I'm Not Interested In The Main Characters-Chapter 17
Chapter 17
The meeting was boring.
She was uneasy about participating in the subjugation, and the day she told Cassian that she was going to it, she got an earful.
Representatives of each field, such as military doctors, retainers, and Imperial wizards including Lumiere, who will treat the injured in the subjugation of the monsters, as well as the people who were in charge of the subjugation of the monsters, were added, and quite a lot of people attended.
The Imperial magic department was divided into attack, auxiliary, and healing magicians.
Elysia, who learned magic from Ramote, who belongs to the Magic Tower, not from the Imperial family, was learning magic in almost all fields, so her affiliation became a little vague.
Elysia shuddered at the thought when she was learning magic while getting scolded by the old man in the past.
She was listening to the explanations from the wizards who had already participated in the subjugation. It seemed that the Esteban Knights were mainly leading the subjugation.
Cassian was explaining the overall details, such as the location where the monsters would be defeated and the estimated difficulty time.
Elysia was looking at Cassian’s figure leading the meeting, thinking that she had already heard her explanation.
‘I’m surprised to see you this way.’
Cassian seemed to feel her persistent gaze. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
The playful Elysia grinned every time he made eye contact with her.
Of course, she was listening to the meeting.
She knows what she needs to know but found it hard to concentrate for a long time.
‘Was it Bug?’
Elysia recalled the knight that had guided her some time ago.
Since Cassian’s past is clean, he didn’t say anything.
He said he had been with him for a long time, so Elysia thought she could get some pretty solid information.

Cassian was worried about whether it would be really all right to go to defeat the monsters with Elysia.
He suddenly wondered why she was throwing that gaze.
“That’s it for the meeting.”
Those who needed additional meetings gathered around three to five people and dispersed.
Elysia thought she would play more of her pranks on Cassian, so she stayed there until the end.
There was a touch on her shoulder.
“Lady Blanche?”
“Well... Lady, do you have a moment?”
***
Elysia took her steps to the parlor inside the knights building.
The passing knights blushed as they looked at the two.
It was natural that the eyes were focused because two beauties of opposite styles were walking.
If Elysia was a beauty with a provocative and cold image, then Lumieres’s image was protective.
However, the knights were consciously trying to block their gaze toward Elysia. It was because she was the leader’s lover.
The leading attendant led the two to a quiet parlor with no one.
The attendant handed over the tea and left.
“Thank you for the time, Lady.”
“I have something I want to say.”
Lumiere looked at Elysia, tucking her curly blonde behind her ears.
Since Elysia’s eye level was higher, Lumiere looked up.
‘Pretty.’
Big eyes and pink lips. The baby-like features were pretty.
Elysia looked at Lumiere’s green eyes and thought of Ryan.
Speaking of Ryan’s very dark green eyes, Lumiere had a much lighter color, giving a transparent feeling.
Lumiere smiled brightly and said.
“I had no intention of participating in the subjugation of monsters this time. I was hesitant to say that a noble lady should not be going to such a place.”
Elysia’s lips drew a line, and she smiled.
Lumiere put Elysia’s hand to her face.
“But when I heard the news that the Lady was participating, I got courage as well! So, I really wanted to say thank you.”
Elysia pulled her hand away, which was captured by Lumiere. Lumiere blushed as she scratched her embarrassed face.
“It’s fortunate that you got encouraged. Though I’m not participating in the subjugation as a noble lady. I am participating as a wizard.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Lady. I didn’t mean to say that. Because I keep hearing those words around me...” Lumiere bowed her head with a frightened face.
She looked like she would shed tears at any moment.
‘Tsk. She’s so soft-hearted, I think I did something bad.’
Elysia raised her hand and touched her forehead.
“I get it.”
“What?”
“You didn’t mean that.”
In fact, Elysia was more concerned about the time when Lumiere fell in love with Revos than the moment when Lumiere became involved in this subjugation.
She was just about to openly ask what happened between the two.
Lumiere blinked her eyes, looking at Elysia looking at her with a stiff expression.
“I... Lady. Do you have anything to say?”
“No. I just, it’s because you are pretty.”
“Wow, the Lady is prettier.”
Lumiere blushed her face and flushed.
‘She turns red really quickly.’
As Elysia read the original story, her feelings for her Lumiere were not very good.
She didn’t like the remarks she gave a while ago.
Still, Lumiere is the main character, but Elysia wondered how she could get the nickname “Saint Lady.”
