I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast

Chapter 19

And Rona?

The butler seemed embarrassed.

Wheres Rona?

She hasnt come back yet.

Eleon calmly said.

Maybe shes wasting time somewhere on purpose.

He was aware of it.

At first, he sent her to do chores, and she went to do it.

Then she comes in when his seizures have stopped.

Send two or three knights to Cafe Cardinal. If shes not in the cafe, look around.

Yes, I will.

Cafe Cardinal is only a 5-minute walk from the Grand Dukes residence.

I thought that sending knights was a bit excessive, but there was no reason for the butler to disobey the masters orders.

As Bernard disappeared out of the room to call knights, Eleon let out a long sigh.

Im lonely.

He was tossed alone in severe pain on his cozy bed.

What an ironic loneliness.

When I opened my eyes, I was very hungry for Rona, who always has comforted me.

I didnt want her to be sad and afraid because I was in pain.

What would you be like if you were in the past?

If someone had felt sorry for him, he might have considered it an insult.

But now, it was different.

Such feelings are based on understanding and empathy.

At some point, I wasnt satisfied with Rona just giving me the perfect service.

I want to get closer to her. I want to reach her.

He felt like something was missing.

Eleon unconsciously licked his lips.

A bitter taste of blood rose from his rough, cracked lips.

He probably wouldnt look good enough.

He believed Rona would give him water with her soft lips.

Eleon sent her out because he didnt want her to suffer.

But when he regained consciousness, he wanted her by his side right away.

Rona is not a clock.

Whats the point of knowing if he was sane or if he had lost his mind in a seizure?

Still, I kept getting anxious about Ronas absence.

It was then.

RAGING

Eleons eyes were on fire.

Argh!

A seizure caught me off guard.

It was the first time I had suffered this outrageous pain.

Bernard! Bernard! AHHHHH .

Bernard rushed in.

Your Highness! Are you all right?

Eyes Are my eyes on fire?

The theyre not.

Listening to the butlers embarrassed voice, Eleon thought there was no way his eyes werent burning.

He felt his eyes melting like candles in a blazing fire and flowed out of the snow.

That cant be true. My eyes are melting and flowing.

Your Highness Your Highness Theyre not.

The butler cried.

Your eyes are filled with tears.

Ugh.

Eleon was in pain.

The butler swallowed a cry and placed a towel over his mouth.

And so began another long seizure.

* * * * *

They moved Rona to a more secret room.

She blinked.

Only Duchess of Yuter and Iris remained with her in the room.

Using the two large mirrors, Rona looked behind her back.

She had her back uncovered, and there was a strange spot near her left shoulder.

Five circles were arranged like petals, and a small pentagon was drawn in red in the center.

What is this? Is it a tattoo?

When Rona asked, Iris took off her robe and showed her back.

Oh!

The same thing that was on my body was on her back.

Her skin color was a little darker, and it was closer to a reddish color than the pink patterns on Ronas body.

Its a scar.

Iris put on the robe again.

Its a priesthoods token. It means that you have become a servant of God and it appears close to the heart. A mark appeared on our backs.

It just appeared?

Iris nodded her head.

You dont remember anything?

It was Ronas turn to nod.

God engraved it when I finish training and become an official priest.

Did God engrave it?

Yes, it appears on its own after the ceremony.

Heee.

It was just amazing.

Now I feel like Im in a novel.

Its because I havent had a chance to know this kind of setting since Ive only been at home with Eleon.

I dont look at every corner of my naked body in front of the mirror.

Its been about a year since I came here, but it was the first time I had to see something like this in my body.

Duchess of Yuter and Iris felt sorry for themselves.

They didnt know what to do.

Then did the original Elysia die?

So, thats why she was able to possess her.

And she keeps saying that Elysia is a priest, but she couldnt hear the voice of God at all.

Excuse me, Iris.

Iris seemed happy when Rona called her, even though she was disappointed that she couldnt remember her.

If you are a priest, do you also hear the voice of God?

Yes, its natural. If you cant hear Gods voice, you cant even come to Hadunsha.

Ahhh. But what about it? I cant hear anything.

Iris and the Duchess of Yuter exchanged complex glances.

And if Im Elysia, what happened? Why did I lose my memory and appeared somewhere?

Rona told them that she had woken up on the shores of Lake Laurel and that she was found by a couple of rangers forest.

The two of them screamed when they heard that she was found out at Laurel Lake.

