Chapter 79

Chapter 79

“I heard that things with Sir Ramote are not going well these days.”

At Ryan’s words, Elysia nodded her head. She thought he would soon find the answer, although it wasn’t easy.

She got a sense of it to some extent, but she didn’t know the letters used in black magic, so she was blocked there. Thinking that if she gathered all the magic circles in the things Peloit had left behind and looked at them, she would be able to interpret them to some extent, but she was mistaken.

“Even though it was more difficult than I thought, where did he use the letters?”

She ruffled her hair roughly and sighed.

Even though she had been spending a lot of time studying magic, now that it was black magic, she could not do anything… Even Old Man was groaning?

“I know that black magic was originally used by demons.”

“Yes.”

Elysia furrowed her brow as she watched Bug slam his face with Der’s fist. Wondering if even his nose bone would go out like that, Elysia flinched and tried to get her body up, though she stopped at Ryan’s words.

“Then, isn’t that a text used by demons?”

“Well?”

Even if she simply thought about it, it didn’t make any sense at all. However, if that was the case, maybe Old Man would have known…

Ryan tilted her head and opened his mouth.

“If not… Do I have to write that letter to be able to use magic?”

“Umm? …I never thought of that.”

Elysia, wanting to give it a try at Ryan’s words, went straight to the main building.

* * *

She lightly knocked on and went straight into the office. Although Cassian used to tell her not to knock because he noticed she had come before he heard a knock anyway, it was something that had already become a habit of hers.

As if he knew she would come again, he took his eyes off the paper and saw the eyes staring right at him.

“You look handsome today.”

“Is it a temptation?”

“No.”

Elysia grinned and walked over to the desk.

Unlike his neat desk, her desk was littered with various documents. She made a lot of calculations and took notes, so when she was told not to clean for a while, it was like this.

The next moment, she flipped through the papers with a slightly puzzled expression.

“Found it.”

As she placed the paper on which the magic circles that Peloit had left behind and the black magic circle that Ramote had brought side by side, she could suddenly feel a hand wrapped around her waist from behind.

“…What?”

“Wait.”

If the letters to be written in the magic circle don’t have to appear in the data…

Elysia moved her finger as she remembered Peloit’s use of magic. The smell of fishy blood was overlaid around the faintly leaking mana along the fingers.

“Oh?”

“Wife.”

After realizing that her magic had succeeded, he grabbed her wrist a little tighter. At the same time, a lump of water formed over his head.

Cassian, who was suddenly struck by lightning, smiled bitterly and ruffled his wet hair. It wasn’t much, yet she could see his hair and face getting wet. Elysia glanced at him with menacingly gleaming eyes and gently avoided his gaze.

“Obviously, you would have spoken to me before trying.”

“Uh… I didn’t know it was going to happen.”

Seeing Cassian’s angry face, she stopped to apologize. Should she dry his hair or tell him to wash it or should she apologize first…?

Meanwhile, his wet eyelashes kept attracting attention. As Cassian came one step closer, she stepped back from him and sat on the chair she had pushed behind her. Then, he brushed his hair and raised the tail of his mouth.

Elysia was startled by this and she hurriedly controlled her expression, though she had already been caught.

“Even if you look at me like that, I’m not going to do it.”

“Isn’t that what it is?”

Elysia opened her mouth while crying at the cold gaze.

“Sorry.”

“Stay still.”

“Uh?”

Cassian knelt down on one of his knees and sat on the floor and grabbed her ankle.

As she flinched and tried to slip away from his hand, his hand gripping her ankle grew stronger. Without hesitation, his hand slid down her stockings, taking her shoes off. Stockings that had been curled up by his long fingers fell to the floor.

“Uhh…”

“Quiet.”

Elysia’s eyes frowned as Cassian bit her toe. The sound of him kissing his lips on the gaps between her toes was getting wetter and wetter. Meanwhile, his hand lifting the hem of her skirt was relentless.

A tingling tickled, mild stimulation followed. It looked like he was trying to punish her.

“Cassian. I’m wrong…”

At the sound of the knocking, her words were cut off.

“Madam, this is Philip.”

Furrowing her brow, Elysia was not ready to answer. When she looked at Cassian, she found a smirk.

“Tell him to come in.”

Seeing him trying to get his body up, she opened her mouth, exhaling the breath she had been holding back.

“Come in.”

As soon as the door opened, Cassian lifted her body slightly and pulled her closer to the edge of the chair. Elysia, who was barely sitting on the edge, was startled to see him burying his lips again as he bowed his head.

