An Extra Who Wants To Escape The Obsessive Male Lead - Chapter 98.2
Chapter 98.2
“It doesn’t matter if it’s not real love.”
Krua knew that Diello did not love her but had forcibly opened his heart to her for Argenta’s sake. In short, he only loved her ability as Ferro and gave her nothing but human affection.
“I know now that you’re not a villainess, but I can’t truly love you.”
She understood because Diello told her.
“…I understand.”
Even though she knew that Diello Argenta hated her because of her father’s sins, she couldn’t blame him. It was because she suddenly realized it the day she erased one lily from his collarbone.
[ Don’t forget your purpose. ]
Duke Alors’ letter, which had come floating on the water, had brought her to her senses.
She was a fake Ferro.
When Diello’s lilies were completely erased, Alors would come to crush Argenta. Diello Argenta, whom she loved, would realize the moment she erased all the lilies… that he was deceived.
And that she was a fake Ferro.
Knowing that, she still couldn’t say anything.
That she was a fake.
It was no use trying to avoid the night. Duke Alors sent people to her frequently to urge her, and Alors’ eyes, planted in Argenta, were watching her. If she erased all his lilies like this, she would be exposed as a fake Ferro. That was why she wanted to avoid the night even more.
However, not long after, two lilies disappeared.
“I’m the real Ferro, what are you talking about? Look!”
The real Ferro appeared.
“Then, you are…”
As the real Ferro appeared, Diello realized that she was a fake.
“You didn’t give your purity to a fake, did you?”
The sharp voice of the real Ferro, Venia, rang out.
“Lock that fake up in prison right away.”
Diello didn’t stop Venia’s sharp words.
Krua was soon locked in an underground prison, forgotten amidst the urgent situation unfolding in Argenta.
Left alone, she pleaded with the jailer to let her see Diello.
“I have something to say to Diello!”
“….”
Though the jailer ignored her words.
No…!
She had to tell him the truth, now… the truth that if she erased all of his lilies, then Duke Alors would invade.
Even though it was late, she had to say it.
“Please!”
Just as she had finally persuaded the jailer and followed him to the surface.
“I’m sure the lord would have wanted it this way. Don’t let the plan be exposed.”
The spy of Alors, who had been disguised as a jailer, said.
“Aahh!”
Alors’s army had already invaded Argenta.
“Attack!”
“Kill every last drop of Argenta’s bloodline!”
Alors was determined to take away Argenta’s power, and the one who opened the door to that plan was Krua herself.
“….”
Did he see her from afar?
For a moment, it seemed as if she had met Diello’s gaze as he turned his head. The last look he gave her was complicated. One thing was certain, however, that his gaze didn’t contain only negative emotions.
…Was it pity, or anger, or betrayal?
Krua couldn’t tell.
Before she could even ask―
“Gotcha.”
―The hand of Alors’ assassin grabbed her hair. In the end, she looked up at the sword of Alors’ assassin that was thrust toward her. Behind her, she could see a huge fire and water colliding in the distance.
―Crash!
The fire extinguished some of the water, but that was all. In the end, it was swallowed up by the water and sank.
‘…It’s my fault.’
Krua’s thoughts echoed in her mind.
‘If only I hadn’t fallen in love.’
‘If only I had been the real Ferro. If only I hadn’t deceived him.’
None of this would have happened. It was no use regretting it so much.
―Roar!
The blood that stained the floor red drew out her primal power to its fullest. The assassin approached Krua, who was growling.
“It’s no use struggling!”
The assassin of Alors sneered and thrust his sword at her. However, without realizing it, she had drawn out her power of source, and what she wished for was not the power to save herself.
‘…Just one more chance for him. If I could give him another chance, then.’
Diello, that kind man…
She wished the Ferro could be the one to make that man happy.
That voice echoed along with the memory before the darkened vision lit up with a blue light.
