I’ll Wrench the Neck of Sweet Son of a B*tch - Chapter 29
Episode 29: Everything, as Lette Wishes
“Have you already forgotten? I told you not to come in until I found Chloe again.”
The appearance of his master, showing madness with such a cold voice was indeed unfamiliar.
“But, Master, you haven’t eaten anything for three days. I’m afraid that this will hurt your body….”
“Oh, my”
Slowly, with the sound of the hem rustling, the young Grand Duke moved. With a grin on his lips, he pulled the sword from the wall.
“You’re asking me to kill you.”
“M, master..…!”
The sound of a sword moving in the air was heard. The old butler’s body collapsed and fell to the floor. The fresh blood soaked the floor.
Servants watching the situation outside the door collapsed in surprise. Kailos burst into laughter at them, who were only trembling and crying.
“Oh, my. Don’t cry”
Step, step. His footsteps and the sobbing of the servants rang in the quiet hallway.
“Crying…….”
Kailos, standing in front of them, lifted the sword with a grin.
“I’m sick and tired of it.”
The blade covered with blood cut through the air, at the same time red blood splashed on his face. All the remaining servants ran away with a scream. Kailos, who was left alone in the hallway, smiled in vain and dropped the sword in his hand.
Thud—
The sound of iron hitting the floor rang unusually loudly.
“Haha!”
Kailos tilted his head back while sweeping his face.
“Hahaha! Hahahaha!”
Laughing like crazy, he suddenly stopped laughing and muttered in a sad voice.
“Chloe…”
She left. It was already the second loss he suffered.
Dear Chloe, Chloe who went crazy because of another man’s child, and Chloe who eventually died.
She hated him after coming back in time. Chloe, Chloe, who left saying that… Dear…….
“Chloe…”
The sad voice cried out looking for only one name. The black eyes colored with madness showed a sad look and shed tears. Ugly tears mixed with red bloodstains and flowed down.
“You don’t like me……. This can’t happen…….”
The words that no one listened to any longer spread out in vain.
“Chloe…”
The sun went down and darkness fell, but no one appeared in front of him anymore.
Kailos walked around the room like a madman, reciting only one person’s name. The soles of his feet, which were not wearing shoes, were torn from the pieces of broken furniture.
Kailos couldn’t understand what the hell was wrong.
It was definitely perfect, until he came back in time. Even after he met her alive in front of him again.
‘I hate you beyond hatred’
It was Chloe, who always gave him blind love. It was Chloe who grew up only looking at him. It was none other than Kailos Ludwig, himself, who raised her like that.
What’s the problem with making Estelle again, her child, whom she misses so much?
I said I’d do anything for you. I could have done anything, anything really, as long as she didn’t leave the Duchy. He could have given up everything he had and loved only her like that man.
“As expected… That man…….”
Kailos remembered his half-brother who had taken her with him. In fact, he’s not a half-brother, but a man who has no blood relation. If I kill the man, will Chloe come back to her senses then?
It occurred to Kailos that maybe she was under black magic. Otherwise, she couldn’t choose another man.
A squeaking, harsh friction was heard. Kailos suddenly stopped moving, it was faint, but it was a sign of a person.
Once again, he didn’t like the attitude of the servants who broke his orders and came to him, so Kailos looked at his door with madness.
Step, step, step.
It was a cheerful and light walk as if to announce their existence. Kailos frowned a lot at the walk that seemed to remind him of someone.
“Who…”
A shrill voice rang out. However, Kailos stopped breathing the moment the slender silhouette entered the room. Cloudy tears flowed down his eyes.
“Chloe……?”
It was definitely her, the gorgeous silver-haired woman, with faint moonlight shining on her. Chloe…
“Chloe!”
Kailos approached her at once and hugged her soft body fully in his arms. She’s back, an indescribable joy filled his heart.
At that moment, the woman’s voice rang in his ears.
“Do I look like Chloe?”
With a cold voice, the woman in his arms disappeared in an instant. Kailos, who put his arms down in vain, calmly lowered his trembling gaze.
“Chloe…”
A young child who barely reached his waist and looked about ten years old was looking up at him. The wavy silver hair was definitely hers, and her face was full of hostility toward him.
“Hello, Kailos.”
The child greeted him while looking at him.
“You…”
“No, that’s not my name.”
Kailos took a slow, deep breath. He remembered the name of the last woman he had seen, just before going back in time, with a belated headache.
“……Lette.”
“That’s right, Lette.”
The child walked past him with a smile. While walking on the haphazard floor, the child’s two small feet easily avoided broken pieces of furniture.
“What a mess.”
The child hummed in a rather pleasant voice.
“But this isn’t enough.”
The child, who jumped and sat on the window, tilted her head obliquely looking at Kailos. The red eyes revealed in the moonlight curved lovingly.
“It’s not worth going back in time if you are broken so little.”
“…….”
Kailos looked at the child with his lips closed. The child laughed at his expression which was sinking.
“Look forward to it, you messed up Kailos. Your misfortune begins now.”
Cursing in a clear voice, the child jumped out of the window. It was quite high, but the child’s small body lightly landed on the ground without any injury.
“If you climb up the clouds, there are angels’ castles. An angel in white smiles at me.”
A song played through the child’s lips.
“When I wake up dancing with flowers and butterflies, singing a song of happiness, my mother hugs me.”
The child, who was walking with light steps, stopped moving, feeling a presence.
“She whispers in a dreamy voice that she loves me…….”
A bright blonde knight was standing far under a tree waiting for the child. The child who found the knight smiled broadly and called his name.
“Enoch!”
The child jumped toward the knight. Every time the child ran one step, the child’s body became smaller and smaller. The young child became a very small child of about four years old and jumped into the knight’s arms. The knight held the child with one arm.
“Hello, Lette.”
Enoch France smiled faintly and hugged the child in a posture more comfortably.
“Did you meet him?”
A voice with a soft echo asked the child.
“Yeah. He was a mess.”
The child chatted excitedly in his ear.
“But I can’t say he’s broken that much, can I?”
“…….”
Enoch France listened to the child instead of answering. The child, who was chattering, suddenly fumbled his face with a small hand.
“This is what Enoch looks like.”
Enoch laughed softly, not disliked by the wiggling little hands.
“I always wondered about it since Enoch’s eyes are so pretty.”
“Thank you, Lette.”
The child looked into Enoch’s eyes and smiled. Then, as if she suddenly remembered, she clapped with her cute hands.
“How about Chloe? Have you met Chloe?”
“Yes.”
Enoch replied calmly, nodding his head. Then the child’s eyes grew big.
“I envy you! How about Chloe? Does she still look pretty when she smiles like Enoch said?”
“Lady Garnet…….”
Enoch’s voice, blurring the end of his speech, subsided quietly.
“She needs time to laugh so that she doesn’t feel awkward, she still cries a lot.”
Then the child’s eyes drooped.
“That’s so sad.”
The child murmured in tears of sorrow. Then Enoch stroked the child’s soft silver hair with one hand and whispered affectionately.
“But Lette will make her laugh.”
As if the words were magic spells, the child clenched her fists and shouted bravely.
“Yes! Lette will make Chloe happy!”
“It’s really great, Lette.”
Enoch walked leisurely with the child in one arm. The child buried her head on his shoulders, touching Enoch’s sparkling hair under the moonlight.
“What should we do now?”
“I don’t know.”
Enoch France’s lips, which were gently pulled upwards, answered by drawing a bright smile.
“Everything, as Lette wishes.”