Lumiere was Marquis Blanche’s illegitimate child, but she was later accepted by the family as the Marquis and Marchioness had no children.
Until recently, Lumiere had lived as a commoner, so she couldn’t ignore the opinions of the people around her.
‘That’s good enough for that. You shouldn’t just think too badly.’
When she saw things while drinking tea or sitting position, she couldn’t see Lumiere as a commoner.
“I will also attend the subjugation, but I definitely want to get along with you. Thank you very much.”
Anticipation and excitement appeared on Lumiere’s face.
At her feelings that were so obvious, Elysia smiled and opened her mouth.
“Yes.”
‘Shall we stay close only during the subjugation?’
Just enough to get a glimpse of her relationship with Revos.
She never really wanted to get close to the heroine. The last thing she wants is to get caught up in the original story?
Lumiere said she wanted to meet her after that, and she actively appealed to her intention of wanting to get along with her.
***
As Elysia walked into the house, she opened her eyes wide as she met unexpected characters.
The warm Ryan brother and sister smiled wide at her.
“You’re here, Miss Elysia.”
Ryan lowered his head as he flashed his dimples at Elysia.
“Wow. You look great in the robe, too!” Ryan’s sister, Lina, took her steps, praising Elysia’s appearance.
Elysia felt her fatigue relieve itself when she saw the fresh laughter of the pretty and handsome siblings.
As she took her steps to the mansion, Lina wondered about what had happened.
She liked her voice because it was so soft.
Although she is a commoner, Lina, who knows how to read, helped the butler with paperwork.
She disappeared after saying thank you several times, saying that she had to work.
Ryan quietly followed Elysia and Lina’s back, approached Elysia’s side, and said.
“I heard that you are going to the monster subjugation. When are you leaving?”
“I will leave in a week.”
At Elysia’s words, Ryan frowned.
It seemed that it would take two weeks at the earliest to finish all of the ‘things necessary to serve the lady,’ the butler said.
“Can I go with you?”
He was asking with the expectation that Elysia would allow him to follow.
“Well, I think it’s a bit difficult to go together to defeat the monsters.”
Ryan looked at Elysia with a gloomy look, but he shook his head again.
As Elysia entered her room, she beckoned Ryan to come in as well. As soon as she entered her room, Elysia seemed tired and laid on the sofa.
When she saw Ryan, she wanted to get up, but he asked her to lie down and supported her with the cushion, and he sat across from her.
“Ryan. Have you ever seen a monster?”
“Yes. Not many, but I have dealt with it. Miss Elysia, is it your first time seeing a monster?”
Elysia nodded her head.
“Wouldn’t it be okay? Anyway, I’ll only use magic in the back.”
“But it would be nice if I could follow... because I can look out for you in the back.”
Elysia explained to Ryan, who still had regrets.
“People who participated in the monster subjugation group are not allowed to take personal escorts or attendants.”
She was told that the attendant became the person to be protected in an emergency situation, and personal escorts were forbidden due to frequent bumps with the knights.
Ryan nodded, dissatisfied, and explained the monster he had seen.
“I’m a little curious about the monster’s blood. It’s different from the blood of animals, right?”
It was interesting because some of the monsters that appeared in the books Elysia studied were resembling deer and rabbits.
Ryan was frightened by her words and opened his mouth.
“Every monster has a poison of unknown kind in their blood. Absolutely not. Drink my blood.”
“Huh? Ugh... Yes.” Elysia, hearing Ryan speaking angrily, nodded her head, saying that she understood.
You can have a pure face and switch to a serious look like that.
“Aren’t you scared of me? You could die if I couldn’t control myself.”
He replied without any hesitation.
“If it’s Miss Elysia, it’s alright if I die.”
Because she was already his benefactor who saved his life.
At Ryan’s words, Elysia jumped up and approached him. With both hands, she lifted Ryan’s head, clutching his cheek.
“What nonsense are you talking about? If that’s the case, you say ‘no’ or ‘never.’”
Thinking about it, in the original story, he lost his life instead of Lumiere.
It’s good to be loyal, but at least you need to know how to save your own life.
Elysia came to this world and often thought that way. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om
She could understand the dedication towards those who played indispensable roles in this world, like the Emperor or the Crown Prince. They weren’t even sharing blood, but you sacrificed your life for them.
In the case of Ryan, even if he thinks he can because he considers her his benefactor.
‘No. There are no exceptions.’
“You don’t have to die for me. I want you to cherish your life.”
Ryan nodded his head, but Elysia remained unhappy.
