The Genius and Calamity of the Villainous Noble: A Brilliant Prodigy Unaware of Their Reincarnation as the Game's Antagonist Defies the Scenario and Dominates with Talent and Hard Work - Chapter 1.35
After defeating the Chaos Dragon, I hurried back to my room at the Reinhardt Ducal estate. Without wasting a moment, I quickly changed and prepared myself to head to the underground chamber.
“Alright, I’m heading out.”
Marina had followed me back in a rush, despite knowing nothing about the situation or why I was in such a hurry. She had simply trusted me.
Smiling, I turned to her and spoke.
“Have a safe trip, Lord Ark.”
She saw me off.
“Yeah. I love you.”
As I stepped out of the room, I made sure to say those words to her.
Ever since that day—the day Marina came to me as my fiancée—I had always made it a habit to tell her I love you whenever I left.
“……”
And yet, this time…
The response she always gave me—the words I love you in return—
Never came.
For a brief moment, I found it strange. But I had spent my entire life maneuvering in the shadows, all for this day. I pushed that small unease to the back of my mind and proceeded toward the underground chamber—never realizing what that silence truly meant.
