The Male Leads Were Stolen by the Extra - Chapter 2

If someone asked her whether she loved Ian Cherville, the answer would be, “No.”

 

He was the male lead in the original story, but since unlike the original female lead, the possessed Sellonia didn’t love him.

 

There were many times when she was nearly killed by just forced adventures, and living in the dangerous wilds made it natural for her to develop feelings for him.

 

But it was human affection and camaraderie, not feelings for the opposite sex.

 

Because Ian Cherville had an aspect that anyone couldn’t help but like.

 

[That’s okay. I hope you’re less tired.]

 

[Because rather than the Lady, it would be better for me to be sick.]

 

Even in an environment where they couldn’t eat proper food, he was always a gentleman.

 

Not one of her beans was shared, and all of his beans were yielded to her.

 

Who wouldn’t have a crush on a guy with such a friendly attitude and lines?

 

It wasn’t just that.

 

Ian had the qualities of a hero as a male lead, and he instilled trust in Sellonia by showing her a strong, unbreakable figure.

 

That’s why she said she didn’t have any complaints about her ending to marry him, even though she didn’t love him.

 

After all, she personally experienced all the big events that happened in the same way as in the original story.

 

Even if it was avoided in the first place, it was inevitable.

 

So, of course, she thought it would be good to end the story by saying that the Demon King had died after their hard work, then she had a hundred years of marriage with him as in the original story while eating and living well.

 

She had no idea that she would collapse all of a sudden for months and the male lead would cheat on her.

 

As if that’s not enough, even the sub-male leads…

 

“I’m sorry, Miss Sellonia.”

 

At Reyev’s heartfelt apology, Sellonia seized the mental string she had let go.

 

‘Is this a surprise camera now?’

 

Or is it a dream? If not that, it’s a terrible nightmare…

 

“I believe that Miss Sellonia will understand me.”

 

However, Sellonia was forced to face the reality at Reyev’s continued remarks.

 

The sub-male lead, the Holy Knight Reyev Hetzel, had a lady whom he wanted to swear on for eternity, and it wasn’t her.

 

He said the girl’s name was Grace Bennett.

 

She was the mistress of Ian Cherville, who, not long ago, was her fiancé.

 

“Reyev, Grace Bennett… will soon be the fiancée of Ian Cherville.”

 

She didn’t want to talk about those two’s relationship with her own mouth, yet she couldn’t do that to Reyev.

 

As he was the person who always gave her unrequited affection by her side.

 

He is about to go down the thorny road again, so she has no choice but to stop him as a friend.

 

“I know.”

 

“That… Y-Yes? You know it already?”

 

But at her unexpected reply, Sellonia’s mouth widened.

 

He knows it? If so…

 

“But I can’t stop my feelings for Miss Grace. Just looking at her from behind is fine. I just want to protect Miss Grace.”

 

“…”

 

Sellonia’s mouth was all closed by those words, which she had heard many times.

 

That’s right.

 

This confession was exactly the same as the confession that Reyev had made to her, without making a single mistake.

 

His heartbreaking confession to her, who ate the wrong poison and had a high fever.

 

Whoa… Is he taking it this way?

 

“I’m so sorry, Miss Sellonia.”

 

Reyev, who was shyly confessing with blushing on his face, kept his expression, as if he thought it was a mistake.

 

Sellonia had a throbbing pain in her head. She wasn’t hurt.

 

It’s just ridiculous and upsetting

.

There’s no way she can’t argue about changing one’s heart.

 

The heart is a very personal realm and it belongs only to him, so whoever he loves was his choice.

 

However, Reyev was a sub-male lead and her first friend since she possessed Sellonia.

 

He is a precious person with whom she cried and laughed together for six months.

 

There was only one reason why he deliberately came to her and confessed his change of heart.

 

The declaration that their relationship ends here.

 

She probably won’t be able to see him for personal reasons after this time.

 

“No, Reyev. It’s your heart, so there’s nothing to be sorry about.”

 

Why the hell is it Grace? Is this simply a coincidence?

 

Sellonia couldn’t ask Reyev, despite the curiosity that reached the end of her neck.

 

If she did, she was afraid that she would get the same answer as the reason why he liked her. Because it seemed like it would hurt a bit.

