I Don’t Want This Reincarnation

Chapter 302



As I got on the carriage and spoke, Ha Tae-heon quietly nodded.

“Still, when we are all together, my heart is at ease.”

Park Geon-ho, Kwon Jeong-han, and Min Ah-rin were under mental control, but if Cheon Sa-yeon and Ha Tae-heon were by their side, they would be safe. With Woo Seo-hyuk by my side, I also relieved my worries.

‘Now, we just need to find Kim Woo-jin and Fox.’

After the wedding, it was clear that the Cinderella fairy tale would end.

In the current situation, it was uncertain whether a new fairy tale would begin or whether we would meet the Praus Cult, but it was better to meet the last two faster.

“I’m going first. If you find Kim Woo-jin, please contact me anytime.”

“I will.”

As soon as I said goodbye, the carriage departed. After the long line of knights following me, Ha Tae-heon’s figure faded away.

“I’m glad you can meet the person you love again.”

As soon as I took my eyes off the window, Woo Seo-hyuk, who was sitting across from me, spoke to me.

The person you love. It was a lie I told him, but it was really exaggerated. I smiled awkwardly.

“Yeah, well. How long will it take to get married as soon as possible?”

“The Prince’s wedding is a big event in the kingdom, so there are many things to prepare. We will have to celebrate it grandly. It will probably take about two months.”

“What? Two months?”

I was worried that I wouldn’t have time to find Kim Woo-jin if I got married too soon, but it was two months at the earliest. I was rather bewildered in the time period that exceeded expectations.

We couldn’t be stuck here for two months without knowing what was going on outside of space.

There were even dozens of innocent people trapped here. Considering the shock that the victims who would live for two months without knowing anything would receive later…

‘Not for two months.’

I had to cut the time somehow. Ten days seemed appropriate.

I quickly rolled my head and began to persuade Woo Seo-hyuk.

“Do we need to make it grand?”

“Of course. It’s the Prince’s wedding, not anyone else’s, so if it’s done roughly, there will be a lot of problems.”

“How grand would it be if you said that? After all, the other person is a man, there would be no way we could do that.”

“That…”

“It doesn’t have to be grandiose and preparation can be simple. Can’t you reduce it to ten days?”

“……”

Woo Seo-hyuk, who heard my words, made a strange expression just like the last time.

“Are you sure you want to marry that man so soon?”

“Oh, what…”

Even though I wasn’t ashamed of that misunderstanding anymore, it was still not easy to look into Woo Seo-hyuk’s eyes because a lie was a lie.

As I slowly turned my gaze and nodded my head, Woo Seo-hyuk let out a small sigh.

“I understand. It’s a rare request from Prince, so I will find a way.”

“Thanks.”

Woo Seo-hyuk said he would look for it, not anyone else, so it was worth looking forward to.

As I looked out the window in relief, I noticed that the scenery outside had a different atmosphere from the streets I had ever seen.

“Wait, what is that?”

I could see people gathered in front of buildings with black cloth hanging out of the windows. Woo Seo-hyuk, who followed me out the window, said in a calm voice.

“It is a slave merchant.”

“Slave… merchant?”

“Yes. Come to think of it, today is the day of the slave market that happens once every two or three months.”

A market for buying and selling slaves. This didn’t come out in the fairy tale.

As Woo Seo-hyuk explained, there were really young children or people trapped in the wooden cage that looked between the crowd. My face contorted in disgust.

“They won’t come to the carriage. Don’t worry.”

“Yeah…”

Indeed. This was a created world and I didn’t want to cause trouble because it would end when I and Ha Tae-heon got married.

However, it wasn’t easy to take my eyes off the weary slaves. Those slaves would be ordinary people who visited the art museum or the auction house in real life. They had a terrible experience because of the Praus Cult.

Because the road was narrow, the moving speed of the carriage was significantly slowed down. As I watched the slave market passing by the window, I noticed that among the many slaves treated as spectacles, there was an unusual redhead.

“…what the, Kim Woo-jin?”

I quickly got up from my seat and leaned close to the window. The man sitting on the dirt ground with his neck tied with thick chain was definitely Kim Woo-jin.

In front of Kim Woo-jin, a fat man was standing with a black whip. Immediately recognizing the unpleasant air, I hurriedly opened the carriage door.

“Prince!”

Without hesitation, I jumped out of the moving carriage and landed on the ground, raising my head.

When I saw the man lift his whip towards Kim Woo-jin, I immediately used my wind ability. It was a distance I could never reach without using my ability.

I was caught between the man and Kim Woo-jin in an instant by the power of the wind and held Kim Woo-jin in my arms. At the same time, with a sharp noise, a burning pain spread from the forehead to the shoulder and back.

“Fu, fuck it! What are you?”

I sent Kim Woo-jin, who was surprised, behind me and stared at the man with a whip. My left vision was stained red with blood dripping from my forehead, perhaps it had been torn.

The man who made eye contact with me trembled and stepped backwards.

“Prince!”

“My God, Prince! Blood!”

Woo Seo-hyuk and the knights, who stopped the carriage, rushed here. Hearing the shout, the man and onlookers murmured in astonishment.

“Wa, Prince…”

“That man, did he whip the Prince just now?”

“Prince was protecting the slave…”

Woo Seo-hyuk approached me through the crowd, took out his handkerchief, and wiped the blood running down my cheek.

The knight commander, who had been glaring at the man who had his whip taken away by the knight and forcibly kneeled, said.

“We must kill this insolent man now, Prince!”

At those words, the man who had been trembling with his head bowed and opened his mouth with a very rigid voice.

“I, I apologize. I didn’t know you were the Prince and I…”

“Shut up! A lowly person dares to harm a precious person, even if we behead your head right now on this spot…!”

