"Bellena?"
"He's looking for you, Aaron."
Bellena who still did not expect if the Miller he was looking for was a person he knew, did not immediately say the core of his arrival. But Aaron who knew the girl certainly knew where the unexpected event came from. If it wasn't for her non-command, it wouldn't have been possible for an ordinary girl like Bellena to come there.
"El say something?" Ask starts.
Hearing what the man said, Bellena remembered why she had been sent to find Miller.
A message given by nonanya. A more precise message is referred to as a task. However, the first task that the man could, made him a little hesitant.
The plan is pretty simple. He just needs to find Ashley 3 men to pretend to attack Kalia. Ashley doesn't care if they want to really hurt Kalia or just scare her. As long as Kalia's not dead Ashley's satisfied enough.
At the time of the incident, there came the hero who would save the girl. Whatever Kalia hates Ashelia and whatever attitude the girl shows, she will still remember Ashley as her savior.
Ashley had avoided this plan, but seeing Kalia's response made her change her mind. He could only hope that Aaron would never betray him and sell his name when their actions were tracked.
The recana is running tomorrow. Although not sure, but Ashley suspects Kalia ban only lasted 3 days, considering his 2nd brother must have been trying to persuade Asteron.
As for exactly what time it was, Ashley just said 'night'. Since Kalia was killed at night without any escort and without anyone realizing it, it was obvious the girl must have been used to sneaking out at night.
Then considering the villain-prone routes that the girl might have crossed, Ashley sent her impromptu men at the most potential point. The places and information about the holder of each region he got from the child he met yesterday. Incidentally, the most likely route is the region of Aaron.
However, it was not his plan that made Aaron doubtful, but rather their target.
He had no problem with strangers, or any other official, not even a Duke. But the family of Derius was different. Although a very new family and lasted almost 3 generations, Asteron is still the 2nd prince of Durman kingdom.
As much as possible he did not want to deal with the royal family. And again, 3 lives of his men are at stake here. He was worried that selling Ashelia's name alone would not be enough to save them.
For a person who was clearly harmed like Aaron would certainly think about it over and over again. Without knowing Ashley's urgent situation, he must have thought that the heartless woman only liked to play around with someone's life.
"Your dragon is really a hobby of making things difficult for others." Said Aaron while thinking about what decision he should take.
Hearing a speech that was very relevant to what she was feeling, Bellena opened her mouth about to say something.
She was the first victim of Ashley. He is also the one who is most often complicated by the woman. If there was an award for the victims of Ashley's actions, Bellena would have won all categories.
"Miss is in trouble too."
But the thing that came out of his mouth was just the opposite.
Sincere defense of the only person who knew of Ashley's circumstances.
"Wrapped to a foreign place and forced to solve other people's problems without knowing anything, I understand if he doesn't like me and often makes it difficult for me."
"He was very scary, and after knowing what his previous life was like, he looked even scarier."
Ashelia who returned from Ashley's world had told Bellena everything. Hearing of a civilization that he never imagined he would be very amazed, and above all Ashley is a person who holds the power there, along with hundreds of men he imagined like a horde of demons.
"But that scary guy really amazed me." Continue while showing a slight gentle smile.
Compared to before, the state of the Midgraff family residence was much more organized. The workers there now really work like professionals because of Ashley's influence. Marion was also scared.
At the bar, at the casino, anywhere, if Ashley is at a disadvantage, she remains calm while looking for the right moment to turn things around. It left a great sense of amazement within the girl.
"Sometimes he looks wise, sometimes he also looks kind, although 99% still seem scary."
Bellena recalled Ashley's words inside the carriage when she first came to that world. He also recalled the time when Ashley defended him when Aaron frightened Bellena. From that day on, Ashley always went alone at night.
But not as usual, this time Ashley's attitude is different. The thing that should have made Bellena's worries less was actually leaving a strange impression.
"I felt strange when I saw that he didn't look as evil as usual."
The shadow of Ashley's serious face when she invited Kalia to make peace, continued to be imagined in her mind.
"There's a reason why people weren't created knowing when they died. Because if it was me, I wouldn't be as calm as him."
Hearing this, Aaron was surprised. Although it did not look like that but he really did not expect. Doesn't that mean that the current El he knew indiscriminately was facing the cause of his death? Is he seriously ill?
No. gabe. The woman had only slightly gotten a leak of her destiny. Or rather the destiny of the owner of the body he wears.
The gentle smile on Bellena's lips that turned bitter was now not visible anymore. He paused for a moment to make his feelings begin to feel heavy.
"Seeing he didn't retaliate at all when someone hurt him that badly, he must have been very restrained."
"Although I was his personal servant, and spent most of the day with him, there was always something I did not know. It's like something happens to him every minute, every second."
Silent. It's been so quiet since Bellena started to vote on Ashley's condition. He also raised his head which he had bowed as if looking for memories scattered on the floor.
Realizing that when he saw everyone in the room staring at him, he gasped. The girl stammered not knowing what to say. He fears he has made a mistake defending Ashley in front of one of the women's victims.
While looking at his right hand that no longer belonged to him, Aaron smiled.
"Well, we just need to make it without eyewitnesses." He decided to do the assignment Ashley gave him.
"For the person who once risked his 400 gold for me, I should have trusted him, right?" The next one that immediately made Bellena almost scream 'don't'.
The girl quickly nodded many times even though she felt she should have said no. The girl had successfully carried out her mission, why would she have to ruin it herself?
He went back down another path pointed out by Aaron. A wide smile adorned his face. He is satisfied with the manipulations he has made to make Aaron's doubts disappear.
The opportunist girl always knew what to say.
Then somewhere else, the commotion again occurred even though it had only been two days.
"Can't you stop looking for attention?" Say one of the women to her stepdaughter who just returned with a bandage around her neck.
