Chapter 163
Translator: Yonnee
—
Dietrich’s mind was still trapped in the past, reliving that night from just a few days ago.
After dinner, Charlotte had approached him with a beautiful smile. Enchanted, he gazed at her, and then untied her ribbon.
Her clothes slipped to the floor with a soft rustle, and with a simple gesture, she loosened his clothes as well.
And then…
Recalling that moment, Dietrich’s face turned bright red again.
It had been the happiest moment of his life.
He had never experienced anything so sweet.
Normally, something so overwhelmingly sweet would become sickening, but instead, his greed only grew.
His growing desire consumed him, and for a man who had lived his whole life in restraint, it was the first time he had ever lost control like that.
Dietrich wanted to see Charlotte again.
He wanted to go and kiss her.
In the end, he moved to meet her.
Charlotte had told him never to come up when she was on the fourth floor.
So, he stood by the stairs leading to the fourth floor, waiting anxiously for her to come down.
How much time had passed?
At last, the woman he had been waiting for descended the stairs, her skirt swaying gently.
“Dietrich.”
Seeing him, Charlotte smiled brightly as she came down the stairs. Happiness filled him once again.
“Come here, Dietrich.”
She spread her arms wide, inviting him into her embrace.
Without hesitation, he wrapped his arms around her. Her body was cold, but his heart warmed.
And then it happened.
Dietrich suddenly felt dizzy. His vision went dark.
“Are you alright, Dietrich?”
“…Charlotte.”
“What’s wrong, Dietrich?”
Suddenly, he couldn’t see. The world had turned to darkness.
Dietrich had experienced this before.
It was like the time he faced that monster on the first floor and was temporarily blinded by the poison in the air.
“Is it your vision? Can you not see?”
“How did you—”
“Because I took it from you, of course.”
Charlotte lightly pushed his shoulder.
The warmth in his embrace vanished in an instant.
“Your eyes… they disgust me.”
“…Charlotte?”
“That night, when you looked at me, it made me so uncomfortable. So I took your sight away. That’s alright, isn’t it?”
“……”
It had been the best moment of his life. Yet she whispered in his ear just how horrific it had been for her.
“It was filthy. It felt as if I was covered in grime.”
“…I see.”
Dietrich had experienced this many times before.
Whenever her eyes turned red, she would hurl insults at him and treat him cruelly. Maybe this time was no different.
“Oh, right. You might misunderstand my true feelings.”
A slender hand brushed across his eyes. The touch was so gentle, it sent a shiver down his spine.
As her hand passed over, his vision returned.
But what he saw was a sight he didn’t want to believe.
There she was, watching him from a breath’s distance away, her blue eyes shining.
In the bright, dazzling world, Dietrich slowly tasted despair.
“In case you had any doubts.”
She covered his eyes once again.
And once more, darkness fell.
* * *
Charlotte had changed.
Whenever she saw him, her words were filled with curses.
“I wish you would leave this place as soon as possible.”
“……”
“It’s exhausting to see that wretched face of yours every day.”
“……”
“I wish I could go back to the time before you came into this mansion.”
She would say such things, smiling ever so brightly.
—With her blue eyes.
Every time she looked at him, she casually reminded him just how terrible he was.
And when things didn’t go her way, she would take away his sight, and sometimes even one of his arms.
Then, she would ask him,
“Dietrich, do you still love me?”
“I love you, Charlotte.”
He still loved her.
So, he would beg her to look at him as she had before.
He would grovel, pleading for her love.
“Then prove your love to me.”
“I’ll do anything, anything you ask.”
He couldn’t afford to miss this chance. Though Charlotte sneered at him, he clung to her even more desperately.
“Go into that room.”
She wrapped a black cloth around his eyes.
“I won’t take your sight this time.”
His body, shrouded in darkness, became acutely attuned to touch. As soon as she kissed him, he was consumed by burning desire.
As she ran her hands over him, she said,
“There’s a monster in that room. Go in there like this and kill them all. You can do that, right?”
“I can.”
“Don’t take off the blindfold. If you do, I’ll think you’ve betrayed me.”
Dietrich burned her words into his mind.
She handed him a sword, and Dietrich, blindfolded, went into the room and came back alive.
“What’s this? Why are you still alive?”
Charlotte was annoyed that he had survived.
“Dietrich, are you left-handed or right-handed?”
Out of nowhere, she asked him a strange question.
“I’m ambidextrous.”
“Hmm, is that so? What should I do… Oh, I know.”
She then tied the blindfold over his eyes again and bound both of his arms behind his back with chains.
“Now go back in like this. You can do it, right?”
She whispered into his ear, laughing softly.
If you love me, then prove it.
