Catch them all!”
There was fire everywhere. After a long period of time, the acrid smell of the fire went into Renna’s bedroom.
I covered my mouth and nose with a towel and stood by the window, coughing.
The people’s screams came from outside the flaming windows, but there was nothing Renna could do.
What happened to you…’
My mouth dried up as I waited nervously.
How much time has passed? Renna’s tightly shut bedroom door opened and her husband, Kaligo, came in. Even in this situation, as usual, his face was expressionless.
Renna, who stood by the window, hurriedly ran towards Kaligo.
“Kaligo! What the hell is going on!”
Whether he knew her nervousness or not, Kaligo put his hand in his pocket without saying anything.
He took a small necklace out of it and hung it around her neck, and called her name in a low voice.
“Renna.”
Her eyes grew bigger when she heard her name come out of his mouth.
It was the first time.
Instead of being called “you” or “ma’am”, he called me by my name. Maybe, that was the reason why his name sounded so unfamiliar to me.
Kaligo, who finished putting the necklace around Renna’s neck, held her and said.
“Don’t leave.”
Renna’s once shaking body now stiffened after hearing Kaligo say those words.
What? Don’t leave? Even in this situation?
During our five years of marriage, there wasn’t a moment where I escaped my duties as a Duchess. But, even when I’m about to die, he’s still telling me to stay in this mansion?
……Are you saying….I should die here?’
His orders, under the guise of a favor, still remained even when the world was in chaos.
She bit her lower lip gently, escaped from his arms, and asked.
“How about you?”
“Are you….coming back?”
To this room, where I am waiting? Are you coming back alive? Until then, can I stay alive?
No, do you even have the intention of saving me from this place?
I wanted to ask a lot of questions, but my voice was shaking tremendously. In the end, I decided to just close my mouth.
Instead of replying to her question, Kaligo stepped away from her.
“I’ll be back….. no matter what.”
Kaligo turned away and went out of the room without looking back.
After 5 years of being married, his back looked no different. No matter how many times I looked at it, it always looked cold.
And…
That was the last time I saw him alive.
“Find all the remnants!”
The knights of the Imperial Palace eventually reached the front of Renna’s room. It didn’t take long for the locked bedroom door to break because of the immense force of the knights.
Until then, I tried to remain calm.
Since he was the Duke of Edmund, who had a lot of enemies, she was worried this would happen someday.
