Despite Being an Extra, I'm the Villain's Childhood Friend - Chapter 44.2
Chapter 44.2
“I only gave what she deserved. Others can’t even dream of such a thing even after they die.”
“But Izel said she didn’t want it.”
“I just found out about that.”
“Take it back right now.”
“Why would I?”
Robert gritted his teeth as their conversation ping-ponged back and forth. Then, with anger bubbling over, he shouted.
“Does that mean Izel has to go to the Imperial Palace?!”
“….?!”
Izelin’s eyes widened in surprise. Would she have to go to the Imperial Palace if she accepted this stone? What on earth was it…?
Sensing her bewilderment, Michael hurriedly waved his hands.
“No, no. It’s not like that at all.”
“What do you mean it’s not like that?”
Robert questioned him with a voice full of disbelief. Michael, with an even more resolute tone, continued his words.
“It’s just a way for her to visit whenever she wants without any burden.”
He then added.
“Izel, haven’t you seen this before?”
“No.”
She shook her head.
As the two of them argued, ignoring the person directly involved, Izeline’s curiosity grew like a snowball. To her, it just looked like an expensive and valuable jewel…
“It’s called an Audience Pass. It’s a kind of free pass to see the owner of this emblem.”
“It’s a very precious thing that has never been bestowed upon a commoner.”
Robert added with a hint of dissatisfaction. Michael then shot him a quick glance, signaling him to be quiet before continuing.
“Half of my time in Ernon was spent being harassed by the dean of the Stephil Academy.”
It was clear that the man was incredibly persistent.
Izeline felt a pang of sympathy for Michael.
“But the dean had his own reasons.”
Michael went on, shaking his head vigorously.
“There was someone who was very disappointed that I didn’t enroll in the Academy. So, the headmaster felt pressured and has been trying to persuade me to enroll for the past few years.”
In fact, there must have been countless people who wished for his enrollment, as numerous as the grains of sand on the beach. Izeline nodded with a complicated expression, not particularly surprised. The long-winded introduction was making her uneasy.
“I met with him and explained why Souvri is a good fit for me. I told him I didn’t want to leave.”
Michael then glanced at her cautiously.
“Naturally, your name came up as well.”
“…So, who is it?”
“He seems to like you very much.”
The previously unknown anxiety was slowly taking shape. All three pairs of eyes simultaneously turned to the black obsidian in Izeline’s hand.
“He told you to accept the Audience Pass without any burden. He said it was simply a way to express his desire to meet you someday.”
Her green eyes swayed violently, like a small boat caught in a typhoon. At this point, even the most obtuse person couldn’t help but know who the gift was from.
“Wh, who…”
Her voice trembled.
One figure had already appeared in her mind. The person she should avoid the most for Robert’s safe and happy future…
“Hm? Who else could it be? His Highness, Crown Prince Arsen.”
They said you couldn’t spit in the face of a smiling person.
Michael, with a charming smile, chuckled with an expression that seemed to say, ‘I already told you, so what can I do? It’s not that big of a deal anyway.’
“….”
Izeline felt like crying.
…She had finally, inevitably, become connected to the male lead of this world.
A strong urge to grab the d*mn sub-male lead by the collar and shake him violently surged through her.
