The Obsessive Male Lead Made Me The Female Lead - Chapter 91

After a while, Seirin captured her expression and greeted me as if they had reached an agreement.

“Welcome, Miss Tiarozety.”

“Long time no see, Princess.”

As I greeted her lightly, Gregory seated Seirin first and then pulled my chair back.

“Thank you, Prince.”

“You’re welcome.”

Gregory sat next to me with a smile.

Seirin’s complexion didn’t look good.

Then the maid brought another teacup.

In addition to the tea set, some large crystal balls and horoscope tools were placed on the table.

It looked pretty professional for a hobby.

“This is…”

“Ah, I’m very interested in astrology these days. I forgot to clean up because I was playing with it for a while. Luna.”

Seirin forced a smile and called out a maid named Luna.

My ears pricked up at the name ‘Luna’.

Because I heard that the newcomer was ‘Luna Diason’.

‘Is that her?’

I sneakily glanced at her face.

Luna came with her face covered with a veil.

From what I’ve heard, the face is not aesthetically pleasing, so it is said that she hides her face.

Of course, I didn’t know if it was true.

Because the only ones who saw her face were Betty and Seirin.

Seirin said calmly.

“Clean up the stuff here.”

“But…”

As Luna hesitated, Seirin smiled more brightly.

“Hurry.”

“All right.”

Luna reluctantly put away the horoscope tools set with Betty one after another.

It was difficult to see her face even though I was right next to her.

The veil was so tight and the hat was pressed deeply, so it was difficult to determine the color of the hair.

‘I should get closer.’

I dropped a tool on purpose to check Luna’s face.

And I groaned loudly, pretending to be embarrassed.

“Ah!”

“I’ll pick it up.”

Luna said cautiously and bent her upper body.

“No, I…!”

I deliberately got up and sat down to make eye contact with her.

“……!”

As I got much closer, Luna widened her eyes in embarrassment.

I grabbed her wrist as she flinched and tried to step back.

“Miss?”

Luna looked down at me with a puzzled face.

The veil fluttered as she got up and her face was immediately visible.

I checked her face and opened my mouth.

The face hidden behind the black veil was quite familiar.

I muttered in a whisper in amazement.

“…Alois?”

“……!”

When I called her name without realizing it, Aloi’s red eyes shook wildly.

 I didn’t expect the new maid to be Alois.

I was so startled that I froze.

Alua and I looked with our eyes fixed on each other.

Both were surprised at each other in a different sense.

“What’s wrong?”

Then, Seirin spoke to us who were still standing.

Only then did Alois come to her senses and quickly grabbed my hand and got me up.

“Thank you, miss. I almost fell.”

“You’re welcome.”

I sat back down in response to Alua’s witty excuses.

Alois said to Seirin.

“I’ll stop stepping on my skirt and get up.”

“You have to be careful.”

“I’ll clean it up quickly.”

After that, Alois hurriedly disappeared with her tools.

As she went outside, she glanced at me and was perplexed, but tried to ignore me.

Calling her name was a mistake.

Because this is the first time I’ve met her in this life.

Surprised by her identity, I just uttered words without knowing it.

‘The blonde noble young lady that Lark said he saw was Betty Diason.’

When what I feared became true, I began to think a lot.

Why did Seirin take Alois Beth as her maid?

The horoscope tools that the maids took with them looked similar to those used by magicians.

That means Seirin knows that Alois is a magician.

‘What the hell are you up to? What were you trying to do?’

“Miss Tiarozety?”

“Ah.”

“The tea is going to get cold. What are you thinking about so intently?”

Seirin said, glancing at the teacup.

“Oh, I’m sorry. I need to think about something for a moment… “

“The lady must be tired.”

Gregory pushed a brownie toward me and talked to me.

“Or is the sugar level low?”

“I guess so. Thank you, Prince.”

I ate the brownie he gave me with a fork.

‘I need to send a messenger to Zion. Alois Beth was in Sparrow Castle.’

“It’s good.”

II laughed bashfully, pretending nothing was wrong.

