The Obsessive Maniac Is Trying To Confine Me - Chapter 146

“I’m here, lady.”

Terry guided me safely to the dog hole.

It was easy to bribe Terry, who was taking care of her sick mother, with money.

I deceived Argen with my helpless acting and disguised myself with the wig and maid outfit that Terry secretly brought on that day.

Even the artifact earrings were removed, and my face changed, and no one knew ‘Camila’.

Thankfully, Argen put only people around me who didn’t know ‘Rosie’ face who worked in this mansion 3 years ago.

Taking advantage of the commotion, I pretended to be a maid and ran away.

“Thank you, Terry.”

After I got out of the dog hole, I thanks Terry.

“That lady…”

Strangely enough, Terry, who had done the most work, looked uneasy..

“What’s the matter? What’s wrong?”

“That…”

“Well, at least you got out of there safely, thank goodness.”

Then I heard a familiar voice behind me.

“… Richard?”

As if answering my call, the man grinned.

Even in this situation, his appearance shone.

“Good job, Terry. You can get the reward by following the person over there.”

Behind Richard stood a man wearing a robe.

This couldn’t be…

“You weren’t bribed by me, you were bribed by that man?”

“I’m sorry, lady. I was his spy before you… Do you know what I mean?”

I was stunned.

The maid who twisted at best was a double spy.

“Well then, I’ll go…!”

Terry ran away with the man in the robe. So it was only me and Richard left in this place.

“… What is this situation now?”

“What is the situation? I’m here to save you.”

“Save me…?”

“Marquis did something bad to you .”

Did you come to rescue me after learning that I was imprisoned by Argen through the spy planted in this mansion?

“More than that, Rosie, don’t you need this?”

Richard smirked and handed me a bracelet.
“What’s that?”
“You know what it is, when you wear that bracelet, it turns you into someone else.”

He naturally lifted my wrist up and put on the bracelet.

Then the pink hair turned brown.

He patted my wrist and smiled at me saying it suited me.

“I see you’re coming to my side now.”

I’m not sure if this situation is good or bad right now.

But…

“Aren’t you supposed to be here right now? Today’s holiday event is being organized by you…!”

“Yeah, but would that event be more important than you?”

“It doesn’t matter!”

“…….”

What on earth did the temple believe in giving such a person the position of the Paladin Commander?

Someone who can’t be bothered to mind his own business.

I’m glad they did.

“Take me to the event.”

As it is an event that even the royal family participates in, the celebration of holidays is strictly scrutinized.

I was worried about how to get in because I didn’t have an invitation, but if Richard looks after me, things will be easier.

“It’s not difficult, but you ran away and want to go there?”

He looked like he didn’t understand it.

“… Would you believe me if I said I wanted to enjoy the event with you?”

Suddenly, Richard made a serious face.

It doesn’t work either…?

At that moment, Richard said with beautiful smile.

“Let’s go.”

Such an easy human.

*****

If not for this, the inside of the temple building was gorgeous enough to please the eyes.

Stained glass emitting several streams of light, delicate and elegant statues that look like angels. Various items such as silver candlesticks and holy grails.

I don’t even recognize it now.
Thanks to Richard, I was able to enter the shrine without any formalities.

“Commander!”

“Why are you here now! I was worried about you!”

When we went to the temple, the priests who were on the verge of crying approached us.

How embarrassed would you have been that the Paladin Commander who was in charge of the event had escaped?

Richard smiled shamelessly and apologized to them.

The priests looked at Richard with moved eyes.

‘You look like you’re not sorry at all.’

They must have been impressed, not by his apology, but by the way his face lit up.

“Come on, Commander! It is very urgent now!”

“You’re right! Everyone is looking for the Commander!”

Richard glanced at me.

It felt strange. This guy can’t be saying he’s not going because of me, can he?

“What are you doing not going?”

“…….”

You really don’t want to go?

‘Are you aware of being the Paladin Commander?’

Of course not, which is why he’s doing this.

As if to urge, I stepped on Richard’s foot. Very firmly.

“… You can go, I’ll be on my way.”

Yes, you should go.

“Wait, Rosie.”

