I'm Not Interested In The Main Characters-Chapter 18

Elysia frowned when she received a letter from Cassian.

Cassian informed that he would visit her mansion after work.

“No, we met the day before the meeting and during the meeting, so why again!”

His pretty face was overflowing during the meeting.

She was thinking of refusing most of the requests that asked her to meet in the future, but it was difficult to do so because of the incident that happened when she was saving Ryan.

‘I can’t learn horseback riding today.’

It was said that the monster subjugation moves from the gate on a horse, to the vicinity of the mountain range.

Ryan told Elysia that he has good motor skills, so he would have enough to learn from now on.

‘Would it matter if I put it off for a day?’

Elysia wrote back, sent it to her maid, and went out to the terrace. Her silver hair was colored scarlet.

A soft light emanated from Elysia’s wrist, who was holding the terrace railing. It was a magic tool used to communicate with Ramote.

Elysia infused magic into her bracelet.

The connection with Ramote was established, but no voice could be heard for a while.

Several people screamed along with Remote’s coughing.

“Old man? What’s going on?”

—Did you hear anything from Duke Lowell?

“My father? No.”

Ramote didn’t answer right away and stayed quiet.

Elysia noticed something strange and opened her mouth.

“What’s going on?”

—...Do not be surprised and listen. Duke Lowell’s party was attacked by a monster, on their way back to the Empire.

“What? Raid...? My father and brother?”

Elysia looked down at her bracelet and quickly blinked her eyes.

There was no sense of reality in what she just heard.

—I came to a town that was ambushed, but I can’t see them. I think they’ve run away towards the Jericho Mountains, but if they get in touch with you, let me know.

“Old man...!”

As soon as the words ended, the light that lit her magic stone went out.

Elysia stooped down.

‘I think it was said that the communication device that my father had was broken...’

There was a memory she heard from an informant last time.

‘After I contacted him, communication has not been established again.’

‘It seems that there was a problem with the communication tool.’

“What is this... There was nothing like this in the original story.”

Elysia’s arm fell powerlessly.

There may not have been a reason to mention it in the book.

At this point, it was mainly because Lumiere was getting into the social world for the first time and was adjusting to it.

The thought that her father and brother might have been in a hurry to return early because they were worried about her took over her head.

Starting with the rumors of her and Cassian, they must have already heard reports of her attempting to participate in the subjugation of the monsters, so they must have been worried.

‘Ah... It’s because of me.’

Things that had happened from the time she possessed into this world, to getting close to her family passed by her eyes like a kaleidoscope.

Elysia hurriedly went to her dressing room and took her magic bag.

On one side of the dressing room, there was luggage that had been prepared in advance because of the monster subjugation.

She shoved it into the bag as soon as she could get it.

Where should she go? Should she go to the place where Ramote is? Is he still safe? Her head was dizzy.

If they had contacted the mansion, she would have already received a report from the butler or informants.

Elysia took off the dress that she was wearing.

‘Comfortable clothes, comfortable clothes...’

She wore a black shirt over a thin slip and leather pants and returned to her room, grabbing the white robe she wore at the meeting.

“The map is... where is the map.”

Elysia was feeling impatient, so things couldn’t be seen well in her eyes.

Elysia bit her lower lip. Swiping her head, she leaned her head back.

Why couldn’t she have a quiet day?

She was in a villain’s body, so she wondered if things would go wrong no matter what she did.

‘Where is the fastest way to go?’

Since Elysia came to this world, she had never left the Empire. Capital and family estate. She only went around those two places.

Knock knock. Along with the sound of a knock, the voice of the maid, Gray, was heard.

“Lady! The Duke of Esteban is here. But I have something urgent to tell you...”

In addition to the maid Gray and her, she felt the presence of others. It was faint, but it was a familiar scent.

Elysia forgot that Cassian had decided to visit.

“Please tell them to come in.”

“But...”

From the maid’s point of view, no matter how urgent, she hesitated to let a man enter Elysia’s room.

There was also a reason that the Duke was not in the house.

However, as long as it was between lovers and the Lady allowed it, the maid had no choice. She opened the door.

“Excuse me.”

It was Cassian and his aide, Lloyd, who passed by the maid and came into the room.

Elysia, wearing a robe in simple attire, and a map spread on her desk, entered Cassian’s view. Even though they came in, Elysia did not acknowledge and fixed her gaze on the map.

He sighed a little as he swept his head over with one hand.

“You must have heard it already.”

At that, Elysia raised her head.

“What? Do you know? How? If they ever contact the Imperial Palace...”

Turning around, Lloyd blushed at Elysia’s appearance and turned around in a hurry.

It’s because Elysia’s button on her shirt wasn’t buttoned properly.

She was wearing one more layer of clothes under the shirt, but it couldn’t cover all her curves.

