When My Enemies Began to Regret - Chapter 110 - 34. Get Off (4)

“…!”

It was unbelievable. The content of this week’s novel that appeared before her eyes was shocking. Aloken in the novel stabbed Vasago, the protagonist of this world. T-this, wh-what is this about…

Fanora no longer saw the ring he handed her. Now, there was only one thing that was catching her eye. It was the next page of the usual ‘Dangerous Love.’

“Is it that surprising that I propose?”

“…”

“Fanora?”

Aloken looked up at her and asked, as her fiancé’s appearance became strange. But the right answer did not return.

“Just a little bit.”

Fanora soon opened her mouth in a trembling voice. Her eyes were shaking uneasily.

“Give me a little time!”

“Wait…!”

Eventually, the fiancée who received the marriage proposal ran out, leaving an unknown word.

“Fanora?!”

As the other party ran away without looking back, it was like a thunderbolt from the point of view of the proposer.

* * *

Fanora ran through the letters that filled her vision, barely looking in front of her. Unaware that her legs were bleeding because of the new heels, she continued to run away.

“Kyaa!”

“I’m sorry!”

She didn’t stop when she bumped into the noble. Eventually, following her memories, she arrived at the corner of the royal castle’s garden. It was the same place she always looked for when she wanted to run away from the banquet hall.

“Gasp, gasp…” She breathed heavily from running.

There was no one around. Only now did she begin to read what appeared today properly.

Fanora became contemplative when she saw this chapter. “There is something wrong with this. She’s the center of the world!”

She thought she had misread the letters, but the contents didn’t change even when she looked at them again. Vasago Guelder died.

In addition, Aloken’s dialogue that followed was even more spectacular.

Subsequent paragraphs describe in detail what Aloken has done to Vasago so far.

This was the end of the novel that appeared today. After reading all the contents, Fanora slumped down. With her trembling hands, she erased all the words in the air. Now, only darkness remained before her eyes. She couldn’t figure out what to do.

“…”

Fanora, who fled the banquet hall, eventually returned home.

“My Lady, your fiancé is here.”

Duke Jalier was worried about her sudden disappearance, so he came to her mansion as soon as the sun rose the next morning.

“I’m so sick that I can’t meet him today.”

Confused, she sent him away on the pretext of being ill. But Aloken couldn’t see his fiancée the next day or even the day after that.

* * *

Before she knew it, it had been a week since Fanora locked herself in her room.

“She’s sick again today?”

“Yes, Duke. She told me to never accept guests because she’s in a shabby state.”

“How many days has it been since she said that?”

Aloken stood at the front gate of Celsius Mansion and gazed intently at the second floor. His gaze was directed to the place where his fiancée’s room was.

“Fanora!” Soon after, he made a loud voice that surprised people around him. However, no one was seen by the window, even when he shouted so hard that his throat went red. Aloken soon put on a serious look.

“Perhaps during New Year’s Eve… did she catch a bad cold from standing on the terrace?”

“Yes. She has a fever.”

“Then why did she reject the doctor I sent to her?”

“…”

“I will send her medicines that are good for her body soon. In the meantime, if something goes wrong with my fiancée, you know I won’t let it go quietly.”

He used to be a man who would ignore the servant’s words and come into the mansion.

[I hate anyone who has no manners. Please abide by the rules of the nobles’ society from now on.]

But Aloken remembered the promise he made with Fanora. Since he had made this promise, he couldn’t enter the mansion without the owner’s permission. In the end, Aloken gave up today and went back.

“…”

After a long time, Fanora got up from her seat and looked out of the window.

“Aloken…”

Her current state was beyond words.

A week had passed since New Year’s Eve and the novel that unfolded before her was astonishing. As if killing Vasago in the novel wasn’t enough…

Following the contents of New Year’s Eve, Aloken, who obtained the holy relic, immediately harmed Duke Guelder and plotted rebellion by taking advantage of the fall of Marquis Andras, the greatest power of the royal family, due to the war. Of course, the noble families, who had been holding their breath until now, joined the rebellion. In the novel, he gives up his position as the head of a noble faction to marry Vasago, but this is also a trick to deceive the king.

“…”

In the end, Kingdom Kasius in ‘Dangerous Love’ was engulfed in fire.

The results of the rebellion could be confirmed in just one chapter. It was a great victory for the noble faction.

This can’t be. There’s no way this is the end! No, wasn’t this a romance novel? What romance novel has this ending!

Unable to acknowledge the novel’s contents, Fanora endured from New Year’s Eve to today, saying, “The situation will change when the next chapter comes out.” However, she could even see the word ‘Completed.’ Still, she couldn’t believe in reality. She thought this couldn’t have been the end of this novel. That’s why Fanora decided to wait one more week.

“…”

But when midnight came the next week after such a long wait, all her expectations were dashed.

“Certainly, it’s twelve o’clock.”

It was two weeks after New Year’s Eve. Dressed in slip, she immediately opened the door and went out to look at the grandfather clock in the hallway. Daeng, daeng, daeng… It’s already been a few seconds since the sound of midnight began.

“Nothing…”

This has never happened before. The midnight novel, which had always occurred at the same time since she regressed until now, was no longer visible. Indeed, it was the end of the novel.

“W-why is nothing happening…?”

It was really embarrassing. Throughout the novel, she never imagined that the end of ‘Dangerous Love’ would end like this. How could the extensive descriptions and development between Vasago and the male protagonist be just a one-sided scheme by Aloken…

“Aah, Aaah…”

Fanora had already gone through countless processes to ensure that the content of ‘Dangerous Love’ matched reality. Therefore, she had no choice but to disbelieve the novel now.

“…”

Fanora grabbed the grandfather clock and collapsed.

When he went out to the battlefield, and Vasago waited for him, her sad feelings were described, and even for a moment, I sympathized with her. Since the title of the novel was ‘Dangerous Love,’ at first, she thought it was just bluffing, but no one told her that it was really this dangerous.

“Vasago is actually destined to be killed by the duke…?” She murmured in a low voice. “So all that was directed at her was fake love…?”

However, unlike Fanora’s successive denials of reality, everything was now clear. In the novel, Vasago meets death as the price of falling for Duke Jalier. And at the same time, Fanora realized a certain fact.

“…”

In this reality, who is being courted by the duke? It was she who stole the place where Vasago was supposed to be. That meant there was a high probability that Fanora would also replace the protagonist’s fate.

“No, it can’t be.”

Fanora rose from her seat, denying to herself, and walked down the empty hallway back to her room. The scenery of dawn, where only one candle lit up her surroundings, was calm.

“Vasago and I are completely different people.”

She opened the window and cooled her head. Then she had a slightly different idea. “I’m not the daughter of Guelder, whom he hates.”

The future could be changed drastically with small actions. Vasago was killed for political reasons, but… Fanora’s relationship with him was different from the start until the development. No, it had to be like that. He must be sincere to me.

She didn’t want to think that the actions of Aloken she had seen and experienced were fake.
