Chapter 36 – 036 – Hyde, Faced With All Sorts of Temptations! # One

036 – Hyde, faced with all sorts of temptations! # 1

Toss and turn, toss and turn-.

Rustling-.

Psyche, lying on the bed, kept tossing and turning.

“Psyche, can’t you sleep?”

I asked.

Then Psyche’s eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened. Soon Psyche got up from her lying down and smiled brightly, lighting a nearby candle.

“Is it so. Hyde, I can’t sleep thinking about you leaving on a long journey tomorrow. I heard that the people of Florence are very picky. What if someone is rude to you?”

I also heard a lot of stories like that.

Florence is called the flower of the Durgien region and is said to be a city that stands out in culture, art, and faith.

Because it is a place where learned nobles, artists, and priests gather to have in-depth discussions, they despise ignorant people.

I like it very much.

It was my first time going to Florence, but I was hopeful that there would be a lot of people there I could talk to.

The people of Florence call themselves educated persons, right?

“Psyche, don’t worry. “Do I look like someone who will be ignored somewhere?”

“No, not really.”

“I heard that Florence is a beautiful city with a river running through it. “It is a place where there are many learned people, so there will be many people who recognize my true worth and value.”

A city of art and culture.

It was a place I really wanted to visit for a long time.

I’m going to go and sell my book “Village of Back Alley Nymphs”.

Then, Florence’s educated people will be able to recognize the artistic and theological value contained in my book.

What if I become so popular that people flock to me asking for my autograph?

What if it gets reprinted randomly?

I thought it would be difficult for all kinds of parties to want to invite me, a famous author, as a guest.

So, while I was looking slightly troubled, Psyche spoke.

“Hyde, wouldn’t it be better if I followed along? “Are you actually nervous about going on a long journey alone?”

I wasn’t particularly anxious.

Rather, I was anxious about Psyche following me.

“Psyche, in order to protect this Agarpe territory now that Loras and Tristan are gone, you must stay behind to train the soldiers and maintain security.”

The Psyche I remember was a skilled female knight.

That’s because he joined the 6 Knights of the Temple and renamed it the 7 Knights.

Of course, the Psyche of today had less experience and was less skilled and less powerful than the Psyche then.

Therefore, it was better for him to concentrate on training by gradually building his skills.

Only then can we protect the Agarpe territory.

This is now a place like ‘home’ that I have to return to.

“I will go to Florence and make sure to bring good knights for the Agarpe domain.”

Real knights, not fake knights like Loras or Tristan.

I will personally bring it to you with my great insight.

Rather, it came to mind when I heard the word knight.

Is Galatea okay?

“What about Lord Galatea? “Isn’t it still in very bad condition?”

Galatea had many mental problems due to being brainwashed by the Sisters of the Crescent Moon. I wondered what it would be like now, a few days later.

Soon Psyche spoke.

“I think my memories are slowly coming back these days. “It’s not only a problem for Lord Galatea, but it seems like Paulo, the gardener, is also very heartbroken.”

That’s right, Paul. The kid was betrayed by the knight he trusted, so it was bound to be a huge shock.

That’s what I said.

Instead of learning the art of killing people by watching knights, become my disciple and work to save people.

In fact, I saved many people’s lives.

Dihon was one of them.

“What about Dihon?”

“Dihon’s condition has really improved… ! “Not long ago, my younger brother Dihon took a walk around the inside of the mansion.”

“Good.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen my younger brother Dihon look so healthy. Hyde, I really don’t know how much help our Agarpe family receives from you.”

Psyche’s eyes shined brightly as if she was truly very grateful.

Being truly grateful when you receive help.

It may seem easy, but it is quite difficult for greedy people.

In that sense, my heart melted when I saw the innocent and honest Psyche.

Yes, this is my wife.

What if you can’t have sex?

Isn’t a true couple having honest conversations like this and sharing the warmth of their hearts?

“But there’s a little problem with Dihon. “A devil too.”

Suddenly her heart became cold.
It felt like a needle was pricking me.

I spoke passionately, warming my heart with a sense of justice.

“That’s a real trash book. “I can’t believe there is someone in the world who writes a book like that.”

“That’s right. It’s truly shocking that Dihon was hiding and reading such a horrible book. How is that really possible?”

That’s right.

What kind of crazy bitch would give a 10-year-old boy a book about sex, pussies and dicks?

And I have to take that crazy bitch as my second wife!

It was a very terrible thing.

“It seems that Lady Milione is out of her mind.”

I spoke calmly.

Then Psyche spoke with a more serious expression under the candlelight.

“Lady Milione has a problem, but the biggest problem is the man who wrote The Devil, Rust. There’s no way I could write just one book like this. If new works continue to come out in the future─.”

It was a terrible thing.

“Hyde, please write a letter! “I’ll be waiting for you!”

Zek-.

The day of leaving for Florence.

Psyche held my hand and shared her warmth.

I felt energized from the morning.

“You won’t even have time to write a letter. “Hyde will be busy from the moment he arrives in Florence.”

Milione sneered.

I felt weak in the morning.

Anyway.

With this feeling, I got on the carriage.

Psyche said without letting go of my hand until the moment she got into the carriage.

“Hyde, when you return safely, there is something I want to tell you. It’s about my vow of chastity. What’s the story… “I’ll tell you when I come back safely!”

