PDD 10

Chapter 10

The door, which had been rattling a couple of times since then, soon calmed down. The heavy footsteps were heard again, and they gradually moved away. I knew that the person standing outside had left, but just in case, I crouched down in the side room for a long time and held my breath.

What happens if I run into Dylan right now? Dylan is a righteous man, so he’ll hand me over to the security immediately, right? Then he’ll do an execution…!

“Wow, we should never bump into each other.”

Shivering, I rubbed my forearms with both hands. How long will he be in this city? Can I keep the store closed? If I had a cell phone at a time like this, I could have discussed it with Leniel right away. It’s so uncomfortable.

“Hey, call your master. It’s an emergency.”

As I was talking to the innocent butterflies, I let out a long sigh. What’s wrong with butterflies? The problem is the guy who suddenly appeared.

Why did he appear? In the original, I’m sure…

Is it because Giselle Roycevin’s death penalty was not properly executed?

“Did the story go wrong because I’m not dead?”

Is he going to search this place without leaving for the female lead until I die?

“No way.”

Sighing awkwardly, I shook my head. What am I to say? I’m just a middle villain. Something like a stone that was in the street. Something you’ll forget when you clean it up and turn around. There’s no need to persistently find and kill someone like this…

“There is.”

How long have the two main characters been stabbed in the back by Giselle? In addition, Giselle tried to kill the heroine several times. As a result, the heroine went back and forth between life and death. Giselle escaped from prison, so it’s right to take her back.

“It’s driving me crazy.”

Pls read only at pink muffin tl.

After crouching with my head wrapped around me, I raised myself for now. When I slightly lifted the wooden cover covering the window and looked outside, I saw an empty street. Was it Dylan who came all the way here? Maybe it was another guest. He may not have followed me because we may not have made eye contact earlier.

***

The locked door was not opened, but instead, when someone came, I opened the shade slightly to check. Fortunately, neither Dylan nor the soldiers came. The same was true the next day and the next day. Was it my misunderstanding?

“But why isn’t your owner coming?”

He even put up magic butterflies around me because he was afraid I would run away, but why don’t you come when I need you to?

Someone knocked on the door while I was lamenting out of frustration. Judging from the light footsteps, he was neither Dylan nor a soldier. At this rate, it seems that people can be distinguished only by the sound of footsteps.

Will I also gain a new ability to differentiate the footsteps? It’s really useless.

“Oh, what brought you here?”

Standing at the door, it was a boy who recently broke in and coveted the place. The boy, who confirmed that it was me who opened the store, looked unhappy.

“Where is Leniel?”

“I’m also unfamiliar with the boss…”

In the meantime, I don’t think he forgot about me since people deliver groceries regularly to the general store.

“I have something to deliver to Leniel. Please move it.”

“What is it?”

It’s because the person asking for help is so blunt. I changed the subject by kicking my tongue.

“Why are you delivering it all of a sudden? Until recently, you wanted to get a job at this general store, and you went under someone else?”

“You took my place!”

In response to the annoying boy’s response, I closed my mouth with an awkward face. The recruitment time was a little faster than taking it away.

In my eyes, it was uncomfortable to hear that a young-looking guy was doing delivery work for others. Was it that hard to make a living? Obviously, it would have been much easier to check out this general store than to deliver.

“Is it heavy? Ten will be here soon. I think he’ll be more helpful.”

“Do you think I’m only delivering food here? I have to leave this stuff and go somewhere else!”

In this world, delivery must also calculate profits per case. For sure, considering the time Ten usually comes, there is a lot of time left, so maybe I should just help him quickly.

“Where’s the item?”

“It’s in the carriage.”

The alley was not wide enough for a carriage to enter. I paused, frowned and asked back.

“…Carriage?”

“Yes. I covered the alley with a carriage, so I just need to take out the delivery and move it.”

The boy who spoke bluntly turned around. Oh, I don’t even want to go outside the general store, let alone the distance.

After contemplating for a while, I first put my head out the door. The alley was empty as always. It might be okay because I didn’t see any signs for two days, but I don’t know.

After looking at the alley with suspicious eyes, I stepped outside only when I was convinced that no one was there. Stopped at the point toward the end of the alley, I put my body close to the wall again and looked at the street with only my eyes out.

