The Silence cast tranquility within the grand Hall where eugene had sat with the main family ; No one spoke a single word, not a single reaction but completely dead silence because of melzri true feelings and hidden emotions for eugene that's they had not seen before.
Especially Sienna, Anise & Kristina and evel ciel wore a guilty and sad expression it's true they want to live a peaceful and happy life with eugene. they each want to marry him and create a family but not like this. It's doesn't matter to their feelings what about noir? did she not want to marry him.
how it's possible to live in peace when someone sacrificing her life for them. they don't thin to ever forgive themselves if they became selfish here just for meager feelings for him.
Melzri took a deep sighed and glanced at everyone for a moment to see thier faces and said in a polite tone " you maybe have... many future plans and desires. I hope you achieve them and lead the way future generations of Lionhearts to a better future and build strong and sweet memories with your friends, family and your future wives and... In future if your descendants or heirs could born. I hope that your heirs also became a trustworthy and talented person like you but not arrogant type.. I didn't like that okay. . !
" Melzri.. what are " Eugene tried to speak.
But melzri ignored him and continue her words " My eugene please I requesting you forgot about her highness and me that we didn't exist... please leave as alone don't indulge in our cursed fate.
There is nothing you"ll gain to achieved. In our life there is only pain, suffering and despair. you don't need to be share same fate as us, Me and her highness wanted this and that's true each word her highness said to you is just a lie that she free from her fate. she already saved you from your fate and do her last desire for you but she can't save herself from her fate. "
After a pround silenced eugene steadied his emotions and stared at her with sad eyes.
" is this your words or noir? I didn't know that you cared for me that much " Eugene said with a hollow laugh.
" It's ours and fine... I admit I cared for you not just because of her highness but this is my own and genuine feelings for you, why want another despair and war?... don't you get tired of it. you want peace didn't you then why ask such pathetic questions? " Melzri said with a twisted expression.
" Enough of your nonsense already and how could I live in peace? when you and noir engage in war fighting against those fucking outer beings? do you think it possible now. " Eugene shook his head and said with slight frustration.
" That's the reason me and her highness didn't want to tell you in anything because we already predicted your reaction, At first we going to leave this world and create our own myth holy ground and never look back but her highness hesitated do that because she want a bit time with you but that also not possible now " Melzri snorted in disbelief.
" Goddess melzri! Noir had said she'll make dinner for Lionhearts today is that also a lie? " Seinna asked with slight hesitation.
melzri didn't reply not even glanced at her and settled her gaze down.
" Hmm... that's right seinna she's not here and she had lied to us that dinner will be prepared by her that's just a manipulative tactics isn't it Melzri? " Eugene said instead of her with a smirk.
Melzri stared at him with a trembling eyes she didn't know what to say to defend her highness and her also, so she just bite her lips.
" Melzri! where is she? and I didn't want a single lie got it. I already heard enough of manipulative words, do you even asked me what I want? " Eugene glared at her said in sharp tone.
" Manipulative? Quite a nice way to judge us isn't it? " she snapped and said after" that's right her highness is not here she's already gone to meet with seven pillars for a important meeting and she disappeared after hot springs bath with us " Melzri clicked her tongue in disappointment.
" Meeting with seven pillars? did something serious happen " Eugene questioned.
" Not yet but maybe in future... it's a just a meeting with the seven pillars because there are many responsibility her highness needed to fulfill, save her worshippers who are on verge of death or in deep slumber " Melzri firmly stated.
I didn't think that's only the reason. you're still hiding something from me Right? " Eugene asked with narrowed eyes in interest.
" I already said didn't I? don't indulge in our matters don't you listen what I said a moment ago, this isn't your war and you don't need to do anything " Melzri tried to pressure him.
" you're not the only one who want to save this world? And in which sense this isn't my war? " Eugene declared firmly.
" why the hell you're so stubborn and idiotic? didn't you thought about others who cared for you " Melzri retorted and stared at him with wry eyes.
" If you really cared for me? tell me everything that you know " Eugene said, and then asked curiously " and what kind of feelings do you have for me? ".
" hmm... feelings for you? do you thought If a woman cared for a man it's simply because she loved him or had some special attachments?, it's didn't matter in my case... it's respect what I feel for you. if I want to revealed who I deeply loved? it's her highness and caera only " Melzri replied without any hesitation.
" Respect you say?" Eugene repeated and in irritated tone " Fine... whatever you felt for me it's didn't Matter to me it's not I could ever understand you and how could understand when I never understand noir what she truly want from me. Love? Care? Sympathy? or understanding. " He hesitated and scratch his right cheek fierecly in which noir had kissed him And then said " if she really loved me then she never had hide anything from me.
𝘎𝘳𝘬. . 𝘎𝘳𝘬𝘬𝘬.
Eugene gritted his teeth fiercely with bloodshot eyes and blood dripped from his cheek, he continuously scratched with disdain and great rage, blood continue to dripped from his cheek and splash over his shirt with bloodstained.
Vermouth and others stared at him with wide open eyes with pure disbelief, they can't understand why he hurting himself instantly could this because of anger? or frustration on noir they don't know the reason.
" Eugene what the hell are you doing ?" Sienna shouted with a horrible expression.
" Hamel! what you"ll get to hurt yourself. noir didn't said to anything to you because of a special reason, I'm sure of it " Anise face twisted in a scowl.
"Sir Eugene! Please don't hurt yourself and I'm also with Sister if lady noir didn't love then why could she always go such lengths to protect you " Kristina admitted with a worried expression.
Before anyone could say more and make a move towards eugene. Melzri stand up from her seat and walked over to eugene with a bitter lips and tearfur expression on her face.
She hold his wrist to stop himself hurting anymore and she sit closely to eugene and she cared gently that bloodstained cheek and Eugene's blood covered her palms. she looked calmly into his eyes tried to read his mind and understand him better.
Eugene just glared at her face that's was filled with awe and sympathy towards him or some strange emotions that's he don't want to understand because it's ridiculous to even thought.
" her highness will be greatly saddened by your actions that's why she can't do that what I can do. don't you think hurting yourself will hurt me & her highness because she's watching everything within my eyes " Melzri said in soft tone.
" what? she's watching everything what had happened now? " Eugene startled by her response.
