I Will Disappear, Grand Duke | LK Adaptation

"No, I don't want to."

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Lalisa suffered from nightmares all night long.

Looking at her cold sweaty forehead and trembling lips, 50,000 thoughts went through his mind that night.

At first, he had a strong desire to revive the monsters that had already been brutally killed and chopped them off painfully again.

Next, he agonized over how to explain the current situation to Lalisa, who was so traumatized.

He thought that some of her memories have been lost due to the severe shock. In this case, if he forcefully injected memories, she might go crazy.

'Then what should I do?'

'It would be better to wait until the memory is automatically recalled. Until then, it's best not to touch her memory as much as possible.'

Jungkook, who remembered the doctor's words, tapped the table anxiously.

In the meantime, he couldn't fathom Lalisa's fear.

It must have been a great shock because she had never seen such a monster in her life, and she almost got kidnapped.

It was not at all unreasonable to lose memory.

"....D*mn it."

He murmured lowly.

According to the knight who went out to the Monastery, the place had already become a wasteland.

The Paladins of the temple rushed out, but the wartime situation with the monsters would continue for a very long time. Naturally, Lalisa couldn't go back there anymore.

No, after all that happened, Jungkook could no longer let her go.

Most of those who remained in the monastery died. His lieutenant rescued only a woman and a dozen children.

So it might be better to just let her misunderstand the situation like this. That the man, who had been looking for her like crazy, caught her and forced her to this place.

That way, it would be better than recalling the painful memories that came upon her. Jungkook lowered his subdued gaze.

Meanwhile, the sky, which had been dark, gradually began to shine with the dawn of the morning. Lalisa, who opened her eyes only late in the morning, had a more organized face.

Sitting alone in her empty bedroom, she gathered her thoughts for a while.

Vaguely, she remembered what happened yesterday.

So, she was now at Jungkook's villa in the Grand Duchy. She didn't remember how she got here.

Raising her body, she approached the window with the curtains and opened the door. The cold winter wind blew hard on her face.

An unfamiliar landscape could be seen through the window. A wide open plain and a lake.

Her mind was all confused, but one thing was clear.

'All this time...he's been looking for me.'

Lalisa bit the inside of her tender mouth. She couldn't even fathom how Jungkook had found her. But if she stayed like this, she would be dragged back to his castle.

When she had finished her thoughts, Lalisa turned and walked towards the door.

When she opened the door, the hallway was empty.

Thinking that she had no chance but now, Lalisa rushed to her steps.

She went down the stairs and when she reached her landing, she encountered Jungkook, who was going up the stairs. As she looked at him with her eyes wide open, Lalisa immediately revealed her hardened face.
