How To Get My Husband On My Side

Chapter 78

It took me a while to understand exactly what he meant.

Are you serious right now?

The opponents were the monsters.

Only some were my friends, not all.

I knew they weren't even comparable to wild animals, and I knew they weren't just poor creatures that were hunted unilaterally.

It were the participants who should be concerned about the savage gladiatorial match, not the wailing monsters.

But why are you saying this?

"Most of all, if I set a new record in this match, I guarantee that no one will dare to make a fool of you, no matter what happens in the future."

I almost laughed like an idiot at the way he spoke, treating it as a joke.

Ah... don't do this! Why do you keep doing this to me?

The fact that this was the only reason for him to participate didn't make sense.

Because of me, the best paladin whose goal was to protect the North from the Monsters was taking part only for this reason.....

Suddenly, I understood why he had kept me from contacting other kinds of monsters, and why he was so angry when Sir Ivan and the others secretly took me to the frost wolves.

It wasn't just because of the unclear danger.

If Popo were a gnome, I would have been disturbed when he said he had caught gnomes a while ago.

Even though I knew in my head that it was inevitable in the North, I would have bad feelings in my heart.

Since the definition of my talent, whose cause and limits are uncertain, was not just being a simple interpreter, but a sympathizer, it would have been unavoidable for me to feel a little heartbroken.

Izek guessed that and did as much as he could.......

"Iz."

"Hm?"

Of all things, it was very cruel of me to test him at this moment.

I heard couples acted alike, hah.

"Lady Furiana poured tea on herself to tell me where I belong."

"...what?"

"And the maid said something similar earlier, so I slapped her in the face without realizing it. I'm ashamed of myself for making things big......."

"Wait, wait."

He narrowed his eyes and pressed his temple with one hand, as if the situation that had been thrown out of the blue was not well accepted.

I swallowed the heavy lump stuck in my throat.

They say it's hard at first, but really...

"Like this...... don't rush and tell me what happened from the beginning. What did they do? Don't be in a hurry."

I was a little stunned, but I quickly came to my senses.

"I never meant to, but I guess I've been looking too proud lately. She told me that overconfidence is prohibited and then, she was holding the tea cup...."

"Ruby."

"What?"

"You skipped straight to the end. Just like before."

What good was there to be talking about the details?

I hesitated to look straight.

Izek was sitting with a surprisingly expressionless face.
