As of today, I will abandon my family line.
| 05 | The meeting of two people
After the competition, a ball was held to celebrate the engagement.
It was just a show, though
Many young ladies and noblemen attended the ball.
of course
“Congratulations.”
아리센 엘리엇
“Thank you. This is my first time meeting Lady Lucien, so I’m nervous.”
Even Lucien's fiancé, Arisen Elliot
헤인스 벨루안
“..Lucy..”
헤인스 루시엔
“..Think of it as unfolding your mother’s talent instead.”
헤인스 벨루안
“Are you okay? If it’s hard, write me a letter right away. I’ll come get you, even if it’s secretly.”
헤인스 루시엔
“Don’t come back. Draw well there, and remember your mother’s anniversary.”
While the two were talking, Piliot, Rubet, and Avon came out to see Beluan off.
헤인스 필리엇
“I’m going to another city to draw pictures..”
헤인스 루베트
"Goodbye, Beluan. If you need any help, write to me anytime."
헤인스 벨루안
"Yeah. I hope your father is well too. Please don't bother Lucy too much."
헤인스 어본
“...”
헤인스 벨루안
“Lucy. So when are you getting married?”
헤인스 루시엔
“..I should go to the ball today and talk about it. I heard Harold isn’t feeling well..”
헤인스 벨루안
“If you’re getting married, please invite me.”
헤인스 루시엔
“..Take care. I hope you have good news.”
“There you go!”
헤인스 루시엔
“Hello. I am Lucien of the Haines family.”
헤인스 루시엔
“I would like to thank everyone who came to the ball I hosted.”
아리센 엘리엇
“...”
헤인스 루시엔
“I hope you enjoy the time I invited you to.”
Lucy, who didn't appear much in social circles, expressed her gratitude with a smile.
Always seem more adept than those in social circles
헤인스 루시엔
“Have fun.”
“Lucien. Prince Elliot has been waiting for you since a while ago. He’s outside… Go ahead!”
헤인스 루시엔
“Oh.. thank you.”
A person resting on a terrace where the cool night air descends
This is Elliot of the Arisen family.
헤인스 루시엔
“..Prince Elliot.”
아리센 엘리엇
“Uh… hello. I’m Elliot from the Arisen family.”
아리센 엘리엇
“You are as beautiful as the rumors say. Oh, and Cloos is also a beauty of this kind.”
아리센 엘리엇
“You look very similar.”
헤인스 루시엔
“...”
아리센 엘리엇
"I apologize if I've offended you. The night air is chilly. Shall we go in?"
헤인스 루시엔
“..Why?”
아리센 엘리엇
"yes?"
헤인스 루시엔
“..Is it the same for you? Women are merely bridges that carry on the family line.”
헤인스 루시엔
“You too, like our family..”
아리센 엘리엇
"If you think your family is the same as mine, that would be a great offense."
아리센 엘리엇
“..I only entered the competition because you, Lucien, are from the Haines family.”
아리센 엘리엇
“Because I have a lot of entanglements with your family.”
헤인스 루시엔
“..I thought you were close to our family..but I guess not.”
헤인스 루시엔
“It’s as if he’s going to destroy our family.”
A strange current flowed between the two.
A chilling and maddeningly cold current flowed through me.
아리센 엘리엇
“The Haines family is essential to me.”
헤인스 루시엔
“To increase your strength, I guess.”
아리센 엘리엇
“No. Your mother... for the same reason as Cloos.”
헤인스 루시엔
“I think it would be rude to swear at your mother.”
헤인스 루시엔
“Even though we are engaged, this doesn’t seem right.”
아리센 엘리엇
“Clueus died of illness.”
아리센 엘리엇
“Was it really that painful?”
아리센 엘리엇
“Just because you’re not feeling well?”
Elliot approaches Lucy, spitting out each word.
Lucy is taking more and more steps backwards.
아리센 엘리엇
“Do you really think so?”
아리센 엘리엇
“A healthy person suddenly starts vomiting blood and dies.”
헤인스 루시엔
“Elliot, stop it too.”
Lucy, who was gradually retreating, was hanging over the edge of the terrace.
My toes slipped, I lost my balance, and I fell down the terrace.
widely-
아리센 엘리엇
“Be careful.”
아리센 엘리엇
“You, Lucien, are the key to all of this.”
Elliot held Lucy up by wrapping his arms around her waist.
Then he goes near your ear and whispers
아리센 엘리엇
“Your mother..”
아리센 엘리엇
“It doesn’t hurt.”
“He was murdered.”
