I Become The Wife of The Male Lead

Chapter 39: Heilon (2) (Unedited)

‘Red hair and golden eyes…’

 My head couldn’t work quickly because I was absent-minded until just now.
Anyway, I could try to remember it later.

Then the man looked down at me with a worried look.
“Are you okay?”

I nodded my head belatedly.
“Yes, I’m okay.
Also, I’m sorry.”

As I looked down slightly avoiding his eyes, I saw a tie pin with black jewel rolling around on the ground.
It seemed that the man dropped it because it just bumped into me. 

“It looked like it fell because of me.” As saying that, I reached out to take the tie pin.
However, as soon as my fingers lightly touched the surface of the jewel on the pin, the black color change to red in an instant.

“What is this..” While I hesitated in embarrassment, the man picked up the tie pin instead. 

The men made eye contact with me while smiling gracefully.
“It’s not a gem stone, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

“That..
is that a mana stone?” 

Manastone was a type of gem that mages sometimes used to contain their magical powers.
Usually, the mana stone was used by ordinary people who could use a little magic or magicians whose magic power was unstable to make them perform magic smoothly. 

“Yeah..
and seeing the reaction o this stone..
You must be a magician.”

I heard the mana stone was set to react to the magicians.
However, I’ve never used mana stone since I was good at controlling my mana.
So, this was the first time I saw it with my own eyes. 

I frowned lightly.
“It’s a skill that is shameful even to be called a magician.”

“You are very humble.
If the mana stone’s reaction was like this just a light touch, it wound’t be an ordinary skill.” The man slowly rolled the tie pin and said in an admiring tone.
“Beside, it’s such a bright color.”

Come to think of it, if I was not wrong with my memory, it was said that the clearer the color of the mana stone, the higher the magician’s mana power.

Suddenly, the man smiled.
It was a smile that anyone could agree it was an attractive smile, objectively. 

“You’re a talented person.
My name is Arendt Clovis.
If you don’t mind, is it okay if I ask your name?”

‘No, don’t ask!’

Seeing his face, I slowly backed away.
Soon as I heard him mention his name, I remembered who he was right away.
I tried to manage the hardened expression on my face and forcefully smiled. 

“Ce..
my name is Celine.” I accidentally faked it.
However, since he didn’t know who I was, I couldn’t just tell him my name.
I felt guilty towards Celine.
Ugh.

When he heard the name I said, Arrendt’s face lit up with a moment of wonder.
He must be feeling strange.
Judging by my appearance, he was sure I was a noblewoman, but I didn’t tell him the surname. 

Fortunately, he didn’t ask.

If you read this on other websites, it means it was stolen.

“It was an honor to meet you, Lady Celine.
I hope to have a chance to see you again.”

I grabbed the hem of my skirt and greeted him in an informal way.
“Yeah, me too..
It was an honor to meet Marquis Clovis.”

Then I turned around without hesitation and strode towards where Celine and the maid had spread her mat. 

I couldn’t believe I’d forgotten him.
Freakin crazy. 

As I recalled that name, some memories burst like a flood.
I’ve been thinking about who was in the finance department for a while, but I forgot as I was busy, either in the north or in the capital.
Now, I remembered.
It was him.

Arrendt Clovis.

That guy was a sub-character.
In terms of personality, he was even a so-called bad man, a rogue.
Of course, in front of Eunice, the female lead, he was infinitely kind and polite.

That was not the problem here.
The thing was he was the person who played a decisive role in making Fiona—who was praised as a great magician in the plot—the final boss.
The reason Fiona became the final boss in the first place was that she made a contract with the Darkness and was unable to control its power.
There were many reasons why she signed with Darkness, but Arrendt was the decisive factor.
And the body I possessed was Fiona’s 

Honestly, the reason I forgot about him was simple.
Because I’ve been paying too much attention to Sigren.
Furthermore, Arrendt was a character that appeared in the middle of the story.
So I didn’t expect that he would appear now, even before the start of the original work.
The population in the capital city was so big, so many people lived here, my chance of meeting him here should be very low, yet I encountered him now, right here? How unlucky am I?

‘A rogue, a bad guy.
He treats everyone like a shit, but he is kind to the woman he loves.’

It was definitely a fun and exciting character to read from the point of view of the female protagonist.
However, from the standpoint of the third person, even in real life, this kind of character was the number one annoying character that even people should avoid the most. 

Well, I’m sorry to say this to the character I made, but to be honest, Arrendt was truly a very dirty person, unlike his polite appearance. 

If Abel was an open-minded yet hot-tempered character, Arrendt was the type that his inside and outside were different. 

Ugh..Fuck it, I don’t know. 

If things went wrong, I would kill him first.
To be able to live a good life as Fiona, I would kill all the characters who wanted to make me the final boss.

I laughed weirdly.
My head became a little weird because of the unexpected situation.