Lake Laurel Thats ridiculous.

Why?

According to them, Elysia disappeared on her way to Grerosa for a sabbatical.

Grerosa is a place where priests go to commune with God, heal their minds, and rest.

She was ambushed on her way to Grerosa.

It is said that the escorts were slaughtered, and all the priests were also killed.

Rona got goosebumps all over her body.

What happened to Elysia?

After confirming that she possessed Elysias body through various shreds of evidence, it couldnt have anything to do with her.

By the way, was there a scene like this in <Flower of the Blind Beast>?

It was completely unfamiliar.

I dont remember seeing any talk about the temple or oracles.

I didnt even know if something like that would come out later.

Lake Laurel is a place where it takes a whole week by carriage from where you disappeared.

She said that the road was rough because there was a canyon.

Roughly counting the time of Elysias disappearance and the time Rona wakes up from the lake, moves to the city, the capital, and works at the Grand Dukes residence.

It seems that it was only a day or two after Elysias disappearance that she woke up in Laurel Lake.

Then Im not Elysia, am I?

Iris was furious at Ronas question.

You just saw the scar. Even after seeing the mark of the divine god, you said those words.

The problem was that I couldnt hear Gods voice. I cant hear it at all.

Anyway, its too late. If I dont go back, they will worry.

Duchess of Yuter and Iris faces became weird at the same time.

Suddenly the Duchess asked.

By the way, where have you been staying? I dispatched people to search for you through the whole empire. I couldnt find a single hair, they said you must have been torn to pieces by the water of the canyon.

She was crying.

Im working as a maid for the Grand Duke Clevent.

What?

I beg your pardon?

Once again, seeing both of them startled at the same time, Rona felt bombarded.

Im serving Sir Eleon. I made a lot of money.

Oh, please. Hey.

The Duchess put her hands on her head, dizzy.

Today, I was just out on an errand for the Grand Duke for a while.

Did you mean you attended Grand Duke yourself?

Yes.

Rona answered honestly.

She had no reason to lie.

Maybe you and Grand Duke Clevent .

Oh no.

She had a different predestined partner.

I dont know what will happen in the future, though.

There were times when I woke up from Eleons bed, but it was never something the Duchess asked.

Iris nodded when Rona denied it.

If you are not pure, the scar will disappear.

Thats right. Really.

Upon learning something new, Ronas eyes widened.

However, they didnt seem to want to go into more detail.

Anyway, you are Elysia Yuter, not Rona Hera Palace.

Thats right, thats right.

Iris affirmed vigorously.

From this moment on, you must never go to the Grand Dukes house.

Yes?

The Duchess declared firmly.

You cant go back to the Grand Duke.

* * * * *

The Butler was about to die.

The Grand Dukes condition was unusual.

The pain was divided into several types.

However, it was the first time Eleon was making strange noises that he wondered if he was speaking psychotic nonsense.

He says his eyes were on fire, and his eyeballs were melting and flowing out.

He felt sorry for Eleons situation.

But I wondered if the pain had gone too far and if he had gone crazy because he never had seizures that lasted for such a long time.

I didnt think the Grand Dukes mental power was that weak.

It was so much pain, it wouldnt be strange if someone went crazy.

Many times, Bernard thought he was going crazy just by looking at him.

Even after Eleons wretched screams had stopped, somehow his voice remained in his head, and he thought he was hallucinating.

Thinking that I might have gone crazy, I was afraid to venture into Eleons bedroom for a long time, even after the bedroom was quiet.

Besides, he couldnt find Rona.

Before his seizure, he had sent knights to search for her on the Grand Dukes orders.

But they couldnt find her and returned empty-handed.

The last few days, the butler felt that the condition of his master was unusual.

For half a year, Rona and Eleon have been keeping an appropriate line as employer and employee.

But the past few days, it seems that something has been broken between the two of them.

I saw my Lord drinking water from her mouth.

I sneakily asked Rona about it, but she answered naively.

Because the butler did it like that too.

Bernard was stunned.

Eleon sold him out as a loyal vassal to lure Rona.

I couldnt believe that a well-groomed man would do such a thing, so I wondered if he was crazy.

In the meantime, failing to find Rona was stuck in his neck, it was uncomfortable like a thorn.

CLACK

As he opened the door and entered, Eleon turned his head and looked at him.

Release me.

His eyes were shining red in the dark.
