“I hear the monster lord is coming to this ball?”
“What? Is that true?”
These rumours usually do not go wrong.
In the empire, “monster lord” refers to one person.
It was the owner of the northern Halstead castle, where demons roam.
He wasn’t good at socializing, but said he was going to attend this prom to get the information he needed to hunt the demons.
“You say that the face behind the mask is ugly?”
“Even demons will be afraid!”
Lord Halstead’s monster-like appearance has already become a lively topic.
Some, meanwhile, paid more attention to his wife.
“Unfortunately! I had to marry a monster politically on behalf of my cousins at a young age! Even though they’re nominal couples….”
*(Nominal means ‘top’. So their the top couple.)*
“Anyway, is the young wife actually really that good? She beaten the demons in the north and had already collected a fortune.
“What a waste to such a monster!”
“that’s right!”
“Tempting if you have an idea. It won’t be difficult. I’ve been stuck in a secluded castle, watching the monster! How nice would a nobleman like us look?”
(Confusing At first so lemme explain…The Noblemen believe that since the ‘lord Monster’ has had multiple achievements also including his wife being talented, it would make the other noblemen seem heroic also.)
The aristocratic men of the social world chattered cheerfully.
Some men didn’t end up with nothing talking mouths. Some were actually going to take action.
Among them was Count Val Dane.
He has enjoyed life-long preferential treatment thanks to his handsome face, which is one of the best. He was very confident in his appearance.
The day of the ball…
Count Val Dane handed the money to the servant.
“Let’s meet her as if its like a coincidence.”
This servant was an expert in such a thing. It could face the emperor like a coincidence If he was given some money.
In the middle of the classic rose garden, Count Val Dane was able to confront her very naturally.
“Oh! How are you?”
Perfect manners. Clear speech. Attractive gesture.
Any woman who spoke to him would become a prisoner.
But what is this?
Nothing seemed to work for this red-haired lord’s wife.
She stared at Count Val Dane with her green eyes and immediately turned her attention.
Even if he said this and that, she just answered without sincerity. She seemed not to be impressed by his wonderful appearance praised by everyone.
Count Val Dane cried out after losing his composure.
“Why do you keep looking elsewhere? Yes? Why the hell?”
She sighed small. said it with a grain of salt.
“I’m sorry, but you’re so ugly.”
“What?”
“Really. Your features are too good to be oily. It’s like a deep-sea fish that just came up from the sea. “
“…..”
“I’m sorry. I guess my standards have gotten too high because of my husband’s face.”
And then she turned round.
“Excuse me. I have some separation anxiety.”
She walked away quickly for someone to catch her.
With his mouth wide open, a dazzling blonde-haired man was left abandoned.
Halstead’s wife, Leticia, hastened back to the banquet hall.
Her husband was in the crowd. He just stood still and caught her eye.
‘I just saw an ugly man, and I felt more and more like my husband was cleaning my eyes.’
Others were wrapping their husbands around to see if they wanted to enjoy the effect of purifying their eyes. There was a lot of buzz all over.
Leticia muttered with a happy mood.
“My husband’s making a fuss about it. Yes!”
“Yes, it’s a mess like this.”
“Of course. The men here weren’t even able to compare.”
(Meaning: Aren’t able to compare against Lord Halstead beauty~)
“Yes, no one can beat your husband’s extraordinary appearance. “
“What should I do? If we all fall in love with my husband?”
“You’re such a worry-maker.”
“Look at that! Everyone is really approaching!”
“We’re testing your courage.”
“…….”
Leticia was alert.
The servant’s words hit the mark.
Come to think of it, her husband, Erden, was nothing but a monster to others. The excitement of coming to a strange place made me forget the fact for a moment.
‘You have to save him!’
Leticia came over quickly.
Erden, who was receiving the attention of all people, saw her.
In the eyes of others, his mask will only look expressionless.
But Leticia is now used to it, so she quickly read the feelings beyond.
He seemed to be pleased to meet his helper.
“Madame, you’re back! Have you collected everything you need?”
“of course.”
Leticia held out her gloved hand elegantly.
Erden took the hand slightly. Escorted with perfect manners and left the banquet hall.
Leaving those who have not yet been curious, they escaped and climbed up the wagon (carriage).
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
“Erden, I didn’t know those people were interested in us. You must have had a very difficult time alone.”
“Ah.”
Erden, opposite the wagon seat, looked then shrugged.
