I'm Not Interested In The Main Characters-Chapter 5

Elysia lied in bed, looking at the ring with her arms outstretched.

She can’t believe he considered herself a dangerous person enough to prepare such a thing.

“What am I? A walking monster?”

The only thing she understood was him giving her a huge ring and telling her to look for him when she needs blood.

Don’t touch others and only drink his blood.

‘A monster... isn’t this wrong?’

She looked through the magic stone, and it seems pretty simple to use. Just inject magic into the magic stone.

Elysia’s body jumped up.

‘No, how did you know I could deal with magic?’

The only people who knew she was a sorcerer were her family and her teacher, Ramote.

Elysia curled her hair with her hands.

“Something’s definitely wrong.”

Cassian seemed to be the only one who could use the ring, excluding herself.

It was a waste to think about using expensive magic stones just to engrave this magic.

“I’m sure that old man will find some way to use this.”

Elysia laughed as she recalled her teacher, Ramote.

He said he would arrive in the capital soon, so he could meet her.

****

“Mister Ramote is here.”

“Take him to my room.”

Speak of the devil, he came to her the next day after she had thought of him.

She opened her eyes wide when she saw her teacher Ramote entering the room.

She saw a handsome man dressed up differently than usual.

The gray hair that had always been shaggy was neatly cut. He had a sharp jawline instead of a beard as if he shaved it.

Until now, because of the long beard, his image was fitting of a wizard.

“Old man. Why are you dressed up like that?”

“Stop with the old man. Where in this face is the old man?”

“The way you speak is like an old man, and what do you call him at his age if not an old man?”

Elysia’s words and actions toward Ramote, the only Archmage throughout the history of the continent, were extremely inappropriate.

The employees prepared teacups as if they were familiar with that.

Ramote was her magic teacher and the only one who knew that Elysia was not a person in this world.

Not long after she possessed this body, she met Ramote while collecting information on the species.

The two quarreled with each other over rare books, but while Ramote took his eyes off it for a moment, Elysia took the books and ran away.

Then, how he followed her to the mansion.

It was a time when Elysia herself couldn’t even feel that her body was becoming a vampire, but when Ramote first noticed the fact, their relationship began.

“You should’ve done this earlier. This looks much nicer. Our old man is also handsome.”

Elysia laughed playfully as she touched Ramote’s hair.

Ramote sat across from Elysia with a dissatisfied face.

His blue eyes were sharp looking at Elysia while raising his glasses.

“You, tsk... This face... You have to keep your eye in check.”

Ramote frowned his eyebrows and stared at her red eyes.

There was a clear difference between the atmosphere when he met Elysia last time.

It was obvious that ordinary humans would be fascinated when they meet their eyes, fascinated by that helpless look.

“I’m sorry I’m not in the habit of controlling it yet.”

“It’s a relief that it can be controlled. It seems that the unstable soul is gone too.”

Elysia shrugs. The word ‘relief’ doesn’t suit her at the moment.

“Old man... I had an accident.”

Elysia was about to cry and confessed about what had happened.

Except for spending one night with Cassian.

“You’ve been making a lot of noise, but that’s just what happened. That’s good.”

“What should I do? If I just... get rid of him.”

Elysia eyes glistened with a grim face.

Ramote opened his mouth with a snort.

“You? It won’t work against him. He doesn’t look like a real person.”

“The Duke of Esteban?”

(T/N: *dun* *dun*!! A reader actually theorized that the Duke of Esteban is a vampire! Great guess! Let’s see what he is really~)

Ramote nodded.

The magic that Elysia has achieved over the past three years has been great.

Her body was originally a body with good mana affinity.

Usually, if it was felt that one had some talent, they would be assistant wizards, and there were very few people who reached that level.

Elysia was in that very small number.

As the body became a vampire as well as her talent, the skill and speed of dealing with magic were out of comparison with others.

Not long ago, her body was in an unstable state, so she had problems such as burning a mansion while trying to make a small fireball.

‘Somehow... I still think that’s going to be a problem.’

Even though she’s not in an unstable state anymore, Ramote thought she might not be able to control the power.

If the magic formula was compared to mathematics, then she’d still be at the elementary school level.

“As you said, I have registered for the tower. You can do whatever you want, subjugation, or whatever.”

“Thank you, old man.”

The fact that he would register as a wizard belonging to a tower, would reveal that she was a wizard.

In the meantime, she didn’t want to stand out too much. Also, she wanted to avoid helping Revos as much as possible.

Obviously, it would have been faster to sit him in the place of the crown prince if she used Ramote.

