The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

34 – Scene 034# Debt

*

“Wake up.”

“Ugh!?”

Blanche opened her eyes at the voice she heard out of nowhere.

But as she tried to get up, she had to frown in agony.

There was no pain anywhere in my body.

The man who suddenly appeared and interrupted everything was messed up.

yes. Where is Marco?!

“He’s already gone.”

When she looked up, a handsome man was looking down at her.

It was Tristan Ruelberta, an aristocrat who had no intention of hiding his arrogant attitude.

“The Count… What?!”

“It will still be difficult to move. Because you stood up against Marco’s magical power.”

There was no strength in the body.

It was only then that he realized that he was lying on the floor.

Blanche asked.

“… … Did I lose?”

“yes. You lost to him.”

She had already returned to her human body.

It seems that even with her superhuman resilience, she was unable to fully recover.

The cold magic flowing through his body was completely exhausted.

It was as Tristan said.

he is defeated

Blanche lowered her head.

To think there was such a monster… .

Marco, the captain of the imperial family’s bodyguard.

He received Blanche’s attack casually.

No matter what I did, it didn’t work at all.

She was the one who lived through assassination in the past.

The number of targets she has defeated are innumerable.

Especially in the interpersonal battle, I was confident that I would not lose to anyone, and I was actually like that.

There was no opponent she could not defeat.

But Blanche lost.

That too twice a day.

Blanche grabbed his shoulder.

It felt like it would collapse if I didn’t.

The shaking didn’t stop.

She had to sit down on the cold floor and taste the utter helplessness.

‘… He died twice.’

Blanche never fought without risking his life.

For an assassin, defeat is death.

For her, fighting was always a life-and-death fight.

And today, she lost.

But… was still alive

“Why are you alive… ?”

“Didn’t you want to live?”

Blanche raised her head.

Tristan was looking at her.

“I thought you wanted to live. Wasn’t that?”

“How much do you think you know about me?”

“know.”

“?”

Tristan spoke calmly.

“I know. who you are.”

It was as if she was looking at Blanche with all-seeing eyes, so she couldn’t meet his gaze.

“Are you casually saying such arrogant things?”

“I am only telling the truth.”

A very confident speech.

Come to think of it, the old Tristan was this kind of man.

An arrogant boy who was self-righteous and steeped in the idea of the chosen people.

At least he was the one she saw.

Just looking at that expression made Blanche angry for some reason.

“… Nope. Tristan, you know nothing.”

Blanche bit her lip.

“How much I hate you.”

“Know.”

“How much I want to kill you.”

“I know that too.”

“How much I hate you.”

“I know everything.”

“Nope! Nope! What do you know! You don’t even know! Because if you knew me that well-!”

The taste of blood spread in his mouth.

“You would have killed me… I am your hindrance.”

Blanche covered her face with both hands.

While she was unconscious, Tristan had several chances.

If he had killed her then, he would have died.

But for some reason he didn’t kill her.

Blanche made up her mind.

“Kill me now. Otherwise… .”

she looked at him

“I will seek your life again.”

Tristan sighed.

And he slowly approached her.

He bent on one knee and spoke in front of her eyes.

“Know. The fact that you’re going to target me again.”

“?!”

“But I will not die.”

Tristan was looking straight into Blanche’s eyes.

As if looking into her heart.

“I am confident of that.”

“… … .”

he threw something

It was a torn coat.

The coat he was wearing from the previous battle was also tattered.

“Slowly put on your clothes and get up. It could happen now.”

“This… … What?!”

The moment Blanche lowered her head, as if not knowing what she was talking about, she realized that she was almost naked.

The clothes she was wearing were also not safe in battle.

The clothes Bella bought me after a long time are a mess.

She was devastated.

But Tristan, as if he didn’t feel sorry for him at all, snapped at her.

“Stop going back. But how long can you pay?”

“… payment?”

What the hell is this man talking about?

“What do you mean?”

“Right. I didn’t mention the amount. From my point of view, it is at least 800 million kaels.”

“… … So what are you talking about?”

“It’s a repair fee.”

“Repair cost… ?”

“yes.”

Tristan pointed around.

