CHAPTER 222:

I woke up only to see the Archduke’s face close to mine. I wanted to slap him away, but I barely had any energy and having people screaming in my ear wasn’t helping. I remembered what happened and ripped the earring from my ear ignoring the pain. I swear I could hear someone clicking a tongue as I did that.

I took a look at my HP and saw it being 25/3500. That was really close. Who would have known what would have happened if the Archduke didn’t come here.

“Thank you for saving me. It would seem that I owe you now.”

“It’s fine, I don’t want others to know yet. I was only passing by. But how the heck did you get your hands on that? As far as I know that item was destroyed.”

Hou, so he knows about this? Really interesting. Well I wasn’t worried about him taking it from me since he really has no intention of taking anything that I gained with my own power. Mermaid’s Tear is the best example. That item was extremely strong, but he never showed any signs of trying to take it from me.

“Took it from the Royal Treasury. I’m surprised you know about it, but I am having some trouble with it. Don’t worry, I will figure it out sooner or later.”

Oh yeah, just before I passed out I gained a new skill. Without being bothered by Archduke’s presence I opened my status and checked the new skill

[Mental Fortitude] – strengthens one’s mind, making it harder to fall under the influence of others and allows one to overpower weaker minds.

Wow, what an amazing skill. The usefulness is amazing. I would say this is one of the best, if not the best skill that I gained so far.

“You still haven’t learned not to open your status in front of others.”

“You already know my status, and I’m pretty sure you have some skill or item that allows you to do so. Besides, no matter what my stats may be, it would be nothing compared to yours. Either way there is no point in trying to hide it from you or pretending that you don’t know.”

After I learned that Daisuke can peak into someone’s status I knew that there would be others with similar abilities and Archduke being one of them.

“Hehe, caught me red-handed.”

“So what are you doing in my room, aside from saving me?”

He wasn’t staying in the castle, but at his villa. In fact, how did he get inside in the first place? I know that this is him we are talking about, but this place is supposed to be guarded constantly.

“Hmm… I wonder what indeed? I guess looking for trouble would be most appropriate. Actually, I wanted you to make some trouble and cause mayhem in the city.”

“Why would I want to do that? The goal is to avoid all possible trouble and be out of here as soon as possible.”

Is he out of his mind? He should be well aware that I don’t want to deal with any troublesome things. I mean it is not like we met yesterday.

“We’ll see… anyways, I was passing by. I suggest you be extra careful now that you gained that skill. [Charm] is considered a mental skill that overpowers others. I’m off, see you later.”

He left me alone in the room. Oh no! I didn’t even think about it. Screw that, I bet [Object of Desire] counts as mental ability and it will be stronger now. I take back my earlier words, this must be the worst skill that I gained. I must not let this skill grow stronger. This is my biggest priority as of now.

And where the heck did Fulgy go? I thought he would appear by now either by climbing through the window or something like that. If he doesn’t come in the next two days I would go and look for him personally.

I looked at the ‘cursed’ earring on the bed before stuffing it back into my inventory. This time will definitely bring me more trouble than I dare to admit. Especially since it will make it so my [Mental Fortitude] will rise in levels and as a consequence other annoying skills will get strengthened.

It seems there is no need to worry about it now. I will deal with it once problems arise. I passed out on my bed and decided to sleep for as long as I can.

(…)

*THUD!*

I jumped from my bed. The door that was slammed open woke me up. Who the heck does this to their guests? I looked up to find a girl looking younger than me wearing a frilly dress that only added to her youthfulness.

“Are you the one that is marrying my Vitou-sama?”

Huh? What is that girl saying? Doesn’t she already know this?

“Yeah, so?”

She was glaring at me. I swear I could see steam blowing off of her, but I was still quite sleepy, so I didn’t want to believe everything I was seeing.

“Listen up, I will not give Vitou-sama to anyone! He is mine! I don’t know who you are and where you came from, but I will never allow you to marry him!”

Oh, so that is the deal , she likes Vitou and assuming from her attitude, she must be a princess or at the very least a daughter of some high noble of Vilikis. Perfect, I can make her into my ally.

“I absolutely agree, you must do your absolute best to sabotage the wedding and prevent me from marrying Vitou. I will be counting on you to do that. If you can do that before I leave Vilikis I will give you two of the finest cut jewels that I own and the best cake I ever baked, so make sure you do your best.”

She was dumbfounded and couldn’t respond at all. I allowed her to collect her thoughts and respond, but before she could half a dozen people burst into my room.
