Becoming the Villain’s Family - Chapter 243
Chapter 243
Tristan felt nauseous and stuffy, so he frowned and sucked in the smoke deeply.
His taste buds were so bitter and even sour that he started to feel more unpleasant than ever.
So much so that he wanted to grab whatever was in front of him and throw it away.
The smoke that had been clouding Tristan’s eyes cleared, and he made eye contact with the Emperor.
When Conrad II met the eyes resembling abysses, he trembled unknowingly.
He didn’t know why, but for the Valentine clan, the word everything within sight is within range came to mind.
At that moment.
“Your Majesty! Please forgive my rudeness!”
Dwayne, who had been waiting calmly outside the throne room, came running with a breathless face.
“What’s going on?”
Normally, this would have been enough to offend, but the Emperor acted lenient and asked. Because he wanted to quickly get out of the sight of that nasty Grand Prince.
Then Dwayne spoke in a dazed state, as if his soul had been taken away.
“I think the Grand Prince should return to the Grand Duke’s castle right now.”
Sabina wondered if she had already passed out and was dreaming.
Otherwise, there would be no way for Tristan to have that kind of expression or look in his eyes.
Yet he seemed to have no idea what kind of face he was making.
“Are you crazy? Why on earth did you do such a reckless thing? Shouldn’t you have run away! If the malice were released from the Grand Duke’s body…!”
Tristan was going to shout at the top of his lungs, but then he looked down at Sabina, who looked like she was about to die. He clenched his teeth.
Now was not the time for this.
“Take her to the doctor right now.”
He gave an order to Dustin, who had also come over from the imperial palace.
Dustin quickly took Sabina and ran as steady as possible.
Sabina had no choice but to lie down helplessly in the knights’ arms.
She saw a sight over his shoulder.
Grand Duke Valentine, staggering to his feet, swung his fist.
The wind pressure alone caused Tristan’s long hair to flutter as if hit by a typhoon, and his skin was torn as if he had been cut by a sharp sword.
Tristan rubbed his cheek with the back of his hand for a moment and then twisted his mouth.
He drew his sword and blocked the fist, while at the same time turning his body halfway and swinging at the Grand Duke again.
As the Grand Duke turned his body to avoid his blow, the dozens of trees lined up in a row were instantly cut into pieces.
That was the limit.
There was no way to endure the rushing fatigue any longer.
Sabina just closed her eyes.
She didn’t budge as if she was dead.
When Sabina opened her eyes, it was early afternoon with the sun high in the sky.
As soon as she came to her senses, she jumped up.
There was no particular pain in her body.
‘What? Before I passed out, I was sure…….’
Just before she passed out, she was so dazed that she couldn’t check on her body.
However, she had a rough guess.
Her whole body was covered in blood, her bones hurt as if they were crushed, her organs felt stabbing pain, her ears were ringing, her vocal cords were damaged…….
‘…… I almost died.’
Even if she didn’t die, she thought she would be fatally injured in some way.
Sabina groped her body.
Rather, her body felt refreshed and lighter than usual, as if she had been reborn.
“Kuhm, aahh.”
Her voice comes out just fine.
When she was feeling puzzled.
“Madam!”
Dana, who had been dozing off next to her, jumped up when she heard Sabina. Her face, which had been covered in fatigue, suddenly brightened up.
“You’re awake!”
“Dana.”
The one that caused Sabina to turn back from escaping Valentine’s Castle.
“You’re safe.”
Sabina smiled as she stretched out her arms and hugged Dana tightly.
Dana, who was frozen for a moment by Sabina’s sudden act, soon huffed with an angry face.
“Safe? That’s what I should be saying! I was just quietly staying in my room at the time!”
On the other hand, what about Sabina?
Not only did she run to the annex, confronted Grand Duke Valentine head-on, she even plunged her sword into his heart.
“If you have such a serious accident, at least you should come back safely….”
How surprised she was when Sabina returned, covered in blood and in the knight’s arm. Dana recalled the scene at that time and her eyes filled with tears again.
If Dana’s heart had been any weaker, she would have already died of a heart attack.
“I was so worried that you would never wake up!”
Her tone of voice made it seem as if a considerable amount of time had passed since Sabina passed out.
“How long has it been?”
“It’s been a week.”
Dana said, sniffling.
‘A week…….’
As expected, it was a week. Just on the day when the betting period ends.
Sabina realized that she should not be dissatisfied with the fact that her title had now been established as Madam.
“Ha…….”
She curled up and hugged her legs, letting out a sigh of relief.
She suddenly felt her whole body loosening up.
It was something she had prepared for, but when it came to this, she became even more miserable.
“Is the one who treated me a doctor?”
“Of course not. How could a doctor heal such a wound in just a week?”
“Then?”
“Call him if you need anything.”
Dana said, pointing her finger to the room next door.
“His Holiness the Pope is always on standby.”
The Pope?
“Did I just hear right?”
“That’s right.”
Although the Garcia Empire also had an Emperor, it was merely a puppet.
The real power is the Pope.
She had just received intensive treatment from the ruler of an empire. She thought it was a mischievous joke, but Dana was serious.
“How on earth?”
“I’m not sure about that either. I can only guess that the Grand Prince may have made some kind of deal.”
“Right… the Pope has the ability to heal both external and internal injuries at once.”
Sabina muttered in a dazed state.
