I was sick and tired of acting like Tiarozetti.

A character that can only endure even while facing such an unfair thing.

I bit my lower lip, recalling the face of the maid who guided me to Kronos.

Among the kind servants, she was rather careless.

She may have been plotting something next to me, but since I only focused on Lexion, I let it slide.

‘I’m not going to leave you alone if I go back. I can’t stand the unfairness anymore.’

I went through a lot while thinking I would be able to return to my original world.

After all, I had hope that I could go back.

But now I wasn’t sure.

I didn’t know if it was right to go home, or even if I wanted to go back.

‘If the book doesn’t show up, wouldn’t it be fine to do whatever I want?’

I was planning to get revenge properly when I returned.

Suddenly, a sound was heard.

My body trembled, wondering if it was someone who came to torture me again.

All my thoughts would be in vain if I couldn’t get out of this place.

If dying like this was my role in this life, then I’ll be going back for sure.

After a bit of time, light poured down with a strange sound, like scraping of an old iron door.

I scrunched my face instinctively.

I felt blinded by the sudden light I saw.

My eyes were too much used to the darkness.

“Ha, that damn bastard.”

Someone looked at me and cursed.

I guess I was so messed up that seeing me right now was kinda sad.

Somehow, it hurt so badly.

As I got used to the light, blonde hair stood out at a glance.

In fact, from the moment I heard that voice, I knew it was Gregory.

“Pri— Prince Gre— Gregory…?”

He frowned, even more, when he heard my cracked voice.

He beckoned to the knights behind me, and the knights loosened the shackles from my feet.

My ankles tingled with a sense of freedom.

I wanted to get up, but I couldn’t.

I frowned.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t stand up.”

Eventually, I was carried on a stretcher. I worked my eyes and looked around.

Unfortunately, Lexion wasn’t around.

As if it was written on my face, Gregory came up to me and said,

“He’s not in the capital right now. It’s been a week since he disappeared to find your whereabouts.”

“What do you…”

“Why is that useless…!”

Gregory tried to shout with an angry face but caught his breath.

He seemed to think that it wasn’t me he should be mad at.

I stared blankly at him and muttered in a low voice.

“…I’m sorry.”

“No. Why would you apologize? It’s that blue worm’s fault.”