“Right? I hear it a lot, Miss Tiarozety.”

Seirin’s voice was gentle, but her face was subtle.

Are you nervous or anxious?

Or a face that I don’t know if it’s angry.

The face of Seirin, who was trying to forcefully smile, was very unfamiliar.

On the other hand, Gregory was calm.

‘It’s because of what Gregory said earlier. You don’t look so happy the whole time.’

There was a feeling of doubt but no physical evidence, so I quietly followed the tea-time atmosphere.

***

When it was time to break the tea time, I got up naturally.

“Then I’ll be on my way.”

“See you next time, Miss Tiarozety.”

“Lady, I’ll take you back.”

As Gregory tried to stand up after me, Seirin grabbed his arm.

“Where are you going, brother? You have to talk to me.”

Seirin’s smiling face was somehow cool.

Gregory hesitated.

“Seirin, let’s talk when I’m back.”

Seirin stared at Gregory without replying.

It was clear what those eyes were saying, and Gregory had a rather perplexed expression on his face.

He looked at me and Seirin in turn and moistened his lips.

Heavy air hovered over the table.

There must have been a war of nerves between the two.

I thought I couldn’t, so I said no to Gregory.

“It’s all right, Prince. I’ll go alone.”

“Still…”

“Be careful on your way, Miss Tiarozety.”

While Gregory hesitated, Seirin smiled and dismissed it.

He couldn’t hold out any longer, so he plopped into his seat.

I don’t know what’s going on, but I thought things would get worse if Gregory followed me here.

I bowed lightly and then left.

It was when I was about to leave the villa.

Suddenly, someone grabbed my arm.

“……!”

There was no time to scream in surprise.

It was not until I was dragged into the room that I knew who was pulling me.

It was Alois Beth.

The eyes behind the veil gleamed sharply and looked at me alertly.

What happened a few hours ago seemed to have just stood out.

She asked bluntly.

“Who are you?”

Her voice was very cynical.

I knew her name, so she was very wary.

“What are you doing?”

I sighed and took a step back.

Then Alois said, raising the veil.

“You know who I am.”

She spoke in honorifics belatedly.

Perhaps she seemed to recall that this was Sparrow Castle, and she had come as a maid.

When the veil was lifted, I was right that it was indeed, Alois Beth. 

Seeing her acting like a prickly cat reminded me of the past.

‘She was like that when we first met.’

Lexion had met her, a descendant of a magician, ahead of the subjugation.

After Lavita was devastated, she went straight to the capital and belonged to the imperial family.

The first time I saw her at the gathering for subjugation, she looked like she was about to explode if touched.

Her vigilance soon melted like snow when she heard about the situation of Lexion and me. 

It was because she felt sympathy for my situation in which my clan was annihilated and the situation in Lexion, where Bael had collapsed.

‘Come to think of it, I’m glad I called your name by mistake.’

That’s why the vigilant woman came to me.

I was rather grateful for her aggressiveness because I was trying to make a point of contact with her.

‘I’d rather be happy. While we’re at it, we need to find out why Alois came here.’ 

In her previous life, she was a colleague of Lexion and a colleague of mine.

We had been together for quite some time, and we had our own comradeship.

In a world that is collapsing, the only people I can rely on are my colleagues.

I said, looking at Alois softly.

“Yes, I know. That you are Alois Beth, that you are a magician.”

“!!”

Alois staggered back.

It was an overreaction to being embarrassed by the discovery of her identity.

After a while, she asked angrily.

“Oh, since when did you know? I was hiding it secretly.”

Hide? what?

I blinked because I didn’t know what she was talking about.

I just said that I knew her identity, but she was making the face of someone who found out something bigger.

‘Let’s ask more questions.’

If it was to deal with the embarrassed Alois, I was confident.

At that moment, Alois ruffled her hair and muttered.

“No wonder, my magic didn’t work. Who is it? Who’s helping her? I’ve never done this before…”

“No way. Did you try to use a technique on me?”

“!!”

Alois lit up in great bewilderment.

I said with my eyes wide open.
