When the Nemesis Eats the Wicked Woman - Chapter 79

“Next.”

The people around me looked at me with stunned expressions.

Even Patricia, who had been through a bride who made her groom change clothes 47 times.

She looked more surprised than anyone else.

“Your Majesty…?”

But with a determined expression on my face, I waved my hand, gesturing, ‘Next!’

‘If Rixus shows up like that at the wedding, won’t my heart race and I’ll be unable to concentrate?’

I didn’t want to look clumsy at the wedding, where the crown princess had to show her dignity to the fullest.

It was difficult to allow myself to let go of my mind like a bride in love.

I couldn’t even fall in love with my wonderful husband.

“I’ll come back after changing.”

Rather, Rixus said nothing and disappeared.

Then, Seryl shuffled her feet as if she was sorry for Rixus.

“In Seryl’s eyes, that outfit was perfect!”

“Even in my eyes, it was much nicer than the cute archangel in the number one spot.”

“…Because it made him look so noble, like a mythical god?”

I spoke, trying to calm them down.

“…There must be more appropriate ones.”

I was literally talking about an ‘appropriate’ attire. The next time Rixus came out, I would pick the first one.

It was moderately cool, it did not cloud my rational judgment, and my heart did not suffer.

Anyway, the first one was perfect.

It was when I made up my mind like that.

Patricia came over and whispered discreetly.

“Your Majesty, can I see you over there for a second?”

‘…What is it that you want to tell me, with your eyes twinkling like this…?’

It was a voice full of secrecy and intimacy, as if she wanted to privately give me some hidden delicious thing.

I followed Patricia without much expectation.

Passing through a hallway decorated like a fabulous Virgin Road, a very small, shiny room appeared.

Literally, it was a very ‘shiny’ room.

The lighting was gorgeous and there were quite a few jewels hanging on the wall.

‘Are these all for the groom?’

Besides, there was something peculiar about the room, which was full of boxes.

‘Even the boxes are shiny. What’s in that box?’

It was a box adorned with jewels and tied with a cute ribbon. Kind of like a magic box that made you look forward to what was inside.

In addition, I wondered what the purpose of this dazzling room was. Why did she bring me here?

I was puzzled, but Patricia hit a home run and stepped to third base at once, answering my three questions in one shot.

“Choose the groom’s underwear, Your Majesty.”

“……”

As she said so, she picked up a pretty box that twinkled.

‘……Choose what?! Am I hearing it wrong?!’

I thought I had auditory hallucinations for a moment. Was I feeling weak these days?

Patricia whispered to me, who had hardened in disbelief.

“The underwear designs in this box have been proven by many brides.”

“….…”

“Like I said earlier, there are also underwear imbued with magical powers that enhance stamina, to the point the bed can be shattered without getting tired all night long…”

“……Stop!”

I hastily cut off her wild and bare description.

Then I waved my hand with a very warm face.

I slowly replied.

“It’s okay.”

I declined, but Patricia responded with a laugh.

“Your Majesty, there is nothing to be shy about.”

“…….”

“In this room, you can buy a lot of underwear for couples. It’s for the first night.”

……A couple? ……With Rixus?

‘Isn’t that too much of a joke?! I’m flustered even when our faces get closer to each other, but what do you mean by wearing them as a couple?’

‘No, who usually does that on the first night?’

I spoke with a straight face.

“How, on the first night, like that…?”

“Because you already shared your first time on the first night of the engagement’…”

“…….”

“Hence, shouldn’t the first wedding night be a little more special?”

Ah. I finally understood why she made such an outrageous offer to me.

The people of Aktoum already had sexual intercourse during their first night of engagement, and it was said that the first wedding night was considered an ‘intense version’.

I guess she thought Rixus and I would be the same.

“Perhaps…….”

However, seeing the hesitant expression on my face, she seemed to have noticed too.

Soon, there was an epiphany in her eyes.

“Oh my goodness!”

“…….”

“Indeed, it seems that the rumors that have been floating around are true…? The groom says that he cherishes the cherry of the declotier very much.”

…My crazy husband’s insane explanations seemed to have gone viral in the neighborhood. This was giving me a headache.

Patricia seemed to be very impressed, and she smiled happily until her cheekbones popped, and then she held out a box to me.

“Then it would be better for me to give this to you as a gift.”

“?!”

I waved my hand like a sea otter being forced to eat a strange-looking starfish.

