[Episode 18]
Today was a ‘New Moon Night’ when the moon disappeared. And on the night of the new moon, Etam’s blood slept.
The ‘New Moon’ was the day when no one in Etam could go berserk, and fall into a stable, non-sensitive, deep sleep.
A day of rest prepared by dragons for humans who have gained power beyond their control.
This day was the day when the power of those who inherited the blood of Etam, regardless of direct or collateral, was weakest, and it was also the day when Etam’s security was strengthened the most.
All of Etam’s immediate descendants do not come out of their rooms on this day.
It was more accurate to say that he was only sleeping.
Of course…
‘I’m fine.’
Sleep didn’t come as much as a snot. I’ve heard that the collateral is a bit sluggish, but…
‘I’m even more energetic.’
The drowsiness is unprecedented.
It was only clear that not one drop of Etham’s blood was mixed.
“Myla, what day is it today? I don’t know.”
“Today is Prince Erno’s birthday.”
“…yes.”
It’s Erno Etam’s birthday?
Must be on the night of the new moon?
Was there such a setting in the novel? I tilted my head with a puzzled look.
“There will be a birthday party next week. Have you prepared any presents?”
“no?”
Was there an event like this?
I frowned involuntarily. There was no talk of a birthday at all.
“Lady Ei is the only daughter of Prince Erno. I have to give you a gift first.”
“yes. It’s a good thing…”
It’s the night of the new moon?
What present can you give me on a day when everyone is asleep?
“Can I tell you a good way?”
“How far?”
Somehow I felt strange.
I tried to suppress my delicate heart and asked again. Mayla, as always, had a kind expression on her face.
‘But who was the real culprit?’
Apparently he wasn’t that great.
“Because there are earrings that Prince Erno always wears.”
It was obviously not a very important role.
“Did you know that it is actually marble-shaped? If you collect all of them, Prince Erno won’t change terribly.”
An extra who was just in debt and needed money…
“I know where the rest of the shards are.”
Also, it was a device to get closer to the heroine and Erno Etam, who were in the middle of a relationship by deceiving the extras who were similarly insignificant.
“If the lady brings it, she will surely love her a little more.”
…I guess that was me.
Suddenly, I remembered Mayla, who had disappeared behind the annex like someone being chased.
‘Why didn’t I know?’
I touched my forehead.
‘I remembered the decisive reason why I was kicked out.’
According to the original novel, it was revealed that I was a lizard, so I had to be tested for blood kinship.
It takes at least a month or more for the results of blood family tests to come out.
And in the novel, this was the time when I was staying in this mansion for a grace period.
And, most certainly, it was clear that he was kicked out because of this.
‘Why did it only come to mind now?’
It was strange.
How can a novel that I have read for years be so unable to remember certain scenes?
And as if to erase that doubt, a scene from the novel came to mind clearly.
[“Think about it, lady. If you can enter Prince Erno’s family register, you won’t be kicked out of your house.”
“…but.”
“If you give me a gift like this, I’m sure you’ll adopt the girl instead of the newcomer.”
“…Then can I stay with you?”
“Of course, lady.”]
I touched my forehead in the feeling of losing my mind.
‘Mayla was the culprit.’
I calmed my beating heart.
After thinking for a while, I shook my head. Actually, there wasn’t much to worry about. I was thinking about what to say.
“Sirer, this distant young man.”
I snorted and replied. Then Mayla’s eyes widened in surprise.
No matter how good the original was, it wasn’t to the point where I wanted to risk my life.
“My lady, I have been so good to you… Did anything I said mean anything bad to you?”
“I’m doing well, too. And I can’t tell the difference between a small and a small one.”
“Then I might accidentally tell you that the young lady is a prisoner.”
I was a little surprised by that statement.
How does Mayla know I’m a prisoner? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of it.
“Did you think I wouldn’t know after taking care of her for so long?”
Mayla’s expression when she said that was full of disgust.
It wasn’t the expression of a maid who had been sensitive until yesterday. I took a deep breath.
“But it is strange. Originally, the humanization should have been released at the New Year’s meeting. I heard that it is a pretty effective medicine for sinners in the Southern Continent.”
Mayla spoke in a friendly voice as always. The white smile on his face was the same as I remembered.