“I didn’t know we’d get this much attention. You must have been very embarrassed to have to come with your monster husband. ”
(ofc not my beautiful hubby ♥️)
Leticia was silent for a moment.
Erden’s figure came to my eyes.
I saw some women scanning through his physique at the banquet hall earlier.
‘What if it wasn’t the monster’s face up there?’
It was a look of such imagination.
He was not as charismatic as other social men. Since his boyhood, he has been rolling on the battlefield and gradually building up his body through bloody battles. So it must have looked very different.
Otherwise, he had a unique and natural atmosphere.
No devil brought fear to him. He did not bow his head to anyone. He was so proud to be arrogant because he never forgotten his status as a lord of a castle.
But there was a moment when Erden was the only one who showed a different side of himself.
It was during the time when others would point fingers at Leticia and hurt her. Only then, there was a look of helplessness.
Now was the time.
Whenever this happened, Leticia was thrilled.
(Meaning: Leticia enjoyed seeing Erden upset because she enjoys being there for him…She not a f-cking sadist ya nasties)
‘Alas… .’
He clasped the hem of her dress, not knowing what to do.
‘In fact, you’re……’
I suppressed the words that reached the neck. I pinched my thigh and held it in.
You can’t say it.
I managed to swallow the words inside. Then I looked around.
Of course there was no one. This wasn’t a moving wagon.
“Well, it’s just the two of us now, so take off that cumbersome mask and make yourself at home.”
At Leticia’s words, Erden raised his head.
“Can I?”
He asked back politely and carefully.
Erden never tried to show his face beyond the mask.
But after a shocking encounter after many twists and turns, he gave up to some extent.
Once Leticia persuaded him, he took off his mask with courage. She made he was at least comfortable.
Knowing that he was tempted, Leticia said eagerly.
“Of course! Of course! I’m adapted to your face now!”
It was a lie. You won’t be able to adapt even after the next 100 years. How can I adapt to such a great face….?
“Then.”
Erden put his hand slightly on the magic device that fixed the mask.
Leticia prepared her mind. The wagon was ready, too.
However… .
“No, I can’t do that cruel thing to my wife who was struggling for our castle today. I don’t want to show you this ugly face and make you more tired.”
Erden just dropped his hand.
Alas.
Leticia dropped her shoulders.
Rather, it relieves fatigue. It’s eye cleansing.
‘Why you can’t say that?’
My chest was tight and I bit my handkerchief.
I did.
This man known as a terrible monster was actually a great beauty.
But because of the curse that continued from generation to generation, he thought he had a very hideous appearance.
So Erden lived with his face tightly hidden in consideration of others.
Leticia also had a wedding ceremony, and it wasn’t long before she could see his face.
When she recalled the shock of that time, Leticia’s face turned red. Outside the dreary window, there was a hallucinating effect like petals flying.
(The rose petals flying remind me of some OHSHC stuff XD)
“Madam.”
Erden’s voice had been heard sweetly.
“I’m always grateful.I know this monster’s face must be disgusting and horrible, but he never shows it and does it so well.”
“Ay, what? Of course.”
“Since your arrival, our land has developed remarkably. The demons are tied to their wives. That’s amazing. No matter how much you think about it, you’re too good for me. That’s why I have to divorce you myself! “
Leticia, who was listening with a hazy face, was shocked.
What? Divorce?
There’s a new story that I’ve been trying to beat up demons for a while.
My heart pounded wildly. I had to struggle to keep my face from changing.
Erden said.
“Monster husband. Old, dreary castle. Bored demons.” I’ll divorce you quickly and lock you out of all that. But what do I do with this? Have you lost the divorce papers you had last time under the consent of a lawyer to make them absolutely favorable to you? I must have lost my mind while I was cutting down on the mana.”
“Is that so? Oh, my God!”
Leticia felt a guilty conscience.
The divorce papers fell to the ground. It happened to be in front of the fireplace. When the wind blew, it blew away and was engulfed in flames.
Leticia just watched the whole process.
“I’m sorry. I will meet with the lawyers soon and write a new divorce.”
“Slow down.”
Leticia replied.
Anyways, the new divorce papers will disappear silently.
Leticia had no intention of divorcing. ‘How could I ever meet another husband like this?’
Looking at the appearance of Erden sitting on the other side, Leticia became red again.
Leticia took something out from her pocket to calm her mind.
There was a flower picked from the classic garden earlier. I secretly picked each flower petal from my hand and hit a flower shop.
