I Grabbed The Leash Of The Blind Beast - Chapter 13
Chapter 13
“I’ll take a look instead of the Grand Duke who can’t even see. Maybe the girl is aiming for your property.”
It was when Sabiel had just touched the curtains when suddenly….
TAK
Eleon grabbed his hand precisely.
Sabiel’s eyes widened.
“You really… … .”
“No, you can’t see her.”
Eleon dropped Sabiel’s hand violently.
“But I can stop your slow movements even with my eyes closed.”
“What do you mean?”
Sabiel twitched.
However, there were already quite a few people in the hallway.
It was a riot as they peered inside with curious eyes.
“Oh, I’m busy today, so I’ll just go home.”
Sabiel said to Emily.
“A man with no taste makes great effort to buy clothes. I hope you help him a lot.”
No taste.
Literally, it means to look.
Emily bowed her head politely in response.
“Even if you don’t have an eye for clothes, you have a lot of money, so there’s no problem.”
The people around became quiet.
Eleon said back that he earned his own money and what’s the use of doing this.
“Hahahaha. Yes, yes. You should earn as much as you can.”
Sabiel laughed out loud.
“I’ll be back next time.”
“Take care. Your Majesty the Crown Prince.”
Sabiel glared at Eleon once more before leaving.
“Even if you’re talented, the work must be difficult.”
“Thank you for your concern. Grand Duke.”
As if nothing had happened, Emily quickly took a bunch of summer laces fabrics and gave it to Eleon.
“These laces were brought by boat from the north.”
The wide thin lace was embroidered with various patterns with a rough texture.
“What kind of pattern is this?”
“It’s white lace with purple grapes and vines.”
“Purple.”
If you had red hair and blue eyes, this lace would suit you well.
“This will look good on her.”
“That’s right. It’s perfect for Miss Rona.”
Eleon smiled.
“Make a summer dress with this as well.”
Emily was overjoyed when he paid a huge amount in cash instead of bills. It was not long after that rumors began to spread about the wealth of the Grand Duke, who had not returned from the battlefield for the entire time after inheriting the Grand Duchy.
* * * * *
As they returned to the mansion, silence reigned in the carriage.
Neither Eleon, Bernard nor Rona spoke.
But Bernard and Rona were both cursing Sabiel, except for Eleon.
‘What’s wrong with that bastard?’
‘Calling the Crown Prince, that bastard. Miss Rona, well said.’
‘Ugh, I’m really pissed off. How is the Crown Prince better than Eleon? Except that his father is the emperor.’
Rona doesn’t hesitate to make remarks that could be taken as blasphemy against the Imperial Family.
‘He can’t even compare to the Grand Duke. He’s just a presence in the Imperial Palace.‘
Bernard participated in Rona’s blasphemy without blinking an eye.
The butler had a sad expression on his face.
‘A fool, who couldn’t even talk to him until His Highness was injured.’
‘Is he crazy? How can he do that to a sick person?’
‘If I think about the Empire’s future, there have been many times when I thought that it would be better for the Grand Duke to become the emperor.’
“Stop. Be quiet.”
Then Rona and Bernard kept their mouths shut.
“What are you two talking about?”
“It’s about the medicine.”
At Rona’s gaze, Bernard replied.
“Miss Rona said there was an herb that could Your Highness’s eyes.”
“Both of you treat me like an idiot.”
Eleon smiled bitterly.
“It is not a good idea to slander Sabiel because of me. The crime of blasphemy against the Imperial Family is not light. So don’t worry too much.”
Eleon’s calm expression was slightly worn.
It’s not the first time something like this has happened, and you can’t be angry every time.
The person who insults me has a higher status than you, so don’t go against it. I’m fine, so don’t do it.
“There’s no such thing.”
Eleon and the butler turned to her at the same time.
“I am a servant of the Grand Duke. If I had put on some clothes, I could have won.”
If she hadn’t been in her underwear, she would have jumped out immediately and punched the crown prince with her fist.
“Yes. If Miss Rona hadn’t been undressing, she would have definitely won.”
What is it, butler? That weak remark. Did you think I wouldn’t be able to use my fist?
Despite his doubts, Rona was satisfied to see that Eleon’s expression softened.
Soon the carriage arrived at the Grand Duke’s Mansion.
Just like yesterday, it was raining continuously today.
“I’ll bring an umbrella.”
“Rona, yesterday you got wet from the rain, so wait here.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
The butler ran towards the front door to get an umbrella.
As Bernard moved away, Eleon’s face darkened as if the lights had gone out.
“Sir Eleon. Are you feeling good?”
“I’m fine.”
Suddenly Eleon leaned towards her, who was sitting beside him.
Eleon’s forehead touched her shoulder.
“The floor is slippery because it rained.”
“That’s right.”
“I wasn’t leaning, it was because I slipped.”
Unexpectedly, Eleon began to cry. Her shoulders trembled lightly and wet with his tears.
* * * * *
After eating dinner, Eleon went to bed early.
Thanks to him, Rona was able to leave work quickly.
She sighed as she closed the door to his bedroom.
“Is he a Prince?”
