respect, the credibility is zero.’

What was the truth.

‘The holy relic that Johann gave was still in the drawer, and he knew my secret.’

Not only that, he had been open, revealing his own secrets.

But Rixus…

‘The man who tore me to pieces seven times…’

‘…Even when he saw the blue roses on my shoulder, he embraced me instead.’

‘I can’t understand the pain I feel that breaks my heart every time I see him.’

Berylia slowly closed her eyes and reopened them.

Then she looked at him with eyes that were more calm than confused.

“Archduke Marquis, if there was even a little bit of falsehood in today’s explanation…”

“….…”

“Pray every day that I don’t get my memories back.”

Johann’s eyes darkened.

“The day I regain my memories.”

His heart became cold.

“It will not be the flames in the square that will kill you, but me, whom you insulted.”

At the warning that pierced his chest, Johann quietly bowed his head.

Then he knelt down in front of her and kissed the back of her hand.

“My queen, so that you can regain your memories… so that you can trust ‘us’.”

“….…”

“Please see what kind of effort I’m making.”

Swssh, Berylia pulled her hand away.

But she already had a ring on her finger.
It was a ring with a bright purple amethyst.

It was very beautiful.
Above all, it fit her finger very well.

It was a choice befitting a man with a good sense of aesthetics.
Just like Johann.

Johann placed his hand on his chest and smiled with bloody, yet affectionate eyes.

“That’s what I prepared to give as a token of love before you lost your memories.”

It was then that Berylia frowned and was about to say something about the ring.

Taktak— There was a knock on the door, and it sounded like it was a little urgent.

“Who is it.”

Laura’s voice came.

“I have something to tell you, Your Majesty.”

Laura, after asking for permission, hurriedly came in and whispered the news quietly.

‘Rixus woke up?’

The beating of Berylia’s heart began to quicken.

“Then go away, Archduke.”

“…Suddenly? Already? A little more.”

Berylia just left, leaving the very sad-looking Johann.

He whispered as he touched his lips with his long fingers.

“At any rate… you’re so cool.
Pretty.”

[It’s a big deal, a big deal! How dare you lie like that!]

“Noisy.”

[Your powers aren’t perfect yet, so maybe she’ll get her memories back soon!]

Pak pak, the crow flapped its wings and rebuked Johann.

As soon as he entered his mansion, Johann quickly sat down on a chair and pressed his chin.

Then he bit the cork of the wine bottle with his white teeth and pulled it out lightly.

Tung, the cork was thrown onto the floor.

A sweet scent spreaded.

“When she gets her memories back…”

“…….”

“The ‘gate’ must already be open.
By then, she might already have my child in her womb.”

Finding out after everything was over.

What good was it?

After all, her soul would already be tightly bound to him.

Johann squeezed the crown on his head with the naked wine bottle.
Dark eyes gleamed.

“….…”

She would hate him for the rest of her life, but she wouldn’t be able to leave him.

She couldn’t help but cry, however in the end, she would have no choice but to let him hold her in his arms.
As he would be the only one she could lean on.

Thinking about that day made him really happy.

[Crazy! Crazy!]

“…….”

[She didn’t even believe it at all! That woman!]

At Toulouse’s words akin to scattering ashes, Johann smiled leisurely.
(PR/N: ‘sprinkling the ashes’ is an act of disturbing and ruining the atmosphere.)

“Anyway, it’s enough to confuse her today.
That’s how it starts.”

Slowly, he would be closer to her.

Like when one tried to get closer to a cat by giving it a small prey, one would keep standing out.

He would dig into her chaotic crevices and devour her completely.

His plan was perfect.

[…So, what was that ring? What function does it have?]

Johann shrugged, his black eyes shining.

“Nothing.”

[Eh?!]

“I just wanted to give it to her.
I wanted to give the woman I love an accessory.”

How pretty would she be if she decorated her body with the things he gave her?

Johann laughed at his pretty imagination.

“The future is important.”

His eyes darkened.

“Rixus found her first and married her, but…”

Now it was different.

“From now on, the person who has luck with her memories first will have her.”

[Are you sure you can win?]

“Of course.”

Johann put his mouth on the spout of the wine bottle and took a sip and said,

“Rixus will approach her carefully and slowly, as she has lost her memories, but….”

[Then you?]

“I don’t care how.
I’m going to get her by doing any dirty, sleazy, sly and evil thing.”

The crow shook its three heads and replied,

[It’s normal to go slowly and carefully like the Crown Prince…]

“I can’t afford it.”

Rejecting the advice, Johann leaned forward, dropping himself off the backrest.

His black eyes… shone dangerously.

“I’m crazy about her.”
