When The Count’s Illegitimate Daughter Gets Married

Chapter 80

After he explained the restoration of mana of a place and why Ian and Laritte should break up, he added, “don’t tell other humans because this knowledge is kept only to dragons. Got it?”

Putting all the puzzles together, Ian finally understood why he sensed the strange flow of mana whenever he was next to Laritte. However, he just couldn’t admit it. He would not believe that she could be in danger if she stayed with him.

“No way…. it’s not possible.”

Ian was the only child of Duke Reinhardt, who had power equal to the Imperial family. He inherited the Duke’s Decree without much trouble and he had the respect of all the ministers.

But Laritte did not. She was born in the slums—a place filled with germs, diseases, and decomposing stuff crawling all over the place. She was taken into the County at the age of eight, but she never approached Ian by herself.

Ian told himself where it went wrong.

It was impossible for the Swordmaster to return to his mansion after he was betrayed by Bartolt. In other words, he was the one to pioneer a new fate and create a different future.

‘Back then, I shouldn’t have met Laritte. I shouldn’t have gone to the villa. I should have accepted death.’

“Is there any solution other than us getting separated? Please, dragon.”

Still, Ian did not regret the past. He wasn’t afraid to die. But without him, Laritte would have aged all by herself in the mountain villa. He didn’t like that. They met coincidentally, so every moment he spent with her was a thousand times more precious to him.

“Not that I know of. Now, the danger may be alleviated by simply not speaking to each other. But in the end, you’ll have to stay away, like strangers.”

Seta thought of other dragons, most of whom were older than Seta. It was not that there was no way at all, but it was better to say that it was impossible. ‘Because it’s something that all dragons have to approve of. And no one favors humans other than me,’ he thought.

Ian clenched his fist, his veins bulging from the pressure.

“Ian!”

Oscar pulled Ian into a hug.

“What happens now?” Ian questioned.
