Chapter 4

The immensely popular romance fantasy novel that was serialized with great acclaim, .

A harlequin romance where a beautiful commoner girl with divine powers, undefinedSierra,undefined meets the Empireundefineds only Duke, undefinedRuwellin Rashiane,undefined and enters a contractual relationship—a so-called undefinedcontract first, love laterundefined story.

Though perhaps somewhat cliché, this novel had an immense charm that made you overlook even the trite clichés, and that was the crazy charm of the male lead, Ruwellin.

[Could you please look at me? Iundefinedd do anything for you...]

Heart-wrenching, earnest seduction was just the beginning.

[Donundefinedt leave me... I only have you, you are my world... Without you, I...]

A male lead who only sees the heroine, crazy about the heroine! So affectionate it keeps you awake with excitement, but possessive to the max!

[You can look forward to it. I studied hard for tonight.]

Despite being a virgin whoundefineds never even hugged a woman, heundefineds so competent he can bring tears to the heroineundefineds eyes!

undefinedAh, crazy! So good! Aaaah!undefined

In my past life, Iundefinedm sure I liked the male lead, Ruwellin, so much that I rolled off my bed in excitement, hit my head on the corner of my desk, and died.

I donundefinedt remember clearly, but my last memory is just that, so thatundefineds my guess... Anyway, thatundefineds not important.

undefinedThe villain family that constantly commits evil deeds and clashes with Ruwellin at every turn...undefined

That was the prestigious magic family undefinedHill,undefined led by the original storyundefineds ultimate villain, Adrian.

And I am the precious jewel of that Hill family.

Adrian Hillundefineds only younger sister, Rosnia Hyll.

This man here is my fated nemesis, who might one day slice my neck!

undefinedBut heundefineds so handsome!undefined

Duke Ruwellin Rashiane, Duke Rashiane, thank your crazy handsome face.

If you were even 2% less handsome, I would have left you here to die...

undefinedI canundefinedt just let such a gorgeous man die...undefined

"Heave-ho."

"Wal, wal!"

"Be quiet."

Using strength magic, I hoisted the male lead over my shoulder and carried him inside the villa.

The familiar kept trying to interfere, but when I threatened, "No mana ball for you?" it immediately lowered its tail.

Was this guy actually loyal to mana balls rather than his master?

Anyway, I went straight to the living room and laid the male lead haphazardly on the sofa.

If I put him on the bed soaking wet like this, heundefinedd dirty the bed. So, sacrifice the sofa for now, clean him up, then put him on the bed.

undefinedAlright, first, take off his clothes...undefined

"......"

I tried to roll up my sleeves but hesitated, frozen.

I have to take off... his clothes? He got drenched in heavy rain, so even his underwear must be wet, right? Then underwear too...!

undefinedDamn, this is so shameless...!undefined

Even if itundefineds unavoidable, having to personally undress a strange man... I just pray Iundefinedm not mistaken for a molester.

With trembling hands, I slowly began unbuttoning his white shirt. ...But it looks like the shirt might burst... Is it just my imagination?

undefinedWhy is his body so good?undefined

Is this what they call a male leadundefineds physique? His muscles look incredibly solid. Itundefineds not that Iundefinedm crazy for wanting to touch them, anyone who sees this man would think the same, right? R-right? I canundefinedt be a pervert!

After unbuttoning all the buttons with trembling hands, as I tried to remove his shirt, my gaze was inevitably drawn to his fully exposed abdomen. ...His abs are no joke. How many sit-ups does he do?

How does one get a body like this? Is it all due to the male lead buff?

undefinedHeundefineds got an incredibly handsome face, and a uselessly good body too...!undefined

Itundefineds a thousand thanks that I donundefinedt attend many banquets and rarely saw the male lead.

If I had seen him often, I would have definitely fallen for him. Thatundefineds how handsome and cool he is. Damn.

undefinedAlright, shirtundefineds off. Next is...undefined

"......"

Pants... I have to take off his pants...?

undefinedHow can I take off his pants with my own hands? Thatundefineds way too shameless!undefined

This is crazy, what do I do? My hands hovered over his pants, at a loss.

I have to take off all the wet clothes to change him into clean, dry ones... Should I just leave the pants and underwear as they are?

But what if he catches a cold? Heundefineds got a good physique, but colds donundefinedt discriminate...

undefined...Wait, I can just use magic to take them off, right?undefined

"......"

