SPMB - Chapter 48

My Body Has Been Possessed By Someone




 Just then, a commotion came from outside the door.

"Duchess Valentino is gone!" 

"What happened?" 

"I don't know. The Duchess sprayed me with something and I fell asleep!"

This... It's like fucking timing...

Kanna hears the sound of the knights busily dispersing. When the sound of footsteps has completely gone, suffocating silence lingers in the room.

"I mean."

Let's calm down, Kanna. They said that even if you enter the tiger's den, you can survive if you stay alert. Stay calm, Stay calm...

"Therefore...... It seems like the Duke is overworked and can't sleep."

No. This is not it!

"I want to ease the burden, as you know, sleep is a very important factor in determining the quality of life."

Bullshit, gibberish. No matter what she says, at this moment, it's just a lame excuse. Kanna wanted to die. But Sylvien silently listened to her words, with a very serious face.

"Is that so?" 

Goose bumps ran through Kanna's body when she even nodded as if impressed by her spending. Silvienne Valentino was smiling even at this moment. To the person who attacked him, he is kind like a respectful gentleman. That unusual straightness slowly strangled Kanna's neck. 

"Miss Kanna."

Then, Sylvien grabbed Kanna's wrist. It was soft, but it was as heavy as a lump of iron. She was startled. Kanna reflexively tried to shake it off, but his hand didn't budge.

"The recent Miss Kanna."

Sylvien snatched the perfume bottle from Kanna's grasp. After scanning it intently, he sprayed it lightly toward Kanna's face. Good.

"It's pretty fun."

This, damn it, son of a bitch....

The effect was still immediate. Kanna was suddenly drowsy and her vision blurred. As expected, it works so well, but why doesn't it work on that child...

'This bad, baby....... I tried with all my might, but in the end, it was all.'

Her knees bent and her body fell over. A strong arm grabbed her. She wondered if it was an illusion, or if it sounded like a faint laugh.

Finally, she lost consciousness.

***

'I feel refreshed!"

Meanwhile. Chloe, the hostess of the Addis mansion, was in a very good mood. She finally got rid of her troublesome stepdaughter, Kanna! 

'Now peace has come."

Kanna caused a stir in the mansion which was like a calm lake. Kanna, who tarnished the honor of Addis, now was gone. It'll be peaceful again like before.

"Chloe, the Duke of Addis has returned."

Finally. Alessandro is back!

Chloe quickly made her way to his bedroom. Although married, they shared separate bedrooms. Alessandro, who had a clear disposition, never gave his bed to anyone and Chloe never stayed in his bed for more than a few hours.

It was fine though.

His callousness and indifference, not allowing others to approach, were not directed only at his wife. Alessandro was equally indifferent to everything in this world. So she was sure that he wouldn't mind whether or not Kanna left without saying a word. No, he had to.

"Welcome, Duke. You did an excellent job."

Alessandro was sitting on the sofa, shirtless. Was he tired? He had a glass of whiskey in his hand.

"Did you wash?"

"Not yet."

"Then I will attend the bath today."

"I don't want to."

A resolute refusal without even consideration. She is used to this kind of rejection as if she is breathing, so it's nothing. Chloe smiled and sat down next to him.

"I heard that monsters appeared in the Black Fog this time as well. It's been quiet for a while, but recently it's been polarizing."

"..."

"You are working really hard to protect the Aslan Empire and the West Continent."

It sounds like a mouthful, but it was all true. Without Alessandro, without the descendants of Addis and Valentino, the Western Continent would have perished as well.

The Southern Continent has already been destroyed - a paladin of the age of magic, descendants of that divine being. Without them, the Black Fog would have destroyed the West Continent as well.

'Of course, Addis plays a role in protecting the West Continent from the Black Fog in the Great War."

Still, without the two guardian families. Valentino and Addis, the Western Continent would not have been able to enjoy such peace. 

However, Alessandro was not very impressed by Chloe's words. He just drank the whiskey in one gulp. Watching his thick neck growl, Chloe refilled his empty glass with whiskey. 

"So you should rest comfortably at home. Anyway, I solved one of my headaches. You must have been uncomfortable because of Kanna."

In an instant, their eyes met. A long time ago, Chloe's tongue froze because it had been a long time since he had looked at her so head-on.

Alexandro said nothing. But the green eyes staring straight at her demanded an explanation after that. Chloe hurriedly continued, feeling her mouth burning. 

"The Valentino family called Kanna. So I sent her out."

"..."

"Don't worry, we won't meet her again in the future."

***

"Sister."

...No

Recalling the warning not to call her sister, Kalen coldly changed her words.

"Kanna Valentino has left?"

"Right."

"Did she leave on her own will?"

"Then would I have kicked her in the ass and kicked her out?"

But Kalen couldn't believe her mother's words. In the meantime, the mansion was vacated for several weeks due to monster subjugation. His father went home once in the middle and returned, but it was a long time ago for Kalen. And in the meantime, a lot has happened. 

Doesn't Kanna almost get the death penalty?

Doesn't everything turn out to be a misunderstanding? 

Isn't she healing the Princess well?

And this time, what?

Sister, no, Kanna went back on her own?

Why?

Wasn't she staying at this mansion to get her father's permission for a divorce?

"Great! That's right, brothers!"

Isabelle was visibly delighted with this good news, but Kalen pretended not to hear and asked his mother.

"Does Father know?"

"Yeah, yes."

"Did he say anything?"

"Of course. It's the Duke, he's always like that."

Chloe said so, but Kalen didn't believe it. Seeing his mother's complexion darkened for a moment, she seemed to be hiding something. 

How did father react to that?

The moment he opens your mouth to ask in detail...

"I knew it would be like this."

Orsini, who had been listening silently, laughed wildly.

"After chasing Duke Valentino, she ended up going back to him again. Stupid bitch!"

For some reason, Orsini seemed very hurt. 

"From the beginning, it must have been a ploy to attract the attention of Sylvienne. She used dragons to get attention."

Orsini swears incessantly. 

"Still, it didn't work, so she crawled into it on her own. It's pitiful, no matter how much she struggles, who cares what she does?"

The more he talked, the more Orsini's tone became more and more stern.

"That filth is using me- the Addis family to get Sylvien's attention!"

Could it be that he couldn't stand the anger? At that moment, the glass in Orsini's hand shattered with a popping sound. Shards of glass shattered, blood dripping from his hands.

Isabelle exclaimed in surprise. 

"Brother! Why are you so passionate about her?"

"Because that stupid bitch looks like an asshole!"

But Orsini was so angry that he couldn't even feel the pain, and he shouted as he roughly brushed off the shards of glass.

"Look at what that filth did to win Sylvien's heart! That bitch made fun of Addis. She fooled me!"

Orsini, who shouted with a blushing face, gritted his teeth. Was that why she kicked off the offer to get her out of prison?

She thought maybe Sylvien would come. So she probably kicked off his offer. She would have waited for Sylvien to come, not anyone else! God, that mad bitch gambled with her life as a weapon!

"Brother, what the hell are you talking about?"

Kalen looked at Orsini with suspicious eyes.

"What happened to you and Sis... No, Kanna Valentino?" "

"Shit! Do you think I would have dealt with such a filthy bitch?"

Orsini snarled in a voice brimming with rage.

"Great! Tell that filthy bitch, don't mess around in Addis again, in front of my eyes. If I see her again, I won't let her go"

However, Kalen did not believe Orsini's words.
