–Gosh my.

"I didn't want my selfless Benevolence was perverted like this.

Only Things in the world rarely go my way."

–Mistress... Marceau shivered. This is There was an unexpected turn of events.

"At the with all my present wealth and appearance, having multiple lovers too difficult for me, a person who lived in modern society.

This is It looks like a betrayal of a beloved.

Yes And it would be the same even if I had There was no beloved.

All My thinking is too modern."

– ... Yes? Darcy asked silently. Seemed he was very worried about Marceau's situation.

–I I never met the troupe again. And even didn't enter the theater until 10 p.m., when They're leaving.

Even Saying this, the girl didn't know, believed Darcy was the first to be given to her.

She is Cautiously, she looked up.

–Here How," the man's answer was much simpler, than Marceau thought.

Darcy looked at her with the same impassive face as before.

But His gaze became much softer.

"He's believed what I said."

This is was such a natural reaction, that it raised eyebrows.

– ... Believe?

When The girl, without realizing it, Darcy smiled.

–No Reasons why I might not believe you. Perhaps you lied?

–No.

–Here And that's it," he loosened his tie and relieved Sighed.

Only Marceau then noticed that the man looked more tired than usual.

"... with From the very beginning, the expression on his face was a little gloomy.

Speaking About how hard times I'm having I'm I didn't notice it at all. But before that moment he cared quite a lot about me."

Looking on Darcy, Marceau finally asked:

–Today Did something happen?

–No He shrugged his shoulders relaxedly and smiled Darcy.

But His smile was awkward, though.

"I think He doesn't want to talk.

Not I'll ask questions. I don't want to force Forcing someone who doesn't want to speak open.

If He wants to hide, I'll let him."

Shoes Darcy clicked, hitting the floor. Man He frowned and ruffled his hair. Like Something didn't sit well with him.

"Than the more I think about it, the more I don't I see it.

Strange imperious appearance and aura emanating from cannot be explained by a word 'Merchant.'"

First Marceau wondered what she was thinking, but what the more she dated Darcy, the more It was becoming clearer.

"There are There's something about him that I don't know.

If we will continue to meet, then for sure Something's going to happen.

I I can't even guess what exactly.

I should reduce the frequency of meetings and Keep your distance.

Worth Consider terminating the contract in Soon. Can be used his magic tools and find other mages."

–You Need anything else? Darcy spoke With a girl lost in her thoughts. – After that, I won't be able to see you for a while due to a busy schedule, So I'll have time to make another tool.

"Maybe Could the time be even more successful?"

–Looks like you're very busy," Marceau replied immediately. "The deal is going very well. No problem You can't help it.

At Darcy crossed his arms over his chest And he smiled.

–He Do you really like it?

–This is Not really. It's hard to see someone like that as handsome as you, Darcy.

Appearance man was not everything to her, but Marceau Quickly added this as I thought what if they still have it wrong a lot of time for meetings, it's not worth it wasting it on embarrassing in front of a friend Other.

At Darcy crossed his arms at the girl's words breasts with a bored expression on their faces:

–So What kind of magic tool do you need? I think you have, as usual, quite a lot Thoughts.

Marceau I thought about what to do and decided:

–I I want a magic tool that can save the moment and leave it on paper, not just in video recording.

–Looks like on a magic tool that Turns an image into pictures.

–Yes I do.

–In compared to what I've been doing so far, It's easy. Good," he nodded happily Darcy at her words.

He He didn't say anything about money. Seemed the man was sure that Marceau was well will take care of it.

"When Darcy's going to leave tonight, I've got to I'll give him 3 times more magic rocks than usual."

So long Marceau made a promise to herself, Darcy Asked:

–You Don't wonder when I'll be back?

"There will be It's impolite not to ask."

– ... when Will you come?

–I I don't know either.

"... then Why ask? What an absurdity."

Darcy Rose from his seat.

–Forward Let's go to the cinema together.

– ... A what?

–I I want to see a play. Only The two of us, of course.

Romantic The lines were like an invitation to date, but the man's tone was more appropriate Threats.

"Wait, Is it a real date?

Strangely that today he started talking about rumors, about me, and I was worried about me..."

–When I'm going to make a new recorder this time, I want to make it more advanced, than the previous one. I need to review one performance to see how much It works well.

"What do?"

Darcy finished his explanations before he even Marceau had time to think too much.

"Oh, Of course.

"I almost convinced herself that he had fallen in love with me.

In after all, Darcy can't be interested me, right?" Marceau felt herself again spontaneously.

And rose from her seat.

–Ok Then let's go to the cinema.

Darcy was against meeting other people, so Marceau first took him to the cinema and then headed to the theater behind the recorder.

Her I didn't have to go there myself, but instead of In order to order the servant, the girl thought it would be safer for them mental and physical health. On hearing the price, the servants and maids moved Voice recorder, trembling all over. Your Role the poor perception of magic Tools.

Returning to the cinema room with the magic instrument, Marceau discovered Darcy sitting on a bed and reading a book. The wall next to the cinema was full of bookstores shelves that are completely filled with Books.

On There were favorite books on the bookshelves Marceau in different genres. There were also detective novels, and books on the humanities sciences, but most of the space was occupied by romance novels.

–You Do you like such novels?

–And yes I do.

–Surprised. Love Love Stories When You're Tired from people and don't even think about getting engaged.

"I I love reading love stories. I've tried read a lot of genres but if I You'll have to choose one of your favorite genres, it will be novels."

Marceau She put the recorder on the table and shook Shoulders:

–You You might like it too.

At Marceau's words Darcy closed the book that and turned his head in her direction.

His silver hair that fell over both of them shoulders sparkled dazzlingly in the light ceiling chandelier.

–Why Do you like it? The man asked in a tone of incomprehension.

Questions Darcy was always clear-cut. The girl doesn't there was an opportunity to shrug it off or Escape.

–Agreeably see how people who didn't even know about each other, become irreplaceable in each other's lives. It's romantic.

Darcy It was easy to tell the truth.

Admit in his true feelings, perfectly It was easier for a stranger and more convenient than Marceau thought.

"I grew up without it.

Parents All my life they have given me love, but at home There have always been problems. Any nonsense was impossible for me.

My My parents weren't the ones I could go for relied on them were the ones I've always was supposed to help. This time gave me a gift I'm just a shadow of life.

I I want to be an indispensable person in someone's life. 'Cause I've never was like that.

I think For this reason, it is not easy for others to let go the protagonist Leshuan."

–I I also project my desire to lean on on someone. While reading a book.

–You Are you satisfied with simple reading? At You are very imaginative.

"Says It's beautiful, but," Marceau lowered her gaze slightly.

–At you harsh tone.

–This is my charm," Darcy smiled, getting up with a book in his hands and approaching the the girl, putting it in her arms.

Only His face continued to reflect bewilderment men:

–Why? Is it okay to love like that? Nobody's will not give up the future Marquise of Etvar.

"I I don't crave love anymore... why?

All Because all the illusions about love were destroyed after passing through Lashuan, Ryan, and Kaysen.

Fiction beautiful because it is fiction..."

–I I'll think about it when I'm tired of sitting at home," she replied in a serious voice Marceau.

"Right now I'm busy designing my own the future."

In As a result, Marceau attached it to the recorder A magic tool that is now brought by Darcy.

But The man didn't seem to be done yet speak.

Marceau I felt a hot look on me.
