a beast, was it?”

 

“Hmm?”

 

Reika asked suddenly without explanation.

 

“The memory of that day is unnatural. And the cut surface is too clean to say that my back is scratched. It doesn’t make sense that I’ve been beaten by a mere beast.”

 

“……how much do you remember?”

 

“The fact that a powerful and eccentric being, unlike a beast, invaded the castle.”

 

“Well.”

 

Agnes hesitated for a moment, but he decided to be honest because it was not a good idea to keep hiding it anyway.

 

“Believe it or not, it was the servant of God who hurt you that day.”

“Isn’t the servant of God already extinct? And why did they come here?”

 

“Well, actually, I signed a contract with a dragon.”

 

“What?”

 

Reika raised her back.

 

She began to explain the complicated and difficult story as simply as possible.

 

Reika’s eyes gradually shone as she listened to Agnes.

 

“…So, Eugene said that since the sixth seal has been unlocked, they won’t be targeting me anymore.”

 

“Then there’s only one last seal left.”

 

Reika murmured, sweeping down her hair, which had become a little crumbly.

 

“Well, yes.”

 

“What happens when all the dragon seals are released?”

 

“I don’t know. Will Eugene be free?”

 

She never thought about it that much, so she tilted my head.

 

“Who else knows this?”

 

“You’re the first one.”

 

“Oh, really? Am I the first one? Did you just tell me?”

 

Reika’s nasal voice rose sharply. She raised her chin and glanced at Agnes.

 

Now Agnes, who knew the meaning of the gaze roughly, spoke as if teasing her.

 

“Do you know how much I trust you archmage? I would have been in big trouble if it weren’t for you that day. Thank you very much.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

“I can’t even imagine Estar without the archmage now.”

 

“Well, if you hold me so earnestly, I’ll see the Duchess’ face and I’ll stay for a few more years.”

 

“Thank you very much.”

 

“And do you have anything else to say?”

 

After nearly an hour of flattery and praise, Agnes managed to leave Reika’s room.

 

“You can go now.”

 

“……. Take a good rest.”

 

When she left the tower and went back to the castle, the sun was setting.

 

Talking to Reika alone for a long time took a lot of energy.

 

She was tired physically and mentally, so she wanted to rest well in the bedroom as soon as possible.

 

She was trying to go up the stairs to her room, but Niall suddenly popped out of nowhere.

 

“Madam! Where are you going?”

 

“Where am I going? In my room.”

 

“I have something to tell you. Is it okay?”

 

“I’m a little tired. Is it urgent?”

 

“Yes, yes, it’s very urgent.”

 

Agnes followed him to the quiet hallway, as Niall was rarely the one to say this.

 

“What’s the matter, really?”

 

“Well…… Actually, well. So, I asked Miss Adrienne to marry her But I haven’t received an answer yet.”

 

“……. Didn’t Adrienne already say yes?”

 

“No, I gave her a handkerchief, but I didn’t get an answer.”

 

“Yes, I see. But is this such an urgent matter?”

 

“My life depends on it.”

 

“…….”

 

Agnes was a little annoyed for a moment, but he couldn’t ignore it because he said that his life was at stake.

 

“Don’t rush her. I’m sure Adrienne needs time to think about it when she suddenly got a proposal.”

 

“Really?”

 

“Didn’t you ask her to marry you and let her go because you wanted her to come back alive from the chaos in the first place?”

 

“That’s right.”

 

“First of all, Adrian needs to come back safely so that the wedding can be held.”

 

“Ah, yes. That, that’s right.” Niall said, clapping his hands exaggeratedly. His appearance was terribly awkward and strange.

 

“Then I’m so tired that I’m going to take a rest If something urgent comes up, come and see me then.”

 

“Oh, Madam, wait a minute.”

 

“What else?”

 

“Oh, well. What color would Adrienne like?”

 

“…….. “

 

Agnes turned around and strode out of the hallway.

 

Niall desperately called her from behind but turned a blind eye.

 

After a few steps, this time Ney quickly stopped her.

 

“Madam, I have something to say.”

 

“Say it.”

 

“Not here, but there. Can we go to the dining room and talk about it there?”

 

By this point, it seems that the servants were hiding something.

 

Agnes squinted and stared at Ney.

 

“Hurry up and say it.”

 

“Oh, I mean, not here, but in the dining room…….”

 

“What the hell are you hiding?”

 

“What do you mean, hiding? How could I? To the lady who is like the sky!”

 

Ney shook her head with all the fuss. Agnes passed Ney and went up to the bedroom.

 

“Now, wait, wait a minute. Madam.”

 

“Did you have an accident without me knowing?”

 

“It’s not like that.”

 

“But why are you blocking my way? Oh, get out of my way.”

 

“Madam,”

 

Ney blocked the bedroom door and didn’t easily step aside.

 

“Can you move?”

 

“I can’t get out of the way.”

 

“What?”

 

They argued at the door for a long time. Agnes was frustrated and curious about the situation.

 

“What’s going on?”
