My Dream is to Get My Own House - Chapter 90

Episode 90

As soon as I saw the people breaking down the castle gate from outside the castle, my first thought was this:

“Mung Mungi, that rascal. Did he come to disturb my honeymoon?”

Those criminals are for real!

Filled with anger, I tried to open the window.

“Quickly open the window and shout to drive them away.”

But as I was about to open the window, my heart started throbbing.

“Ah, what is this?”

My heart had been pounding continuously since earlier.

Should I go back to Dylan?

Should I tell him that I’m not feeling well?

With unsteady steps, I opened the door.

After exiting the empty corridor, I sat down on the stairs, trying to cool down my heated body.

Sitting on the stairs, I closed my eyes to relieve the feeling of darkness in front of me.

At that moment, Claude began to rampage in front of Grand Duke Castilla’s residence.

“Clearly, it’s the master! She must have seen me! And then she left disappointed because I couldn’t break this door!”

Mung Mungi gave a cold retort.

“Is Claude’s vision messed up? How do you see that? It’s an illusion.”

“…Gi-ma race?”

“If you can’t understand, just stop.”

Behind Mung Mungi, Duke Saboia snapped the castle gate.

Crack!

“I’m sure my granddaughter saw me. It seems right that she turned away disappointed.”

“…?”

“I couldn’t stand it any longer and gave it strength, then it broke.”

…It’s really strange!

Anyway, the castle gate of the Grand Duke Castilla’s residence, which hadn’t been opening until now, was slightly ajar.

Mung Mungi grinned as he looked at the slightly opened gate.

“Looks like only Mung Mungi can go in here.”

As soon as those words were heard, there was another loud noise.

In the same way, Claude, who had been glaring at the window of the Grand Duke’s residence, got excited and broke the castle gate… the wall next to the gate collapsed with a massive sound.

“Huh, Grandfather.”

“Just double the compensation next time.”

“It’s an installment payment. Mung Mungi guarantees it, and anyway, it’s because he released the curse, so you don’t need to compensate even if it breaks…”

With that last word, everyone laughed with satisfaction.

When they thought everything was accomplished.

“Hu, huk!”

At that moment, Mung Mungi knelt on the ground and murmured.

“Something’s strange.”

…?

“We have to get in as quickly as possible! The obsession husband phase is starting!”

‘The obsession husband phase is starting,’ it was an utterly unbelievable prophecy.

Mung Mungi ran at bullet-like speed.

Duke Saboia and Claude were also rushing in without paying attention to the prophecy.

Meanwhile, Dylan was in the garden, lost in thought.

Ishael gave a no-approach order.

As an intense FM, he followed her orders. 

Inside the garden, covered in deep darkness, he looked at the glass flowers and pondered, “What conclusion will she come to…?” 

As someone inexperienced in emotions, he couldn’t interpret the last look in her eyes.

“Don’t follow me!”

That’s why he didn’t follow her. 

He only tilted his head like a puppy with its tail tucked between its legs. 

“I need some time to sort out my thoughts,” she had said.

Dylan stared into the empty air. 

“I’ll wait here quietly.” 

But it became boring. 

The time that was once filled with Ishael was now completely empty. 

Without Ishaeli, Dylan felt insignificant. 

However, Ishaeli could exist strongly even without Dylan. 

But can she accept her cursed existence as the “Grand Duke Castilla”? 

Dylan closed his eyes as if praying, and then opened them again.

But as the restless time passed, he couldn’t just stay inside the garden any longer. 

Eventually, he couldn’t bear it any longer and walked through the corridor towards a small room. In the past, it was a path he loathed. 

But now, it became a joyful walkway solely because Ishael was inside.

As he approached, he couldn’t even hear the sound of someone breathing. 

He narrowed his eyes. 

“Has she gone out for a moment?” 

With the instincts of a knight, he lightly scanned the surroundings. 

There were no signs of intruders. 

If someone had used teleportation magic or invaded the castle, he would have surely known. 

Moreover, it had only been about 10 minutes since they parted ways. 

It was a relatively short time. 

“Maybe she went out for a walk.”

So, until she came back, the only thing he could do was tidy up this room. 

While looking around the empty room, Dylan tilted his head in confusion. 

The <Travel Journal> was spread out haphazardly on the floor. 

As he tried to organize the papers, Dylan paused for a moment. 

Ishael’s neat handwriting caught his eye.

[The first day of the journey

On the way, riding a carriage on a street filled with sunlight.

Dylan’s cheek was illuminated by the dazzling sunlight.

And…]

Dylan blushed. 

He pressed down with force, and the <Travel Journal> was slightly crumpled. 

“This is why she didn’t want to show it to me.” 

Blushing, he read the content of the <Travel Journal> word by word.

“…Dylan is really handsome,” he read. 

His face turned red. 

He held the journal tightly, and for a moment, couldn’t stop himself from flipping to the next page. 

He knew he should stop, but he just couldn’t.

[It was a very sunny day. It was a day when I could feel Dylan’s affection. When he got rid of the swindlers for the territory people, Dylan looked really cool.]

Yes, until now, it seemed like Ishael liked me. 

Baseless hope began to sprout in his heart. 

Perhaps she would definitely accept him with the unwavering hope he had.

“Dylan seems to like me. At least ‘right now,’ that is. I don’t know exactly how long Dylan’s feelings will last.”

He quickly read the next sentence.

“In truth, it’s a bit scary. Honestly, I haven’t experienced someone’s love much… I wonder what will happen from now on.”

As he read Ishael’s <Travel Journal>, a subtle feeling arose in his heart.

“I wonder what will happen from now on…”

Naturally, they would continue their ‘lovey-dovey’ honeymoon life. But just then…

“Dylan is Dylan… He thinks about my feelings. At times like that, I even want to run away from my own feelings.”

Run away? He felt a shiver down his spine.

The last line had only one sentence.

“…Should I run away, for real?”

After that, there were no more words. 

Dylan’s senses sharpened. 

He had the keen instincts of the strongest knight. 

He was more aware of Ishael’s presence than anyone else. 

But… there was no sign of Ishael’s presence nearby.

In a hurry, he opened the door and stepped into the corridor. 

Just then, he heard a commotion, not Ishael’s voice but the voices of three strangers.

“Ishael!”

“Diana!”

“Contractor Sister!”

The voices shouldn’t be heard inside the castle.

“…?”

With a puzzled expression, he turned his back. 

He could see three faces beyond the stairs. 

The solemn expression that was usually on the face of Duke Saboia was gone, now replaced with a hurried look as he scanned the surroundings. 

Claude’s face turned bright red as he looked around anxiously. 

And there was Mung Mungi, seemingly as cheerful as if she had come to disturb their honeymoon.

“Why are you looking for my wife?”

Rather than a residential intrusion, now the most reasonable concept came to mind.

Claude let out a wry laugh as he replied, “Apologies for the residential intrusion. It’s urgent.”

Dylan looked sternly at Duke Saboia.

The Duke, with an anxious expression, whispered, “I’m truly sorry. I’ll compensate you. But, where is our child?”

“Why are you looking for your child here?”

In response to Dylan’s questioning gaze, Duke Saboia spoke in a low voice, “Because Ishael is my granddaughter, Diana.”

Who was whose granddaughter?

Dylan’s eyes filled with subtle astonishment.
