Chapter 77

Beolde tore a piece of paper and wrote Dalia the address of her mansion. The address was the residence of the Duke of Mershain.

She contacted the head of the Mershain informing that she would now return home.

Dalia recognized this as one good deed.

There were 99 left now, Beolde was pleased.

“I will report to you whenever I do something good in the future, so just wait.”

“That……you know the standard for it to be called good deeds, right?”

“Don’t know. So I’ll just try it all. Something will work.”

Beolde shamelessly answered.

Even when Dalia looked at her again, her good-looking face shone brightly. It’s hard to believe that she’s in her 40s.

If she could, she wanted to tell her to keep up with her age. (*t/n: means Beolde’s mental age is not on par as her actual age.)

“Anyway, bye.”

Beolde asked Dalia to shake hands. Without thinking, she took the hand.

But at that moment.

Crack.

For a moment, Dalia thought her hand was broken. But the sound was not coming from there.

It was precisely the sound of the ring on her finger breaking.

“Huh?”

Beolde looked down at her hand with blank eyes.

“…..Nul, nullification……now?”

Dalia had goosebumps all over her body.

Beolde’s power can nullify all except for the ability of the transcendent.

Although the ring given by the Emperor to Dalia has his power, but, his ability as a transcendent was ‘the ability to read people’s emotions’.

In other words, the Emperor’s power in the ring was of a kind that could be nullified by Beolde.

When the Emperor’s power was released, Dalia’s ability was activated. Her power to purify the soul of the transcendents.

‘But it was okay when she hugged me earlier?’

That was when Cedric’s magic of changing hair and eye color was at stake.

Cedric’s ability was ‘multiple attribute magic’. Therefore, Beolde could not nullify it.

So it seemed that Beolde’s power did not reach the ring.

Beolde looked at her with a more shocked expression than when she knew how to lift the curse.

“Who are you?”

Meldon raised one eyebrow and looked at them alternately. He seemed to have noticed that the situation was strange.

‘No! I can’t ever get caught by Mr. Meldon!’

She can’t face the Emperor if both of them find out.

Dalia immediately fell into Beolde’s arms to stop her from talking.

“Goodbye, Lady Beolde! I’ll miss you!”

“Ye, yeah.”

Beolde awkwardly hugged her, glanced at Meldon then looked at Dalia in her arms.

Her eyes gleamed. She whispered into her Dalia’s ear.

“Yeah, I get it roughly. You have quite an amazing power.”

“……Yes.”

“Since I didn’t say anything about it, acknowledge it as one good deed.”

‘……Just how simple is this person?’

She nodded her head in a hurry.

Beolde hugged her, lingering for a while, and finally let her go.

It was like seeing a giant leopard clinging to a human.

“Please do it again next time.”

Leaving a meaningful remark, Beolde left in the carriage sent by the Mershain.

‘Fortunately, it went well.’

She was glad that Beolde was a simple person.

Now it was time for Dalia to return. Then Meldon put her coat around her shoulders as she was about to leave.

It felt heavy for some reason.

“Huh?”

Dalia looked back at Meldon. He smiled and greeted her.

“See you next time.”

‘Perhaps, did he notice?’

It felt ominous, but she nodded. Then she took Wayne’s hand and climbed into the carriage.

The carriage soon departed.

Dalia habitually leaned her back against the seat and flinched. It wasn’t because of the bruise on her back.

It was because there was a large, soft cushion on the back of the coat that Meldon had wrapped around her.

“…….”

Meldon didn’t notice. He was just being considerate of her.

‘I looked like a fool.’

She smiled bitterly. And she looked out the window with her back leaning comfortably against the seat.

12. The Second Ball

Dalia went to the Emperor the day after she met Beolde, sharing the now familiar hug.

As soon as he saw Beolde who just returned, and Dalia’s broken ring, he seemed to have noticed immediately what had happened.

“……It’s my fault. I didn’t expect that Miss Dalia would go to see Beolde.”

“I’m sorry.”

“No, Miss Dalia. Come here and eat something delicious.”

When the Emperor heard that Dalia likes desserts, he separately asked the imperial palace chef to set up a dessert tea set on one side of the office.

Dalia held the fork with tears in her eyes at his consideration.

“I don’t know what you did, but Miss Dalia did a very good job at keeping Beolde’s mouth shut. So I think you can rest assured. Strangely, Beolde seems to be stuck with Miss Dalia’s words.”

The Emperor created a new ring in the air and gave it to Dalia.

“It’s good that you got caught. It’s a new ring that excludes Beolde altogether. This will be able to protect Dalia without being affected by the Beolde. Instead, having contact with Beolde will not stop you from purifying her soul.”

Even then, she was glad that things didn’t go too seriously. Dalia breathed out a sigh of relief.

* * *

Wayne escorted Dalia until she arrived at the mansion.

He smiled as he dropped Dalia off at the mansion.

“This is really the end of my last mission.”

He looked a little sad.

Dalia felt grateful to him again.

“You’ve worked so hard so far.”

How could they find the fortune teller and meet Beolde without him?

With this, everything really came to an end.

There was a mishap in which Beolde knew Dalia’s ability, but rather, this might be a good excuse to bind her to this Empire.

Then all that’s left now was to help Meldon to become the Duke of Artus through Beolde?

Wayne faithfully helped Dalia until all this was successfully ended. Just because he belongs to the Imperial Palace and because of Cedric’s request…….

“It’s not hard.”

Wayne grinned.

“You wouldn’t think that way if you knew how much Sir Cedric paid me in exchange for helping you with this.”

“……Huh?”

For a moment, Dalia thought she had heard it wrong.

She looked up at Wayne, surprised by the completely unexpected remark.

Seeing the satisfaction in his eyes, it seemed that he had been taken care of without regret.

“Did, did you get paid?”

Wayne looked at Dalia as if she had said something unexpected.

“The only person we are loyal to is His Majesty the Emperor. Originally, we didn’t take requests from anyone else, but we received it since it was the Prince’s request and it was related to Miss.”

“…….”

“We should at least get paid for the mission. If we don’t, we will be disciplined by the imperial family.”

Dalia blamed herself for trying to get help from the Imperial Palace for free.

Moreover, since he was a member of the Imperial Palace, she did not think that the money would come out of anyone’s pocket.

However, looking at the situation, Cedric certainly seemed to have paid a huge amount of money on behalf of Dalia.

Did he say that another job will come after one job?

Her face went pale at the unexpected situation.

“Wh, what’s the matter?”

Wayne looked at Dalia in confusion. She quickly shook her head.

“No, it’s nothing. I, I see. You did well. Goodbye.”

She forced Wayne to leave because she was worried, and immediately wrote a letter to Cedric.