A story about a vow of chastity.

My vision became dizzy, and I felt like blood was rushing to my lower body.

Since she cured Dihon’s illness, does Psyche mean to break her vow of chastity?

Are they saying that they are trying to break something strange, something that is not even in the Bible, such as postmarital chastity?

“Psyche! I will definitely write a letter!”

“Hey!”

A carriage pulled by two horses departed.

It was a carriage with a larger interior than expected, and it was very awkward because Milione and I had to sit facing each other.

Last night.

I thought I was in heaven until I fell asleep while talking with Psyche.

It was heaven when I just said goodbye to Psyche.

But now the carriage that Lady Milione and I were sitting in felt like hell.

“Hyde, tell me something interesting. I’m bored to death.”

You naughty bitch.

It’s only been 5 minutes since we left on the carriage, so why am I bored!

Of course, I didn’t say that.

If Milione ran wild in this narrow room, it was clear that my body would be crushed like Selim did yesterday.

Before leaving Florence, I opened a box that Psyche gave me as a gift.

There were a lot of books in it, including the rare masterpiece I wrote, “The Village of the Back Alley Nymphs,” And the two volumes.

“Would you like to read my book, Village of Backstreet Nymphs? “This time, I wrote two volumes to show to Prince Dihon.”

“I saw it.”

“You saw it?”

“It was fucking boring. It’s about guys called nymphs appearing other than Oinoi and just spouting strange nonsense.”

How can you sum up a book that took two days of hard work to be written so vulgarly in just one word?

Wow-.

Milione even spit on the book I was holding.

“It’s a shitty book.”

You crazy bitch.

Rather than that, Milione repeated the word ‘it sucks.’

How vulgar an insult is this?

“Lady Milione. Archibald’s daughter must not utter the word ‘fuck’ or anything else.”

“Fuck you.”

It was Lady Milione who raised her middle finger at me while saying that.

As I was dumbfounded and kept my mouth shut, Milione burst into laughter.

“What a practical word. How could such a simple swear word exist in this world? As expected, “Devil” Is amazing. “This is what I mean when I say a book that changes the world.”

Zek-.

It was Milione who took out an old and tattered book from between her chest.

Her face was flushed with excitement as she flipped through her book, which she had probably read over and over again.

“The way I see it, this book is a book that will kill an enormous amount of people. A knight’s sword can only kill one person. “This book is going to kill a lot of people.”

Why do you keep killing me?

Milione’s mania seemed to get stronger as time passed.

“How can books kill people? Lady Milione is exaggerating too much.”

“Book? This is not a book. To some, it may simply seem vulgar and obscene, but it actually contains a scathing criticism of the world.”

Where is the harsh criticism towards the world?

I never included that.

“Aren’t you overinterpreting it too much? “What kind of scathing criticism of the world is there in a collection of letters that are simply obscene and cheaply written?”

“Hyde, a stupid man like you wouldn’t understand! Look at the story of Rust, who harasses and abuses those in power and their women! “This is not just a book, but a challenge and warning to the world!”

Why is it interpreted that way?

I just wrote it because the story of him picking on noble women of high status was popular.

Soon Milione let out her sigh.

“Let’s not talk. Rather, I want to talk about Psyche. “I saw earlier that you parted ways affectionately as if it were some kind of eternal love?”

Psyche.

The moment that name was mentioned, a warm wind blew through my heart, like spring flowers blooming.

I would say that being with Milione made me realize once again how pure, kind, and beautiful Psyche was.

I think this journey will take approximately one to two months.

The thought of not seeing Psyche’s face for so long made me feel sad and miss it already.

Psyche was also very disappointed.

However-.

Milione sneered as if he didn’t understand our feelings.

“Anyone who sees us will think that we have loved each other our whole lives. You guys, it’s been less than a month since we met, right? It’s disgusting that you’re talking about love and everything like that. Even though we didn’t even have sex.”

“Lady Milione, that’s how love works. Love does not necessarily require a physical relationship. It seems that progress was a little fast for Lady Milione.”

“You say that, but the only thought in your head is to defile Psyche, right? Rust said. All men say that. “A man like you who pretends to be godly is actually more disgusting.”

Maybe it’s because these words were said by me, the smartest person in the world, but they really hit home with me.

Zek-.

At that time, Milione Archibald moved to the seat next to me.
Soon he breathed lukewarm breath on me and placed his hand on my thigh.

“Hyde, I know people like you well. “These are people who act nice and pious in front of themselves, but in reality, they commit more terrible acts than anyone else.”

Sseukseu-.

As Milione Archibald said that, he continued to touch my thigh with his hand.

I was surprised because the touch felt softer and kinder than I expected.

Milione, no, I can’t believe Lars’ touch can be this kind.

“There is no need to lie and be hypocritical even in front of me. At that time, it was just the two of us in the carriage and my body was heating up. What do you think? “You can do whatever you want with me now.”

Zek-.

Milione’s hand, which was scanning my thigh, grabbed my hand.

And isn’t it something you take to your heart?

Soft-.

Soon, my hands touched my explosively soft and elastic breasts.

It wasn’t just that.

Zek-.

Milione unbuttoned his top to fully expose his chest.

“We’re going to get married anyway. Hyde.”