Where is that person who seems to have been shot in the head by mistake?
She didn’t know what to do in her underwear. She was surprised when he approached to open the curtains.
How can such a rude and ignorant person be the heir of The Empire?
How could I be so unlucky? Seeing the prince, the future of the empire was very bright.
“Sabiel. Sabiel must be the second male lead.”
Also, they are said to be in the midst of a wedding with Karina, who is no longer the heroine.
“He must be such a playboy.”
Rona was so upset that she started plotting revenge against Sabiel.
After collecting all her salary, she will open a prosperous shop in the capital.
She will use all her money to get the right to enter and leave the Imperial Palace, no matter if she buys a title or which house she enters as an adopted daughter.
After that, she will go directly to the Imperial Palace, and will throw an envelope of money in the face of the Crown Prince and shout, ‘Please don’t appear in front of my child again.’
“Eleon. Hang in there. I’ll heal your eyes for sure.”
She made up her mind.
Rona felt something strangely uncomfortable.
What was it?
She felt like she had forgotten something very important.
“Oh my gosh! I’m going crazy.”
I had completely forgotten about the herbs that were blooming in the garden.
It was a lucky coincidence that the suspicious grass survived in the garden.
Because it’s normal for the gardener to remove unknown weeds.
However, when the elderly gardener became immobile due to his old age, his wife Niel took care of her husband and also took care of the gardens alone.
After all, guests stopped coming in and out, so only the garden in front of the main building was meticulously maintained and the other half neglected.
“Perhaps… … Maybe this will help you. You were really lucky. It is said that this flower withers when it rains and blooms only in the dry season.”
No matter how many times I thought about it, I couldn’t remember the name of the grass.
Aside from that, it would wither in the rain, but it rained yesterday and today.
Rona came to the garden every night.
But yesterday, she was locked up in the bathroom.
And today they met the crown prince in the dressing shop that she had forgotten.
Teary.
She suddenly felt like she was about to cry.
What if Eleon lost the chance to regain his sight because of her carelessness?
She would suffer from guilt for the rest of her life.
I’m having a hard time.
They get insults they don’t deserve, and they insist on trampling on those with bad hearts.
Rona fell down in front of the overgrown bush.
“Uh, what should I do?”
Tears welled up from Rona’s eyes.
The petals were falling from the coveted flower.
Rona went crazy the moment she saw the half-wilted petals falling.
The flower, which has a fading bright light as if it had some mysterious power, was half-flickering, as if it had been broken.
She instinctively felt that the flower would lose its medicinal effect when the flower’s light disappeared.
She immediately grabbed the grass and pulled it out.
Miraculously, the light did not disappear.
She quickly picked up the petals that had fallen to the floor, ran again through the rain, and entered through the back door of the kitchen.
“A pot.”
One big thing caught her eye.
She soon found a small pot she used to heat milk in the corner.
She put water in it, and tried to light the stove… … .
It was late, the kitchen was cold without a single fire.
“What should I do? What should I do?”
Rona tried to remain calm and immediately remembered Eleon’s room.
It had been raining continuously yesterday and today, and the weather was suddenly cold, so she remembered that the fireplace in Eleon’s bedroom was lit.
She ran into Eleon’s room, grabbing the pot of water and the grass she had dug up.
Eleon, who had been sleeping on the bed, woke up as Rona opened the door loudly.
“… … Rona?”
Without time to answer, Rona put the pot into the fireplace and waited anxiously for the water to heat up.
Soon, steam began to rise.
The flower in her hand was almost dead, and the light was flickering.
Rona’s heart was pounding.
She threw the grass from the roots to the fallen leaves into the water.
She put the pot back in the fireplace and let it boil some more.
What the hell am I worried about?
I was being paranoid, thinking about the temperature of the water, the parts that can be used for medicinal purposes, and how to care for the grass.
POP!
Suddenly, something exploded and Rona almost dropped the pot.
“This… … What is this?”
The herbs seemed to have melted without a trace.
However, the color of the medicine was strange.
When transferred to the cup, the black and thick-looking liquid dripped slowly.
The suspicious herbal tea didn’t look healthy at all, so Rona tried to sniff it.
“Ugh. cough.”
Rona couldn’t stand the pungent smell. She sneezed.
Can he eat this?
She was terrified.
It didn’t seem like she had made the right medicine.
Rona didn’t know what to do.
“What are you doing here?”
Eleon asked when he suddenly came up behind her back.
“I was going to make a medicinal tea.”
Suddenly, Rona’s eyes filled with tears.
“I think I messed it up… … .”
Rona felt like crying.
She resented Karina for breaking out of the original plot.
If Eleon’s eyes don’t heal, Rona will never be able to forgive her.
However, Eleon sat down next to her.
He carefully patted her arm.
Feeling the heat emanating from the cup in Rona’s hand, he placed his hand over her, which was holding her handle.
Rona burst into tears while Eleon sniffed the cup.
Don’t drink it, it’s a defective medicine.
It was then.
Eleon put his mouth on the cup and began to drink it without breathing.
“No. Sir Eleon! Don’t drink it!
