Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times

Only with Catherine, he didn’t even want her to be seen by others too much.

He shouldn’t have promised Catherine that day, but he did.
Maybe he wasn’t even sure of his love for Catherine.

The more Balan thought, the more irritable he got.
He didn’t want to think about it any more.
He drank another half a glass of wine and looked at Rothgarr drunkenly and teased: “The day they escaped, I ‘punished’ Catherine severely.
How about you, Roth? Are you keeping Anna locked up these days?”

Balan was obsessed with doing important matters with Catherine that day.
He only knew that Rothgarr took Anna away in anger, so what happened next was logical to him.

Rothgarr poured himself a glass of wine in silence.

Seeing this, Balan sobered up a bit, and said in surprise, “You still haven’t done anything? The way you took Anna away that day, I thought she wouldn’t be able to get out of bed for three days.”

Rothgarr poured himself another glass of wine, looking cold.
He didn’t refute Balan.

Balan put down the glass and looked at Rothgarr with a serious expression: “Roth, if you are reluctant to kill Anna, bring her back to the Human Realm.”

At the beginning, he had made a bet with Roth, mostly to see Roth’s liveliness.
Even when he had met Anna later on, he didn’t change much.
But now, he found that Anna’s influence on Roth was too great, and Anna was definitely not a pushover, she would play Roth to the point of him willingly giving everything for her, even if she didn’t love him.

“Don’t worry about my matters.” Rothgarr gave Balan a menacing look, “Take care of your woman, don’t let her affect Anna!”

When Balan heard Rothgarr saying something negative about Catherine, he was immediately angry.
He frowned: “It’s Anna who’s leading Catherine astray! Before Anna came, Catherine was very good, but look what happened once Anna came.
Of course it’s Anna’s fault! Catherine is the purest lamb, Anna is a cunning viper, you have to be clear about things!”

Rothgarr thought, Anna was cunning, but her cunning was cute.
Why did Balan call her a viper?

He threw the glass at Balan angrily.

The drinking this time eventually turned into a fist-fight.
However, considering Balan’s wedding ceremony the next day, the two avoided each other’s faces when they fought.

Rothgarr glanced at Anna again.
He wanted to take Anna in his arms and kiss her sweet lips, but his pride as the Grand Duke of The Abyss would not allow him to do so.

He didn’t want to think about the nasty question of whether demons would fall in love with humans, but Anna’s fragile appearance at that time always jumped out to stop him.

Maybe it was a good idea to kill Anna or send her back to the Human Realm, according to Balan.
But…he couldn’t do it.

He seemed to understand somewhat at the time when he asked Leon to stay away from Anna, and when Leon answered “I can’t”, it was not that he could not, but that he was reluctant.
