The Blond Male Lead is Too Much - Chapter 157
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
I felt a surge of emotion as I heard the voice that held me tightly, as if I was in danger, like a raft being tossed about by a storm.
Carl, you idiot.
The more you act like this, the harder it becomes for me to let you go… … .
I felt like my heart, which I had worked so hard to build up, was crumbling in an instant. I bit my lips tightly and barely held back tears. Carl held my face like that and begged me.
“Shailene, tell me what you’re afraid of. If you don’t tell me, I won’t know.”
The sword that spoke like that looked as if it was about to cry as I did, and my heart thumped as I met its gleaming red eyes.
“If I really mean something to you, tell me. What are you so afraid of?”
“I… I’m scared of leaving you.”
Finally, I closed my eyes tightly and confessed the truth.
Because I realized that whether I tell the truth or lie and reject, it doesn’t make much of a difference in hurting someone.
In that case, it might be better to be honest. Rather than regretting it like the top star.
“Why are you leaving me?”
“… …Because I’m not the real Shailene.”
“Then? Who are you, really?”
I blinked once and tears fell down. Carl wiped my tears away and asked.
It must have been a shocking and embarrassing story for him, but Carl tried to calm me down and slowly figure out the facts.
Without doubting my words or calling me crazy.
“A person who lives in another world.”
I forced myself to suppress my irregular, shaky breathing and answered in a trembling voice.
“One day, I suddenly entered Shailene’s body. It happened before I first met you. This place is like a fairy tale to me, and I have to find a prince to return to my original world.”
“Was the prince by any chance blond?”
The quick-witted knife made a sharp cut.
“……that’s right.”
I admitted it obediently and said, clenching my fists.
“But now, I want to see a happy ending not just with the chosen prince, but with the person I like. Then I can go back.”
Even if you are cruel, you cannot be this cruel. When you truly love someone and your heart connects, an eternal separation will come.
I lifted my tear-stained eyes and looked at the knife.
“Do you even know what this means?”
“……okay.”
Karl made a complicated face as he gently wiped the area under my eyes with his thumb so as not to hurt them.
My head seemed to be filled with all sorts of thoughts as I suddenly learned the truth.
I secretly grabbed the hem of his clothes, even though he didn’t seem to question what I was saying at all.
“Do you believe everything I say…?”
“uh.”
“why?”
“Because it’s you. If you can’t even trust the person you love, there’s nothing in the world you can trust.”
Carl, who had a faint smile like the wind had let out, soon began to think seriously.
“But then, can I not call you Shailene?”
“No, call me Shailene. On the other hand, I am also Shailene.”
Shailene’s memories were so ingrained in me that my true identity was somewhat ambiguous.
It’s neither real nor fake.
But as long as the mission continued, I could not become completely real.
“Then Shailene, do you really want to go back to your original world?”
I was momentarily speechless at Carl’s random question.
In the past, I would have said yes without hesitation, but now I’m not sure.
Even if I don’t have 5 billion in the real world, I have plenty of money now, a new family, and most importantly, the person I love is here.
But that doesn’t mean I can readily choose to remain in this world.
Everything I have accomplished as myself exists in the original world.
“… … I don’t know.”
When I finally confessed my honest feelings, Carl lightly ruffled my hair.
“Then, I guess the first priority is to make up your mind. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear your answer today, so think carefully and decide.”
I nodded at the considerate words and then asked.
“Carl, what would you like me to do?”

“I will just respect your will. I will follow whatever decision you make.”
He spoke with a calm expression as if he was sincere, but soon he smiled playfully.
“Isn’t that the quality of a servant?”
“… … Really, you still haven’t forgotten?”
“My master is so eccentric that I have to try to forget him to be able to forget him.”
Carl, who had pressed my cheek hard and let go of my face, added softly.
“I will never forget it for the rest of my life.”
“……so do i.”
How often in life do you get a servant as sharp as a knife?
Even if I were to return to my original world, I would never forget the sword.

Underground of the central temple.
Morphina bit the waiters and went down alone.
After wandering through a maze of complex corridors, we arrived at a prison cell blocked by thick iron bars.
Inside, Raviello, with his shining, platinum-blond hair down, sat quietly with his back straight.
“Raviello.”
At Morphina’s call, he slowly opened his closed eyes.
Her purple eyes, just like hers, sparkled with a cold glare.
“You’ve developed good eyes.”
Morphina smiled with satisfaction. The look of her struggling to escape from here just a moment ago was nowhere to be seen.
‘It was better that I let it go then.’
I had let myself run away to face reality with the conviction that I would never be able to escape.
Then, I stopped by Duke Diat’s residence, and after hearing what had happened, I returned on my own feet and began to practice in earnest.
The result was the black power currently surging around Raviello.
“He told me that if I become the greatest being on earth, I can have everything in the world in my hands.”
“Yes, son.”
Morphina held the iron bars and whispered in a voice as deep as a snake.
“You deserve it.”
“Can I have what I want, even if it’s a person?”
“That is only natural. If you accept Him, you will have everything on earth at your feet.”
“great.”
The corners of Raviello’s mouth formed a strange curve as he got the answer he wanted.
After his elopement with Shailene went down the drain, he realized one thing.
‘You won’t come to me on your own two feet like you did when you were little.’
In that case, we have to make them come even if it’s forced.
If I had been willing to back down because of rejection, I wouldn’t have gone through the trouble of escaping here and going to Shailene.
I would have gone somewhere alone.
But Raviello wanted someone to be by his side more than freedom.
I needed someone who would love me no matter what happened.
Born as the illegitimate child of a high priest and an emperor, and growing up lonely and neglected, he had to hide himself, so his wishes were truly humble.
But why is it so difficult to achieve?
“I will receive Him into my body, and I will have everything.”
Raviello declared with a smile gone from his face. At this, Morphina smiled broadly.
“I finally feel the reward of giving birth to you, Raviello.”
There was only one reason why she, who had never been greedy for a family in her entire life, gave birth to Raviello.
To make a vessel that will fulfill a long-held wish with my own hands.
For Morphina, maternal love and familial love were emotions that did not exist.
As a common priestess, she had long ago joined the heresy and sworn allegiance to it, and what was important to her was the ultimate goal pursued by all Ludenians.
Ludwald descends and rules this world.
There was nothing Morphina wouldn’t do for him. She spoke refreshingly, hiding the truth that Raviello didn’t know under her tongue.
“Your body and mind are ready, so I must also perform the ceremony.”
The summoning ritual of the great demon Rudwald.
In the temple’s basement, covered in thick darkness, the two looked at each other and smiled.
It is so vicious and wicked that it is hard to believe that they are the High Priest and the High Priest who are imbued with holy light.
