Laying Lena down on the bed in her room, Kahel looked down at Lena, who, unlike his mother, had peach-colored cheeks and exhaled even breath. If people didn’t respond to his devilish power, he wondered if he would be able to see other young girls as being so cute and lovable.

Kahel shook his head as he thought of the many young girls staring at him in the banquet hall. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t. Because Lena was a person with many special features besides not being possessed by the devilish power.

He didn’t want to see such a special and pretty person becoming skinny.

‘So to me, love or marriage, everything is a luxury.’

Kahel smiled bitterly and gently tucked the hair away from Lena’s cheek.

“Uhh.”

As if it was tickling, Lena turned her head away, whispering in her sleep a little. And she chewed her lips, rubbing her cheek gently against Kahel’s palm, who was still there, before she fell into a deep sleep again.

“Lena…….”

He couldn’t remove his hand, which had been shaped like Lena’s cheek, and Kahel frowned at the pain in his chest that had been whining from before.

‘You can’t be greedy. Don’t be greedy…….’

He was trying to calm his mind, but it wasn’t easy not to bite Lena’s cheek that touched his hand.

It was from the very next morning that the life of Terra Luave, which seemed to be filled with only pain and sorrow, began to change dramatically.

“Let’s summarize what we’ve been investigating.”

Herod, the head of the investigation team dispatched to Kerouac, gathered the investigation team in Baron Jenkins’s room, and decided to collect the information that had been scattered throughout the investigation.

“It is said that Eileen’s appearance was more of a dense beauty with waist-length silver hair, soft, white skin, purple eyes, and distinct facial features. She was about 165 cm tall and weighed about 45 kg, and she was slender.”

“Theo was right. Even those who hated her would admit that she was really beautiful, right?”

With those words, Theo shrugged his shoulders as if his aesthetics were finally recognized. No matter how many years pass, Eileen’s beautiful appearance will never be forgotten. It wasn’t because he had feelings for her or lust after her. It is simply because she was so beautiful that everyone had no choice but to recognize her.

However, there was another reason that everyone in the investigation team confirmed that fact once again.

“She seems to have had a lot of guys who flirted with her, but I don’t think any of them ever tried to do bad things toward her. That was a bit weird. The fact that everyone only made a widow with no one to protect her as a spectacle.”

“The same goes for the women. The woman, who poured all kinds of swears on her, said she never thought of harming her. I asked her why, and she said she wasn’t that bad of a person? She told of another woman whose husband had glanced at her and went to her and grabbed her by the hair.”

The investigators could not believe that a commoner woman who was said to be so beautiful lived peacefully without being threatened by anyone. Of course, based on Limon Faith doctrine and the ethics of this world, it is natural and right that there should be no physical threat to a single woman, but this world is not a place of angels, but a place of imperfect and lustful humans. And when people who lacked in many ways met someone who was weaker than them and even stimulated their carnal lust, the first thought that would come to mind should be to easily subdue them by force.
