My Villain Became An Obsessive Man

Chapter 4

This day and the day after this.
The Archduke had all his three meals and dessert time with me , at spite of my insistence.
Thanks to eating well, I gained weight.
Eileen’s body was so skinny, but I almost got it fat. Why is the food here so delicious?

I said that I was full just by watching my favourite eat, but when he tried to feed me, I had to eat hard. In fact Both of them have smooth faces, so it makes you think who is the kidnapper and who is the prisoner.

By the way, today is the day when the soldiers have extensive practice.
The training place is the front yard of the mansion. In the original work, there was no mention of the kidnapping place, but perhaps it was a secluded rural village in grand duchy. Since it was in countryside, the the space was very large.

Training seemed to continue like everyday, except for eating something or simulating between his subordinates, but this time, Archduke Russlo said that he would attend in person.

“I’ll go for a while.”

After breakfast, the Archduke went down to the yard after leaving a word.
He took me to a place where I could see the training ground, as I insisted on looking around. It was a small room on the third floor of the mansion, and when I sat in a chair on the terrace, I looked down at the training ground.

“Wow! There are so many.”

In the sunshine, he raised his hand to make a shade on his face. Hundreds of soldiers stood in line in the large space.
Come to think of it, my wrist has not been tied like the very beginning. In this mansion, where soldiers were shimmed, they seemed to be convinced that they would not be threatened by the fragile aristocracy lady.

Naturally, I didn’t even dream of running away. This place with my favourite is like a paradise on earth, where else could I go?

Chaeng, Chaeng, Chaeng ( sfx of swords clashing together)

It was then. The sound of swords clashing in the training ground resonated into the air.

I hurriedly looked down, the soldiers were paired and aiming at each other. It seemed that the soldiers were sparring one-on-one while taking turns.

“Oh my god!”

From my mouth, admiration broke out.
He stands out among the many soldiers, Archduke Raymond Russlo.

Even today, with bewitching black hair and blue eyes, he was one of the best people in the world.

Today’s Archduke wore an all-black training suit instead of a red uniform, and was armed with a chic charm. He was, of course, actually wearing simple armour and armed with a scabbard at his waist. 💝

As he drew his sword from its scabbard, his blade gleamed in the sunlight. Perhaps because of his easy-to-move clothes, a uniquely lively energy emanated from his body.
Ah. You’re dazzling, but please don’t shine more.
I squinted.
The Archduke began to swing his sword in a brilliant manner.

swish.

A vein stood in his hand as he gripped his sword, and the muscles in his arm swelled. His thighs, which moved minutely while wary of his opponent, were united with strong muscles.

“Ahh.”

I stopped and let out a groan.

(T/L: this is so embarrassing god😩)

It’s such a pity that I’m only looking at that with my own eyes. recording… I have to record… !
But this is a novel world. Naturally, there were no smartphones or camcorders.
I screamed while grabbing my hair, and I had to stomp my feet in sadness.

Why is it like this? If I filmed that scene and uploaded a video, the world would unite and go wild, and the shouts of the people would have shot up into space and reached Mars.

Of course, All fans will make a fuss, and below that, there will be a lot of scolding comments.
Argh! My nose is bleeding!
This is the coolest thing in the world.
He’s so good-looking, and he’s good with swords. What can’t our Raymond not do?

Our Archduke who can do anything.♡

A sense of Pride welled up and warmed my heart. It’s a pity that this scene can’t be shared, but I won a victory from inside with the logic that it’s not a waste because I can see it.
A long sword cut through the air and cut through the wind. The sword, which moves freely in the hand, pierces through without missing the opponent’s gap.

“Straighten your shoulders and straighten your sword.”

“Ugh.”

“If you back away like that, you will only give the enemy a chance.”

“so… … sorry.”

The subordinate, who was struggling to follow the movements, was being scolded by the Archduke . He lowered his sword and shouted at all the soldiers.

““It’s not even close. If you don’t do it right, you’ll skip dinner.”

“okay!”

Oh wow Look at our Archduke ‘s charisma. So cool.
As I watched, saliva almost came out of my mouth.
According to the author, his swordsmanship skills were one of the best in the empire. His skill was outstanding, and his ability to exhaust his opponents, backed by his strength, was amazing.
However, he lived with half of his skills hidden because he could threaten the emperor’s position at any time due to his status as a Archduke . Like a tiger crouching in the bush waiting for the right time to hunt its prey.