To be precise, the roof of a ruined department store.

“Thanks to your hard work, the garden on the roof was ruined.”

“Yes?! no, that’s… .”

“You’re not thinking of leaving someone else’s property to this point, are you?”

“property? what is this… No, wait, did this really belong to you?!”

“Yes. I took over a while ago.”

Tristan speaks nonchalantly as if he bought something at the market.

What is the extent of this rich man’s wealth?

He held out his palm to her.

“So when are you going to give it to me? 800 million kaels.”

“that… ! It’s no wonder you don’t have that kind of money!”

“yes. I didn’t even expect it. One body of yours is worth it, so repay it with your body.”

“what what what… Worth it! What the hell are you talking about!?”

The startled Blanche covered herself.

It wasn’t enough to cover it with a coat.

“Are you going to insult me?!”

“Can’t you?”

“I can’t!”

“Then you can claim it from your master.”

“?!”

Blanche’s face went pale.

She, too, was well aware of the circumstances of the duchy.

If Bella finds out, he might pay off her debt.

But… … .

“that’s… It’s not possible.”

“why not?”

“Don’t tell the lady. This is my responsibility to the end.”

Blanche gritted her teeth.

Because this situation was so humiliating.

I owed a debt to the man I hated so much.

What kind of life will I have to live in the future?

“I will pay you back… … .”

“yes. then… .”

Tristan held out his hand.

“Cheer up.”

“Why am I-!”

“It’s 50,000 kaels.”

“?!”

he beckoned her.

in a very relaxed manner.

“Get help quickly.”

*

“Please evacuate one by one.”

Following the instructions of the staff, nobles were leaving the department store one after another.

Wendy and Bella were sitting on a bench outside a department store.

“What the hell is this all about… .”

Bella looked up at the top of the department store, bewildered.

Indeed, smoke was rising there.

They were evacuated after being told by staff that an explosion of unknown cause had occurred on the roof about 30 minutes ago.

There didn’t seem to be any casualties, but it wasn’t a good thing that the long-awaited shopping ended like this.

‘But those red armored knights… … .’

It was an incongruous scene.

As far as Bella knows, there is only one knight in this country that wears the red armor.

But there was no reason for them to be here.

Because they were always in the imperial palace.

“Oh, something is strange… .”

Then, Wendy, who had been silent by her side all along, opened her mouth.

“The Count still hasn’t come out… .”

“Yes?”

“It seems like almost all of the people have come out, but I can’t see the ship, the Count… Hey, maybe something happened?”

Wendy’s slightly weeping eyes are watery.

Bella wiped Wendy’s eyes with her sleeve.

“Wendy. Do not worry. Nothing will happen to the Count.”

“That, but… .”

“There’s no way anything bad could happen to that person. No matter how you look at it, you must be pretending to be proud while spending money again.”

“I would rather have…” . Be, Bellen… you… No, Bella’s party hasn’t come out yet… ? Are you okay?”

“I’m not worried because he’s so strong.”

Blanche became an escort knight for the duke at a young age.

She was strong from the first time she stepped into the ducal family.

He was better than others and had great talent.

That’s why I was appointed as Bella’s escort knight, overtaking the other escort knights.

But… .

‘If you leave me alone like this, you will be disqualified as an escort knight.’

Just as Bella was about to get impatient, crossing her legs, Wendy jumped to her feet.

“Bae, Count!”

As she said, she saw Tristan coming from the other side.

But he wasn’t alone.

A young woman was supporting him.

The moment she recognized the woman’s face, Bella couldn’t help but shout in surprise.

“Blanche!”

“Ah, lady… !”

Blanche’s eyes widened when she saw Bella.

“Where the hell have you been? You were worried.”

“that is… .”

Blanche averted her gaze as if she was embarrassed.

As if showing something that shouldn’t be shown.

Bella crossed her arms and studied her face.

It’s clear what happened.

“Besides, why are you two here? What about the clothes again? Are you hurt? answer me Blanche.”

“The fact is… .”

At Bella’s questioning, Blanche didn’t know what to do.

Fully aware of Tristan next to her, she hesitated.

“… This man saved me.”