Usually, the city guard station would have been the first to be seen, but as the boy said, the carriage was blocking the view. The luggage compartment was sagging with an off-white fabric, so I couldn’t know what was in it.

The boy standing in a crooked position behind the wagon frowned, annoyed when he found me with only my head sticking out.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m listening.”

“I’ll put it down in front of you by myself somehow, so you can carry it in front of you.”

No, I didn’t want to struggle with heavy burdens for no reason because I wanted to return to the general store as soon as possible. After contemplating for a while, I reluctantly approached the carriage carefully. When I slightly raised my head and looked over the wagon gap, I couldn’t see any guards.

I have to press down on the hood as much as possible and bring the delivery quickly.

“I’ll get it from the bottom, so go up and push it.”

Wearing the hood, I bowed my head as much as possible and headed behind the wagon. When I peeked in, there were several large wooden boxes piled up. Certainly, if this is the case, it was natural for the boy to not hear it alone. Did we order a lot of poisonous plants?

“Why am I going up there?”

“Are you going to drop it on the ground?”

“I don’t want to go up.”

However, I cannot scuffle on the street where my wanted badge is attached. Eventually, I climbed onto the luggage compartment with a feeling of discomfort.

“What kind of box is it?”

“Inside it, no. Not that, but below that.”

They were all the same-looking boxes, so it was difficult to find them at once just by the boy’s insincere explanation. You should at least write your name on the box.

The moment I finally found the box the boy said and tried to push it with strength as I walked inside the luggage compartment, a voice spoke.

“Stop moving.”

A knife came right under my chin.

In my eyes, which were stiff with my knees bent vaguely, I could see the smiling boy’s face. He had a mean look on his face and looked back at the man who put a knife in my neck.

“You have to give me the reward you promised. Don’t forget to delete my crime records.”

Did he just sell me?

“I’ll take into account that you cooperated in catching a felon.”

Ahh…

“Wait, I think there’s a misunderstanding.”

I stretched my neck as far back as I could and spoke urgently. But the boy lowered the tent that he had rolled up laughing at me. At the same time, the wagon suddenly moved. Unable to overcome the rebound, I stumbled and fell on my butt.

“Ugh!”

The tingling pain spread from the buttocks due to a strong fall on the hard wooden floor inside the carriage. I could see better when I sat down. Dylan Stasi, looking down at me with a cold gaze and aiming the knife.

“Hey, why are you doing this to me when I just met you…?”

First of all, pretend you don’t know.

“I’m sorry, but please remove this. No. Wait a minute. I asked you to remove it, not push it further. Can you threaten an innocent person like this?”

“What?”

With his mouth twisted as if absurd, he pushed my hood from the end of his sword which he took out. My platinum blonde covered in the hood appeared.

“Giselle Roycevin. You’re innocent?”

“Oh, oh! I hear a lot that I look like her. I guess there was a mistake. Hahaha!”

I smiled as good as I could with a harmless look that I once used for Leniel. Of course, Dylan didn’t budge an inch. He didn’t take off the sword that aimed at my neck.

Even if you don’t, you’re standing in a wagon with a dangerous sword! What if you accidentally poke someone?

I, who desperately gave my body strength not to roll around in the rattling wagon, swallowed dry saliva and glanced sideways. Whenever the ivory fabric fluttered, I could see the outside scenery that quickly passed by.

“But where are we going right now…?”

Is it a prison? Or is it going straight to the gallows this time?

“Hey!”

“Your acting has improved. I already know that you have accepted evil beings.”

No, this guy? They said he had eyes to see the essence. Was it all a lie?

“What are you talking about? I’m not evil.”

Dylan squinted his eyes. The cold gaze made me cough and added words.

“I said, you saw the wrong person!”

“Is it a side effect of abstinence? Or were you completely eaten by the devil?

Obviously, he was a friendly and sweet male protagonist for the heroine, but now Dylan in front of me was just a scary knight.

Wow, it turns out that he has a dual personality. I can’t believe he said I’m eaten by the devil. At least I’m more of a normal person than I was.

“It doesn’t matter either way. This time, you’ll die.”
