Villainous Husband, the One You’re Obsessed With is Over There
Chapter 106

All of a sudden, my mind was clear.

In other words, I could buy myself two weeks to investigate the sanctuary without paying attention to Raniero.

The subjugation party passed the sanctuary and went further to subdue the demons. During that time, staying at the Temple of Tunia, I would have nothing else to do and I could visit the recaptured sanctuary every day to replace out about it.

Well, actually, itd be less than two weeks.

If I left the investigation to Eden, who was included in the subjugation, hed be able to look around at the surface for a day or two at most. Though if I could look inside the sanctuary by myself, even for a week, that would be a much better business.

I glanced up at Raniero.

Ill be here resting. Please take care and come back, Your Majesty.

Seeing his sleek eyebrows twitch slightly at my words, I cautiously added a word while trembling inwardly.

I think Ill be in the way if I go.

Do you think Im going to get caught just because of you?

Euuk.

I felt like it had been a while since Id heard his kind of speech. Nonetheless, I swiftly shook my head and answered.

I dont like it when the troop is delayed to match my pace.

That

I mean, I

My flesh trembled as I interrupted Raniero. Still, he just kept his mouth shut and waited for my words with a displeased expression.

Good. Please be kinder with these words at least he liked me now.

I want to quickly finish the work as soon as possible and return to the imperial palace with Your Majesty

.

To our home.

The eyes that stood on me slowly softened. Even now, the change was still unfamiliar and strange to me.

I lightly touched his hand and whispered.

To the Actilus Empire.

At those words, Raniero turned around without saying anything. The grandfather archbishop looked perplexed, but I didnt care at all. This was a peaceful ending. It didnt seem like I gave the wrong answer, seeing that there were no sarcastic remarks or twisted smiles.

Turning around, I smiled at the Archbishop kindly after his sudden departure.

By any chance, if we recapture the sanctuary, can we go then?

As he only blinked his eyes, I continued my words.

Because Im interested in clemency, to the extent that Ive been studying at the library all the time.

Well, is that so?

Yes, so I thought itd be meaningful to look around the old sanctuary. I promise not to touch anything.

I was relieved again as I watched the light settle on his wrinkled face.

Perhaps, I could enter the sanctuary.

As the black-haired paladin meticulously checked and tidied up his sword and armor, tension was stagnant among the paladins preparing to move into the land of demons. On the other hand, the knights from the Actilus Empire were chattering with each other with heightened faces.

They are horrible.

A paladin named Solon rolled out his tongue with his hands trembling inexorably. The knights of Actilus were looking forward to the battle itself. The anticipation was felt even from afar. However, only Raniero Actilus didnt have a very bright expression.

As Eden glanced around, it was immediately clear why he was in a bad mood.

It was because the Empress, Angelica, was absent.

Even though she was supposed to follow on her subjugation journey, she seemed to have changed her mind and that irritated the Emperor.

Not only that its kind of surprising that the Empress remained here, but its even more surprising that it can touch a persons mood just because shes not going.

Eden thought as he loosened the muscles around his neck.

The Empress Has she tamed him enough to be able to defy the Emperors mood?

Eden, who struggled alone in the temple of Tunia in a distant land, didnt know what magic Angelica had been using for the past few months. However, he could tell that the real Raniero Actilus gave a different impression than the one he received when reading the book.

He didnt look like a human in the book.

Madness, extreme emotional ups and downs, and a vague sense of morality that seemed to be non-human were the keywords that represented Raniero Actilus

Befitting the title of God of War.

Yet now, he seemed human.

Is it because the narrative in a novel is bound to exaggerate only one aspect?

Eden pondered and mounted his horse.

However, that afternoon, when he first encountered the beasts, he was able to feel what kind of existence the Raniero described in the novel was.

Raniero Actilus, who saw a group of marauding demonic beasts, rode out alone without anyone saying anything. Even though it was a marauding party, the monsters were armed in case they encountered humans. But, in just fifteen minutes, they all fell down.

Still, the fallen demons were still breathing.

He did it on purpose.

Raniero then gave orders to his knights in a sweet voice.

Advance.

The next moment, all of the beasts were trampled alive by the horses hooves, and their bones and flesh were crushed mercilessly. It wasnt until their breath stopped that they were freed from the pain.

A chill ran down Edens spine.

The further he got away from Angelica, the more he could see something awakening inside Raniero.