‘It works well with my husband, it doesn’t work, it does work, it doesn’t work… “It works! ”
(He likes me, he doesn’t like me game…It always involves flower petals )
As usual, good results came out. So far, not a single”It doesn’t work” thing has ever ended with a bad result. Because most flowers have odd petals.
You just have to avoid things like cosmos and forsythia with unlucky number of petals.
‘As expected, the flower shop is spiritual.’
Leticia looked out the window with a happy face.
When I thought of my relationship with Erden, I felt as if I had woven a long thread since I was a child.
I lost my parents to the demons of the north, and grew up being abused by my uncle and aunt, and then I was pushed to the very north where my parents had died.
At that time, Leticia was only twelve years old.
The day when everything started came to life.
“I heard that the Monster Lord was coming to the ball this year.” “What? Is that true?”
These rumors are often not contrary to each other. In the empire, the “Monster Lord” pointed to one person. He was the owner of the Northern Halstead castle, where demons roamed around.
The Lord was not good at socializing with other people. However, in order to get the essential information needed to hunt the demons, he decided to attend the ball.
“I heard that the face behind the mask is so ugly?” “Even demons will be afraid of him!”
The Halstead Lord’s monster-like face has already become a noisy topic. On the other hand, some people paid more attention to the Lord’s wife.
“Poor woman! At a young age, she had to marry a monster on
behalf of her older cousins! Although it’s a nominal couple……”
“Other than that, I heard that the young woman was resourceful! Didn’t she collect a whole property by seizing the demons in the North? Her beauty is also substantial.”
“A waste on such a monster!” “Right! Right!” “If you think about it, you can seduce her. It won’t be that difficult. Trapped in a secluded castle, living with an ugly monster! How would a nobleman, like us, look to her compared to her monster husband?”
The noblemen happily chattered. Some of the nobles did not end with just words as they even tried to act it out. Count Baldane was among them. His handsome face was the reason why he enjoyed his life all the time as he always got special treatment everywhere because of it. Moreover, his visuals are the root of his overflowing confidence.
The day of the ball.
Count Baldane gave money to his servant and made a request saying, “Come up with an excuse to make it seem like we met coincidentally”.
The servant was an expert in that field. If he was given money, he could even make the phantom spirits meet like a coincidence.
In the middle of a classic style rose garden, Count Baldane was able to confront the rumored woman naturally. “Oh! Hello?”
Perfect manner. Refined speech. Attractive gestures. Any woman who had a conversation with him can be captivated by him.
But what is this?
Nothing seemed to work on the Lord’s red-haired wife. She stared at Count Baldane with her green eyes and immediately turned her attention away. Even when he said this or that, she responded without sincerity.
It seemed that she had no emotions toward his great
appearance which was praised by all the people. Count Baldane eventually lost his composure and shouted.
“Why do you keep looking elsewhere? Huh? Just why?”
She gave a quiet sigh. As if determined, she responded.
“I’m sorry, but you are too ugly.” “Excuse me?” “Really. Your features are too….. It’s like a deep-sea fish that just came up from the bottom.’
“I’m sorry. After living with only seeing my husband’s face, my standards have become higher.”
Then she turned around.
“Please excuse me. I have abrupt anxiety.”
She quickly walked away in case someone would stall her longer. Leaving the shocked blonde man with his mouth open in a state of confusion.
The Halstead Lord’s wife, Leticia, hastened back to the banquet hall. In the crowd, her husband was there. Even when he was standing still, it caught her eyes. After seeing an ugly man, her husband seemed to purify her eyes even more. Others also surrounded her husband as if they also wanted to enjoy the eye cleansing effect. There were noises coming from all directions.
Leticia muttered with a warm feeling.
“Things are becoming lively because of my husband!”
The old servant who was passing by replied saying, “That’s right. Even if it is lively, it was never THIS lively.” “Of course. No one can surpass the extraordinary looks of the wealthy.”
“What should I do? What if everyone loves my husband?” “So you’re the type that keeps her problems to herself.” “Look at that! Really, everybody is sneakingly approaching him.” “He’s doing a courage test.”
“….”
Leticia was brought back to reality. The servant’s words hit the bone.
When she thought about it, her husband, Erden, was only considered a monster to others. Because of the excitement of being in a foreign place, she forgot about it for a moment.
I have to save him!
Leticia hurried to him. Erden, who was getting everyone’s attention, saw her. To the others, they could only see that he was emotionless with his mask. However, Leticia was used to this and could read his emotions through his mask.
