âShasha, if you do this, you canât go out for a walk.â
Of course, Sihael didnât even listen to me.
He continued to chew the bones he had stolen from me yesterday.
Ugh! I donât know. If it doesnât work, Iâll lock him up, raise him and then send him to the female lead in a month.
No, it definitely needs to be after a month.
âShall I start looking for her from now onâ¦â
I got up from the sofa.
My head felt muddled, so I decided to go out for a walk.
When I opened the door after taking my coat, the servant who brought the meat looked surprised and started to tremble.
âUh, My Lady, Shashaâs lunch is ready⦠Where are you going?â
âWalk. You give it to him today.â
âM-Me?â
I felt my anger rising. What was so good about that son of a bitch that he got to have a meal? Heâs a troublesome little bastard!
Sihael didnât even look at me in spite of my glaring eyes.
âBe careful not to get bitten.â
After leaving the trembling servant and Marina behind, I stepped out and walked along the trail all by myself.
âWhere can I find the female leadâ¦â
It would only be a month when Lilliana would come to the North. Because of my limited knowledge, I did not know where she was prior to her arrival. She had a great talent for purification and wandered for place to place, looking for people who needed her abilities.
As a result, she never stayed in one place.
âShould I hire someone to find her? But can I really find her by doing this?â
The probability of finding Lilliana was very small since she was very good at hiding and running away.
In no time, I finished three laps around the trail.
âKyaaaa!
âArgggh!â
âS-Save me!â
I heard a piercing scream, before hearing something break inside the mansion.
âWhat was that?â
A chill crept up my feet.
âIt canât be that, right?â
As I approached the main gate, the screams grew louder. Along with it, there were cries of a beast.
Crash!
âArgggh!â
âStop it!â
As servants rushed through the ajar door, they fell down as Sihael stepped on them, revealing his majestic presence.
âHowâ¦â
How the hell did he get out of the cage?
âGrrrrrrrrr.â
His bright golden eyes that I complimented for being pretty until yesterday watched me warily.
At that moment I realized.
We had never gotten close.
Iâve been trying so hard, but I was still a piece of meat to him.
âGrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.â
At first, I saw Marina and Lanoa chase after Sihael. Then, servants and knights surrounded me.
I tried to stop Sihael, but he ran at me without even looking at the people around me.
âMy Lady!â
âRosetta!â
I could hear people calling me from afar.
I knew I should avoid him, but my body was as stiff as a stone and didnât even budge.
Oh, what should I do? I should avoid himâ¦
My body didnât move because of the pressure I felt on the day I first saw Sihael.
Sihael, who was just a short distance away from me, opened his mouth.
Oh, I donât know! I closed my eyes tightly and swung my fist.
âShasha, stop!â
Punch! I gave him a heavy blow.
âAaugh!â
Sihael shuddered and stepped back. He staggered and shook his head to see how much the blow affected him.
After belatedly figuring out the situation, I closed my mouth and looked at my fist in surprise.
This was crazy! Was I that f*cking strong?

Now that weâre at this point, letâs talk about Rosettaâs hidden abilities.
As a child of the Katzel family, Rosetta learned martial arts from an early age and came across many kinds of weapons. She could easily handle most basic swords, bows, guns, and even maces. Not only that, but her innate sense of combat was as good as her successor, Leonard.
Her immense power was only a small part of her genius. Because of this, her family had high expectations for her. Her personality was as bad as being stuck in a trashcan, but because of her abilities, she was considered a genius that came once every 100 years.