“Okay.”

“Think of it as my special sincerity, Your Majesty.”

“……”

The word ‘sincerity’ was enchanted, rejecting it would make me feel like a rude person.

Thus, I eventually accepted the box.

“…Thank you…”

Patricia politely greeted me and left the room.

‘Will the maids make fun of me?’

They wouldn’t dare to tease me, but they wouldn’t be able to hide their expressions of ‘Oh my God!’

I went out with such concerns, but surprisingly, they didn’t seem to know what it was.

“Ah, Your Majesty, what’s in that pretty box?”

I held onto the box tightly and answered coldly.

“The head of Medusa.”

“?!”

“When you meet Medusa’s eyes, you’ll turn into stone.”

The chicks flinched.

“That’s why, you should never open and see the insides.”

“…Yes, Your Majesty…”

‘Sorry, chicks. I don’t want you guys to find out what happened.’

It was when I was rubbing my red cheeks with the back of my hand.

Patricia brought a very pleasant snack.

“Please eat ice cream while you wait.”

In Aktoum, when the weather got warm like this, cold desserts become very precious.

So, this ‘fresh cream ice cream’ was the most luxurious dessert she could serve.

Mmm, it tasted really good too. It was made with fresh cream, so it felt like it melted as soon as my tongue touched it.

When I had tasted a couple of bites, Patricia’s assistant came out and spoke in a troubled tone.

“Well, His Highness the Crown Prince… he’s not replying.”

“!”

The people who were eating the ice cream all looked up at once.

“I knocked on the changing room several times, but there was no answer.”

Patricia asked,

“Isn’t there an assistant inside?”

“He said that he would like to change clothes by himself… he said he didn’t need any help.”

It was a habit that he had for a long time. A habit from not having people by his side and handling everything by himself.

It must have been like that since the incident where the servant who brought him his clothes tried to attack him.

Was it when he was seven or nine-years-old?

“I’ll go check.”

I got up. It was a changing room, but it would be a bit strange to ask the other maids to go in.

‘I’m worried. What happened inside?’

I went to the changing room and knocked twice.

“Rixus?”

Only then did I notice the ice cream cone in my hands.

I was worried, and forgot to put it down before I went.

‘There’s really no sound.’

“I’m coming in.”

I spoke carefully and pushed the door, entering.

And I knew as soon as I walked in. The reason why Rixus didn’t answer.

“….…”

He was asleep, leaning against the wall of the dressing room.

With a pretty exhausted look.

It was then that I remembered what Laura had told me.

“Lieutenant Ires said that the Crown Prince hasn’t been sleeping well lately.”

“Why?”

“Because he’s quickly making preparations for the wedding.”

I felt heartbroken and apologetic.

In the meantime, he prepared for today’s trip, and changed clothes as I asked him to…

He must be tired today.

‘To be honest, I didn’t know it would be this much.’

I approached Rixus, squatted in front of him, and looked at him.

“Your eyelashes are so long…”

From a distance close enough to feel his breathing, I observed him.

Each and every eyelash caught my eye.

His nose was this pretty. His lips were plump even when he slept.

I had been busy avoiding his gaze because of the pounding of my heart whenever he brought his face close.

As he was asleep, I began to have the courage to observe him up close.

‘It’s the first time. It’s easy to see it up close.’

The scent of Rixus, my favorite, came close enough to make my heart flutter.

It was nice to hear his calm, regular breathing.

‘I thought there weren’t many expressions left that I hadn’t seen in the past…’

But I hadn’t seen him sleep before.

‘His sleeping face looks like a baby.’

A smile crept across my face.

Without realizing it, I lifted a finger and lightly touched his long eyelashes.

Then I murmured.

“Pretty…”

But that was then. He silently opened his eyes and looked at me.

The thin, barely opened eyes revealed his blue-purple pupils, right in front of my nose.

He had such a normal face that it was hard to believe he was asleep.

Before I could get up from my squatting position, he grabbed my waist with his large palms and placed me on his thighs in an instant.

“!”

It was close enough for our hearts to touch.

His calm, long breath, which I thought was pleasant to listen to, touched my skin and sensitively scattered.

Rixus looked closely at me, and then…

His voice was locked up, and he whispered in a low tone that was more languid than usual.

My heart pulsed.

“You are prettier.”

It was hot and melted with his chest.

“You’re so pretty, Candy…”
