Chapter 90. If You''re There, Come Out?

?

“These b*stards are just having a hard time, aren’t they bad at skills?”?

?

“Did you rush to beat me? These idiots. Take what you got!”?

?

There were four rough looking men.?

?

And against those men…. There were two more men who were being beaten…….?

?

There was one child who fainted behind the men, and another girl who was protecting the fainted child. They were all faces that Roselyn knew.?

?

“Cassion?”?

?

The men who were being beaten were Cassion and his guard Owen.?

?

And the girl they were protecting was Hannah, and Hannah was holding the boy who sold daisies.?

?

Just by looking at it like this, Roselyn could see what was going on.?

?

She didn’t know why Cassion was beaten there. Anyway, she was right about the situation protecting the children.?

?

“There are no countermeasures, really.”?

?

Roselyn shook her head and scanned the area.?

?

“If you’re there, come out.”?

?

There was no name called, but Shadow appeared as if he knew Roselyn was calling him.?

?

“Ah!”?

?

Louie started hiccupping when she suddenly spotted the man who was by their side, unbeknownst to anyone else.?

?

Roselyn didn’t have time to worry about Louie, who covered her mouth with her hands for fear of the sound leaking out.?

?

“Can you help those people, please?”?

?

Shadow stared at Roselyn without answering.?

?

Contrary to the name “Shadow,” the man was very simple and ordinary.?

?

‘As I recall, the last time I saw him at the mansion, he was all black…………’?

?

The strange thing was that she couldn’t remember his face at all, even though she had seen it last time.?

?

He was literally like a shadow.?

?

It was just a black shape, but the entity itself was not clearly visible.?

?

While Roselyn was observing him, there was another scream from the alley.?

?

“Ahh!”?

?

But somehow Shadow remained motionless and only stared at Roselyn.?

?

Furthermore, wasn’t the person screaming in pain in there flesh and blood of the master that he served? ?

?

(*She meant Cassion is Tamon’s brother, and Tamon’s Shadow’s master, but Shadow doesn’t care for Cassion)?

?

And yet, nothing wavered.?

?

It was as if the only person he had to protect was Roselyn.?

?

‘That’s right, you are literally carrying out an order that you must protect only me.’?

?

He would protect her, but she wasn’t his master, so he had no reason to grant her wish.?

?

Also, if he listened to Roselyn’s request to save those people, he would be negligent in watching her, which was his original duty, so he would not move.?

?

It was a horrifyingly perfect execution of orders.?

?

So what would it take to move Shadow??

?

Roselyn jumped into the alley without delay.?

?

“Stop the violence there.”?

?

The men who had been kicking their feet at the fallen Cassion and Owen, who was holding Cassion protectively, quickly raised their heads at the sound of Roselyn’s voice.?

?

“What’s with the woman?”?

?

“She’s not scared……….”?

?

“Hey, I guess you want to be tough, too.”?

?

The men smiled foully at Roselyn.?

?

Roselyn approached the men without a care in the world.?

?

Tap. Tap. Tap.?

?

She made a loud noise of hitting her cane on the floor, deliberately to be heard.?

?

Cassion lifted his stiff face.?

?

“Go! Call my brother ………..”?

?

“Shut up, b*stard!”?

?

The man standing behind him stomped on Cassion’s hand. ?

?

A curse word came out of Cassion’s mouth, and Owen, who was out of his mind for a while, quickly pushed the man away, protecting Cassion.?

?

“B*stard!”?

?

The man standing behind him kept hitting the fallen Cassion and Owen repeatedly.?

?

The other two were approaching, drooling over the limping woman who walked towards them fearlessly, covering half her face.?

?

She looked like a foreign aristocrat who had come to see a festival full of righteousness and naivety.?

?

There was no food that looked more delicious than this.?

?

“Now, let me see your hidden face….”?

?

The moment the man standing in front of her reached for the veil that was hiding Roselyn’s face, Shadow approached without a sound and grabbed the man’s arm.?

?

“What, what is it, brother, arghhhhh!”?

?

Crack!?

?

The sound of bones breaking in the desolate alley was clear and precise.?

?

A man who was neither large nor strong, but merely looked as ordinary as a passerby, dealt with the men without expression.?

?

“D*mn, what is this again? Since I don’t think things are going to work out, everyone is interrupting!” ?

?

“You, you, you b*stard!”?

?

The men shook at the sight of their companion, who instantly got one broken arm.?

?

But they decided that they had the advantage, both in terms of size and number of people, so they quickly took up arms.?

?

“Attack!”?

?