I dropped my hands in despair. Am I an idiot? I should have used magic from the start, why didnundefinedt I think of that?

undefinedItundefineds all the Dukeundefineds fault for being unnecessarily handsome.undefined

Blaming him, I stepped back from the sofa and let out a sigh. I must have been so distracted by his handsome face that I couldnundefinedt think straight.

Anyway, using magic, I could undress him without using my hands or even looking. Luckily. I turned my back to the man and slowly cast the spell.

Undressing him without looking was easy. After taking everything off in an instant, I quickly dried him with a towel and dressed him in the loosest tunic of Adrianundefineds I could find.

Putting pants on him seemed a bit high-difficulty... So I just left him like this for now.

Slowly turning around, I checked the manundefineds condition with a slightly embarrassed feeling. ...Iundefinedm sure I put the loosest tunic on him, so why does it look so tight? Why are his muscles so assertive?

undefinedPlus, itundefineds short, so it looks like I dressed him in a minidress.undefined

Is this manundefineds human rights okay like this?

Haha... I donundefinedt know. Be thankful I brought you in instead of leaving you to die, Duke.

"Heave-ho."

Using strength magic again, I lightly hoisted him over my shoulder and headed to the bedroom.

The first-floor bedroom is mainly used by Adrian, so heundefinedll be furious if he finds out later... but I canundefinedt help it.

Even for me, who can freely use strength magic, carrying such a large man up to the second floor is hard.

undefinedIf I slip and fall even a little, Iundefinedll be crushed under this man.undefined

Then I might faint. In more ways than one.

undefinedBy the way, I didnundefinedt put underwear on him... I hope thatundefineds okay? Iundefinedll buy him some later at the market, I guess.undefined

Still, even I couldnundefinedt lend him Adrianundefineds underwear...

"Oh my, this is tiring."

Arriving at the bedroom, I dropped the man onto the bed as if throwing him. The mattress bounced heavily under his weight. Plus, the tunic he was wearing rode up slightly, revealing his firm thighs.

I quickly pulled the tunic down and covered him up to his neck with a thin summer blanket. My face was burning hot, not just my neck.

undefinedNo wonder they call him the bewitching male lead, heundefineds seriously dangerous.undefined

I really need to be careful. So I donundefinedt end up gobbling him up in a moment of weakness...

undefinedThis man is Duke Ruwellin Rashiane. He surely despises our evil family, my brother, and me! I must never, ever covet him!undefined

Even now, his peacefully sleeping face was so angelically beautiful that my eyes kept drifting to him, but I tried not to look and slowly turned my back.

Letundefineds quickly go to the market and buy him some clothes before he wakes up. Then when he wakes, Iundefinedll throw him the new clothes and send him off.

Thinking lightly, I was about to leave the room.

"Ugh, huuuh..."

Suddenly, a pained moan came from behind me.

I froze mid-step, my body rigid, then quickly turned back towards the bed.

The man was frowning in pain, writhing, and letting out moans through clenched teeth.

"Hueuk, ugh..."

"Huk... W-what? Hey, you."

Startled, I stammered and cautiously approached him. Up close, I saw his forehead was beaded with cold sweat.

Hesitantly, I reached out and touched his forehead. Oh my god, it was burning hot.

undefinedNo, why did his fever spike so suddenly?undefined

"Hey, can you hear me? Wait a moment. Iundefinedll get a wet towel and antipyretic."

Did he catch a local endemic disease after collapsing in the rain? Come to think of it, I think I heard that an epidemic once spread in this area...

undefinedHe wonundefinedt die like that, will he? The male lead dying of a high fever would be a bit much, wouldnundefinedt it!undefined

Hurrying to the bathroom, I quickly took out a silver basin and filled it with cold water. Then I took out a suitably sized, soft towel, threw it in, ran to the living room, and grabbed the antipyretic from the cabinet.

Thank goodness I catch colds often, so the villa is always stocked with antipyretics. Antipyretic in hand, I hurried back to the bedroom.

The man was letting out dangerous moans, his face flushed with fever.

undefinedAh, geez...undefined

Itundefineds a problem that the male lead suddenly has a fever and is sick, but the bigger problem is how dangerously tempting he looks right now.

His flushed white cheeks, his fragile expression that makes you want to tease him, his slightly parted lips breathing out hot air...

undefinedYour fatality rate is too high, Duke...!undefined

Is this how he bewitches the heroine and devours her?