“…Wait!”

“Yes? Madam…?”

Philip approached Elysia with a puzzled expression.

There was no mercy in Cassian’s hand pulling up the hem of her skirt. There was a wall behind her desk, and even when Philip approached, they were only facing each other, so they wouldn’t be detected.

“Ah…”

“Are you sick?”

If only Elysia could hold back her voice.

Cassian draped her legs over his shoulders before lowering his head and gently stroked her with the palm of his hand as if to soothe her stiffened body. It was not a soothing touch, but rather, a touch that made it hotter.

Elysia bit her lip.

As his tongue pressed down somewhere, her hand gripped the armrest in her chair tightens.

“No… Philip. Is it urgent?”

“This is a letter from Duke Lowell.”

Elysia barely reached out her hand and took the letter.

Fortunately, there were no other documents in Philip’s hand. There seemed to be no more business. Because Cassian had been struck by lightning from her, the place where she came into contact with him was hopelessly wet.

Biting her lip, she was hoping that Philip would leave soon.

“I had something to do with His Excellency, but he is not in the office…”

Her face grew paler with the fear that Philip’s chatter might begin. When she stretched her hand under her and tried to push Cassian, he buried his face even deeper.

“Philip. Now…”

“Yes?”

Because Cassian’s lips kept in the same place over and over again, her legs trembled at the deepening kiss.

“…Get out.”

“Madam, are you really all right? Your complexion is not good.”

Elysia barely caught her breath and opened her mouth.

“It’s okay.”

“I see. Shall I ask them to bring some tea?”

The question was because she drank tea when she was in the office as a habit.

Suddenly, the long fingers pushed the thin fabric away and dug into it. She clenched her legs, which she had unintentionally placed over Cassian’s shoulders, but to no avail.

Elysia shook her head towards Philip. It was because if she opened her mouth, it seemed that something other than an answer to Philip would come out.

One became two, and three became three.

Eventually, she sighed in relief as Philip nodded his head and stepped towards the door of the office.

“Oh, dear! Madam.”

As if Philip had forgotten something, he turned his body again and walked over to Elysia. Seeing that, she clenched her fists tightly, cleared her breath, and opened her mouth.

“…Philip, I’m sorry, I’ll call you later.”

She was begging him to go out.

Puzzled, Philip tilted his head a little and left the office.

Elysia’s body felt weak as she saw the door closed.

“…Uhk, stop it—”

Even though she bent her torso and twisted her body to lower her legs off his shoulders, Cassian lifted his head and licked his lips. He even provocatively licked his fingers. Contrary to his behavior, his face was expressionless.

“…Are you really angry?”

There was also a bit of resentment because she did not know that black magic would really succeed.

Cassian grabbed Elysia’s hand as she lowered her skirt.

“Me, to you?”

Giving a twisted smile, he then let out a long breath.

“I wish I could.”

As he got up, he took Elysia and sat down in the chair. As usual, she frowned at the thought that the beginning would be difficult.

Cassian grabbed her waist and lifted it slightly, so the tip was barely touching, although he didn’t seem to want to move. He said he wouldn’t do it, and he held her posture and questioned her. ‘What is this,’ expression was revealed on Elysia’s face.

“Be patient with you.”

Cassian grabbed her slender waist and pressed it down.

“….”

Elysia’s head tilted behind.

“It cannot be possible. Hoo…”

He took a deep breath as the tightness tightened around him, and he hugged Elysia’s waist and made her lie down on the desk. He said, biting her ear, “I feel like I want to lock you up somewhere.”

“Heuhk… Cassian.”

“You are more sensitive than usual. You don’t want to let me go.”

At those words, more power entered her body.

Cassian clenched his teeth and increased his speed. At that moment, Elysia, who felt someone approaching the office, twisted her body.

“Your Excellency, it’s Bug.”

At his words, Cassian smiled and moved his body without answering.

Elysia hurriedly stretched out her hand. She tried to cast a spell on the lock but failed because he abruptly moved tenaciously.

“No one comes in without permission, you know?”

“Still—Uhk”

Hurriedly buried her lips on the back of her hand, she was trying to contain her voice.

Cassian leaned over and placed his finger on Elysia’s lips. The sound seemed to leak out of the fingers that were squeezing her lips.

“Don’t do that.”

Uttering so, he then laughed mischievously. Cassian raised the corners of his lips as he ruffled Elysia’s hair that had spilled onto the desk.

“Then, what?”

Was he going to make her make a sound…? Bug was still in front of the door.

Cassian raised his eyebrows with that thought.
