I approached the thug boss and bandaged the wound on his body with a makeshift cloth. It was then, that I noticed that his face was twitching, a sign that he had come to his senses.

Even though he was conscious, he still pretended to be unconscious.

Maybe he was confused about what I was doing. Or maybe he's just happy, thinking I'm a naive person for trying to treat him? Whereas, I just don't want him to die cause of blood loss.

As I bandaged the wound on his body, I was fixated on his bald, shiny, and slippery head. I suddenly remembered Ghost Face's sharp claws. I suddenly felt like I want trying it too.

Seeing between my fingernails and the boss thug's bald head, I did so immediately. I clawed at the thug boss' bald head.

It was hard at first, but after I pressed hard, I was finally able to claw at his annoying bald head.

"Aaargh!"

He shouted. With that, he finally stopped pretending to be unconscious.

Then I spoke to him with a bright smile.

"Now, you can tell me about the person who told you to hurt me, right."

I asked him who it was that made them do all of this to me. After that, he immediately told me in a trembling voice.

The name that came out of the thug boss's mouth was Daniel. It wasn't that surprising, considering that he had just battered me.

With this, father and son both want to harm me. If Baron Warwick ordered Ghost Face, Daniel ordered Black Box Organization, I think.

'If this is how you play, of course, I will repay you later,' that is were the words that came to my mind.

I also need to find the thread that connects Daniel with the members of the Black Box Organization.

​ After thinking that way, I let go of the bald-headed thug boss.

I let him go not out of goodwill, but because I needed bait to lure bigger fish. Before he left, I whispered in his ear.

"Please don't say anything about my identity to your boss. Just say that you were suddenly attacked by a black-robed person. And tell your boss that someone will come after them, ok."

I gave him a warning not to reveal my identity.

After I said that, he immediately ran away. He ran like his life as if only a thin rope remained.

Now, that there are no more obstacles, I immediately step on the gas heading to the mansion, where the Warwick family's residence is located.

There, most likely, I will meet the main character of this world. I will also reveal what purpose he came here for. Well, even though I already know what the purpose is, I guess.

***

Let's turn back time a bit.

Sometimes ago.

At that place—inside the mansion, Baron Warwick was sitting in his study. The documents that had piled up on his desk yesterday were now gone.

Thus, Baron Warwick simply sat leisurely on a chair. In his hand, he held a crystal ball. The crystal ball was a magic tool called the Communication Crystal Ball.

Within the Communication Crystal Ball, some words were written in it. Those words were a message from someone.

The message stated that someone would come and attend the party that would be held later that evening.

The name of the sender of the message is listed there. The name listed is Duke William Arkie. Duke William Arkie is the father of Jullian Arkie. He was a noble who wielded immense influence.

If one had to compare it to the influence the Warwick Family had which only had the rank of Baron, it was like heaven and earth. The point is, it's very different.

Baron Warwick's aged face shone brilliantly as he stared at and read the message contained within the Communication Crystal Ball.

"M-my lord, T-that..."

Suddenly, a servant opened the door and informed Baron Warwick that someone had come. However, the servant was strangely sweating profusely, looking very nervous, or perhaps astonished by something.

After being notified by the servant, Baron Warwick immediately headed outside to greet the soon-to-be person.

Just as he came out of the mansion, he saw that all the occupants of the mansion were already outside. They were looking up at the sky. Baron Warwick also looked up at the sky to see what the people were looking at.

Instantly, his aged expression began to show traces of surprise. His mouth was wide open until his chin almost touched the ground.

What he saw was a magical beast flying in circles in the sky. The animal was flying in the sky using its two wings, but its body resembled the body of a lion and its head resembled the head of a bird.

It was a Gryphon.

On Gryphon's back was one person standing majestically. This is Jullian Arkie.

After circling in the sky for a while, the Gryphon finally landed in the front garden of the mansion.

The wind generated from the flapping of Gryphon's wings sent a few people who got too close instantly blown away.

After the Gryphon landed, Jullian dismounted and approached Baron Warwick.

In that instant, Baron Warwick recovered his surprised expression. As if he was a veteran aristocrat, he didn't show a surprised expression anymore.

"I'm glad you came."

"Thank you for your welcome, Sir Baron Warwick. And after all, we will become closer after this."

"Let's go in and talk about it inside."

Baron Warwick led Jullian inside. They went into Baron Warwick's office room, not the living room.

They sit down. Then a maid brought a drink. After the maid came out, Jullian immediately said something to Baron Warwick.

What he said was about something that was at the heart of the matter. That's why he came here straight away.

The reason for Jullian's arrival was that he wanted to propose to Willa. He took out a formal letter and several boxes from inside his robes.

Upon seeing the two things that Jullian put out, Baron Warwick immediately smiled brightly.

Of course, Baron Warwick's decisions were predetermined from the start. That way, he immediately made a decision quickly.

Baron Warwick then replied with a nod of his head.

***

Upon Jullian's arrival, Baron Warwick immediately ordered his subordinates to bring Willa back as soon as possible.

For that reason, Willa immediately returned to the mansion where his family lived, leaving Mesties unconscious in the Church of Light.

And now, Willa is in her room. She was standing in front of the mirror. Around her, countless maids were swarming over her like a swarm of bees.

They were doing Willa's make-up and helping Willa put on her elaborate noble attire. Meanwhile, Willa just stood there like a mannequin.

Anyone who saw Willa's expression would know that she was not happy.

Then one of the maids spoke to Willa.

"Young Lady, there is a guest who wishes to come here."

"Who?"

Willa answered without turning to look at the maid who told her because she wasn't really in a good mood.

"She is a guest of the church representative. Her name is, if I'm not mistaken, Ms. Clarista Fonia. She is waiting at the front."

"Oh, let her in!"

Willa, who had been answering with a cynical tone and a displeased face, suddenly answered excitedly after hearing Clarista's name.

After getting Willa's approval, the maid went to pick up Clarista. A few moments later, the bedroom door opened and Clarista entered the room.

Clarista entered Willa's room with a gloomy face. Even though Clarista wasn't someone who would often show such an expression.

She looked at Willa, who was a few centimeters shorter than her, with a piercing gaze.

Not inferior to Clarista, Willa also raised her head to look at Clarista with a sharp gaze.

At the very least, Willa thought Clarista would come here with Mesties.

Therefore, when Clarista came and didn't bring Mesties here, she frowned.

For different reasons, the two of them had grim expressions on their faces.

They both stared at each other for a moment. Finally, Willa couldn't stand it and asked something that she obviously would have asked.

"Where's my brother?"

"He'll be here soon. More importantly, are the rumors true?"

Clarista returned Willa's question with another question.

On the way to Willa's room, Clarista had heard a rumor that Willa was getting engaged to Jullian. Because of that, she directly asked Willa.

Hearing Clarista's question, Willa could only knit her thin eyebrows. She couldn't answer the question unequivocally. Although she clearly didn't agree, since it was all his father's decision, she was forced to comply with her father's wishes.

Right now, she was thinking of running away if her father was really going to marry him off to Jullian.

Seeing Willa not answering, Clarista became more and more sure of the answer to her question.

From then on, the cold war between the two of them began to form a bit.

Clarista, with her struggle to get to Jullian. But Jullian will be engaged to Willa.

Meanwhile, Willa, with her struggle for her brother. But she's already betrothed to Jullian. And she realized that she couldn't argue with her father.