As if he saw his savior, his face was welcoming.
“Wife, you came back! Did you obtain all the information you needed?” “Of course.”
Leticia reached out elegantly with her gloved hand. Erden gently took her hand and escorted her out of the banquet hall with perfect manners. They left the people who were still filled with curiosity and climbed into the carriage.
***
“Erden, I didn’t think there would be that many people who were interested in us. You must’ve had a difficult time alone.” “Oh.”
Across the carriage seat, Erden seemed to shrug.
“I also didn’t think we would get this much attention. My wife, you must’ve been very embarrassed to be accompanied by your ugly husband.”
Leticia was silent for a moment. Erden’s figure caught her eyes. She saw some women secretly skim his physique in the banquet hall. What if he didn’t have the face of a monster? It was as if they were thinking that.
He didn’t have a sports-trained body like the other noblemen. Ever since he was a boy, his body was one that has been rolled
around and struggled through the bloody battles. That was why it must’ve looked very different to them. Otherwise, he had a natural unique atmosphere. No devil brought fear to him. He didn’t bow his head to anyone. He never forgot his status as a castle Lord and he became arrogant and prideful because of that.
But there was a moment where Erden showed a different side of himself. It was when others bullied Leticia and tried to hurt her for having an ugly husband. It was the only time where he looked like he couldn’t do anything. This was like that the moment. At times like this, Leticia’s heart hurt felt a pang of pain in her chest.
Leticia didn’t know what to do and just squeezed the hem of her dress. Actually, you….. She suppressed the words that reached to her neck. She pinched her thighs to hold the words in. She shouldn’t say it. She barely swallowed the words into her heart. After that, she looked around her surroundings. Of course, there was no one. It was the inside of a running carriage.
“Excuse me, now that it’s only the two of us, you can take off that horrendous mask and be comfortable.”
At the words of Leticia, Erden muttered ‘ah’ and looked up.
“May I do that?” He asked politely and carefully. Erden never tried to show his face beyond the mask. But after a shocking encounter, in the end, he also gave up to some extent.
Sometimes Leticia would persuade him and give him the courage to take off his mask. It’s definitely more comfortable. Leticia put more effort, knowing he was tempted.
“Of course! Of course! I have adapted to your face now!”
That was a lie. Even after 100 years, she wouldn’t be able to familiarize herself with his face. How could you adapt to such an amazing face……?
“Well then.”
Erden put his hand slightly on the magic device that held his mask. Leticia began to prepare her heart and her eyes. She must watch out for his brightness. However……
“I can’t do this. I can’t do such a cruel thing to my wife who worked hard for our castle honor today. I don’t want to show you this ugly face and make you more tired.”
Erden just dropped his hand.
Leticia’s shoulders dropped. Rather his face relieves her fatigue. It was eye cleansing. Why can’t you say that! She bit her handkerchief because her chest tightened up. It was like this. The man who was known as a horrible monster was actually a great beauty.
But because of the cure that has been passed through the family, he thought he had a repulsive appearance. Because he was so caring for others, he hid his face. Leticia first saw his face after a long time the wedding ceremony had ended. When she was reminiscing about that day’s shock, Leticia smiled shyly. Outside the bleak window, she saw a hallucination as if petals were falling.
“Wife.”
Erden’s sweet voice reached her.
“I am always grateful for you. This monster-like face must be disgusting and terrible, but you didn’t let it show on your face and took it in greatly.”
“Of course.”
“Since your arrival, our land has developed remarkably. The demons are tied to their wives. That’s amazing. No matter how much you think about it, you’re too good for me. That’s why I have to divorce you myself!”
Leticia, who was listening with a hazy face, was shocked. What? Divorce? The story that has been told many times when pummeling demons has come back. Her heart was shaking. She did her best to not let him notice the change in her face. Erden then said, “Monster husband. Old and gloomy castle. Tiring demons. We can get a divorce quickly so you can escape all of this. But what do we do? I lost the divorce papers that I made with the help of a lawyer.”
“Really? What a shame!”
Leticia felt remorse for that paper. Those papers fell to the floor. But of course, the paper landed in front of the fireplace. The wind blew and the paper was engulfed in flames. Leticia just watched the whole process silently.
“I’m sorry. I will meet with the lawyer to make the new divorce papers.”
“Please do so slowly.” Leticia replied. Either way, the new divorce papers would also disappear without a sound.