As Richard did not move, the priests who had less understanding of the situation looked at this with puzzled eyes.

Richard stares at me intently, then leaves with the priests.

I took refuge in a quiet place with peace of mind.

It was because I did not want to be in the middle of a crowd of nobles.

“Oh my god. Isn’t that young master Herthas?”

Then someone muttered.

I looked back in surprise.

‘Dylan?’

His hair shined like straw in the sunlight, and his eyes were ruby-red.

“As the rumors say, he’s really handsome.”

“The young master of Herthas were all good-looking, but it wasn’t a rumor. No, on the contrary, rumors tend to be inflated, but not this time.”

“The second young master is also quite handsome, right? I want to see him.”

“Lady, didn’t you hear the news? The second is…”

Missing.

Yurtha disappeared in the North.

‘Where is he?’

He’ll be fine, I know. Whatever. It’s not my business.

I hope he never shows up in front of me again.

“But where is young master Herthas looking now?”

I woke up from my thoughts when I heard the voices of the nobles.

As they said, I looked at Dylan, and he was looking this way.

That was not the end. Dylan approached this way with a ferocious expression on his face.

What, why he come!

‘Did you recognize me again?’

Don’t come! When you come, eyes are drawn to me! I want to stay quiet and disappear!

Perhaps he recognized my desperate wish, Dylan leaves with only an unpleasant expression on his face.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

“Ugh! Isn’t that Marquis Evantes over there?”

I hold my breath again.

“I know that Marquis doesn’t usually show up in places like this…”

Argen looked around as if looking for something.

Suddenly I realized that he was looking for me. He must have noticed that I was coming here.

‘Let’s run away!’

Reflexively, I checked my wrist to see if the artifact bracelet was fine.

Would he even recognize me?

I hurriedly hid into the crowd. I can rest a little bit now.

Am I too mixed up in the crowd?

There are so many people passing by that they keep bumping my shoulders.

“Ah!”

As I tried to break through the crowd, I bumped into someone and leaned back.

Then someone grabbed my wrist.

“…..!”

The hand dragged me out of the crowd.

“Who are you…”

He was wearing a robe, so his face could not be seen.

A man was tall and looking down at me.

‘… Robe in a place like this?’

When I saw the suspicious figure, I was quietly startled, and then saw the pattern embroidered on the robe and was relieved a little.

Only priests wore clothes with this pattern on them.

‘Then why did you cover your face?
At that moment of doubt, his red eyes fluttered under the deep robe.

For a brief moment, the fabric swayed slightly, revealing black eyelashes, red eyes embedded below, and a sharp nose.

It’s all familiar to me.

“… Are you Yurtha?”

At that moment, a loud shout rang out.

Richard came up on the second floor podium.

Soon the shouts turned into holy tunes.

As the young priests lined up sang a clear and beautiful melody, a beautiful voice resounded.

The holiday celebrations has begun.

*****

 

It has been over a month since Yurtha went missing.

Meanwhile, Dylan was looking for Yurtha.

Not out of brotherly loyalty or any such pretense.

They were related by blood, but they had never been brothers.

It was simply out of necessity.

‘What the hell is this?’

I haven’t seen him for over a month, so why are you suddenly appearing at a holiday event?

Isn’t that also Yurtha Herthas, not as a companion of the Ascent family?

‘What are you up to, Yurtha.’

Dylan searched for Yurtha, who must have been hiding somewhere in the temple.

In the end, Dylan finally found it.

A mysterious man wearing a black robe engraved with a temple pattern.

Dylan knew right away just by looking at it.

After all the years they’d been together, that robe shouldn’t hide a familiar physique or an unmistakable aura.

… But is that guy holding Rose right now?

When I first found Rose here, what I feared suddenly happened.

“Rose…!”

He shouted at Rose, but his voice was drowned out by the loud singing.

Damn it. Dylan spit out cursing, shoving people out of his way as he hurried toward him.

Then there was a bang, a murderous, limb-crushing sound, and a gust of wind.

Thick smoke quickly obscured her vision.

A scream rang out before he realized what had happened.

Dylan momentarily turned his head toward Rose’s direction.

‘Rose!’
