Someone: and he came with his wife?

Someone: his wife? he's married?

Someone: you didn't know?

Someone: she's quite a beauty, with brains to match Someone: she's increased their fortune like a snowball racing down a mountain in the dead of winter

Someone: I hear they've been hunting many devils lately in the north

Someone: Such a wise young lady for that monstrous guy? What a shame

Someone: poor thing...

Someone: but... I bet it'd be really easy to seduce her Someone: living with such a hideous man, it wouldn't be hard to win her heart...

Someone: Heh~ looks like you might be a little late

Someone: Good evening, madam~

Letitia

Someone: Count Baldein Is Making His Move. there're So Many Ladies Who've Been Courting Him.

Count Baldein: a Pleasure To Meet You. I'm Count Baldein.

Count Baldein: ** Courting country girl like her? a piece of cake **

Count Baldein: you looked so beautiful, standing there alone, Count Baldein: that I just had to introduce myself...

Letitia

*Cold~*

Count Baldein: ?

Letitia

Count Baldein: !!

Count Baldein: **D-don't panic...!** Count Baldein: **maybe she's shy...**

Count Baldein: I-It's a wonderful evening, isn't it? Count Baldein: but this fresh evening air Count Baldein: and the radiant lights of the hall wouldn't mean a thing without y--

Letitia

Yeah... I guess so...

Count Baldein: **she didn't even hear me out!** Count Baldein: **W-Why isn't anything working?** Count Baldein: **I've NEVER failed!**

Letitia

*fidget* *fidget*

Count Baldein: what's wrong, madam?

Count Baldein: are you not felling well, or...

Count Baldein: *gasp* **wait... could it be...?**

Count Baldein: if you're being threatened by the monster lord...

Count Baldein: or being forced to live in the castle With him Count Baldein: please, madam...

Count Baldein: *serious* send me a secret signal with a blink...!

Letitia

*peek*

Count Baldein: **she turned to me**

Count Baldein: **to notify me that she's in danger...!**

Letitia

I'm sorry, but

Letitia

you are too ugly...

Count Baldein: **!!**

Count Baldein: ...what?

Count Baldein: I'm ugly?!

Count Baldein: how???

Letitia

I don't wish to be rude to someone I've only met once,

Letitia

but you kept pushing your face into mine,

Letitia

and your features are so... misplaced

Letitia

you look like some horrible deep-sea creature.

Count Baldein: *shocked*

Count Baldein: ** w-what the hell did she just say...?!**

Letitia

and just so you're aware, people blink 15 thousand times a day.

Letitia

the wisdom of your choice of a secret signal makes me question your intelligence...

Letitia

now, if you'll excuse me

Letitia

**where is he...?** *looking for Erden*

Letitia

**oh!**

Letitia

Erden!

Erden

Letitia!

Letitia

*approaching Erden*

Erden

are you done with the research?

Letitia

more or less...!

Someone: *murmur*

Someone: *whisper*

Someone: *murmur*

Erden

shall we go then?

*they go from there*

*clunk* *clunk*

Author

just imagine if the clunk was the sound of a horse carriage

Erden

I got you in trouble there, didn't I?

Letitia

what?

Erden

next time we're invited, please go without me

Letitia

...

Erden

I attract too much attention

Erden

when I hear people say that you're 'married to a monster', it really upset me

Letitia

*clench*

Letitia

please don't say that, Erden

Letitia

I couldn't care less what people say about you

Letitia

they just don't know who you really are

Letitia

it's a huge shame

Erden

letitia...

Letitia

*holding Erden's hand*

Letitia

it's just the two of us now

Letitia

take off your mask and make yourself comfortable

Erden

but... I'm too hideous under the mask...

Letitia

it's okay. I'm getting used to it

Erden

then...

Erden

*take off the mask*

Letitia

**but no... I'll never get used to it...**

Erden

ha...

Letitia

**to this beauty!!!**

Erden

*blissful~*

Erden

I'm so lucky to have a wife like you. I just... can't thank you enough

Letitia

for what?

Letitia

**I'm the lucky one**

Erden

you're too kind to such a hideous man like me...

Letitia

of course!

Letitia

I'm your wife, after all.

Erden

no, I don't deserve you. you're too good for me.

Erden

so...

Letitia

*so happy to see Erden's face~*

Erden

I should divorce you as soon as possible... for you sake

Erden

I'm so sorry...

Erden

I... I know I should've set you free sooner

Erden

I put together the divorce papers with the help of a lawyer, but I think I somehow...

Erden

lost them...

Letitia

*half-hearted* oh, what a shame

Letitia

**yes, because I burned them**

Letitia

*holding Erden's hand again*

Letitia

lawyers hardly ever come to the north where devils flourish.

Letitia

you need to go down south to meet one,

Letitia

but you're much too busy hunting devils, aren't you?

Erden

yes... so

Erden

it'll take even longer.

Erden

again, I am so sorry, letitia... I shouldn't keep you for do long in the north where your parents passed away.

Erden

I'm afraid it will worsen your grief...

Letitia

*firm* no need to rush!

Letitia

please take your time

Erden

Letitia...

Erden

*holding letitia's hand*

Erden

you are...

Erden

too good for me...

Letitia

*blush*

Erden

L-Letitia?

Letitia

**I need to spread more frightening rumors among the lawyers...**

Letitia

**who would divorce such a handsome husband?**

Letitia

**divorce is not a option**

Letitia

**NEVER!**

Author

So it's begin...
