I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast

As soon as he arrived, he disappeared without a trace.

Seraphina quietly stood up and brushed off the skirt of her dress.

She had an arrogant and cold expression, unlike the subservient position she was doing just now. 

Seraphina walked over to the wall and touched the frame of a painting. Then a hidden secret space appeared.

Inside were two more small bottles, identical to the ones she’d just given Sonatek.

“I may never get the blood of an Oder again.”

God told her to bring it, but not to give it all.

“Maybe God knows I have them.”

     Doesn’t such an almighty God really know that I have other ulterior motives?

After draining three vials of Lev’s blood, Seraphina intentionally gave only one bottle to Sonatek.

“Oder’s blood…….”

Seraphina’s eyes gleamed dimly.

Behind the small house was a cozy garden that blocked the outside view with a high fence.

Eleon and Elysia sat side by side on the chairs that were there.

Eleon had a bitter thought. It was because Elysia lifted a chair away from him and sat down.

It’s been a while since the distance between them disappeared.

Before, they approached without hesitation and naturally touched each other’s bodies without asking for permission.

Even now, when he saw Elysia, he wanted to hug her. 

He remembered the warmth of her body and wanted to bury his nose in her fragrant scent and whimper along with it.

     I’m having a bit of a rough time right now. Why don’t you want to stay by my side?

She was like a little butterfly that flew when caught and flew again when chased.

He has suffered through days like this, but it was the first time he felt so anxious.

As if something was about to explode, Eleon was restless the whole time after rescuing Lev and returning to the mansion.

“What do you want to talk about?”

Elysia spoke first. However, the one who is disappointed becomes the weak one.

Curious about what he had to say, she had to bring it up first.

“When I was at Laurel Lake today…”

Elysia began to speak slowly.

“Old memories came back to me as clearly as yesterday..”

Contrary to Eleon’s restless heart, her words slowly burned his insides.

“I clearly remember being dragged onto the deck covered in bruises as if I had been hit all over the place. Your mother, Princess Lev, gave me a dagger.”

Elysia looked at her right hand.

“Also when I stabbed the crown prince with my own hand.”

Elysia’s helpless eyes turned to him. Eyes that held no affection for Eleon.

Heartless eyes that feel nothing for him.

     Don’t look at me with those eyes.

Eleon wanted to shout, but it hadn’t been long since he had seen her face-to-face like this that he was grateful for even that.

“But I couldn’t remember anything about the time I spent with you.”

You may remember it in the next few days.”

Elysia shook her head.

“It’s been a few days already.”

“If you go to my place, you might remember it.”

“I don’t have amnesia. I had to run away endlessly to live. But in the end, the prophecy caught up with me, and, in despair, my consciousness temporarily escaped.”

The dazzling brilliance and deep-set eyes of a twenty-year-old woman that was not suitable for her age stared directly at Eleon.

“The woman you remember doesn’t exist.”

“Stop, stop.”

Eleon denied it. 

Elysia’s eyes widened slightly as he reached out and grasped her shoulders.

“Here you are. You are here. Why……..”

Eleon’s face distorted. Elysia responded, looking at his expression.

“Don’t you know why?”

“No, I don’t…… I don’t know, I don’t care if you don’t remember it. I can remember it for both of us.”

Elysia just asked why he doesn’t do it now.

Eleon realized that the personality of the woman he loved had vanished without a trace.

But he couldn’t let go of Elysia.

He thinks she will never return to him if he admits it.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t remember you.”

What came back to him were the apologetic words of a priestess.

“Why are you apologizing!?”

Eleon could not bear it and screamed.

“What are you saying…… It sounds like you’re never going to see me again…”

Eleon’s eyes turned red.

     Is there not a single feeling for me in those big purple eyes?

How is it that at first there was so much love, but now there is nothing left and coldness?

Elysia’s callous gaze broke Eleon’s heart once more.

“I can’t force myself to be that person.”

“Your memories will come back. I’m sure you will remember me.”

Eleon said urgently.

“If you spend time in my residence, your memories will gradually return. You haven’t been in the grand duchy since that incident happened.”

“I will return to Hadunsha.”

“……What? What do you mean by going back to Hadunsha?””

“I only go to the place where I need to stay.”

“You promised to stay by my side. Elysia, please just try it.”

Eleon looked at the motionless Elysia as if he had realized something.

“Shall we kiss?”
