When The Count’s Illegitimate Daughter Gets Married

e to escape alive!

“Because……!”

A large shadow fluttering above startled her.
Her eyes flitted upwards to see the dragon flying above the vacant lot.

“How can God do this to us? I can’t believe the dragon came all the way here!”

“Grrrrr…..”

Drops of blood splattered on the ground as the dragon’s torn wings shook.
Its eyes had already lost the light.

The dragon’s last breath was cut off.

“Madam, hide behind me……”

Redra woke up from her seat to protect Laritte.

“Don’t speak nonsense.
How are you going to protect me?”

Laritte dabbed on Redra’s wound. Ah, ah!

Laritte ran away pushing Redra.

Unfortunately, the dragon’s large body started to descend over the vacant lot, right over Laritte.

“Get away from it!”

Everyone screamed and moved away from the dragon.
The space below it cleared away as people ran.

The dragon’s tail got closer to Laritte’s head.

It was faster than she could ever run away.

It was when it was inches apart, Laritte pushed Stella and Redra away.

Stella understood her meaning and grabbed Redra’s shoulder before she hit the ground.

“Madam!!!”

Redra reached out for Laritte.

Laritte tasted blood.
She didn’t know when, but blood spewed out her mouth.

Feeling the bitterness, she thought.

I know how to sacrifice for someone.

The first person that came to her mind was…

Ian, thank you for telling me a lot of amazing things.

In the next life, I will be born as a human being who can repay you.

It was time for her to gently close her eyes when finally Seta came.

“Oh, dear.”

Wrapping his arms around Laritte’s waist, he ran out of the range of the dragon’s fall.

It happened in a flash.

Seta grinned, still grabbing her waist.

“Are you okay, human?”

“Yes.
Thank you.
Fortune-teller.”

Laritte almost lost her life but responded normally.

Seta praised himself.

Perfect timing!

Amazing skills that match that!

At that time, he thought of asking for the favor he’d been enduring all along.

“If you’re thankful, let me borrow your face.”

“How?”

Seta thought she was an amazing human being.

Even though he had asked this for 200 years, she didn’t seem shocked like others.

“It’s not that hard either.
I can put the gel made of mana on your face, wait until it hardens, and remove it.”

“I don’t care if it’s that much.”

“YES!”

Just in time, Ian arrived at the scene.
He checked Laritte’s face through her sweat and blood-soaked hair.

The dragon was dead and Laritte avoided it.
Everything was good except the fortune-teller hugging Laritte.

He didn’t know what was going on, but blood vessels popped out of his skin.

You dare touch her?

One of the nobles asked Ian.

“Do you know anything about the place where the Duchess tried to kill the Empress?”

What are you talking about?

Ian silently stared at the man.
The nobleman, overwhelmed by the momentum, stuttered and looked at the Empress.

Ian sighed.

He had heard the story so many times.

“Please explain, Your Majesty.”

“I clearly heard the Duke’s wife ordering the red-haired female knight to kill me.”

“You and I, we’re both well aware that this cannot be the case.
Tell me the truth.”

His sword was still in his hand.
It was a very rude attitude, but no one dared to step in.

The Empress looked everywhere for help, but everyone looked away.

The Duchy of Reinhardt had regained its former position.
It was a family of lions that people looked up to more than the imperial family itself.

The Empress felt nauseous.
She had hated this for a long time.

The best of the empire was always the imperial family and herself, but nothing changed even when she tried to ruin the Duke’s name.

“W-What do you know, you weren’t there…….Or was it you who made your wife do that? Right, are you the one behind her committing treason?”

Ian laughed.

“You’re probably the one who’s committing the actual treason.
Your desire so much that you even touched His Majesty, the Emperor.”

At this point, she even thought that it’d be right to commit treason.