‘…Could that be?’
The back of my head tingled a little.
‘What do I know?’
Being kicked out was predestined anyway, and whether or not it was revealed was none of my business.
I turned around.
“You will regret it.”
“Do your best, munchong.”
“I’m looking forward to tomorrow morning.”
“Um, you’ll pay in two weeks D anyway.”
I responded like a child and went back to my room.
In reality, Mayla… No, the extra that appeared in the original story was killed by the villain in the novel.
In a word, it was a tosagupaeng.
‘…Mayla will eventually steal the earrings.’
It was a story that would go on like the original. Because that’s how the heroine can stand out by using her abilities against Erno Etam.
So at least it won’t be my fault.
However, it seemed necessary to prepare to leave soon.
‘I don’t even have a female lead today.’
The heroine is also born with Etam’s blood, so she will fall into a long sleep today.
‘Let’s pack something.’
I let out a deep sigh and looked down at the tiger doll clutched at my side.
“Ehhhh.”
Life doesn’t always go your way.
‘I have to take the tiger with me.’
Still, it’s a gift I received.
Of course, it was only this doll that I had to pack.
And the next day, Mayla ended up paying four months.
* * *
“Is he really…?”
“Oh my God… Myla looked after him like a babysitter.”
“You repay the favor with the enemy!”
“You dare to be filthy in the Etam family…”
Erno Etam did not come today. Of course, there was no Miles.
I couldn’t starve, so I had no choice but to walk to the restaurant, but I heard a strange voice in my ear.
‘Looks like something happened again.’
Of course, at best, it was only really revealing that he was a prisoner.
Gossip or gossip is familiar. Compared to what I’ve been through at school, there’s no malice here.
“miss.”
I thought the shadow stretched over my head, but someone blocked my way.
“who is this?”
“My name is Kylo, the butler of Etamga.”
The horse was the head of the butler, and he was Mirel Etam’s right-hand man.
‘The fact that he came…’
means that this incident went into the ears of Duke Miriel.
“Go.”
“…you seem to know what’s going on.”
“He’s deaf.”
“…okay.”
As I walked forward, Kylo quickly followed and took the lead. He came out on his long legs and matched his stride.
“You can go in.”
He said as he opened the door to the conference room.
Duke Mirel was not alone inside.
There were important figures including Erno Etam, the heroine who stood by him, and the vassals and collaterals of the Etam family.
And I saw Myla standing on one side of the conference room.
Seeing him holding a damp handkerchief and dyeing his eyes red made me sick to my stomach.
‘Even though I gave all kinds of information.’
Even if I didn’t help, somehow Mylar would have survived anyway.
‘Because extra villains persevere until they are needed.’
The reason for Me and Mayla’s existence in [Input.Yang.Gak] is the role of connecting Erno Etam and the heroine.
In reality, the heroine seemed to be holding Erno Etam’s hand and suppressing his berserk.
‘He doesn’t know that he will eventually die if he runs out of usefulness as an idiot or an extra.’
I took a slow deep breath.
“Hello.”
No one answered my greetings either.
‘are you okay.’
because it’s familiar
There was no one who accepted my greetings throughout my school days.
No, actually, it’s not just school days. So was the family.
“You answer my questions honestly from now on.”
“yes.”
I answered obediently, anticipating the end to Duke Miriel’s threat.
“Is it true that you colluded with the person in black to steal this guy’s earrings?”
“….”
“Do you know what kind of earring it is?”
Wow, you’re putting this on me?
I was speechless at the absurdity, and when I looked up, I saw Mayla crying in sorrow.
“What about the fact that you are a prisoner?”
“…”
When I couldn’t open my mouth, Duke Mirel slammed the table with his fist.
Fortunately, the table didn’t split in half this time.
“Answer me honestly! If it’s not, it’s not, if it’s right, it’s right!”
“Su-in is the devil…”
Su-in is right, but he tried to answer that he didn’t steal the earrings, but as if he had waited, his body began to heat up.
‘uh…?’
At first glance, Myla’s lips slowly drew an arc.
‘what? What did you do to me…’
It was the moment when I thought it was clear.
Pew-!
My vision went down and my eyes became dark.
Humanization was released.