Leticia didn’t have any thought of divorcing him. Where could she ever meet a husband like this again? As she looked at the sitting Erden across from her, her ears became red. To calm her mind, Leticia reached for her pocket. Inside it was a flower from the classic garden that she picked. She secretly picked the petals one by one until it hit the bud.
My husband and I will go well, not well, well, not well……well!
As always, a good result came out. To that day, she never received a ‘not well in the end. It was because most flowers had an odd number of petals. The annoying flowers that had even petals like cosmos and forsythia were to be avoided.
The petal trick is always correct.
With a happy face, Leticia looked outside the window.
Whenever she thinks about her destiny with Erden, it was as if she’s been intertwining long and long threads ever since she was a child. The beginning was like that. The demons in the north lost their parents and grew up with cruel uncles and aunts, when the parents had died they returned to the same northern area. That was when Leticia was twelve. The day when everything started was still vivid to her.
In a place that is always noisy and full of smoke, two unsuitable guests went to the office of the empire’s first adventure guild,
The guildmaster was busy reading the documents they brought. In the meantime, Leticia couldn’t take her eyes off of a picture on the wall. It was a record detailing the appearance of people who were being burned. If my secret gets exposed, I will end up like them. Leticia was unable to escape from that thought. If so, then I’ll stab the executioner’s eyes and run away. Leticia had no intention of getting played like that.
She prepared herself for that moment and practiced the technique of stabbing one’s eyes. Among her twelve-year-old peers, she was in the top three for the empire. While she was still thinking, the guild master raised his head. He was amazed that the little girl noticed the painting. He hurriedly brought up the topic while scraping the paper.
“So this child is……?” “My niece. She is the only daughter of my brother who passed away.”
Count Grey replied as if he had been waiting for that question.
“I see.”
There was a reason why the guild master had to reconfirm it even when he knew. Bright red hair. Pale face. Dark green shaded eyes. A body that was too small to be considered to be twelve. Faded black dress…… The girl did not look related to the count because of their contrast in clothes.
They looked more like a master and a young servant. As if Count Grey knew what the guild master was thinking, he said,
“My niece is still in the state of mourning for her parents. As written in the papers, my brother and his wife died ten years ago by the demons in the North. He was on a business road and accidentally set foot in the devil’s land, Pandemonia.”
“So you’re looking for an artifact now, right?”.
“That is right. The proof of ownership of our family’s business that I invested in is buried somewhere.”
“But isn’t it your brother’s personal property rather than your family’s property?
“Either way, my niece, who I am taking care of, is their legitimate heir. The adventurers who returned today should have proof within the items that they have discovered.”
“Hm…..
The guildmaster handed over the list with a grungy face. Count Grey looked through the list carefully. However, it was the same this time too. There was no proof of ownership, much less anything similar to it. The guildmaster said this,
“I think it would be better if you didn’t hold any hopes. It’s hard to leave a piece of paper in such a wasteland. Of course, you may not know.”
“I also have been there.”
Count Grey replied back. For the first time, the guildmaster seemed surprised.
“An aristocrat like you? What did you do to come back alive? I am genuinely curious.”
Instead of answering, he showed an annoyed expression. He grabbed Leticia, who was standing blankly, and pulled her out. As soon as he reached a place where there were no people, he screamed.
“It’s still nothing! What are your parents doing in heaven? If we can’t find the proof, you are going to have to pay it all back.”
“Ha…..”
“Why are you sighing like that? Just like an old lady! It’s like you’ve aged fifty years.”
Leticia heard that and was surprised.
“N-No. I’m only twelve years old.”
She replied quickly and shut her mouth.
Her heart was pounding like it had been hammered on.
***
In the carriage, Leticia glanced at her uncle. “I didn’t get caught, did I?’ Count Grey was not a very wise person. However, he had shockingly good instincts and was perceptive.
What he said had unintentionally hit the heart. Leticia was not fifty years old. But one could say she lived many years, because she still had memories of her previous life. That was Leticia’s secret. Her reincarnation was awakened when she was five years old. It was when her two older cousins were joking around, which resulted in her slipping and hitting her head hard in the bathroom.
-AH!
Whilst in shock, many memories suddenly emerged into her. It was the memories of another life from another world. Even if it was called a reincarnation, the memories she gained showed a normal life. Born into a poor family, all she did was study and study until she died as a ‘job-ready student.’ There was a fire in Gosiwon.
