I’ll Just Be Friends With My Ex-Husband - Chapter 74-2

‘What if he was not satisfied with not having her for a while? Are you saying that we should go back to the White Uroboros?’

[Don’t be captivated by women, Ernst] Ernst sighed.

“……I’ll visit you.”

[Good. And what happened to the Nigrum guys?]

“It disappeared, maybe it sank below the surface of the water. I’ll show up soon, so I think I’ll have to wait for it.” The White Uroboros clicked his tongue.

Ernst was certainly straightforward and sincere. He was a perfect knight to do well what was told. But the problem is that it stops there.

It is a war that can be won only by predicting all anomalies and the future, but Ernst was overwhelmed by just solving the problems that were in front of him.

[You have to be the one who leads, Ernst] White Uroboros once again warned.

“There are no results, but we continue to search. Soon we will be able to hold a religious trial against Nigrum.”

[Good. Keep that promise] The White Uroboros put aside their grievances.

For now, Ernst was the only one whom the white snake could trust.

Billiers stretched his arms up. “It’s done!”

Gerald, who had come to meet Billiers, rose up on his seat with a curious look. Billiers flicked his excitement back to Gerald.

“What’s done?” Gerald asked.

“Gerald, everything you asked for is ready!”

Billiers put a transparent glass bottle down on the table. The clear liquid in the glass bottle was glittering.

“It’s too transparent to say it’s purified blood, though,”

“I think so, too. But what can I do if this is right?”

“If I eat that, can it eliminate Nisephor?”

“Maybe. The important thing is that it removes the toxicity of the illness and humans can drink it.” Billiers nodded proudly.

Gerald slowly grabbed the bottle. He finally got the answer. He got the key to liberate Louella from the illness Gerald’s lips quivered.

“It was the monkey grass that removed the toxicity. It was one of the herbs Louella sent me the other day. Fortunately, the dean saved some of the monkey grass.”

Gerald rubbed the bottle with a facial expression that was filled with emotions. Billiers had been talking about his useless stories. How hard it was to get rid of the toxicity, and where the blood came from, it was great. These were the stories.

Gerald listened in one ear and out the other. If I feed her this… His heart began to beat with anticipation. The brilliant future with Louella seemed to unfold before his eyes.

[I’m glad it worked out as you said.]

‘Your role is important. As soon as you eat this, Nisephor will develop.’

[My brother will come running like a dog who could smell its own scent. Before that happens, my goal is to steal her soul. But you have to keep in mind, if you go over there, you might never get it back.]

“Louella’s soul…”

[I’ll give it back to you. With the brand-new me, the White Uroboros will never be able to look over or take her away. We may have a happy ending as we wish.]

That’s what Gerald wanted to hear. Happy ending. The ending Gerald wanted to get by turning back time twice.

In the fairy tale book, the last one would always end with ‘The Princess and Prince lived happily ever after.’ Gerald was also dreaming of such a future with Louella. A future where they wouldn’t have to break up and be sick anymore.

This was the answer to Gerald.

“Thank you, Billiers. You’ve done a great job.”

“What?” Billiers shrugged.

“Please let me know if you know anything about Nisephor. Gerald nodded.

“You have the medicine you gave me before, right?”

“Of course.” Louella always had medicine with her just in case she had a problem.

May what Gerald did protect Louella. Gerald carefully packed the bottle. Gerald, who finally regained his composure, asked Billiers.

“Oh, but what happened to Flora?”

“Flora?” Billiers coughed in vain.

Gerald stared at the figure. Louella said something must have happened, so when she met Billiers, she asked him to poke it. And now Billiers was shouting with his whole body very transparently.

Something happened! “Please ask me!”

Billiers fell asleep at his feet and threw up the truth.

“’Kay, I kissed her.”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” Billiers cried out.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh… I didn’t mean to. What does Flora think of me?”

Huh? How did things get like this?