“Stop it.”

Woo Seo-hyuk took a handkerchief and wiped my face, stopping the knight commander, who was eager to swing his sword right away.

“Instead of asking for a crime, I want to take this slave. It’s possible, right?”

“But Prince!”

“Of, of course! If you spare my life, I will give you anything.”

“One is enough.”

I also wanted to kill the man. The thought of putting the chain around Kim Woo-jin’s neck or trying to wield a whip raised my anger so deep that my heart burned hot.

But in the end, that man was also a victim of mental control. No matter how much the role of an extra in the fake world was, if his head was cut off, he would die. So I barely swallowed the fire that reached the tip of my neck.

“Kim Woo-jin.”

Kim Woo-jin, who looked at me with a lost mind, blinked at my call.

Kim Woo-jin’s condition, seen up close, was worse than I expected. His clothes were old, dirty, and dusty here and there, and there were many minor scratches. I breathed out the rage that had risen again and quenched it.

‘I can’t see Fox.’

Kim Woo-jin’s clone and Fox went together, so I expected them to be together. Unfortunately, it was fortunate that Kim Woo-jin was saved.

“Come here. Come with me.”

“……”

Kim Woo-jin, who hesitated as I held out my hand, carefully grabbed it. I clasped his familiar hand tightly.

* * *

“The wound is not serious.”

The royal healer, who had looked after the wounds from the whip, wrapped the bandage up for the last time.

Even though I was hit with a whip wielded by an adult man with all his might, it was thanks to my A-rank combat body that I only ended up with such injuries. If I were an ordinary person, my skin would have cracked or my flesh would have split.

Putting on the white shirt I had taken off, I recalled Min Ah-rin’s ability. That’s too bad. If Min Ah-rin had been by my side without her mental being controlled, I would have been healed in an instant.

As soon as I confirmed that the healer was leaving the room, I delivered the letter I had written in advance to Woo Seo-hyuk.

“As soon as the sun comes up, give this to my marriage partner whom I met earlier.”

The letter contained information that I met Kim Woo-jin safely and how long it took to get married.

“If he gives a reply, get it right away.”

“Yes.”

About the time I was finished talking with Woo Seo-hyuk, the door opened and Kim Woo-jin came in.

After washing his body thoroughly with the help of the servants, Kim Woo-jin, who changed his clothes and received treatment, looked much better.

“Kim Woo-jin, are you okay? Did you receive any treatment?”

“…yes.”

When I got closer and asked, Kim Woo-jin, who was watching me and Woo Seo-hyuk, reluctantly answered.

Seeing that, the frustration came rushing in. The kid isn’t like this. I was more eager to use my intervention ability than ever before.

Don’t tell me he had to repeat this situation every time another fairy tale started? I was tired just thinking about it and sighed, but Woo Seo-hyuk, who was watching me and Kim Woo-jin, opened his mouth.

“If you are going to make that slave as a servant, I will start training him tomorrow.”

“What? No, I…”

Calling him a servant. Kim Woo-jin? In bewilderment, I shook my head unconsciously and Woo Seo-hyuk tilted his head as if puzzled.

“I thought that you would use him as a servant because you protected him and even gave him a name.”

“It’s true that I brought him here to stay. But it’s not that all.”

Kim Woo-jin was a good cook, good with his hands, and knew a lot of things, so even if he wasn’t a servant, he would be able to do other things.

The world would end after I got married anyway, so it would be okay if he didn’t work and keep him by my side.

“…I understand. First of all, it’s late at night, so it would be better to arrange the rest tomorrow.”

“So is my opinion.”

There had been too many incidents from early morning until now. I was tired because I couldn’t sleep well yesterday.

“I’m going back now. Take a rest.”

After Woo Seo-hyuk left the room with silence, I saw Kim Woo-jin following and quickly grabbed the guy’s arm.

“Why are you following him?”

When I caught Kim Woo-jin, both Kim Woo-jin and Woo Seo-hyuk were surprised at the same time.

“Prince, I prepared another room for this slave…”

“You don’t have to. He will just sleep here.”

Anyway, Kim Woo-jin and I had slept in the same bed several times so far, so there was nothing uncomfortable about it.

I just said something natural, but the reaction of the two was very strange. Contrary to Kim Woo-jin, who blushed, Woo Seo-hyuk frowned.

“Prince. Didn’t you tell me you were going to marry the man of the baron before?”

“Ung, I did.”

Why was marriage all of a sudden? Woo Seo-hyuk, who looked at me for a moment, who was puzzled, let out a deep sigh.

“…no. I think I misunderstood for a moment.”

“Ong?”

Misunderstood what?

“As you have ordered, I will only go away. Then later.”

“Uh-huh.”

Woo Seo-hyuk, who straightened his frown, left the room without any regrets. Kim Woo-jin and I were the only men, then I felt a little more comfortable.

“You’re tired, right? Let’s go to sleep.”

“……”

I was exhausted because of so many things I went through today, but I was very glad to be able to meet Kim Woo-jin.

To fit my status as a prince, the bed was large enough for ten adults to roll around and sat down. With a bed this wide, I would be able to sleep comfortably even if I lay next to him. Above all, with Kim Woo-jin, it seemed like I could sleep well unlike yesterday.

“What are you doing standing there? Come here.”

I beckoned to Kim Woo-jin, who was restless near the door. Kim Woo-jin, who had hesitated for a while, walked slowly with a determined expression on his face.

Kim Woo-jin’s face, standing in front of me, was so red that it could be seen at a glance. What’s wrong with him?

“Kim Woo-jin?”

Kim Woo-jin, who had closed his lips and blinked his eyes, began to unbutton his shirt with trembling hands. I was speechless at the amazing sight.

‘What the hell, crazy…’

Why is he really like this?