I was afraid to miss even one, so I watched his every move. At this moment, I felt like selling my soul to the devil if I could implant a camera in my eyes, but if I sold my soul, I wouldn’t be able to see him, so let’s just stop.
Training went by in a flash. Watching my favourite all night was not enough, but the soldiers who had been overworked for nearly two hours were covered in sweat and exhausted.

On the other hand, the Archduke was fine, only sweating a little. He was blessed and born with good physical strength.
He was wiping his forehead with a towel handed to him by his subordinate.
ah. It was a nice feeling.
My legs gave out and I sat down in a chair. It seems that I have been struggling quite a bit for two hours. The drowsiness you feel after finishing a workout hit me hard.

Originally, I would have go back and look at the video I took…… I felt a little empty, but I’m not an idol fan anymore. As usual, I decided to replay it in my head.
maybe 3 minutes passed.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard, and the glass door to the terrace opened.
Then, I, who had been in a daze in the deep lingering imagination, I stood up in surprise.

“Lady Eileen.”

“…..”

I stared blankly at him as if I was dreaming. The Archduke was still wearing his sweat-soaked training uniform. Perhaps there was something urgent, and he was gasping for even breath during training.
Could it be that he broke through from the training ground to here in 3 minutes?
While pondering whether that was really possible as a human being, I found that possibility in the archduke’s leg. he have such long legs, so he must be able to run fast.
Thinking about that, I was appreciating the archduke’s well-built, muscular legs, and I was startled when I saw his glowing eyes. His eyes were full of worry.

“Are you okay?”

“yes? What?”

What are you talking about? I wonder if he is asking if his training was okay?
Then, of course, it was fine. it was nice
But unexpected questions followed.

“I felt like you were going to collapse a little while ago…”

“yes? … … ah.”

That wasn’t the case either. The Archduke must have mistaken me for collapsing when he saw me slumping on the chair after training.
I quickly waved my hand to correct the misunderstanding.

“No, Archduke . I just sat down because I was suddenly tired.”

“If so……I’m glad to hear that.”

He looked a little skeptical, but he was determined to believe me anyway.
After clearing up the misunderstanding, I finally saw the Archduke properly in front of him.
The Archduke , who I saw up close, was soaked in sweat.
the smell of his sweat.
I think someone said that, the smell of sweat contains pheromones attracts the opposite sex.
At this moment, the theory became a reality and came to me.

The desire to pounce on the opponent rose slowly within me.
Without feeling ashamed, I crept up to him and widened his nostrils.
Even the smell of our favourite’s sweat is fragrant.
I instinctively sniffed, like a dog looking for a tasty treat, then looked up.

Was the training really hard?
The Archduke ‘s face, which seemed fine, was red. When he works out, his face gets red as his blood circulates.

“I hoped it was okay. After washing, let’s eat.”

“yes.”

I nodded excitedly.
It was time to appreciate my favourite from a distance again close up . Hurray!

***

The Archduke, who came to the table, was back in uniform after taking a shower. It was a little disappointing that the strange smell I smelled earlier disappeared, but now his body odour and the scent of wash were mixed. The smell tickled the tip of my nose in the wind and made my chest tickle, too.

The Archduke was hungry from training, so he was only focused on eating.

I put cherry tomatoes in my mouth with a fork, and of course, my eyes were only on the Archduke.

Then suddenly, I wondered what he was thinking, facing me. I read the original book dozens of times and boasted that I knew Raymond well, but honestly, I don’t know how he feels right now.

The situation was so different from the original novel.

Eileen of the original novel hit an iron wall and stubbornly rejected the Archduke. Far from having a meal together, she didn’t touch any food he brought to her room. The Archduke eventually sent her home on the fourth day.

What about me on the other hand?

A wall of steel? That’s funny. It’s not enough to roll out the red carpet because you can’t tear down the wall. I’m rubbing and rubbing the ice again and again so that the Archduke can come to me easily like a curling player.

As the situation were polar opposites, it was impossible to know the Archduke’s thoughts.

But this wouldn’t change the big story, would it?

“Don’t you like it?”

The Archduke raised his head and looked at me to see how full I was.

“No, it’s delicious.”

I ate harder on purpose in case he was worried. He looked relieved at my appearance.

But the moment the cherry tomatoes burst in my mouth, one fact hit my head hard.

The incredibly important fact that I forgot because I was distracted by the Archduke…!

“Oh, right!”

I was so surprised that I jumped to my feet.
