I Unintentionally Cured The Grand Duke’s Insomnia - Chapter 64

32. What Happened at the Square? (4)

B-By the way, what kind of day is it today? Its kind of festive in the square?

Its a holiday set by the papacy to celebrate the birth of Saint Barcel.

If its a holiday, isnt it a big deal?

Usually, it is.

Usually?

This year, they say that in order to celebrate the return of the Saint in a month, theyll hold a small celebration for Saint Barcel.

My eyes widened at his calm words.

If it was celebrating the return of the Saintess

Irene? Are you talking about Irene Rochere returning to Aren?

Irene?

Yes, the only Saint of Lian!

As Cain nodded his head as I asked him with shining eyes, his answer made my heart thump.

You look quite happy.

Of course. Ive always wanted to meet her.

The Saint?

Yes. Shes a beautiful woman with blonde hair and clear blue eyes, and shes the heroine anyway

The end of my words, which had risen with excitement, became blurred without my knowledge. When I stopped my steps alongside him, Cain turned to face me.

Adelia?

Around us, lanterns celebrating the birth of St. Barcel were dotted around the square, and in the midst of it, he was gazing at me from among those lanterns.

Im like a passing extra or an ex-girlfriend he met by chance before he meets his true love?

Im the kind of that ex-girlfriend whos like, Did the male lead ever date someone like that? rather than his unforgettable innocent first love.

Maybe, I would have to go away this time?

When Irene, the true heroine of this novel and Cains savior, returned to Arn, I would become the original extra Young Lady again. Besides, he was someone who was destined to be with Irene and the other main character in this novel.

Adelia Blase.

Cains muffled voice seemed to remind me.

This wasnt my place.

Even so, my heart leaped again with a roaring sound.

Even though it was definitely something I had hoped and wished for, I couldnt figure out why I was feeling this way.

: * * :

Why dont you pick one?

The man seemed familiar with Evelyns irritated voice. Meanwhile, the bookstore owner busily rolled his eyes at the corners of Evelyns eyes, which went up ferociously as if he was more conscious of them.

Still, the man was nonchalant and turned to the owner and asked.

So, this is the new book?

Ah, yes. Since theres an anniversary of the Saints return to Aren coming up soon and everyones in the mood to celebrate rather than read, publication of new books tends to be pushed back.

The man nodded as if he understood the owners words.

Its one thing to publish a book and not have anyone read it.

Yes, thats right.

Saying so, his eyes twinkled as though he was grateful to the man who sympathized with him.

The man who was perusing the books on the stall lowered his head to the owner and asked.

By the way, do you carry Milcells novels here, too?

The owners eyes widened at his whispered question. Glancing at the surroundings, he then lowered his head toward the man before slowly opening his mouth.

Are you looking for the new novel that just came out recently?

.

What happened in the stable?

The corner of the owners mouth lifted as the mans smiling face was the answer. He continued talking as if excited by his reaction.

Your timing is excellent. To be honest, I wouldnt have any of Milcells novels later, so I wouldnt be able to sell them.

Is that so?

Yes. Yesterday, a knight from the Grand Duke of Destro also came by and bought a copy.

After fumbling around under the stall for a while, the owner soon laughed as he handed the man the book hed found underneath.

Would you like to buy it? This is the last book left in our bookstore.

Yes. Ill buy it.

Dont go around calling yourself my brother, you pervert.

Evelyns eyes widened in disgust when she saw the book the man was holding. At the same time, the man handed the money to the owner, seemingly unperturbed by her behavior.

Ten pesos, is that right?

Yes, thats right.

The man, who smiled gratefully, hurried after her. Walking up beside Evelyn, who was walking ahead of him, he spoke in a friendly voice.

Why are you so angry, Evelyn?

Go away! I have nothing to say to a pervert like you

However, at that moment, Evelyns voice, mixed with annoyance, faded indefinitely, and as she narrowed her eyes as if she was examining something, the man turned his head to follow her gaze as well.

Cain Destro?

What Evelyn was looking at was Cain The only Grand Duke of this country and the man she loved.

Why is he here no, but who is he looking at?

The man followed Cains gaze, but he couldnt see whom he was looking at. The womans face, hidden from view by passersby, lingered in his mind.