‘How sad.’
Whenever she thought of her past life, she was always sad. After suffering from that life, she was reborn again, but lost her parents when she was a baby. She had no child support and lived being treated coldly by her uncle’s family. When she thought of that, she became even sadder. However, this was not the time to be remorsing. She needed to get her head straight. In this world, those who were reincarnated or knew about the future were considered a witch.
If they found out she was reincarnated, there was no possibility that she would live safely.
‘I have no luck.’
Leticia looked out the window and sighed. The remaining evening routine was drawn quite obviously. She must go back to the attic in her Uncle’s house and withstand the cold to change clothes. Next, she will be called to the library where she will get scolded by her Aunt. Then, the Aunt will accidentally forget her dinner in the kitchen and leave Leticia starving.
As usual, she would spend an evening full of small misfortunes. At that moment, she thought of that. When the carriage arrived at the count’s home, Leticia ran quickly inside the house to avoid her Aunt’s nagging, but the atmosphere was quite weird. The hall was very cluttered, as if a war had swept through.
The Countess, who only showed her perfect nature, was on the floor, collapsed. Her two cousins were next to her, crying and making a fuss. Count Grey got alarmed at the sight.
“Why is everyone like this? What is going on?” “You! What is this!”
The Countess threw a black envelope with a letter inside to Count Grey.
When the count opened it and read it, his face went pale immediately.
Why are they acting like this? As she peeked over Count Grey’s shoulder, she saw the letter was from a Northern manor called the Halstead Castle. Was it related to her parents who passed away? That wasn’t the case because the content of the letter was related to her uncle.
Ten years ago, Uncle Allister made a promise with Halstead’s lord, “The Black Gentleman.’ In return of saving him from the devil’s land……
Leticia’s eyes widened.
‘My cousin, as the monster’s bride?’
Leticia’s aunt was almost sobbing.
“What kind of nonsense is this! You told me that you made it out of the North with your own strength!”
“That-That was…… If the situation is grim, it’s okay to accept other people’s help! Then would you rather want me to get killed there?”
“That would’ve been better! Do you even know who this ‘Black Gentleman’ is? There’s no way a normal human could survive in the demon’s land! They say that the Halstead’s lord is a terrible monster! Anyone who’s been to the North would know!” “Oh my gosh. How could I give my jewel-like-daughters away to a monster like him……”
“Oh, that’s right! We can break the promise no matter what! What can money not do in this world!”
The count was speaking loudly. To this day, they only solved problems like that. But this was different. The church gave them the answer.
The priests also rejected a large amount of donations and sent out the Count and his wife. Just to figure out the solution on how to break the marriage, the church’s pigeons died vomiting blood. The Count was frightened.
“Now what do I do?”
The family didn’t know what to do and gathered in an area as they had planned. The area had a shrine.
‘No way?
Leticia was frightened. Her Uncle, Aunt, and cousins were all thinking of the same idea. They didn’t say anything but she could tell by their gazes.
They wanted to send Leticia as the monster’s bride.
“There’s no way!’
The one who promised to send their daughter was her Uncle, not her dad. She wanted to run away from this terrible fate. On that night, Leticia packed her stuff and attempted to leave the
house. But before she could even reach the corridors, her Uncle and Aunt blocked her way, as if they predicted she would run.
Leticia spoke with a stuttering voice.
“I’m only twelve years old.”
The aunt spoke coldly.
“You are a noble, you know? Contract marriages don’t care about age. Even a baby that was just born can go into a contract marriage. The other side can handle the rest.”
“But my parents died in the North. I wouldn’t care about any other place, but I never want to go there. Even more, to become the wife of such a terrible monster……”
“Shut up!”
The aunt interrupted Leticia.
“For our daughters, we would do anything for them. It would be best for you to keep that in mind and go to the North quietly. If you can’t fulfill their roles properly…..” They took out a tiny key, as if they wanted her to see it. It was the key for the family cemetery.
“Your parents will fall to hell.”
Leticia was horrified. With a pale complexion, she turned to stare at her Uncle. However, he hid behind her aunt and pretended not to know anything. He was letting his wife do all the dirty work on threatening his niece and was just in the background. That was more evil. Desecrating the dead was an act of rebellion. However with them, they would find a way to remain comfortable while doing it.
It seemed like they could hurt her parent’s graves whenever they wanted to.
No. Please don’t do that……’
Leticia collapsed on the spot, helplessly.
