When the Male Lead is Obsessed with the Youngest Daughter of the Villain Family - Chapter 38

“Estiya!”

I had to wake up from a sweet sleep at the touch that shook me to wake me up.

It was noisy outside. Jane came in first.

“Miss, you are here!”

Seeing her crying, I seemed to know who she was talking to. It sounds like someone has come to find me. Looking at Jane’s face, I can tell without telling who arrived.

“Okay. I will leave.”

“You don’t have to leave, Estiya.”

Rodrigo grabbed me as I was about to get up, and he kindly covered me with a blanket. I looked at the door with only my eyes wide open at the gentle touch.

The barracks door opened with a fluttering sound. The scorching heat rushed into the barracks. Kaylan, Ether, and Eila came rushing in very angry. Vigorously, Ether let out a shaky breath and threw the dagger. Directly towards Rodrigo’s neck!

Rodrigo shrugged his shoulders with a sullen face. He avoided it at the right time, but if he was a little late, that would’ve been it for him.

“You punk! You avoided that? Am I supposed to forgive you for that?”

Ether’s fists trembled.

“What does it mean to be forgiven after death?”

I covered my face with both hands. That’s true, but it’s a very silly thing to say.

“Move! Can’t you handle that one properly?”

Next was Eyla. She cracked her palms, moved back, and ran forward. When Rodrigo was within range, Eyla raised her long, outstretched legs.

Kick!

This time, Rodrigo easily escaped. Eyla flew away and fell in front of Jane.

“I was wrong, miss.”

Jane quickly knelt down.

“Later!”

Eyla jumped up and dusted herself off, and I reached out to stop her as she was about to run to Rodrigo. Eyla couldn’t ignore my hand pulling her on her collar.

“Estiya!”

She shivered and looked at Rodrigo, but she didn’t attack anymore. Anyway, Kaylan was preparing for the next attack. Kaylan sprinted up and punched Rodrigo. With a popping sound, Rodrigo’s face turned rapidly. Even Kaylan, who hit him, was surprised that he didn’t expect Rodrigo to get hit.

“Rodrigo!”

I was surprised too. With his wits, he could never be beaten. I couldn’t shake the thought that he had not avoided him on purpose.

“Lie down, Estiya.”

He glanced at me and smiled, wiping the tip of his blood-stained lip with the back of his hand.

“What are you doing? You could have avoided it!”

“If I dodge it, they would attack again, right?”

“That’s why you did it on purpose, right?”

“I think I may have done the right thing.”

Rodrigo shook his chin slowly from side to side.

“Even if my dear little sister runs away from home twice, I would want to twist the neck, which is the cause.”

Sweet words echoed fiercely. Perhaps he liked those words, Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla’s anger subsided. They even nodded their heads dynamically.

“But it does hurt.”

Rodrigo wrinkled his forehead.

Oh, and his crumpled face looks good too.

“I only have alcohol, would you like a drink?”

Leaving Kaylan, Eyla, and Ether, who had hardened out of absurdity, Rodrigo opened a small box in the barracks. It was a luxury on the battlefield to pour water into small pottery kettles and take the time to brew tea slowly. No, that was stupid.

It was much more economical and meaningful to bring alcohol to the space where the teacup set was prepared. Jane took the bottle that Rodrigo had pulled out and moved it to the table. Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla stared at Jane. She snuck up next to me after hiccuping.

“Estiya, do you really like a guy like that?”

An arrow flew at me. I got up and ran my hand through my messy hair. Here the answer was set.

“Yes.”

Both of Rodrigo’s eyebrows rose and fell. Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla’s shoulders dropped exaggeratedly. Silence passed.

“Enough to follow this beggar to a battlefield like this?”

Rodrigo took a half step forward to refute the beggar’s comment, but I shook my head. I, too, decided that his barracks weren’t good enough to be considered beggars, but I didn’t want to hurt Kaylan’s heart any more.

“Wherever he is, I will follow more than this.”

He seemed to be more hurt by my subsequent words. I apologized to him in my heart and looked at Rodrigo with eyes armed with firm affection.

“Hey! Are you saying you’ll be here until the war is over?”

“It means I’ll come often before the war is over.”

I lied a bit because I thought Kaylan would explode if I said that I would stay here.

“Did you hear that, Ether?”

Eyla muttered in disbelief.

“Our pretty Estiya often comes to this dirty and obscene place!”

“Nonsense! In this place where the dust smells of blood?”

Rodrigo must be annoyed to be evaluated like that by those people. I glanced at him for no reason.

“If I had known Estiya was coming, I would have cleaned it up more. Estiya, can you give me a message in advance next time? I’ll have to shake off the dust and wash the blankets.”

“Hey! Wash the duvet?!”

“Doesn’t she need a place to rest when she is tired?”

