An Extra Who Wants To Escape The Obsessive Male Lead - Chapter 93.1
Chapter 93.1
I narrowed my eyes, and Diello pointed to the document.
“If you don’t like that place, tell me, and I’ll find another one.”
He smiled as he spoke, and no matter how I looked at it, he seemed to be seriously interested in my real estate business.
It meant that I had to compete with this man to buy land in other areas. Being one of the three great ducal families of the Empire, who had accumulated wealth over a long period of time, and who could have anything they wanted… how could I compete with that?
I crossed my arms and spoke coldly.
“That’s cheating.”
Then, Diello got out of bed and came to me. He approached me with light steps, handed me the document, and tilted his head.
“I was so greedy that I even committed a foul…”
A faint smile spread across his lips.
“I wanted to keep you by my side.”
As if he wouldn’t hide anything, he was revealing everything. Kissing the fingertips holding the document, he met my gaze without avoiding it.
It wasn’t unfamiliar.
It seemed as if he was revealing the things he had been showing me little by little. It seemed that he had been suppressing his true self as much as possible until now. And now, he said he wouldn’t hide it anymore…
As I looked at him with that thought in mind, Diello said.
“So, I had no choice.”
Somehow, he seemed overly interested in my buying the forest. I ended up putting the document on the table.
“What are you going to do with the forest?”
Diello asked. What do you mean, what am I going to do?
“I’ll keep it for now, in case I need it later.”
If I sell it again, wouldn’t I just look stupid?
Diello laughed at my words.
“Then, would you please look at the last page of the document?”
…The last page?
I flipped through the document and looked at the last page.
[ Diello Argenta, the head of Argenta, delegates all ownership and profit rights to the land he owns (commonly known as ‘Daisy Forest’) to Krua Argenta. ]
Below it was already Diello’s seal. Only my seal was empty.
“Did I do well?”
Diello smiled. I blinked.
“Didn’t you buy it, Diello?”
“Yes, because I thought Krua might run away to this forest.”
He narrowed his eyes.
…He was so quick to notice.
“But if I run away with just the forest like this, what are you going to do?”
“This forest is a forest given to ‘Krua Argenta.’ The paperwork isn’t complicated, as it’s a land transfer within the family. However…”
He looked at me quietly.
“Once Krua gives up the Argenta name, it will get a little complicated.”
“….”
He was as cunning as a fox.
Stamp.
Although I stamped it with the quill and ink next to me, I couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. When I glanced at Diello, he smiled.
“Are you disappointed that I’m such a beast?”
It was natural to be disappointed.
When I didn’t answer…
Smooch.
His soft lips touched my fingertips.
“But I’m worried.”
He soon looked up at me with a darkened expression, and he really looked worried.
“What’s wrong?”
It was just before the war, so it wouldn’t be surprising if the situation changed rapidly. Still, what came out of Diello’s mouth was something completely different.
“Now that you know everything about me, what if you decide to leave, Krua?”
He was talking without hesitation, as he said he wouldn’t hide anything.
Smooch.
This time, his lips, which had risen slightly, touched the back of my hand.
“I’m worried about how to seduce Krua so that you’ll stay by my side.”
He smiled beautifully.
His captivating smile caught my eye.

While there was a commotion in Argenta, the situation in the Alors Duchy had been changing rapidly recently.
“We’ll be able to punish Argenta soon!”
“Waaaaah!”
Unlike the Alors knights, who were in high spirits, Duke Alors’s expression was dark.
“For the next Lord, Pentas Alors!”
As he heard the shouts, the Duke’s face turned ashen. He began to tremble as if he were anxious.
‘I didn’t get the symbol!’
Not long ago, his son had said something out of the blue.
‘What?! Are you saying nonsense when my power is clearly waning!’
When the symbol of the head passes to the next head, there would be no major change in the power of the current head immediately after that. Then, after some time, the power of the current head began to decrease rapidly.
Duke Alors was already feeling his power waning rapidly.