“By the way, do you have to reveal that you are a wizard?”

“You don’t know. I won’t get old anymore, so I should do this.”

Those who reached a certain level by mastery of magic aged very slowly.

The better the skill, the better the magic and the greater the speed difference. 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

In Ramote’s case, he was already over 100 years old, but he doesn’t look a day over 20.

Of course, there is no ambiguity to say that she has reached that point.

Elysia’s magic had a destructive power that looked like so to others.

“Do you intend to attend subjugation?”

“I don’t know. If you attend the subjugation, don’t you have to stay with the Duke of Esteban?”

It wasn’t long after the long monster subjugation was over, but regular subjugation was going to continue.

It would be enough just to register as an official wizard in the tower, but she was wondering if she would let him know by showing that she could use magic.

There was no better way than to witness it with his own eyes.

“Now it will be known that you are my student, so you should study more.”

“Another nagging. But where are you going today?”

“Dylan Kingdom.”

“Huh? I have my father and brother there too. If you meet them, please say hello.”

Elycia embraced Ramote.

Ramote shook his head and patted her back with an awkward hand.

“Huh. Didn’t I tell you not to hug me like this?”

“Ah. You like it. Think of it as hugging a daughter-like disciple.”

“I’m not even married, but I have a daughter! I’ll see you later, so try to solve it with the Duke of Esteban.”

Elysia nodded and stepped out to see him off.

Upon returning to the room, Elysia tilted her head to see the box the maid Gray was putting on the table.

Two letters were also placed next to the box.

One came from Revos, and the other was a navy envelope, so it seemed like a letter from Cassian.

Elysia tore Revos’ envelope and picked up the navy envelope.

“...?”

In the letter, it was written that she would attend tomorrow’s banquet as his partner. In this state, attending a banquet with Cassian would be like proving that the rumors are true.

Elysia’s hand, holding the letter paper, trembled.

She put down the letter paper and reached out to the box.

The box was also a glossy navy color to let her know who sent it.

When she opened the lid of the box, unwrapping the ribbon with her hair color, a flat velvet case and a piece of clothing that looked like a dress were placed under it.

Inside the velvet case were necklaces and bracelets.

The choker-style necklace was studded with tiny diamonds like a lace pattern. The bracelet was also of the same shape.

‘What kind of gem is this.....’

The jewel of a strange color, not exactly purple and was oddly shaped, gently emitted red light from the inside, as if it were making its own light.

Since she was looking at it for a while, Gray approached as she was curious.

“This is...”

“Ah...! Lady, this is...!”

“The Guardian’s Eye?”

“Well, I think it’s right.”

No, she doesn’t think so... but why would it be the gem?

The Guardian’s Eye is treated as a holy object.

According to what she heard, it was clearly said that the original stone was kept at the temple.

A jewel worth the price indeed.

She thought it was easier to just think that it wasn’t the Guardian’s Eyes.

Elysia put down the necklace with trembling hands and looked at her dress.

The black dress in the form of a tube top had a deep V-shaped chest and a clear back.

There wasn’t much decoration, and very small diamond-like belts were embedded only near the waist.

Since it was a reddish material, it was an excellent choice for the purpose of making the necklace stand out.

Is it okay to receive such a gift?

Elysia frowned and fell into agony.

We’re meeting because I am threatened anyway, but what if I get too much?

****

Elysia was under Grey’s hand all day long and got a massage.

“No, you usually leave it alone. What’s wrong with you today?”

“My lady is such a baby. It’s an official meeting for the first time with your new lover, so of course, you need management!”

Gray flashed her eyes and sat Elysia at the vanity.

New lover. Are the employees already thinking of it that way?

When she meets Cassian today she wants to ask what he was thinking.

The makeup was not thick, but the lips were painted red.

The hair was curled up with a fine wave. There was no old feeling at all due to the fine hair on the forehead line and the baby hair falling in front of the ears.

“Huh... Miss. Come to think of it, I haven’t checked if the dress size is correct.”

Gray continued to apologize.

Elysia, looking at her dress, shrugged.

“The last time I received it, it was just right, right?”

“Yeah, yeah! Try it on quickly.”

As expected, it fit perfectly as if it were a custom dress.

As it turned out, the tailor did not pass on her measurements.

If so, then that meant he figured out his measurements overnight.

When she even thought that it could be because he touched her that way, her face heated up.

When she finished putting on the jewelry, she heard the butler’s voice with a knock.

“My Lady, the Duke of Esteban is here.”