 

“I’m sorry.”

 

“Thank you for all this time. The heart that Reyev gave for me and all the times we spent together.”

 

Concealing her disappointment, she reached out her hand to Reyev first. For the first time, she was sincere.

 

She couldn’t respond to his heart, who had always given her wide and deep affection like the sea.

 

Because she had a fiancé, Ian.

 

She has never properly expressed her gratitude to Reyev, since she was afraid that it would be a false hope for him if she had given him a little bit of her good will.

 

Sorry about that all along.

 

So, she can show this level of sincerity, right?

 

Today will be the last day she can face him.

 

Reyev is a highly knowledgeable and upright man, and from now on, he won’t even glance at anyone other than Grace.

 

Even if it were herself.

 

“…”

 

Reyev’s eyes shook wildly.

 

For the first time, she reached out her hand. After all, today will be the last day for each other.

 

Reyev was moved, but with a determined attitude, he took Sellonia’s hand.

 

She’s afraid her weakly trembling fingertips will be detected.

 

“…Take care.”

 

“Yes. You too, Reyev.”

 

The handshake that was exchanging warmth with each other continued for quite some time.

 

Sellonia looked down at his hand, which she reached out to first, before letting go of Reyev’s hand.

 

“Then I’ll be going.”

 

Reyev bent down, clasping her cool hands, which had lost their warmth.

 

As usual until the end, he turned away with a steady greeting without any distractions.

 

A constant sound of footsteps left the drawing room.

 

Sellonia looked around the drawing room where the silence fell, and then sat down on the sofa.

 

“M-Miss…”

 

Watching her eyes, the servant, Ella, approached cautiously.

 

“Ella, what the hell happened while I was down…”

 

She murmured like a sigh.

 

She had ever wondered what would happen to her after that if she married Ian.

 

Return to the original world? Or will she be able to continue living as Sellonia?

 

In that thought, her wish was decided.

 

She just wanted to live as Sellonia.

 

Before the possession, she lived a lonely life without her parents and friends, and died of an illness at an early age.

 

She has no body to return to in the first place.

 

She didn’t have any memories of her past that Sellonia originally had, but she thought that she would forget about the male lead, who had an affair, then eat and live well.

 

She doesn’t have any memory of Sellonia’s past, but she’s read the original story, and she’s also a duke’s daughter, thus she has enough money to spend her whole life doing well.

 

However, unlike the original story, Ian hasn’t changed, and even Reyev likes Lady Grace, not her.

 

‘No, why are they doing this all of a sudden?’

 

Is something wrong?

 

Or did they really simply change their minds…?

 

“…Are you alright?”

 

Ella looked at Selonia’s eyes, who seemed to have lost her soul. Like a person who was very nervous for fear that she would make a sharp shout or hysteria by any chance.

 

“Selli!”

 

That was then.

 

A loud voice echoed through the hall of the mansion along with the loud sound of footsteps.

 

There was only one person who would make such a fuss, so Sellonia turned her head towards her door, her eyes wide open.

 

Why, at this moment… No way…?

 

She got goosebumps in an unusual situation.

 

“Selli! Are you here?”

 

Gulp.

 

The man who came in with the door smashing open saw Sellonia sitting on a sofa and approached her at once.

 

The man’s name is McLion.

 

He is a blood relative of the last dragon and, like Reyev, a sub-male lead in the original story.

 

“Give back the heart I gave you before.”

 

McLion proudly stretched out his hand towards Selonia without greeting her.

 

At one time, he gave her the heart of a dragon as a gift because it was his, yet now he was asking her to return it.

 

“…”

 

For Selonia, this reality itself was more creepy than McLion’s brazen attitude.

 

Because she seemed to know to whom the heart of the dragon he asked to return would go.

 

And soon her thoughts came true.

 

“I have someone I want to give to other than you.”

 

“…Grace Bennett.”

 

“Yeah, right…! Huh? How did you know?”

 

Selonia uttered the name first, and McLion’s eyes widened in amazement.

 

“Ha, hahaha.”

 

At the same name that came out of the mouths of the three male leads, Sellonia eventually laughed like a madman.

 

Those men fell in love with another woman.

 

Also, she was an extra that didn’t appear even a single line in the original story.