“I’ll explain, get out of here, Lloyd.”

“Yes, yes!” Lloyd left the room in a hurry.

Cassian frowned at Elysia and buttoned her shirt on his own since Elysia was not in a condition to button it herself.

As Elysia urged him to answer, she pulled Cassian’s hem.

“I just got into the carriage leaving the Imperial Palace then the knight in Duke Lowell’s party sent a message.”

“Such... But the communication tool my father has would not work. How...”

“I don’t know.”

Cassian locked Elysia’s buttons all the way to her neck and turned his gaze to the table.

He pointed to a place on Elysia’s map.

“This village was first attacked. This was the place where they sent a message.”

“What about my father and brother?”

“There were no words about the deceased. Your family’s safe, so they didn’t say anything. If something happens, it’s the number one thing that would be reported.”

Elysia exhaled and wiped her chest, but it was too early to be relieved. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

“It looks like they stepped into Jericho Mountains trying to avoid the monster’s attack. After that, the communication stopped working.”

Cassian saw Elysia and looked inside the room.

Just by looking at her outfit, as well as the magic bag and robes she had thrown at her side, he could see what Elysia was thinking.

Cassian sighed and wiped his face.

“Are you okay?”

Elysia shook her head. She couldn’t be okay.

“But you can’t. It’s dangerous.”

Cassian picked her magic bag, grabbed Elysia’s shoulder, and turned around.

“I am coming as well.”

His answer came out naturally with an expression that looked natural.

The Jericho Mountains was a place between the Geovan Empire of the West Continent and the East Continent, where Elysia was located. Originally, the mountain was very rough and there were many wild beasts, and it was a place where humans rarely visited.

From a few years ago, demons began to appear in the Jericho Mountains, and access was completely restricted.

That was why the Empire began to subdue monsters.

Elysia grabbed Cassian’s hand, trying to recall the contents of the original story in her mind.

Maybe there is a missing part.

“No. It’s too dangerous. We move with the subjugation team.”

“It’s too late. If anything happens in the meantime...!”

Already, her family has become precious to her. Elysia, who had never lost her family before, was afraid.

“Let’s go together.”

“I’m still going... what?” Something unexpected came from Cassian’s mouth.

“Then, the subjugation team...”

“The vice commander can take over. So, calm down a little, pack your luggage properly, and come to my room.”

‘I didn’t think you would go with me.’

If he goes with her, it will be much easier. No one knows the Jericho Mountains better than Cassian.

When he finished talking, Cassian left the room and instructed Lloyd who was waiting to do a few things.

Elysia looked inside her magic bag to see if anything was missing.

‘This amount of blood, it would be good for three weeks, right?’

She was fortunate to have the preservation magic.

The blood packs from all over the world were divided and contained as one meal. The blood was saved with the help of Ramote.

Elysia put on her robe to see Cassian returning to her room.

“I packed everything.”

“Then, we can go right away.”

When she put magic in her ring, her vision became a little dizzy.

Her mind, confused by the touch that tightly wraps her waist, calmed her down a bit.

She noticed the appearance of the room that she got used to.

“I’ll get ready, so take a break.”

***

Elysia leaned on the sofa, as she waited blankly for Cassian.

She was eager to run out immediately.

‘It would be much better than moving alone.’

Can she get help like this again?

No matter if it’s Cassian, dangerous things would be the same. She would never refuse, so she thanked him, but she was feeling complicated.

Before long, Cassian, who was dressed in a black robe, returned to the room.

If he had been leading the subjugation team, he would have been wearing the knight’s uniform, but it was simply because this is not a formal job.

A shirt was seen inside the robe.

“You have to change into this one. It’s going to be hard to withstand the Jericho Mountains.”

He handed Elysia a white robe.

“Thank you.”

The white robe, similar to the robe Elysia had worn to the tower, had nothing but a soft fur hat and a small gemstone embedded in the button.

‘What kind of robe has a gemstone...’

She wasn’t surprised as he was the person who gave the Guardian’s Eyes as his first gift.

However, the more she looked at his spendings, the more suspicious she was that he and his father are from the same family.

The magic of cleanliness and cold weather was hung on the magic stone.

Elysia looked at him, changing to what Cassian had given her.

What is it?

Her gaze sent a look of ‘what’s wrong’ to Cassian.

“Nothing.”

Cassian was also wearing a robe, which looked almost the same as hers, except that it was oddly black and his hat had no fur.

He seemed to just have noticed now that his and Elysia’s were similar.

‘Yes sir. I will prepare it so that you will like it.’

It was done by his aide, Lloyd. He was worried about Elysia, who was joining the subjugation for the first time, so he told Lloyd to order another one.

Elysia smiled. It was funny that Cassian prepared something like this.

Cassian muttered a little.

“Hoo, Lloyd.”