Saying so, Rodrigo placed his hand on my shoulder. Eyla and Ether’s faces turned red.

Huh? Sisters, you can’t imagine something weird!

“Would you like to sit down? Would you make Estiya keep looking up?”

His excuses made Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla sit around the table. There were plenty of chairs in Rodrigo’s room, as he usually had meetings with key people, so I swung the chair towards Jane.

‘You sit down too.’

At the unspoken words, Jane shook her head and pointed her hand out the door.

‘Can’t I go out, Miss? I think I’m going to choke to death.’

Jane’s position was completely understandable. I waved my hand.

‘Now is the time to get out.’

Everyone was scolding me to be next to them. Rodrigo looked at me pitifully. Although I was embarrassed, they did not stop. Meanwhile, Jane quickly ran out of the barracks. Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla didn’t have as good of a memory as I thought. In the meantime, they gave Jane a little compliment.

I sat down next to Rodrigo with optimism.

The facial expressions hardened by the shock of Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla were worth seeing. A resentful gaze fell on Rodrigo. He was a little embarrassed, but I smiled lightly and patted his thigh.

‘Smile.’

Rodrigo smiled broadly. I didn’t know if he was really obedient or not.

The story went on for quite some time. It was mainly an interrogation towards Rodrigo. He repeated the same thing.

– I like Estiya.

– She can do anything she wants.

– I have no way of stopping her from coming here.

“So what are you going to do?”

Eventually, Kaylan couldn’t contain the excitement and jumped up from his seat.

“What can I do? I can’t help it.”

“You can’t help it?! Estiya must not come!”

Estiya raised her hand, unable to hear the conversation that continued like a trumpet song. In the eyes of everyone, he turned to Estiya.

“Do you want me to tell you how not to come here?”

“You aren’t coming?”

Rodrigo asked in surprise. There was a slight disappointment at the end of his voice.

Every time I come, this uncomfortable situation repeats itself. I shook my head. Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla’s eyes lit up.

“The war will just have to end.”

Isn’t that a really clear answer?

“When Rodrigo returns to the capital, I won’t be here anymore.”

Kaylan’s mouth fell open. Next is Ether, and finally Eyla.

I looked at Rodrigo.

‘How did I do?’

Rodrigo raised the corner of his mouth with a strange expression and then laughed out loud. Read only at pm tl.

“You are such a wonderful woman. How funny!”

“Don’t laugh, because I’m serious.”

Wouldn’t it be great if Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla could help Rodrigo to end this war quickly?

It will also give the impression that our family did a good job to the people of the Empire.

“I mean, all we have to do is end the war, right?”

“I will go to my father.”

“I’ll ask the Crown Prince…”

Everyone found their own thing to do and moved on, but I had no choice but to stop Kaylan.

“You can’t talk to the prince.”

“Why?”

Emperor Tereo’s army was mighty. He was the supreme commander of the empire and had the largest army. He has several knights with excellent abilities and also a few precious wizards. If Emperor Tereo actively went to war, the situation would be settled quickly.

“If someone wanted to come forward, they would have come right away. Rather than the Crown Prince, I plan to meet the Emperor Tereo in person and set up a discussion.”

I said with a determined expression. Kaylan, Ether, and Eyla narrowed their eyes to figure out what I meant.

“I’m not asking, I’m threatening.”

Everyone’s faces hardened. Only Rodrigo looked at me and smiled. I couldn’t look back at him because of the affection in his hot gaze.

“Your Majesty, Miss Estiya has asked for an audience. Lord Kaylan came with her.”

In the morning, Emperor Tereo fell into a deep sleep after a very long time. He heard last night that Rodrigo’s battlefield conditions were not good, and he drank in comfort after a long time.

“Isn’t it too early?”

As Emperor Tereo reacted sharply, the servant bowed his head.

“She said it was a race for the hour.”

They were the children of a noble without titles. He wasn’t sure if the emperor would meet them even if they asked to meet him in advance.

“Tell them to go back, write a message in advance, and wait for a call.”

It was the Emperor Tereo’s courtesy to his cherished servants that he did not inflict severe punishment.

“Your Majesty, Miss Estiya said that if Your Majesty refused to meet her, I will give you this.”

The servant trembled and pushed the box toward the emperor. He did not immediately carry out Emperor Tereo’s orders and delivered Estiya’s words to him, which was a big sin, but Kaylan’s gaze came to mind.

-If you don’t tell him properly, I’ll kill you.

He had been working in the Imperial Palace for over 20 years. He has met a lot of really different people, but it has been a while since he met someone with eyes like Kaylan.

‘It’s crazy.’

Emperor Tereo was not a mad dog, so the servant chose to postpone Emperor Tereo’s orders for a while. And the choice was right.

“This, this, this! Bring in Miss Estiya right now!”

Emperor Tereo, who had opened the box, said with great surprise.