The three of them rushed to Shadow.?

?

Three large men jumped at him, but Shadow didn’t even flinch.?

?

He was holding a small, sharp dagger in his hand.?

?

Roselyn took advantage of the chaos and approached the fallen Cassion and the children.?

?

“Everyone, are you okay?”?

?

Cassion was conscious but could barely raise his body, and his second-in-command was completely unconscious.?

?

Fortunately, Hannah was clean and without a scratch, but the child who sold the flowers held in Hannah’s arms was already out of his mind.?

?

Roselyn methodically searched the head of the child who was held tightly in Hannah’s arms.?

?

Fortunately, there were no serious wounds to the head and body.?

?

“Louie, you go get Jorge.”?

?

“Yes, yes!”?

?

On Roselyn’s orders, Louie quickly ran away.?

?

That was when it happened.?

?

“This woman…!”?

?

The man who had fallen with a broken arm somehow took out a knife and jumped at Roselyn. ?

?

Realizing that things were going to go against them, he was going to take Roselyn hostage.?

?

Shadow, who had already dealt with the three angry men, turned to protect Roselyn.?

?

Clank!?

?

But Roselyn’s hands were much faster.?

?

She hit the hand of the man with the knife with the cane she was holding. It was a clean and precise move.?

?

Clank!?

?

The knife flew to the wall and the man fell back in surprise.?

?

Roselyn didn’t stop there, but swung the cane again at the fallen man.?

?

“Ah!”?

?

The man’s head turned around and he fell back without being able to make another sound.?

?

Since there were children, it was better to knock them out.?

?

She didn’t know what kind of trouble they would make if she let them go.?

?

How dare these people jump on them without a second thought??

?

Shaking off the end of the cane, Roselyn straightened up.?

?

As she turned to look behind her, she made eye contact with Cassion, who was lying on the floor.?

?

His bruised lips were wide open as if surprised by Roselyn’s resoluteness.?

?

Standing up straight, Roselyn held out her hand toward Cassion.?

?

“Those who are sane and those who have lost their minds should also be dealt with. Don’t procrastinate.”?

?

It sounded a bit cold, but at the same time, it was a sound that aroused the spirit of Cassion.?

?

Cassion grabbed Roselyn’s hand and got up.?

?

He then looked at Owen, who was completely out from protecting him.?

?

At that time.?

?

“Asha!”?

?

Jorge, the Knights, and the twins came rushing into the alley.?

?

Shadow had already disappeared.?

?

****?

?

“Oh! What the hell happened?”?

?

As soon as they got back to the house, Satin was in a panic.?

?

Fortunately or unfortunately, only Cassian and his second-in-command were injured, but by the look of it, something had happened.?

?

When Tamon returned to the mansion, he would definitely punish them.?

?

“Doctor, call the doctor!” (Satin)?

?

Fortunately, Cassion only suffered a scraped arm and a few hits to the face.?

?

Owen, however, had one of his legs and ribs broken.?

?

The resident doctor rushed in to check Owen and the child who sold flowers.?

?

Roselyn caught up with Asrell as she pulled Cassion to heal his wounds.?

?

“Asrell, I’ll do it.”?

?

It was unexpected, but Asrell didn’t complain.?

?

She just quietly handed Roselyn the first aid kit she had brought with her.?

?

Roselyn took the hesitant Cassion into a small parlor.?

?

walked into the small room with a faltering Cashion.?

?

“Did you follow us?”?

?

Cassion turned his head away without answering. Still, the reaction was enough.?

?

“Why?”?

?

Roselyn wiped Cassion’s palms with a clean cloth and alcohol.?

?

“…Ugh.”?

?

Cassion, who bit his lips and endured the sharp pain, hesitated and opened his mouth after a long silence.?

?

“You are a strange woman.”?

?

Roselyn glanced at Cassion. He was looking at Roselyn with a complicated expression.?

?

“Even though you’re my brother’s woman, you’re not at all submissive…..Most ordinary women or people shrivel up in front of my brother, but you’re different.”?

?

For Roselyn it was normal.?

?

But she was under no obligation to tell Cassion about the post-war situation. So she said nothing and kept silent.?

?

“Has my brother ever mentioned me to you?”?

?

“Ignore him.”?

?

Roselyn pretended not to know Tamon’s voice that came to her mind at that moment.?

?

These brothers were somehow twisted.?

?

She had no intention of interfering with it for no reason and making it even more twisted.?

?

“Nothing.”?

?

“He didn’t say anything?”?

?

…However, Cassion was hurt more by her words.
