I Dislike The Male Lead’s child.
ch.76 part 1
TL/N: In this novel, a single quotation mark (‘) is used for internal monologue, and quotation marks (“) are used for external dialogue.
Even if it wasn’t because of Asellus, it was foolish to badmouth Robtree, who was at the center of the social world.
Robtrees are celebrities in the social world, and this stigma is carved into their bloodline.
Avril, who became the Marquis’s wife, was difficult to associate with.
“They were anxious to get buried.”
“They can only blame themselves; still, it’s quite pitiful.”
“Well, they wouldn’t have thought they’d end up in a hospital bed for this mistake.”
Zune and his companions are the number one source of troublemakers, including spreading false rumors.
But now, because of Asellus’ outburst, everyone feels relieved.
“Do you know that many people quit social circles because of them?”
“I guess they tried to corner the Marchioness in the same way? That’s foolish.”
But at the end of the story, that plan backfired.
“Anyway, it’s better not to mess with the Marchioness.”
“The Marquis has become a national hero. Even the King has begun to take notice of the family.”
The Austells had become an openly inviolable territory.
When others are doing well, it’s normal to feel jealous, but they are beyond the point of jealousy.
The Marquis of Austell has now become a top-hierarchy as an unprecedented wizard.
A person who creates things that do not exist and destroys things that do not exist.
According to the words of those who went with him to subdue the sea monster, it was also possible to stop time and dye the sky bright red.
You can’t even laugh at it for being excessive, as more than one person witnessed the battle scene.
In fact, it was reported that the coastal area where the naval battle took place was so scorched that it was beyond impossible to recover its original appearance.
What can you do to stop someone like that?
If you want to live a long time, it is best to keep your mouth shut.
*********
All kinds of rumors circulated and even reached Princess Andria’s ears.
And now the protagonist of the rumor was in front of her.
Andrea looked at Asellus with a strange expression.
‘He is just as described in the novel.’
A cold and cynical personality but beautiful looks that cover up any flaws.
The only difference was that the eyes that can be made by anyone, regardless of gender, to fall in love became unusually cold as soon as he saw her.
His expression was way colder than it was when he was with Avril.
It’s to the point where Andrea wonders why he asked for an audience if it would be a cold war.
To live up to the mood, Andria asked playfully.
“Hmm. Do you like me?”
“Is that even possible?” replied Asellus
Andrea laughed at the sharp answer.
Asellus’s face distorted after hearing her laugh.
However, his mana is stable.
As she expected, Asellus prevented his mana from rampaging because of Avril.
So then, why did the Marquise request an audience with her?
Andrea became genuinely curious. She asked, letting go of the fan she was elegantly holding.
“I didn’t know the Lord would come visit me.”
“I have something to tell you about my wife.” – Asellus.
“Yes, of course.” – Andrea
Andrea’s eyes shone like crystals.
Avril seemed to be the only thing on Asellus’ mind.
Even though Asellus knew it was the right time to gain wealth, the fact that he returned home as soon as the monster hunt was over was proof of this.
A person like that becomes the center of scandals.
The reason for coming here is obvious.
Andrea nodded as if she understood without listening to a single word.
“I didn’t cause the scandal.”
Asellus laughed, hearing the answer as if it were a joke.
“But you are silent. That is called tacit consent.”
At Asellus’s reply, Andrea became tongue-tied.
Asellus guessed right.
She tacitly agreed with the king’s strategy.
Because she didn’t have the strength to oppose it right away.
She stayed silent even after assuring Avril about the false rumors.
Andrea can’t do anything reckless.
She needs a backup plan.
‘She wondered if this could be an opportunity.’
However, it had to be said someday, so Andrea looked at Asellus and said.
“I am a powerless princess, so I have no choice if the Marquis does not help me.”
A sneer appeared on Asellus’ mouth.
“Are you telling me to help you, Princess?”
“Yes, I want to shake hands with you, but why do you look disgusted?”
“Now that you know, it’s enough.”
Asellus’s expression became more cold.
His attitude was unpleasant about not backing down even an inch.
“It seems like you don’t even think about the other person’s perspective.” -Andrea.
Mana flowed from his body.
Unrestrained mana scattered everywhere, pricking Andrea’s skin.
Fortunately, Andrea’s mana affinity is so excellent that she can endure Asellus’s uncontrollable mana.
Of course, even she calculated it, and there was a strong possibility that Asellus had infinite mana, but now it’s beyond imagination.
It was powerful enough to make one crumble, but Andrea did not go down easily.
She barely smiled and answered.
“Though I am at the focal point of the scandal, let’s correct it. Unless His Majesty changes his mind, your wife will continue to be attacked. Won’t it be better for you to join hands with me?”
“No! Absolutely not”
“Does your wife also think the same?” – Andrea
Asellus hardened his expression.
His feelings were expressed by his furrowed eyebrows.
“I hope you don’t drag Avril into this situation.”
As expected, it seemed like only Avril existed in his mind and heart.
Other than that, anything else does not matter.
