If you kill the Duke and Duchess of Shabini, even Edwin will be punished.

Rather, the imperial family would say it is now and try to catch Edwin and kill him.

After that, there will be clashes with unpredictable results.

Of course, my safety would be at risk.

'What should I do?'

No matter how much he shook his head, there was no way to rectify the current situation.

This was not something that could be resolved just because Edwin endured it alone and resigned.

"Where did you say the smell came from, but this is where it smells."

Edwin smiled slyly, starting with the Duke of Shabini, and slowly glanced over his followers.

"Hey, that guy! You've shown me generosity, but you're being so arrogant!"

Duke Shabini's face turned red.

"It's annoying."

At the same time as those words were uttered, a sharp energy emanated from Edwin.

"Ugh!"

At the same time, those around them swallowed their breath and became pale and tired.

Children burst into tears, and some of the women collapsed.

Lillian and the Duchess also staggered as if their legs had lost their strength, and the Duke quickly grabbed them.

However, it was difficult for him, who was not a warrior, to endure Edwin's life.

I could see the arms around them trembling.

"That's why you shouldn't give generously. I thought I was good enough to survive."

Edwin's face had lost his smile, and he could feel the harsh cold of midwinter.

He glanced at me and then continued.

"I didn't even know I survived thanks to my bride."

When Edwin's cold eyes touched Lillian, her face turned pale blue.

"Stop."

Just then, the security forces rushed in and stood in the way between Edwin and Duke of Shabini.

"Nope?"

Edwin tilted his head sternly.

"If you decline our request, we will have no choice but to use force."

"try. If you can beat me."

The security guard, who politely asked Edwin, put on an absurd expression.

To them, Edwin's rant seemed like a bluff.

Unsurprisingly, Edwin had no weapons, while the security forces were armed with more than ten men.

"Ed."

I tightened my grip on the hand and looked at him anxiously.

"Stand behind me. It will be over soon."

I shook my head towards him again, holding the large hand that was trying to get away from me.

Stop. Please be patient.

Even though he knew what I meant, Edwin didn't say he was going to quit.

He just patted my hand and whispered softly.

"You close your eyes."

He was holding it tightly with all his might, but his hand slipped away in an instant.
