I Married the Strongest Magician - Chapter 3

On the day I was kicked out of my house, a carriage carrying Lord Rolodroa arrived to pick me up.

“Hello,” he greeted, his beautiful blonde hair swaying just a little.

“…Hello to you too,” I replied.

But that was a lie. “To you too”? What was I even agreeing to? I was supposed to be…the next head of the Lysaria family.

And yet…

“Pfft… Hahaha…”

Lord Rolodroa began to laugh right after helping me into the carriage.

“Did something strike you as funny? ” I asked sharply, glaring at him.

“Your face says it all: ‘Marry someone like him? You must be joking.’

Well, that makes sense. The Lysaria family has long served the Emperor as healers and has built up a massive fortune. Being removed from your role as successor must’ve been a huge shock.

Am I wrong? ”

“…It’s almost as if you can read my mind,” I said, coldly.

“And let’s not forget—you’re now being married off to a knight with no land and no noble title.
All I’ve got is a position as vice commander of the Mage Order.

Your family is probably laughing behind your back, thinking how pitiful you must look.”

Lord Rolodroa kept talking, completely unbothered by my glare.

“You might want to stop talking.

For your own good,” I warned, lifting my right hand slightly.

“And on top of that,” he kept going, “you don’t love me at all.

So what’s it like, I wonder? Sleeping with a man you don’t even love?

I mean, I’m not a woman, so even without love—”

Right then, I shot a fireball at him from my hand.

It was low heat—just enough to burn his clothes—but it was a cursed fireball, something that should never disappear…

But—!

He knocked it away with his fist. He smashed it into the back of the carriage seat and completely destroyed it.

No way…!?

My cursed fireball…!?

He didn’t use water or ice magic. He just crushed it with his bare hand!?

Impossible…

“You’re more of a wild horse than a beauty with brains, it seems… he said calmly.

Then he leaned back into the seat and closed his eyes, and so our political marriage began.

At that time, I still didn’t know much about this man named Rolodroa.
