Chapter 150: Met a Disgusting Man ②

Translated by AmaLynne

Julian continues to laugh hysterically with his hands on?his stomach.

“Keep laughing until you die.”

“You’re so annoying.”

“Hahaha…Oh, you made me laugh. I never thought that someone would have such an attitude toward me, the heir to the Sword Saint, so naive.”

He’s just a candidate, but he is a brazen guy who claims to be the successor of the sword saint.

Rather, his words and deeds have been deliberate and irritating ever since.

“I have one word of advice for Lise. I know you’ve been coming to the dojo recently, but please make sure you don’t say anything unnecessary to Mizuki-sama.”

“What do you mean by ‘anything unnecessary’?”

“Everything. She is my wife-to-be.”

“Are you serious?”

“Of course I am. Well, I don’t like her, but as heir to the title of Sword Saint, I have to put up with her.”

“――You! Stay away from Mizuki!”

Lise, who had been frightened of Julien up to now, apparently could not tolerate his behavior of making fun of her friend and glared at him angrily.

But Julien didn’t even show any sign of caring about Lise’s gaze and sighed.

“Oh, dear. I don’t understand what you are so angry about. That’s how aristocratic marriages work. I didn’t marry you out of love, either.”

“Enough!”

Sam’s angry voice attracted the attention of the passersby.

Julian, too, was not going to make a big fuss in front of the crowd, and he clicked his tongue in annoyance.

“I told you, Lise. If you do anything unnecessary, you will offend me. No, my house. That’s not what you or your father would want. ――Do you understand?”

“You think I’m going to nod my head with a threat like that? No, that’s before you even start. I don’t need to tell you that Mizuki will never take you seriously.”

“Well, I don’t know about that. Well, that’s okay. I’ve told you what I’m going to tell you, so I’m going to go now. I don’t enjoy the stares of the common people.”

Julien was about to turn on his heel when he stopped and looked at Sam.

“Yes, Samuel Scheidt, I believe.”

“Don’t call me by my name so casually; it would be embarrassing if people misunderstood that we were friends.”

“I hope to see you again.”

“I don’t want to.”

“No, I’m sure we’ll meet again.”

Julien turned his back with a meaningful remark.

He disappeared into the bustle.

“Is everything all right, Lise-sama?”

When Julian disappeared, Sam called out to his fiancée with concern.

She seemed to be acting stoutly, but her complexion was not so good.

“Yes, I’m fine. I’m just a little surprised, I didn’t expect to see him out of the blue in the middle of nowhere.”

“He was a nasty man.”

“I agree with Hanae-sama.”

“I should have hit him. I regret it a little.”

“It’s best to leave a man like that alone.”

Sam says this not to Hanae, but rather to himself.

If Lise had not stopped him, he would have beaten him to death.

“Let’s go home now. The masters will be worried.”

“Right.”

If he could, he would have chased after him, beaten him up, and told him never to show his face in front of Lise again.

But he knows that Lise would not want Sam to do such a thing.

Above all, once his emotions were ignited, Sam wasn’t sure he could control himself.

(Just beating him to death isn’t enough, he’s scaring Lise-sama, I want to kill him.)

He doesn’t do so because this is a city and not a place for dueling.

As for Sam, he doesn’t mind being blamed a bit, but he doesn’t want to cause trouble for Lise, Hanae, and the Count Walker family who is taking care of him.

With more people to care for, he is acutely aware that he is more stuck than ever.

In the past, he would have indeed taken action without any worries.

“Sam, Hanae.”

“Yes.”

“Nn.”

“Thank you.”

“No, no.”

“No worries.”

Yeah…but, I’m sorry, I spoiled all the fun.”

“You don’t have to apologize, Lise.”

“That’s right.”

“I see… But I’m sorry.”

Lise apologizes, which she doesn’t have to do, and starts walking away without holding hands with Sam.

Sam and Hualien rush after her and call out to her, but Lise only gives empty replies.

In the end, even when they get to the mansion, her clouded face does not change, and she does not smile again that day.
