Chapter 27-1
In fact, even in the official setting, Otto de Scuderia was a character who couldnt be labeled as anything but handsome.
If only he was a decent person, he would have been a top-tier, handsome and respectable man that could easily fit within the fingers of one hand throughout the continent.
But due to the curse of Wrenched B**tard, Otto lost a lot of weight, which only further emphasized his good looks.
With his weight loss, his facial features became even more distinct, and his skin became pale like porcelain due to his deteriorating health. Now, Ottos charm as a Frail pretty boy exuded from him.
And if Olives makeup was added to the mix?
Wow.
Otto exclaimed as he looked at himself in the mirror.
How does it look? Do you like it?
Olive asked eagerly.
I-its amazing?
Olives makeup skills were amazing. It wasnt just caked-on cosmetics.
With just a few touches, Olive emphasized Ottos facial features and jawline, making them even more distinct and natural-looking. Olive also matched the skin tone and lip color perfectly, adding another layer of upgrade to Ottos charm.
As expected, the head maid of the Arad Empire was different no matter what.
Despite her appearance as a barbarian warrior, Olives makeup skills were almost on the level of art.
Otto was convinced that even if Olive were to work as a makeup artist, she would still be famous.
Incredible skill you have. Im impressed, said Otto.
Its a piece of cake for me, Olive smirked. But Of course, its not to my taste, though.
Excuse me?
Theres no masculinity in it! What kind of male doesnt have any masculinity? Its an insult to manliness! What kind of man is it without beard and chest hair, all weak and feeble like a woman?
As a barbarian, Olives taste was very strong.
When your body gets better, bulk up. Got it?
Yes, maam Otto answered obediently, feeling intimidated by Olives sternness.
If he angered her, his spine might snap in half
Otto didnt want to die.
***
Ottos handsomeness spread throughout the entire royal castle in no time.
Have you seen him? Im so excited
How could he be so handsome? I want to hug him.
Who knew His Majesty was such a beautiful man?
I want to hold him and caress him.
Although it was a matter of taste, Otto, who had transformed into a weak and fragile young man, received the attention of all the maids.
With his handsome face and fragile charm, the blond man aroused all the maternal instincts and protective instincts of the women.
Where are you going?
Hunting.
Otto replied to Camilles question.
Hunting Are you going hunting? But youre not dressed for hunting
Ah.
Otto frowned, as if he was frustrated.
How do you even survive wearing clothes so tight?
Huh?
Who goes hunting dressed like this? Hunting! No way? Going out and trying to meet and talk to as many women as possible, is that what you mean by hunting?
Do you have to express it so harshly?
After avoiding women for so long Are you regretting it now that you?
I dont want to die, but thats right. Ah! Just stop talking already!
Otto grumbled and dressed up nicely before leaving the palacealthough it was more like a palace in name only.
Then he started wandering around the busiest streets in the kingdom.
I greet His Majesty the King.
I greet His Majesty the King.
The people recognized Otto and showed respect.
Im just here checking on the peoples livelihoods, dont worry about the people, and do what you usually do. he told his knights who were accompanying him.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Otto then started to wander around as if he was really checking on peoples livelihoods.
What is he thinking? A person who will die in three days has no reason to check on the peoples livelihoods.? Camille was going crazy as he watched Otto.
Then, a beautiful flower seller dressed in a red cloak approached Otto.
Buy some flowers. Flowers. I have beautiful roses, she said.
She wore a hooded cloak, so her face was not entirely visible, but her silhouette alone suggested that she was a great beauty.
Flowers Looks like you chose the wrong place.
In the poor kingdom of Iota, it was extremely rare for anyone to buy luxury items like flowers.
Moreover, it was currently winter.
As seasons were seasons, it was inevitable that the price of roses would be high during this time.
Roses were flowers that bloomed from late spring to mid-summer and it was not easy to see them during the cold season like now.
And Camilles keen insight did not miss it.
Wait, roses? In this winter? Not even in a big city, but in this countryside?
It was definitely a strange thing.
In the case of powerful countries, they had magic greenhouses that allowed them to grow crops regardless of the season. Even if it was a small amount, of course, it was impossible to cultivate them in large quantities.
However, it was impossible to see crops that didnt match the season in countryside, like Lota Kingdom.
This was because, its difficult to keep It fresh even if they were imported.
Something is definitely strange.
Camille kept a close eye on the woman selling roses.
Meanwhile,
Oh! Its snowing!
Oh my! Its so pretty!
At the moment when the snow began to fall heavily,
Huh? Its a Rose! Roses!
Otto discovered a woman selling roses and moved towards her.
Your Majesty.
Camille blocked Otto from approaching her.
Theres something strange about that woman selling roses. Dont get too close.
Thats my style, isnt it?
Excuse me?
I found my ideal woman here.
What on earth?
Angela.
.!
Its her! The witch, keep quiet and follow me. Put on a act If necessary
Otto whispered in Camilles ear and started to approach the woman selling roses.
