I'm Trying to End This Possession

“The carriage attack, it was your staged play, wasn’t it?”

 

At that moment, Ignis’s face froze. The expression on his face suggested he never imagined I would know.

 

I found it amusing. Seriously, everyone must think of me as a fool. Well, it was working in my favor now.

 

“It’s a bit funny to see you putting on a wounded expression when we’ve both deceived each other, isn’t it?”

 

“What wound, f*ck…” Ignis’s lips twisted into a sneer. “I’m pissed off because I was deceived by someone like you.”

 

“Would you feel a bit better if I apologized for deceiving you?” I smiled as if I pitied him. “But Lord Ignis, you should really understand your place. Isn’t it more ridiculous to think I would like you?”

 

With every word I spat out, Ignis’s grip on my hair tightened. But I didn’t stop. In fact, I needed to provoke him more.

 

“You were the one who first threatened me with scripture to marry you. I don’t want to live with such a lowly person. Do you think I’m crazy enough to live with a horny b*stard like you?”

 

This was a very personal and emotional statement. But it couldn’t be helped. I was quite upset at the moment. You deceive me, but now dare to give me that look?

 

The embrace within the carriage. I almost believed it was genuine.

 

Ignis was just another Carl Windsor. Pretending to care while hiding filthy intentions. Such a trashy person.

 

“Rather than chasing after you as you wish…” I glanced at the scripture he was holding. “I thought it better to endure this disgusting time and take the Scripture for myself.”

 

“…”

 

“Isn’t this self-defense?”

 

At that moment, Ignis burst out laughing. “Listen to you. You’re not just any ordinary b*tch.”

 

“I told you. I curse a lot internally.”

 

“Yeah, yeah, this is much better. I prefer this.”

 

Ignis’s grip on my hair became even rougher, causing me to let out a short scream of pain.

 

“So? What do you think I’ll do now?”

 

Tap, tap, Ignis tapped my cheek with the scripture.

 

“You planned to run away with this, huh? Too bad I woke up early and caught you.”

 

I laughed with my eyebrows furrowed. “What is this?”

 

“…What?”

 

“This isn’t a scripture, isn’t it?”

 

“…”

 

What does she mean? Ignis stiffened his face, looked at me, and then hurriedly opened the scripture to check.

 

“…”

 

And he saw it. It was blank paper. The scripture had been wiped clean of any text. Ignis flipped through the next page. It was blank as well. The same goes for the next page and the page after that. Unable to contain his frustration, he flipped through them all at once.

 

“Ha!”

 

All empty pages. Not a single letter remained. Only smudged ink stains.

 

“What did you do?”

 

“Does it matter what I did?” I tidied my disheveled hair and spoke calmly as I stood up. “They say the original scripture was written with the blood of God, the Holy Blood. So that not a single letter would be erased, and it would be passed down forever, even after thousands or even tens of thousands of years.”

 

This was also mentioned in the copies of the scripture.

 

Seeing Ignis’s dazed face, I kindly explained. “Whatever I did, if this were truly written with the Holy Blood, it wouldn’t have been erased.”

 

“…”

 

“Unless it was made with ink by humans.”

 

Thud. The scripture finally dropped from Ignis’s hand. Now, his face was serene. Not a trace of emotion left.

 

“Yeah. This is fake. You’re right. Getting caught like this is embarrassing.” He muttered emotionlessly.

 

“…!”

 

My body was suddenly lifted up. Ignis had picked me up and slung me over his shoulder like a sack!

 

“What are you doing?! Put me down!”

 

“Shut up.”

 

Smack! He spanked me, making me tremble with humiliation.

 

This man was unbelievable!

 

“So what if the scripture is fake? Did you think I would say, ‘Oh, I’m sorry. I’m a scammer, excuse me,’ and leave?” Ignis started walking towards the window without any hesitation.

 

“Ignis! Put me down!”

 

But Ignis seemed determined to run away with me, showing no hesitation.

 

As he headed towards the window. Bang! Something flew like an arrow, narrowly missing Ignis’s face, and slammed into a pillar next to him.

 

“…”

 

It was a cane. The gentleman’s cane, which had split the wall and embedded itself, trembled from the impact.

 

Ignis slowly turned his head.

 

“Put her down.”

 

Viego, standing by the door, spoke quietly with the same tone and expression he used in the meeting room when he ordered him to lower his legs.

 

“Put her down.”

 

“…”

 

This time, it was different. Ignis didn’t put me down.

 

Instead of repeating himself, Viego calmly aimed a silver gun. He spoke as if fulfilling a duty. “If you don’t put her down, I will fire.”

 

“…”

 

Ignis knew. That guy would hit exactly where he aimed. But still…

 

Ignis walked towards the window. Immediately, bang! A bullet lodged in his shoulder.

 

“F*ck, that hurts.” He said and walked again.

 

This time, a bullet hit his forearm. Bang! Blood splattered. It hurt.

 

“Are you insane?!” As I screamed, Ignis laughed.

 

Maybe. Maybe he’s crazy. Since earlier, his head had been burning hot, making it hard to think. Even the bullets lodged in his shoulder and forearm felt like someone else’s problem.

 

Meanwhile, Viego had accurately assessed the opponent’s condition. Right now, Ignis de Windsor had lost his judgment. He had lost his rationality completely. He didn’t even think to dodge the bullets and was entirely obsessed with the idea of kidnapping Danae.

 

But Viego was different. He had no intention of killing a man who had once been his uncle, not in his own home, not with his own hands. Not at all. Bang, bang! He aimed more efficiently. Both ankles, the Achilles tendons. Finally, Ignis collapsed.

 

“Seize him.”

 

At Viego’s nod, the guards rushed forward, overpowering the blood-soaked man and restraining him.

 

“Don’t resist, Lord Ignis!”

 

“We’ll tie your arms!”

 

Indeed, Ignis no longer resisted. With his cheek pressed against the floor, he only glared at me with fierce eyes. It was chillingly intense. I involuntarily stepped back.

 

As Ignis was forcibly lifted by the guards, he chuckled. “Danae.” Then he glared at me with boiling hatred. “This isn’t the end. Darling, you know that, right? We promised to run away together.” He laughed and rambled. “So just wait patiently, you f*cking b*tch. And don’t cheat on me, got it?”

 

Crazy… This man made terrifying threats.

 

My voice trembled without even needing to act. “Please, don’t do this. I’m scared.”

 

Ignis burst into a contemptuous laugh. “Hahaha! Hey, Viego! Your sister has grown up a lot, huh?” Dragged away by the guards, he shouted.

 

Viego ignored him completely, approaching the wall to grab his gentleman’s cane and attempting to pull it out.

 

“Ah, I’ve seen how much she’s grown! In bed!”

 

For a moment, Viego’s movement stopped.

 

“Man, she was amazing! Right? I tell you, she was the best out of all the women I’ve slept with!”
